JUDGE HENRY w. THoMAs.-Thc Richmond
Dispatch pays the following we'll merited com
pliment to Judge II, w. Thomas, whose course
we took occasion TO commend few days ago
1--WE cannot too highly commend the indie
rendence of Judge Thomas. OF the Fairfax
circuit We do not believe that any Judge in
Virginia has manifested a trucking spirit or
any disposition to lower the dignity of the jul
dicial office; but it has fallen to Judge Thomas
lot to be compelled to decide more cases which
afforded some temptation to this course than
any other circuit judge in The State. He is a
thorn in the side of Underwood; and it has been
said chiefly with view to get rid of Judge
Thomas that Underwood went to Washington
to convince the authorities that the Howard
amendment ought to be allowed TO operate in
Virginia to the exclusion from Office Of every
man who is disqualified under that amend
ment"
