Decided in the negative.
The 20th Section was then read.
Pending the reading of the 21st Section,
Mr. Mackubin submitted the following amendment:
Section 21. Strike out all after the word "elected," in the
15th line, to the word "one," in the 19th line; and insert:
"The said Judges shall hold not less than two terms of the
Circuit Court in eacli of the Counties composing their respect-
ive Circuits, at such times as now are or may hereafter be
prescribed, to which jurors shall be summoned, and in those
Counties where only two such terms are held, two other and
intermediate terms, to which jurors shall not be summoned;
they may alter or fis the times for holding any or all terms
until otherwise prescribed, and shall adopt rules to the end
that all business not requiring the interposition of a jury,
shall be, as far as practicable, disposed of at said interme-
diate terms;"
Which was adopted.
On motion of Mr. Mitchell,
At 10 o'clock and 10 minutes P. M., the Convention ad-
