 showing an increase ef el l,SS3Ia Tue judi- lcial cxpenses the past year were &44.O35. .5l 1,
 being an increase over those of the preceding lyear of about SS.0OO, This vas owing in part at ieastto the repeat Of the law. which imposed tho cost in certain criminal eases upon towns and.coWnties. .es ssssssa boo | The subject of judicial expenses, is one
 which deserves much examiDatiyn. Little re- l stFaint is generally imposed hy conscientious scFUpies, where money can bs abstEacted from the public treasury. Possibly tie appointment of an auditor whose dufy il should be'io exs. anime and allow all bAls which he should deem legal, and report all claims of a doubt, i ing character to the General Assembly, might
 be somc. security. A subject however of fat l greater importance in felaton to courts, is the l delay of trial, in civil eases. The hordsllip resulting from this cause is1so great, as to in
 duce the Legislature at the last eosslon to give I priority to cases of q certain character. It is
 manifest however, that ti.is only aggravates I the evil in other instances. Although the
 number of terms ihc different courts have
 been from time To fime increased, no relief
 has yet been expeuenced.N lnpariictllaf cases the result of delay is, loss of testimony, in, creased expenses of litigation, ard prolou 2 ed i, anxiety as tn the issue But the greatest evil 1, to the community, consists in the postpone !. ment of other cases, most of which, would be 1. terminated at oncej if they could be reached \ The consequences is. that parties are kept out ] Iofs their money or other property, business is embarrassed, the estates of deceased and in solvent persons arc prevented from being get ! tfed, and general dissatisfaction with the laws is occasioned. In view of these facts, I do not hcsIiatc 10 recommend an addition 10
 the nan,ber ofjudges of the Supreme and
 Superior Courts. The expense of salaries
 would be more than comfcnsaicd by the de-
 crease Of judicial expenses. l have no doubt
 that the parties, 10 cases which are thus de. layed, would cteeffuily if they could, coniri.
 buie enough 10 pay all the expense of lhe ad
