May not Judge do likewise! We have
no distinctive class of lawyers for different
character Of suits. Why then, different
Judges! There is not the slightest neces-
sity for it.
Is there strong probability that the
Supreme and Vice Chancery Courts will
always be filled with men Of finer native
abilities than the Great Courts? We
think not But let US look at their histo-
Try. The present Chancellor, we will
admit, is a man al fair, but not Distinguish
ed talents. lie has given general salts
faction; but his predecessor, Judge 1ur-
Iner, was on the bench for years, and in
point of intellect and attainments he is not
equal to single CircuitIudge in the State.
Had c have desired it, we have no doubt
he could have been reelected, for he has
been since promoted higher. The first
Vice Chancellor is of but middling ability
and retired from office without leaving
behind him any monument of Intellectual
greatness, or judicial wisdom. Many OF
his decisions have been reversed. The
present Vice Chancellor has not yet held
a Court, but he is unknown to fame, and
comparison between him d Bennett, the
Judge of his circuit, we have no doubt
would be in favor of the latter.
Take, you please, any given number
of appeals from the Vice and Superior
Courts of Chancery, and from the com.
mon law docket of the Circuit Courts, and
we would venture any consideration, that
the former has been as often reversed as
the latter.
The salaries Of the Circuit Judges are
good; more than the best LAWYERS cannow
earn. Better talents upon the bench, may
be, therefore, hereafter expected.
We couldsa muchmore on this subject,
which is with us a fayorite one, but il
would extend this article to too great a
length.

winter. A. no time during the season, has
the sleighing been better than now. the late
snow storm was very extensive, doing
considerable damage to the shipping on
our coast. especially TO the eastward, several
distressing shipwrecks having been report

JUDGE KENT's OPINION.

A complaint having been preferred against

Jury Of the United States Ds,ric. Cou,t of
New York. Judge Ken. has given aa op.
inion, in which he says:
j consider the sounder opinion TO be,
tina, the jurisdiction Of the Naval Courts
Martial is in the case stated exclusive,
and .ha. the Courts of the United States of
civil jurisdiction, have no lawful cognixance
Of the case. Nor ought they to have upon
principles Of public policy, nor would they
have without fatally impairing the authority
character and decipline of the American
Navy. Courts Martial act under distinct
and peculiar code, and which lord Mans.
field termed q sea military code, which
the wisdom Of the wisdom Of ages had for.
med The act Of Congress Of 23d April.
1900 had digested and adopted that code,
II specified particular punishmen,s for par.
licular crimes, and declared further, that all
crimes committed by persons belonging 10
.he Navy, and not there in specified, should
be punished according 10 the laws and
customs in such cases at sea- This is
whs, Lord Mansfield had also declared,
when he obser, r,ed ihs. when man is
charged with an offence against the articles,
or when the articles are silent agains, the
ussges of the Navy, he could only be tried
by Court Martial In the naval public
service, commanders, must act upon del
icate suspicious, upon the evidence OF their
own eyes. They must give desperate CON.
msnds--Ihey must require inslaneous obedi.
ence.' A naval tribune only is capable OF
apprecia,ing all these circumstances. and
without that stern discipline and perfect
commance that the naval code requires, an
American man OF war would soon become.
