THE SHIP MIRIAM AND JAIt.

This was an appeal from the High Court of Admire!tit
where a suit was instituted by a mariner named Monism:it
to recover a claial of wages from .the owners of the above
vessel. 41
to stay the further proceedings in the suit, on the gringo°
that no proxy was exhibited for the seaman, who was v }lir
Dr. J. ADDAMS, on behalf of fee owners, now applis'.l
~.., ~......-ice.,. had left this country, and was nit likel
to return. Thz application was supported by an affida 4
yr)
which went to state that the suit was carried on by the
Proctor, without the assent of the individual be repro'
sented, and that if the mariner was condemned in cost*
it would be impossible for the opposing party to recoil(
them.
Dr. DODSON objected to the application, and observed.
that if the Court suspended the suit on account of the Or
sence of the mariner, it would put an end to all suits lot
seamen's wages, as, in almost every case, the seaman pro•
ceeded on another voyage whilst the suit was pending.
The Couarr refused the application.
BRISCOE V. BRISCOE.
_ _

Mr. Jarman, Lady Briscoe's Proctor, stated, that the
costs and alimony had been paid to her Ladyship, in pur
suance of the order made by the High Court of Delegated;
Dr. LEE wished to know when the costs had been paid(
Mr. JENNER had no objection to answer that question
if it was put by the Court.
Dr. LEE-I ask the question as a Judge in the cause;
and I call upon the other Judges to join me in makint
some inquiries.

Mr. JENNER. appealed to the Court whether he W 0
obliged to answer Dr. Lee ?

Dr. DetintuNlC, one of the Judges, said the case was Door
dismissed.

Dr. DODSON—We are no longer Judges.
Dr. LEE thought he should be supported by his brother
Judges, and again asked the Proctor for Lady Briscoe, 0
well as the Proctor for Sir Wastel Briscoe, to state the foil
amount of their respective bills of costs.
Neither of the Proctors, however, appeared desirous t°
afford the Learned Gentleman the information he desired'
Dr. LEE declared with great warmth, that he had bee'
tricked out of the opportunity of looking into the costs is
this cause, though he had strongprintafitcie evidence thot,
Drs. Jenner and Arnold had taken illegal fees. He add&
that he could not thank his brother Judges for their cola'
test, for they had declined to support him in discoveripi
what he considered a fraud.

Mr. JENNER called upon Dr. Lee to recollect that l'e
was no longer a judge in the cause, and that he was respolr
sible for his observations as much as any other person.
Dr. LEE said he had spoken only as a Judge, and the
he would not communicate with Mr. Jenner out of tolo
or in his Chambers, should Mr. Jenner call there. He felt
he had done his duty to the public, and he never would
connive at the mat-practices of Proctors, nor of Counge.,
either.

The conversation then dropped, and the Court g►','
dually cleared. Mr. Jenner remained for some time 'r
the Hall, which gave rise to an impression that he v/0
about to accost Dr. Lee, with respect to the scandalous
putations he had thrown out, but the learned Doctor re'
mained quietly seated in his place, for at least half an kolo
after the Court was clear, and then retired without inter.
ruption to his chambers.

We hear remarks on Mr. BROUGHAM'S net'
stationsome observing that it is granted ti
him peculiar favour, while others treat hi'

There is no pretence for either suggestion. The Ina,

such 3
is granted to Mr. BROUGHAM, ranks with the King'
Counsel of the same date. The latter have a Ind
salary—the former has none ; and this saved Mt
itiaosn aa mark
s
one bar
o
BROUGHAM the necessity of vacating his seat in Parlif,
ment. He has this other advantage—that he can hO,
briefs against the Crown in all Government or crimis)
prosecutions ; whereas the King's Counsel cannot do 6f
without special licence from the Secretary of State. TV
this privilege is granted without distinction of party or
is per
son, proved,
by looking to the names of those who he
held it. Amongst others may be named, of those wil°
are gone by, Lord ERSKINE, and Sir WILLIAM GRANS'
Amongst those of the present day, are Sir CHARO'
WErnrRILL, the late. ATTORNEY-GENERAL, and Sir
TINDAL, the present SOLICITOR-GENERAL. That it cr,
be no mark of special favour, is further proved by so many
of Mr. BROUGHAM'S friends having obtained it at t 1)
same time with him ; and we hear it stated amongst til/
profession, and which he himself appears to have confirm
ed at Liverpool, that he would have much preferred r(
taming his former station, if this general promotion had 11C,
been granted to others ; for that a promotion so extense
may possibly injure him on the circuit, where one gentle
man is actually put over his bead.— Tunes.
