Tho first section ol article 4th pro? vide?: ''The judicial power of this State shalt be vested in ? Supreme Coort j in two Circuit Courts, to wit: a Court of Common Pleas bating civil jurisdiction and a Court of G?n?ral.Sea? ??008 with criminal jurisdiction only; in Probate Courts ; and tn Justice* of the Paaoe. Tba General Assembly may l?so establish such'munioipil and other inferior cooria aa may be deemed ne? jessary." Tho twenty-first section of the aame artiole declares that('a compe? tent Bamber of Justices of the Pence thal! be oboaen in each county, by the ?ualified electors thereof, in suob man? ier aa the General Assembly may di 'oct They shall hold their offices for i term of two years, and until their luoeessore ar? elected and qualified. They shall reside/' ko., "and bo . com nissioned by the Governor." Tho twenty-second section of artiole Ith defines tba jurisdiction of Justices : Justices of the Peace, individually, or wo or more of them, jointly, aa the ?eneral Assembly may direct, have on final jurisdiction in oases of bastardy, nd in all matters of contract nnd ac> ions for the recovery of fines and for? aitures whero the amount olaiined does ot exceed ono hundred dollars, and uoh jurisdiction as may bo provided by iw in notions ex delicto where the delu? ges claimed do nut exceed ono hundred ollara, and prosecutions for assault," nd so forth. Thus, by tbe constitution, the juris iction of Justices of the Peace is de? ned, the source from whence they ball receive their power is pointed out, ad the tenure of their office is declared. If we recur to the legislative not in uestion, it will be found that the irisdiotion conferred upon the Magis atca is precisely that given by the institution to Justices of the Peace, ccept the amount numed in the net is E)9 instead of 8100, and that the court ttablished by that act is a substitute ir that provided by the constitution, ho first section of the act expressly solares that "until the organization of ie courts contemplated by sections I, 2? and 23 of article 4th of the con itution. tho Governor is hereby ithorized, empowered and required to >poiot a suitable number of fit aud ?acreet persons in eaoh county to act i Magistrates of such county.

FBRTILIZBBS. - It is now msnifeat that the agrioul uralist of thia section cannot continue he use of commercial fertilizers at the >rcsent ruling prices. There must and hould be a greater equality between the irofits realised by the manipulators of hese manures snd the plsntor or iroducer of cotton. The truth is, that rith cotton even at thirty cents, and rith the most successful planting trainable under existing circumstances, he greater profi$ derived from the rowth of tho great stsple is realized y the manipulators of the fertilisers hat have been employed in its produc? ion. With cotton at twenty cents, the isparity is of course greater; but with tie prospect of still lower prioes, or, ??th rices considerably lower, as now seems ) be the prospect, to pay for commercial irtilizers at the prices now demanded >r them, must prove nothing less than linous to tho planter. If the information at hand be correct, ie profits derived from the manipula on of the phosphates and other ferti zer* now sold, is simply enormous, nthusiasm in their behalf, and sn ear* cst and legitimate purpose to realize te advantages in increased yield to the nd and labor and other capital em toyed, which are the results of a judi lous system of feeding thc soil, has so roduoed and excited demand for them, tat, tho present year, even at tho high id disproportionate prices demanded, some instances tho supply lins not ?en commensurate with the demand, he cry was still for more. Tho result ' this, as previously intimated, may be s?st rous to tho country. lu fact, lould there bo any considerable failure ' the crop or dropping of prices (one the other of which would seem to be evitable, because, if thero bo an aver ;c orop from the increased area in titivation, the price must fall) thon a ry large and ruinous portion of tts oceeds must go to pay for tho fcrtili. rs which have been used, and to a eat extent bought on credit. If this ould bo so, and tho great scarcity and gh price of oom, and inability to buy whioh must be tho result, be coosid ed, it will be soen that tho condition our country must bo deplorable deed. And tho rosalt will bo attribu blo entirely to th? extravagant prioes id for the large quantity of eoinmor tl manures used and tho absorbing tention given to cotton. In any evont-whother tho prion of Mon advaooe or fall, or remain even as now rulos-foreign fertilizers must be eapeoed.
