The Evening Post suggests that
it would be . good thing for Hayes to
appoint Judge Davis's successor from
the South. That is true, aud yet
when Mr.. Hayes comes to look around
among bis Southern supporters, he
will have his difficulties. j. Madison
Wells, although he has exercised iu-
dicial functions more literally than
any other man in this country, is not
a lawyer, though perhaps in his effort
to unite good men Of all parties Mr..
Hayes would not give much weight
to that consideration Mr.. Casanave,
who is large and dignifed person, is
engaged in mercantile pursuits, and
while he would fill the position of in.
terrosater with great success, is hard
~ the man for the place. Mr. Kenner
is not, we believe, seriously thought Of
for the position. Judge Durell, whose
most famous order, though questioned
by laymen, has lately been ratified by
three judges OF the Supreme Court,
has deserved well of Mr.. Hayes, and
would be IN excellent man i'll case e-
gal bubbles should be brought up
hereafter which it is important should
be PIT out Of court in the interests of
the cause ofjustice and Of the Repub
lean party There is Poker Jack
Mcclure, cx-Chet-Justice of Arkan-
sas, whose appointment would be
gratifying to the earnest Republicans
of his State. After the recent tactious
behavior of the courts of Florida and
South Carolina, the mem bers of them
will scarcely have the impudeucc to
expect promotion, but Judge Bond
has done good service in treating with
proper contempt the judgment of the
last-named body, and shown that he
can be relied on Ill any emergency. In
q case where the safety Of the party
may depend upon the appointment,
Mr.. Hayes should act only after de-
liberation, and will of course see that
what is now wanted on the Supreme
Court bench is not mere dry legal
learning, Or what is called ''protes-
sional standing" so much as earnest
and uuhinchiag Republicanism.

No navy in time of war ever SUI,
fered such mortality among its higher
officers rs the navy Of the United
States has had to mourn during the
last month. Within these few weeks
no less than six Rear Admirals have
died Smith, Alden, Wilkes, Bailey,
Davis, and now Goldsborough--all of
them veterans who had done gallant
service in their day and shared in the
well-won honors of the American ma
Wy. OF the six all but Davis who was
4 student and a man of science rather
than a man of action, had been retired
and their places on the active list filed
up, so that this remarkable succession
Of deaths will only move the officers OF
the navy up one point but though
there are no vacancies in the list it
will not be easy to fill the places OF
these sturdy old sailors, relics of a
generation gone.
