"Policemen are being assassinated daily in New York. The Sea advocates a reform by changing the mode of selecting the judicial oiliuers who are playing into the hands of the lawless—reasoning thns :—

'~ The great obstacle in the way ofthis is the large in- fiuence which runans eserclee in litlcal shire. This power In thorougth understood y all candidates for

in vor. It is fully appreciated. Men who seek

pu lie 0 cc court the favor and support of the danger-

ous classes. Murderers understand very well that the

lace in which a friend is most valuable tothem is on the

t"och; and they spare noefl'ort to put and keep friends ere.

Every record of the cold blooded murder of e fhlthful police oflcer is a fresh argument mint our elective Judiciary. We had better look this mischief unitaron in the face and reform it."

Novs Ebony-0n Friday last, the Attorney General of Nova leotia tabled a lot of resolutions in the llouso of Assembly-to the effect that in proceeding with the business of the country, the Legislature did so under constraint from the Imperial Government.

No compromise will be accepted, as repeal alone will satisf them. This Is something like a resolution compared wit the milk and water afi'air of the Local Convention some days ago, and indicates that Nova Scotia is not going to tameiy sub- mit to tyranny and wrong.

A few doses of these noted Pills act magically In dispelling low spirits and repelling the covert attacks made on the nerves by excessive heat, impure atmospheres. over indulgence. or exhausting excitement. The most shat» tered constitution may derive benefit from IIolloway'e Pills which will regulate disordered action, brace the nerves, increase the energy of the intellectual faculties and revive the failing memory.
