It has often been • subject of regret that there

leslauates that the British government have advanced a

With respect to the preset domes& what Groat

that England cannot be liable for injuries committed
beyond her jurisdiction by either of the parties
to the late Transatlantic war. Throughout that

sive of our dignity as an independent nation. The proposal
of the commission is not referred to by the Telegraph.

traesfer say eqnitable readies in the county courts to
the Oran of Chancery. But the experiment which is about
to be math' is interesting in another point of view.
The majority of the manly mart judger are as little sr
eustomed to deal with principles of equity as the justices
of the bench or the herons of the exchequer. The machinery
of the one set of eourts is se little adapted to the angels-
, trollop and disteihntion of property ss the machinery is the
ether set of courts. But if the simple thaws made is the
county courts enable them to examine the powers of the
Court of Chancery, there is no reason why similar changes
should not enable the courts at Wesbniester to exercise
equitable jurisdiction, and the Coat of Charmer? to
exacise common law jurladicitoo. If this could be wow
phased, the fusion of law and equity would be soldered.

The compact by which Penedo is said to have bought from

that have most powerfully balsawood the mossy
market. No • soosomioal principle is more fully
established than the fact that the rate of profit really
rules the rate of interest. If is late years the rate of
