Lord SK EL3IEKSDA LII presented a Petition (maths Opt ative Alanuiacturers of klanchester, praying that Government 4ould take steps to prevent the prevailing practice of paying labourers in goods instead of money. lb, Lordship said the prac tice they eismplainea of was now becoming a - very general one In Lancaster and York, and. indeed, in all the Lugo nsanofacturing 'counties through the empire. The measure prayed for by the pelt. dotter. should, it any where, originate in the other Holm of Par liament ; but he had taken that opportunity of calling their Lord ships' attention to the subject, that, in case any Hill should come from the !louse of Commons, their Lordships might be disposed is view it in a proper lighc--.Ordered toile on the table. sate mom COMPANY'S CHAMP.. The Marquis of I..ANADOW.7lsaid.onp;Tenting a Petition from one of the largest manufacturing town. in 'England. he hoped be might be permitted to call the attention of the House fora few minutes to the subject contained in it. and which certainly was one of lacerate and pressing importance. It was the Petition of Mem bers of the Chamber of Commerce in Xlanchester,• praying that their Lordships would take into consideration he expediency. of not allowing the moot,* to continue in the trade between this coun try and [Adis; and also, in coundering the •fxpediency•Mgranting a renewal of the East India Company's Charter, it pray-d that they should be guided by a view to secure the public interest and the benefit of the community at large. He (Lord Is) cusfessed be was not at present disposed to enter Moo the argument, or dis ciple the merits of the question; but this be should say, that if their Lordships intended to discharge their duty as thelegi.latisse power of the empire, they could not take too early an opportunity of in quiring into the real nature of the subject, and the consequences that arose out of the matter contained in that petition. He did not mean to call upon the Noble Duke nr any tat his Majesty's Ministers to declare his opinion upon the subject, or to make known the intentions of the Government respecting the Anal ad. jostment of the question. Not only he did nut intend to call upon his Majeky's Guvernosist .to du this, but be really hoped that they were not prepared to give any thing like a rash or hasty opi nion upon it. H. hoped their Lordship. would inspect the dome. mastery evidence that had been received before they formed an opinion, which oohs-would enable them to come to a more satis factory decWoo upon it. AS that be should now do would be to ask the Noble Duke, or the Noble Lord near him (Lord Navaho. rough), not what the opinion of his Majesty's Ministers was, but what was the course of the preliminary inquiry which they in :tended to adopt, and which might enable them to corn. to a Anil decialoo ? whelk/ it was their intention so appoint a Committee, which he certainly thought would be the best way to proceed. He 'could not be erne to allow the present &talon of Parliament toeless without moving foe seek documentary evidence, which could be' *reposed during she meek that might enable their Lordships and Alma& to some to t he consideration of the subject neat year, pro. vided with all the materials necessary on so important an occasion. ' The Whims was of such great importance that he hoped their :Lordships would ceinest to have it read at ler:gds, convinced as be 'was that is expressed the feehoga of ail the great manufacturing oovothrotbrooglorat. The l'etltioxi having been read at length, Lord ELLENBOROUGH said be could assure the Noble Weigle that his Majesty's Government felt equally with him the kstreMe kepettillar d the sobjeet to which be bad alluded ; and, bedies s be moltaullfe hie that. sioet the subject - began to bum- Ad en & log badllever lest sight el k. and from the kat dap .1 ollse bp had take amealoros for lay* Whore the Home of blejestyialikorevnisent, tea alba subject s. .bat BA,. It would not be denied that it was the dilly rst every Government to provide off ctuldly for the %/seedy administration of justice; and if that applied to' all count' ice, and . to all Governments, it applied Pecul liarly to so commercial and exteusive a country as this., When he called to their Lordships recollection that:it' appeased, from Returns laid before the-other House of Parlia*nt, that the property vested in the Court of ...hancery amounted to near 40,000,000 i. and when he reminded them that a con.iderable portion of that sum vested in the Uou!t of Chancery was the object of liti. Rani ,n and contention. he was sure they would see 'hat eful into est: of the country called . upon them to take life proceedings id that Court into their -attentive coh sideration. It vies important that no misapprehension should take place; they should endeavour to forma right conception of suits in Chancery. which bore little or no resemblance to suits in. Common Law. A snit in Common Law was one between two individuals con tending about a point in issue, which, was soon heard and -oon decided ; but in suits in Equity it was very different. The province of that Court was to take cog nizance of property, and afterwards to distribute that property amongst a variety of individuals. It was ob vious, therefore, if they were to contrast the Court of Civil Law with the Court of Equity, they would find that the complaints of misconduct and unnecessary de. ;ay in those Courts were rash and unfounded. He hoped they would allow him now to direct neir attention to what had been done respecting the Courts of Equity and Chaocet y. In the year 1825 a Committee was ap pointed fir inquiring into what hid been done in the Court of dhantery, and to inquire into those delays which existed, end which he (the L9rd Ch incellor) ad; mitted did still exit in the administration of justice in that Court. Tae Committee consisted of a number of individuals nio.t eminently qualified both by their learn. ing and information. He should now state to them to what die Committee had directed their attention. It Was found. that.thete was a itteae delay . between •tbit. c , tnimencenbent of the cause and the time that it came for bearing in the Court, and the Commissio.ors cense to certain resolutions, the object of which was to expo. dite the causes up to the time C.l hearing as much as possible. Tile.e resolutions had since been Acted on, tild he was happy 'to state that in these preliminary stases suits in Equity now proceeded much more rapiily than they dud berme. An this part of the case there were two viols only upon , which doubt remained, the or iocipal of which was the mode of examining witnesses. Upon this poi.it the Commission came to the conclu sion that no alteration should be made. He was bound to consider the conclusion to be correct ; still the subject was so important that it ought to receive lur ther_inquiry. The nest point to which the commission dimmed. th,ir attention was the period after hearing the cause, and upon this point they suggested sons aherations which were afterwards adopted. The Com. missioners also suggested a great variety of measures,' which were postponed for reasons to 'which be should presently advert. The Commissioners afterwards am. siieeed bow far they might accelerate the. cause at the time of, bearing. aid they naturally directed their at tention to this impoitant point. He did not, however, think they had attended sufficiently to that part, And he I was so.ry that the resolutious which they adopted were attended with no effect whatever in obviatin4 the great , evil compla.ned ul. When. he told their L .rdships that a period at t i,:hteen months ela,ssed between the setting down of the CA•vse for heating and the time when st was gone to be heard, they might form some ides of what or meant to convey. The evil did not., however, rest here. (The Noble Lord proceeded to enumerate many of the evils raising from the delay at the progress of suits in equity.) hut this, he should observe, was ' , ot an evil of modern times. In " The Life of Sir Z '.l ate" it was stated that when be came into the Court of Chancery he found it clogged up with causes, many or which had been twenty or thirty years in that state. They would find Lord Bacon, in a speech to King James, alluding to the same evil. In 1621 a member of the House of Commons, named. Alford, stated in his place in the House, that causes had been delayed in the Court of Chancery twenty or thirty years; and Coke, that the briefs in the Court of Chancery were mare numerous than could possibly be disposed of. In 1655, for he was desirous of ti acing it down to the pre sent time, which was during the Commonwealth. the attention of Parliament was directed to the subject, and a vote was passed to correct this evil. In 1707 a book was published. which was said to have been written by an attorney of the Court. It was not alone in olden times that those evils had existed ; they had been conti nued in modern days, and the Noble and Learned Lord (Eldon) would, doubtless, testify that they existed at the present moment. It was impossilde for him to name that Noble Lord, notwithstanding the political cliff& rencrs that existed between them, without adding that no persons could sit upon the bench which he had so long filled without having abundant opportunities of per ceiving and admiring the great sagicity and extraor dinary erudition displayed by the Noble and Learned Lord. It, had been said of that Noble and Learned' Lord throughout the profession, that no man ever doubted his decisions except himself; and he (Lord Lyedhurst) felt assured that none of the Noble Lord's predecessors had better understood the complex system of equit.y. There was another grievance, to which he iviShed to:direct the attention of their Lordships. .If a, serge set dorm for hearing were not disposed of quickly. various Gibbons arose out aft which would never have had existence if the cause had been disposed of quickly; and it *ciuld,of course, - often happen that these nO - whentdisposed of, would come again before the Court in the shape of re-hearingi. Another evil would occur, one which would be at once obvious to their Lordships.. During the years at which a cause most to pending many of the parties *sight die, and this the whole ufachinery of the case would be compli cated. He would theft ask if he had made out such a case as would justify their LotdshipS in interposing with reference to this twist abstruse and important mat er? I was certainly time so, to do if it were possible to do Joy thing, and she only question that could exist was as teethe mode in wfdch any 'alteration should be • made. It war endoubWly true that differences of opinion wou'd be found to be entertained by doff. rent tiidivis duals, but aWenen would doubtless concur in the hel•ef that a remedrbf some description wasabs.ilutely neces sary.

Their Lordships would feel at once convinced of its being essential to separate the equity proceedings at common law in the Court of Exchequer when they were inf firmed that not more than fifty equity caves had been decided in that Court during a year, being scarcely a seventh part of the number of ththe decided by the Master of the Rolls; and that not moue than five eases at Nisi Prius had been determined there during a Term, when as many hundreds had been decided in the Coutt of King's Bench. it seethed necessary, therefore, to `adopt the recommendation of the Committee in order to render effectual that which was now fa. from beitig so. He sus* lar.from designing to cast any oppi °brio in upon tbejudges of that Court. He was tar from attrs buting to them any wart of ability Or judgment. it was the vice .1* the system, the vi:e r , f use establish ment, of witch he 'complained. That Court was 06w filled with able Judges, and bad always been so; )et the evil no* existed. and had alsayi hien In existence. He proposed, then, that a new Judge should be . ap pointed by the Crown, a new Equity Judge under the Court of-Gbaocery, who shi - uld have p veer cf . hearing in..tions and decisnng upon the earl. us mat'rers now to be decided by the Lord Chincellor and tie Vice Chan cellor ; and he should propose that the Equity eases now - laid beore the Court of Exchequer 'should 'be trans ferred to this Judge, and that, consequently, 4.e should decide that Equity jurisdiction that nevi lay *sus the Court of Exchequer. He did nest Mean to pr pose that • this change should be made immednitely, but he .prs.. posed that the Judge should be now appointed, and be ready to receive that jurisdiction whenever Parliament should think proper. • He was thus anxious to state his view of the question, as a Member of the Gates nmeht, in reference-to the suggestions of the commi,sion of inquiry into the common law of the cinintry. Various improvements had been devised, and Bills were now preparing to emery them into effect ; but ti ere was ho probability that such 'Bills would be'Passed during the present Session of Pailiament,, although they might probably be panted, and stand offer until the neat Ses. sloth He thought their Los dships *mold be dispo. d to adopt the ginner part of these reci.airtiendations, and if, during the ne=t Parliamentary Session, Parliament should divide the Equity jurisdiction of Court of Exchequer from the common' leer juiisdiction, then would be the period for proposing t -e daioder of the Equity portion of it to that Judge. S ich a course ap pealed to him to be necessary for many reasons; one would be in refeettifee to compensation to Offiertb, which was usually granted; but the I ificeri of_ that Court could be transferred to that Cowl to which the Equity business would go. He had thus stated the geueial plaos and intentions of the Government. Tbere'reis another point to whirls he would beg to aii cif th dot tention of the Hots& .He alluded to' the office of Master of the Rolls, keit had inserted no clause re•pect ing it in this Bull, in cifesequence of the unhappy state of health in which thattLearned Judge now remained. No one could be more ',gable of the great and tra.uL able services, or of his *when and sagacity, thaw was he (Lord L.) and he hadibtroduced no clause bearing. upon his office into this Bilt, because he had had lib op portunity of cousultingiiiitt fn reference to it. But perhaps it was necessary, inasmuch as, in the year 1819, that Learned Gentleman, beitig then a Metobet or, the Houte of Commons, dttling a discussiot; on ihis, question, bad pointed out the great' advantages that would result from more lengthened sittingfot the blab.;, ter of the Rolls Court. Their' Lordships Were aware that the Master of the Rolls iat only three tirrifrs in the, week during Term, but then only four hours Charing , each of those three days. and that in the evening. But let not the House suppose that 12 bouts of the week; was thus gained to the Court of Chancery, fur upon the evenings when the Master sat it was the practice of.the • Court of Chancery to rife at three o'clock; so that efts Master of the Rolls only added six effective bouts to the Coos tof Chancery. He would adMit chit the pre sent Judge could do more in six hours than many, i:thers , in thirty; but the public.bad an undoubted right to claim a more extended service. Out of Term it was , not often that the Master of the Rolls sat more tban four evenings during the week. What hi . 020 0 Pl to 'propose was this—be had not, however, inserted is in the Bill—he proposed that the Master of the Roils should sit like 01 the-other Judges in 60..0'4°0144 breiking off their duties.. of carrot, when neeedsin ep • and this would add much to the advantage of tut pub.. • • - _ _ . .
