In coming before you as a candidate for

ment of the debt question with W. Virginia,
compromising the interest on the debt. If
any change be required, the "a &c of interest

early a day as practicable. The jurisdiction
of Justices should be extended, thereby many
cases would be disposed of, without reach ing
county courts at the cost of the people.
