 TIE REMOVAL OF JUDGE RINco.-A more monstrous, absurd and selfish act, never em- anated from body of freemen.

 '''-''''s - ~ f.4yds Cazette

 While the foregoing is any thing but respectful to the Legislature 1t is jas what might have been eX- pected of he organ of party, the main feature ol whose creed is disrespect for the people and their representatives.

 In the first place. t is untrue. Judge Rngo was not removed. His term of office had expired before tbe Legislature met; and the vacancy had 10 be filled by a new election. There were several eandl- dates among them, Judge Johnson and Judge lSlh- go. \ n9iority-5i to 39-preIeFed Judge John son and elected him. Where is the wrong or mus tice in this: There were several other candidates tdemocrats too) Had they not tas much right e com plain at defeat, as Judge Ringo; And yet the Ga zette sees no hardship in their defeat. True, adge Ringo had filed the office for four years; but did that give him any right to fill it again' If so, his fllnr t second time, ought to establish his right to it for life, and perhaps entail it upon his family to the third generation. Any pre-eminent qualiii- cations either of personal professional character that Judge Ringo may possess over other gentle men, we are willing to leave unqaestioned and un- discussed and shall so leave them, unless forced to do otherwise; merely remarking, as we pass, thai an authority might be cited, in this connection, which the Gazette would not relish, and darc nol dispute. We mean the authority of its Hege tofd

 We are unwilling to discuss the qualifications oi Judge Ringo, because he is private citizen, and because We entertain for him personal respect and kind feeling. Il hereafter, he shall find himself the subject of newspaper criticism, we protest against being held responsible forany annoyance Ii may give him. He will owe 1t all to those who protesting to be his friends, would use him not on ly as means of complaint against the Democratic party, but for any other vile purpose, and then cas him aside, so soon as they could make no more capl- tai out of him. As we had recent occasion to re mark. we know no man whe-has= so much se-te pray to be saved from his friends.

 The eensure and abuse which the Gazette, at the bidding Of it's masters, may cast at the Legislature will, we apprehend, do but little harm, and less good. It is a Democratic Legislature; and that i: enough to ensure condemnation from the Bank or gan for all its acts fom the election of Chief Jus tice down to public printer-the last of which. i the truth were confessed is the subject of real dis satisfaction The Editor of the Gazette was no made public printer; and, like hungry calf Whil1 be chews the cud of disappointment, excites tht contempt of the public, by his ptiful bleatinss o complaint.

 We are ofopinion that the members of the Begis lature understand the interests and wishes of thei constituents and are both competent and determn ed to attend to them, in the way, by themselves deemed best with but little regard to the ridieulou. vaporing. or ptiful whining of the Gazette.
