The Proprietor has succeeded (from direc-

Oh and Lime so perfectly, that the taste Of
the Oil, which is naueseoUs TO persons gen.
orally, is entirely overcome, and it can be ta-

Prof Stone, is sufficient TO convince the most
skeptical The young lady was "a years OF
age.
"Her disease was one of unmixed phthiss,
which had been expected to terminate IN the
course of few months, fatally. The upper
part of both her lungs was filled with tuber-
cles; and in some places were beginning TO
soften, The case was evidently bad one.
The treatment of cod liver oil was at first
used, but without marked Improvement. The
phosphate of lime WINS then administered with
the oil. and the result. as in the case of many
others, was soon apparent. The patient was
rapidly getting well.

COURT OF CLAIMs-APPorNTME OF
JUDGE sCARBURGH.

The vacancy occasioned in the court of
claims by the declination of Judge Lumpkin of
Georgia has been filed by the appointment Of
Judge Scarburgh of Virginia
This appointment will, we doubt not, give
universal satisfaction. We copy from the
Washington Union the following sketch Of
Judge Scarburgh.
Judge Scarburgh is native of the eastern
shore of Virginia, and after having won for
himself high reputation as lawyer in that
ancient Commonwealth by long practice in her
courts, in 1874 he was elected by the general
assembly Of the State to Gil vacancy made by
the resignation Of the Hon. Thomas Ii. Bayly
as judge Of the then third judicial circuit The
same post had previously been held by the Hon.
Abel z. Upshur. It will not be regarded as
an undeserved compliment when we say that
Judge Scarburghs decisions are held by the
profession in as high esteem as those Of the
very distinguished gentleman we have last
named. In 1851 Judge s. was elected to the
law professorshp Of William a Mary College
by the visiters of that tme-honored institution
"a station he has held up to this period, and
one which had previously been adorned by the
names of Chancellor Wythe, st. George and
Beverly Tucker He has been highly success.
ful as teacher in the great science to which his
life has been devoted, as all can testify who have
had any acquaintance with the field of his
labors. r
Judge Scarburgh has never mingled actively
in party politics. nor held any merely political
office, State or federal. His mental training
has been entirely legal and judicial. When

From the Sentinel Of July
Territorial Appoin TIM ents.

Some days ago, we published an article under
the caption of False Rumors," in reference
to the rumored appointments Of Governor to
the Territories of Nebraska and Kansas We
regret to say that in the caption and editorial
and not Typographical error was committed
and that the important correction should be
made of substituting false" for "true." This
mistake into which we accidentally fell was
chiefly owing to the fact we thought what ought
to be done would be done.
Seriously, however, we look upon this whole
subject as passed. We do not withdraw a SEN
timent or word of the article to which we have
referred, but it is now effected, and beyond our
control, and we are willing to let it rest, and to
hope sincerely that the appointments may re-
suit benefcially to ALL 1t does not admit of a
doubt, that if Southern Governor had been
appointed to the Territory of Kansas, it would
have been the means of inducing southern i'm
migration there, and hence of giving the ques-
ton of slavery fair hearing before the con-
vention, which will frame the Constitution Of
this future State. We had thought that the
course which has been pursued would have the
effect of multiplying the important principle of
the bill, and that again the South would be
compelled to be content with an abstraction,
which acknowledged her rights but denied
their practical recognition. If in this view of
the subject we have been mistaken, we will
rejoice; for we assure our readers that it is in
no spirit of animadversion that we complain
of what, in our humble judgment, we have
considered unjust. 1t is only a desire to Sc
cure to every section, and every interest of the
Union, common title to the acquisition Of our
country.
Indeed we see much in these appointments
that we admire. majority of the judicial APP
pointments for Nebraska are from the North
and a majority of the judicial appointments for
Kansas are from the South. The attorney for
Nebraska is from the North the attorney for
Kansas is from the South. The Justice of such
appointments we willingly and cheerfuly ac-
knowledge, but we must express our surprise
that the same principle which the Executive
clearly recognized in these cases, did not
govern its action in the gubernatorial appoint.
ments.
In what we have said, we do not mean to re-
feet upon Mr.. Reeder, as the Governor for
Kansas. From all that we have learned he is
sound constitutional Democrat, unbiased by
sectional prejudices, and possessing high quail
hcations for the office which he holds
In conclusion, we repeat that we conceive it
to be plainly just and equitable that Southern
Governor should have been appointed to the
Territory whose domestic interests and institu-
tons would be congenial with his own, and
that q Northern Governor should have been
appointed to the other Territory. Our only
object, and only wish is, to claim for every
section of the Union, the rights and the bene
fits which the Constitution promised to secure

The late Census shows the aggregate cash
value Of all the farms in the several States.
Distributing this aggregate according to the
white population Of each State, we find the
following result NeO Jersey is the highest.
The aggregate cash value Of the farms in that
State is $l20,237,5ll; the population is 49,
555, which gives for each inhabitant $245 so.
The next Of all the States is Vermont, in which
the cash value Of the farms is equal TO $20l
for each inhabitant. Connecticut is next on
the list, and nearly equal to Vermont, being

have an aggregate value Of farms Of $780,
