D., President Jndge of the District Court fbr the CKy and county of Philadelphia. BY DAVID PAUTj BROWN, ESQ. The Hon. George SharswOod was born on the 7th of July, 1810, and was gradua ted at tho University of Pennsylvania, on tho 31st of July, 1828, with tho high est honors, deliveringtho Greek salutary, and manifesting a scholarship, of which his unceasing industry had given an ear ly earnest. In the month of August, of tho same year, he became a student In tho office of Mr. Mr. Joseph B. Ingersoli, and after a severe application to his stud ies, was admitted to practice on tho sth of September, 1831. Even after Mr. Sharswood’s admission he still blended his classical with his pro fessional duties, besides giving some at tention to the modern languages, and it may be truly observed of him, that it has seldom happened that such young shoul ders bore so wise a head. Ho was not deficient in genius, but his great quality consisted in rigid and inde fatigable labor. He was a model for a student. Always thoughtful, yet always cheerful; modest and retiring In his man ners, yet In a momenta! exigency not de ficient in Just reliance upon himself. We do not think he could ever have been an effective advocate. The turn of bis mind was too tranquil to enjoy or to endure tho tumult, agitation and excitement of Jury trials. But in an argument to the court in banc, upon a point of law, few men of his years would have been his equal— cool, calm, collected, ho had full control' of that abundant stock of knowledge which untiring perseverance and indus try had enabled him to accumulate. After remaining at the bar some five years, with about the usual share of pro fessional business, but with bright hopes clustering round him, ho was elected to tho Legislature on the 10th of October, 1837, where, it is sufficient to say, that ho justified the most sanguine hopes and ex pectations offals constituents. On the 9th - of October, 1838, he became one of tho Se lect Council, and on the 20th of Juno, 1841, was appointed secretary of the in vestigation committee of the stockholders of the Bank of the United States. On the 12th of October. 1841, he wos'Cleoted again to the Legislature, and continued in that body by another election, on the 11th of October, 1842. Scarcely had his legislative services terminated, when, on the Bth of April, in the year 1845, he re ceived the appointment of Judge of the District Court for the City aud County of Philadelphia, and on the Istof February, in the year 1848, became its President.— On the 14th of October, 1851. under the new Constitution, he was elected, by a large majority to the same judicial posi tion, which he had previously held from the Executive and Senate of the State.— He was commissioned on the Ist of De cember, 1851. In all those varied and highly honora ble and responsible.employments, it may be justly said, that he manifested the most abundant capacity and iitness for the du ties imposed upon him. But he more es pecially shone in bis judicial qualifica tions. Take him all in all, at bis time of* life, no bench in Pennsylvania has borne a more unblemished,'more competent, or more exemplary incumbent. Heisaman of kind, liberal, and honorable feelings, just such a man as you might suppose was born to be a judge; and if ho holds out os he has begun, and Heaven and his constituents continue him to his “three score years and ten,” we are not mistaken, ho will furnish the best practical proof of the folly of legislating judges outof office, at the expiration of sixty years. Since his presidency in the District Court, Judge Sharswood has been chosen Professor of Law In the Pennsylvania University, where he is an invaluable ac quisition. Apart from this duty, ho is engaged in delivering a course of elabor ate lectures before the Commercial Insti tute. And when it Is remembered that the court in which he presides sits ten months in a year, and Is continuously and laboriously occupied during all that time, in every diversity of trials, certain ly no better commentary can he required upon his exhaustless patience and ener gy of character. But to glance from the menial to the personal —Judge Sharswood is about live feet ten inches high, with a slight stoop of the sboulders t attributable, probably, to his studious pursuits throughout life. He has a benevolent face, an even tem per, great patience, and that—without which everything else is nothing—un compromising honesty. The honesty of a judge, however, is hardly necessary to be referred to,.as without it, no man is to be considered a judge. Ho is only a pa geant in the temple of justice. Judge Sharswood may’ be cited in sup port of our theory, that judges—all other quullfleationif being equal—taken- from t lie bar before they have been extensively engaged in practice, generally discharge their duties more satisfactorily than those who are hackneyed in litigation, and therefore hike partial or prejudiced views of a case. Unless the opposite sides of the issue exhibit great inequality In mer it and strength, we defy any man to per ceive, from the deportment of the judge, to what result his mind inclines. This is a great virtue in a judicial officer—noth ing is so unbecoming in authority, as to descend from its high calling into the arena of professional degiadiatlon, and advance gratuitous opinions, and join in a conflict between out-posts, before the mind entirely grasps the merits of the controversy. Counsel may be less obser vant of what they say or do, but a judge should permit no word to escape his lips during the progress of a trial, that ina\ lend to bias the jury, or throw reproaeii* on one party or the other. Words, us wi* have already said, are things, and Judi cial words are very operative, if not con trolling things, upon the minds of the “ sworn twelve,” who, having for the must part but little light iu themselves, look anxiously for the least glimmerof it that may be shed from tbe bench, and sometimes eveil convert that light Into darkness. Judge Sharswood puts his 'coses, of* course, very fairly to oajury ; ho seldom intrenches upon tbelr nghts to determine upon the facts, and when he charges up on the law, be does it with great cleatv ness, precision, and cogency, uud so us to be comprehended by any man of the mostorainary intelligence. Uls thoughts are not ouly perspicous, but the language in which they are clothed is so plain uud unaffected as to prevent all equivocation or misapprehension. The Mosses.— Who but Buskin could have written the following beautiful pas sage in regard to the Mosses? u And, os the earth’s first mercy, no they are its last gift to it. When ail oth er service Is vain, from plant nud tre«s, the soft mosses and gray lichen take up their watch by the headstone. The woods, the blossoms, the gift bearing grasses, have done their parts for a time; but these do service forever. Trees for the builder’s yan|,. flowers for the bird’s chamber, corn for the granary, moss for tho grave. Yet, os in one sense, the humblest, in another they arc the most honored of the curth-cuildreu. Unfa ding as motionless, the worm frets them not, and autumn wastes not. Strong in loveliness, they neither blanch In heat nor pine frost. To them, slow fingered, constant-hearted, intrusted the weaving of the dark, eternal tapestries of tho bills; to them, slow-penciled, iris-dyed, tho tender farming of their endless Imagery. Sharing the stillness of the uninterrupted rock, they share.also Us endurance; ami while the winds of departing spring scat- ‘ ter the white hawthorn blossoms like drifted snow, and summer dims on Ibex parched meadow, she drooping of itscow-Vn slip gold—far above, among tho moun tains, tho silver lichen spots rest, stnr- ;,J ' like, on tho stone; and the gathering : orange stain upon edge of yonder wes tern peakroffeotstbesuasetofathousand yeate," ’ '
