every man, ror can l expect to reach that
state of perfection when [ will make no
mistakes. Ny Judgment will, 10 doubt,
often be defective, and will merit, as

exalted me to my high station is, that
they will sit in honest judgment upon my
acts, never condemn me without full in
formation, and then if compelled to hold
my Judgment faulty, accord to me sia-

In assuming my duties I succeed a

superior Judgment, and under which our
State has been peculiarly prosperous and
happy. He retire5 with th e pIaudits and

to await the summons "to cross over the

year by year, the numbers are fast dwiu-
ding. The youngest enlisted in the cause
which made Virginia bleed, dotted her
hillsides and her lowlands with graves,
aud pantled her home in the drapery of
sorrow, who survive are no longer young,
but their heads are silvered; the old men
of the army have been laid to rest in
their martial glorY, while the middle-aged
