Tan LAW or EnDEREE.—By order of the House
of Lords, a bill bas just been
and
fee farther wasting
the law touching evident.* and prouder*. Boise important
alterations are contemplated by the aseasews. It proposes
that husbands and wives shall be competent sad compel(- I
able to give evidence. It has been decided by the superior
courts that under the late act relating to evidence a
wife is not an admirable wither. The only exceptions to
he Wow. d are in criminal and adultery caw. Further
it is declared that " no huband shall be compellable to die-
dose any communication made to him by his wife during
the marriage, and no wife shall be compellable to dieclose
any communication made to her by her husband daring
the marriage." It would seem that the party to an ashes
for a breach of promise of marriage, hitherto prohibited, is
allowed to give evidence. There are several provisions as
to payment of money late court, the examinations of certain
parties, and the asheisaies of haadwriting. Certain uses
may be tried at Dili pries without a jury, velem required.
lAnother point in the bill is, that ybe court before whom •
prisoner is tried and acquitted, may order his costs to be
paid; and further, the crown is tom:tire and pay coetslike
ordinary suitors.
FREE TRADE AND PROTECTION.—What has beool3lo
of our poor's coal fund., our charitable soutskiteloss, our
distributions of breed ? How is it that we have not our
towns divided into districts, and each district caavessed by
earnest sod anxious tradesmen, that a few
collected for the comfort of the peer at =II=
season of the year ?" This used to be an awed eaten is
times of protection, and yet under tole trade soothing of the
kind is ever thought of. Where see the champions of pro-
tection to be found to fret the poor this frent the dragon of
hie trade. If free trade has date what they say it ham,
or what they prophesied it would, *sir duty Is to double
their exertions for these coal fustia, and these seep-kit-
lAMB, and these distributions of breed. Have Wu elm'.

minished ? Have w become careless of those whom pro.
'thence has less favoured then ourselves ? No, rash is o.*
tits ease ; but the fact is, whatever obese prottedea wawa
may any to the contrary, the people do not wet only
moistener, and casts of real pinching want, if set
they vanished, ere of rare occurrence. 83 much, thetii :
free trade, which, amongst other th;ngs, was to starve the
Ithroorer.—Beeks Adverttser.
