¶1Mr. Justice Marcy said he would take the papers if counsel were not prepared to state and argue the question which was intended to be raised, although, under the present arrangement of the business of the court, it was desirable that counsel should argue the questions, as thus the labor of wading through voluminous papers would be saved to the court, and their attention directed only to the important facts and points in the cases presented.
