for the purpose of nresenting to our late Member a suitable

still more flattering as coming from men of 01 shades of
political opinions, many of whom had been opposed to him."

Minister at Madrid, has arrived in to from Paris. His
Lordship has since left town for the Dowager Lady ilowden's

EVIDENCE IN THE COURT OF CHANCERY.---By one
of the sections in the Chancery Acts, a person who has made
an affidavit in a proceeding is liable to oral cross.examina-
tion and re-examination in the same way as if he had been
orally examined. This provision, it is considered, will tend
greatly to improve the character of titgdayite.
