He was to determine who were qualified to serve in that charac- ter, and for that purpose whether they possessed sound judgment and were free from legal exceptions. The law under wiiich he acted had been in force for many years, and had been always considered b}" the judicial authorities of Virginia to be in conformity with its constitution, which inhibits the legislature from requiring of its judges any other than judi- cial duties.
