LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 26.

WHY is an English oourt of justice a terror no
leas to them that do well than to the evil-doer ?
Why does every sensitive man and every modest
woman instinctively shrink from entering the wit-
ness-box, with almost as much horror as if it were
the dock t Surely it ought not so to be. It
is a high privilege to be able by honest testimony
to aid in maintaining a rightful cause, and English-
men are not so given to mendacity that they have
usually reason to fear the bringing on themselves
the penalties of perjury. But the explanation
of this strange anomaly is not far to
seek, for it is known to every one of our readers.
It lies simply in the licence accorded by
law and custom to Counsels' tongues. The law
allows the test of cross-examination to elicit the
whole truth, and custom permits its perversion
into an instrument of torture to belie the truth.
Nbto indeed, that all barristers intentionally thus
offend. There are among them hundreds of up-
right and honourable men, with whom, save in so
far as they themselves are misled, a witness is sure
to meet with fair play and respect. But, unhap-
pily, there are also in the profession, and generally
rising, for obvious reasons, to the highest position
in it, many men who have neither honour nor con-
science, and whose sole object is to win their cause,
at whatever cost to justice and humanity. Such
as these may happen Lobe retained in any case, and
they are probably most frequently retained
where the right is clearly on the other side, and
when their instructions can only be an amplifica-
tion of that famous brief which bore, " We have
"no case, but abuse the opposite party." These
instructions at least they faithfully fulfil. Covert
insinuation and open charge of the foulest con-
duct and motives are the weapons with which
they habitually fight. Nor can the Judge always
interpose for the protection of the victims. The
law cannot discriminate beforehand betwixt an
honest and a prevaricating witness, and therefore
it must allow, and the Judge who administers it
must allow, certain questions to be put to
every witness at the discretion of the ex-
amining Counsel. Thus the most horrible
accusations are made, and wounds are inflicted,
which will cease to rankle only with life itself.
And the knowledge that such may be, and daily
is, the treatment to which witnesses are exposed,
is the plain and sufficient reason why everyone is
averse to place himself, or to allow those dear
to him to be placed, in such a situation. In a
less flagrant degree, for the sufferers are not then
lifted up in sight of the multitude to have the
finger of scorn pointed at them, but still to a
grievous and shameful extent, the latitude of ac-
cusation frequently taken by Counsel in their
speeches, operates to deter the injured from seek-
ing a remedy, or to influence the innocent to sub-
mit in silence to an unjust exaction.
What can be done to remedy a state of things
so discreditable? No help, as we have already
said, can be sought in strict rules of law for what
is necessarily committed to the discretion of the
barrister. But if the Judge cannot prevent at the
moment the most flagrant abuse of that discretion,
he has it at least in his power, by sharp and stern
reprimand, to lessen the frequency of its recur-
rence. No barrister, however eminent, likes to
incur the displeasure of the Judge before whom he
pleads, nor will attorneys continue to instruct
counsel to act in a manner which they know will
prejudice the court against them. And therefore
we observe with pleasure a recent instance in
which the eminent Judge who presides over
the Divorce Court administered a significant
rebuke to the line of defence which had been
adopted. The facts of the case were clear and
undisputed. A physician, himself married, availed
himself of his professional position to seduce the
affections of the wife of the Curate of the parish,
and coolly informed the Vicar of the fact, and of
his intention to elope with her, and, after obtain-
ing a double divorce, to marry her. In spite of
the Vicar's astounded remonstranoes he carried

out his plan, all but the divorce from his own
wife, which under the circumstances he of course
will not get. The injured husband, however,
brought a suit for divorce from his wife, and
claimed, as the law permits him to do damages,
from the seducer. This course the seducer's Conn-
eel thought fit to stigmatise as one he ought to
blush to adopt, and he insinuated that his client
was as much the seduced as the seducer. Sir C.

All honour to the Judge who could dare thus
boldly to enforce the claims of common justice
against legal sophistry, and to demand even for a
guilty woman that her character should net be
further degraded for the sake of diminishing legal
damages. But much as the power of the Judges
in such matters is, we may fairly ask whether it
is all that can properly be brought to bear upon
offenders in such a sense. Ought there not in a
profession such as the Bar to be a public opinion
which should work in the same direction and with
even greater force f It is surely not pap-
Bible that such practices should not be
reprobated by opinion, if only it could
find utterance. Nor is it easy to believe that the
really honourable members of the profession
would not eagerly welcome any means by which
so foul a blot could be wiped from their common
name. We invite them earnestly to the conside-
ration of this question. Recent circumstances
have brought the government of the Bar under
review, and perhaps may pave the way to its
reform. But a reform, to be effectual, should be
a thorough purging of the evil elements which now
degrade a noble calling. The Bar of England
ought to stand in popular estimation not as venal
hirelings, but as upright champions. Its members
ought to come between the contending passions of
disputants, and seeing where they are in error or
under prejudice, refuse to lend themselves to
heighten the one or to make triumphant the
other. Such is the lofty view of their true
functions which many in the profession now take,
and which they illustrate by example. What
is wanted is the means of making their principles
known, and of securing their observance on the
part of the less scrupulous. When the means of
so doing are found and adopted, the Bar will stand
in popular esteem and in solid position where it
has never stood yet, for it will cease to bear the
opprobrium of retarding justice, of screening the
guilty at any cost to the innocent, and of struggling
for a victory at any cost of truth.

singular number, unless there be something in the subject
or context repugnant to such construction.
"2. It shall be lawful for any constable or peace officer in
any county, borough, or place in Great Britain and Ireland,
in any highway, street, or public place, to search any per-
son whom he may have good cause to suspect of coming
from any land where he shall have been unlawfully in
search or pursuit of game, and having in his possession any
pine unlawfully obtained, or of having in his possession any
gun, part of gun, or nets or engines used for the killing
or taking game, and also to stop, starch, and detain any

ance, to seize and detain such game, article, or thing ; and

things to be taken, had, and done, and to all persons to be
proceeded against or taking proceedings under this act.

"5. That no conviction or order made ander this act, or

adjudication made on appeal therefrom, shall be queahed
for want of form, or be removed by certiorari or otherwise

into any of her Majesty's superio;ooorte of record ; mud

no warrant of commitment shall be held void by reason of
any defect therein, provided it be therein alleged that the
party has been convicted, and there be a good and valid con-
viction to sustain the same.
" 6. That any person who shall think himself aggrieved by
any such summary conviction may appeal to the next court
of general or quarter sessions which shall be holden not less
than twelve days after the day of such conviction for
the county, riding, division, or borough wherein the
cause of complaint shall have arisen, provided that such
person shall give to the complainant a notice in writing
of such appeal, and of the canoe and matter thereof, within
three days after such conviction, and seven clear days at
the least before such sessions, and shall, within three days,
enter into a recognisance, or bond of caution in Scotland,
with a sufficient surety, before • justice of the peace, con-
ditioned personally to appear at the said sessions, and to
try such appeal, and to abide the judgment of the court
thereupon, and to pay such costs as shall be awarded by the
court ; and the court at such sessions shall hear and deter-
mine the matter of appeal, sod shall make such order
therein, with or without costa, to either party, as to the
court shall seem fit, and shall, if necessary, issue process for
enforcing such judgment."

EIEPLOYNENT OF NEOBOHE IN THE A NKR ICAN WAR.

bility in other atters, declined to assume it in this, and
wrote an official letter to the President, asking him eate-

eth e runaway slaves that
that
they could not be seat back to their owners, as the
law of last July forbade it ; that they could not be al-
lowed to suffer for want of food, for humanity forbade it ;
and that, therefore, the only worse was to employ them
at fair and reasonable wages, at inch work as circumstances
I rendered most advisable. General Lewis Wallace, of
Indiana, after • serenade recently given to him at
Waahington, spoke out more clearly, and asked, "If •
Federal general found the negro before him as he advanced,
planted there by some accident—placed, as it were, in his
path by Providence for • special purpose—and refused
•to make the services of the negro available,
whether such • general would not be asay I"
" If," be added, " I can make my soldiers oomfortable by
the services of a negro ; if, by the services of a band of
negroes I can relieve them of onerous duties and hard work,
shall I not do it Yes' and I will do it." The audience
i cheered the sentiment, though some one called out " Put no
• arms in their hands." And this interruption explains the
real state of the question. The objection to employing the
I negroes is disappearing ; that against arming them remains
in full force, except amen the small class of ultra-
abolitiociste and the strong-minded women of New England.

Dr. Heaver, Chairman of the Memorial Committee,
added some remarks, and expressed a hope that millions
would be refreshed by the fountains now opened.
The Rev. Dr. WILBUR thanked Sir M. Pato in the
name of the vestry, as the contributor of the statue.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then declared the
fountain open, and said he esteemed it a great honour to
be the first person to drink of it, adding that he sincerely
drank all their good heaths. (Loud cheers.) The right
hon. gentleman then suited the action to the word and
Mrs. Gladstone followed his example.
Renewed cheers were given and the ceremony termi-
nated.

NORTH LONDON RAILWAY.—(THIS DAY.)
An interesting event took place this day at the
North London Railway Company's Works, at Bow, on the
occasion of the presentation of plats to Harry Chubb, Req.,
the secretary and manager of the lime, and of the North
and South Western Junction Railway, on his retirement
from that office. The presentation was made in one of the
company's workshops, which was handsomely decorated
with hundreds of plants, flowers, &c., and with
flags of all nations, a band played several appropriate
aim, and the piste was filled with many hundreds
of the company's servants, their families, ko. The testi-
monial consisted of a slyer ep6rgne, tea and coffee service,
and salver bearing s suitable inscription. It was subscribed
for by the officers and servants of the company. The
assembly was presided over by Mr. J. H. Adams.
After the presentation, Mr. Chubb returned thanks in
an appropriate speech. Several gentlemen addressed the
company, and bore testimony to the high reaped enter-
tained by all classes for Mr. Chubb's character, and warmly
congratulated him upon his appointment to the more influen-
tial position he has recently accepted. The proceedings then
terminated. _

Mr. Brook was examined. It appeared that be had signed
the articles of association in the second column, there being
• blank left for the number of shares. The witness said
that it was understood that he should only take shares to
the amount of the paid-up shares which he held in •
Brighton disco= tcompany Which had been amalgamated with
the present company ; but the number " tive" had been put
in without his knowledge.
His Honour said the shareholder might have been im-
posed upon by others, but this would not exempt him horn
Lability. The name must be placed on the list. If the
parties did not like his decision, they might &ppm].
Mr. Daintry, on behalf of Mr. W. Chaim, of West-
borough-green, Horsham, who was returned as a holder of
40 shares, took the objection that he had applied for
shares, had never signed the articles of association or any
other document, had never received any scrip certificates,
and bad never authorised his name to be placed on the
V." Roxburgh produced 'letter of Mr. Challen, in which
be offered to take up `X shares of the 40 which had been
placed to his name.
Mr. Dsintry submitted that the officers of the company
having placed him on the register for 40 shares; the ac-
ceptance of the 20 shares went for nothing.
The Commissioner—l think there is • flaw here. There
is a hole in the bucket. (A laugh.)
Mr. Roxburgh did not think it material, as the shares
were fully paid up.
The Commissioner—l shall put him on the list for twenty
shares.

(The case was prooeeding when we went to preen)

THE POLICE COURTS.
(THIS DAY.)

The 'prisoner, who did not deny this statement, mid un-
feelingly that he had no questions to ask her.
Inspector Webb said that the complainant was a Ter
hard-working woman.
The Chairman said no words he could use would ade-
quately exprees the disgust and abhorrence the bench felt at
the prisoner's ruffianly and brutal conduct. He then sen-
tenced the prisoner to six months' imprisonment with hard
labour, and at the expiration of that sentence he would be
required to fled two sureties in the sum of 201. each, and
himself in 401., to keep the peace for • further term of six
calendar months.

The prisoner, who treated the complainant's bodil► suffer-
ing and mental anguish with great indifference, was then
removed, and the complainant was waisted home by her
friends.

THE LEGISLATIVE GAM CREEPERS. —A measure of
the most profound importance as affecting the moral and
social condition of the working chimes in the rural districts
has been hurried through Parliament, with a most indecent
haste, by the clamour of a noisy and ignorant majority of
sporting squires against the vehement but ineffectual remon-
strances of all the most experienced and prudent politicians
in the House of Commons. One might have hoped that evens
Northamptonshire fox-hunter would have condescended on
such a question as this to listen to the united voices of Sir
G. Grey and Mr. Henley. But a country gentleman, with
a poacher in view, seems to have as little idea of the
reetrictions of law or of justice as a southern planter in
chase of a runaway negro. Accordingly, by a single stroke of
the pen, the whole law of night poaching has been violently
altered without five minutes' consideration. Some provisions
which had been properly madeagainst lawless acts of violence
in the night, have been applied to the comparatively venial
offence of trespass and infringement of the revenue laws. In
short, everything has been lost sight of except the poeible
head of pheasants to be bagged next Christmas ; and this at
a moment when it is hard to know, when Christmas comes,
how millions of Englishmen will be able to get their daily
bread. If the country gentlemen had had in view the single
object of justifying all the malignant libels which Mr.
Bright has ever vented against them, they could not have
acted in a manner more appropriate to secure their end.
The conduct of the House of Commons in the last week
has created • stronger argument in favour of • radical re-
form than can be compiled out of volumes of statistics, or
gathered from the moat logical demonstrations of inequali-
ties of the representative system.—London Review.
NARROW ESCAPE OF THE REV. H. M. VILLIERS
AND THE LADY VICTORIA VR.LICRIA —On Monday after-
noon an accident happened to the Rex. H. M. Villiers and
Lady Victoria Villiers while riding in their pony-phaeton.
The-rev. gentleman was driving to see • sick parishioner,
who resides at a considerable distance from the town,
along the Durham-road, and the poor man's cottage being
a great distance from the highway, they were obliged to
cross several fields in order to reach it. The road through
one of the fields was very rough, being full of ruts, which
were difficult to perceive on account of the long gran with
which they were oovered, and in consequence of this Mr.
Villiers stopped the pony for the purpose of getting out
to lead it, handing the reins to Lady Victoria. While he
was descending, the pony suddenly bounded upwards and
threw him forward, and in a moment started at full gallop
down the hill towards a five-barred gate which stood at the
bottom. Lady Victoria, with great presence of mind, endea-
voured to stay its headlong course, but on arriving at
the bottom of the hill it dashed at the gate near the
top bar, and the pony and phaeton passed through in an
instant, the gate, which was completely smashed, seeming
not to check in the least their impetuous career. Mr.
Villiers followed as fast as possible, aid about forty yards
past the gate found Lady Victoria lying on the ground
somewhat faint, but uninjured beyond • few slight bruisee,
from which she has happily since entirely recovered. The
pony was stopped at the end of the field by the reins get-
ting entangled in the wheel, and was found to be unhurt
beyond a slight cut where it had met the gate, and the
carriage was only slightly injured.—Sunderland Herald.
POPULAR UHARACTERS. —At the Longford assizes
on Thursday, two men, father and son, were tried on the
charge of soliciting to commit murder. The person solicited
was the principal witness. His name is Bryan Young, •
travelling shoemaker. He swore that the prisoners, Wil-
liam Clarke, aged 62, and Pat Clarke, 23, hired him for 1/.
and gave him pistols to shoot a man named Fermi. He
made several attempts, but did not do the job, but he
told old Clarke he did, when the latter prayed that
God might speed him. When under cross-examination be
produced a sensation in court by asserting that he took the
name of Roes, who, he said, was a murderer, in order that
he might receive kind treatment and friendship from the
people, and also by stating that many very decent people
in the county were fond of murderers. Young was cor-
roborated to a considerable extent by Fagan and other
witnesses. The prisoners, however, received • high charac-
ter, and the jury lielitted them.
THZ CASE OF WIFE POISONING IN IRELAND.-
CLITSZEL, THURSDAY.—Baron Deasy solemnly passed sen-
tence of death this morning on Richard Burke, for
the murder of his wife, by the administration of
poison. Prisoner is to be executed on Monday, the 25th
of August, and his body to be buried within the precincts
of the gaol. The judge held out no hope of mercy for the
prisoner, who protested his innocence, declaring his con-
viction that the death of his wife was the result of accident.
He was obliged to be carried from the dock—Dublin
Evening Post.
DEATH IN • BATH AT Se ARBOROUGH. —OD SMUT-
day evening an inquest was held on the death of Mrs. 8.
Allis, • respectable lady, who was a member of the Society
of Friends, and was on a visit to Scarborough. Mrs. Allis
died on Saturday morning, while taking a bath at the Queen
HoteL She was at private lodgings in North Marine-
road, and on Saturday morning, in company with
an attendant, she went to the Queen Hotel,
being near at hand, for the purpose of bathing.
It was her practice to be alone while bathing, and she
would frequently chide her maid for manifesting too
greet solicitude by looking in upon her now and then
when thus engaged. This occurred on Saturday morn-
ing. The attendant looked in and was assured that all
WAS right. She waited a while, and in the interval she
heard a splashing, and shortly after, on again looking
into the bath-room, she found to her horror that Mrs.
Allis had died in the bath. Au alarm was given. and medi-
cal aid at once procured, but without avail. It was the
opinion of the coroner (Mr. &Atop), who is a medical man,
that deceased had fainted in the bath, and slipping down
into the water, was thus drowned. A verdict of " Acci-
dental death " was returned by the jury. Deceased resided
at York, and was 78 years of age.—York Herald.
A MOTHER JUMPING INTO • WELL TO SAVE HER
CHILD. —On Wednesday morning last, George Lock, a child
aged 17 months, was 'sieving with his sister near a well, a
few feet distance from the back door of their mother's house
at Broadwater, Worthing. The child trod on the lid, which
gave way, and precipitated him into the well, af
ter.
The
feet
in depth. and nearly half filled with water. The
sister called out for her mother, who was upstairs.
On hearing that the child was in the well, Mrs.
Lock rushed to its mouth, and saw the child's feet just
beneath the surface (its head beiog downwards). She on-
; mediately jumped after it, and plunging beneath the water
caught the infant by its leg and brought it to the surface.
She then placed her back agninst one side and her feet against
the other side of the well and thus supported herself, whilst
1 with great premium of mid she placed the child on her knees
and patted its back to eject the water from its stomach. A
was thea lowered for the purpose of bringing up the
j child, but as it was not large enough the mother seg.
grated that the tablecloth should be thrown down to her,
Nellol being dm* :.'tile George was safely secured by the
tying of the four toenail loißthort
.fin 4 by mow
rope drawn to the surface. Mrs. a.ucic oodd not brook
to wait with patience until a ladder was brought, but
commenced ascending in the same manner as the chimney-
sweep ascends our dues, viz., by pressing agaiost the sides
with her hack and feet, and raising herself by degrees until
she came within reach of sonic men who had by this time
come to her maistenee. The child was promptly attended
to, when it won fell asleep, and after some time awoke,
apparently none the worse for its recent adventure.—
