Hill, Of the Mocori Oar A SINGULAR CONTRADICTION Two facta have been mentioned in the ’Notes" which placed Georgia far in ad. vance of her sister States—the judiciary act of 1799 and codification in 1803. The delay in adopting the reformed procedure stands out as a startling contrast to tbe progress made In other directions. New York, which has no code yet, adopted this procedure In 1818, and it has since been adopted inmostof tbe 8tate* of the Union, receiving its crowning recognition by its adoption in England tn 1873. Its simple principle is that every suitor, whether he asserts legal or equitable rights, is requir ed to set it forth plainly, fully and distinct* ly. and everv defendant must set forth his defence in the same w»y. Any school-boy can understand tills; but it takes an in telligent man years to learn whether ! c mattname his pleading *‘petition"or “1 with the dreaded consequence, it ho m vk«*« a mistake, of being dismiss*J from « r »• . the other fictitious “side’ of the sai;* court. A STATUTORY BOOMERANG. In 1851 the Legislature passed a law which in tbelr innocence they entitled an "Act for the protection of farmers.” It provides that cotton and other produce sold on cash sale shall not be the pnperty of the buyer until ful'y paid for, although it may have been delivered into the pos session of the buyer, it constitutes sec tion 1,579 of the present code. The farm ers may well pray to be delivered from such "protection" •• this act gives them. If they sell cotton on cash sale and on ac count of any circumstance fail to get spot cash, the buyer may ship It to New York and if lost on the way refuse to pay for it because he has not alretdy paid for it. He may have insured it«aud may get nearly its value, but the farmer can get nothing Tbe idea that a failure to pay is acomplet- defence against paying at all is rich. It tempts one to say, with Mr. Bumble, "the law is an ass." The act enables a farmer r o recover his cotton as lonft as he can find it, if not paid for; but that ndvanUgo might be secured by an amendment to the act without allowing the buyer to make a defense out of his own default of payment. TIIE GLORIOUS UNCERTAINTY Off THE LAW tias received some remarkable illustrations in the decisions of the highest courts of thelsnd. Some years ago the New York Court of Appeals fell so much behind with its business that a constitutional amend ment provided for a "commission," com- itosed of jurists of equal ability with the judges of that court, in order to relieve the docket It happened that the same ques tion came before both tribunals at tbe same time, and th y unanimously ren dered exactly opposite decisions. The case of Edlot vs. Stone cane up twice before the Massachusetts court The facts in both cases were precisely the same, with a single exception, and that is expressly stated in the Tast opinion to be immaterial. The two decisiors are diametrically con flicting. A justice of the Supreme Court of New IIamp hire (31 N. H. 463.) decided tne same point both ways in the same opinion. The Supreme court of Georgia nave had the candor to acmit sev eral times that they reverst d tVm telves without kro'ing it, aud th? bet* lawyers in Georgia instead of laughing at them, laugh with them, know iug full well that under the eame burdens ihey could do no better. By tbe way, wherever the court overrules a previt us decision without having its attention called to the former case, it is a much greater reflection on the attorneys who ar gue the case than on the judges, THE GEORGIA LAW JOURNAL.
