A. Montgomery, a prominent young lawyer of Cherry vole, and tbe Police Judge oi that city, died on last Saturday, af ter a brief but severe illness.

He was one of the leading members of the Montgomery delegation at the Republican State Convention, and whilst in Topeka we, learned to admire him for his sound judgment and honest manliness.

He aspired to be nominated for the Legislature from this District, end a bright and promising future was open before him. When We last grasped his friendly hand, be was the picture of health and bid fair to live long and happily. But death bas claimed him for one of its victims, and in this case it may be truly said that the grim monster "loves a shining mark." Peace to the ashes of our noble young friend.
