Mtiledgeville Correspondence.
Milledgeville, Ga., Dec. 6th, 1859.
Ed. ConstUnUiotailiet — Sir: In the House, this
morning, the bill fVfr- the abolition of the Supreme
Court came up. It was uuder debate in the night
Bession of yesterday. Mr. Lester, of Cobb, obtain
ed the floor. He argued that the bill would de
prive the poor rnaa of a large portion of his rights,
as :he Judges of the Superior courts might lean
towards the side of wealth and influence and slight
the cause of bun who had no vote but his own.
He had taken a solemn oath to keep aud observe
the Constitution of Georgia, and by that Constitu
tion the judiciary powers are vested in three grades
of courts, the first of which was the Supreme. He
answered to the argument of the member from
Richmond, made last uight, that it was true that
our fathers got aloDg for sixty years without a
Supreme Court, but ttiat the wisdom of those very
sires saw the need of such a court, and incorporat
ed their views in the Constitution. They had
established the court as a sheet aucbur to give
stability to our laws and uniformity to our de
cisions.
A message was here received from the Senate
to the eflect that they had reconsidered so much of
their action of yesterday as related to the bill for
the pardon of John Fuudy, and had passed the bill
and sent it to the House for concurrence.
Mr. Gibson of Richmond obtained the floor.
He stated that there was no mau in Georgia for
whom he had higher esteem than for the senior
Judge of the Supreme court, Mr. Lumpkin. He
looked on him as having done perhaps more for
the judiciary system of Georgia than any other
•nan in it. He was ihe personal friend of the sec
ond Judge, Mr S ephens, and a loog practice at
the same courts had only cemented the bonds of
was informed that the gentleman was a seif made
and most worthy man, but did not know him.
Therefore, it was not personal objections to the
Judges, but real objections to the court.
As to the constitutional objections of the gen
tleman front Cobb, be did not want the Legisla.
lure to get scared at that, for the act organising
the Supreme Court was not passed for ten years
after the amendment of the Constitution, The
amendment was put there in 1835, the act was not
passed until 1845. The clause vesting the judi
ciary powers ;n a Supreme court, did not say that
there should be a Supreme court ; only that it
might be. He was willing to legislate day and
uigut, to put down a court that had only been an
engine of oppression from the day of its organi
zation. By the decision of the Supreme court as
pronounced by Judge Nisbet, in two Kelly, a man
aaight be as base and false as hell itself! might
abuse the wife of his bosom in a thousand ways,
aud y et there was no remedy.
Mr. Lester of Cobb, wanted to know if the Su
preme court had not decided up; a the immemorial
common law, when they so decided?
Mr. Gibson hesitated a minute, aud then said
that he did not care what the common law of
England or any other country was. The custom iu
Georgia had been to grant such divorces, and it
took the Supreme court to find out that it was not
law. As the argument that the Supreme eourt
expedited business, he thought that it was a new
idea ; that because a case had been pending for
fifteen years in a circuit court, to take it to the
Supreme court, and after keeping it there a while,
return it to the Superior court for another fifteen
years course—that was new haste to him. He
said that it had been stated that the old Judges
got drunk, and the two drunkest Judges lhat he
.ever saw were Crawford and Dooly, and if the Su
preme court ever took as high a stand in the esti
mation of the people as those two eminent Judges,
he would grant that it liad much exceeded his ex
pectations. Their ways and ideas of law were old
aud simple, and the people were satisfied with
them. Even now, the Judge of the Middle Circuit
was as experienced and wise as any Judge of the
Supreme court. The Judge at Savannah had the
confidence of the whole people; and where was
there such a heart and brain as that of the Judge of
the northern Circuit? How could it be a poor man’s
cour‘,when a rich litigant had the power to take the
case of the poor man to a court to which he could
not go without the loss of his little all? The laborer
who got a verdict tor his year’s wages before a
petit jurv, would have to pay it all out before he
could get that decision affirmed by the supreme
tribunal. Like a sheep in a storm, be fled to a briar
patch, and ouly escaped with the loss of all his
wool. Hu would rather tax the people to pay the
Judges a life salary, than to keep up the Supreme
court. He argued that in tie Bible the “first
chapter was Genesis, then Exodus, then Numbers,
then Deuteronomy, theu Judges, then Kings." So
the next ih ng to the Supreme court Judges would
come Kings ! The people had got all they want
ed when a peiit jury,’ nd a special one chosen from
the grand jury, had decided under the "charge of
Judge. Tim special jury was selected from a pan
el of eighteen, all subject to be purged on oath as
to fairness, and each party had three strikes. In
criminal casts, the giant of a new’ trial by the Su
preme court was equivalent to an acquital, for it
was so hard to get men who had not heard the first
trial and, therefore, “from hearing the evidence
given on oath, formed or expressed an opinion as
to the guilt or innocanre of the accused,” and
then the State lias no writ of error, and not a fair
chance.
Mr. Delony, of Clark, said that he represented a
constituency that had a deep and abiding confi
dence in the Supreme court. He entered his pro
test against Us abolition. The argument of Mr.
Gibson was just us good against the Superior court
as against the Supreme—just as good against all
lawyers as against its judges. The Supreme court
of Georgia—a part of its constitution and the law
of the laud, had commanded the respect of this
and other States. It is one part of the three co
equal powers of the State government—as mv.ch a
part of the government as the Legislature. Let
not members be carried away by sheep and wool
anecdotes, and forget their solemn duties. The
three judges are appointed under the Constitution,
and oniy the manner of their election is fixed by
law. By that Constitution they hold their office
until successors are elected and qualified; and if
by a repeal of the organization law there is no
more election, therefore, they are judges for life.
He for one felt himself too young a man to sit in
judgment on such men as Lumpkin, Warner,
Nisbet, Beuuing, Stephens and Lyon. He knew
an old and very eminent lawyer in Georgia, who
once opposed the Supreme court, and sat down to
examine its decisions to write a pamphlet against
it. That eminent lawyer arose from his task with
the conviction that, considering the mass of con
tradictions that the Circuit courts had piled up,
the Supreme court had done wonderous well. All
courts were unpopular, but would be necessities,
as long as there were public and private rights
and wrong.-'. We have beeD quarreling with the
Executive all winter, and now with the Judiciary.
Talk about judges and kings! Somebody wautid
to abolish the Senate —aud another set of men
wanted to abolish the veto. There are one hun
•drei and sixty-eight Representatives; just as well
three kings, as for us to usurp all power and be
lings! As for the divorct reference of the gentle-
The Daily Constitutionalist.
man from Richmond, that was but empty talk to
set sympathy for the women. The Supreme court
ecided upon the divorce law as fixed for ages end
the Legislature afterwards changed the law as they
had a right to do—change all laws that work
hardship 5. He would be glad for the time to come
when wrongs would not be perpetrated ; but till
then courts must exist.
Mr. Hartridge, of Chatham. He reques that
the favorite scheme of the member from Rich
mond should have been sprung in the gloom of
night; the question was a great one, for the
s reams of justice should irrigate a ike the whole
State. Why abolish the court because its deci
sions are r.ot unanimous? Why take tbe powtrs of
three confering judges, and give them to sixteen
sej arate and independent Judges? It is the poli
cy of ages to have a supreme tribunal. New York
tried to give her Senate that power, but it would
not do. In the good old times of Georgia, talked
about justice was discordant, and dissevered—
eight or ten systems of jurisprudence, under the
same common Constitution. Now, in all civil
cases thejuries were bound to take the law from
the lips of the Judge, who would then be su
preme and sole in judgment. He can grant new
trials, as well as the Supreme court. We are act
ing for a posterity, who may bless us or curse us
in our graves, according to the judgment of this
hour; then wait for the Senate bill to locate and
reorganise the Supreme court.
Mr. Fannin, of Troup, was not for the bill—his
people were to a great extent; but he would sup
port the Supreme court, if the deed lit his funeral
pyre.
Mr. Ely, of Dougherty, paid when the star of
Napoleon set in blood, at Waterloo, a great states
man said that the hand of the dial of the worldls
history was thrown back one hundred years, so it
would be with if the Supreme court was
abolished.
There are thirty-one Supreme courts in the
Uuion, and the most of the delays of our system
were caused by the new trial act of 1853-4-5,
which act the Supreme court had protested against
in vain, and was bound to enforce. The delays of
all courts was au incident to freedom ; in despotic
counties, where one inau unites in himself, the
Legislative, Executive, and judicial powers us in
Russia, there is uo delay. England is at once net
ted fur her freedom,and her delays of justice. It is
not so with the Czar of Russia.
Mr. Tatum, of Bade, was for the first Constitu
tion, and to go back one hundred and six years,
and have no Supreme court. He was for making
juries, judges of the law and the fact |in all cases.
Mr. Ely moved to refer the bill to the Slate
convention—ayes eighty-eight; nays sixty-one.
It is so referred. The convention bill passed the
House by eighteen majority; but has not yet pass
ed the Senate.

came to the stand—Hunter’s br. h. Bill Dearing,
Pryor’s ch. h. George Clemons, Spalding’s b. c.

The anticipations of those who expected a very
fine race and a great day’s sport were not disap

Probable Homicide.— A difficulty occurred about
eight o’clock yesterday morning, near the ware
house of Dillard, Powell <fc Co., between William
Pike and Jefferson Upton, in which the latter re
ceived a severe stab in the left side, and is con
sidered to be in a dangerous condition. Pike fled
to Alabama, and had not 'been arrested up to seven
o’clock last evening, though the police were in
pursuit of him. — Columbus Sun, Dtc. 5.
A correspondent of the Washington States writes
that Richard Reals, late Secretary under the pro
visional government and thievish organization of
John Brown, is now in Texas, and consequently
was not arrested near Alexandria, Va., as supposed.
Reals has recanted, and it is believed was the
author of the warning le ter received, ai d unfor
