LORD BROUGHAM.—Lord Brougham, of all public
men, is now rendering the best service in the country,
While party politicians are striving only for their own per-
sonal ends, the indefatigable Brougham is labouring in the
cause of law reform, with a zeal and energy that remind us
of his best days. Age cannot wither his energies, nor labour
wear him out. His recent Bill far the extension of the
jurisdiction of the county courts is one of the best and most
beneficial measures that has ever been proposed. It surely
must shame the Ministry, if they have any sense of shame
remaining, to find every good and useful measure started
by private Members. Nothing in the shape of law reform
or financial reform, has been as yet exhibited by the Govern-
ment, though we are premised some striking plan for Chan-
cery reform, which, however, we may very likely never see
propounded. Brougham, too, by his attacks upon the un-
fairness of the operation of the income-tax, and upon the
iniquities of schedule D, has a claim to the gratitude of the
country, and quite throws into the shade Lord John Russell
and the whole tribe of his colleagues. In fact, he has done
more than them all altogether to promote the cause of re-
form ; and he is now by far more creditably occupied than
the Premier, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Home
Secretary, or his particular Friend, the Lord Chancellor.

THE FRIMLBY Munnsn.—Yesterday morning, in
put suance of the official orders, the two prisoners. Levi Har-
wood and James Jones, were removed from the gaol at
Kingston, in custody of several officers, to the Surrey county
prison. They were conveyed in a post-chaise and reached
Horsemonger-lane shortly after one o'clock, where only a
few persons had assembled in front of the gates. The vehicle
was driven into the court-yard in front of the magistrates'-
room, where Mr. John Keene, the governor, formally took
charge of them. They were placed in separate cells, and
the necessary attendants were directed to watch over them
night and day. Shortly before two o'clock the approver,
Hiram Smith, was brought from Kingston in the prison van
to the same gaol, in charge of three constables, where he will
remain until further orders. The other prisoner, Samuel
Harwood, still remains in the custody of Mr. Merton, of the
Illubridge-wells Mice.
