THE ROANOKE NEWS. THURSDAY, A.UL 3, 1:D We reiurn thanks to lUn. W. II Kitchea far cupiel of tha Congressional Krco d. Josua TiiiNi n lias jut reentered $8,000 damages from V. W. H.ilden for impr'ionmeut dorig the K'uk war. Tke cass has been pcndinij for ionic 'time. At the spring term O Chatham county, the suit was anded as aboc Stated. iUfendai.t appealed. The Pjaidtiter trial which has been da much iutcrest has bean cootinurd until tka April term of the court. TiiU became aecesnry frein the fact tint the jury faileJ to Sjjree. A count showed ve far murder in the snctn! uVjrcr, fi for volunliry nmslaulUi r mul two fur involuntary oiansiiughter. A I agreed on a cirnprouTuo for thte'i years I the peuitei.tiiry but tan, wln persiiteJ U the taut. Apulicit'uii for bail re feud. the i.WEitioit outr. On aecaunt ef the gieat ituuibvr of alienees against the eiimual the dockets of tko S.ipariar Courts for U.i' ifl county bate fur tnnny years been crewdad ailh State cases. So much so indeed that tery little of the civil bM ess could be transacted, asd the tax piyers of the coauty, bate had to bear tee burdea of tin (x'.u terms, sitae of them erj long. To overcome this difficulty, the mag istrates of the county saw fit to establish the lafcrior Cturt, which has iu a great tneaaare relieted the Superior (' urts of nick busiiess, with sort little extra ex pense, as fur as wo k.io. Since the passage by the Legislature, of t'le.law cxteadiag the j urUd.ctian of of Justices it ia tb tught by some that tho Iuferi'r Court caa Ll dispcxeil with. T ) abol ilk tke Court MiT, ou that siiptvisiti in would bo rath, because no one can tell haw this aew law will work. It is t'uo that it gites fiaal j irisdicti ia ti uiajis trates in a large number of t'i U c'ih of cases which wmU ordinarily be brought befere tbe Inferior Cjurt. liat the law alio directs that a j istice s'nll graM do appeal ualess woe of the parties arc en dorsed as the prosecutor. Nj i m aay of tkese small cflonces, coaipl tia- aata are vawillioc to pay costs and con- I seqaeolly will aot apply to j i.ticcs for war raits, but wait Hatil tha nutter can belaid before a grand jiry, thus avoid, log the possibility of hating to pay the costs. Now if this be the case, and tbe Inferior Court it abolished tha time of Superior Oesrls will again be taken up with tbie tery cases for tbo trial of which the Interior Caurt was established and for this reas in we thiik the Infer ior Cjurt should ba cuminued aulil it is sia how the law will aff.-ct criminal easts.

The nir,jsty of the law shoald be respected, and those wh9 have injur'u's t ) red.-evs sh mid ap peal to tht law.

It is perhaps ra'her late to speak of the Ligislutuitt leceutly a.lj lurncd, but that body h is recei'cd s i uiuch of un- reasonable and uath:iiking abuse thai I really think a few wurds in their behalf arc yet ia order. Li vcoy truth it has of late grown much the fast inn to abuse Legislatures, unj ihis practice is chit fly ii.du'gcd in by ih isa win me in most total ignurauce of the actual tt.uki gs of the body, which is mado the subject of their anathemas This of course should not be. OfahaWver material a Legislature may bo composed, it is at least the representative of the sovereign peoli! of a Slate, and it will be gener ally fouod ihat e ck Legislature reore sent,! the feelings and wishes, at k-ast for the time being, of tke people ; in whom, according to tbo theory ol our system, is rested all power sad authori ity, and from whom cotues ail honor. Now I watched with some interest 'us course of the last LefiisUturo dur In2 111 esioa aud am tatisGed that. Mtnen the laws pissed by it are pub- ! lisbc the; n tit bt f juod uch lairs as the temper tif the people at present de mands and this although amoeg (bote laws wi l be found more than oiiO re oiuded by mm of study and thought as likely 1 1 lead to tbe most disastrous conseo,'aet'.ces. That such laws should be found net only in the volume of acts now about 10 be published, but in every volume of statute laws evtr published in this coui . try is the fiult, not of ti e Legislature, but of our system. Fwery large coll tiou of individuals lus in itself the eh merits of mobocracy a.d i o matter what mental and Yducationat qualifications the individuals composirg inch body may possess, the body collectively is liable at all times to degenerate into a mo'j. Now in both bouses of the last Leg:slature, there were men well quali fied by habit of niiad, and by cultiva tion a .id study, t give guidance and li recti ui to the affairs of the Stale, but unfortunately for the Stale, und I fear unfortunately for the Democracy, a cl que sprung up tiunlngous to that, which, uler the name ol the "Country I'.iitl," bus more than once carried the English govemrnent to the brink nl ruin. This party or clique was under the leadership of certain men whose mental vision extended nut a moment beyond the present, and certain others who from moral obliquity were willing to prostitute tluir positions as representa tives of the people, which inn liepul lican government is tbe highest aud most honorable any man caa hold, aud under this combined leadership of knaves and fouls, this clique sought by every possible means te mark tbe Leg islative session of 1871) as the one in thu hi'tory of the State most disgiaced by class legislation. That this cliquo did have great 11 fluencc for harm, there can be no d mbt but a great denl of very food work was done, ar d it is to bo htped that a future L'gis'.itire may review much of the bad work before it can be- Come finally operative for barm The main woik of the body just ad j mriied as the decrease of the lax levy and the increase of the jurisdiction of magistrates. These thi cs it did and whatever nit.y bo the opinions f indi viduals a tn the manner in which the work was done or the extent to which it was carrried, there can be no doubt that the people demanded such relief, and that their representatives did right in granting it. Hut eieu granting that the Legislature deserve abloquy, even supposing that no g iod thing can be found in all its work, comment and j.idomeiit ouLt at least to be reserved until a fair review can be taken of the woik, for ut the present time and until tke nets shall have been published, no man can say truly that ho has definite knowledge of the entire woik and on such knowledge alot.e can fair judgment be based. i see that a bill his been introduced iu Congress by which the chiefs of the several executive departments will be al lowed seats cx nlTui ia the lower Imuse nf that bud. This I regard as me iniifii important measure ever brought forward. Si) important that the end of an already too long letter is no place for its discussion, nor can an nff-han1 opinion be given on its merits. I will discuss it next week if I can leuro. enough ou tbe subject meanwhile. Yaurs, 15 AI)Vl:UTISKMKNTS, P11OCLAMATI0N.
