bill to provide for voluntary bankruptcy of
lnsolvent debtors, and for compulsory pro-
ceedings against such debtors, and for an
equitable distribution of the property of
such debtors among their creditors. and for a
discharge of such debtors from their debts.
and to prevent frauds upon and preferences
among creditors.
This is the title to bill introduced in the
House by Mr.. Warren 81. Mead on the I'd inst.
The bill by title tells what it aims to do, and is
the work of Mr.. W. P. Warner, well known
attorney in this city. 1t is elaborate in it's de-
tails and voluminous in it's provisions. The
full bill in all its provisions, etc.,
is familiar to the general reader, having been
published and commented upon.
Being matter of public Importance, and a
measure in the common hap-hazard circum-
stances of legislation, a GLOBE man took up
the thread of the story, and followed il round
yesterday to the lawyers Offices to learn their
views.
MIR. I. v. D. HEARD.
In the first place he thought a law of that
character was essential, both to protect mer-
chants and relieve debtors honestly insolvent.
"Have you read the Warner bill and
II haye read it carefully, and think its pro-
visions wisely drawn. All the details evinces q
mind thoroughly acquainted with the sub
ject."
DO you see any particular feature to con-
denim or eommend?'
'None to condemn. It covers the whole
ground and prepares for all emergencies with
a commendable forethought derived from ex-
tended and practical experiences for the re-
quirements If such necessary law
Tally one for Warmers bill.
MR. GEORGE L. OTIS
: In answer to a question about his thoughts
regarding the bill, Mr.. Otis said it was too Sc
we're. Its provisions would allow any creditor
to break up any one in business. It puts too
much power in the hands of the creditor, and
an INSCRIPTIONS one could ruin any person
owing him small amount. The bill as prepar-
ed and submitted will be Objectionable to
all the State. We want such law. but much
modified from the present one. Mr.. Mead's
bill is too cumbersome and too expensive in
its modes of proceeding.
Ex-Gov. O. X, Davis hadn't read the bill.

side the patient is rarely. able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom-
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
arc c%ostive. sometimes alternative with
lax; he head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen.
sation in the back part. There is gen.
orally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight.
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains Of WEAKNESS
and debility he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he COM
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits are low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him. yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred

he ever so intelligent aud educa'

We want Il constitution which
shall establish a government all
of whose departments shall be SO
nicely adjusted that the most per
feet harmony shall be the result.
Especially do we need a Judiciary
y, stem which shall give us courts
with jurisdiction so well defined
that such a thing as a conflict OF
Jurisdiction shall newer arise.
Now, it is obvious that the
plain man of business cah know
nothing of the practical workings
of courts of law. The best proof
is, that when occasion arises tor
an appeal to law, the plain man
of business will Immediately APP
ply to Il lawyer to conduct his
case, although there is no legal
impeachment to his conducting his
own case. If the ordinary bust
ness man has so much confidence
in the profession as to employ
them in a purely private matter,
why not have the same conf
dence in the profession when
about to frame Il Constitution
which, shall create the judicial
machinery whose function shall
be the enforcement of private
rights. If IA lawyer is able to Ie'
present you in Il court of justice.
he ought to be able to represent
you in IL convention called princi.
paIly to revise the judiciary sys
tenn by which your rights are de-
termined, and Justice meted ont
