In l*s'!2 Jud-r*- Thompson, then a younç* man,.w-»«« *»{»;-'.inte*¡ a Judge-of »he ¿upreme Court c«;
N^ew.York, during the í_drniriií«*r8ri'«n of G^vG+or¿e Cliri'on. H.~ occupied a Peat there 17
yotira, ai.d during that time, with Kent, Living-sron, «"»pencer, Van Ness, and Platt, contributedh¡9 share to make the Judiciary of New.York i!.lustrioua. In ¡814, when Chief Justice Kent be-came Chancellor Kent. Judge Thompson was
placed at thu head of the Court, and when we saythat with Kent for his immediate predecessor andSpencer for his bucce.ssor, his réputation did not
Buffer by his elevation, we give him yreat praise.In 1618 President Monroe appointed hint Secre¬
tary of the Navy to c-ucceod Mr. Crotvninshield,and in that station he waa associated wilh .Messt».Adams, Crawford, CaJhouu, and Wirt as the con¬
stitutional advisers of the President.In 1823 he resigned his place in the Cabinet.
and was elevated to a scat on the bench of the
Supreme Court of the United States, an the nue-
cesBor of Judge Livingston, deceased. On thatbench for a long period of years he was worthilyassociated with Judges Marshal,and Washington,and Story, and took an active and able part inthe settling of tho»e grc;;t principles which have jbeen discussed by thai Court for twenty years past, j
In 182Ó he was an unsuccessful candidate tor
Governor of the State of New.York in oppo. isition to Mr.Van Buren and Solomon Southwick,when Mr. Van Euren was elected by a pluralityvote.
Judge Thompson waa a Democrat m the sense
in which that term was understood till the Demo,cratic party, to which he had always belonged,adopted the principles of high prerogative and
Strong executive Uovernnient which alienated so
many emiuent Demócrata, and finally over- jwhelmed the party in 1640 as similar principles jhad ruined the Federal party in 1800.
During an unusualiy long public career it was Ihis distinguished privilege always to ha~e been.one among men of rsmirkable ability in theireminent «station**, and to have tnjoyed a reputa- Ition free from suspicion. i
He war. a :n¿n of the simplest and loast pre*.tending manners, and hi» unassuming dignity of !deportment v, as in perfect keeping with the Doricchastencss and freedom from ornament.the
quiet firmnes:; and love of justice which charac¬terized him. Ills prompt straightforwardnesswaseomotimCB mistaken for rudeness by thoso who
did not know him to be really and truly a kuidhearted gentleman.
There are various surmises already aboutthe City Hall as to who will be Appointed to fillthe vacancy on the Bench of the Supreme Court.Among the most prominent of the names we haveheard mentioned are those of His Honor JudgeBirrs, of the District Court ; John C. Spencerand Judge Tallmame. The latter gentleman,late a highly distinguished Judge on the Benchof the Superior Court of this City, is said to boon terms of personal intimacy with the President,and his appointment would not be unexpected.Wc have also heard Daniel Wlestch, Geo.Wood and Hon. Green C. Bronson named..John Sargent of Philadelphia is also spoken of, a
gentleman every way qualified for the station ; butthe man whom we would suggest, is the Hon.Gclian C. Vkrpla.nck of this city, a gentlemannot only of eminent lega! and literary acquiren.ents, but with a character pure and unblem¬ished, a mind trained to el*»se aud accurate
thought, careful -mri industrious in the i?;v<«t.ti_u.tion ofnil tibftt/tct and 'titric-ite truths.ho wouldut one*' bnn«£ t<» the disch-jrjje of hi»? duties as one

But auer all, from presentindicntions, it seems to us most probable that the
appointment lies b-rweeu Mr. Spencer and the
Hon. D. B. Talmadge.
O" In yesterday's Tribune we stated that Mr.Willis hed sued the Boston Transcript for libel.W-*. saw it so stated in another paper, but find :t
ie an error. The Portland Tribune is the pane:sued. A refutation of thv lib-?! has been sent on
to the Portland Advertiser, we understand. W«.shall try to give place to it in our columns.

Mr. Dana of N. Y. this morning gave notice
A a bill to abolish the Franking Privilege, to farna it is extended to Members of Congreca, aucito modify the Raies of Postage. I find, on in»tjairy of ."Mr. D. that hi- bill now contemplatesthe case of Members oí" Congress only, and docsnot extend to the Rates of Postage generally, I.lave a ho;>e that he may extend it when he in.troduces hi, bill.The H-u_»_ wasted over two hour, this morn-
¡Dg en t!ie proposition to print 3,000 copies of thePresident's Message in the German Language, towhich was added a proposition to print 2,000 inLho French. The proposition was zealously ad-«.?o-.ated by Messrs. C. J. Lngersoll and Rajiseyof Pa. and ably opposed, among others, by Me?£r3.J. QtrtxcY Adams and D. D. Baknakd. It wasfinally nailed to the table by the casting rote ofthe Speaker. Yeas 86 , Nays 85.
HCBRAH FOR THE TARIFF !Mr. Rhett of S. C. offered a resolution in¬
structing the Committee of Ways and Means to
report a bilí repealing the present Tariff, and en.
acting instead one based on strictly Revenueprinciples, the average being 20 per cent. Ob-jection being made to the introduction of thisresolution at present, (petitions- being in order,}Mr. Rhett moved the suspension of the Rule.a*id on this qncsrion the Yea-? and Nays wereieraanded and ordered: ¥<.__, seventy-seven;Nays, ont hundred and ten; nearly all the VanB_._.«_ Members from New-York, New-Jersey.Pennsylvania, and Ohi*). as well as those fromC inesticut, Massachusetts and Vermont, votingagainst suspending the Rule, and thus indirect!}in f-ivo" of sustaining the present Tariff. Messrs
j Beardsley, C. J. lngersoll, Wilkins, and R. D.Davis.all the Northern Van Buren leaders.voted against Mr. Rhett and in favor of the Ta.riff. I have no doubt, however, that the majorityof the House will sustain a less manly and
.*traigh*-.iorward attack on the Tariff. h. o.mi-i -
O* The Ohio Whig State Committee has ap.j poir.ied Wednesday, the 10th drty of January1 next, s the ¿ny for holding a State Conventionat Columbas for the purpose oí choosing suitablecandidates 'or Governor and Electors of Presi-dent and Vice President, for appointing two Del-
¡ egates to the Baltimore Convention, ami to take
step, for a thorough and complete organizationj ol the Whig Party in Ohio preparatory to the
great political contest of 1614.
O" Clï: Bcll's Concert at the Tabernacle lastevening, was another jam. ile lias turned thecity upside down with his fiddle, and now that heis going away, wc shall doubtless be favored withmore impartial criticism of his certainly wonder-J"ul playing. We wish him, wherever he goes, thesame favor which our citizens have shown himin no stinted manner.
Stealing..Wc often sec articles ofourown putin other paper«» as original matter, and it sometimesvexes u_ to be treated so cavalierly and some-
times amuses us. But when we _a\v the other
day in a religious paper, the New-England Pu.ritan, our condensation of the Post Office andNavy Reports, with our condensed .portionsleaded as editorial, we confess wc were a littlesurprised. How a paper professing such strict
integrity could lead a line of matter not its own,without giving credit for it, strikes us as ratherstrange.and to open the article by quoting our
own language, " The Report of the PostmasterGeneral is very long, and hence wc condensethose portions that are of less importance," israther t«.o cool. To hide the theft, or to escapethe charge of it, the first part of one report andthe latter part of the other arc cut off.
53" The Troy Whig gives the following -ketchof Mr. Copp, now under arrest in this city, on
suspicion of having robbed or connived at therobbery of the trunk on board the steamer Uuoa :
Mr. Ccpp is anativeofWakefield, New-Hamp¬shire, and has long been a resident of this city..Ho was for several year, a clerk in the broker'soffice of Calrlcr ¿c Co. which he left to enter intothe servico of llarnden & Co. When Harnden«x Co. withdrew from the river, Mr. Copp. in
i connection with Mr. Pullen, established Pullen_t Copp's X. Y-, Albany and Troy express.anagenc.V which has enjoyed the unlimited conti-
\ deuce of the bhnk directors and businessmen ofthe cities which it connects.
During the present year, Fomeroy & Co. en-tered into an agreement with Pullen »__ Copp, bythe term«, of which the latter were employed at«
the mesaenj-ers of the former between Albanyand New-York.transacting «'it the same timethe business of their New.York and Troy ex¬
press on their own account.Mr. Copp has always been considered a man
of the stnetebt integrity; as remarkably cau¬
tious, and particularly careful of all property en-tru-sted to his charge. In this community no
suspicion of a want of honesty rests upon him.In the unfortunate transaction now under notice.be is regarded only as unpardonably and unaC-
countabiy negiectiui of the interest of hi. em-
j ployers.-.« *g_.¦ «n » ,-
