Our pounty too has passed from under the yoke of Radical bondage, under which ahe languished and groaned so fong in-V to the glorious light qf Democratic mid day. Twice in suocesaioo hate we seen the darVand dinpy banner of Radical ism, go down . In Franklin before the noon-day splendor of the grandnsign pf the Democracy No longer is it the ease when we go up to our State Capi Jtol, during the session of our Qcneral Assembly, are we ashamed to point out twnembeis ' there from onr gallant pounty.

Of all these' things the ' Gourdes will the people rally to our support, and we will guarantee them a paper worthy of the elorious Democracr of the flnnnW The Amendment to the Oonsrtitxxtion. Ordinance numbes fire of the Con stitutional Conyention is in these words, to-wit: " Ah ordixanci to abrogate asd :x Ailf. 8B9FIOs 15, i.6 AjrJ) jT.OK, ABTICLK 4, OF THE COMrriTUTION. eo)e o North Carolina in Convention assembled do ordain. That sections 15, 16 and 17," of Article 4, of the Constitution, be abrogated and an nullect, and the , following substituted therefor; . v, y Suction . The General Assembly shall hre no power to deprive , the ; Ju dicial Department of any power or juris diction which rightfully pertains to it, as a ooordinate department of the gov ernment ; but the General f Assembly shall allot and distribute , that portion of this power and jurisdiction, which does not pertain to the Supreme Court, among the other courts , , prescribed in this Constitution, or which may be es tablished by law, in each vmanner as it may doem best; provide aso (. a proper system of appeals and regulate by Uw, when necessary, the .methods ; of .pro ceeding in the exercise of. their powers, of all the Courts below r. the Supreme Court, so far as the same may be, done without eonfiiot with, ethef . provisions of this Constitutioo. n7v Bead, three times aadratie4 in open Convention, thisr 6th; 4ay ot October, The sections stricken from the present Constitution, by this ordinance areas followa I a. ' ! : Ssc. 15. The'Superior'Courta shall have exclusive original jurisdiction of all civil actionawhereof exclusive orig inal jurisdiction is not given to some other Courts ; and of all oriminaj ac tions in which 'the 'punishment may ex ceed a fine of fifty dollara or guuprison -ment for one month. 1 I J- Ed 16. The Superior Courts shall have appellate jurisdiction of all issues of law or fact, determined by a Probate Judge or a Justice of the Peace, where ; the matter in controversy exceeds twenty-five dollars, and of matters of law in all cases. .V.v t . -;v . Sec. 17. The Clerks of the Superior Courts shall have jurisdiction -of the probate of deeds, the granting of letters testamentary and of administration, the appointment of guardians, the appren ticing of orphans to audit the accounts of exoQutorfc, administrators and guar dians, and of aueh other matters as shall bo prescribed by lawu AH issues of faot joined before them shall b trans ferred to the Superior Courts for trial, and appeals shall lie? to tho' Superior Courts from their judmentin all mat tersof W; 1' v v Thii amendment; it will be peceived leaves it within the power of the Legis lature to regulate arid distribute thi ju- j risdiction and procedure of all thel courts "of the State except' the 2 Supremo Court, which is the final arbiter of all: muses that may go up from the inferior! courts.u As, there js another 'anienti-! ment authonxing the" Legislature to es tablish other courts' tlian'how exist in ferior to the upfenje Court; this is a wise provision, aa it will enable the Gen eral Assembly to sq dene and regulate the workings bf the judiciary system,1 as to fit that department of the State Government to the largest as 'well as the smallest counties in the State.' Un der the present unwieldy cumbersome and bungling ayutom of Courts, the same provision for adminketing justice ja provided for Wake t county With a population of 35,617; as is given to Clay Co,, with a population of 2,461. While in all probability two 5 eeka in theycar will be ample to dispatch all the busi ness in the Superior Court of Clay. Yet three months of courts in Vvtt ;r "barely suffice, 'to keep' the Dockets vf thate(ounty clear,; 4 ; ' , Again, as the, Constitution .now j.atands, a man cannot appeal from a jus-' tce s judgmont upon a matter of fact where the amount does not exceed .$25. So if a man is , warranted for less than $25 before an "ignorant, -(net' to 'say , ;tPjgte and 'jjudgnwnt fa; pvenagauist h?m,' and;the 'only issue is a matter of fact, then he has no rem- j edy. to jnavo the case "revieweli' by a j hgherurt, qd where ibe law'; nd justice would be meted according to the merits of the caac.-and not be left to the ' hima and caprices of a tdo often -i r norant, prej udiaed a.nd corrnpt ; magis-. trate. This whole matter trnnn j tho courts subordinate to the Supreme C jurt fa wisely left in the hands of the Legislature, where the people's repre sentatives, from time to time, can make sith changes as the procedure theivii , and the spirit of the . times may - sug We mignt say mueh more as to-tha benefits to arise from the. ratification of this amendment, but the provision seems to us so wise, that it will commend itself to the people, and will add great ly to the reasons why the amendment! should all be ratified by an overwhelm; mg majority of the popular rote.
