cases as well as to town. That was the error in point of
fact : that of calculatiop arose from his Noble Friend not
making allowance for those deductions, and subtracting
the 2,5001. paid to the Vice-Chancellor from an income of
17,000/., which did not exipit.

The whole 4ross produce of the Chancellor's revenue was X17,r00
From which deduct for the Vice-Chancellor 2,500

Left £14,500
From which deduct fees on bankruptcy given up 7,500

Would leave, as the actual salary £7,000
Tint, in short, observed the Noble and Learned Lord, was
the amount of salary to which he would reduce his office;
and he would prove it by laying the particulars on the
table. Here it was but proper he should reject a compli-
ment which hail been paid to his generosity or to his
wealth, as if he had chosen to say that the salary of the
Lord Chancellor should be reduced to 7,000/. It was a
groundless compliment, and, if paid, as he said to his
wealth or generosity, it was at the expense of his common
senSe: for, while the expenses of the office (as we under-
stood him to sty) were 10,000/. he would could not see
how any man could think of paying 3,000/. a year for
the pleasure of being called Lord chancellor, and of sitting
on public business ten months in the year, exquisite as
that pleasure might be supposed to be by those who
had not experienced it. Ile could only further add
that Parliament would be unwise if it suffered the
salary to remain at that reduced estimate. Having
explained the error fallen into by his Learned Frienft,
be begged now to say a word with respect to two
charges that had been male against him, and which
were iu opposition to the general satisfaction that lie
understood, on all other hands, his propositions hail given.
One side of the Court of Chancery complained of his
enumeration of fees, and of the Masters' offices, but he
begged to observe, that he bad stated nothing but what he
had previously been obliged to depose to before a Com-
mittee of the other House. He bad not exceeded one par-
ticular, and, as that evidence must of necessity be soon
published, had he abstained from a notice of these matters
in his statement, he would not save publicity more than
a week The other charge was of a different nature, and
it was an instance of the variety of imputations to which a
Reformer made himself liable. He was charged with
having screened abuses and gratuities in the Masters'
offices ; but he could reply that he had not done so ;
and that he was guided in his course by seeing how im-
possible it was for any subordinate person to commence
reform until the head of the Court thought proper to do so.
Lord WYNFORD suggested some attention to the con-
trout of the Court to the power held by the creditors of
discharging a bankrupt.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, he was aware of
the necessity of providing agaiust what were called
" white-washing commissions."

Lord ELLENBOROIJGH referred to the calculation
made by Lord Lyndhurst on Friday night, and contended
that the loss of emolument would not be to the extent now
stated by the Noble and Learaied Lord.
The LORD CHANCELLOR pointed out the mode in
which the Noble Baron had miscalculated the salary and
emoluments of the office--partly from taking the salary
from the House and from the Exchequer as 10,000/ ,
when they were under 9,0001. ; and partly from, an over-
estimate
of the fees on bankruptcy.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH said, it was very strange
that the Noble and Learned Lord should have raid so
much attention to the subject of fees in the course of three
months, as to be a better authority on them than his
Noble and Learned predecessor was, who had spent as
many years in the same office.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—If he were found pay-
ing attention to the fees of his office with a view of in-
creasing them for his swn advantage ; if he were found
standing up against all law Reform for the purpose of pre-
seriing his own emolument ; if he were found opposing
every Bill for the better administration of fustice, lest his
own profits should be rendered insecure, then he could bear
to be told that he had looked more into the subject of free
than others who preceded him in office had done.—(He tr.)
When he stated that be looked into the amount of emolu-
ments it was because his attention was directed to the sub-
ject, and it was with a view of relinquishing fees, without
caring for the loss of them, or of the patronage which
he, at the same time, abandoned. It was a little too hard,
therefore, for him to be told—great as the quarter from
whence the suggestion came, directed us the sarcasm might
be—that he had looked into his office more in three months
than his predecessor had in three years.—(Hear, hear.)
Lord ELLENBOROITGH declared that he bad not in-
tended to convey anything like sarcasm in what he said.
He was unwilling to trouble the House with a word rela-
tive to himself; hut, as he understood the allusion that had
been made to him, he had only to assure the Noble Lord,
if he thought prop r—gifted as he was with splendid elo-
quence, with sarcastic and reasoning powers—to bring
forward any motion on the subject of the emoluments
which he (Lord Ellenborough) received as the reward
given by the country for the judicial services of his father,
he would be happy to meet him ; and he could further
add, that he considered himself as well entitled—because
his father served the public—to his propaty, as any
Noble Lord in the House did to the property left him by
his ancestors.

Lord ItADNOR regretted that the House hail broken
up on the night when the Noble and Learned Llid made
his statement without con.plimenting hint for the great
public good he was effecting. His Noble Friend was not
justified in using any thine like sarcasm in this case, when
it was evident that the Noble and Learned Lori had only
investigated fees with a view of giving them up, and of
relinquishing emolument and patronage in the most noble
and disinterested manner. In his opinion the country
owed every thing to the Learned Lord, and it was proper
that the emoluments of his office should be placed on an
adt quate footing.
Lord ELLENBOROUG R repeated that be bad not ex-
ceeded the bounds of a fair commentary in his remarks on
the Noble and Learned Lord's statement.

The Earl of WINCHILSEA said that the property of
the proprietors of land had been reduced 40 per cent., and
he did not under.tand why the Noble Lord should claim
an exemption in his favour for a revenue derived from ser-
vices rendered by his father, and why it should be trqns-
witted, unencumbered from all share of the public :wren,
to him.

Petitions for Reform were presented by Earl Gant-, the
Earl of CAausLE, and Viscount 'MELBOURNE.

Adjourned at Six o'clock.

110 USE OF COMMONS, MARCH 1.

Every avenue leading to the House was this clay crowded
to excess long before the usual time far commencing busi-
ness. As early as ten o'clock in the morning a great number
of individuals had completely filled the lobby leading to the
gallery, and public interest appeared to manifest itself iu
a greater degree than ever we remember to have noticed
on any former occasion, not even excepting t`-.e time of
the debates on the Catholic Question.
The SPEAKER entered the House shortly after Three
o'clock, but in consequence of there being a ballot for three
Election Committees, the gallery was not opened for the
'c h)
e tremendous, Ae so
notnid as
in thea
few seconds every seat was occupied. The House
daodomrsiss wereion of
openstr angtheres until Svc
way
was also completely tilled with Members, as well in the
body of the House as in both the side galleries. The
greatest confusion for some time prevailed, in con-
sequence o:
theimmense rush that took place into
the gallery as sow:. as the doors were opened.
Many persons bade fair to be treated with a dislocated
neck, by being very unceremoniously tossed from the
to the front row of the gallery, over the heads of,
those whom they passed in their hasty de.icent;
In consequence of all this, business was. for a time
suspended, during which " Silence" was very fre-
quently called front the Chair, and once or twice
" clear the gallery," though no further attempt was made
to put this call into execution. A very great number of I
Peers lined the side galleries.

When the confusion had in some degree subsided, and
something like silence or decent order was obtained, a great
number of petitions were presented from various parts,
which chiefly prayed for Reform and vote by ballot.
