Increasing the Supreme .Iudyes-Judgc
Bell has just introduced into the Senate bin
to increase the number of Judges of the Su-
preme Court to six. AT the general election
one person shall be elected an additional Judge
of The Supreme Court, for the term of fifteen
years, to be commissioned in like manner,
and receive the same compensation as the 9th
er Judges. After the additional Judge shall
be so elected, it shall be the duty of the Court
to assign annually, in regular succession, one
of their number to hold the Court of Nisi
Prius for the period of one year; and during
such period be shall hold four terms of the
said Court. And during that period the said
Judge shall not be required to attend the
sessions of the Supreme Court ia 6anc, unless
particularly required SO to do. A bill, SINH
lar to this, has been before the Senate fer sew
eral years, but for some reason has never
passed.

Death Of Hon, Philip Eoon

It is with feelings Of sincere sorrow that we
announce the death of Hon. PHILIP NOOK, one
of the Oldest and most respected citizens OF this
borough, on last Saturday morning, IN the 10Th
year of his age. He was native of ireland, but
enigrated to this country about the time ne ar
rived at the years OF manhood. lie shortly ai-
forwards became a resident of this County and
thenceforth it was his permanent home. lie
was never absent from it for single day, save in
obedience TO the calls of business or duty, and in
its bosom his mortal remains now await
the dread summons which ali must obey
when time shall be no more. Being possessed
of a good education, indomtabe energy of
character and talents of an emnently practical
character, he soon after his settlement in this
County, attracted the attention of its hardy
pioneers, and shortly became one of its most
useful and prominent citizens. He was Sheriff
of the County from, We think, 1912 to 1915,
and was soon afterwards elected a member of
the State Legislature. He afterwards filled the
office of Prothonotary for a number of years,
| and was appointed one of the Associate Judges
| Of the County by Governor Porter. The last
| named Office ne continued TO hold until Decem-
Der Court, 1851.
| But it was in the relations of private life,
husband. father and neghbor, that his virtues
shone with the most resplendent lustre. His
greatest pleasure seemed to consist in rendering
those around him happy. The mean spirit of
envy found no place in his breast, and he was
always grateful at beholding the prosperity of
his neighbors. '.Their welfare pleased him and
their cares distressed Throughout his long
life he was sincere and practical christian, and
at least since we knew him, all his serious
thoughts seemed to have stin Heaven. While
he ferveatly loved the religion to which he be-
longed, he was no bigot; and it has been truly
said of him that he was at the same time the
courteous gentleman and sincere christian.
Never did we meet man who more sincerely
despised detraction, or was more reader to utter
a kind word concerning the absent. His mortal
remains were followed to their last resting place
by unusually large procession of those who
knew, loved and esteemed him in this life. Nav
he rest in perez.

How sweet the ties Of trse friendship,
To the truly noble mind,
When cur hopes are all deSpondept.
To pleasure it inclines.
For when life's brightest features,
Seems darkly clouded o'er,
By cares aad disappointmefs,
For friends we then isplore. = ~
IT'S then we prize them higher,
Worth more than precious gold,
For then its truest blessings,
To US it does unfold.
That gift we ought to cherish,
Cherish with all our hearts;
For in true friendship wei find,
What pleasure it imparts.
For like the rising sun,
Which first seems wan and pale,
But when ats couIse pursues,
What brilliancy prevails.
So is that noble gift,
When impressed upon the mind,
All seems bright and cheerful,
And il truly is refined.
Dear friends i leave you for while,
Perhaps some other time,
| will in friendship call on you,
