signalion Of The present able Professor now filled
with so much success and distinction in The per-
son of Henry ST. George Tucker II were need

ance of selecting an individual in allrespects able
10 fill that department with advantage TO the stu

What the writer of this article has already said,
is sufficient 10 indicate his opinion al least OF Mr..

tory encomium on Mr. Green. His humble OPT
Mons are moi swayed BY any personal cons,deTa-
lions on his part, nor dictated BY the unworthy
promplngs of any sinister molives-but from
conviction that il long life Of labor, and toll the
most incessan' and interchangeable, 10 qualify him
self for the Bar, the Judiciary, or the Law Pro-
iessorship, enliile one 10 favor or distinction,
then VIM Green deserves it.
While Mr. Green is not distinguished for his
powers as an advocate, or his forensic talents as
debater, vet as speaker at The Bar he is clear,
strong ant forcible;-cear in The statement oil his
propositions, strong and convincing in his argu-
ments, accurate and demonslratve in his dednc-
tons. In the Court of Appeals he has wrested
successfully with Chapman Johnson and others.
The writer Of This article (being member Of the
Bar himseli) listened with great pleasure and in
terest 10 the whole of the discussion in the celebra
ted chancery case Of Scott and Brooke at Culpe-
per Courthouse, abou, IL months ago. II was
