tune, the pressure of the times, and a failure indis-
posing of his pictures, been reduced to very great pe-
cuniary distress, and was now a prisoner in the King's
Bench, and, as be (Mr. Brougham) feared in ex-
tremely straitened circumstances: his pictures, the
!aim of his life, would, in all probability, be dis-
poet of and dispersed, by being submitted to a
public sale. From the peculiar branEh of the pro-
fession to. which Mr. Hayden had devoted his tune,
large historical pictures, he was placed in difficulties
pecular to himselff his pictures are of such a size
and description that few purchasers could, be found,
and they now remained upon his hands. .He (Mr.
Brougham) could not but consider it as a subject of
considerable regret, that such a collection .his Mr.
Haydon's should be lost to the Public, and he should
be most happy if any mode could be devised for
giving to Mr. Haydon compensation for bis labours,•
and the Public the advantage of having such a va-
luable collection.

• Petitioner, and said, if any plan for his relief could
