HON. nATHAN on1rroRp.

We learn with pleasure that Judge Clifford
intends to employ few weeks of the present
season in seeking those healthful recreations
of the country in which large number of our
citizens annually indulge, but which the con-
slant pressure Of official business, and the high
standard Of duty by which the Judge measures
his obligations to the public and the members
Of the Bar, have not permitted him to share
for number of years. a xl1a'a sa ~
Judge Clifford was appointed an associate
Justice of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the year 1853, succeeding that emf
nent Jurist, Judge Curtis of Boston, whose
memorable dissenting opinion in the bred
Scott se,wlll occupy conspicuous niche in
our national history, as the soundest exposi-
ton OF the supreme law of the land as cmbodi-
ed in the Constitution, in its relations to the
subject Of domestic slavery. He succeeded a
great man, and the circuit in which Judge Cliff
ford sits for trials at nist prius has been rem
desea famous in jurisprudence by the sound
learning, the elegance Of diction, and the up-
wearied industry that characterized the late
Judge Story. The duties of a Judge of the
United States Courts who holds the terms of
the Supreme Circuit, involve Herculean labor,
an abandonment of all outside pursuits and
pleasures, and unremitting devotion to that
most jealous of all mistresses, the law. That
Judge Clifford has been able, even with con
slant increase of business growing out of sub
Jects OF litigation which have been developed
by the late rebellion, and with the increase of
criminal business in the Circuit, to fill his high
position to the satisfaction of all parties who
nave appeared as suitors in his Courts and to
the public generally, win secure to him the
increased respect and gratitude of All classes
OF the community; while those who +brouob
professional or social relations, have boon adj
mitted to nearer view of his characto, will
more fully appreciate his integrity and ,yo,t1,
as man, and bis learning, faithfullness a,d
industry as magistrate. No Judge has hoo,,
more conscientious in devoting his whole timo
and energy to the duties of his position. and
we understand that the business OF the Court
has been less in Arrears during his term than at
any former period. Lawyers who practice in
the Circuit Court, and who, of course, have
experienced in professional life the annoyances
Of sthe laws delay" are unanimous in their
Acknowledgements of the mremitting atten-
ton which Judge Clifford has given to the
cases mat have come before him.
ms Is great merit in Judge. In the Eng
nsn courts, especially in the Court of Chance

The Portland daily press., 1865-07-22

numerous delays to which suitors were sub
jected, had wrought inconceiveably more
mischief than would have been involved in the
abandonment of that form of remedy alto
gether.
These delays, however, have been IN
some degree reformed since the time OF taat
great lawyer and doubter, Lord Eldon, and In
the few wcighty remarks addressed to the
House of Lords by Lord WeStbury, formerly
Sir Richard Bethel, on the occasion of his
RESIGNATION as Lord Chancellor, who, however
he NAV have deserved the censure of the
House of Commons in other respects, is GER
tainly entitled to the highest praise for the
great Law Reforms which he has inaugurated
and his indefatigable industry in the despatch
of BUSINESS as Judge, we notice that he re-
fers with special pride to this fact. In the
course OF his speech the hord Chancellor said:
AS to the future can only venture to prom
Use that 1t will be my anxious endeavor, in the
character of a private member of your lord
SHIPS House, to promote and assist in the &C
comphshment of all those reforms and improve
ments in the administration of justice which
i feel yet remain to be carried out. (Cheers)
L may add, In reference TO the appellate JllrlS-
diction of your lordships' House, that am
happy to say it is left in state which will, l
think, be found to be satisfactory. There will
not be at the close of the Session a single
Judgment IN arrear, save one in which the ar
guments, after occupying several days, were
brought to a conclusion only the day before
yesterday. (Hear) In the Court of Chancery
am glad to be able TO inform your lordship [
do not think there will remain at the end of
this week one appeal unheard or one judgment
undelivered. (Oheers)
The affirmation of Judge Clifford's opinions
by the Supreme Court at Washington, have
secured for him an enviable reputation as Ju-
rist among the members of the Bar through
out the entire country.
The Judge is accompanied by his son, VIII
liam Fl. Clifford, Esq, of this city. We under
1stand he viii take the journey leisurely, and
will spend some time in York County, the
scene Of his early professional labors, visiting
the White Mountains before returning We
shall look to see His Honor return reinvigorat-
ed for the arduous labors Of the Courts.

Let Us be Mereiful TO Ourselves,


The physical structure of the strongest human be-
ing is vulnerable everywhere Our bodies are endow-
ed by nature with certain negative power which
protecs them to extent from unwholsome infiu-
ences but this protection is imperfect, and cannot
safely be relied onn unhealthy regions, or under cir
cumstances of more than ordinary danger. There
FORE it is wisdom, tits prudence, it is common sense
to provide against such contingencies by taking an
antidote IN auance in other words BY certifying the
system with a course of HosfETTER's STOMACH
BITTERS, the most complete protective against all
the epidemic and endemic maadies that has ever been
administered in any country. AS a remedy tor Dys-
pepsia, there is no medicine that viii compare with
it. Whoever suffers the pangs of Indigestion any
where on the face Of the earth where HoSTETTER'S
BITTERS can be procured, does so voluntarily; for
as sure as truth exists this invaluable Tonic and Al
terative would restore his disordered stomach to
healthy condition. To the Bilious it is also especi
ally recommended, and in cases of confirmed Cousti
patton it affords speedy and permanent relief. In
Canada, the West Indies, and Australia the Bitters
rank above all other medicines of the class and the
demand for them in all foreign countries increases
everyseason. s7r ws7s
