The Citizens’ ticket will be voted exclusively in Allegheny county and the Independence ticket exclusively in Philadelphia. The former has en- dorsed the Republican state ticket and the latter the Democratic state ticket. IN our Historical Review in this issue will be found some sound advice as to the duties of a Judge, by that great judi cial light, Judge Walker, who sat upon the bench of this district at an early day.
