The third chapter of the third part, contains general provisions concerning courts of justice, and the duties, &c. of certain officers. All courts are fo be o~ pen to the public. No one can set as a judge in a cause in which he is iuleiest- ed, or in which be would be excluded from being a jitror by reason of affinity; nor can f^e decide a cause that was a rgu ed when be was not present, or which had been before determined by him as a judge of any other court. A judge can not practice in his own epurt, except where he is a party, &c. No judge can have a partner practising in the court of which he is judge,\or be interested in the costs of any suit brought therein so.— No judicial officer can take any compen sation for giving advice in any m atter pending before him, or of which he can take cognizance, or for preparing any pa pers in any such m atter, except where fees for the service are provided by law .- Courls can not be opened or transact any business on Sunday, except to receive a verdict: but single magistrates may ex ercise their criminal jurisdiction in cases provided by law. Proceedings are not to be discontinued by the failure of any s ta ted term of a court, but are to be contin ued at the next form ; and process may be tested on the first day of the term that should have been held. An omission to adjaurn a court from day to day, is not to vitiate any proceedings. Courts may or der new seals, whenever they are injured eel, The cases in vvhicli courts of rccQt^thgy piinish as for criminal con te m p t ore enumerated, let.

Chapter 4, of the third part, treats of actions and the times of corntnencicg them. All actions a t law, and suits in o- quity are embraced in the chapter. T h e limitation upon actions relating to r e il estate, is the same, twenty years, in t H cases, whether the suit be by the people, or persons claiming from them, or actio is to try the right, or those! which are mere ly possessory. T h e difficult and compli cated doctrine of adverse possession, is settled; w h at is to constitute it, in the two cases where it is accompanied by claim of written title, and where it is tn - accompanied by such claim ; its duration and its effect. But the details are too technical for,.these numbers. T h e rU‘bt of any one to the possession oflandi not to be affected by a descent being ct s t by the person in possession dying. A l l actions of debt, excepting those on I be judgm ent of some court of record, are to be brought -within six years ; and wit bin the same tim e, actions upon judgment JO courts, not being of record, (such as jus tices’, special justices’ courts, & c.) a so, all actions of trespass on land, or for ta king personal property, or fofany injiry to the persons or rights of any, except for assault and battery and false itnprisin ment, which are to be brought wit lin four years. All actions for words spo ken, including those where special de m age has been sustained, are to be brought within two years. Actions against si er- ifis and coroners for any liability incurred by acts in their official capacity, or for a- ny omission of duty, are to be brought within two years, except for escapes, which must be commenced within ane year. In actions, upon mutual, open and current accounts, the time o fthe last iiem proved, is to be deemed the time when the cause of action accrued. None of these provisions apply to suits on eviden ces of debt issued by monied corporati jns.

Tiie editore oftheBjaHimore American are indebted to th e \kindnefss o f a conb. mer^ial house in th a t o ity for the annex^ ed elctMCt o f a letter, dated Tampico, 2d January, 1'830. “ An express, arrived yesterday from the jcity of Mexico, which' brought the following statem ent, under date o f th e 23diult. L a s t night a g r ito w a s given in this ■ city in favor of Bustam tente’s plan, which has proved. most decidedly successful. T h e Government was obli ged to surrender the palace a t about 6 o- cloCk this morning, and.,|s completely overthrown. ■ A commission, consisting of t hree persons, Louis Q u intana, Lucas Aleman, Velez are named to exercise^the executive power until the arrival o f Bus-; taipente from Puebla. T h e ministe will be immediately named, but it is yet known who they will be. T h e re olution was effected without any of the violent excesses of last y e a r ; some at tempts at a saque were made by the Le- peros, but were immediately* prevented by the good behavior of troops. This morning the ^apital is i n ^ f e e t tranquil ity and good -order- \T h e president Guerrero, is with a body of troops (2000 men) a t some distance, and will, we sup pose be cpjnpelled to retire towards the coasts, as no hopes now remain for his party. Santa Anna has gone to Vera Cruz, and assumed the command o f the Public Lom L .-Soinie of the preten-ltToops'there. T h e views and intentions sions of popularity-hunting persons o f tb e ^ o f the chief dp not ^PPear to h e well un^ west as to the public liands, are sublinie** v ly ridiculous. One says that the money derived from the sales c f these lands, “ is paid out of the pockets of the people of the new^ s tates.” Trtte, very true ; but we guesS“th a t if a mbr buys a farm any where, and payaibr it, that the pioney will come out of his jiocket; and so if he buys a horse, or an ass, or a bog—-or a coat or a pair o f shoes, a gallon of wins or a pint of whiskey. T h e idea of ob taining land from a right and lawful ow~ ner without paying for it, is peculiar to these politicians. No other would think of such a thing.— JTile^s. o r ig ih ie d from the flue of a hot . w |en|i8eovered, 6o c o i ^ y l e t e l y ^ ed in Jam e s as to render hopeleg “ of t h j new furniture, Bangings m e n d , was saved, and an \ recently put up, was d e s t r f y e ^ , first floor of the boilding was ^'>6-1 as the Foreign Missionary ro?ms ^ thosd a large number of booksTnrf, ^ “ were burnt.

Loud complaints had been :made by his opponents that he has ruled the state and oppressed the people; but if they had spent h alfthe time in endeavoring to elevate themselves that they have in fruitlessly trying to un dermine his standing, they, and no doubt the public, would have been better off.— T h e only fault to be found with Mr. Van Buren, is, that his habits o f intense Iho’t iand untiring industry have raised him a> hove his fellows who trusted to the ad vantages conferred upon them by high birth and princely w ealth. I t has been said th a t ‘ whatever has been done by man, can again be done by any man.— W h e ther this is a true maxim or not we- shall not attem p t to decide but we do say, that industry lies at the foundation of all true greatness, and no man can rise much above his ordinary level w ithout e.xertiog it.
