Practice i'm the Circuit Court.


We requested to state the following points Of
practice uniformly pursued in the Circuit Court of this
county, for the Information Of parties Counsel practs
ing in the court are presumed TO understand them.
Ist The Court never extends favor to any party or
person, but adludges TO all their rights.
ID. No cause is displaced, or postponed by order Of
the Court
81. Parties, by agreement, may pass postpone
ease, called in its order
4th When cause stands the docket in order, for
trial. the time then being any passed postponed
may be called up by either party; Or alter the entire
docket has been called through either party may call
passed postponed cause: And if in either
several be called up, that which prior upon the
docket will have the preference as to being taken up
5th. cause passed postponed can be taken
up otherwise than above prescribed lest the rights
Of parties who ready when their is called in
its order be prelndiced thereby.
9th. cannot be postponed or passed at the
instance OF party Except for legal cause shown)
but only on the agreement OF both. But cause which
has been passed postponed may called up at proper
times above prescribed, by either party.
9Th. Postponmcnt of canse to future day will be
recognised by the Court agreement of the parties
that il the be called before that day, il shall be
passed aud stand among the postponed causes and no
otherwise.
The above practice applies only to common law
causes, already issue and is devised 10 exclude all
idea OF the Court granting time, delay, faUOr,
which is never done. II does ne begin apply 10
until the issue made up, unless the parties show
favor in reference making up the issue, in which
the Court viii mark the cause as postponed ms tier
Nor does it apply pending proceedings by attachment
enforce the attendance of Witnesses until the be
determined proveded each party be in the Of due
diligence
Sth. In making up issues, in common baw causes no
settled practice obtains, except that party not
show the other favor but upon the terms OF the
standing passed or postponed. t. ef
9Th. Chanecry causes prepared for hearing or
argument, aud set down for either. by successive mo-
tons made and heard in the mornings. They finally
heard, upon matter o law fact, at convenient time,
the parties being held bound to be always ready.
10Th. Hereafter issues at law, made IN chanceTy
causes and applications for divorce will he docketed with
the common law 10 be called in order.
1lh. Matters OF Naturalization heard IN the
mornings first alter the minutes have been read and
signed.
18th. The docket is always very large, and long
terms necessary. To prevent parties from extending
the unreasonaby by posponments, the Court has
resnlved 10 adjourn for the term whenever there is
matter ready for trial or hearing- not

Hear how the Albany New York Register, Mr.. Fill
more's organ, speaks OF Horace Greeley: sssesg se
The Wing party has everywhere lost ground in con-
sequnce of the deesabe pranks of Greeley during the
sraby in character in consequences Of his connection with
it. The Tribune says: a
If the Register has telescope of sufficient power to
discover the late Wing patty, he may perhaps be good
enough to tell us whether legaIized Rum-selling and
Slavery Extension among its principles II they
are, we don't belong TO it," t-i W " 2aa
Whether they or are not. trust the Tribuae
will no longer hang upon the skirts Of the party. Ii is
than pestiieace IL eagerly mounts every wild
ism OF the dayno matter what their character, how
odious their features may chance beand rides

spreading confusion IN IFS ranks and when they have
performed their offices for evil and been proved imprac-
cable their hair Drained rider tn, ows from
their backs and leaves those who have been cursed by
them to get rid Of them best they may. nas
1t will be day of rejoicing when Greeley formally
rds the Whig party Of his presence and leaves il for
ever He will leave It only for its good What little
service he has been the partyand in the earlier
days OF his he did do it sone service for which
he received his full reward--has been swallowed up in
the black depths of Abolitonsm Socialism, and forty
other isms Of like character lie is without the power
to do the party possible good now except by max
lug his exodus from IT, Our impression is that he has
made up his mind to depart for he is busy in laying
the foundations OF Northern Seward Abolition Party
and gIbbers glibly already of the late Whi9 party.

In recent speech at Worcester, Massachusetts,

Wing banner would now be found in the van fighting
against the accursed system of slavery"
This is the prevailing sentiment of the Scott Wings
everywhere at the North. They are, from association
lnclinaIion-we may say education partisans-nor
only prepared, but ready to merge with aboitonsm
