IRWU^^iaiLlL^^IV. Judge William Smith. Judge O'Ncall furnishes for the Yorkville Knquiwr a sketch of Judge Smith, from which we innke an extract: "William Smith was elected a Judge on the 28th of June, 1K0M, in the place of Judge Trczovaut, who had died the lA hru- j arv Drcci'dintr. He was President of (In* . Senate wlu'n elected, and wan a lawyer in tlx- full tide of successful practice on the .Middle, now called tlio Northern Circuit. lie was horn in North Carolina, but When or where, 1 have been unable to ascertain. Jle migrated to South Carolina,and settled in York district, when very young and poor. 4 I He way educated in part, probably, hv i tlio Rov. Mr. Alexander, the ablo 1 dier j and minister of the Presbyterian faith, at Wullook's (.'reek, and finished his course at ! the Mount. Zion College, Winnsboro.'? j While at Mr. Alexander's school, he met : with Gen. Jackson a? a school-mate, and ! no doubt, when the two noble Romans met J .it Washington, as President of the I'nited States and Senator from ."South Carolina, they met as friends in early life, and friends in all the fierce political strifes to which our country had been and was then subjected. At thirty years of age, .Mr. Smith began the study of the law, and us three years was then the proscribed term of study for the graduate of a College, lie must have noon miny-uiree years 01 ago, when admitted to the bar. Ho represented his early life to an intimate friend?Col. Thomas Williams, for- j merly of York, now of Montgomery, Alabama?''as wild, reckless, intemperate, rude and boisterous, yet resolute and determined" lie had the ran; blessing to win the love j of one of the purest, mildest and best wo-I men, whose character has ever been pre- } Rented to the writer. He married Mnrga- j ret Duff. In his worst days, she never up- i braided him by word, look or posture, 1 Mit ' always met hint as if ho was one of tlie kind est and bc.it of husband*. This course on | her part humbled him, and umde him weep like :? child. This sentence, it is hoped, will he vemdhiboivMl, was the language of J nd- e Smith to the friend already named, and to those who knew the Htern, unhendinir nnblin ftlwr.ietor of fclio JhHi'a. it, will i n i - - - - ?n~~i ' | teach ;i lesson of how much a p;itieiit woman's lnvc canaccomplish. lie wasat last reformed by an instanco of her patient love kimI devotion, ah ho himself told it: Tho evening hefure the Keturn Day of the. Court of Common Pleas for York District, a client called with Hfty notes to he put in suit. Mr. Smith was not in his office?he was on what is now fashionably n fllirco n Mru Umitii received the noU 8, and sat down in the office to the wovk of tanning the writs nnd pix>oes>jex.

This bowed the strong man, "he fell on his knees, implored her pardon, ' and then and there.faithfully promised her ! never fo drink another drop while he lived" ' This* i?romi.?e," n?avs mv friend Col.

The j reformation of such a man as William i Smith is a ohaplet of glory w.ueh few wo- , liicn have boon permitted to wear. To the people of South Carolina, and especially of I Vork District, certainlv nu stronger area- i incut iii favor of tempcrancc, total abstinence. ticed lie given. Judge Smith was nn able, but ruthcr tyrannical .Judge. All stood in awe of him. lie committed the captain of a volunteer company in Charleston for disturbing the court by persisting to cause his drum to be boat after be h id been ordered to desist.? I I n nnnuUnil flull - I 1JV/ <|uuon\ii, o J ?l I llii Ul l'7 i'tj I" V * y t't'fl I If' around tlie Southern Circuit because new jury lists had not been made out within three years, and from them the jurors drawn and summoned. This was h groat legd blunder, and worked great delay'in the ad- I ministration ofjustice. Still no one doubt- ! ed the purity of the Judge, although beneh ! and bar condemned the act us high-handed j and uncalled for. Judge Smith possessed a wonderfn mem- , ory ; una i nave oitcn heard it said that lie reported to the Constitutional Court the ! ease of the State vis. Floy anil llochelle, without reference to his notes. " 1 le never 1 forjiot the faces of men or their peculiar traits of character." if lie knew a man once, ho knew him ever after, and neither | the lapse of time, nor the place where h" miuht moot him, however little expected, j nusieu or ucccivcd nun. As tin illustration tlu: following incident may be noted, lie ' had b en employed, many years before, to ; defend a nvm at I'inckney or Spartanburg, j for killing a horse in the niglit time, which ' by our .statute is a clergyable felony. 11 is client did not meet his trial?he tied the State. If the ease oceuipnl during the existence* nf't.hrt Cnui'l nf I'liu 1-nnv uf In-mf twenty years must have coino and goucj | and if at Spartanburg, :it least tt*?i years i must have elapsed before Judge Smith en- ! tcrcd Congress as a Senator from South Carolina. Walking into the Hall of the: House of Ueprescnt.itivcfl soon after he had taken his seat as Senator, he discovered liis ! client in the poison of John Alexander, ! commonly called the "Jiuffalo of the West," j sitting as n member from Ohio. In Spartanburg the name was usually called Klehinnr, and so the Judge addressed him.? | The member professed not to know him.? J The Judge, with one of his oaths, swore i he should know, tolling him he had his 1 note at home for 8100. and that he should ! pay it. lie wrote-to his wife to send the note, and by the return mail it came, and ; Mr. Alexander admitted the acquaintance i by paying1 the note. The speeches of his political opponents | he never forgot, and often to their d:smav ! the Judge from the bottom of his old 11 m 1 k ' fished up some speech, or speeches, entire- ! ly at war with their present views.
