[TIM R EPRnMENTATIVP.]

Letters from St. Petersbilrgh inform UR that there i,
nuch discontent prevailing in some circles of that city
vith respect to the manner in which the High Court for
tying the conspirators is composed, and we perceive that

the Courier Francais of .the.Sth is in some degree of the
same opinion as the St. Petersburgli radiealc. It is ob-
jected, it appears, to the Court•instituted 4), the Emperor
Nicholas, that it is too numerous, and has the misfortune
of containing Ain-mat all the persons who, from rank, legal
knowledge, or official situation, throughout the empire,
are deemed fit for such a duty.: If this,be the only com-
plaint that ran be made agOnst the Tribunal, we think
both Judges and accused very happy ; the former in being
exposed to calumny not more vehement, and the latter in
being assured of a Tribunal against which the only accu-
sation tenable is the number of honourable men of which
it consists. But it is in vain to conceal that there are

many persons in Russia who are discontented with the
present Government. Some—very few however—are
bitten by the Jacobin madness, and wish for an effort
to make the Russian boors as sanguinary against the
Nobles as were the canailk of Paris, in the days of
the Reign of Terror. But there are no materials for this
class of politicians in Russia, nor does there appear any
likelihood of any such existing for a hundred years to come.
The army, however, which is large—perhaps far too large
for the necessity of the State, -is in general anxious for
employment, and grieved that the pacific policy of the
Emperor keeps them from the " tented field,"---4,m1 the
Clergy
feel afflicted that war is not immediately waged
against: the Turks, for their great obstinacy in acknow-
ledging Mahomet as iPprophet. In short there are causes
of vexation in abundance*xisting in Russia ; and however'
absurd they may bei the conspirators who made their feeble
stand against the Emperor on the day of hia,proelainatian,
have excited a great degree of interest. We have no
doubt every thing will be carried: on with as Much justice
as possible„ but the Emperor must have a strict eye on
the party which instigated the conspirators. There are
elements of discontent in Rulisia that do not require many
months to become very troublesome,

COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY 7.
COLEMAN-STREET CHURCH.
FANLE. PRATT AND OTDEILS.

'Mr. Shadwell appeared for Mr. Pratt, who WAS the suc-
cessful party on both oicasions. Two bills were filed, the
original bill by Mr. Payle, and the cross bill by Mr. Pratt.
The lAA. Cheocellor declared the first election, by ballot,
illegal and void; and then followed the second election, by
poll. Mr. Shadwell now proposed that the Plaintiff in the
original cause should pay his own costs, and all the costs
of the Trustees and Clerical Defendants in that cause;
and that Mr. Pratte should do the same in his cross cause.

Mr. Solicitor-Oeneral claimed costs for the Bishops,
for whont.ha,appeared,.as between solicitor and client, on
all costs, charges, and expellees.'
Mr. Hart did the smile on the part of the trustees,
Mr, Su to was Counsel for Mr, Fayle, who had

His Lordship believed Mr, Stirlen knew more of .ths
feeling he' had been alluding to than be did,
he spoke from experience tied feelingly. Indeed, he
thought his client ouglit to have the costs of the suit in
which he was plaintiff, because hehad succeuded in set-
ting aside the eleetion •whieb was the, object of the bill;
at any rate, he strongly objected to the trustees, and the
Bishops ofLondon and Canterbury, having their costs, as
prayed, the cents beitig to be paid by the parties, and not
out of the fund. The priir,tice he took to be, that trustees
were rid their costs, charges, and expenees when
