Reform the Laws.
Earsyth ASv«rtiacr.
The great and growing coin-
plaint at the delay brought about
in the litigation of cases before the
courts evidences the fact that there
is need of reform somewhere in
this particular. Adjudication of
causes before the courts should
not be too hasty, but unnecessary
and provoking delay should be ob
viated. On this subject an ex
change very berti^ntly says:
But, perhaps the most urgent
reform is in the direction of legal
•proceedure. In the regular course
of litigation a lawsuit is the thing
of a lifetime. Young lawyers be
come gray-haired before the con
clusion of the suits begun in their
youth. The collection of a just
a id -t n lisputed debt is ( a thing of
years, and one had at out as soon
lose the debt as enter into a legal
proceeding for its collection. Such
legislation has seriously impaired,
abroad, the credit of our people.
Creditors must charge larger prof
its to induce them to take the risk.
The good and responiible must
bear this b.urden because the de
linquents are more numerous and
are the more active to secure
friendly laws behind which £o hide
tho fruits of their unskilled and
slothful operations.
The people frequentty demand
of their legislators the passage of
laws which seem unfriendly to
large corporations. Why should
thiB be the case. Does any one
imagine that any large body of
people ever wish to, impede the
success of a railroad corporation
which adds wealth to their com
munity? We apprehend not;. The
solution is simple and undeniable.
Legal proceedure has not .kept
pace with other reforms, and its
delays are loathsome. Under .our
proceedure corporations rich and
powerful may prolong Beyond for
bearance suits brought against
them, and when the people seem
ingly chafe against them, they but
fret against tlie wretched code of
proceedure .which admits of delays
which are simple denials of jus
tice, and of which any-litigant will
take advantage; Whether rich or
poor, weak or powerful.
Delays of justice are denials of
justice, civdor cridiinal, and breed
class legislation, and sow seeds of
corruption which bring forth
crime'.

She is a capital shot with the jrjfle,
and has worsted many of the crack
shots there with her unerring aim.
.She has,been out with her broth
ers hunting,.and very, rarely* fails
to bag a de.er .or other wild animal
which so abound in that section.
Sometimes the young miss assists
in capturing the wild cattle when
they tire Required for the market,
and then the Itiriat is'twirled with
a precision that often puts the va-
querSs to shame. * ....
A few weeks ago, after a daring
ride after a particularly wild and
fleet-footed steer, the young lady
laughed at the vaquero, who seem
ed afraid of ,the . animal, and
smilingly challenged him to throw
a rope over,the animal’s head and
ride him. The vaquero declined
with thanks. Mies. .Lucas then
displayed ti piece of courage and
daring worthy of the ancient Ro
man arena. Springing from her
horse, she went up to the bound
and bellowing beast, quickly and
deftly tied a rope around his head
and neck, and then told the vaqtie-
ro to turn him loose. This he did
reluctantly, and the enraged steer
was quickly on it® feet, but equally
as quick the fearless lass was on
its .back. Then commenced a ride
plunged into slavery. He says
that the removal of a little more
increase of the
accom-
of the
or blanket, whole body in a generation. The
negro colonists would take pos-
sessioti^in-Africa-of ..an extensive
and fertile territory and enter
upon a prosperous existence. The
removal of so many people would
also be equivalent to the acquisi
tion of new territory by the whites
.of the Unite^ States, and land ra
the states vacated by the negroes
would at once, rise in valtie. De
portation was once favored By
Abraham Lincoln, and in his
judgment, it, jvas the best that
could be done for the negroes.
So much for one side'of the
question. . Now, for the other. The
negroes living here are in some
sense Americans; they knovr noth
ing about Africa, and feel no .ties
binding them to that country. In
a word/they have no desire to go
there. Hqw, then, are they to be
deported? , There is another ques

several states makipg it a difficult
matter for emigration agents to

ed, as a punishment, to whitewash
the fence around his aunt’s place.
He persuaded his playmates that
whitewashing was ah art, and that
it was an especial privilege to be

the result that he had the entire
boy population offering ,hird va

How the House Stands.
... ^..' SaTMHisa Nswi.
There will be-no extra session
of congress unless something nn-
expected^:cetirs>to make .one nec
essary. The talk'of'an'extra ses
sion that was indulged in by the
republicans a couple of weeks ago
was based upon their fear that the*
bill admitting four mew states
would not be passed, and not upon
any necessity, recognized by them,
for legislation reducihg the, .sur
plus or lessening the burdens of
the people. - «-
Tney were afraid, that if the
new titates..Jve.re not admitted their
slight majority,in the Fifty-first
Congress might be wiped out by
death before the regular session
in December. They have - no such
tio such fears, as that now. The
House of this congress, on the face
of the returns, contains 164 repub
licans atid; 161.. democrats—the re
publicans having a inajority of 3.
The elections in the new states
will, iHs,.expected, take place in
November, and republicans, prob-
abiy, will be elected in all of them,
thus adding four :.to the republi
can side of the House, giving that
side a majority of,7... ...
This is a very slender , majority,
and will be by no means satisfac
tory to the republicans. There
are a great many contests, in near
ly all of which.the contestants are
republicans. The republican pari
ty has not a reputation for fairness
in election ; contests, and it is quite
certain; that the republican contest
ants will be seated in all cases
where there is the slightest pre
text for deciding in their favor.
Attention will be given to contest
ed election cases doubtless as
soon. as congress meets, and
enough democrats, unseated tp .give
the republicatis a safe working
majority.
