MIR. Mitchell introduced his bill, which failed
last year, to Establish q Separate Court Of Ap-
peals." Your readers are already informed of the
provisions and design of this proposition, and
need scarcely reiterate on opinion in regard to it.
The popular voice, wherever it has been uttered,
has condemned it; and the chances for q success
full reconsideration are evidently slender. The
proposition, will be made by Mr.. Boyl-
stcn, for the establishment os an additional Law
Circuit; for the election of another Law Judge !;
and for reorganization of the Appeal Court so
as to require the attendance of six out Of the sew
en- Judges, giving each in turn a holiday season.

be procured to serve the State Mt any price; but
cheap men always contrive in the end, by fair
means or foul, to be we'll paid. Integrity AMI tai

tanned only at handsome price. Speaking Of
the Solicitors reminds me that the election for our
own and the Southern Circuit has been appointed
for tomorrow; together with that of Attorney
General, several Commissioners in Equity, and
the Treasurer of the Upper Division. Our elec-
ton will be closely contested and the result is yet
exceeding doubtful.
