COCKERMOUTH ELECTION.

Mr. HORSNIAN has been returned for the 80.
rough of Cockermouth by a majority of Twenty
five.—Morning Post.

In the Lords, on petitions being presented against the
Earl of ABERDEEN'S Bill for regulating the Kirk of
Scotland, Lord BROUGHAM took an opportunity of
pronouncing a strong opinion against those who refused
to obey the law, and to state that he wished to see the
existi.ig laws enforced before new ones were enacted.
*The Earl of CHARLEVILLE and the Marquis of LON-
DONDERRY asked some questions about the appoint-
ments under the Poor-law (Ireland), and were proceed-
ing to trespass on the Royal prerogative by questioning
those appointments, when they were rebuked by Lord
ELLENBOROUGH, who, looking forward, probably, to a
time when he may be called on to exercise it, thought
it necessary to check the impertinences of his friends.
On the Order of the Day tor going into Committee on
the Administration of Justice Bill, Lord BROUGHAM
stated that he was opposed to any increase in the
power of Chancery. The Noble and Learned Lord
stated, at considerable length, his reasons for thinking
that the present Judges might, with proper regulations,
get through the business. When lie was Lord
Chancellor, he had been applied to for an increase of
the number of Judges in the Common Law Courts ;
and if he had a=sented to :he request there would now
have been more Judges than were required. The Noble
and Learned Lord also stated his views on the Air;
pellate Jurisdiction, which he seems inclined io place
in the Privy Council, at the head of WLich he would
place the head of the Law,
on of mi
LoAlfter a very short "),iscussion, which ensued when

and on account of the
~..ctons made to it, referred to a Select Com.
e. This is the month of June, and we apprehend,
(acrefore, that the Bill will not stand much chance of
being
converted into a law this Session.
Their Lordships then adjourned.

of bringing an action against a Magistrate.

this motion had been adjourned on account of the ab-
sence of the President of the Board of Trade who was
last night present, and pronounced Mr. BEADSHAw's
claim the most groundless one he had ever heard of.
