On ui-tion of Mr. Heaule. of Orange, the Assembly on Monday voted to raise a Select Com Biittee on the pr.'poied Code of Procedure in Criminal Cases, with Instructions to said Co_t mitt, e to report .-'? '. ;-.i *?'.?? of said Code as aho-ld be tettd on at the present s*?son. Of course, Mr. Headley will be Chairman of the ccn'-emplattd Committee, and will be coasulted in the choice of hisaiaociat?; so he must allow ui to hope that the timid sod hesiutini? thape which he bas giren to his rooolve was adopted rather to duarni oppoaiuon than as indicative of hii own Tiewof the matter involved. For it seems u? ui Very clear not only that the tctWr Code in ??um tioa ahoald be tcud on at this tension, but that fach raeceiiive Legiilature which hu n?sgle<*teJ to do to alaoe it was reported h m been guilty of r rery groti aegtaet of duty. Why not I The Reformed Coo.tiuiiouof l?li?-7 expreasly provided Cor a Codify Coaual??ion as a means to a Reformed Code ef Leg?, Practica. An able Commission was aceoidlagly fc,-,^, wkich pro caoded to 4o the work aaairned it. Whoa it woe 4i-Bb a Battifof um Ib-Mbc?.

Tbi? ha? low been for lever?! tears in BBB. and. ia ?pite of the Bfltsnl repugnance to Dew ru>? of prafltioner? w_?

And yet the condoling report of t_*? ?ame OflflBflBSBSESi embodjii.g a carefully digested i Code of Prs'ticD in Criminal Caaes, bai .tin tat ?fimo ?tin on the table? of the two Houses un I acted an, uni-on?i?l?*red. an! donbtlen by moit ? memberi unread : I* thi* filelity to preicribei duty ' We do not believe the lawyer opposition t> thi? department of the Commtoiiraera' Report ii any atronger than that originally made to the I fint Report?indeed, we think it lei* <-%r'i?-.t i ?nd gen?ral. Everj probability favor* theas I aomption that thit [portion of the Code, ai re? ported, ia finite aa important and valuable ai that which baa already been adopted. At all event?, it ?! the Legislature's plain duty t? act upon the xtholt ti the R?p*?rt as yet anadopted, not a part taly. Either House? may, of courie reject any chapter, sectiun. or clause, which it mvy disap prove, bi.t we deny tie right of any Cotnm't'?-?* to ?hove a part of the Report out of sight m un? worthy t?i be coniidered by our ?Solon? of l-.... The P?O?*.'e, iti ^ojiting the Reformed Comtiti tion, virtuslly predetermined that thi vhole Re? pent of the Coiunits'on wai worthy of being acted on by their ?crvant* in the* Legislature au i gave directions accordingly. Lot the Committee report, if they eee fit, that certain portions of the I Repoit of the Commiiiioner? ought not. for rea? son? stated, to he a/optc. by the Legislature. j ind let the twolloiiseiicverally act on thtt juig I ?nent of their ?even.] ffl??BllttffM, vvA let nil the Code a? yet unadopted be acted oa by the Legislature ituelf, and ie. each member taka! tin r. iponnilility of voting V?b or Nay on every en tested point. Thus will the People be able to see just what blow? ate ?truck and who ?trile them, and if the Criminal Code of Procedure be mangled or defeated, they mty pla*?e the MaSM where it jmtly belongs. i. viroi: AM?
