GRAND CRICKET MATCH,
On Tuesday last a grand Cricket Me:cch was played at the
Albion Ground, Islington, between tile Albion Club and the
Mitcham Club, in the presence of a numerous concourse of spec.
tators. The Albion Club took the first innings, which lasted
from 10 until 11 o'clock, making 87 runs. The Mitelent Club
took up the hat and maintained their ground manfully for six
hours, notching 167. The Albion Club again commenced, and
were bowled out in two hours, with only 44 to their credit, being
thus beat single-handed, the Mitcham Club doing more in one
innings than the Albion had done in two. The amateurs were
amply gratified at the close of the game by an accidental tursi-wp

between

of calamitous coincidences and casualties," three of their best
players were taken off, and they threaten syhat they will do to
retrieve their honour when the return match comes to be played
on the Green at Mitcham. The Mitcham men glory in their
victory, and say, they await the event without dismay.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

rord'Palnierstort, Chaims= of the Devon and Cornwall
Mining Association, is becoming- more circumspect from',
experience. His Lordship, at a former meeting of that!
Company, was stated to have formed intimacies with cer.S
taint men, who derived. from the countenance of the noble'
Lord such influence as enabled them to mislead and ruin
others. His Lordship not liking, we at first took for.
granted, to have reflections of such a provoking nature
dispersed abroad by those unmannerly caitiffs the news
papers, resolved that yesterday's meeting of the Company
should be protected from any such mischance: for the,
Noble Lord is said to have issued the most rigorous orders
that none but shareholders should be on any account atl-
mitted; in which elute it. maysperhaps be surmised, that a'
Mote lugubrious assemblage of faces was not to he !met.
with anywhere. But it was alleged, as :we afterystards
found, that a defence of, the accused partie,s was to be
broiight forward yesterday, and with the privity of the
noble Secretary at War. If, therefore,' his Lordship was,
on this occasioO anxious to shut out the public, he placed
his friends under process of accusation in rather an odd
predicament. He -suffers the charges to be circulated by
the saucy and intractable press ; but when the answers
come to be presented, the doors are shut in the reporter's
faces—a proceeding to us not easily intelligible, unless his
Lordship was enough in the secret to know that the de-'
fence would be such as to confirm or aggravate the arcss
cation. It is, hoWever, an indirect proof of wisdom to be,
." a child of darkness" rather than of light."—Times.
We yesterday noticed the strange perversion of intellect
which could lead the Lord Chancellor to lay:it down that
there was noharm in ruining a man by a Chancery litiga-
tion of 'between twenty or thirty years, for having been SO
as to follow that course in disposing of an estate,
which Lord Thurlow had been so honest as to propose for
the adoption of a vender, of an estate purchased by himself.
If, according to the Chancellor's logic, a man is aware of
the advantage which may be taken of hiM, under the rules
of the Court of Chancery, if be fellow a certain eourse,
why he ought :to avoid that coarse; and, if he is not aware
of ~it, he has no right to blame the, Court ; the Court is
not in fault—he might to blame his own ignorance—it
being the fairest thing in the world that ignorance of trick
and chicitne should entail rain on a man.. But we are not
so much surprised that his Lordship can see nothing wrong
in the Court of Chancery ; it is natural for hint to view
the process of fleecing a man much in the same way as
cook :views the process of skinning .an, eel. Yesterday,
his Lordship, however, took a still bolder flight, and main-
._tained that it was impossible the power of imprisoning
could be abused :
" If it were supposed that it was the wish of any man to keep
another,unneeessarily in prison, he could only say that those who
thought to, were greatly mistaken. He had never heard of mocha
. man yet, And hoped he never should."
-Why, then, all the invectives of divines and moralists
against hard-hearted creditors, who allowed tiObtors to rot
in gaol, though satisfied that they were without the
means of paying one farthing, merely from a cruel and yin-
(fictive feeling----all these invectives—all the Reports of
Societies for the Relief of Poor Debtors—all the state»
mews made in and out of Parliament to excite compas..
tion and sympathy for that class of persons, are pure delu-
sion. The Lord Chancellor tells us that there never was
a man kept in prison from any other but the beat of mo-
s gives, or kept in it a moment beyond the proper time.—
Wefear his Lordship, in denying, in this manner, the
ioexistence of such a passion as revenge, has been led
astray by his own milkiness of disposition. There are
Vindictive persons, however, in the world, at many people
have found out to their cost, long before attaining the age
tat the end of which hit Lordship has remained In happy
ignorance of their existence.—/Iforning Chronicle.
The accounts front the different ,Assizes furnish addi
tional instances of the marvellous facility with which both
Judges; and CQUOSei recommend parties to refer their
causes to,arhittation. This is a striking tritimidi of coin-
won sense over legal aequitements and professional habits.
To be sure, =mug the class of " Learned Gentlemen," it
affords no very remarkable share of self-denial ; for, having
had their fees for the declarations, the pleas, the demur-
rers, the rejoinders and sur-rejoinders, for advising on the
proofs, and for their briefs and consultations, nothing
more remains for them to receive, unless it be on moving
to make the award of the arbitrator a ride of Court—so
that, whether the cause be at last tried by a Judge and
Jury, or by a referee, makes but very little difference to
shent. , But where is the common sense,of clients upon
Such Occasions? Either they are entitled to. have their cause,
decided by the tribunal to :which they hive, at so much
expense, Appealed, or it would have been wiser to have
deferred the matter itt dispute to arbitration at first, before
the" Learned (gentlemen" had obtained so much of- their
money. This is so obvious, anti these references are lies
come so much the practice of the Courts, that we wonder
parties do not see the extreme folly of paying so largely to
lawyers for assistance, which • they ultimately do not re-
ceive. We wondel, too, that some honest lawyers them.
selves, seeing the tendency of the Judges towards this
practice, do not themselves establish a system of arbitra-
tion upon a more extensive scale than it has hitherto ex-
isted.. At any rate, there can be no doubt but that the
topici; which give rise to half the causes which are brought
into our Courts, both of Law and Equity, could be better
.decided out of them; and are, at last, in fact, so decided,
after the leWyers have in the end discovered what the
party4hemselves ought to have seen in the first instance.
It is most extraordinary that persons of good understands
log should :suffer themselves to be led by the nose and
hoodwinked by crafty attoruies, who have an evident
interett in misleaug and bamboozling those whom they
prOfesa to serve. it is quite aatonishing, for instance,
that an intelligent anerehant or 111111 of business should surs
render hif understanding for ti time to. a mere quibbling
technieidist, who, after having -led hint through all the
mazes of legal subtilty and expellee, coolly tells him that
one or two people of his own business or profession are
the best judges of the dispute which he has in hand.--
...Does not common sense and every day's experience tell
each a man that what thus become the denial resort is
that, which he should have first applied to ? And why,
we would ask? can such is man, with any claim to pm-
dance or consistency, consent to be first mulct ed by these
• harpies, and find himself at last none the better for the
elan-Moils expense which they have entailed upon him ?

to give the folloWing cenfutation of some of the errors
and missatatements with which, as is customary with that

r . ,skiiinoria a eons attempt on the

part of Mr. C.:to obtrude himielf, in opposition to a
rule, into the • presence of his Majesty, and being disap-
pointed, he has published a varnished statement of his re-
ception, the inaccuracies of which it is -not thought proper
should go unanswered.—Morning Post.
The more we consider the subject, the more we are per-;.
suaded that there is a sort of alternate rise and fall—a sort
of stunmer and winter, in the state of trade, which neither
foresight can prevent,nor wisdom remedy—which depends
on causes, over which human ingenuity can exercise no
controulwhich begins, proceeds, and. terminates by laws,
as fixed and as immutable (generally speaking) as those
Which regulate' the motions of the heavenly bodies.—
Though we may alleviate our sufferings—though we may
provide for_ such crises, by contriving -.methods to protect
ourselVes against their consequences—all .the endeavours•
of the human mind, as at present constituted, will be found
incapable of effectually. preventing such, seasons of • cala-
mity. An article in the Edinburgh Review proposes three
remedies for the present distress. After going into a long
detail, to show that 'over-production is the- cause of the
late revulsion, and making an observation on the' euCou-
ragement given by Government to speculation, by pro,
muting the reduction of interest:, the Reviewer concludes
as follows
We hope we have , sufficiently indicated the various means by
which the temptation to engage in these improvident enterprises
may he most effectually diminished, and their pernicious comae-
(pence* mitigated or averted: the first consists iu the establish-
ment of such a system of free intercourse with other countries as
would give greater steadiness both to the demand for, and the
supply of, commodities the second, in placing of the currency on
suds a secure and solid foundation, as would prevent such violent
oscillations in its amount and value as have been experienced since
1793 : and the third, in the more general diffusion of sound infor-
mation among all classes of the community, but especially among
merchants. The details into which we have entered show how
very ill the tine principles of commerce and of money are yet
understood by the public. Had our bankers and merchants been
generally aware of the circumstances which determine the value of
money, and the tests by which it may always be discovered when
it is becoMing redundant, and when therefore a recoil iney be ex-
pected, it is quite impossible that the late crisis could have oc-
curred. The danger would have been foreseen while it was time
to avert it, and bankruptcy and ruin would not have assailed us at
the very moment we were boasting mod loudly of our, prosperity.
The views of the writer are evidently contracted, and
the remark concerning the reduction of interest is one of
those to which Opposition writers have of late been so
frequently reduced, a quibble against a measure, which
was, originally approved by those Veil writers themselves.
If Lord Liverpool might have destroyed all the means of
speculation, he could then, no doubt, have prevented over-
production. The lowness of interest was evidently bene-
ficial to trade, and the Edinburgh Reviewer would do well
to recall to hii recollection the remarks of that Journal on
the Usury Laws the next time he takes it in his head to
criticise the measures of Government. If Lord Liverpool
could say to the sea with effect, " Hitherto shalt thou go
and no further," he might with. reason be blamed for pro-
moting what is good in itself, because it has been carried
so far as to become bad. • Till the Reviewer can point out
how the exact proportion of supply to demand is 'to be
determined, and what portion of the supply is to be as-
signed to each trader, he may tell us' very wisely what's
o'clock till doomsday, without our being able to regulate
e political machine to his time.-British Press.
