AVIEW of the COURT of CHANCERY.
By the Hon. WILLIAM LONG WELLESLEY.

It will be long before the common sense and feelings
of Englishmen will concur in a decision which, besides
being opposed to what are generally considered the na-
tural rights of a parent over his children, has the incurable
vice of being a partial rule of law. The manner in which that
decision was arrived at, is. if possible, still more objectionable.
No man who looks at this subject with the seriousness it deserves,
but must be filled with astonishment that in a country where the
trial by Jury (the ♦ery essence of which is the examination of
witnesses viva voce) has prevailed so long, and where its advan.
tages are so fully appreciated, the expensive, dilatory, and dis-
gusting practice of affidavit-evidence should be left to be the re-
proach of our days.

" The history of Mr. Wellesley's case may be shortly told. The
consummate legal cunning of Lord Eldon laid a trap for him,
into which he was et, ill-advised as to fall. The present Lord
Chancellor, dealing with the case like a ' man of sense and inte-
grity has done al/ that can now be done to extricate him, and
for this he expresses himself warmly and gratefully."—Times.
