f OUNTY COURTS. , ,
An able writer has pttblished four Numbers
in the Hartford Titties upon the change in our
Judiciary system recommended by Mr.Slier-
inan at the last session ofthe Legislature.-
‘We intended to have given these remarks a
place in our paper but the first No. was un-
fortunately iiiislaid. The 4th No. is as fol-
lows, and will be interesting as containing the
writer’s opinion with regard to the most unob-
jectionabletnetliod ofinaking a change in the
eystetn, ifa change he demanded.

Ifa change otfsysteni should bedeemctl ne-
cessary, certain am l, .tlia_t the one contained
in Mr. Slierman’s bill, is entirely the wrong
one. It is incongruous with our habits, autl
‘will be at war with our_prosperity.' It propo—Il
scsa change where it is not iiecessary, and
suggests a remedy. which in itself will_be an
‘immense prejudice to our best and detirest in-
terests. Stability and peace will give way to
hazardous eiiterprize.

The attention of our citizens should be di-
rented to seine course that will prove benefi-
cial." , As it siibstiitite for this visionary scheme
one inay be suggested which has been the r_e-,
stilt'ot'_tlie collected wisdom ofthe nation, and
stood tlie_ test of experience. I refer to the
system adopted by the constitution of the U.
States, and carried into effect by the laws of
Coiigress. ,l\'Iany years have elapsed, 8L the
Judiciary of_ilie United States has been found
to answer every demand ryfjustice. Perhaps
the increase ofpopulation and business re-
quires, in some parts ofthe Union a propor-
tionate iticrease,ofJt_itlge5. VVe are familiar
with that system. And" as it is clear that the
new bill will begin at the wrong end, to reme-
dy the evils complained, of, we have only to
say that by suggesting some nioditication of
the County Courts, anti putting thetn oi) the
plan ofthe Circuit Court of the U. States ;—
increasing their final jurisdiction, a complete
remedy will be furnished, fo‘r,tli~e evils com-
plained of, whether those evils are imaginary
or real. Then let the Supreme and Strperidi
Courts remain just as they now are. _

As to the County Coui'ts, divide the state
into two circuits in the following tnantier, viz.
Hartford, Windham, New-London and Tol-
iaiid c.ouiities, to coiistitutétlie first Circuit.
Netti-Haven, Faii‘fiel’d', Litclifield and Mid-
dlesex to constitute the second Circuit.

In each oftliese circuits appoint one Judge,
whose business and duty it shallbe, to preside
in each of the counties in that circui-'t. Ap-
point in each county one associate Judge, to
reside in that county,to set with the presiding
Judge in term time, and in vacation, to dis
charge the ordinary duties of a County Court ,
Judge in taking bonds. siipet'intendin'g cottnty
properiy,&r.c. 8Lc. Increase the final jurisdic-
tion of this court to the sum ofotie liund-i‘ed_
dollars, except in cases wherein the title of
land is concerned. Make their jurisdiction
in criminal cases concurrent with the Supe-
rior Court, except where the punisliineiit is
capital, or itiiprisonttieiit for life. The
amount of rnoney now paid as salary to
all ilie County Court Judges“, will be ade-
quate to cointiiand such legal talents, in the
County Courts, as‘ will give Illfill-l‘ -veiglit of
cliaracter, and prevent a niuitiplicity of ap-,
peals.

This system will in a great degree, lessen
the business of the Siiperiur Court, and reti-
der the duties of the Judges of that Court
less arduous, in sticli a niaiiner as to prevent
delay.—--—-—Iii the state of Maine, tlii‘s'sys-

There is ‘no longer any‘ mystery as to the
cause of the delay ofthe Senate in respect to
the Panama Mission. Mr. Randolph has rai-
sed his visor and placed himself and the oppo-
sition before the \world in bold relief, in all
their naked deformity; and iflie can:carry his
point, we may expect liiiti to turn round as on
it fortner occasion, and cast itin our teeth,tliai

. we are a race ofdoughfaces, that they wanted

three atid they got theiii—aiid had they want-
'ed three more they could have had iliem.—
The oppositioti to the measure is plainly, and
solely founded upon the fact, that the South
.dmcrt'ca7i ' Republics have 4 abolished Slavery,
and have practically, as well as theoretically,
declared all men to be created equal. We are
glad, however,iliat the avowal has been made.
'l‘here is now no coiicealmeut in the case.-—
Tlie great body ofthe American people——the

_ citizens ofthefree Slates, are now at-quaitited

with the cause of the opposition, and know
how to appreciate it. Mr. Randolph speaks
ofdrawiiig a line across frotti Ohio to the
Potomac. We reply in his own language
to the President---«-‘‘ Let him !”—-Spectator.
SPEECH of .\Iit. RANDOLPH in the Senate
of the U. States on the 1st inst. upon intro-
ducing a_iiiotioii to request ofthe President
such iiiforination as he may possess respect-
ing the iiiietitioiis ofthe Congress ofPana-
ma, toticliing the question of negro slavery

Mr. Randolph rose and said he wished to
do what was with him a very utiiisual thing-—
not only to make a motion, but to make one
asking information fr. the Executive branch
oftliis‘ Government. He had seen a procla-
mation purporting to have been issued by the
celebrated General Bolivar. He had learned
—--and he had learned with satisfaction, as far
as regarded the fame and reputation of that
distinguished individual—-tliat tlt2itproclama-

* tion had been disclaitned by the consular au-

thority here as a fabrication, at least a fabri-
cation so far as it related to that particular
part ofthe proclamation which hatl attracted
his attention. Mr. R. said he was glad ofit ;
but although, said he, that proclamation may
be a fabrication—and no doubt it is so-—it is
as tinquestioiiably true as that proclamation
,is false, tli-at the principles contaiiied in that
proclamation are the avowed principles of the
renowned individual to whom I refer; they
are the avowed principles ofthe Governments
over which he exercises almost unbounded
sway; they are the avowed principlt-.5 of the
peoplecoinposiiig those States—ifStaies they
may be called which States are none-and
tlierefore it is, said Mr.R thatI wish for some
official lllftJl'l1l2lllOll—_-HUI to satisfy myself’-—
iiot to delay any business that is, or may be,
before the Senate; I do not wish to wait for
it, but official iiiforinatioii that may satisfy the
American people as to the true character of
those states.

_ It is well known, said Mr. R. that in his
public message to Congress, the President of
the United States has intimated to us, atid to
the world, tltruugli us, that an invitation of a
certain cliaracter has been given to hiiu, and
that in conseqiieiicc, ininisters will be sent to
the Congress about to he assetiibled at Paria-
ina. He hoped that the Ministers, whoever
they tniglit be, would be of that character and
description who would labour under none of
the odiutis and exploded prejudices, which
revolted and repelled the fastidious Southern
man fr. Al‘l‘lC'<1nS-:l.I‘0ln associatiiig as equals
with’ them, or with People of African descent
—that they may take their seat in Congress
at P-anaiiia, beside the native African, their
American descendants, the mixed breeds, the
Indians, and the half breeds, without any of
fence or scandal at so motley a mixture. Mr.
R. believed it was well understood as to the
State-—-not the State in which this Congress
is to beheld, butin the immediate visciiiage
of the province where the Congress is to as-
semble—-Guatetnala—he believed it was cuti-
sidered as much a black Republic at this titrie
as Hayti itself. There is, said Mr. R. a great
deal of African blood in old ‘Spain-——in the
South of Spain—thoiigli not all negro blood
—from the opposite coast of Barbary. _'I‘liere
is afurther deierioratiun——i'f a detérioratioii
it __be-—in the Creole Spaniards, in all the
Spanish 31- Portuguese possessions, but above
all in Guatemala, the iinmediate adjacent
provitice to Panama, and Brazil. Now these
things, said M:.R. which are of no sort oi
importance to some people, are of vital im-
portance to that district and description of
country, and not altogether coiitemptible,
whether in point of extent or uuinbers, not
quite utiworthy_of being taken into consider-
ation in the deliberatioiis and decisions oftliis
body, and of the Federal Government. He
would not detain tlib Senate farther than to
suggest, that he had heard that this great tiiaii
—-he had no'_ doubt’ lie was a great man—a
good mati.—-there. ti/“.ei'e a great many such
great and good tneii'—Lafayet'ic was one of
tliciii—-at the comiiieiiccinent of the French
Revoltition--would not hear of any parley at
all with what they called the iinprescriptible
rights of tnan——they played’ the whole gatiie,
they would not hear of qtialificatioii, and we
see what tliisdesperate game liaseveiitiiated
iii—extremes always beget one another. This

‘General Bolivar, called the South Aineri'caii

Wasliington—as every man, said M r. R. now

Caesar or a l-lanuibal,‘a Eumencs or Sertorius
at leasi—so he i:i"tb‘e South American Wasti-
iugioii. I roineiiibei", sir,'tliat the old Earl of
Bedford, when he was coiidoled with by a
hypocrite, who wished in fact to wotitid his
t'eeliiig7s, on the tiiurder of his son Lord Rus-
sel, iiitligmintly replied that he would not ex-
change his dead suit for tlic"living son of any
itiaii oti eaitli. So I, Mr. Presideut,~ would
not give our dead Wastiiiigton for any living
Wasliington, or any Wasliiugtoti that is likely
to live in your tiine, Mr. Piesideiit, or mine;
wliatevcr may be the blessings reserved for
iiiankind in‘the womb ofiiiii_e. I do know— '
the world knows——-that the principle of the
Atnerican Revolution", and the principle that
'is‘now at work-'in“tlie' Peninsula of South A-
iiterica and ll]. Guateiiizila and New Spain.
are principles as opposite as light and dark-
»iiess—-priiiciplcs as opposite as a iiiaiily and
rational liberty is opposed to the franctic or"
rgies of Freucli Bacchanals oftlie'R_evoluiioti,
as opposite as a manly and rational piety is
opposedto that pulitico-religious fanaticisin,
which, I aiiisorry’ to see, isuot at work only
in the Peninsula of South America and New
Spain, but has pervaded, or is pervading, all
this country", and liéis”itisitiuated itself wher-
‘evei"it'can, to the disturbance ofthe public

No, sir; they are as diifei‘ent'as light 31. dark-
uess—as eoiniiiou sense and practice differ
from the visionary theories of iiiooii-struck
lunatics. .

The Message ofthe President is before the
world. The President of the United States
has told us that he will act, and that he has
the power. Let hiin—let him aci—-let litin
act on his own responsibility ; but let the A-
tiierican People—and especially that part of
the American People—-that portion of them
who reside South of the Ohio, and South of
Mason and Dixon’s line—know what are the
deputies whom hereafter we are likely to.re-
ceive in return from tlietn, in character and
color,to our Congress‘——tliis is what[ want.‘ to
see. I want this to open their eyes——I want,
instead of public opitiioii re-acting tipon its
from uninformed p|ll)llCl)0(.lle99 l‘‘_’‘‘'‘’}’‘3’ 78'
spectableg from toasts giveti at public tliniiers,
however respectable the guests; a Holy Alh-
ance of Liberty in opposition to a Holy Alli-
ance ofTyraiits——I want the good sense ol
the People of the United States to be inform-
ed as to the fact; having the tnost perfect reli-
ance on their decision when they shall have
the facts, and having a disposiiioii to submit
most implicitly to that decision, whether it
shat] agree with my opinions or not. From
these causes, I move that the President ofthe
United States he requested to lay before the
Senate such information as may be in the
possession of the Executive, touching the
principles and practice ofthe Spanish Anter-
ieaii States, or any of tlietn, late colonies of
old Spain, in regard to Negro Slavery-I will
submit the motion in writing.

[Having done so; and the resolution having
been rezid--] ,

Mr. Randolph again rose, and said he wish-
ed to stipply an omission in the remarks he
had made. It is not. said he, generally of
public notoriety that the Island of Cuba has
been in a state of alarm from a threatened
invasion from the Spanish American States ;
and that the chiefeause of that alartn arises
frotn the principles of those States in refer-
ence to this very question. Cuba, possessing
an immense negro population,wliicIi has been
increased since the destruction of St. Dentin-
go, incalculaby, by impottatioii, as well as by
natural meat-is.—Ctiha lies in such a position
in refer:-tiice to the United States, and espe-
cial to tlie'wliole country on the Gtilfof Mex-
ico, as that the country may be invaded from
Cuba in row-boats; and in case those states
should invade Cuba at all, it is unquestionable
that this invasion will he made with this prin-
ciple-—-the geiiitisofiiiiiveisal einancipatioti—-—
this sweeping anathema zigainst the white
poptilation, in front; and then, sir, what is
the situation ofthe southern States ? I throw
out these only by way of hints; itwould not
be decorous in a preface to a resdltitionflo
enter into an elaborate arguineut, which 1
could do. This is one oftliose cases in which

logic in the world—-—the instinct of self-prcs-
ervatioii. It is one of those cases in which
our passions instruct our reason. Ishtll not
consiiler whether the President ofthe United
States will send these Yilinisiei-s or ii0t.—He
says he will do it, and he is generaliy under-
stood to be a titan of his wortl——-at least, as
much so as to do what he has olficially said
he will do. Butl must consider how far I
feel disposed, by my vote,.to pledge Virginia
in the common cause oi states possessing
these principles—-aid l0 place our iieutraliiy
at the disposal of a belligerent Congress.

On the ‘.’.d inst. Mr. Randolpli’s resolution
was taken up for consideration,aud after sortie
discussion and a speech of two hours length
from Mr. Randolph, ordered to lie on the la-
ble. A correspondent ofthe N. Y. American
takes the following tiotice of the Speech.-
He says— . _

It was an indirect mode ofdebating in ptib-
lic, and ceusuring the expediency of the Pa-
natna Mission, which as yet has been discus-
sed only in secret sessioii. Having never be-
fore heard Mr. Raiidolpli, I listened with no
little interest, though with still greater aston-
ishment to his rhapsody, (I use the Word in its
original sense) ofinore than two hours. It

sort that fancy or iiietnory supplied at the
moineiit, and withotit reference to rule,=o_r or-
der, or metliotl, talknedvoti,sotnetimesId_eligbt-

guage, and now and then, though rarely, with
touches of trite eloquence. The basis of the

nection with those nations of this continent,
who have, like Colombia,‘ einaticipa-ted their
slaves. He descanted atleugth on this head,
mingling with his reinarlts all sortsflof sar-
casins against the Presitlentqand Mr. Clay,
though not by nanie,—and' deiiouiiciiig very ,
especially the heresy of that dtctuin_oftlie
Declaration of Independence, which instru-
ment by the way he qualified as “ an idle an-
farronade,” that “ all men are born tree and '
equal.” This he pronounced a’ ‘most perni-
cious falsehood, and like other vagtte bi. gen-
eral expressions, such as “ principles and not
men,” You tiiiglit as well said he, talk of
love, and not women, to have caused much
evil in the world. .

He discussed the cliiiracteis of Mr. Pitt and
