SATURDAY, SEPT. 80, 1854.
Court.

JOUII.
The September Term OF our Court
held longer than usual but it is now
closed no one sent to the penitentiary.
The caters OF lost corners threshing
rnachines-delacing school houses, and
other matters OF disturbance among neigh
bors, have all been settled.
His Hon. Judge Booth presided with
usual dignity and precision, giving tone
and character to our Court, and, as usual,
prompt and efficient in the discharge Of
hls duty. .... s.. .... .... .
We are sorry 10 say that the bar ex-
hibited some dissatisfaction with his Hon
or, and we hope we viii no, reflect upon
his Honor any disrespect by stating il.
Some of the slack members think him
too hasty; this with us is comu,e ndable
instead OF otherwise as what they esteem
haste we call promp,ness, and promptness
is desirable i'm an incumben, of the bench.
Again, to use the expression, it is said
she gets into the jury box and usurps
command ofthe corps. and does not al
low the jury to do their share of talking,
and that he decides instanser upon hear
ing the first argument-changes At the
second, and gets logged at the third.
This is doing the Judge gross injustice.
Lawyers sometimes forget or neg lect to
allege or prove the Se,ester. The &ien-
ter should be established; it is fatal with
out the Scienicr when it is an ingredient.
and in such cases without the Scienter,
they most empha,ically cannot recover
1t is the Lawyers faul, and not the
Judges. Lawyers will wrangle and tri-
fe away the time, and should be checked
Up by the Judge. All minds cannot view
| s1aings alike, and should make eoacess-
ions when proper, and not let their own
views prejudice them against Others who
view matters differently. The Judge is
stirring, ready man, and is liable 10 err
as all other Judges before him have done
but he should not be condemned too rasa-
| ly.

paper has the following: twenty-five
years ago. marriage took place in this
city which from some cause or other was
invalidated, and the par les separated.
The lady went to India and married an
officer, who subsequently rose to the rank
of general in the army, and on his
death bequeathed large fortune to his
widow. The gentleman also married,
and about year since, his wife on dis
covering various old love letters, &C., in
his possession, proposed to burn them /:
but, fortunately, as will be seen. did not
do so. In due course Of time the first
wife died, and left to him who had once
been her husband, no less than f20, 900,
