carelessness as to the event of the cases in which the counsel
were retained, end the solicitors were bound in justice to the
public, and fur the sake of their own reputation, to interfere
for the prevention of practice which aggravated the burdens of
the law, by creating expense which in many inaleneee was sot
recompensed by a single croft. It was notorious that leading
counsel walked from one wort to the other, and kept the feet
they received is oases which were going on at the ammo mo-
ment in both Colds ; it being an e•dablished principle with
them norr to vetnru a fee, to whatever motive their ab
from the court is which their attendance might be of vital im-
portance to suitors should be attribotAhle. It became necessary,
therefore, to adopt amass of remedying incoaveniesee and vex-
ations of this descriptioa, for the purpose of accomplishing
which the assistance of all solicitors whose practice compre-
hended the Chancery court was necessary. Ceder such cir-
cumstances. the meunre which suggested itself as most ad-
visable, was the appointment of a committee to consider the
propriety of securing jetties to their clients by employing
those gentlemen of the bar only who would antral strictly to
the business placed in their hands, and who were determined
not to divide (heir attention between the court*, is each a man-
ner as to give cause of complaint to those whose interests de-
pended so much upon the *alert and care of the advocate.
Resolutions to this effect were immediately agreed to.
The committee will soon report to • general meeting of this
solicitors.
ele- It ought to be stated in •dditioa to the shove ♦eport,
that this Law Society had directed their Prolocutor to write to
all the Charmer, Cortese! within the Bar, respectfully request-
ing their commerce,* in some arrangement which might obviate
1 the evil complained of. and that those gentlemen treated the
communicatioa with sileat contempt, although solicited for an
answer he • illsoond letter. To this observation three excep-
tions must be made, is the mimes of Messes. C•lleu, Shadwell,
and Ronblaaqs. The two ficetucksowledged the propriety of the
application by positively elating their determination each to
adhere to one Court, unless trader any peculiar eireernetances.
Mr. Fonblanque in kiereply asserted his opinion that the riysily
of the Bar would be compromised bosabmiaeion to any errange-
-1 meot•whatever with the Solicitors !!!—lt is but justice to add
that Mr. Roll, coovinoed of the impossibility of an honest dis-
charge of duty is two Courts at the same time, has long since
hosourahly relhegaisbed his immeeme practice in the Lord
Manville?' Cant, sad pleads only in that of Vice Chancellor..

PIRACY.
(EXTRACT OF A LETTIR FROM THIS AGEPTIS TO 1.1.01 el
AT lIATANNAH, DATED DSC. lb.
" Since our last communication, the following instances of
piracy have been Wade known to as upon unquestionable an-
tkority French ship Aksaailor, of Bourdeaus, from
Vera Crazoto toads at this port, with a valuable cargo, consist,
ing of cochineal, indigo, and specie, was bearded of Bible
Honda, robbed of her cargo, and disabled in ber Mali', for Inc
purpose of preventing her reaching this port, in consequence of
which she Lure away for New Orleans, where she has arrived
is the greatest mistress. The schooner Rariating, of and from
New Orleans, bound here, was also captured, the crew mal-
t rested, and the cargo plundered, As appears by the Captain's
protests, bath depredations were committed by a long low
schooner, with one gun amidshipsomad a crew of 70 men, sop-
posed to•kes the same vessel which sailed from Ibis pert clan-
destinely • few weeks ago. The schooner Beams, of Massa-
chusetts, on her voyage from Honduras to that port, was also
lately hoarded off Cape Corium*, by an open canoe, with 20
armed men, who robbed ber of speaks, turtle, provision, and
nese the clothing of the crew, which obliged her le put into this
port in distress; and lastly, the-British brig Moo aratarti,
arrived yesterday from Sts Thomas's, was abased for the space
o' three boons off Cape Antonio, by a suspicious schooner, and
escaped with.great difficulty.
" From the same place, Dee Bth, the commander of the-
British -Imo:draw seat in the Grecian cuter to the peels of Ma •
tames tesprocare pilots, bat none would go spew any • terms ;
the lives of any who would barwettgaged would most assuredly
have been taken on their return, such is the audacity of these
villains and their coadjutors on shore : 14 of the wretches are
now parading the streets of Matanzas who are known to have
been on board the vessel captured by the American ship
Alligator, but escaped. The squadron should bare called at
N sssss and obtained pilots.
KIUGSTON, (Jamaica), Noe. 23.—The Creole, Johnson,
from Pedro Shoals and Lucia, which arrived here on the 21st
inst was boarded while at anchor on the Pedro Shoals by a
Sim Mk privateer schooner, and plundered of every article they
cold lay their bands on. They had taken as Aniericau
schooner from San Andreas, hound to New York, sod robbed
her of bee cargo, to the value or 2,000 dollars. The Spanish
schooner Jalapa', from Havannab to St. Jago de Cuba, was
captured by the Patriot privateer schooner General Moslilta,
and both were taken by the lipperiun frigatet and seat to this
