THE JUDICIARY.

As nothing can be more important to society
than the administration ofits laws, which of course
depends upon their onstru ction, we lay before
our readers the provisions which the Committee of
the whole have agreed to embody in the new con-
stitution. 1t will be perceived that an entire
change is proposed in our present judicial sys-
tenn. The Judges Of the Supreme Court are to be
elected severaly from five great sections, by the
voters thereof respectively; to hold office for twelve
years; and to have jurisdiction generally only
in cases where the amount involved reaches
$500. The Cicnit Judges are to be elected by
the people for eight years. intermediate between
the Circuit Court and the Court of Appeals, the
plan provides for District Courts, one of which is
10 be held annually in each of ten districts. The
District Court is to consist of the Judges If the
Circuits composing the District, and the Judge
of the Court of Appeals residing in the Section
of which the D strict forms part. The object of
this intermediate Court is to determine (not final
ly) appeals from decisions of the Circuit Courts,
and its operation will, of course, greatly diminish
the business of the Court of Appeals.
Confessing the crudeness of our impressions
on this weigh:y subject we incline to the opinion
that the new system is great Improvement upon
the DID, save in the mode of electng Judges of
the Supreme Court. The uncloggng of the bur-
densome docket of that Court, and the requirement
upon the Judges to sit at nisi prus in the District
Courts, seem to us TO be hopeful changes.

Ordinances in l776 and 1891

1t occurs TO us that it would be occupation of the
mind peculiarly appropriate to the anniversary of the
Declaration of our National Independence, for every
citizen who may be disposed deprecate the blessings
of our present Government take in hand that memo-
rabe declaration, and read carefully the list of
repeated injuries and usurpatons all having in direct
object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over
these States, for which our ancestors soemny pro-
claimed the colonies independent There is not in the
whole catalogue, one subject of complaint VIII ch
can be said to exist in the practice of our present
Federal Government On the contrary, it will
strike the reader most forcibly that the people OF
every State now enjoy every immunity and exer.
else every light the denial of which, by George the
Third, was, in 776 enumerated amongst the causes OF
our separation from Great Britain Ii this can be said
of the Government of Union, is it not still WORTHY
to be cherished, and credly preserved Let Ameri-
can citizens this day sobery contemplate the amplitude
of the rights secured 10 them rights which are &C
knowledged to no other peope on the earth-and the
National Anniversary may not be unattended by whole
some Influences.

SENATOR SEWARD IN MIcHIcAN.-One ]. w.
Scott and ''nlnety-one Others" in Adrian, Michi-

A. Seward-~[ju just now at Detroit defending the
Railroad conspiraors requesting him to pay
them visit, and to make speech 'upon the
subject now occupying the public mind" (The
Fugitive Slave Law, it is presumed to be.) The
Senator regrets he cannot comply, by reason of
his professional engagements, but expresses the
hope that he will one day be able to meet his
friends at Adrian. AS for his opinions upon the
questions of the day, he says, these are already
well enough known to need further exposition on
his part.-ETpreSS.

EXTRAORDINARY Case.-A correspondents on
whose accuracy we rely implicitly, relates the
following extraordinary freak of nature:
Nearly two years ago, a very respectable lady
of this city, then seventy -four years ofage, had
fit of SICKNESS to degree that her life was
despared OF for four or five days During her sick
ness, her hair, which was rather thin and some
what grey, came entirely off her head except a
very little near the back part of her neck. About
year since indications were shown of new
growth of hair, which has continued to grow up
to this time. Her head is now, at seventy-sx years
of age, entirely covered with hair, about seven
inches long, entirely free from any grey. of dark
chestnut color, and of healthy and glossy appear
ance as that of most young ladies' of sixteen years
of age. The writer of this is not aware that any
particular application has been made to her head
