TO T. TAYLOR, Esq. No. 9,' New Bridge-street, London

HoNnuftED
IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal,
which, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalsevere eburses of salivation, and twice dis-
charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to
be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period
to my existenw—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
one on each arn;, and my legs were broke out in a frightful
manner ; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a-
state of ulceration for the last seven years ; iny left had also
two large nodes On it, was very much discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed,
as nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J.. Thompson, (who received so
great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which I began to do on the 2fitb o. May ; in the course of a
fortnight I began to receive benefit -in little more than a
month the ulcers on my headZind arms were soundly healed—
soon after, the sores On toy legs-healed also ; leaving, how-
ever, considerable discolouration in the skin, and pain in the
bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little
.•
longer persevranee in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
former complaints—have recovered my former spirits and
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having
continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew
me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but
beg you, for the good of other .suffering mortals, to make
this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa-
sion; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very bumble servant,
ALEX. M URKER.

FOR THE SUN.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' AGENTS.

EDlTOR,—Having observed a great deal
in your Yager concerning the Agents of the In-
solvent Court, permit me to add a few flues ors
the subject, although it has been ably handled
by others, and unanswered on clie part of the
Agents. •

The injury sustained by the Profession of the
Law is incalculable, and the worthy Commis-
sioner who presides must be fully Aware of, and
will shortly assist to rectify it. The only justifi-
cation that I recollect to have 'been wade fur

• .
these Nondescripts in the Law is, that " a iFoata>s.
may fill tip a Schedule." Nov, Sir, if the Agent's
practice confined itself merely to:filling'up a Sche-
dule, perhaps little mischief might ensue; but
when we consider, that alter filling up the Sche..
Jule there eae Hearings, Re-hearings, Special
Motions, Appeals, Habeas Corpus, Bankrup. t•
t;aes, Appearancei, Pleas, and other Pleadings,
Trials, Writs of Error, 8,-c. AT all of which
is carried on by the Agent, it must clrarly p -
pear to every impartial Reader that the inconve.
nience does not terminate in " filling up a She•
dale ;" for many branches shoot from the parent
stock• equally detrimental to the Profession, awl
points out the mischief with all its consequential
train of evils. .

A man possessing the least spark of gratitude
+ ill again employ an Agent who has filled up his
Schedule, and been otherwise instrumental in ob=
taining his discharge from prison, and will recons•
mend the Agent in future. Thus all thc,Convey-
ancing, Chancery, Common Law, and other busi-
ness in the power of a dischargediplnsolvent, will
fall into the hands of some Agent, who will trans-
act the same in the name of a regular Attorney,
_unable to procure his own annual Certificate, and
reduced to tire painful necessity of accepting it
from the hands of an Agent. This, Sir, is the
actual case ; for no Attorney who can procure hi*
own Certificate will stoop so low as to receive
this favour of an Agent—by these means Insolvent
Agents, who have served no Clerkship, and ars
ignorant of the Law, are put upon an equality
with respectable Attornies who have devoted
their whole time to the Profession at a great ex-

pence.
Upon inquiry it will also be discovered that
most of these Insolvent Agents have been them-
&dive.; lately discharged from some prison, and,,
.having neither money, home, nor friends, repair
to the purlieus of Chancery-lane, associate with
the common and special Bail-Men, by way of iai-
tiation, and shortly commence business as Agents
for themselves.—'These abuses of the Law, to-
'tether with the w?hole rose of Insolvent Agents,
no doubt will be shortly exterminated, and the
practice of the Superior courts revert to its former
and legitimate channel.---Your coltinws have been
the public vehicle for exposing the'Agents' Mega-.
lity, and the service you have' rendered to the Comm
mumity at large, and the Profeision in particular,
will not be forgotten or overlooked.
An unaccountable apathy has been hitherto
evinced by those who are, or ought to he, most
interested. Let them now _(as Parliament will
shortly assemble) Come forward in a body, and
pursue speedy'and radical Meastrres to restore the
Practice of the Superior Courts to its right
owners. I am, Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

AITORNATLTS.
