‘ Presentments.
Coweta Superior Court, adjourned Term, Decern-
hr, 1831.
T M HE Grand Jury of Cqweta county, havlog per
formed tbe ordinary duties of the court, beg
leave to state for the information of the citizens of
the enmity, that ,ii conformity with the law of 1829,
they have mude an examination of the Clerk and ;'•'•
Trca-urer’s books, and fipd a material deficiency in
ibe proceeds of the.sales of the lots of, the town of
Newnaii—45 lots, it appears from the Clerk's books,
are not accounted for. And do therefore, most, ear
nestly beg leave to call the attention of the Judges of
the Inferior court ol this county, to a close investi
gation of this mutter, and humbly hope, that in (bis,
as well as in other particulars, they wilt, in future,
evince a moru active zeal in the periormance of their
duty.
We do also End the situation of the books of the
Clerk ofthe Inferior court, and the Treaswrer, to be
such as to render it impossible for us to make an ac
curate statement of tbs amount of the county funds;
and we do, therefore, recommend to them to be bet
ter prepared ut (lie next superior cor.it.
5ot huvingtime to examine the bookxof the Clerk
of Ihe Superior court, wc are therefore wholly unable
to say n iryt their situation may be.
Tin* Grand Jury bus Ind h lull slatement ofthe poor
school toads nl the county, placed before them by the
Trustee, and find that he has faithfully discharged hi*
duty.
We regret to any that our roads are, in many in-
sticces, almost inipsssable; ive therefore, recommend
a rigid enforcement ofthe road laws, (bat the com
missioners be compelled, under the penalties of the
l uv. to comply with'heir duties.
We present as a grievance; the gross neglect on.
the part of many ofthe justices of the pease of this
county, in solely omitting to pay Into the Treasury
the proceeds arising from limsaloof estrays.and mak
ing correct returns to the clerk.
We also present as agrlevnncn the non-enforce
ment of the patrol laws, and especially recommend
to the justices of the peace of tbe county, to have the
same enforced, with instructions to oaptains of pat-
rols to pay no attention to passes, except they insert
the time and p!~ce, agreeably to law.
We recommend to the citisons of our county, to
prevent collections of Negroes, for (he purpose of di
vine worship among themselves, aud recommend to
the notice ofthe Legislature to pass some luw for pro
hibiting negro meetings for divine worship, as ample
provision is made forthe accommodation of our black
population in the ditferent churches of our state,
where they can he better instructed in the principles
of Christianity.
We find that tile tax collector for tbe year 1828. Is
a defaulter, inasmuch as it appears to us that h* re
tains in his hand* a balance ol the comity funds, a-
mounting to 127 dollars ti& 1-2 cents.
A Vo state it with pleasure, as an evidence of the
moral growth of this community, that only one bill
has been presented to us, during the present term oi
our court.
When we reflect, for a moment, upon tbe grind ob
ject of government, which is tbe freedom and securi-
ty of (he governed, and towards th* consummation of
which, permanency, uniformity,and universality, ay*
essential to the very uaturd and existence of law, wo
are compelled to confess, when we luok et ourjudi-
ciary system ar.d the consequences resulting from it,
that our iaws, so fares it respects their operation, and
mode ni administering in general, are solely desti
tute of two ofthosc essential constituents, namely, »•
niformily and universality. Font is too well known
to be ever mentioned, that what will, in many instan
ces, in a great degree, destroy the reputation, blast the
prospects, and ruin the circumstances of an individa-
i,l in one seciion of the state, will scarcely aifect him
in another. That an enlightened people, wbo are
jealous of their rights and liberties, and alive in watch
ing every approach towards the advancement of pow
er, should passively for a moment, submit to such a
stale of things, is passing strange indeed. We be
lieve it to hr wholly uncongenial with tho spirit aatl
intent of tbe Institutions of our country. A single
presiding Judge, may in a moment ol eicjtemonl.o-
ver-awe an,' 1 , brnw-beat the young professional aspi.
rant by the unlimited stretch of his power, bear
down tba talents and genius of ibe -Bar. and rush a-
foul of long established and venerated authority.—
And from this state of things, if the like ever should
occur, the only dernier resort, is to submit ia silence,
and bow respecttully to tbe powers that lie. Such •
judicial system, if indeed it can be called a system;
having no redeeming or cout.-oiling principle) is al
most uuparalied io every civilized country in the
world. A court of errors would, in our opinion, give
more dignity to tbe Bench, and by slimuiatingto in
dustry, elevntollic character of the Bart confer per
fect security and protection on the people! and give
uniformity aud universality to the law; of which it ia
almost entirely destitute. We do, therefore, moat
earnestly present, as a grievance tbe waotol a coart
of errors; and recommend to our 9enator and Repre
sentative, elected, to use their best efforts to procure
the establishment ofthe same. In order that tbe cit
izens may, in geaerel, become somewhat belter ae- ■
quainted with Ihe character, standing, and taleata of
the several presiding judges throughout the State, aad
thu more effecturtiy Io prevent any individual, through
the instrumentality of those, who. perhaps,may know
very little in reference to his virtue, and talents from
being imposed lime alter time, upon the same circuit,
in opposition perhaps, io toe approbation of the peo
ple, vve do, therefore, at well as for other reusont e-
quatly evident, recommend to our Senator and Rap-
resenlativeto use their utmost efforts to effect (be pea
sage of a law, for the purpose of making the Judges
alternate. Lest any improper inference should be
drawn from these desultory observations, we wj*k it®
to be distinctly understood, as-faaving a* improper
bearing or allusion to any particular persoa, bat
merely Intended as a feeble illustration of geaaral

mend to the attention and consideration of tha Leg

much deprecate.
