The Constitutional. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1860-1861, 1860-08-13
Supreme Court.


VOORHEES, and Duifel arrived in he stage
from the mouth Of Red River on Monday
evening last and opened Court on Tuesday
morning. They have we learn curing the
week heard all the cases, about thirty IN
Number, and rendered their judgments a
list furnished US by Mr.. Ariail, the Clerk
isgivcn below
Ii seems 20 us strange that til, Supreme
Judges of the State should be compelled
TO travel in the hot months OF summer
from the Gulf of Mexico to dle line OF
Arkansas and back--a joun'y which
would kill n mule--to try few appeals
at different points. Why not establish
tie Court at one central place cut OF New
Orleans The Office Of supreme Judge m
this State IS hard one, at best They are
compelled TO labor incessantly the whole
wear 10 decide the cases taken before them
and to be trotted about in such weather
as this, is outrageous. We say let thu
Court be established at SOM favorable
point in North Western Louisiana.
At this term of the Court there wcr'
three gentlemen admitted to tho bar, anon;
them was cur perseycring and enterprisin;
friend L. +. Parker Esq. lie will cen
tainly make his mark.
