LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Mar 92.
This being the first day of Trinity Term the Lord
Chancellor did not take his seat in the Court at West-
minster till nearly two o'clock, in consequence of having to
entertain the Judges, Masters in Chancery, and Queen's
Counsel, to a breakfast, at his Lordship's house, in Bru-
ton•street. The Lord Chancellor, on taking his seat,
MU accompanied by the Master of the Rolls, the Vice-
Chancellor, and Masters Wingfield and Lynch. His
Lordship was occupied up to the rising of the Court with
appeal motions of no public interest.

MEYSIOTT V. TIIE rooft-LAW GUARDIANS or ST. GROEGeb,

SJUTHWARK.

The ATTORNEY- GENERAL moved fora rule, calling on
the Poor-law Guardians of the parish of St. George's,
Southwark, to show cause why a mandamus should not
issue, calling upon them to produce their books and ac-
counts to Mr.
Meymott, in order that he might audit them.
It appeared that Mr. Meymott had been elected auditor of
the Union by the Guardians, in conformity with the pro-
visions of the Poor-law Act, and that the Poor-law Com-
missioners bad fixed his salary at 751. a year ; but that
after his salary had been so fixed, the Guardians refu.ed to
allow him to enter on the duties of his office unless he
would consent to a reduction of his salary.
The COURT granted a rule nisi.

ADDRESSES TO THE QUEEN.

CARRICK-ON-SUIR, MAY 17.—A requisition is in
progress of signature here, calling a public meeting on
Sunday to address our beloved Queen on the intelli-
gence, firmness, and wisdom she has recently so signally
displayed in maiutaining her Royal Prerogative against
the audacious, unparalleled, and unconstitutional at-
tempt lately made by the Tory faction to assume the
absolute right of dictating and controlling all the ar-
rangements of her Majesty's Household, in a manner
repugnant to her Majesty's feelings, and utterly con-
trary to all usage. The requisition is being numerously
and most respectably signed, and we have no hesitation
in asserting the meeting will be attended in a manner
befitting the importance and high interest of the occa-
sion.—Waterford chronicle.
DUBLIN.—A meeting of the Reform Committee was
held at their rooms, in Westminster-street, on Monday,
when preliminary measures were taken for the holding
of a meeting of the inhabitants of the county and city.
of Duhlin, at Beresford-place, on Thursday next. Lord
Charlemont, it is expected, will take the chair on the
occasion.

ADDRESS TO TEE QUEEN.—Our worthy and spirited
Chief Magistrate has most promptly complied with the
respectable requisition presented to him, and convened
a meeting for Wednesday (yesterday) to address the
Queen, thanking her Majesty for the noble stand made
by her against the attempt of Sir Robert Peel to sur-
round the throne with the creatures of Toryism, and to
pray her Majesty to call to her assistance such advisers
only as will insure to the nation those benefits it was
anticipated would ensue from the Reform Act, but
which, owing to the great defect of that measure, have
not been realized.—Hull Observer.
POPULAR ENTHUSlASM.—lnnumerable communica-
tions from every part of the country continue to pour
in on us, assuring us that the joy of the people, on learn-
ing that Peel and his tyrannical faction had been hurled
from power in the very moment of their anticipated
triumph, was irrepressible and unbounded. In no por-
tion of the kingdom was this feeling more strikingly
manifested than in the ancient and loyal town of Drog-
heda—a town which, more perhaps than any other in
the empire, has suffered from the evil effects of Tory
monopoly and ntisrule.—Pilot.

BONFIRIS.—NiAt Friday, the 24th instant, will be
the anniversary of the birth of our gracious and ad-
mirable Queen. Dublin will illuminate, and so, we
should hope, will every town and village in Ireland. A
great addition to the general effect would be a bonfire
on every hill from the Giant's Causeway to Cape Clear,
and from Connemara to the Hill of Howtb. Let there
be this double manifestation of unaffected joy through
the length and breadth of our native land. It will be
pleasant to hear of it even within the irons of a dungeon !
—Pilot.

MR. S. O'BRIEN AND HIS CONSTITUENTS.--The
Rev. T. O'B. Costello has called a meeting of the
Liberal Club of Limerick county for Tuesday, to
take into consideration the vote of Mr. Smith
O'Brien. on the oceasion of the Jamaica division, and
his explanatory letter to the constituency. The Li-
merick Chronicle, of Saturday states that the Rev. Mr.
Costello is prepared to nominate the Hon. Mr. Lawless,
son of Lord Cloncurry, to succeed Mr. O'Brien in the
event of the electors calling upon him to resign. We
ourselves are aware that Lord Cloncurry is a proprietor
of considerable estates in that county, and that there, as
elsewhere, he is an excllent landlord.—Pilot.
Sin JAMES GRAHAM'S " SHABBY MINISTRY" STILL
IN OFFICE,—Of her Majesty Queen Victoria, " the rose
and expectancy of our fair state," it may be truly said
that she has added, in the moral sense of the expres-
sion, a cubit and more to her stature within the last
few days. In all circles not tabooed by the spirit of
Toryism, even the casual mention of her name excites
feelings of the liveliest enthusiasm ; and already public
meetings have been held, and addresses voted, approba-
tory of her late spirited conduct, in Edinburgh, Liver-
pool, Bristol, Briaton, Newcastle, Belfast, Waterford,
Worcester, Sheffield, Dublin, and a whole host of other
places. One public meeting leads to another, just as
circles emanate from a centre when a stone is thrown
into the bosom of the stream, and if the spirit at present
abroad prove even half as infectious in the end as it has
been in the beginning the movement made in favour of
the Queen and her rights, feminine rather than royal,
will be unparalleled, we rather think, in British history.
So much promptitude and decision in one so young, are
wielding spells of growing fascination, and as often as the
public obtain a glimpse of the Royal person, her recep-
tion is to the full as fervently enthusiastic as it was on
the day of the Coronation. Nor are there wanting
" sympathisers" in the more chivalrous ranks of the
Conservatives themselves. Many of the supporters of
Sir R. Peel admit that he demanded more than Royalty
had any right to grant, was over fastidious, and went
too far in his taxation exactions ; or, in other words,
attempted to establish an unreasonably rigid system of
surveillance as to such as domicile in the abodes of
Royalty.—Dumfries Courier.
" To the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty.
" The humble address of the Loyal and Patriotic As-
sociation, and other inhabitants of Deal, Walmer, and
their neighbourhoods.

" We your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects avail
ourselves of the earliest opportunity of approachirg
your Majesty, with feelings of sincere devotion, and re-
spectfully offer to your Majesty our warmest thanks and
gratitude for the admirable firmness your Majesty has
dispLyed in resisting the unwarrantable demands of a
party, who in the exercise of their principles, regardless
of your Majesty's prerogative and domestic happiness,
would impose upon your Majei,ty restraints adverse to
the clearest ties of our nature, and derogatory to the
dignity of the Throne.

" That your Majesty has spurned these demands we
rejoice ; and in the recal of Liberal advises to the
administration of affairs, your MekVsty has again given
proof of attachment to the best interests of the empire,
which cannot fail to excite the gratitude of the people,
and to convince your Majesty that the safest security of
a Crown is not in the interest of the few, but in the love
and devotion of the many.
" We, y our Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects are
sensible that no attempt will be made by the Crown to
infringe upon the rights and privileges of the people,
their only apprehension arises froma section of the Aris-
tocracy encroaching upon both.

.‘ We respectfully implore your Majesty will be gra-
ciously pleased to continue in your Councils such men
as will uphold the dignity of the Crown, its rights and
prerogatives, and who will carry into effect safe and pro-
gressive reforms in all our institutions, to the promotion
of peace and prosperity throughout the British domi-
nions, and which will rivet still stronger the attachment
and devotion of a loyal people to your Majesty's person
and Government."
