Gentlemen, -To meet the Repre sentatives of the people of thistate, fre-, ly chosen, and bringing With them from every part ol the State, . the .feelings and interests of the great body of ihe people, is at all times highly gratifying, arid pe culiarly so at the present, when we re flecuthat peace and tranquility both at home and abroad, pervades not only the State in. wbicb we. live and immediately represent, but the whole of our wide ex tended 'empire ; that our land is filled with the abundant products of our soil ; and that we are in the peaceful enjoyment of our privileges.

Then, to restore the cobntryjo ir? wonted prosperity, is to. afford encou ragement to industry and economy, - to avoicixtravagarice,': and cattivate that virtue which teaches to keep our .wants within our means. v - kl T . With respect to the Judicial branch of the government,, the; Supreme Court, as at presetit , organise, is new-ln its ope ration Tt promises to theitate a tribunal fW.m whirli mir r.irtZfcns maV CXpeCta i proper exposition of the laws. ?

It; is that part which calls in the a id of a missive Judge. The language of the Constitution is ex- press -ana imperative; lrprnvmcs mai the General Assembly shall, hy Joint ballot of both ' Houses, appoint Judges of th"e Supreme Courts of Law," &c who shall hold their offices during good beha viour. " The missive Judge receives his ap pointment vfrom a different source; (the Governor of the State) although for spe cial purposes, yet at the same time with all the powers and authonties -bp a Judge of the Supreme Court, except the tenure of office ; he exercises the supreme judi-: cial functions in all their bearings upon , the special causes he may be called upon to try ;s but upon taking' his seat in the -Supreme Court the law does not require him to take the oath prescribed for a Judge cfthat Court. ; ..:' - ' r : yi" How far 1t is proper for the Legisla ture to transfer the power of that appoint ment from their own, body to another branch of the government, ls question t of some importance; and however it may be decided, upon a review of the subject, if the -Constitution does, not stand in the way, perhaps a better expedient could not' have been devised for calling in the aid of. a missive Judge. Upon' the other hand, snouia ic oe ociieveainai xne vodsiuuhou does not sanction it, that, appendage:, of the Supreme Court . may be dispensed 1 wun wiinouv injury o iuu urani.ii u unr system.., , t . . - . I have believed it a duty I owe to the Stable to present this subject to your view, but at the same time with the mo$t pro found respect for the three branches of the government. Legislative, Executive and Judicial, as well as for the great body. of the people, whose best interest we have m charge. , " -. . From various considerations, 1 am inr duced to believe that to separate the Sur perior vOUrtS'Oi uaw irom iiicv--mri ui Equity, would be ap essentialrimprove ment in our Court system Blending the two jurisdictions together in . the same hands: for the same Judge to sit as:a Court of LawLto day,and as a Court oh Equity to-morrow, upon the; same cause, presents a Sort of inconsistency not easily reCOnCiieu luc scnritim uiciu wyuiv have another beneficial effect It would afford tatHe Judges of Iaw an opportuni ty of devoting their whole time to ques tions of Law, with a Tetrer prospect of going through their several dockets at each Term; , :..;'C-ir ' ": . In the County Courts of Pleas & Quar ter Sessions, although many defects pre sent them selves. I am not prepared to offer any substitute jnr to propose any change. . vJt llie jurisqiciioii oi. lue-jiuaifL-cs oui ui Court, it has met some animadversion, both as to the corisUtutionafity ; asiveH as the expediency, of their' extensive juris diction. But when the right of Jtrial by Jiiry is preserved, it a'ppears to me that which is done, by ouriiaws in the fullest extent, bv erantioE the right of appeal in all cases, no matter how small thsum. i r As to the"jexieien.ortpolicyfJeX7 tendingptheir jurisdiction, it is matter of opinivmf: Iu this Statrjit b-beetTprp-giessi ve for many years, as our laws bear testimony ; from ver'allsnmop tp one h uiidred dollars-4ihd while ; the Jus tices' judgnieuts. aret confined to.specal tiesasat present, jand tjhe right,pf appeal secured; may went hope, that that branch of bur Judicial system raajr De furtijerim proved.
