Distinguished Lawyers Dying.

II is a sad, but by no means rare occur
renee now, to see IN the latest news columns Of
the papers an announcement of the death 81
some one Of the distinguished lawyers Of the
States. On Wednesday. of last week, Hon.
Robert Y. Conrad, of Winchester, died. and on
the Friday following Col Charles X. Mallory
of Hampton, and Judge f. P. Pitts, of Nor
folk, passed away. The Richmond Whg
briefly pays tribute to each as follows:
Mr.. Conrad was one Of the first lawyers,
best thinkers, and most finished scholars in
| Virginia. He had mind of great breadth,
and depth, and his attachments were common
surate with his native capacity. He was q
gentleman, too, of inestimable worth.
Col. Mallory, though much younger man,
had also been prominent at the bar in his own
section of the state for a number Of years. He
rose rapidly in his profession, and he devoted
the labors Of his life to it. lie was a member
of the Convention which passed the Virginia
ordinance Of secession, but never, we believe.
held any other public Office not directly con-
nected with the duties, tastes and habits of a
iurist He was a gentleman Of refinement,
purity and benevolence.
Judge Pitts was in early life an active par
ticipaut in politics, and with ability, eloquence,
and popularity, he was favorite with his
party in the seaboard section. AS a lawyer
he held high rank, having successfully served
as circuit Judge on the Eastern Shore, where
legal learning and forensic augmentation and
oratory have always been conspicuous.
The Winchester Necs in announcing the
death of Hon. r. Y Conrad, speaks OF him as
lawyer Of ripe learning and deep research,
and as an advocate of great ability
The Times appears in mourning for the
distinguished deceased, and gives an interesting
Biographical sketch which;s prelaced by the
remark:
a great light has gone our in midst
Instead Of the living presence there re-
mains to US only TIE memory of the man,
whose long and distinguished career has iden-
titled bis name with the history of our city, aud
added new lustre to the bright record of names
which constitutes IT'S claim TO distinction as
having furnished to a noble profession, not a
few of its brightest ornaments"
