Gentlemen , Pursuant to the wishes of the Grand Jury of this county, we beg leave to hand you their presentment on the subject of establishng a Court fur the Correction of Errors in this slate. 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 pf o pie 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 October next, will receive the votes of the people on this subject; that all voters favourable to the establishment of su< li a tribunal, will write on their tickets COURT OF ERRORS, and all those opposed to it NO COURT OF ERRORS; and for the purpose of giving effii a< y to the will of the people, let a return of the vote so taken he made to the Executive Department, to be laid bo fore the ensuing session of the Legisla ture. tie are Gentlemen ♦ Respectfully your Obeilt.

Extract from the presentments of the Grand Jury of the Superior Court of Chatham County, May Term, 1828. We will not conclude our pre sentments without an earnest recom mendation to our fellow liiizens, the People of Georgia, to make a common effort to obtain a decisive expression of their sentiments, concerning the establishment of a Court of Errors. Hut the recommendation of Grand Juries in this matter is not suffit ient; the sentiment of a county may or may not be expressed; A we are warned by experience of such recommendations having been so often made without ef fect, that we propose a direct refer ence of the question to the people. Upon subjects of less importance to us a public vote has been solicited, and has been received as com lusive of fli?“Tate of any contemplated alteration of our law s, or the constitution.—Such a resort to the pe< pie is a modern im provement in representative govern ment, proclaiming in the 11*11 of Le gislation the will of the constituent upon constitutional changes, without impairing the dignity of the represen tative; or controlling his freedom of action, in prescribing the details to give effect to su* h positive demonstra tions of the public voice. Indeed it is the only maimer in which the peo pl'*, *n a representative government, can act democratically; and by it more certain and unbiassed expres sions of their sentiments can be given than were ever obtained in the aggre gate assemblies of renowned am ient democrat it s. We therefore recom mend the exercise of a right upon this occasion, by the people, and will very j briefly state some of our reasons for deeming the subject of such impor tance. Me think the Judicial System of Georgia needs a Court of Errors, because its practical operation with out such a court In s destroyed the permanency and universality of the law, as a rule of notion. Because e ven in the same district, the law of yesterday is not the law of to-day, the decisions of a Judge are not obligato ry upon his successor; and the proof whii h at one term to enable a party to recover, will not he sufli ient at tin next; not because there is any change in the evidence, but bc ause the law has been changed by the change of the Judge. We object to the Judi< ial System of Georgia, because it confides to tin judgement of a single individual, (su preme in his circuit, and from whose decision there is no appeal,j the grea 1 rights of lile, liberty and properly. It is notorious that in counties ad jacent, hut in different circuits, the law applicable to our con tracts is differently administered. That evidem e which would fix the liability of parties to notes of hand and bills of exchange in one circuit, would be insufficient in another; and the rules regulating the introduction of testimo ny in actions to try titles to land, are so variant and opposite in different circuits, that with the same evidence, one man has recovered his estate, whilst another, in an adjoining coun ty, and of a different circuit, has bet n permitted to maintain a tortious pos session. The statute of the State prescribing the order of paying debts of ext< uturs and administrators, is diffi remly ari-j ministered, and their liability loan action for a devastavit depends up >r the circuit into which they may re move and residt, ..lor having fi.ily and fairly administered the estates represented by them in am-toer. Our Penal Code is differently in terpreted in different circuits, and the same larceny consigns one felon to the Penitentiary for years, and an other to the whipping post, Tuese are some of the existing differences in the administration of our laws; many others might be adduced, and the on ly remedy to prevent the multiplica tion of them, is a Court of Errors. We therefore respectfully mom-! mend to the People of the county of Chatham, to give on the first Monday! in October next, an expression of their sentiments upon this subject; and re quest that the Magistrates presiding at the election on that and y, will act as a Committee to re< eive iheir votes* We respectfully recommend to our fellow citizens in every county, to a dopt the same mode and time, to ob tain a similar expression of public sentiment. We r< quest the Justices of the In ferior Court to act as a committee of Com\spcndence to circulate this pre sentment into every part of Georgia; and to devise, in connexion with otti er committees that may be app unted, the best way of giving ♦fficary to the will of the people, when it shall be ex pressed in this regard ( Carriage Making. ‘I'HE Subsi fiber respectfully in * forms the public, that he still car ries on the above business in Warren ton, and continues to m<<keand repair Carriages of all descriptions at prices corresponding with the times.
