Justifies of tbe Peace are chosen under the con stitution of this State with a view to the'exercise of the limited jurisdiction, civil and criminal, given to them by the laws of the State, which have been,chiefly iniorcetbe oen .tury; and itianottobe presumed; that they ehbuid'lmjhHmliar with the issning os niret, impanneliog juries, making up and cCvti fying bills of exceptions, and otider forms inci dent to the proceedings of courts of more ex tensive jurisdiction; and'any atteqipt.to require theperfomafloe of snob duties at their bands, .would, ip uty judgment,' .in the and, produce greater uncertainty, longer delay, and more ex ' pen?.e, than is incident to the present system. Apart from the local character of this bill, .and its innovation upon the well settled,praolice,of the State, there are other objections arising from its peculiar provisions. Some of the offences which it names as crimes are only trespasses under the general law Of the State, while the maximum punishmentfor the offence of << poi soning killing, maiming wouudiug, or duelling beatitig npy,animal,” is greatly below that fixed for tbe punishment of a similar offence by the existing criminal law. Speciallegislatiou for particular counties, not in their nature local, is a most pernicious system, and ought to be entirely abandoned. For the reasons thus briefly stated, lam com-' pelled, by a sense of duty, to return this bill without my approval, for-reconsideration. WM. F. P&OKBR." Pretty Steep.—-A number of the Attorneys of Cambria County, recently met at the office of one of tbeir number, in Ebensburg, and passed a series of reso lutions which ore calling down upon them the ridicule,of the press and their profes sional brethren everywhere. The resolu tions, are to the effect that they will not take charge of any suit or proceeding in law without the express understanding that they are to have no colleagues in the same who 1 resides outside of Cambria county, and that in cases now before the Court, in which counsel residing outside of the county aro concerned, the relation shall remain, but in all such cases, where one of the Cambria lawyers is earliest on the record, he shall control the trial and argument of the case. As our cotempo rary ,of the Tyrone Star. remarks, there is a pretty smart sprinkling of Know-Noth ingism about this. The Cambria Attor neys are either afraid of the Attorneys of other counties, or they possess a selfish spirit, which covets the pittance .they re ceive for thpir services. The first is hu miliating, the second anything -but Com mendable. ft may be only a little farce they are playing for the ( amusement of their brethren.

Ths Pryor and Potter Difficulty. -—The anticipated duel between Pryor, of Virginia, and Potter, of Wisconsin, which has 1 afforded a topic for considerable con versation and speculation for some- time past,; has \been quashed for the present by the arrest, and binding over of Potter, in the sum of §5,000 to keep the peace, and especially not to fight a duel.
