THE members of the Cumberland Bar and
others interested in our courts would have
preferred the nomination of Mr.. Strout for
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, but
as Gov. DingleIs has not arrived at that con-
cEsion, it is after for congratulation that
he has named gentleman so pre-emnently
qualified by long experience, legal learning
and high character for the position. The
only objection raised against Mr.. Lbbey is
that he is Democrat. 1t seems that this
should not be considered an objection in a
department of the government from which
political questions are excluded. Even in
New Hampshire, where party lines and party
distinctions are most closely observed, Demo-
Gratis have always had representatives in the
Supreme Court, and in the recent reconstruc-
ton of the courts in that state one of the
three Supreme judgeships was conferred upon
a Republican by Democratic Governor and
Council. Mr.. Libbey, as a jurist, would be a
valuable acquisition to the Supreme Bench; !;
and we think we give utterance to the senti-
ment of the thoughtful men of the dominant
party when we express the hope that his
nomination will be confirmed.

endorsements OF the Peoples Remedy.

When ski lful and cautious medical men
give over their own signatures favorable
opinion OF the soothing and vtalizing effects
of a preparation, the public does not hesitate
to believe them. The voluminous and EN-
phatic professional testimony In favor OF
Hogtetter's Stomach Bitters, as a specific for
all disorders of the slomaph and bowels, for
liver complaint, intermittent and remittenI
fevers, and the thousand Ills that wait upon
dyspepsia, must convince the most skepti-
cal. Aside, however, from the testimony OF
the faculty, there is a large mass of evidence
from patients in every walk of life, all show
ing that this great preventive and restora-
tive is of inestimable value to the sick and
the debilitated. The bitters are suited to oil
climates, and are universally endorsed as
preventive of disorders caused by miasma
and impure water.

OF the treasury for his opinion as to the
right OF State to impose license tax
upon the capital of national banks, and as
to the right of State officers to examine
national banks, or to require reI o-ts of their
affairs to ba made to them. The solicitor has
given an elaborate opinion that a license
upon the capital OF a national bank can not
be enforced and that St,t4 officers have no
right either to examine or to exact reports
from national banks. He says this entire
legislation is at variance with the la " as
adjudicated, and destructive of the prin-
clDles governing the relations of the federal
