TO THE HONOURABLE MEMBERS OF THE LAW SOCIETY. , to tie otet GExTLEKEN,- - -Wh e n an individual assumes hie pen to.descant on a subject of public concern, it behoies him, at least; to be acquainted with the merits and bearings of the question. The topic upon which I am about to enter is certainly one of very great import to the Legal. Profession and the Publie. The Insolvent Act, which was passed experi mentally for five years, has now undergone nearly the full period of its operation ; and I am- con vinced,..from multiplied experience, that in its ad ministration it .has become productive of many serious evils. I will not offer offence to the deliberate wis dom of Parliament, by impugning. altogether the principle of the measure ; but in declaring that 'ts operation has been injurious t.o the Public, I feel it a duty to point out some causes which have rendered it so. Much has of late been said in this Paper on the subject of the measure, and the mode of giving it effect. The Correspondents SCRUTATOR, the OLD BARRISTER, W. M. and others, have enlarged very fully upon the abuses arising out of Agency, carried on by persons out of the profes sion of the Law. To such as have read those Letters, I have little to offer in addition ; to those By Order, CHARLES SMART, Sec.

Surgeons, of Charlotte- House, Great Charlotte -street, Blackfriars-road, have, in consequence of their extensive practice, and for the accommodation of patients at the %Vest-end of the town, established a Medical Board in Woodstock-street, Oxford -street, a few doors from Bond -street, where a Physician of 40 years' experience, and a Surgeon of great emi nence, reside, and where all the Board alternately attend, the whole of whom are Members of the Royal Colleges—that thousands have been restor ed to perfect health by their united talents is uni versally acknowledged, many of whom had been discharged from Hospitals, and otherwise impro perly treated.—They are consulted at NVoods ork - H ouse, Woodstock -street, from Light in the morning until Eight at night ; and at the Medical Board, Charlotte-House, Blackfriars-road, from Twelve till Eight in the evening. --Mechanics have advice gratis every evening from Six till Eight, at both houses, and on Sunday inorningi until Twelve o'clock.—N. Alessrs: Coortga and Co. Ireg to observe they have no connection with any other concern, therefore allieuvrs are to be directed to Charlotte-house, adjcin;ng Blackfriars-road. Community. If the Society should be disposed to direct its attention towards ascertaining the evils which arise out of such illegitimate and corrupt agency, they will be found innumerable, and will induce a conclusion that some measure should be instantly adopted for putting an end to them. It has become a generally received opinion with Debtors in confinement, that Agents of the In solvent Court are the only persons to be referred to in all legal matters to which Debtors are par ties ;. and it daily occurs that Debtors, who have employed professional men previous to commit ment, discard them as soon as' they are in con finement, and resort to the Agents of the Insol vent Court upon all subjects of legal concern. The Agents readily promote the views of the Debtors, and, in most instances, shew a total dis- regard to the interests of Creditors. Independent of this connexion with the gaols, the Agents are in the continual practice of pur suing other branches of the Legal Department— they. issue process, enter appearances, procure kited bail, and justify—instruct Counsel on mo tions—fill up law proceedings, and prepare briefs in, the ordinary way, that Attornies are only of right entitled to do. Impressed with a conviction, that if one-tenth of the evils I am individually acquainted with were known to the Society, the Members of it would be zealous to use the means of suppression or prevention, I earnestly hope and implore that the honourable body to whom this is addressed, will, for the purposes of truth and justice, institute an enquiry into the existence of grievances so in tolerable. And if I should discover, through the rnedintu of Tile SUN, a pledge or assurance that such inquiry will be instituted, I shall hope, at no dis tant day, to have the opportunity of congratulat- ing the Public on the removal of those gr;ev' anetc, which cannot be better accomplished than will' the exertions of the Society. The Correspondent IV. M. has notified his in- tendon to lay before the Public a summary of the Act of Parliament, with remaiks on its principle and operation ; I take leave, therefore, also to in vite his attention to the great abuses in practice arising out of the conduct of Agents, and if nu merous evils have resulted from the operation of the Act, they will in some instances be found to emanate from the interested advice, or want of legal skill, on the part of the Agent. 1 cannot avoid observing, that in throwing out censure upon the conduct which has brouglit the Act into great disrepute, no blame is by me at tributed to the Commissioner, whose duty calla upon him to discharge the Debtor upon petition, schedule, and oath ; and although the Agents may be admitted to fill up schedules, I conceive they should not, under that shelter, be allowed to inter. meddle with legal matters of any kind in this Court, or any o►her. -With an earnest wish, therefore, that the So• ciety will .promote a strict inquiry into i!ie prac tice and abuses adverted to, I anticipate the fa vour of a notification to that effect ; and with the greatest respect for the Law Society, and the Collective. Body of the Profession, I am, &c. &c. tke. VERITAS. A NEW YEAR'S GIFT, THE opening of a New Year naturally e x cite s sentiments of profound gratitude from ,Messrs.
