~ 1t has always been usual for the party
which has the majority in either branch of our State
Legislature, to claim the Speakership and we were
not therefore, surprised at the election of Mr.. Bax
ter over Mr.. Dobbin. This was simply party
triumph in matter involving the distribution of
political power but we must say we were not pre-
pared to see Perrin Busbee, Esq, Principal Clerk
of the Commons, prescribed from office. The Of
fee of Clerk is purely ministerial. He exerts no
political influence, and it is therefore, not material
whether he be Wing or Democrat. Mr. Bus
bee had made, as Twill admit, a most acceptable
Clerk. BE was prompt intelligent, and remarka-
bly, correct in the discharge of his duties and he
has been turned out purely on party grounds, to
make room for gentleman, who, although he may
discharge the duties devolved upon him satisfacto-
rly to the House and creditably to himself was
nevertheless unknown to most of the members, and
certainly untried. The proposition of Mr.. Blow,
to compromise the matter by appointing Mr.. Bus
bee and Mr.. Dodge, was alike just and fair, under
the circumstances; but the majority, having been
previously talked up to it, stood forward, like a
wall of BRASS for "the spoils". 1t was known that
members were absent, whose votes might have Sc
cured the election of Mr.. Busbee, and who were
expected to arrive the next day but this was Of
avail-the edict had gone forth-the axe fell, and
one more Wing got his reward.
Let the people remember these things when they
come to deal out justice to the Scott leaders at the
polls.

ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING.

The Pierce and King Club Of this City had q
most enthusiastic and interesting meeting on Mon.
day evening last In the absence Of the President,
Perrin Busbee, Esq, took the Chair, and called
the meeting to order, Messs. G.. T. Cooke and
M. A. Bledsoe acting as Secretaries
The meeting was addressed briefly and in a
spirited and effective manner, by Samuel P. Hill,
Esq, Of Caswell; after which w: w. Avery. Esq,
Of Burke, was called out. He spoke more at length
and with his accustomed clearness and force He
communicated cheering tidings from the blue
mountains of the West. He assured the meet
ing that the Democracy Of the West was united to
man on Pierce and King, and would roll up a
most satisfactory vote on the I'd of November. Mr..
Hill and Mr.. Avery were warmly received and
cheered by the assembled Democracy.
The Hon. James G. Dobbin, the Democratic
Elector for the State at large, having been waited
on by a Committee, appeared before the meeting,
and was greeted with the most enthusiastic ap-
plause. He spoke for an hour and half in his
best manner, rivettng the attention of all, rousing
the Democracy by his clarion tones, and forcing
conviction on doubling Wing minds. Our en-
gagements were of such a character as to prevent
us from hearing the whole of his speech but we
learn that his effort on the occasion was in every
respect worthy of his high reputation as public
speaker.
The Pierce and King Club will meet again on
Wednesday evening next, in the Court House. In
teresting and able addresses may be expected.

WARRINGTON, January 20, 1907
Messrs. LITTLE & BRowS: think you have laid
tbc profession under great obligations, in the re-
publication of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity in this country.
The low price at which the volumes are offered T..
will enable the bar generally in this way TO fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re
ports, of which many of them have heretofore been
deprived. They will thus have a ready access to
the decisions of courts sitting at the fountain
head Of the law, whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systems, more less modi-
fed, daily administered by the courts of this
try. And, however modified these systems ma Y
bc, il il manifest that these decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation OF most of the
cases arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
THE country with the cases iMMEpTATELy AFTER
THE PUBLicATroS IN EsGIAND, A CONSIDERATIONS
OF THE FIRST inPoRTAScE; for, if the Reports OF
cases decided are of any value the sooner they
are in the hands OF the profession the better. ]
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commensurate with the merit Of the enter
price.
am, with great respect, your obcdont servant,
