Retiring Judges.

When Judge Cothren first came for
ward as a candidate for the judgship of
the Fifth Judicial Circuit against NJ NJ.
Jackson. he was nearly forty years of
age. That was thirty years ago, con-
sequently the Judge at the expiration of
his present term will be very nearly
seventy years old. Or, i'll other words,
will have arrived at that age when the
justices of the supreme court of the
United States are retired from service.
as having out-grown their usefulness.
The law under which that is done was
passed in 1870, after the feebleness and
aversion TO hard labor on the part of the
members of the court had allowed the
business to accumulate to such an ex-
tent that the court has been kept in ar
rears ever since and the problem now
is how to relieve it from the pressure.
A correspondent writing on the sub
ject to the Albany law journal says: II
venture the statement that if the justices
had, for the last twenty years, uniform
lily been retired upon reaching seventy
years of age the docket of the court
would not be more than two years be-
hind. At the very time when the cases
accumulated, one-third of the justices
were untitled to perform hard or CON
tinuous judicial labor" Further on,
speaking of this keeping the old judges
on the bench. the writer says The
result is that the bench has not for more
than thirty years, at any time, been
composed wholly of vigorous men.
When the Hunt vacancy is filled it will
be, and it is known that the older JUS
tees intend t. retire as soon as they
reach the age of seventy. We have
every reason TO expect therefore that
hereafter the Nation will have bench
capable of full labor. If the existing
vacancy is filled by Judge Blatchford it
will be the most efficient combination
of justices since the days OF the giants,
the days when no change occurred IN
eleven years, when all but one justice
were under sixty and taco Wcle unde,
FORTY gears Of a9e the days of Mar.
shall, Washington, Livingston. John.
son, Storey and Duval,"
Yet having reached the age when the
highest judicial officers of the Nation are
retired in order that legal business may
suffer no detriment, Judge Cothren
comes forward for a reelection. As
viii be seen by the words of the writer
quoted above the days of the giants
We're when two of the justices of the
supreme bench ''were under forty.
An experience of over one hundred
Years has shown that young, vigorous

II is very seldom that candidate is
nominated for any office within the gift
Of the people against whom nothing can
be said. Such, however, appears to be
the ease with Mr.. Clementson. Finding
no Joint Of his armor which can be
pierced with success they fall back up
on the plea that be is too young This,
in the light Of fact, is itself an admit
tance that his qualifications for the
JudgshiP are such H. should cntitle him
TO the vote Of every cleetor of the dis
trict. The question of youth is one that
has very seldom, If ever, been success
fully raised against 4 judicial candidate.
Judge Cothrrn himself was several

must confess, the Yankee drawl, as they

GENERAL MAHoNE AND THE Ex.Co

GENERAL MAHONE AND THE EX-CON-
FEDERATEs. Major Robert Tansill, of
Prince William county, Virginia. for
merly an officer in the Federal army,
and afterwards Colonel in the Confede
rate service, and who, during the recent
campaign in Virginia, was pronounced
Readjuster, has written letter in which
he severely arraigns Senator Malone for
his recent vote, the effect of which is to
prevent ex Confederate soldiers from
holding commissions in the United States
army and navy. Major Tansill declares
that Senator Malone by this vote sex
hibited degree and kind of political in
gratitude and wrong which equals, if it
does not transcend, any to be found in
the history Of our fallen race. This
strange and cruel act is fatal, as it ought
to be, to General Mahone's political
prospects, so far as Virginia is concerned,
unless the people of the State have un-
fortunately degenerated so as to be capa-
BILE of the degradation of initiating the
servile nature and example of the dog,
in licking the hand that smites and de-
grades them" Before concluding, Mai
Tansill declares that mo imaginable ex.
cuse can be advanced for General
Mahone's unnatural and detestable
treachery to his old friends and COM
paniOns IN arms.
