Wardlaw, long known iu this State as a learned lawyer, cmi ucut jurist, and accomplished gentle man. Wo have no particulars as yet, and only infer that his death was the scqueuee of protraotod weak health, which manifested itself more particular ly iu oue or two paralytic strokes within the pa*t two years, ltjs no little loss, that of a man trusted and honored throughout a- long and busy life iir exalted and responsible positious, and always cq.ua 1 to the highest' expectations A great aud good msu has gone, leaving the memory of good1 deeds, honest and valuable services to his State and people, and the fragrance of a character pore, unsullied and amiable in all the rela ribmr of" lifo. The following is a brief biography of the deceased Judge : "Judge David Louis Wardlaw was born in Abbeville Cc?hty, iu 179'J, and was at the timo of his doath seventy four years old. At an oarly age he entered th> Soutfi Carolina- College, where he graduated With distinguished honors. After leaving college, he was admitted tb t1?.o bar, and' iu 1-822-at tained considerable distinetion in the case of Ramsay vs. Marsh; which arose under the will of Henry Laurens, and iu which the s atutc of uses and trusts was first construed iu this State. At that time ho was a co partner of the late Governor Noble. In December, 183G, he was elected Speaker of the !lou-o ol Representatives, of which he had-boeu a member [lor several )oars, und ho con tinued to serve in this position, with distinguished ability, until December, loll, wheu be was elected to the bench, to succeed Judge Johnson. His career on the bench is well known in every part of tha Stale. It continued for over a quarter of a eeutury, and was ever marked by thoso ennobling frails of miud and heart which tended so much to elevate and dignify the judiciary of South ('uro Ii na io the palmy (luve of hur history. Iu speaking of one of his opinions, an unimtutor to one of tho lato editions of Chancellor Kent uses these words : 'Tho opinion of Justice Ward law is singularly learned und interest* ing; it is a remarkable example of his torical legal cruditiuu.' Hu was, iu all tho relations of li*e, a man ol uuswerv. ing integrity and elevated sentiment, nnd by his death has been removed another oue of those laild-murks which bind us to all that is good und glorious in the past history of our Stute."?Columbia Plui nix.
