If the bill which is now pending before Congress, to change the juris diction of the United States Circuit court, shall becomli a law, and it has already passed the House of Repre sentatives by a strict party vote. Shduld it become a law there will no longer be any use for the United States Court House in Raleigh, ex cept for postoffice and internal rev enue purposes. The bill provides for the transfer from the Circuit court to the District court, of all of the business, civil and criminal, of a reginal character, which the court has in hand, and convert the U S Circuit court into an Appellate court, to hold its sessions in the city of , Richmond for this en tire circuit, composed of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Caro lina and South Carolina. No district court has ever been es tablished to be held in the city of Raleigh, so all of the business of the Circuit court will be transferred to Elizabeth City, New Berne and Wil mington. Suitors, witnesses, lawyers and everybody, who have heretofore Vinrl hnainAKa in thn TT 8 nirp.nit. nonrf. at this place, will betake themselves to the sea-side. It is to be regretted that a district court has not been heretofore established in Raleigh, which might succeed to all of this business, and prevent this gn-at in- convenience to .parties ana loss to tne The cities of Charlotte, Greensboro, Asheville and Statesville will not suf- fer by reason oi mis dui Decoming law, because in each of those places a district court has already been estab lished, which is held at the same time with the Circuit court. I it is to be hoped that the entire ' delegation from North Carolina will make a determined enort to nave a district, court established in Raleigh at the present session of Congress, whether the bill becomes a law or not. We call this matter especially to the attention of Senators Ransom and Vance, end Mr Bunn the Congress man from this district It ia a matter of vital importance to our people. SPECIAL NOTICES.
