The following observations ere copied from the

proceedings in Parliament, to such au extent, as to

commentary upon general news. One of the sub-
jects vihich engagol the attention pf the House of
Commons will excilk no snisilldegree of -pain in the

nour, drguity,ood importance, and whose presented
purity ist whitest essential to ensure for their stations
end themselves sentiosents of popular veneration
• and confidenee. We are far from insinusting
that tiny st.etion should cast protection round
emission, or shelter from due attonement con-
eletettsf a criminal or on infamous nature; but we
dp ethane tie. have yet to learn the public beurfit
P• which is to be expected from seeing as able, as
leentedtes pare, asindependeut a Judge as ever sate
vpea tlfie Judgment Sent of any country—as honest
and as amiable a man—arraigned before the great
Councitof the Nation, on account of. the occur-
relict of that fluctuation in the scale of fees, which,
in elf offices whatever, it has been found impossible
to chain down to • heed sod unalterable standard.
There is not in the United Kingdom one of the
'Seeman Courts; the Judges of which have not,
from time to rune, exercised a discretional power
INS to the incresaiiig of fees, or the introducing of
new owes, es titers sbd circumstances may be sup-
posed.to affect the value of official lamer end in-
dustry. Perhaps this power should never have been
visaed in their hands, but whatever irregularity
may arise from out of the exercise of it, rather re.
Beets upon the system of remunerating officen by
fees, than upon the individuals who may overrate
the rewards of themselves or their assistants. Dur-
ing she discussion on the Irish Law Courts Bill, the
Lead Chancellor of Englaud and Lord Redes-
dale defended the practice of charging fees in
preferenee to requite! by salary ; and if the Learned
mid. excellent person who has been, with so little
deferenee for his unsullied judicial honour, and
so little reverence fur his exalted station, dragged
to the bet of the Commons,' even should have nes-
calculeted in the requissUon of the fees which be
was authorised to apply in remuneration of himself
and the officers of his Court, that fact is to be proved
upon some more unerring grounds than the discord-
snobs of opinion which prevail respecting flit quan-
tum; and even though the objectors to thee/eon:inn
should have the most reasonable side of the argu-
ment, yet it does not follow that those with whom
they disagree ere proper objects of public ineul pa-
tion and punishment. If a man's own judgment be
the standard of remuneration, it esn hardly be con-
sidered a criminal offence that he should entertain
a difeneat opianou upon that head from others; and,
prrhope, some of these who appear rather over-will-
nig to crimitiale the hotiourable men who so ably
tills the office of Chief Baron of the Exchequer in
Ireland, are uricersciously misled, while they ate
etideuvouring to visit dm vices of • system, of which
