THE CoURrs-In nearly all the clerks Offices Of
the district courts busy time Is being had in
taking testimony of witnesses, to be offered in
evidence in the various cases now pending. We
have no opinion TO offer this new feature in our
Jurisprudence; but owing to the delay in reaching
| cases for tTial, after being instituted, the wit
nesses required to establish facts at the time in
| many instances, may be somewhere else when the
case is called, and occasion loss to the party Tor
the want of such needful testimony. Therefore
the taking of testimony by commission, or consent
of parties, will in great measure hereafter rec
tify any loss caused by the delays OF reaching
cases in reasonable time, as far as testimony is
| concerned.
ONE oP THE REPORTERS OF THE CRESCENT had a
hearty shake of the hand with native born De.
