In the Senate, the epeciel order wae Ben
ate MU H >. 14, to amend the law creating
the railroad commission, was discharged
by motioo ot Mr. Thornton, of tha Twanty-
fourlb, and 100 copiea of tbe majority and
1UUIIU) guu AWLJ|'ico va a teas luujuuijr »uu
minority reports of the committee ordered
printed lor tbe use of the Senate. The
bi t was made tbe special order for next
Tuesday.
The rulea were suspended for tbe par-
pose of taking up and putting on tu pas
sage the MU creating a new judicial cir
cuit, to be known as the "8tone Mountain
Circuit," as amended by the special Senate
commiitM.
Mr. Rankin, of the Forty-tblrd, opposed
tbe passage of the bill. Tbe necessity fur
a new circuit grew out of ihe overburdened
dockets ot tbe Atlanta circuit. He would
not deoy that the relit! ought to be giveu
to the Atlanta ciroult, and he thought it
could cully be done by rearranging the
judicial circuit, of thehirl-. Bjneof tbe
judges bays lesi work than others and are
engaged leu time o.tbeircirculta. By ar
ranging tbt circuits tbe work and time of
tbe judges could be equalized, and tue
needed relief all <rded tbe Atlanta circuit.
He asserted it the bill passed, creating the
ntw circuit tor the tsrm cf two years, the
rnult would be that the new clrcuii wuul.l
became permanent, and there would be
twenty-two judical circuits Instead of
twentj-one. He thought it an unnecessa
ry tax upon tbe people, u well u unjust
to the other Judges, and ought cot to be
come a law.
Mr. Davidson, in behalf of tbe special
committee, stated tbe reasons for tbelr ac
tion in reporting tbe Mil, and the neces
sity for its passage. In adJItlon to the
ordinary businese of the Atlanta circuit,
which is heavy, In Fultou, which is the
capital county of the State, the courts try
nearly all tbe important cues In which
the btateol Georgia it interested, which
does not cost tbe State a dollar. The
State ought to be the more willirg
to grant the reliet uked for. Since i"l
there have been brought over 2 7U0
new cues which are on tbe dockets,
not a atogle one of which hu been reached
or disposed oi. Both bar and clients ap
peal for relief from titleburdeiot busi
ness, which is beyoed lbs physiolcapict
ty oi any one Jodge. Three separate cl
forti bare bean made to create anew cir
cuit, or to tome other way give adequate
rebel.
Messrs Maddox and McBride opposed
tbe paaatge o! the bill in iu present shape.
To meet the objeotlooa ot Senator*,
mainly arising out of the apprehension
that the new circuit would bacume perma
nent, Mr. Ttgncr, ot the Tblrtj-Liiti, pro
pose.! in emend by altering the proviso to
the Mil that at the expire ion ol the term
proposed, Jenutry 1, 1881 tbe counties ot
Clayton and DiKalb to compote the new
circuit, eball by op.-ralion o! this law be
reattached to the Atlanta circuit
Mr. ltenkiu renewed hit opposition to
the bill. Hie argument wee for economy
and for the protection ol the poor tax
payers. He thought It wrong to put tbe
additions! tax on tha people when the
seme re.lef could be secured by detaching
the counties ot Clayton and DeKalb, and
potting them on aoj itnlng circuit*.
Mr. OoBy, ot the Twenty-ninth, fav ired

Of tbe special commute, to which this bill

| The alleged deficit in the treasury lias
killed a number of Important bill-*, and it
is in a fair way to kill others. Extended

On that committee are gentlemen who are
noted as men of affairs, well skilled In
business matter*. Through them the
Legislature is entitled to a deli
nlte end closr idea of tbe
condition of the treasury, that they may
legislate wisely and prudently, but not
blindly on meuures in which finance has
been made tbe controlling feature. This
question is apt to assume even greater im

Mr. John Kelly, a young man o! possibly
