JadIgll;s orr.

Mn, EpyToRs 1 learn thnt Gov.
Orr, has accented !.l.e JadReship oi
the Eigllth Circuit, and that he has
entered npon the discharge of his
duties. / am aware that some politi-
clans of this State have declared it to
be dishonorable to accept an Office at
the hands of the present Legislature
of the State; and some have even
said that Gov. Orr would forfeit ell
of their respect if ho accepted the
position of Judge. Now 1 am salts
fled that, looking at this step both
personally and politically, it is emf
nently wise and proper, andw never
be any discredit to the honorable
gentleman. Although We are all
compelled to admit that the public
life of Judge Orr has been great
success, yet we must. sny that we have
never known any man who, at various
times, has been more censured and
abused. And why has this been the
case? L think that the question is
answered by stating that on all ones
tions of national importance he has
always taken his position in advance
of the politicians, the: press and the
people, and his great sin has been not
in being wrong in politics, but being
in advance of public opinion, and
always expressing his opinion with
out reserve. Any statesman will be
abused as much for being in advance
of public opinion as he is for being
wrong; and there is nothing strange
in this, because we pettifoggers have
not the information and the brains
necessary to grasp the great ques-
tions which are to influence the des-
tiny of individuals and nations. It
certainly has been the great trouble
of the political career of Judge Orr,
as it were, to combat public opinion,
when the State has been called upon
to take q position on some great
question; and even bis enemies must
allow that he has exhibited bold
ness in assuming, and a 6rmness in
maintaining, his positions which is
not often seen-and if we had taken
his advice we would not now be af-
fiicted with the curse of universal
negro suffrage and carpet-baggers.
The people on his circuit have acted
with becoming wisdom in assuring
him of their great confidence.
CONSERVATIVE.
