sixty, and Judge fancy was thirty years
bis senior when be retired from the
bench. Judge Nelson was seventy-seven
and Judge Cranch nearly that when they
retired, but these eminent Judges re-
tanned their mental faculties to the last
moment. Though Judge Taney had
really attained bis second childhood, he
bad tie sagacity to conceal it while on
the bench, and it was only when Con-
greIs made provision for judicial sensili-
ty, that be became conscious that he was
getting beyond the days of usefulness.
The Chief Justice of our Supreme
Conrt gets ten thousand five hundred
dollars per year, while the Associate
Judges receive ten thousand collars.
The five hundred dollars addition is not
because of the additional dignity that
attaches to the position, but because the
Chief Justice really does moro work than
any of his brethern. For instance, all
the motions that are made in court on
motion day (Monday,) have to be con-
sidered aud determined upon by the
Chi-f Justice alone, besides which lie is
expected to bear his full share of the
other work Of the court.
In the matter of the writing and de-
livery of the opinions of TIE court theie
is as much variance in the manner OF
these nine Judges as one could possibly
conceive. While Stanley Matthews and
Harlan are verbose, and exhaust both the
law and the patience of the court in the
reading Of their opinions. Grey, Blatch-
ford, Bradley and Miller arrive directly
at the point and strike the marrow of
the issues involved without circumlocu,
ton or other Judicial travail, Justice
Gray particularly, must be cited as an
exception to the rule of those Judges WHO
read their opinions from manuscript, be-
cause, although bis opinions are written,
they are delivered off hand in an easy
style that gently let's dow q

President Grant, be peremptorily refused
and told the President that he had at that

Again there are those who figure
it out this move may in some way an
tagonize Jones and Fair and there
for they have concluded to remain
on the back ground and see how the
cat jumps.
No doubt some State officers have
reached this conclusion.
We are informed that the only
county officer present at the meeting
last Saturday night was Judge Ed
wards, and the only State officer was
John Dolmer.
1t is a pretty time of day if the
citizens Of town cannot make
public move without they get the
cue from their public servants. 1t

macy for dozen little cliques in

against each other at the expense
of the interest of the city and their
own.
1t can only result in the ultimate
ruin of the town and everybody in
it.

have been raised and not one man
but lobby, would have by this time
been at Washington clanoring for
