JUDGE r w HUGHES. Senate, or
Wednesday of last week, confirmed the nom
nation of r. w. Hughes as U. S. Judge o.
the Eastern District Of Virginia. Senator
Lewis made an effective speech, in executive
session, favoring the nomination, and wher
the vote was taken, only six Senators voted
in the negative, and these for the reason
that Col. Hughes had, at one time in his
life, fought duel.
judge Hughes has already entered upon
the active discharge of the duties of his po'
sition, his first court being now in session al
Alexandra. He has the ability and learn.
ing to make Judge ofwhom the State and the
nation may be proud, and VIC have NO doubt
he will meet the highest expectations of his
friends and the government.
The Federal Judiciary is now ably repre-.
sented in Virginia. There. is no purer OF
more conscientious Judge than Hon. Alex
Rives. His judicial rulings rank him among
the profoundest jurists in the country, and
entitle him to still higher recognition in biz
profession. Indeed, We were strongly in
hope that he would be called to the Supreme
Bench of the United States, and such doubt.
less would have been the case had a vacancy
been created by the promotion Of one of the
present associates The South should bt
more fully represented in that body, and who
is better qualified, from the Potomac to the
Gulf, by reason of native intellect, exten
sive reading, and severe mental culture ane
training, to fill SO important position
than Judge Rives? It would be fitting
tribute to his national tealty, his learning
and to the State, to be thus recognized.

Latane, formerly rector of Trinity Church,
Staunton, but more recently in charge OF st
Matthew's Episcopal church, Wheeling, W.
Va, has dissolved his connection with the
ministry of said church on account of the
growing tendency of the Episcopal body
throughout the United States to ritualistic
practices. For the present he does not
join the Commings movement, although he
endorses it, but will await for while the
action of the church in Virginia and West
Virginia.
MIR. Latane is an able and deeply p!ous
minister, and nothing but deep sense Of
religious duty could have brought about this
change.
