on the Supreme Bench.

court of the United States sat with a
full bench to-day, for the first time since

reached the capitol little after IL
o'clock this morning and proceeded to
the justices room of the supreme court,
where the oath of office-the ordinary
modified Oath-waS administered to him
in private. The judicial oath was ad-
miniStered in public Immediately after
the day session was opened. The small
space reserved for the general public
was crowded with strangers. but the
space within the enclosure, reserved for
the bar, contained not more than the
usual number of lawyers. Among the
people of note present were the attor-
ney general aud the new secretary of
the interior, Mr.. Villas. The judges, in
their black silk robes, filed into the
chamber in solemn procession at IL
O'Clock, and the aSSemblage, at the tap
of the marShal'S gavel, rose respectfully
and remained standing until the mem
berS of the court had taken their places.
Mr.. Lamar, clad in well-fitting suit of
black, followed the court and
tOOh lliS oCtll OItIh MChcD-
ny, at the right of the bench.
The chief justice announced that the
first proceedings of the court would be
the reeding Of the commission of Mr..
Lamar and the administration of the
oath. The commission was thereupon
handed to the clerk, who read it, after
which Mr.. Lamar read impressively
from manuscript the judicial oath as
follows:
81, l.. Q. c. Lamar, do solemnly swear
that l will administer justice without
respect to persons and do equal right to
the poor and to the rich, and that | will
faithfully and impartially discharge and
perform all the duties incumbent upon
me as associate justice of the supreme
court of the United States according to
the best of my ability and understand
ing, agreeable to the constitution and
laws of the United States, so help me

He took the Bible as he uttered the
last sentence and SOlemnly kissed it.
He was then escorted behind the screen,
which extends the length of the bench
behind the chairs of the justices, and
after minutes delay reappeared at the
left. clad in new flowing robe of glossy
black silk. The court and the assem-
blage arose; the new Judge bowed to
his associates. and then to the bar and
the public and took his seat in the
chair of the junior justice at the ex-

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1S.-Gen. William
Il. Sherman is the most prominent vet
eran whose letter reached Congressman
Macdonald to-day. commencing him
for his recently introduced pension
bills. Letters come from all parts of
the Union thanking him for his work
and commencing his bill. Gen. Sher-
man most warmly and cordially en-
'dorseS the measure. 1t also has the APP
proyal of Gen. Sheridan, Gen. ROSecranS
and other equally distinguished veter-
ans. Hundreds of pension bills have
been introduced in both houses, but no
one of them exactly hits as many birds
as Judge MacDonald's. Its effect is to
liberalize the rules of evidence in pen
sion cases so that thousands of worthy
suppliants, whose petitions have been
rejected because their comrades were
dead or could not be found. will be
treated like brave and truthful men. and
their evidence. supported by evidence OF
disability, will suffice TO give them their
dues.
