DISTUTEED =FE POTACIEg.

" A trial of considerable interest to Life Assurance Offices and the
public was concluded yesterday in the Court of Exchequer. The
Eagle Company lield a policy for an assurance of 5391. in the Albion
Company as security for an advance, the payment of which policy
was now disputed by the Albion, on the ground that at the time it
was effected the fact of the assured party having been a man of in-
temperate habits was concealed from the office. 'the chief evidence
turns, upon the question as to the degree of intemperance that had
been exhibited, and the resift wac, that a verdict was given against
the resisting office, not only for the amount of the policy, but also for
401. interest from the date when it became due. The circumstance
of the action being brought by one office against another presents a
striking illustration of the uncertainty which may attach to all po-
licies torter the present system, and shows that the only mode by
wh ch absolute security can be obtained by the public must lie in the
general adoption by Assurance Offices of the plan of prose ring them-
selves in es, ry case by due inquiries before the grantim f each po-
licy, and of afterwards assuming the full responsibility ot the com-
pleteness of such Inquiries by holding themselves precluded from
raising any future question. In the pr.ent case two offices are
found to be diametrically opposed in their opinions as tc what can
properly invalidate a claim, and yet the public are expected to be
able to guars themselves against such contingences. Similar cases
have occurred before, and even if they were more rare, they would
seriously injure the progress of life assurance. The very principle
upon which the business is founded is the removal of uncertainty,
and whenever that principle is counteracted in the slightest degree,
the people who would be the first to resort to its advantages are the
first to be deterred."—Times, July 11, 1850.

THE MIDLAND RAILWAY COMP ANY AND THE
LEEDS AND BRADFORD LEASE.—Mr. Carbutt, c f
Leeds, one of the Ali Band directors, yesterday ad-
dressed a letter to the shareholders in the Midland,
stating the objections which may he urged to the
lease of the Leeds and Bradford line. After defend-
ing his own proceedings upon this question, Mr.
Carbutt proceeds—lt is one of the covenants of the
lease that, after the Brad'ord directors have expended
all their money, which by their Act of Parliament
they are empowered to raise, the Midland Company
shall provide whatever further sums msv be required
for the completion of the Inns. In execution of this
covenant, the Midland Company has already paid to
the I,,eds and Bradford Company considerable sums
of money, and the Bradford directors have stated in
their last report that there will be sill wanted
95,0001. It is impossible to say precisely what the
total outlay will amount to, but here is an enormous
expenditure beyond the powers granted by Parlia-
ment. Now it seems to me doubtful whether the
clauses of the Bradford Act, which enabled that com-
pany to lease its lines to the Midland Company, war-
rant the making conditions which exceed the Parlia-
mentary powers. At any rate the Midland Company
has never obtained Parliamentary powers for such a
purpose, and certainly has no fund out of which it
can legally pay the demands of the Bradford Com-
pany. Mr. Carbutt adds that he will be no party to
any attempt to upset the lease on technical grounds,
and that he will not place any obstacle in the way of
its being carried out by his colleauges beyond enter-
ing its protest on the minutes of the board.
LONDONDERRY AND ENNISKILLEN RAILWAY.—
We are happy to learn that a contract has been finally
entered into with Mr. M'Cormick for the extension
of this line from Strabane to Newtownstewart, and
that the plant is already on its way here; so that the
work will be commenced forthwith. The sum to be
paid the contractor does not exceed 33,0001. (the dis-
tance is ten miles), the greater part to be in deben •
tures or shares, and is inclusive of five expensive river
bridges—the whole that are required, but exclusive of
sleepers and rails. Tells cheapness of execution is in
striking contrast with the large sums which were
paid for work during the railway mania, and goes
far to explain the heavy losses whichhave been
brought upon the shareholders of some compa-
nies, and the addition which must have been
made to the current expenses of the public for tra-
velling and the conveyance of goods.—Londonderry

BLACKBURN COUNTY COURT.
The usual fortnightly sitting of this court was held
on Monday last, at the Sessions-room, before John
Addison, Esq., and attracted more than usual interest
in consequence of a jury having been summoned in
one of the cases entered for trial, and also because, as
it was the first court held since the passing of the new
Act, it was expected that the Learned Judge might
probably make some observations relative to it.
This expectation proved to be correct, for upon
taking his seat his Honour addressed the persons pre-
sent as follows :

By order of the Board,
PHILIP HENRY BYRNE, Secretary.

In an address which I made at the opening of this
court, three years and a half ago, describing the
principal features of this new system of law proce-
dure, I ventured to say—" It is e&sy to see that if it
gives satisfaction, it will ere long be extended to
greater amounts, and other why-et..."
Some time ago the jurisdiction was extended to
matters of insolvency, and since the last sitting of the
court an Act of Parliament'has been passed which
effects a further extension ; so that now the ordinary
jurisdiction of the court comprises debts, damages,
and demands, not exceeding 501., and actions of re-
plevin to any amount, and ejectments of tenants hold-
ing over where the rent do"s not exceed 50/. a year.
And a special jurisdiction has now been given f)r the
trial of causes to any amount, although title to land,
whether of freehold, cop) hold, leasehold, or other
tenure, or any title to tithe, toll, market, fair, or
other franchise, shall be in question, upon the pre-
vious consent of parties.
This is a declaration from the highest authority
that our procedure has been found well adapted to
the discovery of truth, and the administration of
justice.

Princes-street, Bank, September 5, 1850.

- But it is not the only testimony to that effect, for
it is impossible to read the new short forms of claims
adopted in the High Court of Chancery, in place of
the long bills that used to be filed there, without dis-
covering that they are only so many copies of County
Court summonses.
The chief differences between our procedure end
'that of the ordinary courts of common law are, that
we have no special pleading, but go to the trial of
the merits at once; that for the trial we bring the
judge to the parties and their witnesses, instead of
bringing them to him ; that we sit for the trial at
short intervals, instead of twice a year; and for dis-
covery of truth apply to those who are most likely to
know it best, namely, the parties themselves, whom
the ordinary courts by the existing law are not al-
lowed to hear. If we find either party
taken by sur-
prise we adjourn the matter to the next court day,
ordinarily occasioning a delay of a fortnight only,
never more than a month, and, a very trifling ex-
pense ; whereas, at the assizes a cause cannot be ad-
journed, and if the plaintiff elect to be nonsuited he
must suffer the delay of half a year,
defen-
dant's costs as well as his own, and pay the
incur all his
own expenses over again.
Causes for less than 51. on contract, are with us
tried by the judge alone; for sums beyond that
amount by the judge, with or without a jury, as the
parties desire. They very seldom ask for a jury; in
one of my courts no jury has been asked for from the
commencement, three years and a half ago : in the
whole circuit of my next neighbour there was not a
single jury cause during the last year.— When there
is a jury it consists of five persons instead of twelve.
Our parties generally plead their own causes, which
now and then occasions a lively exhibition of Anglo-
Saxon vigour and language, but very
inconvenience.
If the defendant cannot pay at once we order him
little practical
to pay in the only way he is able, by instalments; and
the plaintiff gets something by degrees who would
otherwise get nothing at all. Our procedure is at
once more mild and more effectual; our plaintiffs
oftener get paid, and our defendants seldomer go to
prison : it is more like arbitration than litigation, and
it Li not uncommon for those who come into court
litigants to go out friends.
Some of these advantages, if they be such, can only
be obtained in local courts • but others are of general
application; and we may hope that the Commission
lately issued by her Majesty for inquiring into the
practice and pleading of the superior courts may put
an end to much of the subtlety, prolixity, and ex-
pense of special pleading; and occasion causes at the
au;zes to he more frequently determined upon their
real merits, and not so often on legal points totally
irrespective of them.
Why should not the parties, when they both desire
it, have their cause tried by the enlightened mind of
the learned judge at the assizes, instead of the chance
medley of a jury ? And why should they not be
both convented before the judge in their own proper
persons, and be examined by him ? It is but a pre-
judice of education which leads the lawyers to an ex-
cessive dread of the perjury of parties. Of thin the
following statement will give the proof.
I take a note in writing of every case which comes
before the court. From these notes I have ascer-
tained that in the County Court at Preston during
the last year 1,108 detendants admitted that the plain-
tiffs had some cause of action at that time or previ-
ously; whilst only 64 absolutely denied that the
plaintiffs ever had any right at all. 1,070 admitted
the demand in various ways, thus :

270, by admission out of Court, afterwards proved in
Court, such admission being made after action
brought.
284, by not appearing at the hearing, which in the
superior Courts is considered an admission, and in
the County Court may be more reasonably so con-
sidered, for there appearance costs nothing ; but
where nevertheless the plaintiff was still required
to prove his case on oath in opt n Court.
200, by admission made to the plaintiffs after action,
but who proceeded no further in consequence of the
defendants promising to pay without proceedings,
or stayed proceedings at the solicitation of the de-
fendants on account of their poverty. Though this
last number is not given with absolute preeizion,
the error cannot be large.
38 defendants admitted part of the demand, and the
plaintiffs accepted judgment for the part so ad-

pat tof their demand. The defendants obtained judg-

the plaintiffs had any demand, the plaintiffs recovered
judgment for their whole demand in 34, for part in
3, and the defendants recovered judgment in 27.
Fearing that there might be something peculiar.in
the Preston Court, I proceed,cl to take a similar ac-
count of the cases in the County Court at Blackburn.
The result so nearly coincides, that that return need
not be stated.
These accounts show conclusively that in the County
Courts truth is the general rule and falsehood the ex-
ception, indeed the rare exception.
If such be the case with persons in the humblest
walks of life, what is to be expected from those in the
higher, where the loss of character is of so much
greater importance, to say nothing of the effects of
education or religion ?
The new Act provides that the fees to be taken for
causes above the value of 201. shall be such as under
the former Act are charged far sums above 101. So
that justice will be done for the larger demands at a
cheaper rate than for the smaller, which seems hardly
fair; not that we should desire them to pay more, but
the others less, for the courts are not merely self-
supporting, but are yielding a surplus of I believe
30,0001. a year to the Treasury.
It seems to me a mean thing for a great country to
be receiving any part of its revenues in the shape of
fees from the suitors of County Courts, most of whom
are humble, and many necessitous.
Indeed, an enlarged consideration of the subject
would show that courts of justice are established, not
so much for the benefit of the few who have the mis-
fortune to require them in their own cases, as for the
many who by reason of their existence, example, and
salutary action, have no need to apply to them.
I have traced out upon a large map of England the
boundaries of all the courts, and I find their size and
shape, in general, carry their own vindication. In
those cases where this is not apparent upon mere in-
spettion, I don't doubt there were reasons. No
doubt some of the courts have not business enough to
pay their own expenses, and a suggestion has been
made that these should be suppressed, and their dis-
tricts added to those adjoining.
I cannot agree in this suggestion ; it would not
only put the suitors to greater trouble in travelling to
try or to pay instalments, but would be attended with
other inconveniences.
The necessity of a court, or its excellency, is not
to be measured by the number of its causes, unless,
indeed, it be by the fewness of them ; for that few-
ness may arise from a general confidence amongst the
suitors that there is no use for the party, who knows
himself to be in the wrong, to make a resistance that
would be ineffectual. But this is not all ;
there is another reason, which I feel acutely : the
judge who sits every day in the week has need of
some easy days. I sit every day of every alternate
week, and every Monday throughout the year, and
travel three hundred miles a month. This is an
amount of labour, considering the kind of it, enough
for any man ; the drive through the fresh air, and the
short hours of one court, enable me to stand the fetid
atm,,sphere and long hours of another.
The new Act contains a power of appeal in matters
of law to two judges of the superior court., who are
to sit together for the decision of cases reserved.
Theoretically there should be an appeal from every
first judgment, but practically this cannot be—very
small matters cannot bear the delay or expense of it.
Some one has said it is ordained that medicine shall
be nauseous and law dear. Hitherto there has been
no appeal, but the suitors of this circuit and the next
adjoining have had much of the benefit of an appeal,
without any expense, and with very little delay. The
judges of this circuit and the next have conferred to-
gether upon cases reserved for consideration. I have
never hitherto refused to reserve a case; indeed, I
have never thought the request to do so unreasonably
made; and I have often reserved cases without being
requested.
Parliament has confined the legal appeal to cases
above twenty pounds. The conferences I have men-
tioned will still continue, and will probably often
render unnecessary the legal appeal.
Hitherto, there have not been many actions for
legacies, or shares of residues. People have been so
long accustomed to consider that trustees and execu-
tors cannot be brought to book, except by a chancery
suit that would ruin all parties, that they don't think
of proceeding for so small a legacy as twenty pounds.
Now that the jurisdiction is enlarged to fifty pounds,
we may expect more such actions. The inquiry will
always be a complicated one, and we must not ex-
pect it to he, concluded in one single sitting, but
must be satisfied if at the first sitting we can ascer-
tain the right of the plaintiff to his demand and the
liability of the defendant to account, and if we can
take the account itself at the second hearing. Svve-
rat such cases have been thus disposed of; in some
the plaintiffs have recovered their demands, in the
greater number the account has shown that the
executor had no funds is hand. There has been no
case yet in which I thought the inquiry improperly
called for.

The farmer Act declared that plaintiffs suing in
the superior courts for sums under twenty pounds on
contract or five pounds in tort, should not be entitled
to costs; but the superior courts h4ving held that a
suggestion was necessary to deprive the plaintiff of his
costs, and that this suggestion must be drawn with
a particularity which ordinary ingenuity was not
equal to, and that the defendant when his lawyer was
lucky enough to draw the suggestion right must pay
the costs of it him'elf, which sometimes amounted to
as much as the plaintiff's costs, and always to a con-
siderable proportion of them, the provision of the
former Act became almost a dead letter. The new
Act cuts the matter short by declaring that no sug-
gestion shall be necessary.
The late Act left it very doubtful, in cases where
the goods of the party were not sufficient to pay both
the execution creditor his debt and the landlord his
rent, which of them should be paid first. Some of
the judges held in favour of the creditor and some in
favour of the landlord. There was no means of
bringing the matter before the superior judges, and
therefore each judge was obliged to act upon his own
judgment. The new Act contains a provision that
the landlord shall be preferred: as this is an enacting
and not a declaratory provision, it is so far an ac-
knowledgment that those judges were not incorrect
who held that the former Act gave the priority to
the execution creditor.

In some parts of the circuit I have been applied to
by parties to hear cases which were out of the juris-
diction of the court, as rights of way, repairs of roads,
&c., both parties consenting to abide by my opinion
as if it were a judgment of the court. The new Act
enables the court to try such cases by the previous
consent of the parties in writing filed in the court
when the process is taken out. The proceedings will
then go on and the judgment will have all the effect of
that of any other court of record, whatever may be the
amount of the sum sought to be recovered, and
although the title to land, tithe, toll, or franchise may
be in question.
The power of appeal will apply to these cases.
In the County Court of Lancashire, as it existed be-
fore the late Acts, same four or five professional
gentlemen regularly attended the court as advocates,
and though all other attorneys had an equal right
to plead, they seldom exercised it; the consequence
was that the court had much of the benefit of
a regular bar. Though the remuneration now allow-
able to advocates is greater than it was under the
first Acts, and although adiocates will be more fre-
quently required, as the subject-matter in dispute is
larger, still several of the courts of this circuit will
have too little business to induce barristers to attend.
I would therefore recommend that a limited number
of gentlemen should regularly attend the courts as
advocates, and should intimate to me their intention
of doing so. And I would also recommend that
others should in general abstain from pleading. I
give this recommendation, not merely that there
should be a better remuneration to those wbo attend
regularly, but because experience proves the advan-
tage of the English system, which makes the advocate
a different person from the attorney, who communi-
ctoartneseydsi,reoeftlgy

to occupy much of the public time unnecessarily, and
rewaitthabtihlietyp
to ask irregular questions leading to unseemly dis-
cussions.

Whilst I acknowledge the advantage of a bar, I am
desirous to keep the expense of proceeding in these
courts as little oppressive to the suitors as may be. I
would therefore recommend the advocates to accept
small fees, and to seek their account rather in a large
number of small fees than in a small number of large
ones ; and though this practice will employ more
of their time and labour and of mine, we must be
content to make this sacrifice if the public interest re-
quires it.
Mr. Sergeant Dowling, the judge of the York cir-
cuit, has lately publicly recommended the advocates
toresume the ancient practice, which has been resumed
in many county courts, of wearing in court a profes-
sional robe; a practice which has been found useful
in preserving order and decorum. I beg, to join in
this recommendation. It is desirable that not only
the practice but the appearance of all the county
courts should be alike. They are now the established
courts of the country, and we should omit nothing
that may win them the public respect.

Sir George Grey has left Balmoral for his seat,
Fallodon, Northumberland.
