LON DON, WEDNESDAY Z - N G AN Additional and Important Evidence of the Salutary Effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, from Mr. Samuel Dixon, of Kingscliffe, Northamptonshire. Kingscliffe, Northamptonshire, March 14, 1846. To Mr. Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London. " Sir,—l feel it a duty which I owe to yourself and the public to „f orm you of the great benefit which I have derived by taking Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. During several years I was fre quently laid up by attacks of gout, being unable to attend to business for months at a time. I had often been advised to try Blair's Pills, but it was not until a friend pressed them upon me that I was in duced to take them. and from which I found speedy relief. This is several years ago, but I continue to take them whenever an attack comes on, and am thereby enabled quickly to resume my business. • I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " SAMUEL DIXON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheu matism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and certain relief. Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none have contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the com munity, nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the important discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recommen dation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effective for gout and rheumatism in all its various forms, including sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth ache, &c. They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part.

These Pills have for years been employed in most of the Metro politan Hospitals and Dispensaries, and were extensively prescribed by the late Samuel Cleverley, M.D., Physician to the father of her present Majesty, his late Royal Highness the Duke of Kent; John Armstrong, M.D., Member of the Royal College of Physicians of London, Lecturer on the Principles and Practice of Physic at the Webb-street School of Anatomy, and onsulting Physician to the London Fever Hospital; William Milligan, M.D., Member of the London and Edinburgh Royal Colleges of Physicians, Physician to the Middlesex Infirmary, and Royal Universal Infirmary for Chil dren, Lecturer on the Principles and Practice of Physic, Chemistry, and Materia Medics, at the Windmill-street School of Anatomy; J.

Many other medical gentlemen of distinguished eminence in London have borne testimony to the effi cacy of these Pills, whose professional character and rank are a sufficient guarantee for the advantages to be derived from the use of this invaluable medicine.—Prepared only by M. 0.

At the Dorset Quarter Sessions, on Tuesday, the larqui s of W es t m i nster again introduced to the Court . his opinio ns upon the subject of pr i son d i s- Time and sep arate confinement. The top i c had ecupied the att en ti on of the Court upon three former .ccasions, and has as many times been noticed in our •olumns. On this occasion the Noble Marquis ob erved, that the subject still weighed upon his mind, in . d . the more s t rong l y, because he felt, when com maing a prison er to the gaol of Dorchester h e was :ommitting an i rrepara b le injury. He had a perfect collection of one case of this kind, where the man eft the gaol much worse than when be was sent here, and his re• commitment became necessary. the question was whether or no the separate system was the only means that had been found effectual in •eforniing offenders, and he submitted that it was. En proof of this, the Noble Marquis adduced the re port of the chaplain of the Preston House of Correc • tion, the opinion of the Governor of the Glasgow House of Correction, the experience of the Model Prison at Pentonville, attested as it was, lay , Lord Chi c h es t er, t h e Speaker of the House of Commons, Si r B. B ro di e, M a j or Jebb, and others ; the sen ti ments expresse d at a meeting at Frankfort l as t year o f b enevolent an d distinguished men from Engla n d, F rance, R uss i a , G e rmany, Swit zerland, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Sweden, Holland, America, and othe r nat i ons ; an d a t which meeting a unanimous resolution in favour of separate and solitary confinement was agreed, to.; the reports of the inspectors o f th e W es t ern Penitentiary, at Penn • sylvania, the testimony of Judge Par sons when charging a gran d j ur y i n Philadelphia, and the opinions of Lord John John Russell in 1837, and of Sir G. Grey during his present term of office;—all which were expressive of the good effect, under pro per management, of the system for which he con tended. This system had already been carried out in twenty-eight prisons, with three of which he was conne&ed, and he wished to add Dorset to th e num ber. He knew that in rural districts there was a great objection to laying out money, b u t h e w i s h ed them to look at this question more as tradesmen than farmers, calculating upon the ultimate return rather than upon the present advantage. He con c l u d e d a long address by leaving the subject in the h an d s of the Court, expressing himself, h owever, un willing to relinquish a question which he considered of vast consequence to the moral state not only of thot county, but of the nation at large. M r . G. BANES, M.P., the chairman, after thank ing the Noble Lord for the able and comprehensive manner in which he had stated his case, observed that it was very true that the court was cautions in laying out large sums of money ; the magistrates felt that the money which they expended was not their own, but was contributed by parties who were less able to contribute it than they themselves were. It was evident the Government had some comprehensive scheme in contemplation, and, although he would not then venture to pass any decidedly strong opinion upon it, still he must say that he concurred in the observations of Lord Denman, that the proposition for abolishing transportation was an " appalling" one. At present it would be most imprudent to lay out their money in altering our Faols, still he hoped the Noble Marquis would not relinquish the subject, but bring it forward, if necessary, upon some future and more convenient occasion. After a few remarks from Mr. FLOYER, M.P., the subject dropped, as on all former occasions, without any definite result. MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAILWAY.—MANCHESTER, MONDAY.—This morning special meeting of the shareholders of this company was held in the Corn Exchange of this town, for the purpose of obtaining the sanction of the proprietors to the several Bills now betbre Parliament for the construction of short branches, and also for their amalgamation with the Canal Company, &e. Thomas. Gisborne, Esq., M.P., presided. After the advertisement calling the meeting had been read by Mr. Stevenson, the law clerk, the chairman stated that the whole of the hills which were that day to be submitted to them had already undergone considera ble discussion, and that the directors were unanimous as to the importance of each of the separate schemes. The object of the meeting was, therefore, merely to legalise the contracts and the applications to Parliament. The whole of the Bills were then read over, and in each case a resolution, authorising the directors to prosecute them with vigour, was unanimously adopted; after which a vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meeting separated. TESTIMONIAL TO DR. TAYLOR.—The students of the faculty of medicine in University College are about to present to Dr. Taylor, their late esteemed Professor of Clinical Medicine, an address and testimonial, ex pressive of their high regard and estimation of his cha racter and talents.

Rowland and Sons, silversmiths, of Regent-street, will be exhibited to all friends interested in the matter, in the council-room of the College, during the early part of the week. Dr. Taylor was the first student of the College elevated to one of its professorships, but held office only a short time, his health breaking down under its onerous duties. ROBBERIES.—On Monday the police received infor mation of the following robberiest—Stolen from the house of Mrs. Somes, Grove-place' B ro mpton, a gold curb chain with lo c k et attached, a bunch of roses on it, and the words " Forget me not;" a gold pin set with turquoise, and ss. in silver. On the Bth, from the house of Mr. Shepherd, Forestgate, Essex, five silver dessert forks, a silver butter knife, a fish fork, and a silver des sert spoon. On the 7th, from 56, Poland-street, the property of Mr. Wilson, a lodger, a gold ring set with pearls, a mourning ring, a valuable gold ring set with a blue stone resemblin g a b a b oon ' s hea d ; a gold ring set with paste and garnets, gold snake brooch with turquoise eyes, and a variety of wearing apparel and linen. On the 9th, from the person of Mr. Levy, in Size-lane, Bucklersbury, a gold lever watch and a steel purse con taining 71. 10s. in gold. IMPORTATION OF HERRINGS,—The ship Ina ar• rived in the Commercial Docks from St. John's, New Brunswick, has brought, in addition to an extensive cargo of wood goods, the very large number of 637 boxes of herrings in a preserved state, and four firkius of butter, the production of that British province of North America. CIVILISATION IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY.— It seems strange that in the middle of the nineteenth century—in the capital of the civilised world—in a country distinguished for its respect for public decency —for high moral feeling, and, above all, for its profes sion of Christian principles, any necessity should exist for an appeal on the question which we are about to dis cuss. Yet such is the fact. Scarcely a day passes with out our witnessing the most revolting violations of the sanctuaries of the dead, whilst the hundreds of burying places of this huge metropolis, permitted to exist in the midst of its living population, are so many centres of infection, laboratories of malaria, whence issue most offensive and deadly compounds, the gaseous products of human putrefaction, the food, if not the principles, of malignant disease and premature death. If I establish, as I believe I shall, these propositions, we are bound by a double motive to use every exertion for the removal of this dark stain—this foul blot, from our national cha racter. As Christians, we are called upon to crush, and that for ever, a system that necessarily entails and im poses the daily execution of deeds, from the perpetration of which barbarians would recoil with abhorreece. As men, as members of a civilised community, it is our duty to remove constantly increasing causes of dis - comfort, disease, and frequently inconceivable suffering, ' existing more especially among our poorer brethren, whose poverty, and whose avocation s too frequently compel their residence in localities where the evil is ,--th°enchairman of most prominent—where, in a word, the burying- places, Saturday public and private, are most numerous and most danger ously overcharged.—From Mr. G. A. Walker's Lecture G by u m ILD r. II B A u L r L n . on the Metropolitan Graveyards. the city lands committee ; Mr. Saunders, the city comptroller ; and Mr. Bunning, th e city surveyor ; assisted by Mr. Braidwood, the superintendent of the a n T inquiry i iE st T w E a s FIREi s ti I u A t e i' d London fire brigade, as to the origin of the fire at Guild hall. Mr. Wood, the superintendent of the Guildhall watch, Stewart, the chief officer, and several other wit nesses were examined, and from their evidence it ap. peered that the fire was discovered by Wood and Stewart on going their rounds, and the latter, who had been in the fire brigade, speedily got the hall engines into play. The fire existed in the coal vault, under the lobby lead ing from the courts of law to the hall, and under the the brigade _engines did n o t arrive for nearly half an hour, when one only w as brought into use, as the watchmen and others, under the direction of Stewart, had brought the hall engine to play upon the fire through a trap-door in the lobby, being unable to go down from the density of the smoke. It is a matter of doubt whether the fire originated from spontaneous combustion of the coals and faggot wood, or from the overheating of hot air pipes, but no person was known to have gone below after seven o'clock on the previous morning, and great precaution is taken to pre vent all parsons from passing that way after the watch is set. Had it not been for the timely discovery, im mense loss would in all probability have resulted, as the wooden flooring of the lobby forms the ceiling of the vault, and the library, courts of law, and probably the comptroller's department would have fallen a sacrifice to the flames, and invaluable books and documents been destroyed. The conclusion which the committee of in quiry came to was not made known, but will be re ported to the city lands committee at a special m eet i ng.

MYSTERIOUS CASE OP DROWNINC—On Monday an inquest was held, by adjournment, at the Queen's Head, High-street, Poplar, before Mr. W. Baker, respecting the death of Deedrich Kendrap, who was found floating in the Blackwell Basin of the • West India Docks. It appeared that the deceased was a native of Bremen, in Germany, and had lately arrived in London, on a plea sure excursion. He took lodgings at the Castle public house, in Whitechapel, where he remained until Tues day morning last, when he left the house, and at twelve o'clock the same morning his body was discovered float ing in the Blackwell Basin, quite dead. He was searched by one of the dock constables who found on him a sm a ll book, in which was written his name and address, and a watch guard, but the watch was missing. The constable said it was very unusual for bodies to float when they had only been in the water such a short time. The deceased soon after his arrival in London was knocked down in the streets, and robbed of 131. Since that period he had been principally supported by the landlord of the Castle, and the master of the brig Dorothea. In the absence of any conclusive evidence, the jury returned a verdict of "Found drowned." MISS BURDETT COUTTS'S NEW CHURCH.--The ar rangements for proceeding with the erection of Miss Burdett Coutts's new church, in Rochester-row, West minster, to which an ecclesiastical district has already been assigned, having now been completed, the founda tion stone will be laid in the course of a few days with the customary solemnities. It is expected that the cere mony will be performed by Miss Coutts in person, assisted by the Bishop of London and the Dean and Chapter of Westminster. The site has been gratuitously made over by the Dean and Chapter. Until the com pletion of the church divine service is to be perfia-need in the temporary building which has been for some time opened, under the ministry of the Rev. W. Tennant, M.A., incumbent of the new district. THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR COMFORT, SAFETY, HEARING, &C. IN THE NEW OPERA HOUSE.—The means of properly heating and ventilating the house appear to have received due attention. Ilot-air stoves are fitted up under the pit stalls, w.th flues to conduct the warmed air over the house ; and every gas lamp in the corridors has a ventilating-pipe above it. On the: e, and some other points, however, we reserve our opinion, not venturing to form one hastily. For the extin guishing of fire, should it occur, mains, supplied from cisterns in the upper part of the house, are provided, with cocks and hose on each tier. As to the general safety of the building, notwithstanding the rapidity with which the works have been carried on, they have been done in the soundest and most substantial manner, and so as to entitle Mr. Albano, the architect, and all con cerned in them, to great praise. As regards the con veyance of sound, we are disposed to consider the new opera-house singularly successful. During the perform. ance we visited every part of the house, and found in every place that the lowest sound from the stage was distinctly audible.—The Builder. The never-failing effects of Blair's Gout and Rheu matic Pills in curing every description of gout and rheuma tism have secured to them a celebrity unequa ll ed by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, where the patient has been driven nearly to madness by the excruciating tortures of this disease, but re store to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in rheumatism, either chronic or acute, lumbago, sciatica, pains in the bead or face, and indeed for every rheumaiic or gouty affection in fact, such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it; and there is scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN THE BELVEDERE-ROAD. —On Monday afternoon, between four and five, an acci dent of a most deplorable character, and which it is ex pected will be attended with fatal consequences, occurred in the Belvedere-road to a young man, about twenty, named Joseph Cox, who was engaged for the Wood Carving Company, in the above road, where some work shops are being constructed. The unfortunate man had ascended a ladder to a height of upwards of forty feet, when suddenly losing his hold he fell to the bottom, and was picked up and conveyed to the Charing-cross Hos pital in a frightfully mutilated state. Mr. Steghall, the house-surgeon, said that he had received, besides a broken leg, a severe fracture of the skull and other injaries, that rendered his recovery almost hopeless. lie remains in a dreadful state of suffering at the above institution. The Right Hon. T. Milner Gibson has returned to town. PitiCE SD. FORGERIES ON THE LGNDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. A young man of very respectable appearance, named Horatio Nelson West, was brought before the Lord Mayor, in the custody of Daniel Forrester, the officer, charged with having been concerned in forging a great number of documents, purporting to be shares in thf. London and South- Western Railway Company. Another person, w h ose name, as the evidence did not involve him criminally in the transaction, we shall not publish, was put to the bar at the same time, upon sus picion of having been concerned in the offence. Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, appeared for the prose cution, and Mr. Humphreys attended for the prisoner West. The second prisoner, who seemed to be quite astonished at his situation, was undefended. The Learned Counsel for the prosecution briefly stated the case, which, he said, was brought forward at the instance of the directors of the company. Applica tions had been ma d e to the proprietors - of the new Money-market, by letter addressed from Portland place, to sell a number of shares, and it was strange enough that these shares were found to be forged upon the detection of another offence committed by the per petrator, who received in payment of a cheque 401. more than he was entitled to, and appropriated that sum to his own purposes. Mr. James W. Stephens, partner with Mr. Luke James Hansard, said, on the Bth of March, about three or four o'cleck in the afternoon, I received a letter by the hands of a messenger, a person of shabby appear ance, enclosing fifty shares in the London and South- Western Railway Company, and purporting to come from a gentleman named Craven, of Portland-place. In consequence of the directions contained in that letter, I got the shares verified the following morning at the office of the company, and they were disposed of to Dr. Henry Clark, of Southampton. Observing there was no number mentioned in the letter, I asked the mana ger what number it was in Portland-place, and he, with out any hesitation, said No. 11. On the 9th of March the same messenger brought the letter I produce, pur porting to be from the same gentleman, and requesting to know whether the fifty shares had been sold, and I sent him back an answer, stating that the sale had taken place according to the instructions. Just as I was going to post the letter advising him of the sale, the same messenger came and handed me another letter, request ing the amount of the proceeds. I wrote an answer to him, stating to him that we had not as yet received the proceeds of the sale, but that as soon as we received the money, we would forward it to him. On the following morning we received another letter, stating that Mr. Craven expe c t e d, w h en he sent to us, that we were agents in cash transactions alone, and requesting that a cheque for the amount should be at once transmitted to him. As I received intimation that I might have the amouut that day, I determined to call myself at Portland place, and leave the cheque for Mr. Craven ; and just as I was going out of my office for that purpose, I met the messenger at the door, put a cheque for 2591. 7s. 6d. into an envelope, sealed it, directed it, and gave it to the man to convey to his master. On the following day the clerk of the banking-house at which the cheque was paid called and said he had overpaid the cheque 401. In consequence of this communication I was induced to send for the prisoner West, who called twice at my office, but I happened to be out. In about a week, how ever, I saw him, and I asked him from whom he had obtained four 101. Bank of England notes which I named to him, and I told him our bank,rs had paid that amount too much, and that the notes had been traced to his pos session. He said that the second prisoner who stands next to him at the bar, and one Mr. Wilson, whom he did not know, came to his office to transact railway business, and that one or other of them gave him the notes, as the second prisoner owed him some money in another transaction. I pressed him to sly which of them had given hi m th e notes , an d h e sa id t h e second prisoner. West gave b..ck tie 401. I said to him, " Why da you trouble yourself about it, and why don't you make the ,( cowl prisoner pay you what you have given up?" He said that Mr. Wilson is one of the Hall of Commerce chaps, and I know nothing about him, and I don't like nis appearance, or something of that kind. I asked him if he had any obj..ctio:i to walk with me. He said he was perfectly willing. I wished West to identify Wil -on, and lie walked with me to the Royal Exchange. I [old him we had sent the shares to the company, and borewith it. Daniel Forrester, the officer, stated that in conse quence of the information which he had received about the overpaid 401., he took some steps in the case, and he received information from Birmingham which in duced him to' look after West. He found that there had been an exchange of money at the Bank, part of which was of the sum drawn from the banking-house of the last witness, for gold. West said he had received the forty pounds of the second prisoner and a man named Wilson and the second prisoner, came into West's office at the time, and said he did hand some money to West, and that he and Wilson had had some money transac tions, and he had received change from Wilson, and gave to West, to whom he owed it. In the course of conver sation with West, witness was told by him that he had been at Ely, but that he had not been at Birmingham for two years and a half. Witness said to him, " Mr. West, you have been at the post-office in Moorgate street for letters in the name of Perry," and he denied it. He said he had been there, but he had bought a knife and a ring there. The man from the post-office at Birmingham identified him as the person who had called for letters in the name of Perry. Mr. Clarkson said to the second prisoner, who seemed disposed to speak, "As you have no legal ad viser, I would advise you not to speculate upon ques tioning this witness." The second prisoner—l don't want to speculate upon anything. lam innocent of any offence. Mary Ann Dingley, of 124, Moor-street, Birmingham, said—l know West by the name of Perry, and he came and lodged in my house from the 18th of March, with the exception of one single night, the 26th, to the 2d of April. Mr. Clarkson then said he should call a gentleman to give direct evidence as to the forged shares. Mr. John Brown, in partnership with Mr. Thomas Price, sharebrokers, said—l received a letter from a person of the name of Perry requesting us to sell some shares, and we sold them, and on the 22d of March we remitted to J. Perry, 124, Moor-street, Birmingham, bank notes to the amount of 1401., one No. 94,538, of 1001. is one of the notes. The shares produced, Nos. 1,411 to 1,415, are parts of those which we sold for Mr. Perry. Mi. Alfred Morgan, treasurer to :the London and South-Western Railway Company, looked at the shares produced by the last witness, and stated that they were forgeries. The five shares purport to be 50/. shares. A great number of forgeries had been detected, to the amount (as we understood the witness) of 2,5001. Mr. Charles Morgan, solicitor to the company, said he had reason to believe that he should soon have very im portant witnesses to produce to show the ramifications of the system of fraud. The second prisoner said, whatever fraud might be proved, he had nothing to do with it. He begged to be allowed to put in bail. He did not care about the amount. He had certainly been unfortunate enough t•) engage in shares, to have many dealings in them, but of dishonest th alias , . he solemnly protested be knew no thing. If he had been imposed upon he could not help it. Ho had a houseful of children, and he begged he should not be kept from them. He did not want, to skulk. Mr. Humphreys did not object to a remand in tl,e case of bis client Brest. The Loan MAYOR said that he should remand W( , i, till next week, but that probably ho should take bail in the case of the second priAlni.r tit M very short notice, CORONER'S INQUEST.-011 Monday Mr. Joseph Payne, deputy coroner, held an inquest at the Blue Broadway, Ludgate-hill, on the body of Elizabeth Max well, aged 44, who was burned to death at her residence. No 5, Broadway. Barbara Hill, of 6, Star-street, Edge ware road, said that the deceased was her sister. About half past six o'clock on Saturday night she sent witness to Coger's Hall, Bride-lane, to see it her husband was there. She returned in about a quarter of au hour, and on entering the room found the deceased lying in front of the grate, and on going to feel for her head, the fle-,h came off in her hand. She was most dreadfully burned over the head, face, and neck. When she went out deceased appeared very weak and odd in her manner, as if she had been drinking. In answer to the Coroner, witness stated that deceased was in the habit of eating very little, but drinking a great deal. She could not tell how the occurrence too k p l ace. Ros i na J en kins, a little girl ten years of age, who first made the discovery, was called into th e C ourt , b ut h er answers res pecting the obligations of an oath being unsatisfactory, the Coroner refused to examine her. George Maxwell, a tailor, said, that he saw his wife alive for the last time on Saturday, at noon. She was then sober, but un‘i ell. She had been ill for some months. Mr. John Richmond (the landlord of the house) said, that the deceased had lodged with him for three years. His impression was that she was intoxicated, and fell into the fire. There was no alarm given by the deceased herself, or he must have heard it, as he was in the shop the whole of the evening. A juror said, that t en m i nutes before the alarm was raised, one of his lodgers, living opposite the - house, sent to know if h e was burning anythin the as g, there was such an unpl easant smell? No doubt deceased's body was b ur i ng at that period. Verdict— Accidental Death. F D R e c t . OIL CARE._ A person named .

V/2 '-_J) VAN hIEMEN'S LAND AGAIN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. S nit — Having read in your journal of the 10th inst. a reprint of a letter addressed to the Editor of the Times journal, signed " Audi Alteram Partem," in relation to the recall of Sir Eardley Wilmot from the government of Van Diemen's Land, accompanied by your own edito rial observations upon the measures adopted towards that gentleman (as worthy of admiration as they were cha racteristic of that independent spirit which has ever distinguished your valuable print), I am induced to bring under your notice another case connected with the same colony, involvin g , I will ventur e to say, circumstances no less grievous in their features, and no less calculated to produce ruinous consequences to the individual prin cipally concerned than those which have already evoked the well-earned mead of y our condemnation. I aUudt to the case of Mr. Sydney Stephen, late a practising barrister in Van Diemen's Lsnd, where he had, ft r many years prior to 1842, enjoyed an unsullied reputation. and an almost unexampled professional success. In the above-mentioned year, Mr. Stephen was called upon by the Judges of the Supreme Court of that colony to answer to a charge of having acted in some specified case at Nisi Prius in the twofold capacity of counsel and attorney. There was something in this accusation calculated to produce ill-natured ex citement, the facility of stimulating which is pro verbial in all small communities, and criminatory affidavits were readily supplied, for the purpose of heaping condemnation upon this gentleman. investigation succeeded, the result of which wa A s t j h u a d t i M cka r. Stephen found himself deprived of all the honours, privi leges, and emoluments of the colonial bar, for which he had many years before resigned those of a practising barrister, in England ; deprived by a sentence of dismissal Pronounced by the two judges who composed the Su preme Court, and pronounced, so far as relates to Mr. Justice Montagu, in language so redundant of invective, as to call for the severe reprehension of my Lord Brougham in pronouncing the judgment of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in reversal of the sen tence, declaring that there was no colour whatsoever for the charges so preferred against Mr. Stephen, and stating that that gentleman's character, professional or otherwise, stood unimpeachcd by that unjust decision. By the Act of the Imperial Legislature, 9th of Geo. IV., cap. 83,:the laws of this colony were declared and regulated, the 24th section thereof enacting, " That all laws and statutes in force within the realm of England at the time of the passing of that Act not being incon sistent therewith, or with any charter or letters patent, or Order of Council, which might be issued in pursu ance thereof, should be applied in the administration of justice in the courts of New South Wales and Van Die men's Land respectively, so far as the same could be applied within the said colonies. Pity it were that the Imperial Legislature did not at the same time declare and enact that all the rules and regulations which moral obligation and common decency suggests and enforces in this country should be maintained and observed at its antipodes. Had such been the case, the colonists of Van Diemen's Land would still have reaped the benefit of Mr. Stephens's unexcelled judgment, ability, and great practical experience, that gentleman and his family would still be in the enjoyment of that ample and honourable independence which was the just reward of his merits and high legal attainments, and of which, by the recent decision of her Majesty in Privy Council, it now lies beyond the reach of controversy to deny that he has been illegally and unjustly deprived. In this country the duties as well as the privileges of those to whom the public confide the conduct and management of their legal affairs are separated and distinctly defined. Not so in the colony of which lam now speaking. There the practitioner is permitted to exercise conjointly the accumulated functions of barrister, solicitor, proctor, attorney, &c., &c. Here no solicitor or attorney ever thinks of usurping the peculiar province of the advocate, there the profes sions are, as it were, thrown into what the lawyers term " hotchpot." Is it not, therefore, an irresistible con ! elusion that Mr. Stephen has become a victim to " the delusion, the mockery, and the snare" of this disgraceful system? And will it not be readily conceded that, e'en suppoging he had been guilty, though pronounced to have been innocent by the unanimous judgment of the Privy Council, tl.at the 23 stem and not the man would have been chiefly answerable for the concequence, nay, rather I would ask, would it not be matter of surprise that any class of men surrounded by the seductions of so vile a system should have maintained the fortitude to reAst contamination? So far forth as the professional character and reputa tion of Mr. Stephen has been assailed by the jud gment so pronoun ce d aga i nst it. He his at length, by in domitable spirit, energy, and perseverance, rescued it from the damning influence of this colonial adjudication, butt whence is he to seek a sufficient reparation for all his mental sufferings and anxiety—for that enormous sacrifice endured (at least to a curtain extent) for a period of nearly five years of that untainted reputation which is the one thing ueeclail in the estimation of every honourably -minded man? Where is be to seek repara -o,in for that pecuniary sacrifice which compelled him and his family to abandon the home of their adoption, with all its surrounding comfolts and affluence, in pursuit of the restoration of that peace of mind, that spotless reputa tion, and that well-earned wealth, through the dangerous and troubled ocean of expensive and protracted liti gation? The relative positions of Mr. Stephen and Sir Eardley Wilmot are strictly parallel. The former con fidently submitted all his hopes as to the restoration of his character to the judgment of the only tribunal com petent to pronounce its re-establishment ; so likewise did the latter, so far as lay within his own power, and in each case the parallel has still been maintained, and the principal objects of each have already been triumphantly achieved. Sir Eardley Wilmot had no means of sub mitting the accusations preferred against him in his official capacity through the medium of the Colonial Se cretary's public dispatch, to the consideration of an appel latejurisdiction; to this extent the breath of the Colonial Minister was omnipotent, but so far as his moral cha racter was assailed by the private letter of the same functionary, he promptly and voluntarily submitted it to the protection of the most competent authority, viz., to that of a tribunal chosen and selected by the Executive Council of the colony as well as to the scrutinising ordeal of public opinion, and from each has he received the confirmation of his most sanguine wishes and expects. tions, testified as it has been, by the voluntary signature of all the good and the virtuous of that community to an address which expresses the high sense which they have at all times felt, and still continued to feel, for his moral character, but still more powerfully testified by the continuance of that friendly intercourse which had never for one moment been suspended or disturbed. Sir Eardley Wilmot, in his private capacity, still continues to reside amongst that community whose esteem and friendship he has so justly earned, awaiting the an nouncement of that retribution which he appears so amply entitled to expect will be accorded to him by the present successor of that moral mirror in which the Co lonial Secretaries for ages yet unborn must henceforth delight to view themselves. He awaits the result in con fident reliance on the irresistible strength of a just cause and the healing influence of that glorious maxim— " Audi alteram partem."—l have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, A Colonist and an Impartial OBSERVER.
