DAVIS rs. GooDEow. The Black fc,lcro.
democracy have teen circulating a report
that Judcc Goo,lenow had made decision
contrary 10 that Of Judge Davis, and as il
was generally understood that he was the
judge with whom Mr.. Davi, consulted, the
inference evidently intended, to be drawn
from the report, was that Judge G)odcnow
had changed his opinion, in difference to the
will OF the Governor.
\, the opening term Of the supreme Court
at Bath, the old sheriff presented a condl-
tioual protest, stating that hc would not
force a decision. Judge Goolenow remark.
81 that il was not essential that the natter
should be decided by him. lie woald rc-
mark, however, that he had examined the
question before Coy. Wells course was
known, anl had come to the conclusion that
the amendments were part Of the Consti.
tdtion, when a majority Of the votes were as
certaincd u be in favor Of the change, and
intimated that, although he had not chang
Ell that opinion, his mind was open to argu-
meut, thus completely yindicating the in.
dependence OF his position.
