About two o'clock, the case having come to a conclusion, Council were ordered to withdraw, and their Lordships adjourned. The Regulations in questions are to be suspended for a month ; their Lordships in the interim will, it is ex pected, make known their decision. ANTI-POPULATION MANIA. Lady BEAUMONT, who died a few weeks since, at her seat at Colcorton, near Ashby-de-la-Zouch, and who was relict of the late Sir GEORGE BEAUMONT, by whose death the title be came extinct, used to make a practice, for the purpose of impeding the increase of population, to reject all candi dates for farms, or other situations in her patronage, who had large families of children, and even those who had been lately married, if there appeared a probability of a numerous family. She even went so far as to call on some of her tenants, and tell them she should dismiss them from her estate if they had any more children; and she compelled a schoolmaster and his wife, whose situ ations were in her appointment, to sleep in different bed rooms, and threatened them with the loss of their situ ations if they had any more children ! MAGISTERIAL DECORUM. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. SIR,-It was a memorable saying of SIR Jouw Fix en, sometime Chief Justice of the King's Bench, that " whoso taketh from a Justice the order of his dis cretion, taketh surely from him more than half his office:" And as truly may it be said, that when any Mi nister of Justice, from the ermined Judge down to the District Magistrate, so far trifles with his own discre tion, as to forget that be is " the voice of the recorded Law,"—and suffers himself to 'we betrayed into the use of expressions unsuited to the solemn dignity of his station, he sets a pernicious example calculated to destroy every sentiment of veneration which should attach to his dele gated authority ; and instructs the people how easily they may " Forget his place. The Majesty and power of law and justice, The image of the King whom he presented, And stock him in his very seat of judgment." I in the ordinary occurrences of life, our every day experience sanctions the proverbial truism, that " fami liarity begets contempt" even amongst equals ; it is not in human nature to resist the temptation which the un seasonable jocularity of those " who are placed in au thority over us," holds out to men who eagerly watch for opportunities of reducing all who are their superiors in talent or in station, to their own level ; and assuredly, when Magistrates, in whom an awful power is vested, can admit thoughts of levity to mingle with their judicial deliberations—and allow their " lightest thoughts" " the lightest words"—their con descension is derogatory to the importance of their official station, and detrimental to their personal respectability. However ungracious these remarks may seem, they have been forced from me by the reported proceedings in two cases, which appeared in your excellent paper of Friday evening, the 2d inst. The first case is stated to have occurred at the Insolvent Debtors Court, on Thursday, when a person named EARLE " appeared on his petition to be discharged." I purposely ab stain from any unnecessary allusion to the circum stances disclosed on that occasion with respect to the alleged interference of certain Noble Lords in the concoc tion of Anti-Catholic Petitions ; and pass at once to that part of the examination of the opposing creditor, SPA a llow, in which it appeared, from his replies to the inter rogatories of the CHIEF COMMISSIONER, that " EA RLE, at the time he received a sum of money from Se.% a Row , observed, his father had a splendid estate in Hereford shire, and witness and insolvent should go down in Sep tember and have a day's shooting." The mention of this " day's shooting" (the Reporter tells us) " produced ex cessive laughter, in which the Court joined." So far the most fastidious observer of judicial etiquette could see but little to object to ; but we are told that the Cum' COMMISSIONER, on hearing SPA IMO w , in continua tion, say that " EARLE intimated that he was officiating as the agent of a certain Nobleman," again provoked the risible faculties of the crowd by saying, " and you be lieved this as well as the shooting excursion ?" the wit ness answered, " I did," and again there was laughter: and when SPARROW further stated, that " seven or eight young 'men were engaged to circulate the Anti-Catholic Petition;" the CHIEF COMMISSIONER, who, if the report be faithful, seems to enjoy " a fool-born jest," even as well as a certain ermined Peer of the Sister Kingdom, could not refrain from once again recurring to the source of mirth and laughter, by asking, " Were they all to go a-shooting ?" And again, we read, that this happy sally was followed by " a laugh." What the Court said to laugh at, or what moved the irreverent blockheads in Court to laugh at the Court, it would, in my humble judgment, be difficult to discover. For the talent, the humanity, the impartial and upright conduct of the CH Er COMMISSIONER, I entertain the very highest respect; but proportioned to that respect, is the deep regret I feel, that he should ever have subjected himself to the reflec tions which such a report as that which I have been considering, is but too likely to occasion. The Court over which he presides with ability, discrimination, and zeal, is one in which, of all others, the sternest scrutiny should prevail; for the provisions of the Act, under which it is held, as they are too often made the loop-holes through which fraud and chicanery evade punishment, so are they, consequently, to successful knaves," argument for a week, laughter for a month, and a good jest for ever," without needing any extraneous inducements to bring the tribunal into contempt. It is impossible to read the proceedings in EARLE'S case, without being reminded of that ludicrous scene in GOLD SMITH'S admirably Comedy of " She Stoops to Con quer," in which a boorish servant, when told by his master that " he must not laugh," replies, " Then your Worship must not tell the story of grouse in the gun room, for I'm sure to laugh at that"—to which the mas ter rejoins, " Well, grouse in the gun-room is a very good story, and you may laugh at that —." The cre ditor was laughed out of his money—the Court was laughed out of its gravity—and EARLE was laughed out of custody. For my own part, Sir, lam old-fashioned enough to think that the ends of justice would be more satisfactorily obtained, by a dry matter-of-fact investiga tion of the circumstances under which the parties appear before any tribunal; than by such ludicrous inquiries, which, " though they make the unthinking laugh, can not but make the judicious grieve." If, as Dr. JOHNSON observes, " the terror of death should be reserved as the last resort of authority," so should the mention of, or even a remote allusion to, the last terrible denunciation of the offended law, be reserved for extreme cases, and then made with the most impressive solemnity. That this is not the feeling of all Magistrates, however, we are bound to infer from the report of a case at Bow-street, which occurred on the same day as that in the Insolvent Debtors Court; when it appears that two men were brought before Sir R. BIRIUE and MT. HALLS, charged with having been concerned in picking pockets. "On their persons were found some gentlemen's pocket handkerchiefs, which they said they had purchased for wearing round their necks on Sundays." And on hear ing this explanation, Mr. HALLS is reported to have " observed, .that if they did not mind, they would ere long have something else round their necks." The se vere rebuke of justice would, in such a case, have been wisely and most commendably addressed to the prisoners, upon whom the Magistrates were there sitting as Judges, and wises as Judges they sentenced to two months' impilimilient in dill House of Correction ; but with all possible deference to Ma. HALLS, I persuade myself that a Magistrate who is so ably qualified to dis charge his important functions, will, on a little reflection, regret that he should have suffered so undignified an ex pression to have escaped him ; an expression which was not only unsuited to the Judge, but unworthy of the man. In conclusion, I have only to assure you, Sir, that I am influenced by a sincere and earnest desire to uphold the respect due to the constituted authorities ; and to pre serve the administration of justice from the dangerous consequence that must follow, if once the awful solemnity of investigations which may place the liberties and lives of men in danger, lose its hold upon the public mind, or the dignity of the Bench be trifled away, till, in the esti mation of the vulgar, " the strong statutes Stand like the forfeits in a bother's shop, As much in mock as mark."

You are aware that the inhabitants of Galway took advantage of the opportuuity afforded them by the recent visit of Lord F. L. Gower, in the ancient capital of Con naught, to call a public meeting for the purpose of ad dressing the right. hon. secretary on his arrival amongst them. This was the first occasion of the description since the passing of the relief bill; and as you may be desirous to learn the tone of the addresses, and the tem per of his lordship's reply, I send you the two docu ments, which have not as yet, I believe, been published in the newspapers. ADDRESS. " lo ens atoms ■ow. e•e was •sands treason taowas, •• by Loan,—The inhabitants of Galway beg leave to offer to your lordship their congratulations upon your arrival in this part of Ireland. " We have balled with particular pleasure the visit to our loyal and ancient town of a nobleman who bolds so high an office under Hls Majesty's government, and wbo is not more elevated by birth and station than by a steady discharge of his duties in the spirit of equal and impartial justice. •' It is highly gratifying to us to have an opportunity of ex pressing to your lordship the MOM we entertain of the good effected for the State, by the great measure of the last session of Parliament. •• Here Protestants and Roman Catholics emulate each other in promoting, not preventing, tho success of a policy so liberal and wise, and in proportion as they do so, religious peace and general tranquillity are the happy mutts. " Your Lordship has viewed our port s and witnessed the ad vantages which nature has conferred upon our town and i.eigh bouthood ; and we are confident that those measures of local im provement which are necessary for extruding and securing the commerce, and with the general prosperity and revenue of so important a portion of the united kingdom, will receive from your Lordship countenance and support. •• With these pleasing anticipations we offer to your Lordship the sincere expression of our beet wishes, and of our hopes. th.t your connexibn with Ireland may not cease until ahe is all that 114- Sure has qualified her to be—happy and finurishiog within her-elf, and a perennial source of wealth and strength to the Empire. (Signed) "J. 11. BURKE, Mayo:. " Galway, Sept. 23." ANSWER, Headford. Sept. ;It r Grintestes--I received the Address which you have dune ow the honour to present to me, with feelings of pride and sa tisfaction. I consider myself fortunate to have been enabled, in the course of my present excursion, to make the visit to your city which has procured me so flittering an expression of your regard, and I beg you to accept the assurance of my gratitude for the honour which you have conferred upon me. " As one officially connected with the administration of the affairsof this country, I feel deeply the importance of an expression of confidence in the motives of his Majesty's present Government and approbation of its measures, peeding from so numerous and respectable a body of the inhabita roc nt. of Galway. Every member of that Administration will, I am sure. appreciate with me the circumstances which constitute that importance. They are not merely to be found in the rapid increase of your commercial in tercourse the extension of your building., or in the capabilities for improvement which the local situation of your city presents to the rye even of an unpractised observer. There are circum stances which add weight even to such considerations, as there is rot expression of opinion, whether in praise or censure, can be un derrated or neglected, when it emanates front those who have proved by their example that the freedom of political and litigious opinion. anti the aspiration for the full enjoyment of civil rights, are compatible with unshaken loyalty to the Crown, and with unim paired union and good-will among themselves. " I trust that the Administration to which I have the honour to be attached will continue, by its measure.. to merit and obtain such testimonies of confidence and regard as that which it has on this occasion received. " It will be a personal gratification to myself, if, in the course of my of labours, I should be enabled to contribute to the success of any measure for the advantage of your city, in the further increase of its growing prosperity. I should derive front such an occupation the additional interest which must be fek by a witness of its present flourishing condition, and the promise of its I tt dvanci. (Signed) " F. LEVESON GOWER." The noble Secretary is expected to arrive in town to-day from his visit to the " Irish Highlands," us Cun nemara is sometimes called. During his tour to this remote and almost unknown district, which he com menced after his departure from Galway, he and his amiable consort spent a day at Headford, the beautiful seat of Mr. Mansergh St. George, by whom they were conducted to Cong and across the lake; after which they were hospitably entertained on the successive even , ings at Clifden Castle and Ballinahinch Castle, the man sions of Mr. John D'Arcy and Mr. Thomas Martin, son of the ex-member for Galway. Their last visit was to Castle Magarrett, the seat of Mr. Dominick Browne. A good deal of importance is attached to the Noble Secre tary's visit to this hitherto neglected portion of Ireland. He is, I believe, the first Irish Secretary who has been in that remote district, of which less is known by persona resident in the metropolis than of the prairies of North America or the bush of New South Wales. It has been supposed that Quakers are now liable to serve On Juries. It is not so.
