THE question of the election OF Cir
cult and County Judges is being con-
siderably agitated in connection with
the coming Constitutional Conven-
ton. There is quite a sentiment to
have them elected in some manner
other than by the Legislature. 1t is
being strongly advocated that they
disappointed by the Governor, subject
to confirmation by the State Senate.
This, it is thought, will remove them
fartherfr from politics than would cleo
tion by the people, and is in accord
ance with the way in which L. 5.
Supreme Court Judges are chosen
appointed by the President and con-
frmed by the Senate. The Norfolk
Landmark presents the following in
teresting statistics:
sit will surprise a good many of our
readers to learn that 30 States elect these
Judges by popular vote, 3 Others by the
vote of the people and the ratification of
the Governor, and by the Governors
appointment, subject to ratification by
the Senate. In one State-Connecticut-
the people, the Legislature and the Gov
ernor all take hand in the election of
Supreme Court. Judges. In only three
States is the election of these important
judicial officers turned over entirely to
the Legislature. Those three States are
Rhode Island, South Carolina and Vir-
ginia."

--TNTHE death Of Hon. John f. Massey
unique and noted figure has passed
from the arena of action. Mr.. Massey
was man possessed OF pecuharities
and eccentricities, but his ability was
acknowledged by all who came into
contact with him. His great powers
for debate were, perhaps, his strong
est point, while he had but few equals
as o stump-speaker. His connection
with and enthusiasm for the Read
ulster movement rendered him a
prominent figure in Virginia politics,
as well as did his alliance with the
ssBig Four" His career was somewhat
chequered, and he was, at times, the
target of harsh criticism; but his de-
votion and steadfastness to his con-
victions can but elicit the admiration
of all, as well as convince his critics
of his sincerity. Hefilled several posi-
lions of trust and responsibility, and
n harged his duties creditably. In
some respects he was a great man.
Mr Massey was born in Spotsylvania
county nearly eighty-four years ago.
May the mantle OF charity cover his
faults. and may his virtues shine after
him.
