after careful examination of the case,

CUB LOCAL JUDICIARY.

One Of the most difficult duties deyolv-
ing upon the Constitutional Convention
is to provide simple get ample plan by
which the present and future wants Of this
city 1nay be met for the transaction Of its
law business. To every person who has
had any considerable amount Of experience,
there is much to deprecate in the present
arrangement Of the courta. We have in
this city almost constantly in session the
Circuit Court Of Cook County and the su-
periof Court OF Chicago, which are Of pre-
cisely the same jurisdiction. We have
also tie Recorders Court OF Chicago, aud
The County Court-all courts Of record.
Besides these courts, existing bY authority
of State Laws, we have the Federal Courts
constantly in session. Any lawyer doing q
ceuernl practice is liable TO be called in to
any and all Of thesa courts. Although he
may select the court into which he will
bring his own cases. get when his clients are
sued be uus make his defence where the
suit is brought, and the business Of Eome
OF these courts being Of particular class,
such as probate and criminal, it Will be
observed that it Is no Light task
to keep posted in all the doekets
md answer Ill the calls and
7nohops IN I'LL these various tribunals.
Moreover, The courts, as at present coustl.
tinted. are inadequate to do the business OF
the city. They are crowded with causes,
and the necessity is at hand for greater
facilities. Shall We go on md increase tbs
nu,ubor Of courts? This viii only be adding
