The Weekly Times. “ Nullius addictus jurare in verba magistri." MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1867. POSTPONEMENT OF THE SUPREME COURT SESSIONS.

A. considerable amount of dissatisfaction is expressed by the Hawke’s Bay public at the continued disappointment experienced by persons interested in the forthcoming sitting of the Supreme Court, whose arrangements have been again and again interfered with by the non-arrival of Mr Justice Johnston on the dates appointed. The complaint is not without some founda tion iu justice, for it is a leading doctrine of his Honor, more than once expressed, that all private matters must give way to the public interests represented in the courts of justice, and the doctrine lias sometimes been brought to bear in a practical manner. Of course it is not iu our power to say what keeps the Judge from fulfilling his appointneut here; but we do think that itnely notice should be given to all parties concerned, so that they may know, before the actual arrival of the steamer supposed to bring him, that he has been unable to come.
