Justices Of the Peace have civil and
criminal jurisdiction depending on an
Client usage, OF by authority specially
given them BY acts or laws Of the le8is-
lature. They are constituted BY COM
mission under the seal ofthe Common
wealth, by the Governor Cor the time
being, %i;h advice Of Council for the
term Of ecren years, in case they shall
50 long behave well in doing the duties
Of the Office.
Prior 10 the adoption Of tAe present
constitution in 1880, Justices commits
si2ns were during Hft, determinable
however, Oh misbehaviour and all
justices. Of the peace had authority to
sill in tic general sessions Of the peace,
sometimes denominated quarter ses-
sions, from their being usually held
tour times year, in the county. a
commission uscd-to issue naming al
the persons, authorized 70 sit in the
court Of sessions and directed that
certain individuals BY naHlp- with any
other two Of the Justices named in the
same commission, should constitute a
court Of general sessions Of the peace.
And as anCiently the commissions were
made out il latin, the words made use
OF in them, quorum anus lin English,

preston, whereby, in many statutes,
particular powers were given aud grant
Cd 10 justices Of the quorum, which JUS
tees of the peace simply were not en-
powered to do. Besides the general
commission, which was always lodged
with tie clerk Of the peace, partICu-
lar commission issued to every justice,
by which he always might determine
his power and authority, and also whe-
Their he WAS one OF the persons denomi-
mated of the quorum or not, but refer
ing to the general commission in custo-
dy of the clerk ofthe peace. And be-
fore the American revolution il was not
unusual. upon the appointment OF one
OF more justices in any county, to have
the general commission transmitted to
the governor and council, to have the
names of such new appointed justices
added thereto, by the secretary and
until such insertion was made, it was
supposed the new made justices had nc
authority TO sit in sessions

J ing to ancient usage, could with pro-
priety issue and it's supposed none
have since issued, Notwithstanding all
the commissions to individual justices
have invariably referred to the general
commission for holding a court OF gen
eral sessions Of the peace.
Certain duties are by particular stat
utes committed to two justices Of the
quorum, or to two justices Of the peace

prisoner in jail on execution for debt,
to the benefit Of the law, when unable
to support himself in prison; taking
dispositions in perpctuam ; or making
enquiry Of forcible entry and detainure,
sc. &c.
A question arises, since the addition
al act has come into operation respect
ing the court Of sessions in the several
counties, limiting the number to three,
| five or seven, be specially appointed apd
commissioned for that purpose. WHO
ARE JUSTICES OF THE QUORUM
and are legally authorised 70 perform
the duties prescribed Tor justices Of the
quorum only 10 do and perform
If occording to the preceding des
cription, Justice Of the quorum is ne
ctssarily constituent member Of the
court OF general sessions OF the peace (:
none but those VINO are, or may be spe-
cially commissioned under thelate addi-
tional act, can legally exercise the pow
er and authority Of a justice Of the quo
rum, the form, tenor or expressions I'D
their present commissions to the con-
trary Notwithstanding And indeed q
question may De made, when the per-
sons appointed under the late statute in
any particular county to hold court Of
sessions, not to exceed three in num-
ber-zghich Of the justices mus appoint
Cd, are justices Of the quor7m--ior any
three Of the 4, S, or z persons specially
commissioned to hold sessions of the
peace, are by the late additional statute
to make court
This being a matter not contemplated
when the late additional statute was
made, il is probable, will receive legis-
latiye explanation.
