LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY ExtrGcts from the Nur-lung Papers, July '26,1825 [MORNING POST.] The Lord Chancellor yesterday took consi derable trouble to read over all the affidavits and documents in the question relating to Lord Strathmore. Ws Lordship appeared most anxious to avoid the least complaint of delay, and ex pressed u hope that no mischances (unnecessary delay) might occur, as the proceedings of the Court of Chancery are now watched with in •cressed anxiety. In all our Courts of Law too rzieny facilities are afforded to those who wish 'to obstruct the course of justice ; too many op portunities exist, by which a dishonest suitor may protract the settlement of any cause in which he may be engaged : they exist in a greater degree In the Equity tha❑ in the Com fit/CD Law Courts, but the Judge has no controul over them ; they - must be remedied by an Act of the Legislature, and in all probability, the Report of the Commission at present em ployed in inquiring into the abuses of that Court, will be the means of having them removed. Those numberlh•ss delays are cuused by the Counsel, - who; since the establishment of the Vice-Chan cellor's Court, being frequently engaged both in cases which are called o❑ in that Court, and in others that are for a hearing before the Lord Chancellor at the same time, are obliged to leave one of them unattended to, which is then struck out of the paper, and has to be entered afresh. Some time ago a number of the leading Chancery Solicitors entered into an agreement riot to ems ploy any Counsel except such as would confine themselves to one Cout t : we are afraid, however, they have been thwarte:t by a power to which -they were obliged to bow, for we do not it rid that the regulation—judicious and praise worthy as it was—has been acted upon. The evii we have here noticed has frequently been reprobated hy his Lordship in very in dignant terms. The only topic on which, it appears to us, that there is even the atightest cause to impute—certainly not blame even then, but only delay—to the Lord Chancel lor is, the time which he frequently takes to con side► a cause in all its bearings, before he will pronounce a final judgment. But is not this in finitely more satisfactory to suitors, than to have a judgment given quickly and given at the same time unadvisedly ? There may be Judges who make up their minds before they hear a case, and who on that account never hesitate : this is not the case with Lord Eldon, who unites with the most extensive and profound knowledge pa tience and gravity of hearing. He considers it no grace to a Judge first to find that which he might have heard in due time from the Bar, or to shew quickness of conceit in cutting off evi dence or counsel too short. No man can ac cuse him of meeting the cause half way, or giv ing occasion to the party to say his counsel or proofs were not heard. And when heard, no mein can say that they are not duly considered, and properly estimated. What has been the conse quence ? Why, that out of the immense number of judgmerts given by the Lord Chancellor, none have been impeached. Is it not a disgrace, then, to the age, and to the profession, that such a man should be constantly attacked with a degree of rencourous malignity, which ought not even to he shewn towards a notorious delinquent Surely a Sense of shame will in future restrain these at tacks; arid we hope we shall not be called upon again to reprobate and denounce them. [NEW TIMES.] Much anxiety is felt in the City, as to the en forcement of the quarantine regulations. The ob. jecforGovernrnent is manifestly to steer a middle coorse between loading commerce with unneces sary restrictions, and leaving the health of the country et the mercy of mere theorists. In dividual interests, on both sides, are of course opposed to this wise and cautious policy ; but' those who administer public affair,: will be on their guard against partial state ments ; and if they have extended indulgence where it could he done with safety, they will take care that the precedent be no: abused, to corer cases of actual infection. At the same time, we do not think there is any ground to apprehend that Government mean to tread back their steps and recur to all the strictness of the 04d Quarantine Law. Before the recent Bill was brought in, its bearings on our commerce were well calculated ; and, unless experience should altogether falsify those calculations, (of which there appears hitherto no probability) we may well believe that the spirit of the statute will long predominate in this branch of our legislation, from Sweden, and by two 46-gun frigates. The first object of this squadron is, to cut off the com munication between Cuba and St. Juan d'Ulloa, and by so doing, to compel it to surrender for want of provisions. Its ulterior object is, how ever, we understand, of still greater import ance.—(/bid.) [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] By an arrival from Jamaica we have received a most interesting document—the copy of Presi dent Bolivar's Mssage to the Peruvian Congress at the opening of that Assembly. That it is worthy of the occasion, as well as of its au thor, we think it superfluous to inform those who have studied his character ; but we would recommend it to the earnest perusal of such persons as may have been misled by fraudu lent insinuations, so far as to entertain doubts of his political disinterestedness. If there be any who have fallen into this error, let them read this important Paper, and they will be undeceived. After a rapid and glowing sketch of the difficulties and misfortunes which befel the Peruvians in their first attempts to establish their independence, he congratulates them on the progress they have made, since the battle of Ayacucho, in the construction of their social edifice ou the basis of independence and liberty. Every thing had previously fallen into the utmost anarchy ; the resources of the State were entirely dissipated, and the fortunes of individuals left at the mercy of the different adventurers who had in succession usurped the management of their concerns. To this state of confusion and inse curity has succeeded a Government of Law, with Functionaries carefully selected from the worthiest men of the nation. As this most import ant task—that Of selecting, in the first instance, competent persons, devolved on Bolivar himself, there is every reason to suppose that it has been discharged with the impartiality and discrimina tion that so eminently belong to his character. Thus a misfortune will be avoided, which at the • very onset had polluted the life's blood, and poisoned the existence of other free States—that of choosing improper, though specious, persons, to take the early management of their affairs. The President,as being a stranger to the country, com plains, it is true, of the difficulty he has had in mak ing a proper choice ; but this complaint should be received with due allowance for the modesty of the man, which, in the event, will no doubt prove to have been wholly unnecessary. In another place he alludes to the necessity of re-establishing the finances, which, under so well-constituted a Go vernment as has been formed by his care, and in a country possessing such natural sources of wealth, will neither be a difficult nor a tedious undertaking. He concludes nith expressing his determination, as soon as Callao has been re. duced, and Upper Peru pacified, of returning to Colombia, " to give an account of his proceed. 'ngs to the Representatives of the Colombian People: [IITUTISIT PRESS.! We have great satisfaction in announcing the important ititttligencP of 'the raising of the siege of Missolonghi.

J The recent appointment of Norris to be Chairman of the Manchester Quarter Sessions appears to have given great dissatisfaction in the quarter of the country over which his authority is to be exercised. We should be unjust to the Learned Gentleman if we boasted of knowing much about his reputation for integrity or talent but he has been the choice of the . local magistrate* in opposition to Sergeant Cross, a lawyer of more undoubted eminence ; arid is said to have been elected as much from the desire that he should have the benefit of a larger salary, which, under a new Act of Par liament, fhe bench of Manchester Justices may extend at their own discretion, as from any view of conferring on the public the advantage of those superior professional qualifications which it must have been the intention of Parliament to obtain by an augmented income. A judge chosen by election—by local election mere especially— we think would in most cases prove an unfortu nate choice. A bench of county justices, we should suppose, may be looked upon as nearly the worst of all elective bodies : the man who humours their prejudices—who feels as they do, and reasons as they are used to do—will be more popular among such men than an abler individual, whose range of intelligence is beyond their ken. Justice Midas preferred Pan's piping to the strains of Apollo, and would unquestion ably have raised the uncouth performer with cloven feet to the Bench in preference. It seems to us that the Crown ought, in all cases, to appoint the Judges, high and low. If patronage be exclaimed against, the answer is, that a stipendiary Chair man may be said to hold his office quarndiu se beize gesserit, as well as any Judge at Westmin ster ; and that if we trust the King, under the advice of responsible Ministers, with the appoint ment of a Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, at a salary of 10,0001. per annum, there seems little. reasou for distruAting the judgment of his Majesty's advisers where the salary does not ex ceed a fifth, at most, of that sum, Sergeant Cross, it is asserted, will appeal to Lord Bexley, Chan cellor of the Duchy, against the Manchester Bench of Justices. reiterday in an official quarter, and we hope by the q'eXt arrival to lay before the public a de- [monNtria IiERALD.] tailed statement o f th e circumstances by which The anxiety expressed and felt by all ranks of this gratifying event has been produced.

Governments at home, and its respect at Foreign Court•, almost entirely to Mr. Canning. The life of such a man does therefore become, in a more than ordinary degree, important to the community ; and the press but echoes, as it ought to do, the genuine feelings of the country, when it announces with anxious solicitude every thing which concerns an indivi dual so highly valued and distinguished. When we say this, however, we do not mean to speak of Mr. Canning as a statesman► without fault or blemish. On the contrary, there are parts of his past public life, which, we will venture to say, he himself cannot look back upon without regret. But his past errors are lost sight of in the splen dour of his present career ; and there never was an instance to which the übi plura nitent, &c. of Horace was more justly applicable. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY 25. THOMAS V. MONTGOMERY.-QUEENSBERRY CASE. Some conversation took place respecting this case. Some money was desired to be obtained out of Court, the only diffi culty opposed to which was by a process which in Scotch law was termed arrestment, whereby the money was prevented from being paid to the parties whom the Court considered to be en titled to receive it. The LORD CHANCELLOR wished to know the nature of an arrestment ? None of the bar seemed competent to furnish this informs tion. [MORNING CIIRONICLE.I W e have, from the first, expressed our per suasion that the Act to prevent Cruelty to Ani mals, would he rendered an instrument of frivo lous and vexatious prosecutions ; and the expe rience of every day serves to confirm us in this opinion. With such bungling Legislators and bright Magistrates as we are blessed with, it was easy to foresee that a law intended to punish an offence so vague and difficult of strict proof, would be a measure of at least very doubtful policy.— Where does necessary correction end and cruelty begin, is the nice question ; and this query is determined by the feelings of the spectator, which may be brutally dull or morbidly acute. Ac cording to all the rules of justice, we ought to have a clear view of the crime before we pro ceed to punish ; but this is seldom or never ob tained in these cases. The complainant thinks that there has been cruelty, and this opinion, which may be worth nothing or something as the party happens to be a reasonable creature or not, stands in the place of definition and proof.— Let us imagine for a moment the infinite number of silly things that persons with the very best intentions will think in the course of a day, and then conceive the danger of placing men's liberties and property at the mercy of these un accountable thoughts. One man will think him , self a tea-pot, another a sugar-basin, a third will think the Lord Chancellor efficient, a fourth that Sir Richard Birrtie smote him on the head at midnight with a silver mace, others, and men of worship, will think shaving on Sunday, either as shaver or shavee, a damnable sla— in short, there would be no end to summoning up the strange things that men will think, but the commonest fantasy of all is, that whole droves of them will daily be met with who actually think that they do think. From these thoughts,good Heaven deliver us, and let us be cautious how we make them legal evidence against the meanest of our fellow-creatures. Let us further reflect, that there is at this moment prowling about town, seeking whom he can fine, a worthy gentleman, who, if he were suddenly asked, " which is your right hand, and which is your left ?"—would, unquestionably answer- 44 Stay, now ; let me think ;" but whose opinion nevertheless, by virtue of an act of Parliament, is of force to amerce and imprison his poor neighbours, who have to do with cattle. BRUCE'S BIRTII.DAY.-The anniversary of the nativity of King Robert Bruce was celebrated, as usual, on Monday the 11th curt., under the walls of his ancient patrimonial castle of Lochmaben, by a numerous party of ladies and gentlemen from the town and neighbourhood. At four o'clock the company, about 60 in number, sat down to an excellent pic nic dinner, in honour of the day. The Honourable the Provost of the burgh in the chair—Lieut.-Colonel Carruthers, of Denbie, croupier. The cloth being removed, a number of appropriate toasts followed ; among others " The immortal memory of King, Robert Bruce," CC Sir William Wallace," &c. &c.„ which were drank with that deep feeling the mention of their very names must ever, produce in the bosoms of all who cherish the remembrance of the mighty dead. Nothing could exceed the beauty of the evening—one party seated at tea— another dancing below the ruins of the ancient castle—the splendour and elegance of the scene, and the recollections of the day, gave all that harmony and elevation of spirit which must ever accompany them, and it was only when the shades of night descended, that the party left the sacred ground, " where Bruce's turrets crum bling fall, the monument of ages passed a►i ay."— (Caledonian Mercury.) . Accounts from Panama state that the Blond, of 44 guns, with the suite and bodies of their late Majesties, the King and Queen of the SArrnwictz IsLarros, hid arrived at CaMo. AWFUL INSTANCE OF SUDDEN DEAIII.--YPS terday morning, as an elderly Gentleman was walking along Bow-lane, Broad-street, St. Giles's, apparently in good health, he was observed to stagger as if intoxi c ated, when he fell back wards on the pavement. He was instantly surrounded by a crowd of persons, who lifted him up, and perceived in his countenance all the agonies of death. A surgeon was sent for, while the unfortunate Gentleman was carried into a private house, where every humane assistance was afforded; but on the arrival of the surgeon, he was quite dead. On searching his pockets. some gold and silver monies were found on him, toge ther with a valuable silver watch, and sonic letters, from which it appeared he had been transacting business of a private na ture at the West End of the town. It is not positively known who or what he was. The name of " Picton, Old-street," was on one of the letters. He is of portly appearance, with pow dered hair, and of gentlemanly aspect, dressed in black. Green, the beadle, was dispatched to Mr. Stirling, the Coroner, and ordered to make every inquiry. PIGEON ANECDOTE.--A carrier pigeon being killed on its way from Scandaroon to Aleppo, the letter con veyed by it, instead of reaching the person for whom it was in tended, fell into the hands of an European merchant of a dif ferent nation. It contained information of the excessive price to which gall-nuts, the most valuable article of commerce pro cured from Aleppo, had risen in Europe. The merchant who had thus obtained the notice, immediately bought up all the gall-nuts he could find, and by this means acquired a very con siderable gain. The circumstance naturally produced a great deal of jealousy and ill-will among the Europeans, and at length, to prevent the chance of a repetition of such dishonourable con duct, it. was resolved by them, that in future no couriers of the kind should be used. Since that period, therefore, the practice has been discontinued. be .pigeons had been known to Per form the journey in two: hours and a half. The distance be. tureen the• two plaoe is between 60 and. 70 miles, in a straight line. • . . Mr. TREstovE observed, that there was this essential dif ference between the process of arrestment in Scotland. and a somewhat analogous proceeding in the Lord Mayor's Court— that in the latter the party attaching the funds was bound to proceed ; whereas, according to the Scotch law, the party suing out an arrestment was not bound to follow it up ; so that the impediment might be delayed ad infinituna. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that he must look into his Scotch law-books : in the meantime he wished the Counsel on both sides (one of whom was Mr. Murray, of the Scotch Bar) to prepare themselves with as much information as they could procure on this point. Mr. MURRAY replied, that being about to depart for Scot land in a steam-vessel in fl day or two, he feared he could not comply with his Lordship's request. The Loan CHANCELLOR would not be so unreasonable as to - expect, if that were the case, that he should read in a day or two what would require at bast four years. Subsequently it was agreed that the sums upon which no arrestment had been placed should be paid out of Court, and that the Master should consider and report upon the litigated item. BOWES v. STRATHMORE. His Lordship was occupied nearly the whole day in prepar ing for judgment in this case, by reading all the pleadings and affidavits, making occasional comments as he proceeded. Various additional affidavits and documents were called for by his Lordship, who remarked, that however the case might be dis posed of in respect to the point of property, some measures would be taken to prevent a repetition of the same irregular and improper manner of dealing with the .Court as appeared in this case. A TRUE STORY. ( Prom the Dumfries Courier.) On Wednesday last, the 12th curt., a naval officer, eke a landed proprietor, in an eastern county, left Edin burgh for Moffitt, in a phaeton drawn by a powerful horse, and with every prospect of reaching his destination in good time. The weather was beautifully calm and clear, and though rather out of th e di rec t li ne , th e gent l eman pre f erre d travelling via Selkirk, both for the sake of varying a some what monotonous route, and with the view of exploring the highly interesting pass of Aloffatdale, which winds so grace fully among long ranges of conical hills, as green even to their summits as the margin of the rivulet that dances on ward below. To those who are fond of pastoral scenery, more inviting ride is hardly to be met with. For more than ten miles the pass in question is bounded by ramparts which divide it from all the world beside, and is withal so narrow, that, excepting where the hills recede a little, as if to make way for the fine water-fall called the Grey Mare's Tail, which in winter cornea roaring and thundering down, it looks more like a communication formed by human art, as a safe retreat in the days of " weir," than an opening cleft through the bowels of hills, amidst some of the sublimer con vulsions of nature. The stream already spoken of points out the path, and tells the traveller that he can only hope for egress by following its course; on either hand are sunny slopes, un varied even by a stunted tree, and with no other shade than what is afforded by the craggs, knolls, and other irregularities of their own surfaces—with here and there a solitary shepherd pausing to gain breath on the brow of the hill, or to gaze on ' the traveller that threads his way through the vale beneath. If the stranger be curious, he will meet with more than one se questered spot, where rest the ashes of martyred covenanters, and, amidst the loneliness of nature, may cast his thoughts backward to those unhappy times when the mountain fast nesses around and before him proved a city of refuge to God's people ; when the neighbouring steep and the morass behind it, interposed as a shield betwixt the persecuted and their per secutors, anti hundreds of brave and pious men accounted them selves happy if they could moisten a crust of bread with water from the spring, raise at early more the voice of psalms, and bivouack at night with the black cock on the morn. But enough of Moffatdale, anti its pastoral scenery. The gentleman alluded to pursued his journey until he had arrived at the southern extremity of the parish of Yarrow, where the road se parates, and where he felt quite at a loss which path to pursue. After considerable hesitation he took the wrong one, and went right forward until he found, to his surprise, that the road ter minated not at an inn, as he had at first supposed, but at the truly sequestered burying-ground of Megget. And here lie was fairly put to his wit's-end : not a house was near nor a per son he could speak to; and though he lingered at the spot for some minutes, and looked round and round in every direction, he seemed to have nothing for it but to retrace his steps, when the barking of a dog announced that hie toaster was not far off. In a little time a shepherd appeared, and answered his ques tions very civilly ; but still he seemed to eye the stranger with suspicion, and more than once expressed hi s s u r p r i se , " th a t i n a place like this, wi' sae few towns .and loanings leading to them, ony body should mistak' the right toad to Moffat." The gentleman paid little attention to this remark at the time, and as lie knew he had still a long journey before him, he wakened the mettle of his horse with the whip, anti pushed on as fast as possible. Ely this time the sun was beginning to sink be hind the bill, and as his horse gradUally slackened his trot to a walk, and gave other signs of weariness, the gentle man began to wish for the shelter of a friendly roof, however humble might be its accommodations. He knew that there was no Inn on the road, and this naturally increased his anxiety; for by travelling in the dark, he might again miss his way or tumble over some of those brows of which he had seen such appalling specimens ; and under all the circumstance, he thought it better to halt until the morning sun should again lend him the light of his countenance. AA open shed stood by the way, and here he might stable and ease his horse a little by removing the har ness, while he could himself repose under the apron and top of his Phaeton, quite as soundly as in a hammock at sea. By way of experiment, he drew down the covering, and scarcely had he got this done when ten or twelve sturdy shepherds, arm ed with fowling pieces and other lethal weapons, surrounded the carriage evidently with no peaceful intent. The gentle man was, astonished, but one of them immediately took speech in hand' and thus addressed liiin—" Gentleman— for ye look like ane—ye are mair than suspecket of being a resurrection man, and we insist on your lighting and coming wi' us. We ken ye hae arms, but we have some too"—and with that a musket was fired to convince him that the ora tor spoke in sober earnest. The son of Neptune fretted not a little at this intrusion but the had seen too much of the world to be easily intimidated ; and disdaining to rebut a charge so ridiculous, he threatened to blow out the brains of the first man that dared to lay hands on him—though, to confess the truth, his arms consisted of an umbrella and gig-whip, and his ammunition in a patient undaunted spirit. But the threat had a very good effect, and the shepherds, after holding a coun sel of war, determined to secure the horse by barricading the door of its temporary stable—and while two of them stood sen tinel on the top of some tar-barrels, the rest formed a circle round the phaeton with their arms presented, and ready to fire, the moment their prisoner should attempt to escape. Though little used to be so beleagured, the traveller at last fell fast asleep, and awoke not till the welcome effulgence of a July morning was tipping first with silver and then with gold, the loftier crags of the braes of Yarrow, and anon burnishing the broad bosom of St. Loch. The shepherds, in the mean time, bed taken a peep at the vehicle, which, to say truth, is singu larly constructed, and had so far satisfied themselves that their suspicions wereunfounded—that when the gendeman awoke then looked somewhat abashed, and rather facilitated than opposed his departure. The traveller, on his part, said nothing that could undeceive his body-guard; but on arriving at Birkhill, he communicated to the landlady the advereutes of the night, who, in torn, informed him, that an honest shepherd had been interred at Megget a few days before, and " that, the inuckle fools had nae doubt teen him for ane o' thee Doctor fellows wha gang rampaging advert the hale country, and winna let the dead rest i' their graves." Finally, Mr. arrived safely at the hospitable Manse of and explained what had detained him, to the no small amusement of the Rev. Gentleman from whom we derived the above particulars. When Dr. DUSCOMBE was head master of the King's School, Canterbury, he at one time gave great offence to the scholars by enforcing some strict regulations among the Latin Students. • A day or two after, the following pun was chalked upon his front door : " The colour of a mouse—the trap for a louse— .
