Mr. RouPELL movva, that 'hi, Lordship ,yould

'[lie LORD CHANCELLOR--Really it seems to be
the general opinion that there is no necessity
whatever for she vi jog any titercy to the Judges in
the Court of CilauC'ery. The regular order of
husinesS seems nosy t,4! be totally interrupted, and
parties thin{; they have n more to do than come
forward with motions whenever they chase, and
trey will always he sure to get a hearing. how
can auftuan get through business when such iire
gularity is always going on ? Scarcely a single day
elapses in which I am not harassed with 30 or 40
of thvse motions, %yid) a .Nish from the parties
.that I should answer them, and send them to the
Vice-Chancellor. If I am to be always troubled
with such applications, where is the use of my pro-
fessing to hear Bankrupt Cases, which are now so
pressing to be beard, tir appointing any of them
to be beiLd before his Honour ? —Though .a great
many, petitions have been heard, we have yet nearly
lie hundred to go over. I really must say that
the Judges of this Cana • are by no means treated
with that respect which they deserve, for I Fundy
believe !hat out of these 40 motions .whiCh daily
are made, there arc. 35 that might with as much
prop' ley have been made six mouths ago. I don't
at all Ilte, such wasting of the time of the Court,
and must insist that more vspect be in all time
coming shewn to regularity in the proceedings.
I .must -ill this" case insist on an affidavit batty tiied
by your client, i\lr.•ltnupell.
'Mr. Itour.,t.t.—lle lives, my Lord. at Bristol.
The j..401;.D CrtANC.Lott-1 don't care,

such motions ,as are matte to tne without i!ffidav,its.
For, this once 1 allow your agent in town to stake
an aft944eit• that he has brought forward the nio7
tion as soon as he was convinced of its being ne-
cesSarv; and let it be now understood that those
who prepare motions for Counsel ate not to act
as they please, or bring them forward when it is.
agr;eable to themselves, because I must and shall
on every occasion refuse every' altlication made
to die Out (;f rt1...,,n1ar order, unless some extraor-
dinary grounds are matie out to jostify.,its being

valuable to.he placed at the disposal or caprice of
