We refer the Whig also to the decision
Of the Supreme Court Of North Carolina
quoted by us recently. That tribunals de-
cision, changed TO suit the case before W.,
would read ~ follows:
"whcn one OF the duties appertaining
to the Office OF judge was the appointment
OF commissioners in chancery, and during
the plaintiffs term as such judge, the Le-
gislature passed an act for the appointment
Of such commissioners by the Governor
Held, that such act was unconstitutional
In word. an officer. whether Judge, or
a sheriff. or a Governor, IL named in n state
constitution is protected by that constitu-
ton In the peculiar functions OF his Office
as well as In the mere right TO hold such
Office.
Again As 10 the Why's dictum on an
other point, we say The Constitution pro-
yidcs that judges shall be elected by the
Legislature. Therefore il Is right and con-
stitutional thus 20 elect them. But II would
indeed be the "mcrest nonsense to argue
from this fact that the Governor could con-
stitutionaly he empowered to appoint
them. 60 az TO commissioners in chancery.
The Constitution provides for the election
Of judges; and judges have always in Nir-
ginia appointed their own commissioners
in chancery. Ergo, says the Wing, the
Governor il the true and proper authority
TO appoint these. Not so. says the Dispatch !;
they must he appointed as they were ap-
pointed when the Constitution was framed
and ratified. The Court of Appeals, both
the present one and the next, will see that
every officer named in the Constitution
shall he protected in the Office as il was
when IL was conferred upon him.

COMMISSIONERS IN CHANCERY.-We did
not consider our few lines OF Wednesday
on the subject OF the appointment Of COM
missioners in chancery as " settler" or a
"clincher," or anything OF that sort. We
rather meant the article to be suggestive of
an argument. But for all that it was better
than the Wings illogical comment upon it..
That journal says:
"In point OF fact, commissioners in chan
cery have very little Of the judicial func-
tion-their duties being principally minis
terial, administrative, or executives; and,
aside from these considerations, when we
leave the people as the source OF all power,
the Legislature and the Governor, by pre-
cedent, by law, and by Constitution, are
the true and proper authorities TO fill all
Offices whatsoever in every department Of
the government. In this view OF the mat
ter, even the Dispatch must confess that its
constitutional argument Is the merest non
sense"
In point OF fact, commissioners i'm chan
Gerry perform much work which but for
them the Judge would have to perform
himself. They are the eyes and ears Of the
Judge. They are his tentacles. They
ought, therefore, to be dependent upon him
for the position. A fine arrangement it
would be TO have Governor CAMERON APP
pointing commissioners in chancery for all
the courts in Virginia. Who would
them for uniaithiulness or incompetence?
How could aiudge compel them to perform
their duties? How punish them for not
performing the same:
We don't believe there is much danger
OF the passage Of any such law. There are
are in the Legislature some Readiusters
who have sense enough TO know that il
would be q shameful and totally uniuStifia-
bic invasion Of the rights Of the courts for
the Legislature to take from them the APP
pointment Of commissioners in chancery
and therefore we believe that the PROPOSE
ton will be voted down. Besides, not
even a Readjuster Court OF Appeals would
countenance such an infringement upon
the rights OF the other courts OF the Com
monwealth. As says the Martinsburg
Statesman:
"Under our Constitution, as indeed UNI
der our theory Of government, the three
departments--thc executive, legislative, /
and iudicial--are not only independent OF
each other, but coequal in power and dig |
nity. Any attempt OF one to interfere with |
another In its constitutional duties Is not /
only unbecoming, but unwarranted. Nor |
Il Il any hralning OF this salutary principle |
10 say that any offer or effort OF one 10 pre-
,>..tla "a, dictate the manner In which an-
other shall perform It's constitutional

Mr.. Joseph Miller is an employe in the
Post Office Department. Becoming weary
OF the monotony Of department life, he re-
Gently took Il short visit to New York, ana
during his absence, it is alleged, an eX-
Waterman OF the Treasury, by the name OF
Mace, began paying his attentions to Mrs.
Miller and the little Millers, but more espe-
cjallv to the former. Now, Mrs. Miller, who
is The second wife, is represented as wo-
man OF many charms Of person and not UNI
moved by flattery. She is, too, some thirty
wears Younger than her husband, who has
daughters older than his second wife. Mace
was too good a Judge OF human nature not
to find the weak point in Mrs. Mlller.s
makeup. and so successfully did he ply ms
addresses that she sold out the furniture in
the house, and with her children and
new-found friend, it is alleged, eloped in
her husbands absence. This was the state
OF affairs when Mr.. Miller, all unsuspect-
ing, returned home, only to find vacant
house, with not a yestigc OF furniture or
family. Mr.. Miller has but one eye, ana
Mr.. Mace has but one leg. Mrs. Miller, in
taking a new partner. while she has gained
an eve, has lost leg. \ fair exchange,
however, is norobbery.- Washington Post.

Cultivate d Sweet Voice.

There is no power of love so hard to
get and keep as kind voice A kind
hand is deaf and dumb. 1t NAV be
rough in flesh and blood vet do the
work of a soft heart, and do it with a
soft touch. But there is no one thing
that love so much needs as a sweet voice
to tell what it means and feels, and it is
hard to get it and keep it in the right
tone. One must start in youth and be
on the watch night and day, at work
and play, to get and keep voice that
shall speak ut all times the thought of a
kind heart. But this is the time when
sharp voice is most apt to be got.
You often hear boys and girls say words
at play with a quick. sharp tone. as ifit
were the snap of a whip. When one of
them gets vexed Won will hear voice
that sounds as if ii were made up of a
snarl, a whine and a bark. Such
voice often speaks worse than the heart
feels. 1t shows more ill-will in the
tone than in che words 1t is often in
mirth that one gets voice or a tone
that is sharp, and sticks to him through
life, and stirS up ill-wil and grief. and
falls like a drop of gall on the sweet
joys at home. Such as these get Il sharp
home voice for use and keep their best
voice for those they, meet elsewhere, Just
as they would serve their best cakes and
pies for guests and all their sour food
for their own board would say to all
boys and girls. Use your guests voice
at home" Watch it by the day as a
pearl of great price, for it will be worth
more to you in the days to come than
the best pearl hid in the sea A kind
voice is a iark's song to a hearth and
home. 1t is to the heart what light is to
the eve.-JeaciAh NessenQer.
