mS a I How are the facts, and I hope the Legislature will, by their committee, call him Ufore them, ai.d swear and examine him as a witnes?, ar.d thus tncirtain how arc the facts! We were deprived of reports of their decisions from November term, l?i, up to 1814, when the fft'i volume was published just six years and then the fifth volume only rej-ort-ed up to May term, 11 1 three years behind. We nuw, a few days arjfo. obtained tb& 0th volume, reporting from November, It? 1 1 , 11 ; to 1S-1.1. tf .1 . I a a .-.a It

nere ti.tn, tne people have bei n l.ept in the m-v from three, lo nix years as to what the law was, for the lieneht of the Hun. Isaac llackfrd. All this was wronc and unnecessary. Tiitse reports miht j ist as well have been published cverv year or eighteen months ns not; and if such bad been done, numbers of cases now in the court, and now undecided, because of their not boinjj reached, would never have come there, for the parties would have seen that the points contested in them, have long a ;;o been decided. But they could not sec it, tor the rcjort$ were not published. Hut is not the time and attention bestowed by Judrjc Blackford on tbe report", abstracted ( I ue a soft word, sir,) from the buMiies of the court and State! I venture to assert that they are, and that in attending to these publications, the Judc has neglect d his duties as a Supreme Jude. Now if the members of the Legislature doubt this, l..t them enquire i f the Jud'c how many cases, a) e, how many fftiis of cases he has on his hands, and has had for term after term, when his duty required him, and now requires him, to make out tiic decisions of the court; and which, term after term bo b;is neglected, some of them, until probably he has forgotten ihrm. Let all the Judges, if VOU t dense, be called unon. and rnrm.i lh-d tn nn.

swer the question; (and I fear the truth can only be ascertained in this way, for of couiso, his colleagues will be slow to say any thingr aainit him,) and my word for it, it will be fjuud that dozens of our honest citizens ae this day, and lave been fir year, kept out of their just rights for the Mike of profit to the lion. It?aac Rlackford. This thing has Leen crmitted to run on until further forlenranrc has ceased to be just. A year arn Judge Ulackford only de-ired the privilege of publishing one more volume, the sixth. He avowed himself willing and ready to give it tin. Whv does lie not do so! The reaM.n Unhvi.

Now I have no desire to do Jude Ulackford an injury; my only ediject is to prevent him from doing me, in common whith others, one. His circumstances in life do not require that he should "gather into his garner" at eur expense: he is r!ch

beyond tlie possibility of requiring it. He is a public officer, and all h.s time belongs to the pcojde, and

is an required lor their goed. He cannut attend to both these things and do justice. He shou.d quit one or the other; and if be will not willingly, (and there is little hope of that,) he should be compelled to. AtULr.icrj.

were assessed, upon the actual value. If direct taxes were

maue specitic, tney would be intolerable. Thus, if an an

not raise the price of our breadstuff: but a bad harvest in England does, giving us for tho time that foreign market which we would soon have at all times, by the repeal of the corn law. which must follow the reduction of our duties Hut whilst breadstuff rise with a bad harvest in England cotton almost invariably falls : because the increased sum which, in that event, England must pay for our breadstuff we will take, not in manufactures, but only in specie : and' not having it to snare, she brinrs down r. ...

(0 Politics should have nothing to do with tho

judiciary, say the Whigs. Header do you remember that as long as ten years ago, that party elected Gustavus A. Everts as President Judge over the lamented (Jen. Howard, for the northern circuit ? Hyperion to a saly r ! What a parallel ! liut then you must recollect that Everts was a whig and poor Howard was a Democrat. And yet they tell you that politics must have no.hing to do w ith the judiciary. Can any one remember any Democrat that the Whig leaders thought qualified f r office ! If so, jut name him ! We'll give the jvvhole range of our history and one week to d it in.

(XrWe perceive by .Morrison's Democrat, which was sent to us at a late hour vesterdav. that th luni-

r mf aB-uaa

1 resident has published an attempted defence of him

self and the Bank, through the columns of the "Fami

ly Organ." It is of course full of w rath towards US, for having the audacity to come betw een the wind and

his nobility ; but it is so perfectly weak and impotent,

as only to no worthy of laughter. To show how

very foolish, a man wise in his ow n conceit, can make

htniseli appear, we hall further notice the Eank Vre sidcntVs ebullition at our leisure.

That 's the Ti.vin. Just look at Mr. Ferguson advertisements. A better selection cf articles in the

Jeicclry line is not often met with ; and he sells them at very low prices f r c.s!i. Mr. F. attends j er tonally to time-pieces of every description ; and from his practical experience, no o.ie will find their money .V - a. ...

(jrIJy a statement in the .Madison Dinner, wa are made aware, for the first time, that Morrrison mutilated the President's message in his paper, by leaving out about tu-o columns of il ! This was done we suppose, for the sake of saving a few dimes as well as attempting to beat us. It is Morrison .7 over ! The Woman's Bill has pissed the Senate e f Georgia, securing the married women their own property, and similar to the law on the same ubject in Imisiana and Mississippi. There i a probability tf its passing the House. One of its provisions is, that the property, real or personal, in the possession of a woman at the time of her marriage, or which may become hers as legatee after her marriage, with the natural increase of such property, shall not be vested in her husband, or liable for his debts but that the

j artificial increase of such property, after deducting

expenses of support tf family, education of children, &c, may go to the use of the husband.
