15 0,000. N'*w it is about 4,000,000 In ton years the increase lias been not far from 100 per. cent —The Western States contain 7 inhabitants on a square mile. The m nber of persons t*> a square mile in Massachu setts is ro. ’ Allowing the ratios of increase to be less as the country grows older, it will be a moderate calculation to say. that 1850, the Western States will possess a more numerous population than the other three divisions of the United States. When the population shall he as dense as Massa- husetts, they will com. tain 5ti,960.000. Allying one sol di r to s ven inhabitants, the military force will be 5/280,000. As the tin organiz ‘d part, of the Western country is not taken into this calculation, e may sf Iv calculate that the p pula tion a the period referred to, will be mor ■ than 40.000.000. Under the p esent regulations, <>v er*y 40.000 s nd a repres* ntative to Congress. The West- m States now send 46. In 1850 (regulations con tinuing the sanje) they will s-md 268. The northern, middle, and southern states now semi 170. According to the best calculation that have been made the increase of t i is three di visions will not entitle them to 268 representatives. Electors for Presi dent and Vi e President are chosen o.i the same principle. Thus in little more than 20 years, we shall govern the United States and in 30 years the power of the Western States will l>e overwhelming.—While this genenera tion is alive the g ivermnent of the U nsted States will be just what the! Western States are disposed to make! it* At the contemplated period, thej military force of the Western Spates wiil he greater than the emperor of Russia can bring into the field. How important that science ami virtue should shed their light over this great valley us the Mississippi, and prepare oor citizens to place s ch men at the heads of department, as shall save the nation from political shipwreck.

Gentlemen , Pursuant to the wishes of the Grand Jury of this county, we beg leave to hand you their presentment on the suhject of establishng a Court for the Correction of Errors in this state. We think with the Grand Ju ry, that in a matter of such great im portance to the interest of the commu nity, public opinion ought to be con sulted; that it is due to the good peo ple of this state to refer the question at once to them, for the purpose of eliciting an expression of their senti ments, at the next general election. We therefore respectfully recommend to the Justices of the Inferior Court of each county, to give public notice that the presiding Magistrates at the general election in Oi tuber next, will receive the votes of the p-qdeon tuts subject; that all voters favourable to the establishment of sir h a tribunal, will writ” on their ti kets COURT OK ERRORS, and all (h >se opposed to it NO COURT OK ERRORS; and forth** purpose of giving elfi a y to the will of th • people, let a refur of the vote so tak n he made to the Executive Dcp-rfment, to be laid be fore the ensuing session of the Legisla ture. He are Gentlemen, Respectfully your Ohnlt. Scrvts. ELIASKORT.J.LC.CO. ALEX. UELF VIR, J. I c C. C. .1 M OB RE U) J. |. C. C C VIOSES Si!EFTALL, J. 1. C. C. C . Extract from the presentments of the Grand Jt ry of the Superior Court of Chatham Countg , May Term, 1828. W k v* ill not com lu-.te one pre sentments without an earnest recom mendation to our fellow <i izens. toe P nple of Georgia, to make a common effort to obtain a decisive expression of their sentiments, concerning tin establishment of a Court of Errors. But the r'commendation of Grand Juries in this matter is not suHi ient; the sentiment of a county may nr may not bo expressed; & we are warned by experience of so* ii recommendations having been so often made without of fer’, that vve propose a direct refer ence of the question to the peopl--. Upon subjects of less importance to us a public vote has been solicited, and has been received as conclusive of the fate of any contemplated alteration of o=ir laws, or the constitution.—-Such a resort to the people is a modern im provement in representative govern ment, pro. J aiming i:i the Hall -if Le gislation the will of the constituent up *n constitutional changes, without impairing the dignity of th” represen tative; or controlling his freedom of action, in prescribing the details t give effect to such positive demonstra tions of the public voice. Indeed it ! is the only manner in which the p *o jde, in a representative government, can act demo’ati a Iv; arid by i’ mre certain and u -biassed expres sions of their sentiments can be given than were ever obtained in the aggre gate assemblies of renowned an int democracies. We therefore recoin mend the exercise of a right upon t ns occasion, by the people, and will very bri- fly state some of our re .sons f. deeming the subject of such imp ir tance. We think the Judicial System of Georgia needs a Court of Errors because i’s practical operation wi h out such a court has destroyed th permanency and universality of the law, as a rule of action. Because e ven in the same district, the law of yesterday is not the law of to-day, tin* decisions of a Judge are not obligato ry upon his successor; and the proof which at one term to enable a p irfy to recover, will not be sufti ient at the next; not because there is any change in the evidenee, but because the law has been changed by the change • f the Judge. We object to the Judicial System of Georgia, because it confides to til judgement of a single ind vidual (su preme in his circuit, and from whos decision there is no i.ppeal.) the grea* lights of life, liberty and properly. It is notorious that in counties ad jarent, but in different (irruits, th law applicable to our ordinary r- n tracts is differently administe e 1 That evidence which would fix tie liability of parties to notes of hand aiul ! bills of exchange in one circuit, would be insufficient in another; and the rub s regulating the introdu*. tion of test into ny in a tic ns to try ti les to land, are so variant aid opposite in different circuits, that with the same evidence, one man has recovered his estate, whilst another, in au adjoining coun ty, and of a diff rent circuit, has been permitted to maintain a tortious pos session. The statute of the. St ate prescribing the order of pay iog debts of <*xe utoi s and administrators, is diff n utiy ad miuisCred, and their li./u i>y t> an a-tion for a devastavit depends op m fhe.ircuit into which th y ma) re move and reside, after having fully and fairly administered the estates represented by them in hik-i ue.r. Onr Penal Code is diff r n ly in terpreted in different circuits, ami the sane larceny consigns one felon t> ti e Penitentiary for years, and an olher to the whipping post. These, are some of the existing differences in the administration *f our laws; many others might be adduced, and the on ly remedy to prt v*ut the multiplica tion of them, is a C him of Errors. We therefore respectfully recoin - in n-l to tin; People of the county us Ch*ti a u. to give oil the first Monday i’ O tuber next, an expression of Ibpii sentiments upon this sii>ij<*ct; and i\ q.iest th t tbe M igistrat s presiding at the election on Hint and -y, will act as a Com i ittee to r t eive their votes We reap ctf-.ily reoimuiei.d to our fcliovv cihz ns in every ounty, to a dopt ihe same mode and tine , to oh tain a similar expression of puhlit sentiment. We request the Justices of the 1 - ferine Court to act as a . ommittee ol C.-rrespeiidenre te circulate this pre sentment into every part of G orgi-*; and to devise, in connexion with oth enommittees that may he appointed, the best way of giving fficacy to tin will >f the people, when it shall be ex pressed in this regard.
