Judge Black,
Delaware County Democrat.

We lay before our readers the admirable and truthful delineation of the life and character of Pennsylvania's greatest statesman and model Democrat, ex-Judge Jeremiah S. Black, as published in the Philadelphia Times of the 23d ult., under its "White House Gallery." Judge Black is not a candidate for the presidency, nor is his name being especially urged by his friends for that position; yet it may with truth be said, that his nomination at the present juncture, by the Democratic national convention, would confer a greater honor upon the party, and more generally command the approbation of patriotic and thoughtful citizens, than that of any other man in America.
