FIRST BRANCH.


Branch met Mr.. Walsh presented petit
ton protesting against the sale Of cattle in the
neighborbood of Centre Market; which was re-
ferred.
The President laid before the Branch COM
munication from Judge Nicholas Brice, in ODE
dencc to an order, asking for information in re-
ation TO the propriety OF recognizing the City
Court, and to the eXpediency of aboshing the
Saturday term, from which we make the fol-
lowing extract: "NVith regard to the question
relating generally to the expenses Of this tri-
bunal, they are of opinion that they can be ma
terially lessened without destroying its eiticen-
cy, if the State would resort to some mode of
coercing the collection of the tax for licenses
from delinquents, other than by indictments,
as all the costs of these indictments are charg
ed to the city when acquitted; and, when
not able to pay, are sent to jail at the expense
of the city. The Court feel it their duty to
recommend means to be adopted to obtain re-
peal of all the laws relating to the Saturday
Courts, and re-enact that of 1921, ch. 229, in
tended to give speedy trial to persons impris-
oned for want of bail, and release the city iiom
Jail expenses; leaving all other cases for exam
nation before the Grand Jury, as heretofore"
