Ke I i -wuiu nave nau no more expeciauun ui a vacan- happening in that office, until a eek or two in any other office which was then filled audi not likely to become vacant. Mr. MeKinnev, when elected to fhat office, in Jan. ifcSO, was in a 'health as he had beenlin' Maj. Field was heie at the time the election i jook having come to the Territory during the preceding month, on business quite for eign to that of an office-seeker, and with the in tention of removing to this place with his famn ly March fotlotog.

Field's return. Mr McKmney died on rhe 43th. May.

1330 ahoiit a month after Field had lemoved to the Territory with hU family which fact, of itself, i sufficient to remove the idea that he had been sent for to fill the vacancy. Tiie urgency and amount of the business then pressing upon tlie Court more than one hundred Bills ol Review having been filed only a shoit lime previously, and all the ca-es on the d-vpiets of the Court requiring to bo prepared for the Jniv term of the omt, which was then near at hand made it necessary that the vacancy occasioned by Mr. McKinney's death should he filled without loss of time. No time was a (Toided even to ascei tain whom the Judges of the Court would recommend, much less the people of the Territory. The Acting Governor has frequently informed us, that, on hearing of the death of Mr.

McKmney. and in casting around among bis a -qnaintances, for a suitable person to fill the vacancy occasioned by his death, it occurred to him that Mj. Field was the best qualified of who would- probably be applicants. He knew him to possess the necessary qualifications for the offine, and that was pooi, had a large and growing family to support, and was out of fJP a.so considered the CWk of the Sopetior Court as mtreh an officer of the United States' as of the Territorial Comr, a large proportion of the important and responsible business his offu-e being of a Federal Mararter. Ho theref ire ropsidf redit to be his ifv give the appointment to a decided f.iend an) supporter of th National UuimisT Oion Me heijpved Field to be a min of this hatacter, and fo ted with fhP par.

as Judge Johnson was tl.p only Judge the Superior Court wluw ition be obtained in time, if be would see the Judge and procure his recommen-diuotr; and-if the duty of filling the vacancy devolved upon him, (the law of Cong, ess authorizing the Governor to fill vacancies not liaving then b-eu promulgated), would con- f-r the appiiintmeni upon him. This rccom meddaMon was obtained, (and chmfujly gweo; lir.ve i.equfntiy heard Judge Johnson asi- -eit), and the office accordingly; conferred on Mj. Field, as soon as the appoint iuen? could be made. It i also due to the cting Governor to staie 'lie that the individuals who were tinder-Mood to be applicants fr the office, were ranked as party men, and supported by thj parties into which the people of this Territory are said to he divided, so that he could not have given the office to one party without giving occasion to the other for charging him aiiB doing so from party motives.
