In his chapter on education, be has displayed consi-
derable judgment in his selectiun of a plan of universal
education, and to which se particularly refer our
readers. After speaking of the Irish peasantry, at the
conclusion of this chapter, he says—
" It ma* be gest* to any coosiderat; person. that a people,
enjoying the blessings of education, will. Individually. be more re-
spectable, and would, conseleently, be seldom found tumultuously
rising against the lawful Government. They would generally be

Wsgb the following passage, assuming the conse-
quences of the abolition of the present laws to the
farmer, we must conclude our remarks at present—
. 4 we, may fairly voltam this asserdoe, that a great proportion
of those idle youths, who, during the centlunanse of parish relief,
would avaU themselves of the claim they possessed of obtaining
assistance, world, at the abolition et the pour laws, actually become
useful servants in the (amass of the rids, who fregeently employ
more people of this desseiptlas than le abialutely requisite; at any
rate, the very idle and mast Indelem steer young paupers would,
U properly taught, make excellent streams #n the .sesame et the
Nobility and Gentry, where the employment they Nasally gm is
not sine exercise for 011 P greatest part of them. And slue
fashion and the flips* et polite society have made it abseletely
necessary tf keep a number et fellows fee the sake of dleismden
and show, Is It mot better that this useful class of people should be
obetined•trons the country, and regniarly instructed in the arts of
fashion •and dress, thin be auffessed to burden the agricultural inte-
rest with.their abominable idleness?"

LAW INTELLIGENCE:
COURT OF KMOI BENCH. Weavaurstas, NAT 7.

THLIITIM IP. LIATIWIN
This was so sedan on a policy of insurance, tried at
thi last 'Wags in London before-Lord Tenrerden, when
a retail" WAS found for the plaintiff, with leave to move
to have itOt. aside, and a nonsuit entered. The eircum-
stance, under which this leave was given were these—
Ai the trial.. John. M'Allam, the broker who effected'•
thasititurance, was called by the plaintiff as a witness,
but tam- called upon to produce the policy. pursuant
to hii subparts, he refuse() to do so, on the ground
that he had a lien upon it. Lord-Tenterden represented
to him that the only way to give value on the policy
was to produce it, and that. he would have the same
lien uppn the funds the plaintiff might recover as he
bad upon the policy, and that there could be no doubt
the Court would, upon his allegation, impound the
fonds that might arise from the verdict of the Jury till
his claim vyas satisfied. The witness, however, still re-
fused to produce the policy. His Lordship-then told
him that he would be • liable to punishment for a con-
tempt of Court if he did not produce it, and aglin ie-
presented.to him that that course would be much m' re
advantageous than keeping the policy to himself. The
vitae's*, after consulting with Mr. Alderson, who had
bee., retained to advise him, produced. the poison. Mr.
Pollock. far the defendant, then objected to his evistnie
being received, as he wasan interested' witness. Lord
Tenterdeni however. overruled this objection. and the,

This was an action to recover 8,001. being money
bad apd received by the defendant for the plaintiff's'
a.e. The cause was tried a few days back at this place.
when the plaintiff was nonsuited. The defendant was
a pettier an the house of llerries. larquhar, and Co.
and bad received an assignment from a Mr. Gordon,
who was the plaintiff's agent, and who acted under a
poem of attorney given by him. of the off-reckoning
or clothing allowance of the 26a) regiment of foot, to
which the plaintiff was entitled as Colonel of that re.,
ginseNt. Oat of this clothing allowance the clothing
for the regiment ought to have been ;slid. but Mr.
Got don having assigned it to the defendant, the
letter received it foe thief years. The clothing was
in the mean time ordered by Mr. Gordon, but was
never paid for by him. Tice clothing allowance received
by the defendant was appropt iated by him to the settle-
ment of an account Mr. Gordon bad with the banking
house. Mr. Gordon afterwards became a bankrupt. One
of the witnesses for the plaintiff at the trial said, o
cross.ezamination, that the party receiving from a
.Colonel or his agent an assignment of the clothing al.
lowance was by no means bou.ad to pay C.r the clothing.
and that the agent was answerable to the Colonel for
the clothing allowance, as well as for, any surplus that
might remain after the clothing had been paid for.
Upon this the plaintiff was nonsueted.
Mr. Gomm now moved for a rule to have the non-
suit set aside, on the ground that by the terms of the
assignment the defendant, receiving the money as the
clothing allowance, was bound to appropriate it to the
discharge of the clothier's bill; and that, in fact. he
was placed in precisely the same situation as Mr. Gordon
himself.

The COVRT refused' o grant the rule, on the ground
that though the assignment if alone %Inlaid be strong,
from its terms. in favour of the plaintiff. yet that the
practice of army agents made the defendant not liable.
