COURT OF CHANCERY.
BENNER V. MORTON.

In this case his LORDSHIP had during his Sits!
at Westminster given judgment, but in the tirs
up of the Order some dispute had arisen bete
the parties, respecting its terms, and
Mr. AGAR was instructed to apply to have it:
at the head of the Paper for some early day, t`
spoken to.
His LORDSHIP promised to let the parties
what day would be convenient to him.

ACT OF PARLIAMENT FOR THE REGULAI

OF ATTORNIES AND SOLICITORS.
Mr. ROSE stated, that this petition had bee‘!,
fore the Court so long as prior to last Clay,
vacation. The object of it was, that a Sari
who had been guilty of a conspiracy, and
consequence. of that, had been struck off the rol
the Court of King's Bench, might be also struc
the rolls of this Court. The Learned Counsel
about to enter into the facts of the case, when
His LORDSHIP said there could be no doubt)
ROSE was entitled to the order prayed by his
tion. This Court would never suffer a Solicit'
remain on its rolls who had been guilty of
mal-practices as appeared by the petition, anti
been proved to the Court below.
The order was therefore made.

The Court then proceeded with cause petit,'
but nothing of public importance had occurred s`
we left.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.

At the sitting of the Court this morning,
HONOUR alluded to the great inconvenience
sioned by ale absence of Counsel yesterday/
stated that unless some arrangement were clic'
into, it would be impossible to get through the
arrear of business. lie had yesterday called,'
the paper twice, without being able to procure
sel to proceed with the petitions.
Mr. SUGDEN did not think that any satisfii(
arrangement could be made, whilst the two C.
were coastituted.as they now were.
Mr. HORSE suggested that when the le
Counsel might happen to be engaged befor
Lord Chancellor, the juniors should proceed
the business here. He also suggested that
paper should be called over twice before the,y,,
lions were struck out, as the suitors of the th
would be exposed to incalculable injury, if 0)
cases were to be. indefinitely postponed in ",f
quence of the accidental absence of Counsel o'
particular moment when a case was called on. j
After a great deal of conversation, which le
nothing, f
• His HONOUR enquired whether it Would
convenience of the bar, that he should sit eyed'
until five o'clock. ,
Mr. SUGDEN said, that for his part, Pee
scarcely able to bear up against the fati4
attending for so many hours each day.
pendently of the great labour in Court,
almost impossible for him, even though he reo
up all night, to prepare himself for the busif
the next day, there was really so tnueh to read.th,
The VICE-CHASCELLOR reminded him that
was also a great deal to hear, and added tlls(fr
would remain in Court each day until half-p5l
o'clock.
The cause petition paper was then calleu
and Counsel being ready in Wood v. Prestoo/,
last on the list) it was proceeded with. It was,;
petition of a Mr. Moxton, and it prayed that ce(;,
orders of the Court might be discharged, 01V
grounds that they had been improperly obtaine
