The Supreme Court Of Appeals on
the first day of its session in Wheel
ing, passed the following resolutions
of respect to tic memory of Judge
PAUL.:
Lamcnting, in common with our
fellow-citizens throughout the State,
the loss We all have sustained by the
death of Judge PAUL; it is peculiarly
proper, that we, the Judges Of the
Supreme Court of Appeals, his as
sociates and friends should express
our sense of his worth, of the many
high qualities by which be was dis
tinguished as a judge, a citizen and
christian, of the affection with which
we regarded him, and ofour sympa-
thy with his family in the heavy af-
Fiction with which they have been
visited.
ResoEred, therefore, that our de-
ceased associate has deservedly won
for himself our highest respect and
esteem for his ability, learning and
diligence as a judge, for the purity
of his character, and his entire devo-
ton to duty, religious and social.
Ordered, That these testimonials
of our respect for the deceased, be
entered on the record of the court,
and that the President be requested
to communicate a copy of the same
to the widow and family of Judge
PAUL, with the assurance that the
members of this. court deeply sympa-
-thize with them in their great loss;
and as a further mark of respect for
deceased, it is ordered that the court
adjourn until tomorrow morning at
nine o'clock.

- ecH~e may not
have them perfect, and some who
: figured in the meeting may have
>been overlooked, but if such is the
ease, we can assure them that it was
not intentional on our part. 1t is no
small matter to procure the proceed
ings Of a society such as thisone was,
where nearly all present were entire
strangers to us;'but We believe the
members of the association will at
least give US credit for givinga very
full and impartial report Of their
proceedings. The speech of our wor-
thy and gifted young Mayor, in
welcoming and extending the hospi-
talities Of our historic little city at the
confluence Of the Great Kanawha and
Ohio rivers, to the gentlemen of the
Association, we give in full. We re-
gret that we could not obtain the adj
dress of DR.. 4. L. Knight, Chairman Of
the Committee of Arrangements, in
welcoming them on behalf of the
Medical profession of Point Pleasant
and Mason County. 1t was IN adj
mirablc and well delivered address.
So far as we have heard an express
ion from the eminent gentlemen who
were here, it was one Of praise for our
town andcitizcnS. Many of them cx-
pressed regret at having to leave at
all; and some declared their intcn-
ton ofmaking this thcir future home.
Our citizens who are provcrbial for
their genuine hospitality, seemed to
Guido themselves on this occasion,
and well do they deserve the praise
ofall. We feel satisfied that none of
the members of this Society regretted
in the least that they had selected
Point Pleasant as their place Of meet
ing, and had our town been re-nomi-
mated as the place Of next meeting,
we verify believe it would have been
selected without hardly a dissenting
vote.
Seldom in our life have we witness
ed an association or conference of
gentlemen, whether religious, politi-
cal, legal, medical, or editorial, where
there seemed manifest u feeling of
greater unity or fratcrnal Difference
or regard than in the assembly of
physicians Of the State, which has
just adjourned its session in our lit
tie town. May brotherly love ever
prevail and 2bidc with them.
