THE SUN.
LONDON, S ATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1862.

Again leave has been granted to bring in a bill
for the appropriation of so much of the Suitors'
Funds as may be in any way requisite for defray-
ing the expenses of constructing a Palace of Justice.
A similar measure was introduced last year in the
House of Commons, and passed through the preli-
minary stages required to be traversed by every
new bill on its progress towards development into a
ripened enactment.
The interposition of the Legislature in the
matter of the application of the Suitors' Funds to
the construction of this long-projected Palace of
Justice was, in point of fact, only postponed until
another session by the expiring of the last,
before the measure could be duly perfected
into an Act of Parliament. The Chief Commis-
sioner is, consequently, taking up afresh one of his
half finished labours, when he again asked leave
yesterday to bring in the bill we have here par-
ticularised. After a discursive conversation among
various members, the leave so asked was almost as
a matter of course immediately granted. Without
any serious demur being made by any one, a
momentary effort to nip the project in the bud was
adventured upon, happily in vain, by the simple
devise of moving that the House be counted. That
effort proving a failure, the desultory talk which
had been commenced was continued to its close,
and permission for the introduction, we may say
more, strictly speaking, the reintroduction of the
measure, granted accordingly. Beginning the good
work thus before Faster, Mr. COWPER we may now
reasonably hope will have at length, in 1862, have
begun it in real earnest. There is but little proba-
bility that the promoters of the undertaking will
be once more baulked in their endeavours by a
lack of time before the next prorogation of the
two Houses of the Legislature. In reality, there
is no substantial opposition of any kind what-
soever to the carrying out of the designed im-
provement. The advisability of concentrating the
now scattered law courts under one roof tree
in London, as has long since been done under
the clustered domes of the Four Courts
in Dublin—and as, in truth, has been done
upon a grander or a lesser scale in most
oevery one
great capitals of Christendom—almost
one who has hitherto spoken or written upon
this matter
recognised. has
ifsrtorinib tit theedfiurss t inrsltaa,isn,telllouorsttsCnordowifialrlye
in various parts of this
vast metropolis, a metropolis
composed at its very nucleus of the twin cities of
London and Westminster the various administra•
tors of the law, the judges,
e barristers, the soli-
citors, and their clients, with all the motley con-
course of subordinate officers and witnesses, are
virtually put to the utmost inconvenience—at the

same time ~ that the dignity of the courts
themselves can be in no way adequately
secured, or the majesty of the law ade-
quately housed in a structure of appropriate mag-
nificence. By the simple device of bringing the
whole of the law Courts permanently together upon
a single site, the Chief Commissioner says, and says
with obvious reason, that a signal Law Reform will
thereby be at once accomplished. Time will be
saved—time, which proverbially with a mercantile
race like ours, is "money "—" time, which in law
is really and truly often and often, so to speak,
" everything." The site is already mapped
out. The Funds are already at com-
mand of the Legislature. The bill is actually
drawn up and arranged. The Government are
formally and reiteratedly pledged to the realisation
of this alluring and perfectly feasible enterprise.
Success, we earnestly trust, will attend the measure
throughout its various stages to the close—until
the Legislature has willed, before the completion of
the present session of Parliament, that out of the
chaos of our dark, and narrow, and often almost
squalid, law courts there may rise a Palace of
Justice worthy of sheltering within it the majesty
of the Laws of England.

What remains of European trade with America
seems destined to another check, and that, too, from
a clause in the Act of Congress creating the
£30,000,000 of inconvertible paper money, which
appears to have been inserted from honest motives.
The Senate resolved that the interest of the Federal
Debt should be paid in gold. Foreigners who hold
stock in it will be pleased that their claims are thus
placed beyond the possibility of dispute, and that
they cannot be told that if they invest in United
States stocks, they must share the treatment of
United States citizens, although that might mean
that they were to take Federal assignats. All State
creditors at home and abroad are to be paid in specie.
This, however, necessitated the States' obtaining
the specie before it could pay it—accordingly, the
Customs are required to be paid not in inconverti-
ble paper, but in that universally convertible article,
gold. Now, as gold had already reached 5 per cent.
premium, this is equivalent to at once adding five
per cent. to the already extravagant duties of the
MORRILL tariff. But, worse than that, suppose
through any great reverse of the Federal arms, or
through larger issues of paper, gold should rise
rapidly to ten, fifteen, five-and-twenty per cent.
premium, after the orders to Europe had left
America, and before the goods arrived, obviously
the importer might be almost ruined by the adverse
effect on the sale of his article. At present all looks
bright for the Federals ; thirty days, or three
times thirty, at longest, are to bring JEFFERSON
DATIS to the scaffold, unless he have previously
shipped himself off for Europe ; but mercan-
tile men, while they may illuminate their
houses on the strength of their hopes, will like to
be a little more sure before they send out their
orders. If success continues, the thirty millions of
paper will be no more than the internal trade of
the States requires, and will be absorbed with ease.
Indeed the States will be an example to us of the
advantage with which we might also cancel thirty
millions of national debt, with loss to no one but
the monopolists of Threadneedle-street.
It is, indeed, surprising how completely the late
successes seem to have assured the North that it is
all up with the rebellion. They ought to know
better than we, and they seem to be quite confident
that in a short time the South will entirely collapse.
All their discussions are now on what they shall do
in a Restored Union ; or, whether the Union can
be restored in its old form. Some are advising to
declare the South altogether territory ; and then
to admit it as States again under such new con-
ditions as the North may think safe. This opinion
has even been laid in regular form before Congress.
But how can any one expect that Mr. LINCOLN
would entertain such a proposition for a moment ?
He will adhere to the Constitution through thick
and thin ; and no power exists in the present Half
Congress which sits at Washington to legislate for
all the States of the old Union. Indeed, any act of
the kind would require the assent of all the States
of that Union.

Many now foresee that the South, if restored on
the Constitutional terms of the Union, will still be
more than a match for the North. By allying
itself again with the Democratic party there it may
even elect its own President. And, in the Senate
by the number of the States; and in the House of
Representatives, in virtue of representing three-
fifths of their slaves, the South will be so powerful
that it may by gaining only a few Northern repre-
sentatives, control almost everything. This is the
danger naturally feared by the advocates of negro
liberty. They see that the South will still have the
power, if it has the address to use it, and in politi-
cal skill the South has always been pre-eminent--to
strengthen rather than to weaken its hold on
slavery. Hence many are beginning to look to
gradual and social causes, when slavery is confined
within its present limits, for its ultimate extinction.
They especially rely on the extraordinarily rapid
exhaustion of the richer parts of the soul by slavery ;
and hence predict that slavery will expire from
want of land suitable for its existence. Only
the energy and skill of freemen, we are told,
can till the greater part of the land in the Slave
States themselves. Hence slaves are to become
freemen because, as slaves, they would ruin their
masters.

The predominant feeling of the North since their
success, is, so far as we can judge by their press
and their public men, to get all things round as
quickly and quietly as possible to the old constitu-
tional position. At the same time there are not
wanting prophets who predict that the South will
fight till it secures for itself a larger or a smaller
separate Confederation of Slave States. We are
not inclined to prophecy, but we certainly see no
reason to alter the opinion that the South can hold
out for a very long time, if it will but submit to
severe privations for separate existence.

The amount of fatality and suffering which
occurs in a civilised community from preventable
causes, is always a matter of deep regret. The
unavoidable risks of some professions, the insidious
dangers which lurk in some trades are greatly to
be lamented when they carry off brave and labo-
rious men ; but thesorrow occasioned by an untimely
or disastrous death, a crippled limb, or a hopelessly
injured frame, is doubled by the reflection that such
catastrophes might have been avoided by the use of
due precautions. It is but very recently that a ter-
rible accident, which might have been considerably
mitigated under other arrangements, lads depopu-
lated a v:llage, and aroused the interest and sym-
pathy of all the nation, from the palace to the
cottage. Bat thousands of such deaths take place
in our busy mines without attracting much atten-
tion, resulting from the culpable indifference of the
masters or the reckless carelfssness of the men.
Who knows the number of lives lost at sea which a
harbour of refuge on an e:zposed coast, a neigh-

saved ?
How many have paid with their lives for
their adherence to a dangerous and preposterous'
