Sanderlin of Wayne, ho has been prominently mentioned! in con nection with the nomination for S.iate Auditor, will be found elsewhere in ihia issue. It is manly and;; uuiuis Ukable. ., New York has now adopted ari ar bor day, that is to say a day on which the citizens are expected, to ptarit trees with a view to the, maintenance Of. the forests, now all tooratiidly;dis- appearing. Other Stares NQrih Car olina included, which have not yet fallen into line, should lose no time in dping so. Mrs. Dr. Clemence Ja. Lpzier; the f rell-known advocate -ojweman suf- f Mgo and leader in the matter or the ,i medical education of women, died in f "New York the o,her day, after a few hours' illness of heart disease, so that it appears that the female physician , cn no more heal herself than:! her male professional brother can do like wise by mm sen. The first Question that presents it. I self to the general convention otj the '" Northern Methodist Church, now in session in New York, is that of the I admission of female delegates. teev eral stiongminded women arekqpcfc ing at the doors and so vigorously t r a to make themselves heard widely Meantime, the recognized? members of the convention are puzzled, and are anxiously considering what is to be done in the premises. Wfi have been favored with a copy in pamphlet form of the admirable . article in a late number of the North Carolina Teaohtr by Professor Geo f . Winston, of the State University, entitled Hints on Studying ?and Teaching Latin. It is short tand therefore necessarily only what pretends to ,be a series of sugges tions. But these suggestions will be found as full of pith as an egg is of meat. The article should be read. by Mb. Fcli.ee will be confirmed With out doubt and the Supremo Court will then have its full quota of mem bers. There will be Fuller, of i Illi nois; Mijler, of Bws; Field, of i'ali fornia; Bradley, of New Jersey; Har lan, of Kentucky; Matthews, of Ohio; Gray, of Massachusetts; Blatchford, of.Ne w-York, aad Lamar, of MIbs s- eippi, named in the order of date of commission. The West will hare four members of the court, the East three and the South two. . Politically there will be three Democrats I and six Republicans. President Cleve land will probably, however, bave to appoint, during the second term which ia reasonably assured to him, successors to Messrs Field, Bradley, Miller and Blatchford, who are re spectively 72, 75, 72 and 68 yeanf old, the age of retirement Wng 70. Of . these four Field is a Democrat and . Bradley, Miller and Blatchford are Republicans. .It is not improbable th4refore that before the end of; Mr. Cleveland's second term the political status of the court will be exactly re versed, standing six Democrats! and three Republicans. i: 1 m t m. j 1 i, TUB JUDICIAL MISD. We bote a suggestion In some of the papers to the effect that the f res ident ihould hardly have treated; the country to a surprise when so high an office as that of Chief Justice'; wan concerned, that the role should raiher be that the loftiest judicial p$siti$n in the country should be held as 'fa regard of the highest demonstrated capacity and 4he bett known service ia' that de partment," to use the words of the New York&oenwjy fott, the italics , being Our own. The question arises under this view, Who : wbuldj be chosen ' The way to fame! to? the wide demonstration of capacity! the becoming generally known, fpr aaw j;r lies almost exclusively i through te display of oratory and ora tory is not often found si a 'gift r 4n connection wilh the other igiftiiof a judicial mind. It is found lia fruch . cci nectici), indeed, with the'greftest ra-;ty. Jloroover the training neces sary to make an advocate is esten t Lilly different and away frpm that necessary to make a judge, "the good ad vocate is, in proportion toj bis ex--celletice in his special line, poor s a judge and, contrariwise, the good judge is a poor advocate. Pre-etnin-tnce in the qualities both of the advo cate and of the judge is almost an impossibility. Mr. Webster -was doubtless fully entitled to his place among the first of advocates.'! It will occur, however, to almost ;any one familiar with hia history ;tbat he would probably have made a judge scarcely of respectability.' & The reason ia simple enough. ;The judge has to weigh carefully eVery ' bit of evidence presented, giving' due importance to every point; he has to apply the law unwasped and cahnot permit himself to be -led away by fancy for any principle, any more ttihu by fear or lavoi, by passion or prejudice. He ia bound to have due regard for precedent and to: de cide with reference to the abstract I Vights of all parties. He is confined ' to the limits of pure reason. The advocate.on the other hand, ia trained ; to make light of precedent that bears 1 He endeavors erythiDg but the He gives full lloabntrns interest of L rein to bis; on and in pro portion as the wls of fancy plunge and career in STa.abd beauty he ire presses his hearejrvtevo'ably ana is likely to gain theotat which he aims. Tne morejprnft-cnt of speech he is the more attractive he is as au orator, naturally Mid the more widely known he becpn. II no riBtr to the height! of true oratory he wins fame and the trumpet which saund3 this makes itself heard from one end of iha land to the oth er. Such distinction, however, is gainea at tne expense ui tuo juuiciai faAnltv arirl ihn Winn whn wishes the one must in the majority of cases be content to g up hope of the other. ft '" Hence when jL'iudfee is wanted it is hardly wise to bJbwk him in the temple of fame.

In this way, probabh, Vj. Cleveland chose Mr. Fuller. The litter seems to bepre-emi nently ohe judicial mind. He has purpoBeavoided criminal practice m order tqltivate his bent in this di recticfilJj,!flence, while-comparatively unknowp to the country at large, lie is recognized by the members of the profession he adorns as peculiarly fit for thechief justiceship. Ice rresir dent Ws in all probability made no mistake, while he has afforded the ji another genuine snrpnsa. Particularly does this appear clear when we realize that Mr. Fuller is and always has been a staunch Demo crat. a Card. For the News and Obscrvf r. It has been, and is, the desire and purpose of the undersigned to main tain a modest and decorous attitude in the matter of the nomination for State Auditor by the Democratic State convention which meets on the 30th of May, preferring that his friends Bhouhi-present ao urge his claims rathfi thala seem in a public manntr to do b himself. The pubh cation of this cad, he hopes, will not be regarded as in enn' raven ti n of such a desire and purpose, in view of the following explanations respect fully submitted For . the past two months inquiries have come in irom an sections oi ine atate as to whether the writer de sires the .nomination for Auditor, and these inquiries have invariably been accompanied with the assurances: "We are for you against the field if you want the nomination. Pleajse let us hear from you." Duri same two months 1 have been pt closely confined, and my attention entirely absorbed, by the severe and, finally, fatal illness of a member of my family. It has been and is, there fore, utterly impossible for me to; write to my friends singly and nakei known to them my desires and wishes in the premises. Hence the necessity' for this card, which, as I am an Editor! (Agricultural) and bo, in sotue sort and measure, entitled to the courte rY&8rWy;fl:ask: thTi.j,1 the hands of the Democratic Press throughout the State. TwelvB years ago I was laid aside by overwork from the active du ties ofjthe ministry, with a permaneat embargo against engaging again in theological study or ministerial work, except in an incidental way, but with the full assuraace by eminent advis ers that I could very well engage in, and was fully competent for, any other sort of work. This withdrawal from the active-iETriistry was, and is, fully understood byXmy brethren, who make if no cause for censure but rather takef pleasure in' honoring me whenever opportunity presents, as I am still ever glad to serve them in any and every way I can' This ex planation is made for those who are disposed, to adopt the . sentiment of the old jproverb that "the shoemaker should stick to his last," and who loot wth no favor, as I do not, upon a voluntarily secularized m-niatry. The explanation is made, too, because, the Situation not beiDg under stood, this particular Objection was used effectively last year to ilefeat me for an office which I muc desired and which would have been peculiarly congenial to my tastes and training. After an enforced withdrawal from the active ministry in the manner stated I chose to be a farmer and1 that has been, and is, nay only aad exclusive occupa tion to date.

From the Boston Transcript. The Listener has heard a story of a lady's confusion on faster Sunday upon finding her pew occupied by "trampB", which may hear repeating. She had entered the church only to find her pew crowded with people, not one of whom she had ever seen before. Her vexation must have been great, for she summoned the usher, who happened to be at hand, and asked him, in a hoarse whisper, "Who is occupewing this pyt" The odd blunder put all the people in the vioinity under the .necessity of doub ling up to keep from profaning the sacred place with laughter. This mistake reminds the Listener of a somewhat similar one made by the good Bishop Eastburn at a crowded wedding where curious spectators at the back of the church so far forgot themselves aa to stand on the seats. The bishop, observing this scandal, paused in the service and said, in his most sormn tones: ' Remembering the sacred character of this house, let all who are present sit upon the floor and put their feet upon the seats.

Its small death rate shows great care in the selection of its insurers. Its rate of expense of conducting the business ba6 been very low. It exhibits a iargt-r percentage of surplus, as-computed by the New York insurance department, than any other Company in this State, sbow ingthe security and prosperity of the 'Company, and making certain the payment of claims which must occur in future year?. Attention is particularly called to the following facts regarding this Company : Its solid, simple organi zation. Its age. The great publicity and openness cf its affairs. The small death rate.
