DAILY
Extracts from the•Morntnr, Papers, June 2, 1 825

[NEW TJMES.I
In adverting to the debate, of Tuesday on the
':rtelafys in Chancery, we feel ourselves,consider-
ltbli at a loss, for want of that accurate and
rusinute information, which nothing but long -ex-
perience in the practice of the Court cap supply.
The complaining, party has a great advantage in
.trat respect.- Ile may throw out his insinuations
at random ; for it is a part of his alleged grievance
that he doe's not kn'oW frOM whence his suffering
proceeds., He may, therefore, blame the law,
the process, the Judge, and the practitioner, in..
discriminately ; but the person who has to re-
pel these attacks must know precisely in what
particulars, and to what extent, they are errone-
ous. lie. must be able to disentangle the real evil,
f -such'there be, from the erroneous concep-
tjori ;of its cause, and to show whether it be
_susceptible of remedy by the means sug-
,gested, or•whether, if adopted, they would not
aggravate the inconvenience. The 44 Law's De-
Illay" was a proverbial subject of complaint, at
-least so-early as the time of Shakspeare ; and we
11-are:far from denying that h is an evil peculiarly
ssfelt in the Court of Chancery. Means, we trust,
I will be found to palliate that evil. But let us
• hot deceive ourselves with the vain belief that it
can be eradicated. Equity cannot always be
combined with expedition. The most expe-
ditious tribunals are those of a despotic power,
whether in the hands of a tyrant or of a mob.
In a free country, the rights of individuals are
enced round with so many legal bulwarks, that
often bt•comes a work of time and labour to
bring a very simple question to issue. But then it
must be remembered that if no :aid) protection
existed, the weak would be at the merry of the
powerful : and the simple would become a a prey to
the designing. Legislators and Magistrates are con-
tinually devising new modes of guarding against
fraud and violence, until at last the task of defence
becomes' wearisome and oppressive to the party
tchom it was meant to serve. These considerations
shew the necessity of revising the legal system
from time to. time, as has recently been done,
. with so much ability, by Mr. Peel, in respect to
the Jury Laws. The laws of the Customs and
Excise have, in like manner, been-consolidated;
. the Scotch-Judicatures are undergoing a similar
reform ; and, lastly, a Commission has been for
nearly a twelvemonth employed in devising
meliorations of the practice of the Court of Chan-
cery; It is rather premature to assume, that
this Commission will- do no good. Its Mem-
-liers are all 'Men of grcat talent and unimpeach-
able integrity, amt
.they comprise. individuals
of different political parties. They do not choose
to make a -hasty report ; they have examined
a great number of witnesses ; and it -is fairly
to be presumed,. that- their suggestions will be the
more valuable, in proportion to the care and de-
liberation with which they are formed. As to
the personal imputations thrown on the Lord
Chancellor, they are to be -despised. That
Noble and Learned Judge may rest the fabric of
his fame on a greater number of recorded judg-
ments than perhaps were ever before deliver.
ed by any one. individual. Ile has decided on
rights of property to an. amount almost incre-
dible ; and': those deCisions involve a mass of
legal know ledge perfectly unparalleled. No-
body presumfs to hint that a single one of them
is tainted, in the slightest degree, with corral),
tion ; and the only thing alleged against any of
them is, that in some cases they have not been
delivered quite so soanThasrthe litigating parties
could have wished. When we deduct from the
delays in Chancery that which is owing to the
parties theinseives, and that which is inherent in
the practice of the Court, only a small part will
remain-chargeable on the Lord Chancellor ; and
that part may be coßsidered as a tax (a very light
one. indeed) -paid for obtaining the deliberate
wisdOre of a great and enlightened mind.

The, details of the coronation of Charles X.
which we this day ex tract from the French
Papers, were ie substance- anticipated by the
articles we published on that subject on:Monday
and Tuesday. Some-parts of the kolernnity have
necessarily-been modified _in consequence of the
introduction of the representatis.;e system info the
French Government. In the 'King's oath it will
be observed that he swears expressly to maintain
the constitutional c'haite}. is a wise -and
liberal concession to public feeling. The studied
omission of the word « charter" in the first
speech of Charles X. from the throne, and the
substitution of the phrase institutions," ex-
cited much alarm and disgust among the people
of France, who regarded this proceeding' as an
indirect refusal, on the
.part of. the new Sove-
reign, to ri.ro2nize and.cOefirm .the.gsant of his
predecessor.. 'The solemn p;ed.ge which the King
haS now gifii'adrniiiiif doubt and we , hope,
therefore,_ that,th distrusLand apprehension of.
hiA-Silhjects It is cerkiin, from all
the. letters we have lately received from France,
that the ympulatity of hiS-.-Most Christian Ma-
jesty is sink, linost to the lowest degree.—His
bigoted deVotion to the Priests. has rendered him
peculiarly disliked. The. law •of sacrilege has
filled up the measure of public aversion. The in-
demnity to the padg. ri; nts also, contributed largely
to prOduce-the same result. Under these circum-
stanc,es, the Coronation 'has been treated with
great indifference;, by a nation excessively.fond
of pageants. and spectacles. The battle has
been • confined., to the foreizners, and es,
pvcially the. English, who • have. flocked in
great numbers. to the -vicinity of Itheims.
The French.th,egiselves have.taken pains (0 avoid
alyearing,deliglited, or even interested. Soule
minor causes., we understand, -have also operated
forcibly against the favourabie. reception of the
ceremony. In the•first pLere,• all,France---that
is to say, Paris, which includes all that. is politi-
cally active or powerful in-France--is ofopinion
that the. coronation should have taken place..in
thecapital, under the eyes,. as it were,-of the
whole land, itistvad of .being trvisarcte4 Alt
Rheims, where few could witness it.—" France,

is now," say the malcontents, 44 a Constitutional
Monarchy, and there is no propriety in con-
tinuing the ceremony at Rheims, ,because, under
another order of things, it pleased oar abso-
lute Monarchs to be' consecrated there. 7 The
ceremony itself, 'we are informed by a corre-
spondent, was mdch inferior in pomp and splendor
to the coronation of George IV. The latter was
a gorgeous display of unparalleled wealth and
magnificence. The numerous attendance of
Peers, High Dignitaries, and Great Officers of
State, had an admirable effect at Westminster,
Which was ill imitated at Rheims, by the scanty
deputations from the Chambers, and the Ministers
in immediate dependency upon the Crown.

[TUE PUBLIC LEDGER.]
The Paris Papers, which arrived last night,
are occupied, almost to the exclusion of other
matter, with the details of the Coronation. As
these ceremonies have been perverted from their
original purpose into hollow and heartless pa-
geants, where even the religious part is still re-
tained merely for spew, we shall spare the reader
the infliction of going with him through the de-
tails. Und'er thehead " Shores of the Mediter.
ranean," these Journals contain the report of
another triumph in the Morea over the Egyp-
tians. It is stated to have been brought by a ves-
sel from Corfu, which she left on the 27th of
April ; but it is much too vague in its present
form to lay claim to impiieit credit. It is pro-
bably the mere echo of an earlier account, or it
may relate to some partial action, such as occurs
daily when two armies ace in the presence of one
another. In the mean time; it is placed, in our
epinion, beyond the least doubt,. that the Greeks
have obtained some very considerable advantage
over I brahim Paella ; whilst we think it likely
enough, that this single exploit has been multi-
plied by the zeal of their friends at Trieste and
elsewhere, into as many triumphs as there have
been arrivals since then from any of the lonian
Islands. But, as we said before, the Egyptians
appear to have sustained some very considerable
reverse ; though the enact time and place, toge-
ther with the amount of their loss,are not so well
ascertained as we could wish.

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]
Were we to find any fault with Mr. Brougham's
character of the Lord Chancellor, in the debate
of Tuesday, we should say, that it .was, ,in one
• place, more complimentary than just to his Lord-
ship. ." If I were a Judge," said Mr. Brougham,
" in any other Court but his own (there he might
shelter me with his protection); but were 'I a
Judge in any other Court in England, Ireland,
or Scot land, I. could not name the man by whom
should less like to be scrutinized.- No man living
would 'be less disposed to spare the faults of
others, or more firmly determined to deal
out even-handed ju-z:ice -towards the lapses
of other institutions," &e. &c.—What evidence
of this determination to deal out even-handed
justice towards the lapses of other insti-
tutions has appeared durink the long, long,
course of the Chancellor's career; and in what

instance. has he shewn himself little disposed
to spare the fault of any creature in autho-
rity Mr. Brougham, would -.not like, he says,
to be a Judge in ,any Court (Chancery ex-
cepted) in England, Ireland, or Scotland, un-
der the Chancellor's scrutiny ; to Mr. Brougham
this scrutiny might, we•,aJlow, 'be not of the
most friendly description; but has the Chancel,
lor's scrutiny been found by any. means severe
by a very different sort of character, Mr. Ken-
drick, who is a. Welch Judge, or has Lord
Eldon discovered, himself little• di,sposed to
spare that Gentleman's faults ? Mr. Brougham
remarks, that.. the
.Chancellor might, in-
deed, shelter a Judge in •his own Court, with
his protection ; it is unlucky enough, however,
that the Vice-Chancellor is the, only Judge in
the kingdom, who- ever falls under the Lord
Chancellor's sarcasm. As for tine Chancellor's
'even-handed justice towards the lapses of other
Institutions, we have only to look •at the state of
the Magistracy for years past, for atvanswer to
this proposition ; there have been lapses enough
there, heaven knows, and ,we may look in vain
for the evßn-handed justice, which should have
corrected the slips in this quarter. We are in-
clined. to think that Mr. Brougham is mistaken
as to points. above (noted ; a severe intolerance of
error in authority is not to be numbered among
the Chancellor's failings. .

[MORNING HERALD.]
On Monday night Sir F. Burdett made a speech
on the folly of voting large sums of money fOr the
education of children. Ile.said as much as,that
it was the way to ruin them. Certainly nothing
could be more unfortunate for the children in
question than for them, so.early in life, 'fo have
a notion instilled into them, that an establish-
merit for their education of 6,000/. a year was
necessary. Mr. Hume said' that 1001. a year
would secure them better education ; Mr. Hume
may ,be much tinder the' mark. In .private
life it is well known that the most expensive
schools are the worst: i Let aman receive from
:I n expensive school` a son
ors a daughter, and
he will find that after they have heen at home a
little time, he will scarcely be able to' know
what to do with them.' The greater expellee be-1
stowed on the education of children, the greater,
in general, is their arroganee and affectation; in
fact, an expensive' education almost sure to un-
fit them to endure the crosses to which human
nature is liable. If the Duke of Cumberland can-;
not_get on without 6,000/. u-year added to. the
19,0001. he -already- receives, -let the-Message
come down for him alone. It would he, more likely
to .be carried than in its pre'sent'shape; Also, if
the Duchess of Kent be to have 6,0001. "a
-year
added to her income, let that Messaiie also come
down separately ; but as to the children of six
years of age, we would keep thein out of sight—
their names we would .not e-ven mention, for fear
of filling their heads full of vanity and conceit.
We are glad that'Mr.- Broughatn has expressed
his 'determination to oppose these grants in their
present shape, and we hope the measure: will be
lost by a large majority.

r • • E TAMES.]
Letters from Spain state, that the .constitu-
tional party is cautiously, bat
_perseveringly,

exerting itself to gain fresh friends. The French
force is now confined to Madrid and the garrison
towns. Spain is full of combustible matter, wait-
ing only the opportunity to explode : but, judg-
ing from the past, we shall not entertain very
sanguine hopes unless we see symptoms of a new
class of men taking an interest in the revolution.
Babblers and theorists are sorry leaders against
artillery : let a few energetic men like Mina
come forward, and Spain may yet be redeemed
from its present abyss of disgrace. Men of sound
common sense and active stirring habits are what
is wanted--not Salamanca logicians and orators,
talking by -rote what they have 'learned from the
common-places of antiquity, without skill or
energy to apply a single lesson.

[MORNING POST.]

We cannot too much admire the naiveté with
which the Opposition gravely propose to those
Members of the Cabinet, who, in the abstract,
advocate " Emancipation," to resign their places,
and join the Whigs against their present Col-
leagues in the Government. '' Only," say they,
" repudiate your friends, and separate from
Statesmen with whose principles and. Policy you
on all subjects but one concur, to coalesce with us
from whom on all subjects but that onefon differ,
and see what .wonders will ensue!" The re-
quest is certainly modest, but it still leaves the
Ministers who support the Catholic Claims in a
dilemma—it gives them but a choice of evils
and merely proposes, in case of the prophesied
success of the enterprize, being realized, :the
chance of forining part of a Cabinet, a thousand
times more divided and discordant than that to
which they ay:wally belong. Nothing, indeed,
has been imagined 'respecting the. .unnatural
alliances of, the Golden Age, more monstrous
than such a coalition—the lambs of Adminis.
tration with the tigers of the Opposition ! :Mr.
Secretary Canning in confidential confabulation
with Sir Francis Burdett—Mr. 'Plunkett, cheek
by jowl with Mr. Lambton—the Chancellor of
the Exchequer,- prompting Mr. Hume---and
Mr. 'Huskisson cheering, Mr. Hobhouse; while
Mr. Brougham led the. whole in a bitter attack
against the private' liVes of the Royal
and the public conduct 'of the Bench of Bishops !
We really think the assurance of the Whigs, in
mentioning so violent an outrage on the common
sense and feelings of the country, without paral7
lel ;. and we shall therefore leave them to rumi.
nate on their matchless vanity and effrontery. We
may observe, however, that, the affected cry of
disappointment at the fate of the Catholic Bill,
which made an occasion for the proposal that half
the Cabinet should resign, has deceived no one'.
Waiving other objections to the adoption of a
measure so Nilally connected with Ireland as
Emancipation is said to be, the Legislature has
not been prepared, much less ripe, at any period
of the present Session for deciding the subject.
We speak not now as opponents of the Question ;
but assuming, for argument sake,- that it may be
possible to prove the expediency of conces.
sions to the Papists. How did Mr. Rice Set
out at 'the commencement of his speech on
Thursday ? With nothing less than the grossest
inconsistency, namely, that Committees of
both Houses had been engaged for the whole
Session in inquiring into the' State •of Ire.
land— i and n the same breath, that. !Codling
had been done this. Session for that -country.—
The Honourable Member thus •contradicts him-
self—for we insist, as the Opposition themselves
have for a quarter of .a century insisted, that the
first and most-important step towards all objects
'desirable for that country, was a general
in-
quiry, such as Parliament has been, nay, is at
this moment engaged 'in. We also say,, that
the introdtiCtion Of the, Catholic Bill before
that inquiry•was concluded, and its results fully
digested, was premature—was nonsensical. The.
Speech from the Throne at the opening of Par-.
ljament recommended two things as necessary
and connected—first, the suppression of the Ca-
tholic Association, and next, as the, very
terms of the Resolution appointing the Commit.
tee express; an investigation into the causes
whence that assembly. and all other disiarbances
in Ireland have originated. Was not every thing
which the Irish or their friends con Id wish at pre.
sent implied in: this Course ? If Emancipation
could be made to appear expedient, 'would it
not thus be- best made evident—and- lfow could
any rational person expect that till the enquiry
was closed, and the Report submitted to the Legis.
lature, any measure of the kind wOuld,he seriously
entertained ? No; nor was it seriously entertained,
either by tliejVhigs or.theCatholics themselVes;
but a good opportunity for..agitating the Empite
was not to be lost, and with that view' the'Catho
tic Bill- was got up—and with the same view has
every angt'y and irritating topic been forced into
its discussion -by the Whigs and Radicals----the
" Deputation" and, the." Doctors" of the pre-
tended " Six Milli Ons." We trust, however,
the. farce• is now at an end, and that the
people -of Irelan&, exercising their own judg-
ment on the course pursued by Parliamint;
will rest content until 'they see what really
will be the Conclusion's which the Legislature
shall, after maturedeliberation, deduce from all
the evidence ,it has -collected during 'W whOle
anxious and indefatigable Session of, Inquiry.

CATHOLIC MEETING IN DUBLIN.-01) Satur-
day, pursuant to a: requisition, signed by Mr. Conway, and
published in the papers, a meeting of Catholic Gentlemen-took'
place at the Corn Exchange.. At half-past three o'clock, Major.
.Bryan was called to the chair. Mr. Conway then read a letter
from Mr. Dwyer, Secretary to the Cork Catholics,. requesting to
know what line of proceedings it was intended to adopt at the
next aggregate meeting. As no course has yet been determined
on, Mr. Conway was directed to infbrm the Catholics of Cork
to that effect.—(liforning.72egistcr.)

FALSE AL,tams.--011 Saturday a report was
very industriouily circulated throughout the City, that one of
the oldest and most respectable of our private banks had stop-
ped payment. It is, almost unnecessary for us to say that
tile report in question is utterly destitute of foundation : but
we cannot too highly condemn the unworthy conduct of indij
viduals who originate and circulate rumours, which,. however
unfounded, are but too well calcUlated to aggravate any exist-
ing embarrassment to which a particular, department of trade
may be subjected:—(Dublin Morning Poit.:)

ENORMOUS Fisir.—A sturgeon was on Thurs-
day sennigift expOsed for sale at PreSton fish-stones, that had
been taken by Thomas Wain, on the Lancaster SAnds. It
Weighed 3301b5. and measured in length nine feet seven inches;
and in the thickest part was four feet two inches in girth.
