Last night a meeting was held at the British Hotel,
Cockspur-street, for the purpose of considering the propriety,
of applying to Parliament far an extension of the West-
minster Court of Requests to all debts not exceeding 10/.
At present their powers are limited to 40s.
__ Mr. Walker was unanimously elected chairman, and Mr.

Harrison secretary.
The CHAIRMAN, on opening the business, stated that a
circular, giving notice of the meeting, had been sent to
every Commissioner of the Court. There required no rhe-
toric on his part to enforce the importance of the object.
Mr. BASTER, of Holborn, observed, that in the West-
minSter Court the judgments were entirely at the discretion
the Commissioners, and if they extended their powers from
40s. to sums of 101., in his opinion the Court might become
an engine dangerous to the liberties of the citizens of West-
trial minster. It was the boast of Englishmen that they had
by jury, but that mode of trial did not prevail in this Court,
and he called upon them to pause before they extended its
powers, without they at the same time so remodelled its
constitution as to infuse into it the principle of jury trial.
Mr. CROUCH observed, it was matter of surprise to
foreigners -that Englishmen, who were so far in a✓?vance an
most subjects, should in the recovery of small debts have to
incur great expense, and much delay and vexation. It
was still more a subject of surprise that Westminster
should be behind all other parts of the metropolis, for in
the city of London the power of the Court of Requests
was lately raised to 101. In the county it was 51., while in
Westminster no debt was recoverable above 21., without
in the very first process incurring an expense of 21. `2s.
He would, therefore, move a resolution for applying to
Parliament for an extension of the power of their Court
to 101.

Mr. BRENNELL seconded the motion, and could, as a
Commissioner, bear testimony that in many instances great
sacrifices were made to bring down the debt within the
power of the Court. In the very last case he heard, the
debt had been reduced from 8/. to 21., as the only means of
getting anything.
Mr. WOOD objected to the resolution, as he contended
that the reform which had taken place in the Sheriffs Courts
rendered it unnecessary. The Sheriffs' Courts now sit
weekly, and in simple cases of debt give decisions with
promptitude, and to any amount.
Mr. WEST—If the debt be Si., what would be the costs ?
Mr. Noon—lf brought to trial they might amount to
perhaps 61. or 71.—(A laugh.)
Mr. ROBINSON, as a commissioner, had no objection to
the Court's power being extended to sums of Si. but
must protest against a higher sum, unless the official re-
sponsibility were rendered far more perfect than at pre-
sent. A complete revision of the constitution of the
Court was necessary. He would move as an amendment
the substitution of 51.

Mr. PRouT said it was always understood that if they
moved at all, it would be with a view to get rid of every ex-
isting abuse or defect in the state of the court. They might
as well apply for a 10/. court as a 5/. one.

Mr. FEN declared the court to be in a most shameful
state, and, although it might not be the case at present, yet
he knew that formerly it was the practice for warrants of
distress to be signed by quires together at a time, and left
blank in the hands of the officers to be filled up as they
pleased.
Mr. CROUCH declared that this and other abuses had
ceased to exist.

The CHAIRMAN, as a Commissioner, also vindicated the
present court from the charges of Mr. Fenn.
A gentleman seconded the amendment.

On a show of hands being taken, very few were held up
for the amendment, and the original motion was then put
and carried unanimously.
Mr. GREEN was of opinion that the mal-practices of the
court were so notorious, that a declaratory resolution to that
effect was necessary. He would therefore move the follow-
ing resolution :—" That it is expedient to reform, in many
essential particulars, the constitution and practice of the
Court of Requests."
FENN seconded the ;nation.
Mr. NORMAN objected to the resolution as uncalled for,
and casting censures not deserved. As an amendment, he
would move that a committee be appointed to inquire and
report what improvements can be effected in the rules of
the Court as at present constituted.

Mr. CLARK seconded the amendment.
Upon the show of hands, the amendment was carried by
a great majority.
The meeting then proceeded to name the committee.
The attendance was most numerous and respectable.
