greet that Judge Ruin. for many reasons, should have
resigned the distinguished position he occupies as
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and am fully
persuaded that this regret will be deeply felt through
the length and breadth of the State. He is we'll
known, and is universally admitted to be of
the abest jurists and most learned Judges of this
country. To eminent abilities in the discharge of his
official duties, he has united the utmost uprghness,
independence and urbaniy, and no man has left the
bench with spotless, pure and unim peachable
character. TO his other distinguished merits may
be permitted to parcularze that he has contributed
much towards infusng into the decisions of the Su-
preme Court high tone of moral feeling and sent-
ment, producing the most beneficial results. When
such man, uniting in himself all the high and emf
nent qualities necessary form and TO adorn the ju
dicia character reres from the bench, in the full pos
session of the vigorous intellect. the loss
not be otherwise than deeply fe and his place most
difficult to supply.
have known Judge Rufin for forty years, ac-
quaniance having commenced in 1912. Living re-
mo,ely from each other, cannot claim the honor of
being among the number of his most intimate
confidential friends but am happy TO say that the
kindest relations have always subsisted between US
without the slightest interruption, and in the retire.

remaining days may be peaceful and happy as his
past life has been eminently valuable to the State.

the most perfect equanimity. No man regrets more
than he does the vuPeration with which the charac

the late canvass. He reciprocates the feelings which
Gen. Pierce has repeatedly expressed for him during
