away. If the law proposed were an inferior law, there ou
some ground for the position taken by the Right II hero
Baronet. Let the Houle look at Scotland: was ther. :erf
country in which popular agitation had risen
and the institutions of the country more comp "of
overthrown. They had a more , stringent law the
entail than they bad in England, and Yet do
only restriction imposed on the testator was that thirty
be
should elapse from the date of making the bequest before
death of the testator. If thirty days had elapsed trice
was valid. The Lord Advocate in his evlu is

which this power had been abused. fie ( the
Clive) did not think that be was calling eu the
House to do much when he asked them to alterefecl
present law, and when they considered the benefids,l bees
of a law similar to the one proposed, whenever it bad
tried elsewhere. not

had entertained a just expectation of begilheaSbese br
