The National Intolligcnccr OF the 18th
inst. states that the amendments of the SEN
ate to the Judiciary Bill came up yester-

will be revived, and may possibly be so far
extended as to preclude any final DISPOSE
ton of the bill during the present session.
Tho amendments of the Senate, it will be
rccollected by our readers, alter the bill in
two material features. The first is a new
arrangement OF the Circuits, by which Ohio

proposed in the bill from the House.; and
the second is a provision which makes it
obligatory on each Judge in the Western
Circuits to reside within his W Circuit.
The Judiciary Committee OF the House
arc unanimous in their opposition to these
amcndments-and there is little probybili-
ty, we think, that the House will concur in
them; and should the Senate finally ad-
here, as from the strong vote in that body
for the amendments, would seem probable,
| the bill must be lost.
