COURT OP KTNar'S BENCH, OUT. I& TIE COEPORATION or LONDON v. BLYTH TIIF: YOUNGER. This way a writ of inquiry to assess damages on the bond given by the defendant, an oil-broker, to the Corporation of the city, in the penalty of 1,01)01„ conditioned in the customary form, that he would not be guilty of fraud, or conceal the name of his principals, or traffic in oil for his own benefit. On these stipulations, breaches were assigned, and on these, judgment having been suffer e d b y d efault, the jury were now to estimate the amount of d a m ages . Mr. SOLICITOR-GANZEL (with whom were the • RE connua, the Coustox-SEttoRANT, and Mr. HOLLAND) detailed the case to the Jury.. The Lord Mayor and Corpo ratio" of London, he admitted, had sustained no damage by the miscond uc t o f w hi c h Mr. Blyth had been guilty, but they were trustees fur the public, and felt it their imperious duty to bring the present action, in .order to protect the commercial . interests of which they were the guardians. By the wise re gulations of the city, every Ilhoirallowed to act as broker was compelled to enter into a bond that he would always, when re quired, disclose the name of his - principal, and that lie would not trade on his own account ; and these conditions the defendant had unquestionably broken. fie entered into a contract with a gentleman named Flockton to sell him a quantity of oil, who finding the oil did not correspond with the sample, demanded of Mr. Blyth the name of the vender, which he peremptorily re fused to give. When Mr. Myth was compelled to exhibit his books, he showed the name of " Mrs. Jane Mattison, Appleby, iVestmorland," as the party for Whom he acted, but that lady would be called, who would distinctly prove that she had n o concern whatever with th e o ffi cer; and, indeed, no doubt would be left on the minds of any one that the oil was the defend ant's own property, and that he bad made use of his situation to commit a fraud on Mr. Flocliton. • lie afterwards arrested Mr. Elocton for the price of the oil; that gentleman applied to Messrs. Sweet and Stokes for their advice, who told hi m that Ulu: could prove his stat ement , he might successfully defend the action, but judiciously neoinntended hint rather to pay the money, titan to run the h azar d o f a su i t. He after _ wards petition e d. the Court of Aldermen, when Mr. Myth thought proper to aggravate his cffenee by a most absurd and abusive paper, which would be read in evidence. . Mr. ScauLt7.l"r suggeased that it was unfair to aggravate the case by alluding to this paper, which formed no part of it. The Lord CutEr-JusTwit replied, that the facts as stated neadedrio aggravation. The SoLia-ITOU-GENEWAL then shortly recapitulated the chief points of the charge, and call e d u p on t h e Jury to give such damages as would prevent the wholesome regulations of the city front degenerating into idle forms. The bond was then put in, and the condition read. Mr. Flockton proved that the defendant, on `Change, on the Bth of last November, proposed to sell to him some superior oil, at 231. per tor., and on the Monday following came on horse. hack to his house, and without leaving liis horse, chewed him two samples, which appeared the finest oil he ever saw. Mr. Flock_ ton agreed to take ten tuns the next morning, and on the fol lowing day signed a contract for the oil, which the defendant stated had coma by the ships Lugitania and Surrey, The next day he sent hi s nep h ew to i nspect the bulk, and in consequence of his report, went with Hr. Daniel Hawkins to the defendant on 'Change, and demanded the name of his principal. This Air. Illyth, with ten oath, refused to give. Ile was afterwards arrested by Illyth, and by the advice otAiessrs. Sweet, Stokes, and Carr, paid the money rather than submit to an action. The wetness was cross-examined at considerable R length by Mr. SCALETT but no material circumstancs Will elicited. He stated that lir. Myth was a man of 27 or 211 years of age, and admitted that tho arrest had made :him angry. In the course of the cross-examin a ti on , Mr. & Mott applied the wo r d s "T do not believe it" to an answer of thee witness. The LOUD Ciimr JUSTICZ Olkierlw*.thatettrh • ftll. rrtirrn .

It had been chilled by the weather. Mr. Daniel Hawkins stated, that he was present when Mr. Flockton demanded and Mr. Blyth refused the name of the principal. lie afterwards proposed a compromise to 111 th, without Flockton's authority, but Blyth insisted on proceeding with the action. ' Mr. William Jones, of Upper Thames-street, proved that in September last year, oil imported by the Surrey and Lou.i tania was , deposited at Mangle's Wharf. It was of inferior quality, being of bad colour; and at first none was bought, but afterwards a quantity was disposed of through the agency of Mr. Blyth. The witness's firm bought six lots, and Myth botight the inferior part of the purchase, amounting to IS tons, and afterwards 5 tons at 1131. He refused to give the name of his principal, except as to one lot, all icb he paid for, and cleared in the name of rlotekton. Mr. James Kidd, wharfinger, transferred the oils to Mr. Flockton's name by Mr. Blyth's directions. Mr. Woodthorpe stated, that when Mr. Blyth was ordered to produce his book before the Court of Aldermen, he shared the name of "Mrs. Jane Mattison," and said she was a lady residing at Dowgate, in Appleby. Mr. Newman, the Solicitor for the City, was also present,, and corroborated the statement of the last witness. Mrs. Jane Mattison, an elderly lady, who lives at Appleby, but not in Dowgate, stated that she bad lined in Lord Thariet's family; she knew nothing of Mr. Blyth, or of the oil, and never heard the name of the Lusitania or the Surrey. Mr. John Ewin stated that he had made inquiry at Appleby, and could find no other Mrs. Alattison than the lady who had been produced in Court. The Deputy Filacer produced Mr. Blyth's affidavit of debt, on which Mr. Floekton was arrested. The paper alluded to by the SOLTCtIQR.O743ZRAL was then read. It was written in a very florid style, full of boast ing of the writer's merits, and of invective against Mr. Fleck ton. It excited considerable laughter in the Court. Mr. SCARLITT, for the defendant, entreated the Jury to cut out of their consideration the very absurd and censur. able paper which they had heard; which had been written unadvisedly, and formed no part of the merits of the cause. Ills client had undoubtedly violated the condition of hitt bond, is ?easing to discitise the. name of his principal t but no tread was proved against him. If Mr. Flockton had sustained any damage by the contract, he who was evi dently not disposed to soften the case, would scarcely have suppressed the circumstance, nor would his attornies have al. lowed him to remain contented with hie loss. It might be wrong for a broker to agree with a principal to do business for him on the terms that his name should be concealed ; but if that agreement was once made, it was more honourable to fulfil th an to b rea k i t . if an y person was aggrieved it was Mr, FiGektOn; the Lord Mayor anti Aldermen had sustained no injury; and the Jury would hesitate before they filled the Coffers of the city by the defendant's ruin. He was a young man who had acted Imprudently anti irregularly, but not frau. dulently, and towards whom he trusted they would deal out justice in mercy. The Loup (ABET JVIIIICR said the - Corporation had, in hip judgment, acted most properly in suing, not only the prin. cipal, but the suret i es , b eca use they would thus inf use a Wu. titorns theirfu y eariedtlt . it a wise regulation that n o brokershe minds of those who might be temptedto ab a n. t should make contracts fur his own benefit, and also that he should be obliged to dieclose the name of the party for whomhe acted, and th ese co nditions the defendants L a d c l ear l y broken. Thi s p r o cee ding moo tae considered rath er i n t h e light of a pumehment than a - corapensetion ; and the Jury would say to what extent they thought th 4 defendant ought to suffer as an example to others, The Jury, after a blunt deliboatione assessed the (Images at 55101.

Sint— .Iu • pureeing the object of thefts NUM, agreeably to the method proposed in my last, 1 am now to prow: that it is vain and hopeless ever to expect intelligences virtue, or happiness from the Old System of society, however various the modifications which it has assumed in differentages and countries ; and, In the next place, to demonstrate that the system of which the principles have been developed in the pre ceding letter, is alone capable of conferring upon the human race real and permanent happiness. A system by which this result is to be obtained and secured, must comprehend an arrangement of circumstances, that shall cultivate to the utterninst the physical and mental powers of each individual, and direct their application in the most bene ficial manner for himself and for society ; that shall enable the aggregate of the species to create, by means the most advan tageous to all, the greatest amount of the most valuable pro. ducts; that shall effect the preservation and dietribuilon of' these productions to the greatest benefit of every portion of the human race ; and lastly, that shall draw forth the kindest and most benevolent feelings of our nature, and ensure to every one the best habits and conduct through life. Has any one of the endless ramifications of that system, under which men have hitherto been compelled to act, produced in fact all or any of these resalts ? We need only appeal to the history of the past ages of the world for distinct and unequivocal evi dence, that under each and all of these forms of society, error, sin, and misery, h ave un if orm l y b een generated and per petuated. And the evidence of our tenses informs us, that error, sin, and misery, are the results of each and all of Olean even at this hour. The great mass of mankind acknowledge this truth._.,Fnr, if we ask of the inhabitants of Christendom, whether the remainder of the world is not now overwhelmed with error, sin, and misery, they would readily answer, " YOU ; no rational being can doubt it." If the same queetion be pat to the inhabitants of those countries in which the doctrines of 14lahomet are tauelit th e answer will be the same. Or, if we put the question to those extensive tribes who have derived their peculiar tenets from the Shaeter—the reply will be Similar. Were we afterwards to pass to the extremities of Asia ; and address the same inquiry to the countless millions who have been made to receive the supposed wise sayings of Fe and Con fucius, the answer would still be to the same import. And were the question put to the Hebrew nation, who are now scattered over the face of the earth, their reply would he :—" Yes ; is all these countries error, sin and misery, su perabound." And each would answer correctly. But while men shall be taught, es they have hitherto been, in all parts of the world, they will remain unable to give any rational opinion re specting themselves; and it would therefore be useless to ask it. The truth is then : that of all the various modifications of the old system, of which we know any thing, not one has ever succeeded, or does at present succeed, in making men either wise, or virtuous, or happy. It may be said that, although this fact cannot be denied, yet some of them will, at some future time, obtain and secure, for its followers, the long wished for results. To those, however, who have reflected o n thi s i mportant silt:Jea n —it must be onvioes that Knelt a cnnsummation is impossible, until a principle of union, competent to pro. duce peace and good-will among all, be discovered and acted upon. Does the old system of Society contain any such principle P Hitherto human nature has known but one system, in what ever variety of forms it may have exhibited itself. All its in stitutions have the same origin and basis. They are founded on notions derived from the early ages of inexperience, when man, in the infancy of his creation, had no means of estimating either their truth or their effects. Tliey all presuppose " that man forms himself to be what he is ; that he can of himself I modify, and even change his nature, and that, if he does not make himself to be according to some particular model, exist. ing In the minds of some particular individuals, belongiag to some particular district, he is to be Warn .11 and punished, both here end hereafter; while those who are enabled, by the in. thence of certain motives, acting upon their peculiar individual constitutions, to conform to such a model, however imperfect it may be, are to be held exclusively deserving of praise and reward, both here and hereafter." Now, to imagine that any system, which teaches man to find fault and to be angry with, to blame anti to punish his neigh bour, and which thus creates anti sanctions competition and op epaorstiitii,oni,sctaon i s , v e er n e ( a n ta le b s l s ish vi t s l i i o e n r a e r ig y t t i i t: a f n pea to c e e x a p r e l t go th o ut a t -w w i e ll s u h i a l , some time or other, gather grapes from thorns, anti figs troll). thistles. Yet the univeral prevalence of peace and good will must as cetearily precede any general union among mankind. Aid it is by union alone that society can form any effective arrange- ments, to draw forth all the valuable powers of each individual, or to obtain the productions of the earth, and of manufactures, with the least human labour, and the fewest sacrifice of health and comfort, or to preserve and distribute these productions by means the most beneficial for the individual and for society. Nor without union will it be possible to cultivate in each individual the kindest anti most benevolent feelings of his nature, and to give him the best conduct through life. Conduct is the re su lt o f feeling. and opinions. If, there. fore, the feelings and opinions which a system inculcates are irrational and inconsistent, then will irratmeality and incon sistency characterize the conduct of those who ars subjected to its iniluence. Now the old system of society is both irrational and incon eiatent. . For, let me ask, can a system be rational or consis tent, or can it produce intelligence, virtue, and happiness, which impresses on the young titan the belief that he is created by a superior power, and that he cannot do any thing of himself; and yet that if he does not do is great many things of himself, he does wrong, and is to be blamed anti punished here, anti rendered miserable by this fear that lie is to be eternally punished hereafter ? Can a system be rational, which impresses on the infant mind, the notion that a Being, infinitely good, wise, and power. ful, and who has created whatever exists, has created twinge who can think and act contrary to his will and wishes ? Can a system be rational, that impresses on the infant mind, which by its nature can be made to receive almost any impres sion, the notion that the same all-wise, powerful anti good Being, who knew all things from the beginning, should create a single existence that weld, by possibility, be miserable throu g h all eternity ? . Car, a system be rational, which, in like manner, forces on the young mind the notion that a Ming with such attributes should, knowing what he was about to do, give existence to another being, endowed with faculties and energies fitted to counteract his benevolent intentions, and thus Create an Eternal Power for the production of sin, crime, and misery P Car, a system be rational, which inculcates the notion that huninn beings, in every part of the world, are Made to be what they are, physically, mentally, and morally, by some cause, indepentleat of that which created their original nature, and de. termines the particular circumstances in which they shall sub sequently be placed ? be which impresses on the infant mind wt thich it i a t r e m systemet: evidently rational,s E tf t f e r n n a a t l u 7 :3 w w l o d f c k b : t e n r e n v al e r .Power,cliang change, ought to be resisted and opposed by human laws ? Can * system be rational,- which makes it sin to act ace cording to the laws of nature and of tion, and virtue to act etecording to human laws, in opposition to the eternal laws of nature ? Can a system he rational, which continually preaches peace, end continually practises war ? Can a system be rational, of which the professed object is to create union; and to cherish the kindest dispositions of our nature, while, in practice it Wads to universal ths. union, and stirs up the w o rs t feelings among the whole hu. man race io Such, however, is the system, which has clone governed the world through all the past ages of human existence, as far as the history of man has been tranianitted to us—a system which has thus been proved to be irrational in prin. ciple, to be injurious in practice, and to be incapable, if it were continued to all eternity, of producing any other results, From tho LONDON GA Z TE, Oct. 25.
