SUPREME COURT REPORTING.

The address Of the Chicago Law Institute to
the Bar and Press Of the State, the subject Of
Rpeedier and cheaper publication OF the
Supreme Court reports, has just been issued in
pamphlet FORM The address sets forth that
there is general complaint that the reports arc
excessive in price, deficient in quantity, and d.
latory in appearance, and Legislative interposi-
ton Of decided and radical character is impera-
lively demanded. Heretofore, the enholuments
of the official Reporter have been greatly in ex-
cess OF liberal compensation, although respon-
sible parties had offered to produce the reports
at half the price and in less than one-third the
$3.50 each. It is estimated that, for
8 six years term, under pro-
per systom, the saving to the Bar and
State would amount to 598, ,280; and that the
Reporters profits, during his official term Of six
annual profit Of S151s1.25, a Compensation
larger than the combined salaries of the Cover
nor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary Of State,
and Auditor Of Accounts, and nearly four times
the salary Of Supreme Court Judge! The nd
aated by salary instead OF being allowed profits,
30 that his interest shall cease to be the least
matter in the most books. The delay in the
publication Of the reports is subject Of common
notoriety and complaint. Their regular time Of
appearance, after the term OF submission, is
two years; that il, practically, there is an in
terva1 OF that length between the Court and tho
bar. Any tolerably we'll stocked law Library,
public or private, or law book store, in the
country, which contains q respectable array Of
State reports, avouches not only that tho
resources and facilities Of law book publishers
for speedy work are quite equal to those Of pub
Hahers in miscellaneous departments. but, that In
q comparison Of dates Of reports, and as to their
promptneas OF appearance, those Of Illinois
most conspicuous1y suffer. In conclusion,
the Committee signing the address re-
specttully- and earnestly invite, particularly
the members Of the profession in the
State, and suoh editors, also, as may be willing to
aid us with their columns, to actively concur
with us in q movement for early and decisive
Legislative action to cheaper and expedite the
reports OF cur Supreme Court. The committee,
or any Of it's members, will be pleased to confer
with gentlemen of th5 bar, by correspondence or
otherwise, in reference to the accomplishment
Of tho purpose commended in the resolution Of
the Chicago Law Institute, and all who concur
with us In this movement are requested to sig t

4 Revolving Story.

From the Nelo 4 Albany {Ind.) Ledger, Dec Is.
The particulars Of the death and burial OF a
smallpox patient in this city has just been re-
ported to us, whi.h contains some revolving
details, and which, if true, demands moro than q
mere mention. Some three weeks or more ago.
colored man named Brutua Smith, living on
Upper Fourth street, was taken down with this
terrible disease, and died on Monday, the 25th OF
last month. After his death the notorious Bill
Watkins WIS employed to bury his body. It is
said that he went to the bed, seized the dead
man by the legs, dragged him out Of tho bed On
to the floor, and thence down the stairway, where
he placed the body in rough box, hauled it ont
to West Union, and kept it for nearly week
before it was Inferred.
It is also rumored that Watkins never Inferred
the body in any Of the burial grounds, but con-
reyed it to swamp and there covered it from
sight.

SAVANNAH, July %, 1872.

SASANNAH, uiy I'd, Oh.
Ed. REPUBLIcAN-Iha have learned that
our School Board are contemplating the
employment of teachers for the ensuing
year within a short time. From CONVEX
sation with a number of the largest tag
payers in the district, I am convinced
that such action will not be generally ap-
proved by the taxpayers and Others in
terested in the welfare of the schools
They truthfully urge the following in OPP
position: Our school building is not COM
pleted, with not much probability that it
will be before cold weather sets in.
If the teachers are employed at present,
it keeps them from engaging in other
schools, or going into other business, and
it would not be just to throw them out OF
a winters employment without compen-
sation. Therefore, l think. as also do a
good number of tax-payers, that it would
be much better, not only for the district,
but also for the teachers, to defer action
in this matter until some more definite
time for commencing the schools can be
determined upon.
Now, [ do not desire to be under
stood as casting any reflections oil the
contractors, for l believe that-the
weather and Providence permitting
they will complete the house i'll time;
but we can not control thc weather.

way of accommodating exhibitors
The premium list amounts to $4,000,
and Will be raised to q much larger
sum bv private offers. The range of
premiume is much wider, the time is
heightened to nine days, and we MAJ,
reasonably anticipate the grandcst
fair ever held in America. 900 es
A new and interesting feature in
the coming exhibition, will be the
competition between county and
other Fair Associations, for the pri-
yes awarded to the best collections
or samples offruit, grain, vegetables,
&c. The President and Secretary de-
vote their whole time to the inter-
