change being the addition Of circuit to the South

against hasty act Of legislation, BY which Virginia
was, as it were bloed out of the judicial system OF the
T. s. in which she had occupied an elevated position
since the establishment Of the Government-Mr Ben

that existed for additional facilities TO the administration
of Justice in the West and Southwest. The hill was
also advocated BY Messrs Clay of Kentucky, Blu
