LEIGH HUNT'S PROSE WRITINGS, " THE INDICATOR" AND " THE COMPANION."—This collection of t h e P rose E ssays o f Mr. Leigh Hunt, will doubtless be universally received with much satisfaction. There can b e b ut one opinion enterta i ne d o f their merit and interest. A contemporary justly observes, that " there is not any s i milar series of compos iti o ns which, whether in ease and elegance of style, or in their combined character of essay, amusing and instructive, approach so near the spirit of the Spectators and Tatlers ' as these; and, like th e i r p ro t otypes , they can be read and re-read, with ever fresh pleasure."

TYNTE, AT CHARD (From the Sherborne Journal of Thursday.) The public dinner which had been advertised in our two preceding papers, to be given to Mr. C. J. Tynte, by his constituents, in the town and neighbourhood of Chard, took place on Tuesday last, at the George Inn, when about 120 gentlemen sat down, amongst whom were nearly half the burgesses, who are stanch Reformers. The dinner was intended to compliment Mr. Tynte for his exertions in gaining a repeal of the personal estate tax. The Hon. Member was in excellent health. The chair was very ably filled by the Rev. Mr. Gunn, supported on his right by Mr. Tynte, and on his left by Mr. Lenedon. of Chard. Amongst the company were Mr. Ball, of Taunton; J. Cridland, Esq., Captain Nair, Mr. Cross. of Bloomfield, Mr. James, of Glastonbury, Mr. Pike, of Bridgwater, &c., &e., & c . After the removal of the cloth, the chairman proposed It The King, and may he never forget the principles which placed him on the British throne," which lie in troduced with appropriate observations. The next toast was—" The people, the only legitimate source of all political power." AIN CROSS, in reply, addressed the company, and said the subject was of such importance that he feared he was not able to do it anything like justice. The people of England were not, as they had been many years past. (Edw. III.) in a state of barbarity which required power ful restraints of law ; but as a people emerged from thi state, and advanced in civilization. Laws and govern ments were less necessary in that despotic farm which was anciently exercised. As society progressed in intel ligence, the curbs and checks of tyranny required to be relaxed, and governments to be adapted, in their spirit and power, to the moral and elevated character of the people. It had been the case with rulers to abuse their power by acts of oppressive domination, and to make all the elements of social happiness subservient to the eel fish purposes of their ambition, to the slavery and de gradation of the people, and to pervert useful institutions into ends for self-aggrandisement; hut, happily, we are now arrived at a period when Governments are corn pelled to feel whence their power emanated—that they possessed it not for the few, but for the benefit of the many. Although, he was sorry to say, that such was the contracted views of some of the nobles in this , country, who, although they were educated where the ancient lore of the Greek and Roman sages—men inspire , ' with a love of liberty and country—was daily read, they caught not the spirit, nor acted the noble principles which they had inculcated. Mr. Cross made some happy allit %ions, in conclusion, to the difference between the French Revolution and the bloodless achievement which Enelan had carried in her Reform Bill. The Hon. Gentleman sat down amidst much applause. " The Queen and Royal Family."—" The Army and Navy." Captain Nara rose and said he returned his best thanks in the name of the Army. The life of a soldier was a glorious one, when fighting the battles of his country against foreign foes ; but when he was called upon to re press local disturbances at hoMe, his situation was truly difficult and obnoxious, for he had feelings like other men, and was connected by the same sensitive ties of kindred and friendship. He could not sit down without congra tulating them on the occasion of that day, and of the pa triotism and intelligence which actuated them in selecting a gentleman as their Representative of his friend's talents and integrity, who had justified their choice in the praise worthy and honourable course he had steered, and given such satisfaction to his constituents.—(Cheers.) The PRESIDENT next gave—" Earl Grey and his Ma jesty's Ministers." He had been told the subject suggested by the toast was rather of a difficult character, but lie thought it rather more delicate than difficult; yet, as he was a plain speaking man, and had no idea of mental re serves, or double meanings, he would just tell them what he thought of those Ministers.—(Cheers.) In the first place, had it not been for them, we should not have had the hap piness of meeting here to-day ; nor would they have had the opportunity of electing such a Representative as our honourable friend present.—(Cheers.) The difficulties the Ministers had to contend with would not have been so ably met by any other set of men. Earl Grey bad done, while in office, what no other Statesman ever did before him, both in the magnitude and extent of his measures. When he first came into power, the country was in a deplorable state, under the effects of a corrupt and profligate administration, which for years had weak ened its energies, and drained its resources. For seventy yea's had the owls, the bats, and vipers of office, carried on a system of pernicious and destructive operation, and it was necessary to have a new broom to sweep away the foul nestlings which they had created. The old castle had become dilapidated and disfigured, and required much skill to remove it, and restore it to its pristine solidity. —(Cheers.) If Lord Grey and his colleagues were to retire to-morrow—if there were no other act to be men tioned, for which he had distinguished himself and Mi nistry—that of passing the Reform Bill would hand his name down to posterity as a beneficial and important achievement. But not only had he to remind them of what they had done, but to call their attention to what they (the Ministry) had yet in store to be done. They were a reforming set of gentlemen.—(A laugh.) They bad yet many measures on their table headed Reform," such as the municipal carporations and the church ; and supposing the) should carry them, shall we not praise them and say, they are honest men after all? For himself, he never looked on this important measure but as a means to an end, and while we bad that means, if properly used, no doubt the country will rise to a greater degree of honour, dignity, intelligence, and happiness than it ever has yet.—(Great cheering.) In next proposing the health of Mr. C. K. Tynte, Member for West Somerset, Mr. Gunn entered into particulars relating to the personal estate tax, which he said Mr. Tynte bad been principally the means of getting removed, by which the town had greatly benefited. With respect to the general parliamentary conduct of Mr. Tynte, he also expressed himself with his usual flow of eloquence, and extolled him as one who indefatigably attended to the dis charge of his duties, and the honest, independent, and con scientious, disposal of his votes on all occasions requiring his presence and a'tentien.—(Cheers.) Mr. Tarsmt—Gentlemen, I feel almost overpowered by the flattering reception with which you have welcomed me here this day, and by the enthusiastic manner in which my health has been drunk. The Rev. Chairman has alluded to the difficulty of my canvass, and the strong opposition that was offered to my return. Gentlemen, one of the first towns which I was invite i to canvass was Chard— (Cheers)—and, to the latest hour of my life, I shall never forget that splendid festival on which the inhabitants of Chard celebrated the passing of the Reform Bill.— (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I have witnessed many festivals in various countries, in celebration of dear-won victories, but never did I witness a more interesting or patriotic jubilee than on the day to which I allude. I anticipated that the blaze of patriotism was spread through the western division of Soinere•etshire, and I then felt that the ex ample of Chard would be followed by the return of men to Parliament who would strive to fulfil the inventions of the Reform Bill.—(Cheers.) In respect to the personal estate tax, the town of Chard was early in its application for the repeal of this tax. A gentle man, who I regret 1 do not see here, Mr Howse, wrote to me upon this subj ct, very soon after 'he meeting of Parliament. I confess to you, I did feel great pleasure in being the humble instrument by which the repeal of that unjust and unequal tax was repealed.—(Cheers.) And mark me, gentlernen,l do not stand here claiming the whole merit of the repeal of that tax, because I would never condescend to add one leaf to my wreath, from the garland of another. I am proud to own the assistance of my Hon. Colleague and Mr. Labouch , re; but as I moved for the returns, and I had several interviews on the subject with my Right Hon. friend Mr. S. Ries., at the Treasury, and eventually pressed the repeal of the tax upon Lord Al. thorp, in my place in the House of Commons, I feel that I am not presuming too touch in receiving the chief merit for the repeal of this tax.—(Cheers.) My Hon. and Rev. friend has eulogized his Majes•y's Ministers, and I quite concur with him that more has been done by the present Ministry in one session, than by any former Ministry in years--(Cheers).—but yet, allowing them great praise, I must also give them some blame, for not having been less conciliatory with the party who formerly held poo-er, and for not having (hacked as they would have been by tile people of England) assumed a bolder attitude, and a more energetic tone.—(Loud cheers.) It was painful to me to oppose Ministers upon several occasions ; hut, respecting them as I did, my constituents occupied the first place in my affections—(Loud and continued cheering)—and when I voted against Ministers on the repeal of time Malt and Window Taxes, and the shortening the duration of Parliaments, I voted as .1 con scientiously believed the majority of my constituents de sired.--(Loud and long cheers.) I voted also for the ballot, because, having sat upon an election committee, I felt the doubts I held quite overcome in examination of that evidence.—(Loud cheers.) I also disapproved of the vote of 20 millions in the manner it was voted to corn • pensate the West India Planters—(Cheers) —not that I considered no compensation necessary, but I disliked the loan of 15 millions being metamorphosed into the gift ot 20 millions.—(Loud cheers.) But, gentlemen, emanci pation of the negroes is, on any terms, eo grand, se glo rictus a measure, that I rejoice at our now being able to say that not only " Britons never will be slaves," but that no British subject shall be longer a slave.—(Cheers.) Another great measure which I consider the present Government deset yes the thanks of the country for, is the treat Act destroying the monopoly in commerce of the Indian world.—(Cheers.) But we have now to look for ward to another session pregnant with great measures. The Corporations, (those last strong holds of corruption, is they are called,) are to come on trial before the Com mons of England. Those mighty questions, Church Reform—(Cheers) —and adjustment of Tit h es—(Loud cheers)—are to be brought forward by the Government ind I sincerely trust that they may he dealt with fairly Ind satisfactorily to the nation at large.—(Cheers.) I em much connected with church property ; but whilst I see 44 abuses, the more anxious am I to witness their reform. Gentlemen, I sincerely believe that, since the (dose of the session, his Majesty's Ministers have disco vered the temper and the feelings of the country, and, from the reports of various commissions, which I give them great credit for appointing, I trust they will march with the people, and, supported by them, bow insigni scant will be all opposition.—(Cheers.) The Chairman has kindly slluded to my constant and close attendance in Parliament. Gentlemen. when I was sent by an over athelming majority of West Somerset elector s, to represent .hem in the reformed House of Commons, it was not to do as some Hon. Members formerly did, who, perhaps, had a constituency of a mud Wall, or a green mourn'. No ! I had no time to lounge in the Parks or streets of London ; but, representing a constituency of many thou .ands, I well knew the imm-nse responsibility of the trust placed in my hands, and dev-ted my time, and every enerey of my mind, to your business.—(Cheers.) Gt.n tlemen, again let me thank you most cordially for the honour you have imposed upon me this day; a reward gratifying, indeed, to a Representative; who, sent free ind unfettered to the British senate, has humbly, but honestly, endeavoured to do his duty ; and, regardless of uarty, to steer the course of a conscientious and inde pendent Representative of the people.—(Loud and long ttheering.) Mr. Tynte concluded by proposing " The prosperity of the Town of Chard." Mr. Gott; returned thanks on behalf of the inhabi tants of Chird, and spoke of the improved and rising ..minence of the town, and afterwards proposed " E. A. Sanford, Esq. M. P. for West Somerset," and made some excellent remarks in defence of that gentleman's conduct iu Parliament, whose votes he said, though not at all times in unison with tho-e of his colleague, were, no 10E04, given from motives which the critical nature of the circumstances of last session justified. Mr. S. had , t.ered his cnurse during several Paliaments as a firm and zealous reformer, and had lent his utmost exertions to forward the Reform Bill. He was sorry that some had judged rashly, and conclutled harshly respecting his con duct ; but the best men were liable to misrepresentatione, and the most honourable acts and intentions subj ct to misconstruction and erroneous interpretations.—(Cheers.) He believed Mr. S. had not changed bis political views ind character, however some might insinuate to the contrary. _ . Mr. TYNTE, in returning thanks on behalf of his col league, spoke in warm terms of Mr. Sanford's anxiety to serve his constituents, although he (Mr. T.) had heard him spoken of as to constant a supporter of Ministers. He called to the recolleetion of the meeting Mr. Sanford's independent votes against Ministers, on Mr. Tennyson's motion for shortening the duration of Parliaments, the grant of 10,0001. to the Irish clergy, and other occasions. —(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. T.) valued Mr. Sanford sincerely as a private and intimate fiend, and as his colleague he could state, that he was always most ready to promote the interests of the county.—(Hear, hear.) " The healths of the gentlemen present from other towns."—Mr. CROSS briefly replied, after whom Mr. CRInLAND expressed himself highly pleased at the powerful feeling shown on the present occasion in favour if his Hon. Friend Mr. Tynte. He was one who called himself, without vanity, an independent freeholder; and none was more happy than himself to witness so respect able and intelligent a body of the same class there ass in bled.—(Cheers.) His situation in life often called him amongst the yeomanry of the county; he knew the general feeling of that respectable class to be in behalf of Mr. Tynte.—(Cheers.) Mr. BALL replied at great length to the last toast, with great power of oratory and force of language, of which hut an outline can be given. He congratulated the people of Chard in having taken the lead in returning Mr. Tynte, by means of their zealous exertions, and in thus testifying their approbation of his conduct—(Cheers)—and hoped in this respect Taunton would not follow far behind ; for he was a member not only deserving the thanks of the county, but of the whole people of England. The present was a very important occasion, because it showed what course of public conduct Mr. Tynte's constituents wished him to pursue; for although they might be attached to the present Ministry, they were not such ministerialiats as to cease to be zealous reformers. —(Cheers.) For him self he belonged to no party but the people of England; fur " Party was the madness of many for the gain of the few." What good had parties done this country? What did the Padres or Foxites, or other parties, distin. guished by good names, do for the country. while con tending nightly in the arena of the House of Commons? Did they not sacrifice the good of the people to the re. nown of their useless coraentions, and the display of their oratorical collisions ? For himself he placed no confidence in a Whig or a Tory Ministry as such ; nor would he, on that account, submit to be called radical in the sense generally attached to the appellation. The term was meant by many to stigmatise the advocates of Reform as destructive; but he would advise tbem to reject it as applied to them, and claim to be called Reformers— (Cbeers)—for that was the name they held once, and why should they not retain it?—(Cheers.) As using the Reform Bill for the grand ends and purposes for which it was intended, they were still entitled to the dignified epithet, and still called on to exemplify its significance by the strength of their moral energies, and the zeal of their patriotism, in aiming at further enterprises in the way of reform. Was it a time for supineness and inactivity, when two-thirds of the community were compelled to support a church establishment, from which they conscientiously dissented ? S h ould he he told that they ought to be thankful for the immunities and toleration they en joyed ? Toleration, indeed ! Would any man dare to breathe in his face that foul and intolerable word ? (Cheers.) What, one worm telling another that he tolerates him to do what his conscience dictates to be right ? An no man can act by proxy in the affairs of his salvation, shall any Lord or B shop arrogate the preroga. tives of the Deity, and tell others they have a right to dictate what they must believe?—(Cheers.) He wondered they had not the audacity to pass Acts of Parliament which should forbid tie Deity from hearing the prayers of all but their own church. Speaking of tithes, Mr. B. said it was a matter which interested not only the agri culturist, but the manufacturer and commercialist, and aff'cred all other classes of society, more or less. To remove the corn laws without altering those which related to tithes, would be injustice, and the latter would press so heavily as to place the nation under great disadvantage from foreign c impetition. With regard to the right of legislative interference on tithe , , as the Government had, at diff rent times, repeatedly interfered, and repeatedly altered the laws affecting them, no reason could he offered why they should not do it again.—(Cheers.) This subject Mr. B. billowed up with much Allay anal sound argu ment, which time and space will nor allow us to give. Mr. B. concluded by expressing a warm eulogy on the conduct of Mr. Tynte, and confidently hoped he would, by one united di .rt of the electors, be returned to another Parlia ment wittieut expense.—(Great cheering.) Mr. JAMES, of Glastonbury, followed. Although he had clime which required his attention at home, i.e felt the call to meet his friends on that occasion to be inn perative ; and that, in coming the distance lie had for that purpose, he had performed his duty, and felt highly gratified at the proceedings of tne day --(Cheers.) H. had, some time ago, gone to the House of Commons, where he saw Mr. Tynte ~nd another gentleman in an anti-room, who, pointing to him, sail, " there is you, Merwier ; and, although I Am no prophet, I will ven•uie to say that, should his lae be prolonged, he will for many years retain his seat ; for I never knew .1 more zealous, active, or indefatigable representative, and I have no domh he will some day be a great Statesmata."—(Cheers.) 0 the last election be was one of the retained agents of Mr. ( T m y n ti t ) et e , p w ar h t e n of hi e s o c p t p m ,, t n e e s n t t w s ;as. and u b e n fa w it i r m a i n d d p ie d d i g sc e r i e:litablt under the feeling recom ended by Mr. B.l', that on the next occasion for a contest, he would be the grituitou agent of that gentlemen.—(Great cheering.) Mr. Jam.. concluded by complimentine. the President on his maid, conduct in time cau-e of reform in the town of Chart notwithstanding the abuses and aspersions of his enemies Mr. FLIGHT. of Bridport, also briefly replied, and gay. the health of Sir Henry Parnell. Mr. TYNTE proposed the health of the Rev. President, who briefly replied. Mr. CROSS then rose to propose a zealous friend and stanch supporter of Mr. Tynte, and one who had r veived his full share of slander for the honest part that t. had taken, he meant Mr. East.—This toast was received with deafening applause. Mr. EAST rose to reply—He had never appeared before ssq his friends with greater pleasure and latisfacthinihan be did on the present occasion.i,Tha-y shoUld PC). by which i.e would he tried as to his exertions in of reform ; he considered that he bad merely dorte.-sibit was the duty of eve!), honest min, that of. acting siplo and :upporting his principles ; le bad certainly acteitzayith ,ut caring one jot for the 'tiictions .of. thip-9nrrir that man, or without any regard 'to whit.ra* tby clia-ged against him to-day or to-morrow; -a, folluued that feeling which dictated to him that his heart was right in the cause. Mr. East then gave some account of the kind reception which he had experienced in town from the Hon. Member, and the very high eulogiums which he had beard passed on his Parliamentary character. In reverting to the disturbances which had taken place in Chard, Mr. East very powerfully vindicated him self from the many calumnies which had been cast upon him.—(Elear, heir, hear.) He was gratified, indeed, upon the present occasion to wi.ness, in spite of the efforts which had been made to disappoint the present meeting, that so many of the most infl.iential and intelligent inhabitants of Chard and its neighbourhood would attend. Here they were as re formers, met for the purpose of discussing their opinions, in the presence of their representative, in order that he might ascertain their real sentiments. Mr. East next ent red into a discussion on the subject of tithes. He would he glad to know if Henry the Eighth aced with the rights of a monarch, when he sequestered them ? If so, they may again be subject to the same control by William the Fourth ; lint if they had been int. rfered with wrongfully, then the present posst ssors could nor, in justice, lay claim to them. He considered that the Go. vernment t had h eoth n e o r not done so day, ay, Lord much a Jahn Russell Ru s ss i t ought. ell ha A ds, id t thatPly mouth,he supposed Lord Althorp would sake the ass mil taxes into consideration. Tnis, he maintained, wis net enou:.ll— it was grievous to find the inequalities in taxation. Claret and Champagne were taxed 15 per cent., whilst brandy bore a duty of 500 per cent. Was this right no.) After addressing them at consi derable length, he stated that he hoped Mr. Tyne won't' carry back to the Parliament the feelings and sentiments of his constituents, on the subjects which had been dis cussed to-night. Mr. TYNTE proposed the " Liberty of the Press." Mr. PENNY—i wish I could bring my mind to be ' lieve, that the same unanimous feeling which prevails in this company towards the welfare of the press, was equally cherished by our fellow-countrymen : for be as sured. Sir, that amidst the manifold institutions of rem country, there is none so nearly Allied to true Itberty, there is none so sensitively controlled by the dictates of truth and morality, as the press.—(Clieere.) It is a mockery to associate the press with any restrictions ; and those who would attach the spirit of liberty on one side, arid the weieht of licentiousness on the other, argue, I am inclined to think, more after the dictates of fashion than the honest feelings of friendship.—(Applause•.) It has been grievous, Sir, of late, to witness the crusade which has been made against the Press ; it argues hut feebly for the intelligence of the age, to find the law of libel scarcely yet defined in the comprehensive language of common sense, and the penalties weigh ought to visit the outrage of justice enforced moat oppressively upon the dictates of truth; but, Sir, we must hope for better times; we must await patiently the development of those principles which will, I trust, establish a barrier between truth anti licen tiousness—a citizenship between all lovers of their country, and an honest pride of national celebrity, fir superior to the petty intrigues and party feuds of the day. From the li berty of the press, Sir, must ever spring the roots of a free constitution ; without it, the tree of real liberty would never blossom, nor the bud of national independence ever bloom ; upon its protection, indeed, depends the just privileges of the Crown, and the extensive right of the people; whenever, therefore, this foundation of our bul , walks shall he undermined, public liberty will at once decay, and the safety of our social system will perish amidst the excesses of a convulsed society. But, Sir, the freedom of the press cannot be secured, nor its licentious ness restrained, by fist:4 burdens; it must be left free to receive the stamp of public confidence or opprobrium ; and then upon its own honesty, independence, and talent, it will depend frit. support. As an individual connected with the press, I crave not the mantle of tax °ion. I would seek a better shield to pro•ect my future labours I would follow the dictates of an independent mind, and if my judgment should fail, I should at least h ives some hope from the indulgence of an intelligent and forgiving public; but if my sheet-anchor was the monopoly which taxation throws around me, I should be building my hopes upon a false foundation, and raising a superstructure which can never stand egainst the searching test of time. My Hon. Friend, the en lightened Member whom we have the pleasure of meeting to-day, can partake, perhaps, of the feelings by which I on animated, for he has gone into public life, bearing with him the suffrages of a free constituency; he has carried to the Senate of his country the tiiumph of public principle„ and has thrown into the scale of justice the moral %%eight of his native county—the protestations of his libe►al c in stituency—in order to preserve our Constitution, but that, Sir, is a fact to which future history must do justice, for we live in times not sufficiently calm to contemplate tbe independence of those who struggled to preserve liberty in Ireland, in order to secure freedom at home.—(Hear.) But another session of this memorable Parliament is fast approaching. I would not prompt our Membera to their duty, because I trust they need it not; but, Sir, I may be allowed to hope that, when our social hours are past, when time shall have obliterated even the marks of our feeble efforts in the cause of liberty. ) , England will stand erect amongst younger nations,, wit!: the freedom of her institutions shining in golden letters on her bright records, and proving, by her station and example, the blessings which are derived from' the freedom of debate, the freedom of the press, and the un qualified observance of civil and religious liberty. In conclusion, Sir, I would congratulate Somersetshire upon her representatives in Parliament. They have fulfilled the expectations that I hail formed of thsm ; end they will, I trust, continue to display that moral courage, and that right good English feeling, which has gain'd for our common country the envy of the world. But, to return to the toast now before us ; believe me, Sir, I shall drink it with pleasure and sincerity; and well am I aware that if ever the freedom of the press shall be overcome, " We inay hang our harps upon the willows, for the song of gladness will no longer be heard in our land." Mr. GuNte gave " Lord Brougham, and Civil and Re ligious Liberty." Mr. CROSS gave the healths of the " Taunton and Bridgwater R• formers." Mr. J. PYKE returned thanks for himself and his brother townsmen, and said he was proud to acknowledge the compliment, because they had been amongst the first to set the example of reform in what was once one of the roost cot rupt boroughs in the county. It was a source f the must unfeigned satisfaction to reflect, that through •Imes of difficulty and danger, surrounded by the most vto'ent party spirit and Toryism, they had persevered to the glorious end accomplished by E .1.1 Grey and his cao, eagoes. Their success had convinced him of otlct great fact—that reform must always emanate from t'ne people, and that, to accomplish those objects which reform in the representation of the country had given them a I ight to expect, they must be united. I eantit' a , Sir, said Mr. Pyke, recur to the subject of wlt;.ch I h ave been speaking, without recollecting, with sentiments of esteem and respect, the honoured fstb , , o f the gentleman whom we have now the pleasure to see amongst us, and through whose aid we were e na bl e d to e ff ect t h e great object of our wishes. I hope, Sir, I shall be permitted to propose the health of Col. Tynte, so of en returned as the Member for Bridgwater by the unbought voices of his constituentti.—.(Loud cheering.) Mr. PENNy said there was one toast which appeared to have escaped the Chairman, and before his honourable lend quitted, he would beg permission to propose it ; he felt perfectly aware that it would be cordially received by Tynte as an Englishman, Mr. Gunn as a ScAc'ottan, .nd it would also have been by Captain Alsir as an Irish. man, bad he remained a little longer, he meant that branch of society which was welcomed in all corners of he world, and without its presence to cheer out quiet hours, our pilgrimage through life ivould be .me a long lull night, without even a dream to stir the fancy, or a feeliog that could agitate the m i n d_rr Th e Lad i es of Coard."
