Minnesota will be an exception, from the
fact that her more clsyey soil is not well
adapted for their laying operations. The
sandy soil of the upper country, particu-

their wants. Their eggs are easily de-
posted in it, and the spring sun soon
and rapidly warns them into life. Ii is
our earnest hope and trust that southern

J. B. Dom, Esq.-Dear Sir II
have received letters from different parts
Of my District, enquiring whether the
fall terms Of the Court would be held
under the new, or under the old law, or,
in other words, when they would be held.
In order to be able to answer these in
quil'ies as correctly as possible, wrote
to The Secretary of State to ascertain
whether the new law would be publish
ed so as to take effect before the times
fixed for holding the Courts in that law.
The letter given bcss5w from the Sccre-
tary will give those interested all the in
formation upon the subject which it has
been in my power. to procure. The old
law gave the counties of Delaware, Bu-
chanan and Blackhawk but two or three
days each, time much too short to dis
pose of the business, and fixed it at a
season of the year when the streams were
impossible with safety and the weather
inclement, but our worthy and efficient
member, Mr.. Barker, procured the pas
sage of new bill, giving the Court more
time in these counties, and pleasanter
season for travelling. 1t will be much to
be regretted if the new law shall not be
in effect before the fall terms. Under
the laws at present in force, the Judges
of the District Courts have no power to
call special terms. Had this power exist
ed it would have enabled me to have
called special terms and disposed Of the
business, but as it was, / had no power
to call special terms. Mr.. Barker, by
procuring the passage of bill giving
this power to the Judges, has given us
remedy, if the State Printer would dc
us the favor to print it for publication
| mention these things TO show to the
public that il, at the next term in the
western counties, the business be not fin
ished, the fault will not lie at my door
Hoping that those who have written to
me in reference to the subject matter oi
this letter, VIII regard this as an answer
to their letters,
| remain your, respectfully,
L. S. WILSON.
