SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The statute which professes to guard the public against
the abominable practice of 'adulterating bread and flour
seems to be lamentably inefficient. Within a few months,
two instances of gross adulteration of flour have been ex-
posed in the justice-room at Guildhall, and the Magistrates
'have openly or tacitly admitted their inability to reach the
.
offinderS.. The Act to which we allude (3d Geo. IV.,
...
cap. 106) provides, that if any person shall, within. ten
miles of the 'Royal Exchange, " knowingly sell, or offer or.
expose ' for sale, either separately or mixed, any meal or,
flour of one sort of corn or grain, as the meal or flour of
any other tort of corn or grain, or any ingredient whatever
mixed With the Meal or flour so sold, or offered or exposed
for sale," every person so offending shall forfeit not ex-
ceeding /0/., nor less than 51. When a person discovers
that he has purchased some poisonous stuff instead. of flour
and complaint to the Magistrate with a view to the
punishment of the adulterator, he is asked what rea-
son he can assign from which the :Magistrate may infer
the party 9 knowingly" sold, or exposed to sale, an
impure fttixture; beeautie unless * cunseienaness of the
impurity was in some way manifested, the Magistrate
has no' authority to interfere. , Here the case hall al-
ways broken down, for the complainant declines swear-
ing that he even suspects the party with whom he is
in the habit of dealing to be aware of the fraud: his sus-
picions Usually rest wholly on the miller or factor. When
a load of hay, deficient in weight, or fraudulently packed,
has been, sold, the seller may be convicted without any
-inquiry es to whether he was aware of the fraud or defi-
ciency, *Mahe party convicted hus his remedy against
the party from whom he received the hay ; and whymay nut
the same course be adopted with regard to the sellers of
adulterated flour and bread, and the party vending it be
punishable, whether }leis aware of the fraud or not, lean-
him to recover the fine from the party of whom he bought
the article ? The right of the magistrate to Search for
and seise. adulterated flour and bread is also limited, by
the shove-mentioned acts to thes premises of " millers,
mealmen, and bikers," leaving all the general dealers or
chandlers shops-;-all thoae whe do , not make, although
they sell bread—exempt from the operation of the lavis—
h was from a shop of the latter description the precious
specimen of what is called flour, which we had occasion
to notice a few days ago, was purchased.—Tirnes.
, ,
Atnepg.the eircuinstances by which our times are ad-
vantageonaly distinguished front the three of our fathers,
there is.uo one of which we beim more cause to boast than
the understanding 'which now .exists as to the necessity of
renouncing all attempts to prevent the public from looking
into subleete in which they era interested, by investing
them Ifithiartifliiiii dilfeulties. The public is interested in
no sulajeet so, much as in the Law, for they never can be
too *A Xequainted with that, on the' Observation of the
rules Of Which their personal safety; and the security for
their propirty depend.", If law were to be wrapped up in.
a tarp:oe tuentelligibile to all but the individuals who had
made it a particular study, this would be, constituting the
individuals in question the arbitrary masters of the lives
and properties of the rest of a nation,--for, when they mo-
nopolised the knowledge of the law, they could render
no reason for , their conduct, which would be intelligible
tb therytenee, •to 'whoid their decisions would, there-,
fore, appear perfectly arbitrary. As la* is intended
for the guidance of men, its first quality, 'therefore,
ought to be intelligibility; and the strongest Condem-
nation, we can pass on the law 'of a country is to
say, Oat it al-mends in subtleties, which can only
be mastered after a long and arduous 'study.—
Newspapers have certainly been prodoctive; among other
great benefits, of that, of familiarizing the great body of
the people with thelew;hy moue of ,the RepOrts of caaeo
decided in the Courts.. :The Judges andsti*Tisterli .have

COURT OF CHANCERY, -Mx,. 17.
EX-PARTE BOURNE 114 ItE socatie, A BAN?CRUP.T.
141 r. Hearn was heard in eoricluskin upon this Bankrupt Peti-
lien, and was followed by Mr. Rosa on the same Aide, The latter
Learned Gentleman read from the printed report of the Case,
beard in the Court below, Ids Honour's reUons for refusing to
ruperside the Commission. "'Conde of Justice," said his Hii
nowt'', " have nothing to do with the motives of parties 'who
assert in a legal manner their: legal rights, whether the motives
he jitst:or unjust. If , a commission issued upon an unjust mo-
tive beet-ones an efficient instrument of fraud, and the bankrupt
cannotibe relieved from the fraud of .whisk the commission. is an
instrument, but by superseding the cotrituiesion, the. Court will
interfere and supersede, the commission, ,in order to defeat the
fraud .; but, however *net the motive of the petitioning creditor
may he, if the fraudulent purpoae may be defeated without super-
seding ;the commission, the Court will not interfere." '
The!LORD CHANCELLOR still professed his inability to under-
stand the reasons by which his Honour had been governed in ar-
riving et this conclusion. '
hir.j Haler and Mr. Sevarotot spoke in support of the turn
mission, and contended that the Court had no right lo act upon its'
judgment of motives in the present case. The powers given to
the creditors had here been legally used, and they must have the
credit Sid' having so used theM with a good motive. The allege-
dons against Mr. Bennett were- -wholly unfounded, and there was
no pretence for superteding the commission.
Mr. Mean, at mune length, replied, and commented upon the
length of time which had been occupied bylitt. Hart in his ad-
dress tp the Court, embracing a space of time much longer than
himself and the two junior Counsel put together.
i
The Loan CHAriczt,Lop remembered au anecdote about long
speechoes which had been told of .1..0rd Thurlow soon after that
Noble ;Lord took his seat as Chancellor. , A very Learned Gentle
toast, *hose name was Maddock, made a very long-Winded speech, ,
and before he had half got to the end of it, Lord Tlitirlow asked'
hint when he intended to fiotah. ' The Counsel replied that he
had rutt nearly done, and that it was customary in this way to
feel the pulse of a new Chancellor. " That may be all very well,"
rejoined his Lordship, "but who is to pay the Doctor?"
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that this ease required further
consithwetion before lie could, venture to pronounce his opinion.—
It appeared that in this bankruptcy, one of the clerks of the soli-
citor under the commission (that clerk being an attorney), wits ep-
pointed a Commissioner. .: This was a moist improper practice,
boomer the consequence would be that this clerk, would after-
wards.tax his master's bill. For the purpose of preventing a re-
currence of such a. proceeding, he should make an order, direeting
that nb solicitor should permit his clerk to be a Commisgiooer in
that Commissioit in which he is acting as solicitor. The case
which, came out of Yorkshire, and which was heard some tints
since, ail a lesson upon this point. In that ease, it was a. com-
plete hargain for fees between the'Fiolicitor and Commissioners.—
A. greet variety of orders had been made in bankruptcy, , and he
would venture to say that these orders had done more good than
2 or 1100 judgments in bankruptcy.
Mei Heats feared, that such an order as his Lordship proposed
to make, would not prevent different ,Solicitors employing each ,
1
other's clerks as Uommisaioners.- ,
MI it" 1.1 ALo having concluded his reply,
The Loan CH4NCELOR intended to carry the order to the st
full extent. There was another sort of proceeding in this case, ran
which he; could not reconcile to his judicial mind. It was said;
that tis bankrupt was not a trader, and it was said. too, that be-
cause the bankrupt was to, pay' Coats, the whole iroceeding was
to be;changed. After a long and laberious life of thought and of
experience, either sitting nit Judge in that 'chair, or in the much um
more Comfortable:Mid enviable place among the Gentlemen of the of
liar, e said he had learnt that he'coold not, And ought not, to re(

before him• would enable hint to. decide it. Notwithstanding all,
that had been said about his' reading papers--the length of
time i it occupied, and so on, lie felt k to he his bounden duty
to proceed in there matte's' according to' the interpretation put
upon the, statutes---an interpretation not put by himself, tint by

,the our that
of i lieverend Dr. SO* and the other of the 'Reverend
Dr. Curtis, ' both of them rcititribtdore, to diffefrent portions
of mr. Tag 'n work, called " The London Encyckpeedio."
Tha. affivavite were read at length.. They admitted that some
porciatut of the plaintiff's work had' been copied,' but denied' that
it had bra carried, to the extent which had been alleged. • • in. •
som instances the compilers 'of the '" Eieyelopeetlia , lifetrolia::.

ietieer," and because the defendant had , taken from the lame
work, they Were saitl to have.pirated the plaintiff `n work, Where:

observation,edght apply to au infiraity.of other ports ot, the wink.
Thel article, • for instance, ; upon the " Arunilelian • Marbles,"
also, said to haie been cople, wail taken from the " Encyclopiedis

Julian Gazetteer. What, therefore, the plaintiff hail ternied
original matter, collected and put together with infinite trouble
and; expence, turned out to be.servile copies, . and the defendant
was to be accused' of copying from those copies, when he, as well
as the plaintiff, might as easily consult the original.

ont some Observations. Mr. Canto shortly spoke on the same

BOW-STU:BT.—An investigation of a rather extraordinary
nature occurred Millis offirenri Wedneaday evening. An elderly well
dressed man, named ...:-- Shonllnook, a foreman in, the, empley of
KerryenciForrest,tailors, oftury-street,Seiantes's,presented him-
self before-Mr. Miateeitita, in the early part of the day, 'end beg-
ged to have his Worships Advice -.—He said his wife ;scented
,hint
a attempting to poison her and her eleven children I—and her
children encornaged her in makieg so unnatural, an accusation
against him. 'As he considered it to be a. conspiracy on the part
of hie fatnily th get rid.of biro, he begged him Worship to have the
parties before him, that he might haeo au , tipportuaity of. excul-
patinghiMself. .Accordingly in the evening be was in attendance
with his friends,, and his wife earne, attended by five or six of their
grown-up sans rind daughters, 'all of them manifesting very un-
becoming feelings towards their fathet. •
Mrs. Sheiollon4oitated that she had been in the habit of hav-
ing a basin of water by her bedside at night, and on the night in.
question," 'icing in bed with her husband and their youngest child,
she topic this, basin and drank some of the water. She thought
it had A very disagreeable taste, hut she gave some to her child,
who, When it had tatted the water, refused to drink, and lacteal*
suddenly very, sick. imagining that there must he something
wrong, in the water, ,she obtained a light, and perceived a. white
sedimentat the bottom of it. She sent this the next morning to
chemiit's, who sent word back, that the whitesediment in the basin
was arsenic; she therefore believed that it was put in the water
by'llet: husband, who hasior, sonic time been jealous of her, and
hak the morning before this attempt on her life, told her that their
youngest child was none of his! ,
The finding of the stuff in the basin, and the alleged jealousy
of the litishand,Avere all deposed to, in a very vindictive strain,
by a female friend of Mrs. Shoolirrook.
The husband asserted his innocence; and Medlieott, an officer,
stated that be took the supposed poisoned water to Mr. Clarke at
Apothecaries Hall, and he handed aletter from that gentleman to
Mr. Minshull, which stated that the sediment found in the basin
wan not poison. , It consisted of sotne small perticlee el lead end
iron, and lime. The lead and iron, it war not at ell unlikely,
might letie been contained in the material of the basin, which
was a:common yellow•one--.4uch as are told in the streets by the
hawkers.
Serieral witnesses on the part of the husband stated that the
child,. which Mrs. Shoolhreok alleged to have been taken sud-
denly,ill on drinking some of the water, had been ill more than
six wrks ; and some of them did not hesitate to say, that this
was'a• charge got up against the husband by his wife, to drive hint
from tome.
Shoalbrook said this was but ton true. lie then asked his
wife's witness if she did 'not airy on the night in question, when
taking thia. haion of water np stairs for his Wife's tree, that the
water was remarkably elear. . , •. ;
This the woman acknowledged haVing said, h4t she Could not
cay wlty she had taken particular notice of the water that night.
Mrl hitstsrau Lt. said there did not seem to him to he the
slightest foundation for the charge; and he thOught the.husband
was vfry much to he pitied.
Sheolbrook said his wife bad now got what she. wanted—a se-
parate n ; for, he could never go home, again. And he added,
very flood-nattiredly, that he did not think she meant to hurt him
in bqging this charge against him.
