JUDGE RUFFIN-A correspondent of the Pc
tersburg Express thus speaks Of Judge Rufin and
the Supreme Court ofN. G.: ..
"The Supreme Court of North Carolina is now
beyond doubt, one of the ablest judicial tribunals
in the nation. There is not in this whole Union
a more profound jurist than Judge Ruffin. l re-
gard him an honor to the American Bar, and I
feel confident that about the most instructive and
interesting discussion which could be raised, would
be one between Judge Rufin and such man as
Hardwicke or Eldon, ON great questions of equity.
The truth is he knows Vesey, Jr. and Vesey, Sr.
by heart. mean by this that he is great equity
jurst, and | have hesitation in saying that the
powers that be-thc national powers-ought long
since to have called such a to the Supreme
Court bench of the Union. There is on
the Supreme Court bench of the United States su-
perior to Judge Rufin. Had he been placed on
that bench he would have added greatly to the
high character of the federal judiciary. But in
thus speaking Of Judge Rufin, whose unanimous
reelection to the Supreme Court OF the State by
the present Legislature is honor to them as
much as it is to him. do not wish to be consider
ed as undertaking the high qualifications Of The
other Judges of the Supreme Court of this State.
Chief Justice Pearson is man of profound legal
learning, and SO is Judge Battle. There is a
striking difference in the character of their minds,
but each has its peculiarities distinctly and strong
ly marked, and doubt those distinctive charae-
terstics add to the great strength of the Supreme
Court Bench of the State.
AS now constituted, there is unbounded conf
dence in the Supreme Court, and no one doubts
that, beyond all question, that bench is composed
of men of high moral worth, and the most profound
legal clearinghouse more SO! So say $50 say
all'

ROBBERY OF A COUNTY TREAsURER.-It has
been stated that the Office of the treasurer of Co
shocton county, Ohio, was robbed of $4,000
The Pittsburg Post gives the following particulars
"The treasurer, Mr. ketchem, was about closing
the Office, when three men entered, one of whom
asked the amount of tax lot in West Carlisle
The treasurer turned to get the tax duplicate
when suddenly large shawl thrown over his
head his pinioned, and his body forced to the
floor. He was instantly gagged, his arms tied be-
hind him with chord, his legs also tied, and his
eyes kept blindfold. He thinks one man locked
the Office door and stood sentinel; one stood over
him, while the other took the keys, unlocked and
robbed the safe They then relocked the safe
and took the keys with them. Mr. Ketclem re-
maned in this painful condition for long time
before he could work the gag from his mouth.
When he did he commenced holIooing for help,
but the people were generally in bed, and it was
near one o'clock when he was heard by Hiram
Taylor, who aroused the sheriff, and breaking in
the door, found the treasurer tied upon the floor,
nearly exhausted his face black from the effects of
the gag: The cord had cut into the flesh of his
arm; his legs were so benumbed he could scarcely
stand, and he would have died before morning un-
less released" .-.a =. tr
