stated that n rumor had reached Bswag

the Sultan has not approved the condi-

Supreme Judge RothrOck.

The Governor yesterday rendered to
lion. James II. Rothrock of Cedar County,
the position of Judge OF Supreme Court, to
fill the original vacancy created by the
act increasing the number of Judges to
five.
Judge Rothrock was born in Pennsyl-
waEia, and is row about fourty.four years
old. In 1861 he was elected to the House
OF the Ninth General Assembly. In Au-
gust of the following year lie was appoint
cd Lieutenant Colonel of the Thirty-Flltli
Iowa, the regiment of which the gallant
Hill. who fell at Nashville, was Colonel.
and Henry O'Connor was Major. In the
latter part of 1858 Colonel Ro'hrock re-
signed and returned 10 his home at lid
ton. Here he united with himself Mr..
VIM. P. Wolf, (since an influential State
Senator, and also popular Representative
in Congress. in sn extensive legal prac-
,ice. in 1856 he was elected to the bench
of the Eight Judicial District, as a sue
cessor to Judge N VI. Hubbard and was
reelected in 1870 and 1874 the last time
by full vote Of botn parties, the best of
evidence of the acceptable manner in
which he discharged the duties of his posi-
ton. Last summer, he was steadily sup
ported by a respectable number OF coun-
tics, in the Republican State Convention,
for the office of Judge of the Supreme
Cour., to the position to which he is now
invited. Those who know Judge Roth
rock best stoutly affirm that his undoubt-
ed ability and exalted integrity will insure
for him successful career on the bench
of the States highest court.
The court is now full again, with Chief
Justice Sewers, and Judges Beck, Day,

= 1t so vigorously delincates the condition
. Of our men returning from Andersonville
and other prison pens that it should be
o. widely circulated. The date is early in
1866:
"The released prisoners of war arc now
coming up from the Southern prisons. |
have seen a number of them. The sight
is worse than any sight of battlefield or
any collection Of wounded. even the
bloodicst. There was (as sampled one
large boat load of several hundred brought
about the 25th to Annapolis, and out OF
the whole number only three individuals
were able to walk from the boat The
rest were carried ashore and laid down
in one place or another. Can those be
men-those little livid- brown, ash streak
ed, monkey-look dwarfs Are they
really not mummied, dwindlcd corpscs?
They lay there, most of them, quite still,
but with horrible look in their eyes
and skinny lips, often with not enough
flesh on their lips to cover their teeth.
Probably no more appalling sight was
ever seen on this earth There are deeds,
crimes, that may be forgiven, but this is
not among them. 1t sleeps its perpetrt-
tors in blacklist, cscapeless, endless dam
rglation. Over 50, 900 have been compelled
to die the death of starvation. Reader,
did you ever try to realize what starva-
ton actually is, in those prisons and III
land of plenty?)
IAN indcscribable meanness, tyranny,
aggravating course Of insults, almost in

prisons The dead there are not to be
pitied as much as some of the living that
come from tflere-if tLcy can be called
living; many of them are mentally lmbe-

Mr.. Whitman's description has all the
more value from the fact that it is that
of q competent critic and observer, ard
that since the above was written its au-
thor has been pronounced in favor of
amnesty and reunion. There is c'oud
of witnesses who speak rs from the grave.

succeed our present worthy incumbent,

International Scientific Series.

THE NATURE OF LIGHT. with General Ac-
count of Physical Optce. BY DR.. Eugene LON.
mel Professor of Physics in the University Of
Erlangen. With 1888 Illustrations and Plate OF
Spec,rs in Chromolithography. l2mo. Cloth
saOO. New York: D. Appleton g. Co. Chicago:
Jansen McClurg & Co.
This work is the eighteenth volume of
the international Scientific Series" now
being published by D. Appleton & Co.,
and which we have had occasion to refer
to in these columns heretofore, and like
the rest of the series, is written by one
who thoroughly understands what he is
about The study of the nature and
properties of Light has been an object of
philosophical research from the most
ancient times; but it must he acknow.-
edged that the subject is as little under
stood at the present time as any of the
most abtrnse subjects of philosophical
inquiry. 1t is true that various great
philosophers have advanced many theo-
rics as to what light is, and have tried to
analyze it but at present it is almost or
quite as impossible to define it as 1t is to
define what life is This work is written
by man who has made speciality OF
the study of optics, and everything per-
tanning to that branch of science, and he
gives his views in an easy way so as to
be understood, using as common terms
as he can. The chapters on Spectrum
Analysis are especially valuable, and will
probably be read with as much interest
if not more than any other part of the
book, though when we try to decide
which portion of the volume is more in
teresting than another difficulty arises
which can best be settled by each person
reading the book and formin; their own
conclusions. This volume is in keeping
with those heretofore issued in this series,
both as regards its mechanical appear
ancc, and the value of its contents. 1t
will be sent to any address, on receipt OF
the price by the publishers.

We see by the papers that Hon. Josiah
T. Young will be candidate for renomin-
stion to his present office that OF Secre-
tary Of State. Although be has already
had the office two terms he will make

only reason will be the prejudice which
seems to exist against Il third term. lie

and we doubt if better selection could
be made than 10 nominate him again.
