QFAll right, neighbor of The Kent

ahead.
[CTThe Centreville Times saws: "In-
fuenza prevails to considerable extent
amongst our citizens"
nrIn The Times we find the follow
ing account estng proceedings in
the G. AIMS Court.
AT the conclusion of the session of
Queen AIMS County Court on Wednes-
day last Col. R. B. Carmichael as the
representative of the Bar of this county,
rose, and after some eloquent and affect
ing remarks, presented the following adj
dress:

relations 81! si5tra hetwiNt the n"n,ters
of this Bar and of tins Court. The Bar
would not separate from the Court and
from each other, without rendering to
the Court, their testimony of respect
and appreciation.
With one of the members of the
Court, the Hon P. B. Hopper, former
relations are to be resumed. I he leave
the bar take of him is therefore merely
formal. 1t is however due that he should
receive from the Bar the testimony of
the respect and confidence he has ever
had an assurance of the same sentiments
in the relation hp is about to assume.
This testimony and this assurance we
cordially and sincerely tender him.
With another member of the Court,
not now present the Honorable John
B. Eccleston, our relations are but chan
ged, not broken. To him most cheer.
fully we say as much. We could not
say less.
The Honorable E. F. Chambers,
Chief Justice of this judicial District is
about TO take leave, without prospect OF
a renewal of former relations.
The occasion requires of our feelings
to say to him in words, that which our
altered position does not admit that we
may revive in action.
TO him we say, che possesses and
carries into retirement, the best wishes
of each individual member of this bar.
That he leaves with us the recollection
of a career on the bench, signslly dis
tinguished by promptness, energy, in
dustry, ability and probity."
Ifoccasions have occurred, when the
conflict of opinion sincerely entertain
cd and ardent!y expressed, has marred
the harmony which should animate the
relations of the bar and the bench to-
ward each other, these occasions have
been transient. No impression Of them
remains with the bar. We assume that
none exists in the feelings or recellec-
lions of the Court.
His Honor, Judge Chambers, will
please to bear along with him the assu-
rance that he has the approval of our
judgment, for the discharge OF his official
duties, and the best wishes of our hearts
for his future welfare.
The tribute is but words-it is all We
can give-it is simple but 1t is true.
That it may not pass away with the
breath that utters it, we ask that it may
be inscribed on the minutes of the
Court.
Judge Chambers then delivered an ell
oqurnt aid feeling address to the Bar in
reply to the resolutions and bid them an
afectionate farewell. Judge Hopper
also responded to that part Of the resou-
ions whlrii alluded to himself. and said
'jt' f.oer|o~"d most heartily the mer-
