Yesterday in the Senate the Judiciary bill was
taken up, and Mr. Morgan continued his remarks in
which he proved that by the mode OF practice propo
sed by the substitute no right remedy whatever
was destroyed-that no action was abolished; that
the unnecessary distinctions between actions and the
forms of pleading, only dispensed With and that
in their stead plain. simple and uniform practice
was introduced. He in very able and conclusive
manner showed that the trial by Jury, was not as
had been commended restricted but that it was extern
ded to many heretofore tried BY single Judre
lie went into full and thorough examination
OF the practice opposed, and drew comparison be-
tween 1T and the present practice-shewed the great
superiority of that proposed-,hat it would be al
most impossible for any case to go off upon any
grounds other than its mertstha the practice would
be more convenient for all the purposes of Justice and
safer to- the parties He examined the bearings of
the new principles contained in the bill as it came
from the House of Delegates, and Showed that they
proposed to give up much of the principles of Chance
ry practice, and to transfer them to common law but
that In practice they would be found deceptive That
those principles borrowed from the other states
but the substance was not given up, us was in the
s. ateS from which the changes were taken
lie commended that if the % Judges should he an
pointed, and l2 of hem through all paris of the
state. they would combine an influence aud strength
superior to the Executive and Legislative branches
the Government, and destroy all responsibility fixed
by the constitution.
The technically and nicely of the common law
pleading he contended had done no GOOD hut that il
had done much evil Should the speech appear in the
public prints it will speak for Itself and prove clear
ly that the subject is one which challenges the at
tentIon OF the statesman and ofthe people.

SPEECH OF MIR. FOOT.

Oh, the General appropriation Bill, in the Senate
ofthe United States.
Mr.. Foot said, We are indeed fallen on evil
times. The application of the searching ope-
ration, +" mentioned by General Jackson in his In
augural Address, has become indispensable To
save the treasury from Bankruptcy. The Syren

lost lis fascinating charms. Broad and bold as
-sertions will no longer be received as proof OF
economy, while the public documents prove them

by these hackneyed terms nor can the present
Administration be screened from censure by
sharging their predecessors with ''wastefnl ex-
travaeaHce,' when the documents furnish con-
vincng proof. that the present is. the most extra
VACANT administration which has ever welded the
destinies of the nation. lie called the attention
of the Senate to the documents in proof of his as

This extraordinary increase Of expenditure

any Senator doubts the fact, let him examine the
printed documents, and he will hCd the state
ment correct--thc statement before hun was Ia
ken from those documents.
Do YOU ask how can these things be? 1t is ca
sily accounted for by the increased expenses In

by creating new otiices-by Increasing salaries
and contingent expenses-by increasing the num-
Der of clcrks-and by every other possible means
for rewardiug po!,ricai parisans. Fifty-two ad-
ditionai pages in the Blue Book. OF names Of Off

of this economic al Admlnistration--the Office Of
Solicitor Of the Treasury, created at the last SEES
sion. to perform part Of the duties of the Fifth
