He then called on the Attorney-General to hand up to their Lord ships a note which the Attorney-General had sent over to him. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that if the Learned Counsel had any motion to make on the subject he had better state it upon affidavit. Mr. Frrzalßsort (vehemently)—Never. And if the Attorney-General does not hand up the note to. the Court I will state the substance of it. Mr. FITz- GIBBON then stated that the Attorney-General had sent him a note, calling on him to retract certain expres sions which he was represented to have used in the course of his address, and which the Attorney- General considered as personally reflecting on himself, and calling on him, if he did not retract them, to name a friend. This statement caused the most marked sensation, surprise being the most prominent feature of it, throughout the Court. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that Mr. PITZ- GIBBON had stated in his address to the Court, that he was influenced by private motives in the conduct of the present prosecution—that he was guided in the conduct of it by his feelings as to what effect success or failure might, have upon his political ad vancement, • and if he withdrew the reflection thus cast upon his conduct, he would be satisfied. Mr. FITZGIBBON said the Attorney-General came with pistol in hand, and he could not help telling him that he would not thus draw an apology from him. Mr. MoouE suggested that as all must regret that such an occurrence had taken place, an opportunity should be given to both parties to become reconciled with each other by a mutual explanation. The CHIEF JUSTICE thanked Mr. MOORE for his suggestion, and stated that the Court felt itself in a very embarrassing situation; and that the Attorney- General was the last man that ought to have allowed himself to be betrayed into any such expression as that now declared to the Court. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that now he would not impose any condition respecting the withdrawal of the expressions which had hurt him. Mr. FITZGIBBON declared that he had never meant to impute anything like improper motives to the At- orney-General in the conduct of the trials, bu that he felt he did not exceed his duty in canvassing his conduct as a public man. After some further observations from the mutual friends of both learned gentlemen, Mr. FITZGIBBON resumed his address to the Court, which rose at a quarter to five. There is one circumstance that rendered the send ing the challenge at such a time and in such a manner especially blameable. The lady of Mr. FITZGIBBON and her child were sitting at the table nearly by the side of Mr. FITZGIBBON." In earnestly invoking the public, at large, to give :heir most careful and attentive perusal to the " Ad dress of the Society for the Emancipation of In dustry" (which will be found in another column), we claim for that remarkable document no higher a de gree of consideration-than it is amply entitled to by its subject matter and the intrinsic importance of its con tents. From the greatness, the simplicity, the benefi cence, the national character of its objects, it is a paper with more powerful pretensions to the active sympathies of every class of British subjects—ranging, in the scale of society, above that enormous working com munity, on whose behalf its eloquent appeal is more especially asserted—than almost any we remember to have met with in our whole experience as journalists. We will briefly state what those pretensions are. The objects of the Asso ciation are not private or corporate, but strictly public. The attainment of those objects is not merely a question of expediency, but of vital neces sity to the welfare of the State. This vital necessity consists in the visible, incontrovertible, appalling fact, that a wasting disease, which has been gene rated in the entire system of British greatness, civil and political, by erroneous legislation,. must speedily beCome mortal, if it be not arrested by some legislative remedy of timely applica tion. The remedy suggested in the " Address," with a view directly to relieve, and perma nently re-establish, that branch of our population which has hitherto most suffered, and at present languishes and declines under the influence of the disease we deprecate, would indirectly but rapidly reinvigorate the energies and prosperity of all other sections of the public who have been felloW-sufferers from the same evil influence. The type of the, disease is, :" all the wrong and misery" which have been wrought to the labouring poor, in all occupations, by the Currency Act of 1819 ; and the simple remedy proposed is, the repeal of that fatal measure, accom panied with the issue, by Government, of Govern ment paper to the amount of our annual taxatiop. It would be affectation on our parts were we to disclaim the gratification we have derived from find ing that the "Address," in tracing the origin and' the course of the disease which has so long invaded, and now threatens to destroy, " the comfort and happiness of all the productive classes," and in indicating the remedial course requisite to be taken for its removal, concurs in all respects with the views which we have ourseli , es long announced on these subjects, and have more particularly enforced for some months past. The Address, after announcing that " the time has arrived when active' measures must be taken for the protection and relief of the indu,stry of the, country," takes a rapid review of those isolated and partial attempts which, only, have hitherto been made "to rescue our suffering people from the cruel bondage" imposed on them by the consequences or the results of the mea;. sures we have so often denounced. It adverts to the Anti-Corn-law League, and its exertions on behalf of the manufacturer; to the efforts from time to time put forward on behalf of factory children—female colliery labourers—education of the children of the poor, &c.—and laments the insufficiency of these "to meet the exigencies of the times." It then proceeds, " We turn to our fellow -countrymen of every de gree, and ask them to join us in forming a Society which, entertaining no schemes of private advantage, , but devoted solely to the public good, hopes, by the corrective aid of the Legislature, to remove the evils which an unfortunate Act of Legislation has created." We will not do the "Address" the injustice of giving, in abstract only, the several paragraphs occupied by the argument for the propriety of securing taxation wages to the labourer, and taxation prices to the manufac turer and the agriculturist —as to the manu factured commodities of the one; and the produce of the other; or to the demonstration of that enormous legislative blunder or injustice--unparalleled at least in the annals of legislative spoliation—which by fixing and legalising, exclusively, a gcad standard of cur- . rency, and diminishing the previous paper circulation in the enormous proportion necessary to enable the Bank of England to meet its excessive liabilities under this more expensive and prodigiously decreased metallic currency, so reduced prices, and by conse quence the wages of labour, that " it is calculated that more than 30,000,000/. annually are wrung from the hard earnings of the poor by means of extra toil and increased privations, which nature cannot long endure." "By adding taxation to natural or gold prices, that portiun of the indirect taxes which cannot be borne by the productive classes in their productive capacity will be paid at last by the con sumer"--from whose shoulders, let it never be forgotten —Sir ROBERT PEEL'S iniquitous Bill quietly trans ferred it to those of the then already taxed, but since miserably under-paid, under-fed, and unregarded labourer and artisan. As we 'must here conclude our notice of the " Address," we may commend these, its benevolent purposes, to the best assistance and the best wishes of our readers. " We object to the labouring man being burthened with the task or providing all that wealth which others, who do not work, enjoy at his expense, while they allow him, in re turn for unremitting toil, less food and clothing, worse shel ter, coarser and harder fare, than a West India planter allowed his slaves, or an English farmer gives his horses. We are desirous of seeing th e i n d ustr i ous workman partake of some of the benefits of those improvements in machinery which have hitherto added so wonderfully to the luxuries of the rich, but have sunk the poor into deeper poverty." " To effect this, we shall urge that higher wages be given— wages not merely increased in numerical amount, but able to command a greater quantify of every useful and necessary article. We pledge ourselves to prove that this is attainable with the greatest facility, depending for the extent of its be. ne4.cial action solely upon a vote of the Legislature." We indulge a pleasing confidence that this appeal will be most efficiently responded to throughout the country; and we cordially concur in the old ballad. prediction that follows : 44 It was ones merry England, And it shall be so again." THE. SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 1, 1844. HER MAJESTY'S SPEECH, OPENING OF PARLIAMENT Mr LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, It affords me great satisfaction again to meet you in Parliament, and to have the opportunity of profiting by your assistance and advice. I entertain a confident hope that the general peace so necessary for the happiness and prosperity of all nations will continue uninterrupted. My friendly relations with the King of the French, and the good understanding happily esta blished between my Government and that of his Majesty, with the continued assurances of the peace ful and amicable dispositions of all Princes and States, confirm me in this expectation. I have directed that the treaty which I have concluded with the Emperor of China shall be laid before you, and I rejoice to think that it will, in its results, prove highly advantageous to the trade of this country. Throughout the whole course of my negocia tions with the Government of China, I have uni formly disclaimed the wish for any exclusive advan tages. It has been my desire that equal favour should be shown to the industry and commercial enterprise of all nations. The hostilities which took place during the past year in Sinde have led to the annexation of a con siderable portion of that country to the British pos sessions in the East. In all the military operations, and especially in the battles of Meanee and Hyderabad, the constancy and valour of the troops, Native and European, and the skill and gallantry of their distinguished Com mander have been most conspicuous. I have directed that additional information ex planatory of the transactions in Sinde, shall be forth with communicated to you. GENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, The Estimates for the ensuing year will be im mediately laid before you. They have been prepared with a strict regard to economy, and at the same time with a due consideration of those exigencies of the Public Service which are con nected with the maintenance of our maritime strength, and the multiplied demands on the Naval and Military Establishments from the various parts of a widely-extended Empire. MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, I congratulate you on the improved condition of several important branches of the trade and manufac tures of the country. I trust that the increased demand for labour has relieved, in a corresponding degree, many classes of my faithful subjects from sufferings and privations, which, at former periods, I have had occasion to deplore. For several successive years the annual produce of the Revenue fell short of the Public Expenditure. I confidently trust that in the present year the public income will be amply sufficient to defray the charges upon it. • I feel assured that in considering all matters connected with the financial concerns of the country, you will bear in mind the evil consequences of accu mulating debt during the time of peace, and that you will firmly resolve to uphold that public credit, the maintenance of which concerns equally the perma nent interests and the honour and reputation of a great country. In the course of the'present year the opportu nity will occur of giving notice to the Bank of England on the subject of the revision of its Charter. It may be advisable that during. this session of Parliament, and previously to the arrival of the period assigned for the giving of such' notice, the state of the law with regard to the privileges of the Bank of Eng land, and to other banking establishments, should be brought under your consideration. At the close of the last Session of Parliament, I declared to you my firm determination to main tain inviolate the Legislative Union between Great Britain and Ireland. I expressed, at the same tithe, my earnest desire to co-operate with Parliament in the adoption of all such measures as might tend to improve the social condition of Ireland, and to develope the natural re sources of that part of the United Kingdom. lam resolved to act in strict conformity with this declaration. I forbear from observations on events in Ireland, in respect to which proceedings are pending before the proper legal tribunal. My attention has been directed to the state of the law and practice with svgs.. rd to the occupation of land in Ireland. I have deemed it advisable to institute extensive local inquiries into a subject of So much importance, and have appointed a Commission with ample autho rity to conduct the requisite investigation. I :recommend to yowr early consideration the enactments at present in force in Ireland concern ing the registration of vorbers for Members of Par liament. You will probably find that a revision of the Law of Registration, taken in:. conjunction with other causes at present in opetattion, would produce a ma terial diminution of the :number of county voters. and that it - may be advisable on that account to consider the state of the licw, With a view to an ex tension of the county fran(jaite in Ireland. I commit to your dOiberate consideration the various important questions. of public policy which will necessarily come underYo;ur.:review,with full confidence in your loyalty and wisd crm, and with an earneBt prayer to Almighty God t wt. direct and favour your efforts to promote the we)tfire of all classes of my people.

THE COTTON CROP.--As vw e anticipated a fortnight ago, the speculators on both sides cot' the Atlantic have suc ceeded, by acting and re-acting.. vi i each other's operations, in procuring, both in the United S ates and here, an advance in price which we cannot think is 1 " justified by anything we have been able to discover, either it t the American papers, or in the state of our demand or con at amption here. Since our last arrivals from the United States it does appear that heavy rains have prevailed over a consi d erable extent of country occupied as cotton plantations ; an j I that, in consequence, the crop will be somewhat shorter' !than previously we had reason to expect. The general :anticipation in the United States, if we may judge fro% a the statements confi dently put forth in the newspai ii re, is, that it will not exceed 1,700,000 bales, and one ;letter from New Orleans estimates it as low as 1,600,000 lie & es. This, however, is the lowest estimate we have anywhere seen; and, on the other hand,. Messrs. Stewart and Wri; ht, cotton brokers, New York, in their circular, state tls of they see no reason to alter their estimate of 1,800,0 0() bales, made so long ago as the 14th of November 3 last. In the, midst of these conflicting statements, if •we refer to the state ment of the total quantities i4' cotton received at the various American ports, up to the I atest dates, as compared with the same dates in 1842—a itement which appears in the New York Shipping and Can tit nercial List of the 10th instant—we find those receipts tts be-1843, 707,367 - bales ; 1842, 906,036 bales. The differe x !,e t therefore, between the receipts of 1843 and 1842 is about 22k per cent. in favour of the last named year. In this t( ye In, there appears to be a general disposition to deduct 10 04 000 bales from previous estimates ; and this appears to us Iv )be a reasonable deduc tion for the damage which there: se aim too much reason to fear the crop has sustained sin ce the preceding advices. Though we cannot subscribe to tit e'; extreme views of the New Orleans letter already referred to, ;t1 s to the probable amount of the crop, it contains some st at ements with reference to peculiarities in the growth of the ;- , T .lant itself, not undeserv ing of attention by those interestb d'. in the trade. The intelli gence of the crop brought by the rte cent arrivals immediately produced a very active and excite d market in Liverpool ; prices rose fully id. per pound vt al as will be seen by the report of yesterday's cotton ma tin et, transactions to a large amount continued to be made, E Crld much speculative busi ness was done.—Manchester GuaP Adis in. _ :MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

ANTI-CORN-LAW MEETING AT STOCKPORT. On Tuesday evening one of, the largest, most, resPectable , ok, and- most enthusia s ti c mee ti ngs ever held in Stockport, to place last evening, i n a id o f th e great L eague Fund of 100,OCC'' The meeting was held in Batty's Royal Circus, Middle Bill" gate, a spacious pavilion, capable of seating 2,500 persons; and the whole available space in the boxes, pit, and galleries , was crowded to excess. At ten minutes before seven o'clock , the chair was taken by Cephas Howard, Esq., Mayor of the Borough ; and, on the platform were the following gentlemen :—Richard Cobden, Esq., M.P., Mr. Alderme n Armitage, and -Mr. R. Moore (a deputation from the Leagnet Henry Marsla n d, Esq., M.P. ; Messrs. Alderman We Alderman Hollins, Samuel Carrington, John Dyson Fernley; Rev. Charles Baker, Rev. S.

In opening the proceedings, the Chairman. said, they wer e met for the purpose of receiving the deputation -from the Anti-Corn-law League, advocates of the repeal of L b° corn-laws and free trade in every department of conuner'''' —(Loud applause.)—Henry Marsland, Esq.,llLP:, then cake forward to move the first resolution, and was received with cheers. He adverted to the origin of the Anti-Corn- 10 League, the opposition they had met- with, and the triumph they had achieved over their opponents. They had g°' among the agricultbral districts for the purpose of enlighten', ing the minds of those for whose benefit the corn-lawsyter e said to be enacted. Great had been the labours of his Ho' Colleague—(Loud cheers)—and his coadjutors in the cause; and the farmers had now become convinced that they wer not benefited by these laws, and had much rather that we should be the consumers of their produce than the victioe of their policy. The Anti-Corn-law League had done very much to liberat e us from the political t ramme l s in wine we were tied, and men of all shades of politics were now found uniting in this gre a t movement i n favour of free a nd , unshackled comme rce . Th e Whi gs were equally guilty the Tories in not caring for the country, and therefore t "..; country ceased to care for them. He rejoiced that this ir no party movement; and, as a proof that it was no Pu l l movement, he was glad to be able to point to the gentleiraw 'who now occupied the chair.—(Hear, 'hear.) After advert' . ing to the deep distress which had lately been felt in Stock' port,—distress which might soon return unless the policy by which it had been caused was altered,—he concluded by WO' ing the following resolution That this meeting; being firmly of opinion that this coult• try suffers severely from : the baneful effects of monopoly' especially the corn-law, and that an laws which interfere with the freedom of industry and with the bounties of Po: vidence are impolitic and unjust, resolves to tender its be assistance, on all necessary occasions, to the National Anti- Corn-law League, in its persevering endeavours for the coin' plete abolition of all commercial monopolies."—(Applause.) The Rev. Charles Baker, Baptist minister, briefly,,,se conded the resolution ; an d i t passed Without a single 'Li' sentient voice. A great number of addresses were presented by working men to Mr. Cobden from different manufaCtories, thanking him for his exertions, and calling upon hi m --to pe r severe in his great object—the destruction of monopolies. - Mr. Cobden returned thanks to the deputation, and then addressed the meeting.

This was an - action to recover compensation in damages for false imprisonment. It appeared that the plaintiff, who was a commercial traveller for a mercantile house in the City, en gaged from the defendant a phaeton, for which he was to pay 21. 10s. a month. Subsequently the plaintiff became involved in difficulties, and' having left his employment returned the phaeton to the defendant, at the same time stating his inability at that time to pay for the hire of the phaeton. The defendant detained .the servant of the plaintiff who brought it back, and having traced the plaintiff to a coffee-house, there arrested him en a eharge of felony, and caused him to be conveyed to the Moor-Pane station-house, where he was confined during the eight. The next morning he was taken before Sir. Peter Laurie, at Guild hall, who stated his belief that the case was not , one of felony, and remanded him to the next day, when the money was raised and the debt paid.--Nerdict for the plaintiff 5/. HUNTER V.

On reaching Gravesend the captain denounced them to the crew as pickpockets and members of the " swell mob," at the same time informing thein in language which could not be misconstrued, that they - Must land at Gravesend, and which they were compelled - to do, and where, from the pre judice created against them, they were annoyed by a mob, and refused refreshments or admission into any tavern in the town. After'several ineffectual attempts to get a passage by the steam-boats plying to London, they were compelled, at, consi - derable expense, to take a carnage to town. The de fendant is the proprietor of the steam-boat. An action was brought last term by Mr. Coppin, one of the party, againSt Mr. Braithwaite, when the preceding facts were adduced, and a verdict.found for 501. in his favour.

Sirl—We, the undersigned vicar, rector, churchwardens, and inhabi tants of the parishes of St. Nicholas and St. Paul, Deptford, Kent, desire to express our sincere thanks for the prompt and effective assistance rendered by you and the officers and men under your command, at the alarming fire which oc curred in High-street, Deptford, on the 11th instant, and our admiration of the intrepidity and orderly and soldierlike conduct displayed on that occasion, by which the threatened serious conflagration was arrested, and but for which we feel convinced a very great loss of property, if not of life, must have occurred. We request you will accept for yourself, and be good enough to communicate to those of your corps to whose very zealous exertions we and our fellow-townsmen are:so much indebted, this earnest of our feelings of gratitude towards you and them. We remain, &c." The following is the reply :—" Royal Marine Barracks, Deptford. Gentle men,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt o f a document bearing your signatures, together with many others of the respectable inhabitants of Deptford, expressing their gratitude to the officers, non-commissioned officers, and pri vates, under my orders, in reducing and stoppi ng t h e f i re which broke out on the morning of the 11th inst., in High street, Deptford. I have to request that you will be pleased to convey to them the high gratification. I feel that the de tachment of the Royal Marines under my command should have proved of so much service at a time when much valu able property was threatened ivith destruction. I trust that they will always meet their approbation under similar and any other circumstances. I have the honour to be your obedient servant, J. BUCHANAN, Captain commanding de tachment.

Talk of the wild Irish ! Talk rather of the wild Saxon ; for in the whole course of the proceedings, rashness, and bigotry, and violence, and the worst passions, have all been displayed on one side, and that is the side of the Crown. It is impossible to form a greater contrast than that between the prosecu tors and the traversers. The latter have, in every respect, conducted themselves according to the strictest forms of law, and the most fastidious cour tesy towards the Bench and the law officers of the Crown ; yet; because one of the counsel in the course of hiS address to the jury tells the Attorney-Gene ral some plain truths, that legal functionary flies into a passion, and insults the Court, the de fendants, and his country, by an appeal to arms. "If these things are done in the green tree, what will be done in the dry ?" If such opprobrious acts are committed in open Court, what may be committed behind the scenes ? If a list of forty-eight jurors is stolen, who will now be accused as the culprit ? If an Attorney-General can openly set the law of his country at defiance, while conducting a solemn in vestigation, what may be done by himself and his underlings in secret ? The impartial public, nay,' even those that are not always impar tial, will view such a scene with ab-. solute horror, and ask what chance any man has for justice under such a system ? If Mr. O'CONNELL is guilty of the charges brought against him (of which we believe him entirely innocent), he has " the d—l's luck" in being blessed with such a prosecutor. No one cares what Mr. SMITH now says or does, and the sooner these trials are brought to a close, by an acquittal, the better for the Crown, the Government, and the country. The Irish State trials were resumed on Tuesday, when Mr. FITZGIBBON commenced his address, as Counsel for Dr. GRAY. He said that the doctrine of con spiracy, al- la: `; , e Attorney-General, was, that it was a to or more persons to do an illegal act, or to do a lawful act through unlawful means. He denied the correctness of the doctrine. That proposition had been laid down by Lord DEN MAN, in a case which occurred in 1832, and had been repeated by the same Learned Lord in a case in 1834. But it was a mere dictum and not a decision ; and in 1839,when it wascited before Lord DENMAN himself, his Lordship said he did not think it a correct proposition, In the case of the King v. Forbes, better known as the bottle riot case, Chief Justice Bunn had laid down a similar doctrine to that of Lord DENMAN, and it was to be found in East's Pleas of the Crown. But however good a text-writer EAST was, he denied that [he was to be considered a good legal authority. They had looked in CORE, and all the old autho rities on • the subject, without being able to dis cover any such doctrine. With respect to the two cases cited by the Attorney-General in support of the doctrine above quoted—viz., the King v. Watson, Howel's State Trials, vol. 22, and the case of the King v. Murphy, Bth Carrington and Payne, in which latter case Mr. Justice COLERIDGE had laid down the doctrine of conspiracy adopted by the Attorney-Gene ral, he submitted that they did' not apply in the present instance at all. The former case was one of high treason, and could not be cited as similar to the present, which was one of misdemeanour, and therefore Mr. Justice BAYLEY'S- decision on it must not be considered valid. In the case of the King v. Murphy, though the doctrine laid down by the Attorney-General was applicable to the facts there, it was by no means so to the facts in the present case. The Learned Gentleman de nied that there was any case of conspi racy established. The people were peaceable and orderly. They were not drilled, and ordered to advance and retire, as they were in' Eng land. The people met in large numbers, but it was by such means that redress of grievances was always obtained. The Learned Gentleman then re ferred to the means adopted by the mailed Barons of England when the great charter of England's berties was wrested from King Jon; and to the attitude assumed by the people at the time of the Clare election. He afterwards commented, in very strong language, on the conduct of the Attorney -General with regard to the prosecutions. He did no object to his doing his duty, but he ought to do so ill a manly and straightforward manner, and not state the law incorrectly to obtain the conviction of a brother barrister, who had been an ornament to his profession for many years. He concurred with the Attorney-General that this was a mo mentous case—momentous to the Attorney-General, and the party with which he was connected. It would afford that party a scourge to repress the people from giving expression to their feelings and opinions, but he trusted the Court and jury would interpose to pre vent them from obtaining that power. The juries of England had always saved the liberties of the people when they were sought to be crushed by charges like the present. The last case of ' this kind was the charge of constructive treason brought against Tooan and HARDY, but an English jury three times brought in a verdict of not guilty. Our Dublin Correspondent gives the result of the day's proceedings in these words : " One of the most extraordinary scenes that perhaps ever took place in a court of justice, was enacted this afternoon in the Court of Queen's Bench, between the Attorney-General and Mr. FITZGIBBON. It would seem that the good old practice, so peculiarly Irish, of settling all matters in dispute by an appeal to the pistol is, in these degenerate days, becoming, so fallen into disuse, that, to sustain the character of the law, even the law-officers of the Crown, and that 'too in open Court, call out "Any money for a duel !" During the progress of Mr. FITZGIBBON'S speech this day, the Court and Jury retired as usual about two o'clock, for refreshment. During their absence the Attorney-General was observed :o convey a note to Mr. FITZGIBBON, which he had been writing in Court. On the return of their Lordship, Mr. FITZGIBBON applied to them to aacertain whether he had, during The Irish Attorney-General, already too cele brated for his way of conducting state prosecutions, has at last reached the climax of absurdity, and brought the Government which he represents into supreme contempt. In every step he has taken in these momentous trials he has committed a blunder. The original panel of jurors was mutilated by the withdrawal, or suppression, or abstraction, of forty eight jurors; all the Catholics on the list were struck off; the whole of Catholic Ireland was roused to mad ness by this deliberate insult; and every wise and im partial and honest Protestant said this rash proceed ing vitiated the whole proceedings. But all these blunders or machinations, all the remaining bigoted prejudices of bygone times, all the concealed rancour of Orangemen in office, and the evident determination of certain parties, by foul or fair means, to obtain a verdict against Mr. O'Colnum, are nothing com pared with the outrageous, and the hitherto un exampled, conduct of the first law officer of the Crown,. in challenging a brother advocate in the midst of the proceedings to fight a duel. Why is he not put into Bedlam at once? Why is the representative of even-handed justice—the guardian of the SUMMARY OF NEWS AND pubitt -)tattoit. " Who runs may rewl."

Sirt—l quite agree with " A Manager" respecting the cause of the increase in the deposits hi the Savings' Banks; He says " That the increase in the amount of deposits is no criterion, the description of the depositors can only be fairly looked at." I shall be sorry if the interest be lowered, as it is said that it is likely to be, when the Parliament meets, to " make Acts to amend Acts," &c. &c. l am convinced that many persons have money in the Savings" Banks, who ought not to have. Much of the amounts now in the Banks are not Savings, but Legacies, and as the 'writer justly states, " the money is vested in trustees for So-and-so." or one I hope that the interest will not be lowered, but that a more strict investigation shoUld be made by the - Managers of Savings, and not, as they are now, Legacy Banks.--I remain, respect- fully.
