It appears that, in the first 15 months of its ope ration, the new law has relieved from personal duress, no less than rota THOUSANDS debtors ; that is, 2100 in London, and 1600 in the provinces; the whole of whose debts, averaging five hundred pound, amounted to THO MILLIONS. The dividends they Lave paid have been trifling ; but neither this consi deration, nor that of the vast numbers discharged from confinement, afford any just or valid objection to the Bill. _ _ If their means had been commensurate with their debts, they would not have been objects for relief ; they were in confinement simply because they did not possess the means of paying their debts. It is therefore most absurd to object to the Bill, because the means of those who have been relieved by it, have borne any Inconsiderable proportion to the amount of their debts. Rather would it not have been as cruel as unreasonable, to have persisted in detaining persons whose means are proved to have been so inadequate, than blame the instrument hich has relieved them from the pressure of debts, whose payment could not have been accelerated by the imprisonment of the debtors, and by the hopeless sulv'ings of their families. The prodigious number reliever), or who remain to be relieved, are in like manner no evidence against the justice of the law ; but rather seem to prove at once its necessity as well as justice. The operation of twenty-two years' wars on the national industry --of taxes to support their expences—of paper money to sustain the taxes—of speculations and ex periments in every branch of industry, to obtain a liting in such times—of monopolies of land, which have di iven the starving population into towns—and of depreciated currency, affecting all annuitants and small incomes, has created a load of private and domestic suffering, which it would have been faithless not to have relieved, by abating the severity of the laws bet ween debtor and creditor. This mass of in. solvents arising from the foibles of the State, merited the attention of those for whose errors they have innocently or wilfully suffered ; though it must be confessed, that under other circumstances it would have been more just to have given such a law a pro. spective operation, and not to have slept so abruptly between the contracts of debtor and creditor. It, howler, behoves those creditors who tom plain of the early effects of the new law, to state whether they believe that in any instance their condition would have been improved if it had continued in their power indefinitely to detain their debtor in prison. Unless they con make this appear, the retrospective operation of the Bill is no valid objection to it ; and it may be suspected, that the indulgence of an implacable spirit against a helpless debtor, is their true ground, rather than tiny calculation of legitimate advantage to their own estate. It is notorious that, under the system of itidetilte imprisonment, not one creditor in twenty ever obtained a farthing of an imprisoned debtor ; while he was often fixed with heavy and ruinous coats, and on the wretched debtor and his family a load of useless misery was heaped, which generally terminated his life, attended by circum. stances that often defied all the powers of the tragic use ! Are we then to yield to the wishes of harpies of the law and mistaken creditors, and revive a sys tem so pregnant with horrors, so indiscriminate is its severity, and so inefficient in its operation ? Are we to outrage every feeling of humanity, and aban don every cheek en the indulgence of bad passions, that cruelty may stand in place of prudence and dis. cretion among tradesmen ? Is law to be the snare in which the unwary or incautious are to be can ht by the speculating and grasping trader, who gives loose and unguarded credit, trusting that he may exact, by the torture of imprisoument, from tender hearted parents, kind relatives, or sympathising friends ? Is it not more reasonable that trade should be carried on at the proper risk of the trader ; and that it should be his duty scrupulously to ascertain what, as well as whom, he trusts, or cheerfully sub mit to the pitialty of his credulity, and be satisfied with payment in the property of his creditor, as far as it goes, and not expect, in part of liquidation, the blood, hones, and marrow of the victims of his credulity or avarice ? It is impertinent in the opposers of this law to speak of the relief which they say it affords to swin dlers. No swindler is or can be enlarged by it. All fraudulent transactions are excluded from relief by an express clause. Swindlers continue also as much as ever ohnotous to the criminal law, and the civil law as it stood, effected as little relief in the tecovery of property from swindlers, as is pretended in regard to this new Bill. Nor does it appear past expe rience that swindlers, or any class of swindling cre ditors, enjoy an immunity from this Bill. Among the 2400 liberated in London, a large majority were on. fortunate and unhappy persons, who but for this statute would have been borne down to their grans by the oppression of debt swhich they could never pay, or they must havesuffered imprisonments without any prospect of relief. Old and young, industrious and idle, wise and foolish, male and female, virtuous and vicious, have all stood at, the bar of the court created by this statute; and, after surmounting the opposition and cross examinations of their creditors, have happily been liberated.—l say happily liberated, even though some score of them might have merited perpetual imprisonment; for was it not better that the whole should be liberated, however culpable some might have been, than that many hundreds of unfortunates should have been downed to inter minable miseries? Are we on this subject to reverse all the axioms, even of criminal jurispridetice; and are we to punish ninety.niue who are innocent lest one guilty should escape? In a word, then, I conjure the humane and intelli gent part of my countrymen to make themselves ac (painted with the spirit and the provisions of this fits' before they suffer themselves to be milled by false statements amid interested reasoni ng s. They will then, I persuade myself, hail it as a signal triumph of res in and benevolence over the prejudice of oostom, and .he tyranny of avarice. Among our laWs on the sub ject of property, they will find it a ray of sunshine breaking foto a cavern of darkness. To the weak and helpless, they will discover that it servos as a guardian kV% rttit sTATEsmAiki: against thi caprice of the strong and Wealthy, and place those under the protection of dispassionate authority who, without tech aid; were liable to be come the victims of hatred, tereegtit, and inSatialde avarice. And, on whichever side they tie* it, they will find that its tendency is to brtiak the galling chains of hopeless and pennyless prisortell,.serving to restore thousands to the bosoms of their afflicted families, affording them an opportunity of paying their creditors, giving than a chance of retries/Jog the errors of inexperience or credulity, and enabling them to become useful and respectable members of society. Ought more—need more—be urged in favour of any human law ? Considered merely as an alter native in a choke of difficulties—its only errors are those of charity and beneficence. But, estimated as one of those contrivances of wisdom, by which man endeavours to confer perfection on his establish ments, its faults, though magnified by the prejudices of inordinate self-love, can never be made more evi, dent or conspicuous, than the spots iu the ALL GLORIOUS SUN.

Lord Elleoboroogh held his first Sittings after Term this day, at Westminster Hall. QUINN V. REYNoLvs. This was an actinn, by which the Plaintiff, who was stated to be an eminent and ingenious mathema tical instrument and hydrometer-maker, sought to recover from the Defendant, who had been educated to the profession of surgery, and was a gentleman equally distinguished for fortune and fashion, the sum of 5001. contained in a check granted by him to the Plaintiff, on the hOuse of Ransom, Morlaod, and Co. bankers, so long back as the month of Fe bruary, 1812; also for the sum of 401. being the price ais instrument made by the Plaintiff, from a pattern furnished to him by'the Defendant, and deli vered to Mm; and also for various advances in money made by the Plaintiff, to, or on account of the De fendant, between the months of February and June, 181'2, at which time the Defendant found it conve nient, on account of temporary pecuniary embar rassments, to make a voyage to the East Indies, in the capacity of surgeon of-the John Palmer East Indianian, commanded by Capt. Reed, on whom the Defendant had large claims. The John Palmer East Indiana's, it appeared, was, in the coarse of the voyage home, lost at sea, and the Captain and every person on board perished. Fortunately for the De fendant, however, it would seem that the Captain and be had a quarrel, in regard to Ills itate of their money transactions, which terminated in the • De fendant's recovering from Capt. Reed as much money as he could procure from him, to The amount of many thousand pounds, and quitting the John Palmer in India. Having taken his voyage home in another ship, the Defendant arrived safely in England, but hating disputed his debt to the Plaintiff, the present action was brought to recover the amount. From the testimony of the Plaintiff's brother, it appeared that the Plaintiff and Defendant were parti cularly intimate; that they were both occasionally embarrassed, and occasionelly flush of money ; that some part of the Plaintiff's funds, by which he was enabled to assist a friend, arose from his having been successful at play ' • that the amount of th e c h ec k on Remote end Co.'s house was composed of a number of h 0. U. tickets, which the Plantiff had formerly led of the Dtifetsdant's, Arc. sr the part of the Defendant it was shown, that month of June 1813, the Pleintifr had been ted to the custody of the Marshal of the{ g Bench prison for debt; that in-the mouth of verisber 1813, he applied to be liberated frdm that custody*der the Lords'Act, having in his Schedule stated Mama to have tin property whatever, and having, though he *as not liberated In consequence, istactioned that , shatemeht by his oath.

COURT OF COMMON PLE44, Fee. 14. HUDSON V. SANT. The Plaintiff, a farmer at Hampstead, sought to recover a compensation in damages for the loss o f a servant's services, and an injury sustained by havi ng his cart overturned. It appeared that bit s on , a young man, who acted as his servant, was diving . 'the cart with his mother in April last. At some dis. tante from Hampstead they met a coal- waggon h e . longing to the Defendant, which, by the un,kilful management of the driver, came in contact with the cart, and dashed it to pieces. The unfortunate wif e of the Plaiutiff was thrown out and killed on the spot. The young man was also disabled, during considerable time, from following his occupation._ Application was afterwards made to the Defendant for a compensation, and as the offer did not agree with the Plaintiff's sense of the injury, the present action was brought. _ _ There was no defence, and the Jury Coned a rer. dict for the Plaintiff—damages 501. ARCHES COURT, DOCTOR'S COMMONS, F1:11 14. GENRES AGAINST VICKERY, FALSELY CALLING nut. SELF DENNES. This was a cause of nullity of marriage, brought by Henry Defines, the husband (acting by his Guardian), against Catharine Vickery, his wife, falsely called Denn's, by reasc-n of miuority. It appeared that the marriage took place between the parties by licence, on the 21st of July, 1810, is the parish church of it. Martin, Ludgate, which mar riage ceremony was not performed by the Vicar or Curate of the parish, but by a Clergyman resident in the country. It further appeared, that Me. 'thorns, Rennes, the father of the minor, died in the year 1803, appointing by his Will his widow and three other persons executors and guardians of his ail. dren, and that the parties resided at Blenheim, in the county of Bedford. _ _ The evidence produced in the cause west to prove that the mother of the minor highly disapproved of the marriage before the solemnization thereof, and that it was had without her consent or the consent of the rest of the guardians. The evidence also went to prove the identity, minority, and all the necessary facts in a cause of this description. The Court (Sir JOHN NICHOLL), after recapitn. flitting the same, was of opinion that the facts were clearly proved, and therefore pronounced the mar. riage to be null and void. PO L k E.
