JUDGE BLACK.

The members Of the new administration
are all men Of national reputation. But the
appointment from Penhsy lvania is especially
fortunate and the President could have
found no man in the State of more vigorous
intellect and indepen dent spirit than Judge
Black. His opinion in the Passmore Will
Hanson case is the strongest legal production
from the mind OF an American lawyer since
Webster's famous speech in tho Dartmouth
College case. lE his public addresses he
uses language with aa ease and grace, and
yet with power that no American of this
time can equal. His late address on Reli-
gious Tolera,ion, of which we published n
good part, is a specimen OF his fine aud flu
ishei Scholarship, as also Of his clear and
strong mind. Bn, i, is in his legal opinions
that we see most plainly the fine accuracy
with which he weighs the shades OF every
words meaning and his thorough familiarity
with each ones origin, history and use. lie.
gal dissertations require this precision OF
language, but many judge and lawyer has
found the difficulty Of being at once definite
and ho, proliy and tedious, Judge Black
does no, use one word 100 many, and no
word in his sentences could bo changed for
more pertinent one.
But there is another meri, in this appoint
ment Judge Black is not embarrassed BY
any political associations or obligations that
can in the sbsh,es, degree resiric, his entire
Independence in his new position. Indeed
We know that his temper would not submit
10 be hedsed in by anv lies or bonds, any
more hau the eagles spirit would bear 10
be Gagged. He will be strong aud houota.

On last Friday afternoon the public exam

in the Academy Of this town. The classes
showed proficiency in their studies which
did credit to them aud their teachers. The
class in Algebra was very good Tor its time
of study The advanced Grammar class
passed through very much such exercises
in "Young's Night Thoughts" as makes a
part OF the examination of teachers for the
Grammer schools of Philadelphia, aud we
believe with an equal percentage of corec,
answers 10 the report of the Philadelphia
examinations. The youngest classes in Ge-
ography and Grammar, under Miss Morris,
could teach ono half the teachers o! our
county.

nal reading was held in the evening q, the
Methodist Church, ard il seemed as il every
human being of the district was there. The
exercises were we'll for those of the first
