...!hrssssy hsasirf, March s, 1879,

TIE court Bill now Def re the Gener
al Assembly, we fear, will become a
law: The effect Of it will lie to remove
nearly all the tu-iness of the con ty
court into the circait court, and, III :.
coHnsy ccult will e cam ! to the
probate Of wills, graz ting EFT rs O. ad-
ministration, sc. i he salary OF county
Judges will be limited to three hundrt d
dollars. The result ofathe change viii
be, the docket ofthe circuit court will
become very large, business viii be de
layed, criminal expenses more than
doabledL and the people subjected to
greater cost and inconvenience: As'tiie
number of circuit judges will not be
increased, there will only. be two sess
ions of the court in the year. If the
General Assembly would pass laws Of
general interest to the people, and such
az would remove burdens from their con.
It uents, we would take pleasure in
commencing them to, the public favor.
But when their whole action tends to
increase the public burden, to deprive
the people OF their just rights'te spec
dy settlement of difficulties, and to- i'm
pede the administration Of justice, they
cannot expect the support of a people
whom they have either Intentionally or
for want of Legislative capscity,so gross
ly injured. We stated several weeks ago,
that all our representatives opposed this
bill We are since informed that our
Senator and one delegate are opposed
to the new law. We make the coIrec-
:sfion and at the same time regret that
we were mistaken For fear of anoth
er error we will await the vote upon the
question, assuring our delegates, that
i the people will hold them responsible
for their votes. 80

TEE Legislature have begun the work
which which was promised two years
ago They have retrenched not in pc,
diem, but have reduced the mileage
from twenty to ten cents per mile. We
hope it will not subject any Of the
members of the General Assembly to
serious inconvenience, especially as tns !.
all have. free passes over the railroads
but tie people will certainly rejt ice
that the great work of retrenchme mt
has been. contaminated.

BAN FRANcIsco, February 26.-Cap
tain Jack has started for place three
miles west Of his camp, at the south
end of Tule Lake, at which point he
will meet the Peace Commissioners.
The Indians are opposed to any
soldier being present, but Captain Jack
!: said he would talk with General Candy
| the shoulders Won d trighten his men,
but they would meet unarmed any mum
Der of citizens, provided they; the
whites, also came without weapons.
The Indians would not agree to any
other terms or place for the council
Captain Jack would wait until Thurs
,, day for Messrs Steel and Roseborough,
but objected to Messrs. Apologize and
Meachman.
The commissioners have not vet de
cided whether they will accept Cap
tain Jacks proposals as t, the time
and place ofmeeting.
THE County CoukT B1lI.-iFe no, e
that the bill, transferring tile greater

Dispatches a day or two ago con-
tanned notice Of an accident to ex-
Senator John P. Hale, Of New Hamp-
shire. and this morning a report is re
ceived that the injuries are likely to
prove fatal. Mr.. Hale is almost the
last survivor of the original band of
anti-slavery men, who did SO much to
fashion public sentiment in opposition
to the peculiar institution. Seward,
Chase, Giddings, Lovejoy are all gone.
Only Sumner and Hale remain. Mr..
Hale was first elected to the Senate in
1916. In 1852 he was the free-soil
candidate for the Presidency Presi'
dent Lincoln appointed him Minister to
Spain, from which country he returned
some three years ago, aud ha. since
remained in retirement.
