under any circumstances be SUI
preme. He had read the Constitu-
ton of the United States as the
Fathers made it, ave the people"
etc, and not as secessionists would
read it, 1--WE the State" ETC., made
the same.
He met the test. He dared to do right
and trust to the future for vindica-
ton. He met the test and became
a fugitive.
Well may we, to-day, challenge
this act of refusal to go with the
revolutionists of 1901, as one dis
playing a firmness in devotion to the
right that mounts at leap into the
domain of herOism, and upon the
high plain of sublime example. And
il is but fair criticism here to state
that of all Federal judges in the
South, with the single exception of
Justice CatrOn, Judge Duval stood
alone in his immortal grandeur in
opposition to the heresy of secession
and disunion.
Judge Duvai, mortally, is no more,
yet happily his Creator gave him
life TO see his far-peering wisdom in
adhering TO the old flag, in contend
| ing for the supremacy of theCOnstitu-
| ton, treaties and laws of the United
States and in supporting the union,
| glorlously Vindicated in the,march oil
events; and he was kindly permitted
to close his eyes for the last time
under the flag beneath which he was
born. From this grand example OF
this noble man, let us of to-day, and
our children after us, take lessons
Brilliant as may Shine the un-
furnished honors of all hundred
generals, won upon a thousand
battle fields, not one wears q
brighter one than belongs to the
memory of Judge Duval for his
loyalty-a loyalty not the result OF
location, association, policy or mere
sentiment, but of simple native in.
tegrity allied TO native good sense
and firmness. a fully restored Union
of the once discordant States, O
united, happy and prosperous peo-
pie, numbering over fifty mil
lions of souls-a government
free, in its fullest sense, and
felt only in its outstreched bene.

States judiciary are but meagre

career, to none with more pleasure
in his late days, did he refer thar
his loyalty in the late rebellion
hence speaking at all, must men.
| ton the same,
Judge Duval, next to his family
and his God, loved his country, hel
traditions and her glorious history
He cared not for money, or the tran
silent power and influence it gave

There was Tuch discussion in the
Senate, yesterday, on the joint res
olution, exempting manufactures
from taxation. The opposition can
certainly not object to the measure
on the ground that manufactures
are Of no advantage to the state,
but they oppose it on the general
principle that all property should
pay taxes. The friends of the meas
ure approve it because they believe
such exemption would induce a vast
amount of capital to become invest
ed in manufactures in the state and
that in the end it's taxable values
would be greatly enhanced. The
friends OF the resolution are in the
majority in the Senate, and it is
hoped the people may be given a
chance to vote upon it. Ifso, Ii will,
without doubt become a part of the
states organic law.

THE Senate yesterday reconsid-
cred the vote by which the substi-
tpte offered by Senator Terrell for
the immigration clause of the Con-
stitution was finally defeated. The
substitute Of Senator Terrell was
adopted instead of the committee
bill on Monday last, but it lacked
Que vote only of the necessary two
thirds on its final passage. Senator
5Terrell's substitute contained a pro-
hibition against establishing q bu-

but requires the publication and

not belong to the State, and their

their competency, the Legislative
