The LORD CHANCELLOR admitted that individuals were committed for contempt in consequence of the non-payment of costs. But he had introduced a clause in the Insolvent Debtor? Act, which gave to such individuals the same mode of relieving themselves from a commitment of the Court of Chancery as front those of Courts of Law, by taking the benefit of the Insolvent Debtors' Act. If any further improvements were pointed out, no one would be found more anxious than himself to adopt them.— Adjourned till Friday. Counsel were called in upon the Appeal of the" Berl of Stair e.

HAPPINESS 4I the gay to-morrow of the mind" is insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual Friend ship." is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association, , with celestial intelliience." Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the varier nature from those impurities which the free dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless instances which, while they excite the commiser..tion of the be. holder, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach. Luxurious habits will effeminim the body—a residence in the trite& will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na tural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonised sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief.

Pike Mi. • . never taken place, there would be no difficulty in the present case. Here it was necessary to observe, while :hewing that the former ease could - not govern the present, that it was then stated that there existed; corrupt and simoniacal agreement , by Which the in.: cumbent had undertaken to resign his Hying, at the mere request of the patron; but how stood the present cAse ? Fletcher .bad. entered Into a bond with Lord Sondes, the Noble defendant in error, to resign the Rectory of Kettering, when one of his nearest relations (sons or brothers) should be able to take Priest's Orders. He was confident that the Right Rev. Prelates, who dect3ed the question with respect to the Bishop of London and Fitch, as to general bonds, never could have contemplated a special case, as the report seas in existence to prove; for in every one meson there given by the Bishops, the words "general bond" were stated by them. In proof of this, he could refer to the opinions of the Bi shop of Salisbury, the Bishops of Bangor and Glouces. ter, and even of Lord Thurlow, who deprecated she practice of giving general bonds, but only such bonds. He was prepared to admit that such general bonds were contrary to the statute law, and created a corrupt be nefit in the disposal of livings ; but be would ark their Lordships, did this corruption atoll apply to the present case, whet* the object of the special bond was stated o* the very Lice of it, which object was no other than to for the Noble defendant's relative. whom he could provide for in no other way? Was such a bend to be construed as - evidence of a corrupt intentiot ? He thought not; and he was certain that the question would not be answered in the affirmative by any sound lawyer in Westminster-hall. Under such circumstances as these, he felt no difficulty in stating, that the judg ment which bad been given in the Court below was, in the present case, perfectly correct. It was also a great mistake to suppose that them were no authorities in support of this doctrine, for Lord Tburlow had ad verted to many of them, but always excepting general bonds, while admitting the validity of special bonds, whose resignation and presentation were provided for at the same time. "Goo forbid." said Mr. Justice Best," that your Lordships should not consent to be generally_bound in giving jour judgment by the legal decisions of-West minster-hall; for that would give credence to the vul gar error that there existed no law except in the Statute Book." He would contend, that as there had been an uniformity of decisions on the subject of special bonds, 'from the time of James I. to the present day, it was desirable, not to say necessary, that their Lordships should gore effect to the decisions of Westminster Hall. Special bonds, in such cases as the present, were not within the meaning of the statute. This case turned on the sth section of the Act, by which corrupt causes of presentation were the only ones liable to penalty ; and Af the present bond were not held valid, the decisiun would go to condemn Lord Sondes as a simonaie, in contradition to all decisions in other Courts. I3enefit had nothing to do with the present case, where one re lative-was to be provided for .by another. If Lord Sondes did not intend to obtain a sum of money, but really to provide for a very near relation, then, as the intent made the criminality of an action, there was no Criminality in the present case. Simony was the act of • receiving money in contravention of the statute. The consideration of benefit on either side affected, if poshed to its extreme, all exchanges of livings, though sanctioned by the statute book ; for if such exchanges were made with advantage to either side, and they generally went upon that principle,then exchanges' ought also oho void; and yet, be woad ask, who ever thought of treating web exchanges as transactions not valid by law ? Be sides this, the Court of Chancery epos quite com f asoot to frustrate, by its injuntions, aU improper preamatatieos
