the ohair.
< TBB IBFBBIOB OOtTBTB lOAIN.
After the reading of the jonrnal of yes
terday's proceedings, Mr. MeDonald, of
the Fifth Distriot, moved to reconsider
the aotion of (he Convention yesterday in
agreeing to section first of the article on
the Jndioiery in order to add Inferior
Coarts to the other ooarts named. He
said the people of the State all wanted to
have the Interior Courts re-established,
and snob a feature in the Constitution
would cause them to tum out strongly and
vote for ratification.
MR Davis, of tlie Tenth Distriot, op
posed the motion to reconsider. He said
that as the County Ooarts now have uni
form jurisdiction, there was no use intro
ducing heterogeneous tribunals in some
oountiee.
The motion to reconsider was laid on
the table.
DISQOALU iOATIOM OF JUDQBS.
Mr. Brown, of the Thirty-ninth Dis
triot, moved to reoonsider paragraph
second of section one adopted yesterday
as fotlowB:
Par. II. When a majority of the Judges
are disqualified from deciding any esse,
by interest or otherwise, the Governor
shall designate Judges of the Superior
Ooarts to sit in their steed.
Mr. Brown said be made the motion
in order that an amendment prepared by
Mr. Mynatt migl- ) be offered and adopted.
Mr. Mynatt, of the Thirty-fifth Dis
trict, offered an amendment substituting
the word “one or more" for “a majority"
in line one, and the Words “for any other
reason cannot preside” after the word
“otherwise” in line three. The amend
ment was adopted.
JUBOBS WHO HAVI BOBBS.
Mr. Hammond (N. J.), of the Thirty-
fifth Distriot, moved to reoonsider the
paragraph offered by Mr. Wright yes
terday and adopted, wbioh read as fol
lows:
Bo Judge of the Supreme Court or of
any aourts in this State shall - preside in
any osse affecting the validity or any
materiel interest arising out of any
bonds, Federal, State, corporation or mu
nicipal, who holds in bis own right, or as
the representative of others, any of the
olaaa of bonds upon wbioh the question
to be decided arises.
Mr. Hammond Bsid that if the Convens
tion wished to retain the sentiment of
the paragraph, it should > be reconsidered
in order that it might be perfected gram
matically. If they did not wish to retain
the sentiment of course the paragraph
should be reconsidered.
Mr. Davie, of the Tenth Distriot, wished
to know why the bolding of bonds should
be seteoted specially as a disqualification.
He thought that only general laws should
be incorporated into the Constitution by
the Convention.
Mr. Wright, of the Forty-second Dis
triot, opposed the motion to reoonsider.
The paragraph was not likely to be mis
understood, and as it stood would effeot
the object Jor wbioh it wae introduced
sufficiently well.
The motion to reoonsider was lost.
SALS OF THE STATE'S HULBOABS.
The report of the committee on the sale
of the railroads belonging to the State
was the special order for the day, but the
President ruled' that unfinished business
took preoedatioe of the special order, and
the unfinished business was the consider
ation of the report of the Committee of
Final Bevision on the Jndioial Depart
ment.

Paragraph two was read as follows:
Par. II. The General Assembly may
aonfer upon the Oourls of oommon law
power to grant equitable relief,
Mr. Ingram, of the Twenty-fourth Dis
triot, moved to amend by supplementing
after Ihe word “law," the words “ell tbe
powers heretofore exeroised by Courts of
Equity in tbiB State.” The amendment
was adopted, end the paragraph agreed
to aa amended.
Paragraph three was read, aa follows :
Per. III. Said Courts shall have juris
diction in all other oivil oases, except as
hereinafter provided.'
Mr. Hawkins, of the Forty-seaond
Distriot, moved to amend by striking ont
the word “other.” The amendment was

ferred on them by law.

provide for an appeal from one jury in
the Superior and City Courts to another,
and the Bald Coarts may grant new trials
on legal grounds.
Mr. Harrell, of the Twelfth Distriot,
moved to amend by striking ont the first
danse. He eaid that appeals from one
jnry to another only delayed the business
of the Ooarts. In all oivil oases the
jnries were judges of the faot end the
Judges of the law. If the Jndge should
moke a mistake aa to the law, the Su
preme Court will oorreot him. He failed
to see the use of submitting ths same
case twiee to the same tribunal.
Tbe amendment was laid on the table,

amendment.
Paragraph seven was read:
Par. VII.
The Court shall render judg
ment without the verdiot of a jnry, in all

tracts in writing, where an issnable de
fense is not filed.
Mr. lteeee (W. M.), of the Twenty-
ninth Distriot, moved to amend by adding
“under oath" to the paragraph. He said
it was no hardship to make every man
swear to what he brings before a ooart.
Mr. Fsee, of the Twenty-Seventh Dis
triot, moved to amend by adding tbe
‘ inn *'
words “oath or solemn affirmation.
Mr. Reese aooepted this amendment.
Mr. Cain, of the Eighteenth Distriot,
moved to amend by adding “which de
fense may be filed at the first or any sub
sequent term of the ooart.” This amend
ment was lost.
Mr. DaBose, of the Twentieth Distriot,
opposed the adoption of Mr. Reeae'e
amendment. Ho said there were some
defendants who, feeling that they did not
have a good defense, did not wish to
swear to its trath. tie tboaght that this
oath business was often a nuisance.
There was too maoh swearing done in
Georgia anyhow.
Mr. Ingram, of the Twenty-fonrtb Dis
triot, said he thought there was no more
reason why the defendant shonJd bs made
to swear to the trath of bis oasa than
there was why the plaintiff ahonld not be
made to swear to bis.
Mr. Brown, of the Thirty-ninth Dis
triot, said he thought if the defendant
did not have a good enough cose for him
to swear to there was no ase in delaying
tbe eonrt to consider it. He tbonght Mr.
Reese's amendment a good one, end
hoped Ihe Convention would adopt it.
The amendment was adopted, and the
paragraph as amended agreed to.
Paragraph eight was adopted, as fol
lows ;
Par. VIII. The Superior Courts shall
ait in eaoh oonnty not less then twice in

qnalified.
The paragraph was agreed to.

Section V.—Paragraph I. In any oonn
ty within whioh there is, or hereafter may
be, a City Court, the .lndge of said Court,
and of the Superior Court, may preside in

to preside.

Section VI.—Paragraph I. The powers
of n Court of Ordinary and of Probata
shall bo vested in an Ordinary for each
oonnty, from whose decision there may be
the words “or by oonaent of tbs parties
without a decision." The amendment was
adopted, and the paragraph agreed to aa
amended.
Paragraph second was road :
Pab. II. The Courts of Ordinary ihall
have snoh powers in relation to roads,
bridgee, ferries, pubiio buildings, paupers,
county officers, county fundi end oonnty
taxes, and other oonnty matters, os may
be conferred on them by law.
Mr. Boas, of the Forty-oeeond Distriot,
moved to amend by adding after the
word! “Ordinary,” in the flnt line, tbe
words “Oonnty Commissioners, where
snoh exist.”
Hr. CoUier, of the Thirty-fifth Distriot,
■old he thought the amendment woe un
necessary. where no Oonnty Commis
sioners exist the statute lew now confers
upon the Ordinary the powers enumerated
in the paragraph.
Mr. Hammond (N. J.), of the Thirty-
fifth Distriot, said he thought the amend
ment was oat of plaos. He thought the
Convention ahonld not aonfuss the power
of the Ordinary with the power of any
other tribunal. After some debate Mr.
Boos’ amendment was laid ' on the table
end the paragraph was agreed to.

by a vote of U3 ayes to 85 nays, and the
paragraph, anamended, was agreed to.
Paragraph first, section raven, was
read :
Section VII—Paragraph I. Thera shall
be in eaoh district one Jnatioe of the
Peace, whose official term, except wheu
•elected to fill an unexpired term, shell
be fonr years.
Mr. Trammell, of tbe Forty-third Dis
triot, moved to amend by ineeriing in
line two the word “militia” before tbe
word “distriot.” The amendment was
adopted and the paragraph, as amended,
agreed to.
Paragraph Beoand waa read :
Par. II. The Justices of the Pesos ihall
have jurisdiction in all oivil cues arising
ex oontractu when the principal sum does
not exoeed one hundred dollars, and obeli
alt monthly at fixed times and places; bnt
in all cases there may ba an appeal to a
jury in said Ooart, nnder snoh regulations
aa shell be prescribed by lew.
Mr. Moore, of the Forty-third Distriot,
moved fo emend by adding after the word
"contractu," in line three, tbe words, “or
in oau of trespass or other in jnry to per-
Bonalty.” The amendment woe adopted,
and the paragraph, aa amended, agreed
to.

adopted without amendment, os follows:

oree, by snoh aourts severally Bhall be
uniform. Tbe uniformity must be estab
lished by the first General Assembly
eleoted under this Gonstitntion.
Mr. Moore, of tbe Forty-third Dis

City Ooarts." Tbe amendment was
adopted.
Mr. Hammond (N. J.), of the Thirty,
