THE SUPREME COURT.

7b the Editor qf the Chronicle.
'1 he subject of the appointment of
Cimf Justice cf the Supreme Court
of the TJ-;»5. attracts at this time
much of public attention. It justly
commands anxious consideration
from 11. at large and influential pro
fession from wlu.se ranks the ap
pointment must be; and also no lit
tle solictitude from the people. So
elevated and digniged is the position
end, so large is the influence which
Le who fills it must exert, as the
head cf one of the three grand de
partments of our Federal Govern-
I ment, that the popular mind throuli
! out the nation will pass its judgment
j and indulge its hopes or its appre
lh n sions its Approval or disapproval,
up*?u the selection when tti ide.
My purpose in addressing you i
; not to favor or postpone any one of
[the distinguished individuals whose
j names have been mentioned in con
nection with the position. These
I may le, and are admitted to be, wor
-1 thy and unexceptionable—entitled,
if you please, to high consideration
for valuable services done in the in-,
tt rest of party, or it may be for ser
vice done in the higher, nobler cause
of justice, and of tr th. Hut are in
dividual claims, no matter how great
the considerations which should
weigh first in determining this ques
tion. i
While f*ll admit that in lividual
interest infest \>o bOboi’di ate to the
general good, yet it is exceedingly
difficult in practice to observe the.
rule, and so to Resist the efiblle faci
imtioeff: of personal fa> or and regard
us to be able at all times, with un
clouded vision, to discern the line of
dpty.. ns-■ uvolved iu Uwa country’s
wellai cl 'y l,o,l
Washington was p e-eminont for
ill's high quality. From a stand
point rot so far as X seen p v
sen ted in the public prints, I propose
to show that this question resolves
jttelf at this time iDto dimensions of,
far greater magnitude than usual in
| the‘creation of a Chir f Justice, and
'that it rises in importance far above
any cons ipe ration of/personal merit,,,
j no matter how great.
As at. present organized, the ?ontb,
has no represeutive upon the Su
preme Court bench.
I In one of the throb oo- rdinate
departments cf the Government,
Uousisung of nine judges, twelve
| millions of people, and tffcar nine
hundred thousand square miJfes of
territory* capable cl sustaining well
fifty millions of people, have no rep
resentation —have no one to think to
discuss, *to pronounce the latv to
th.mi. Ido not ■refer to the paltry
consideration of not giving to the
South a share in these high offices,
!<hut I call the attention of the
thoughtful mind to the moral effect
of this imperfection in the . v upreme
Court Bench as at .present constitu
ted. Not the w ant of capacity and
integrity in the individual judges,
or any of them, but cheerfully con
ceding to them all the merit to
| which they are entitled; yet no one
I cf them is familliur by practice with
! the jurisprudence, with the profes
sional sentiment, thought, or habi
tudes of near one third of the nation
and no one of them is ideutili dwifch
that section by home interest, asso
ciation or education. Ti.ore is n«
: one w ho sympathises with ft in that
intimate sense which comes from
the inspiration of lifelong daily sur
roundings. None to stand for it
the guardian of its interest and the
protector of its iigh‘s in that great
tribunal which determines what is
the supreme law of the land.
q’be ‘results of th s wni j& felt in
c ncequ.nces rather tnuii perceived, n
' it* operations or apprehended from
! its premonitions. Any perpetual
•force moving within prescribed and
| constant channels cumulates great
• power and produces great results.—

and unrecognized by all save the
searemng eye of science, work out
wuh silent nut exhaustion energies
the and versified ani countless pneno
meca of nature, mhnitesimal process
working out gigantic results, impel
ling, molding, ordaining both the
iuw of their condition and taeii
1 changes. So in the moral world a
1 persistent performance force, though
ilt may be so remote ana noiseless
a* to escape observation and cenna
eration in its beginning, ana for long
in its operations, will in tira« work
out results deeply penetrating, *i

Divergences widen as extend
and eYditiwite in antagonisms, and
along the thread of this depair: are
from equality and right, tim j may
fatal to a h»rge section
and injUßiims to the entire nation.
There is uo other thing which pene
trates wivh suih enduring power ns
the .settee of injuviio-* done, in the
name and with the sanction of law.
This will be felt none the less by her
people, because the South has not
now the political prestige or power
to assert her claims to consideration
in this important matter. But tne
policy of rtstoratioh with equality
of right has been established by tiie
Q. vernwcnl and indorsed by the
people. n.nd tilt) sAmS spirit of
maguauimimity aud profound states
manship which established I’eptlbli
c&n governments for the Slates late
in rebellion and guaranteed t > them
their original sta us in the Union
prompts to a recognition of the
consideration due them as States ia
all the Departments of the Govern
ment.
This may be pill strongly by nri
example which will show the ine
quality of tho present organization
ol the Supreme Court. Suppi se the
six New England States, with New
"York, Pennsylvania* and New Jersey,
had no representation ou the Su
preme Court bench. The wrong
would be patent that all would
ondemn it and demand that it
should be remedied, bttt tnese Stales
contain, an ‘aggregate area of only
(iu round numbers) 140,000 squa e
miles, and a fraction over twelve
million of people, and they are
represented by four judges upon the
Supreme Court bench; whorefe-.
Alabama, Arkansas, «<e~>rgia, Fieri
da, xxeutucky, Louisiana, Maryland,
Missis ippi. North Carolina, outh
Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and
Virginia contain uji aie& of near
850,000 square miles, witnau agg. °>
gate population of more than eiev. n
millions, and have no ropreseutat.ve
in that great tribunal. It is true
that these latter have not the growth
or development of the Voider, and
(ransiently they La- e passed in o
political iiiconsnSefati©?•but no can
did mind at all familiar with the
subject will den}' tb;.t the elemental
wealth of the latter, their na ivu

The South is not ambitious m tnis
matter That piinciple once so potent
in the Southern imud has goae out,
extinguished in the fiery -ruci il ot
War. She does not wish the posi
tion* of Chief Justice, but she does
desire that the place be filled by one
of the present Judges, so that there
by ft. vacancy may be created wnich
can be filled by a Southern man.
This is desired in justice to the
South and for the good ■ f the whole
couutry. It is conseavative of he
great principle of equality of i®P re ~
santation, u, on which our political
institutions are bus.d, anil on which
alone they securely laid.
The gri at <*nd of go vein ment and
people in a national point of view

iu its strength abd elate with P 1,0 ®";
parity, may overlook this vita, tact,
but it can i*«t long be ignored. It
must find an issue in the mere efflux
of time, and the good or the evil
which will result from the po.i *y
adopted toward the South will not
be coufinei to the South: but, ex

HOW A SWINDLES OUKKATRB IX IXDIAXA |
AND HOW THU PKOVLS MBBLE.
From the Louisville Commercial,
July 26*
Tie American people sr j the most
gull ble ai*d the eanest to humbug
j in the woild, and the truth f this
j saying was verified in Jeffersonville
| Monday evening. At that time a
1 fellow named George W. Eaton, who
' lu.s traveled much.-fitatieued himself
near the poitoffice, on Spring street,
, and from «.is buggy comm mcedtulk
| ing about an au tion of greenbacks
to attract a crowd. Soon, many of
that class who would invest their hist
dollar in a lottery Scheme, of any
kind, was gathered about Eaton, and
he proceeded t-i auct on off a ten
dollar greenback, refusing to take
a bid over 1 ine dollars. This amount
was paid by Philip Lyon. He then
sold to oilier parties bills ass .-llows:
$5 for $1 50; $2 for $2 75; $1 for
75 cents. He then sold several
nickles at ten cents each to Peter
Grass, then gave Mr. Grass half
dollar for nothing* The fellow then
tossed a few nickles into the erbwd
to see them scramble for them.
'I bis was all done by way of
advertisement end to distract the
attention of the m ae thoughtful of
the crowd from the swindle about
so commence, 'fids consisted of
uri; e packages o! candy, which
baton proceeded to sell at 50 cents
a draw. S vr u prize packages
were r< a lily s-Id. The fellow then
drew forth a p:ic!:a 0 e of twenty en
velopes, wuicii were bid off by Perry
Gaither for $lO, but Perry failed to
ft.\d a single pilze in his package
Tlie next i.odge was the l-est -f all.
P king up three envelopes, he a c ree 1
io stilllliem forslo, wi.lithe, fivilege
of buying btu*k o >e of them 'or $9,50.
Eph Ke : gwin b >ught this package,
in and SelX g back one of the
envelopes to Eaton for $9,50, be
turn sold it o Pe'er Gras.B for $lO.
Uilf n e irg it li re was “nary’
cent 'everal other well?
known citiz tts invested itt ten dollai
parkiiges, but did not. find any prize.
The fel ow was not over half an
hour engaged selling, and during
the whole time he kept the crowd in
a roar by wagging his tongue. Afte
oobbli'Bg about ninety dollars in all
h-- suddenly closed up his boxes and
d.ove away, telling the crowd* tin t
it was sometimes necessary for him
to lc&ve a place in a hurry.
A few days previous the same man
was at Charlestown, and after taking
in about $?0 in the same manner,
very impudently told the crowd that
the money be obtained was for
charitable purposes, and when he
secured enough tie intended to build
a lunatic asylum for d—d fools, and,
extending a p*cAil& invitation to the
crowd to viut bis asylum, drov.
away, greatly to the amazement of
the Charlestonians,
The Ulue and the Grey.
Tlie tender recollections which
were revived by Decoration Day still
appear in the press of the Southern
.'tates. Occasionally we met with
noble words which should be ca'ght
up and repeated, North and South.

ple, speaking-l»f the brave General
W. H. Lyttle of Ohio, killed while
attempting to re-enforce Gen. 1 ho

He was killed, far in a l vance of
his command, while g d'antly leading
an assault upon our lines. His horse
bore his corps into oar lines, ftnd the
steed and his deal rider were both
captured, soon as it was known
that the author of that rare po.m, as

The district of London contains
more than three millions of inhabi

million. The ttuMbfir of arrests in
the London district was about eigh

seventy-five thousand. Jadgiug,
therefore, by the pi Opotion of ar
rests in the two cities, as compared
to poulati >n there WCl‘e during the
past year three times AS many offem

in London. If, t Jb, the police in
Nt w York were as strict ae they are
in London the exhibit would be still
more unfavorable. If, further, a
comparison were made of the num
ber of homicides and murders in
New York, as contracted with the
same class of crimes in London, the
difference in this respect would be
too startling to contemplute without
a sLudder. I'wenty-eight murderers

Worthless Manures. The N* C.
Agricultural Journal, reports the
trial in Kaleigh, of a case in the U.
3. Court, ihfe're'ating to farmers:
“One of the leading merchants of
Raleigh, purchased from a Gttano
OompaQy* in Baltimore, 17 tuns of
their article. rt was ordered for ft
farmer, who applied it to h s crops,
and finding no good results upon
his crop, afterwards had it Subjected
to analyses at the hands of Prof.
Liebig of Baltimore, ftnd Prof Koer,
of this city At the trial the evidence
of the planter and the analysis of
both of these gentlemen were pro
duced, and the fact was established
1 that the article contained 68 per
cent of sand. The fact Was estab
lished by Prof. Liebig that the arti
cle wa3 of no value whatever as a
manure. And in spite of the evi—
nee the court and jury decided that
