JUDGE R. H. MILROY.

Dr. Mai tin having withdrawn his name from the canvass for nomination for State ; Auditor, solely out of respect for Judge Mil- | roy and a desire for his success, Jeav s the j latter gentleman the only one in Northern Indiana spoken ot in connection with that | office. That the north-western portion of the State is entitled to the office, there can bo no doubt, and ns man can be found in the State more honest and capable than Judge Milroy . Honor, virtue and integrit, are personified in him. The Delegates from Jasper will press his claims vviili energy. We copy with approbation 111 o following letter, published in the Indianapolis Atlas, some two weeks ago: ConneßsVilLe, Jan. 11’. iB6O. ldd. Atlas: 1 notice an article in the Atlas, ol the 9th, Iroin u correspondent at Rensse- ! ier, inging the necessity of good and true men for the various offices to be filled by the people of this State at the October election. Ot the justness oi Ins reasoning I presume no Republican or honest voter wiil doubt. The claims he sets up for the N jrthwest part of the State cany with them a weight that should not be disregarded by the Republican State Convention. In the 9th District the pause ol freedom and free labor has many noble and efficient advocates, and the claims of Dr. Martin are no doubt truiv presented for the consideration of the Convention. There are other tried and true Republicans'ill the Northwest, whose streiunb, qualifications, and long-tried services in the cause of human rights, and in the cause oi their country, point them out as persons every way calculated to add moral force to the Republican cause in Indiana.. Of the numerous Republicans that inwhl be presented to the Convention for Auditor ol State, who possess the Jeffersonian qualifications, “honesty and capability,” 1 know ol none wnose name would meet a more hearty response by the people than Judge R. 11. Milroy, of Jasper county. Having volunteered in the service ot his country in the Mexican Wanjie was chosen to "Imffiiriand the Wabash Invincibles, and gallantly led them into that inhospitable clime, and won lor himself and his company distinguished honors. Raised up and tutored in tlTo very cradle ot Jeffersonian" Democracy, Judge Milroy, on the repeal of the Missouri Com promise, promptly and unequivocally took ground against its repeal, and has since proved himself one of tie* most efficient and untiring advocates ol the Republican cause in the Northwest. We are assured th;,t there is no man in the State that would make a better run ora more efficient officer than Judge Milroy. Equity. We copy the following notice of the Judge j from the Indianapolis Journal of yesterday | morning: ‘ j “Judge Milroy. —This gentleman, we see, is strongly recommended hy the people of Jasder county, and also in other parts ol the State, for the office of State Auditor. We don't think a better man, one more competent, or one who would add more strength lo the ticket, could be had for this office. We hope he will be nominated. The Judge, bv hi ; iufiuence, has ehinged the county in which he lives, Inun an Oid Line county to one strongly Opposition. Indiana.”
