The CoURrs-On Monday next the Circuit Court
will open, when the term commences. There is a
very heavy calendar, and arrear Of business, which
with the trial OF Polly Bodine, and some heavy
cases, will swell the amount Of business in the law
courts considerably The law courts, indeed,
have considerably increased in business during the
last six months, as the passage of the Bankrupt
Law of 1912 caused considerable stagnaton at that
period , but the revival of trade, and the conse-
quent operations IN business contracts, go. have
again increased litigation. We have it from high
authority in the Superior Court that its business
has considerably increased during the last six
months, and SO also the Common Pleas, which is
continually in session. The Court OF Chancery is
also busly engaged in suits, and some of them of
the most important character. We may mention
amongst them the case oil Crpgr VS.. Cruger, and
Letois Vs. Anthon, the decisions in which are look
ed to with deep interest. The United States
Courts, and the Marine Court also, do their share
Of business 1t lie not therefore, unsafe to say that
litigation is rapidly on the increase, and will in.
crease considerably when the bill for the pay of
jurors, now before the Legislature, shall become a
law.

New YORK Posr OFFIcE.-We have one or two
complaints TO make to the Post Master General
against the arrangements in the Post Office in this
city.
They are these One, that when the Eastern
Mail arrives at eight O'Clock in the morning we
receive our exchange newspapers between 10 and
Ii o'clock, two and three hours after they reach the
Post Office, when formerly that mail was assorted
in thirty minutes. We were yesterday told, at the
newspaper office, that the Eastern Mail would not
be assorted till one of the clerks came from his
breakfast. Another, that the Great Southern and
Western mails generally arrive here at three and a
half o'clock in the afternoon, and it is ate-very
late-in the afternoon before we get the st. Louis
| and Cincinnati papers and sometimes-indeed
often-times-we have to wait till the next day be-
| fore we get all our exchanges from that point.
This delay may do very well for monthly maya
zines, but for daily newspapers and merchants il is
extremely vexatious.
| These complaints have become general, and it
is partly owing to this inefciency on the part Of
the Post Office that we are compelled to run ex-
presses, and that such enterprisDg lines as Adams
IL Co. start into existence. We hope that Mr..
Polk and the Post Master General will take these
complaints into consideration, and see if some re-
| medy cannot be found
| If we have postmaster would it not be as well
to have him at his post attending to the business Of
/ his office?
