Judge Alexander 3. Cochran

Inc gentleman whose name heads this ar
!lce Is one OF the young men of Virginia who
rs just entering upon career of public useful
ness ana distinction He gave early indica-
Ilons Oh great promise, and won laurels at the
University OF Virginia. After his academic
COURSE was finished he retired to his home and
engaged In the study and then the practice of
the law from the pursuit of which he WAS
called by his countymen to represent them in
Rart 10 the House OF Delegates of Virginia. -
lew young men, untrumpeted, have so soon
commanded the attention of the House and
won It's confidence, and fewer, under the cir
cumstances which have surrounded the present
Assembly, have continued to hold this atten-
t,on and confidence. Judge Cochran at the
ciose OF the late session possessed, probably in
greater degree than any other member, the
ear OF the House, and though he rarely tres
passed upon its time, he never addressed It
without effect. His position, as chairman of
the committee of finance, imposed upon him
much labor and called for great mental exer-
ton. lie proved fully equal to all the demands
upon him, siG ..n.-5 ai1s- s--'-'1 : :,
As a clear, forcible and logical debater he
had no superior in the House. He was one of
the few who thought for himself, and rare in
deed was 1t that he did not lead the House to
has conclusion. " hen the General Assembly
was called on to elect city Judges he was Sc
iCCttu DIS otHtHculiy ECleu TO wear the ermlne,
as well for his irreproachable moral character
as for his native intellect and legal attainments.
For many weeks he kept the question OF ac-
ceptauce Under advisement, and finally conclu-
ded that he could better serve his constituents
in the House Of Delegates than on the Bench,
and ne allowed the period for qualification to
pass by default sa4I -
We can but congratulate the State, and es-
pecially the people of Augusta upon this de-
termination of Judge Cochran, for if there
ever was a time when Virginia needed Ia her
legislative halls men of enlarged views, with
learning sufficient to enforce them and charac-
ter to give them weight, now is that time, and
Judge Cochran is precisely one of that sort.
We feel satisfied that there is a brighter fu-
ture yet in reserve for this gentleman, and we
doubt not that his constituents will be quite
ready to secure his abilities and retain his SER
vices until the State shall demand him for
yet more enlarged arena s2.sa
Judge Cochran has II in his power to win
the highest houors and for him we have not
the fear that the glittar of present place will
withdraw him from the earnest pursuit of
those studies necessary to make the finished
statesman. He has youth, strength, health
and intellect, polished by generous education,
needing only the spur Of ambition TO meet the
fullest hopes Of his friends.
