.JUDGE p. p. BARBOUR.

Judge Barbour, of the Supreme Court
Of the United States, who retired 10 his
chamber in his usual health, on Wednes-
day night, was found dead in his bed on
the morning of Thursday. He appeared
to have died without struggle. His sud-
den deceasc is ascribed to an affection OF
the heart.
The last rites were paid to the remains
Of this excellent man, to-day at the Capt.
tol in the chamber Of the Supreme Court.
The service was rendered most impress
sive by the exalted worth Of the deceased
the dignity of the presence-the Presi.
dent, Vice President, Senators. Represen-
tatives. and Judges attending-the solem-
nifty of the place. and the simple but elo.
quent and most appropriate address OF the
Chaplain who oficiated.
There was never higher or more de-
served tribute paid to the dead than that
awarded to Judge BARBOUR from the very
tribunal in which he himself once sat-
Ii was but the echo of that which MIR. Ro.
ane had Just pronounced in the Senate
Chamber. and Mr.. Banks in the House,
and to which every heart responded that
surrounded his bier.
Judge BARBOUR had, from youth to age.
been versed in the busy scenes Of life
the polemics Of the bar-politics OF State
and National assemblies-the high trust
Of the judicial station.-in all that involves
the interests and passions of the world.
and yet he passed from It ''unspotted OF
the aporld." In every social and domrs-
tic relation, the current of his life ran
pure, and diffased happiness on all around
him. He was, in his principles, talents,
and attainments, his probity and benevo.
lcnce, fine exemplar Of that character
which raised his native State to such de-
served distinction among her sisters of the
Union. - g"
These considerations, which must make
sharpe, and deeper the first pangs felt in
his death by his family, will, in time, be
their greatest consolation. He will sur
vive to them in his character and in the
history of his country.-Globe.
