FOR THE WESTERN SUN. MR. stout Not having heard of any good reason, why decisions of our Circuit court should not be reported, I will call your's and the public's attention to the subjoined, a containing the learned opinions of one of our honorable President Judges, upon subjects of the most vital importance net intending, by the bye, to vouch for their orthodoxy and soundness. In the Gibson Circuit court fourth Judicial Circuit of Indiana, February term, 1821, before Jas R. E. Goodlet, President judge. Francis Hopkins, vs. Roland B. Richards, adm. of James C. Elliott, deed. On &7. J a. Quart- Karon. The sci. fa. in this cause, which was issued from the Clerk's office in vacation, is iu the usual form, to shew cause, if, &c. whv execution should not issue upon a judgment heretofore obtained against the deft, inequality of administrator for assets ultra, in the Cihson Circuit court, and returned bv the sheriff duly executed. The deft, plead, (in ihort, by consent) plcnc adnunistravit, to which there was (in like manner) a replication and similiter. The issue being thusj;.ntd (although an immaterial one) a jury was cmp.innclled. The deft. ofTe ed in ck:ence the records of the Probat or Orphan's court of Gibson, at their sittings in May and October, 1818, to prove a settlement of his accounts as such administrator to which the phff objected, because the said court being competed of the two associate Judges, and the deft, being one of them, could not sit on the bench of justice to settle his own accounts or adjudicate in his own favor, and referred to 1st Wilson's rep. 20.5, and 2d Wils. rep. 231, also certain acts ol the state legislature transfering the power of settling the administration and accounts of deceased persons, in cases where either of the associates were or should be interested as exr. or admstr. to the Circuit court that the settlement of estates in the county of Knox had been procrastinated for some time by reason of the objection now made, and which was only remedied by and after the passage of the acts above alluded to. That if in the despotic government of England, a man could not be a Judge in his own case or cause, much more forcibly should the objection apply, and exclude hurt in our republican and free government. The objection was, however, ocrruled by his hoi.or, and die record read to the jury and thus the case, (the deft, holding the affirm ative) was opened to the jury. The pltff. then in reply, stated the case on his part to the jury, after which he proceeded to dissect and systematize the evidence deducible from the said accounts, so settled by R. B. Richards i.s m;iijsu. atores ,.iu, wkh his honor K. B Richards,' as one of the as.oci-:tc Judges, and w ithout whom the said Piobat court could not have s,it (in this s tthrr.ent it mint be observed, were c-.tained accounts, and consequently allowance, without the least appearance of prod" or form .1 receipts) tha phff'. then offered oral testimony to p'ro that other 1 trgc sums of money h td came to the hands cf the admstr. since the above partial and ex-parte settlement, more than sufficient to cover the present demand; which being objc cted to by the deft. Suxauie it was not intrcduct d in the onset to which th" pltff. replied, that 4 the time and mr.nnc r of introducing the e aiei.ee was optional with him (in Burr's trial p..g'.- M, Judrc Marshall) hs honor, without hesitation, not onlv reh-ct-
