It la net likely tbatttie Judges of our court, as nt present constituted, will ever arraign anybody before them for contempt; for it Is iueatlonable if any one will ever make such an exhibition of cpntempt of them and their jurisdiction us they scent te take delight in publicly and privately avowing that they feel for each ether. Within the present week Judge Livingston has taken occasion te publicly cburge his associate with falsi fying the record und te threaten him with disclosures which presumably he means te Intimate would scandnllze him ; while Judge Patterson has filed an opinion in which he charges that the effect of Judge Livingston's prescription of an affidavit te the liquor selleis is te promote purjmy, utiles the oath is se extrajudicial that te take it falsely would net be perjury. Tills recent out break of hostilities, or rather culmina tion of them in a public exhibition of Judicial Infirmities, is only thu expression of a condition of things that has prevail ed between them for years mid which li is been the scaudal of the profession and a source of deep mortification te the members of the bar who would prefer for everything that makes for the honor of the law -that the differences of the judges should net be paraded in full view of the public. By reason of these unhappy differences the bar bore is practically deprived of the benefit of a court in lane, the judges Beldom conferring and the lawyers and their clients never Retting nuythiug mero than the opinion of thu one or the ether of the judges who happens te write It ; and the oue who don't Is never hap pier, it seems, than when Ills brother scores another reversal by the supreme court. When there is a dispute as te which one is entitled te decide the case and write the opinion, as in thu Epbratu church case, and the assent of both Is Kqttisite te a decree ami neither will yield, the processes of the law are ex hausted, the objects for which courts are created are defeated and litlgauts are cheated out of their rights by the stub bornnessef the men. In the particular case, which lias made se much bad bleed between our judges, it is idle any longer te indulge in recrimination ai te their proportionate share of responsibility. Judge Patterson may or may net be right in his claim that, having been ilrst given the casote decide, lie should have been allowed te make the court's decree ; Judge Livingston may or may net be right in l.lscharge that .Tudge Patterson changed the decision of the case agreed upon in their couferenco at the instance of outsiders ', Judge Patterson mayor may net be reasonable in his eiler te call in a neighboring Judge te decide tin Isjub; .Judge Llviugsten mayor may net be Arbitrary in insisting that Judge Patterson should yield. Ujth are meas urably wieng in maintaining the dead lock, which either can with entire dignity break, by allowing a decree te be entered for tlie Kike of filial judgment, even against lii.s own judgment as gi eater judges have done before them aud ro re ro taiued the entire respect of thu bar and the community, who always admire real judicial qualities. It is said that when two goats meet en a pathway tee narrow ler mere than one te travel ever, the polite and mag nanimeus goat lies down and lets the ether walk ever lilm. When neither goat Is pelite nor masnanim m they stand there and leek at each ether until they have become objects et ridicule, nod then both have te tak the back track. A Suunu Opinion. The iVcic Jim thinks that the Repub llcuns who read Judge Patterson's Jan uary opinion, that tavern keepers should net be required te take the oath, made up for them by Judge Livingston, that they had net violated the requirements of tlielr previous liconse, wlil become speedily convinced thereby that .Tudge Patterson is net lit te be a ju Ige. We, however, me of the opinion that if netli ing worse than tills can bj laid :e Judge Patterson's charge, the lLJpuolieans may vote for him with a very Hear con science Fer that was a setm I position te take. Judge Livingston had no right te ask the tavern keepers t swear that they had net violated their licen. It was an extra-judicial and extra-reasonable oath. If the landlords had net observed their licenses thu constables should have leperted them ; and if the court wanted te convict them of selling liquor contrary te law, it should have sought the evidence in another way than by forcing it out of their own mouths. Judge Livingston undertakes inquisite rial metheds of legal procedure when he attempts te convict men by a forced con fosalen. It won't de in this latitude ; and Mr. Atlee, the Ar ie Jim'x candidate ferjudge, is net going te be helped te the votes et semiulu Republicans by its intimation that hu agrees with Judge Livingston that tavern keepers may properly be made te convict themselvc u by a judicial thumbscrew. Ir the estimate of Mr Hewitt, made in his speech the ether day, be n correct one, that half the alcohol made in tills country is employed in the arts, thete Is no geed icasen, certainly, for levying the tax of from three te four hundred per cent. that new Tails upon this product. Whatever may be thought of the policy of a whisky tax or of the internal rov rev rov enue syBlem us the method of levjing.lt, theie is no mero reason for imposing a , federal tax upon alcohol aud high wines used for medicinal, mechanical or art purposes, than tliere is for a like gov ernment tux en wheat or oil or ero or any ether product or the farm or mill. As It Is, any portion of the product of spirits which iu shipped abroad escapes this tax aud the foreigner gets an nrtl nrtl de, produced In this country, for from J8tei.'7 cents a gallon for which the American hits te pay from $1.03 te $1.17. In ether countries excise laws, the Jleceril tells us, discriminate between the iise.1 of spirits, aud surely our laws olieuld ilti.He even if tlie Internal revenuu eyfltem Is te be maintained. There is no geed ground for the discrimination of three or four hundred per cent, ngaiust the home censumer of nu article that outers be extensively into tlie mechanical arts. Mn.IIiESTAND wants a quiet little fight with Mr. smith, In which the news papers organs shall keep their hands off, and leave the contestants te their hand shaking nnt personal appeals te tlie poeplo. This will probably suit Mr. Smith, as he is nn adept In the line of work laid out. If Mr. Hiestaud can beat him at that game, he may consider himself a master of tlie art. We de net knew whether Mr. Smith, hewever. can rnuzzle tlie irrepressible Uelst, se as te indulge Mr. Hlestnnd in the quiet game of cards he prefers ; If lie cau, we are of opinion that he won't leso by it.

Judges Livingston ar.d l'attcrseu, of Lancaster, are only human, as are all judges, ai.d they will dittt-r like ether men ; but it would be seemingly mere considerate of the dignity due te the sanctuary of justice, for th'tu te held their consultations in private and net exhibit judicial spats en tlie bench. They have recently giveu several undignified displays of j idicul fwjieuty iu open court, well calculated te bring reproach upon tbe administration of justice. And it might be observed iu passing that judges who waut te write judicial opinions ler the newspapers, have jet te learn that there is a vast difference between stump speeches aud judicial dellverances, aud when the latter are degraded te tbe stand ard el the former, the courts in which sueh fautastle tricks are plajed must suffer creatly in publie confidence and resnect. Every such indecorous e-.lubitieu en the Laueaster bench will remind every citizen of the county that Judge Patterson is uew mveivcu iu a somewhat animated ceutcat for a ronemlnatiou, and as long as voters are bumau like judgeu, they will inebne te interpret such ostentatious dissent as he displayed en Thursday last, as playing for the political gallerns.
