of the principles, the purity of the Zench, and the

it is an Englishman's pride to acknowledge, by very
splendid exceptions. Bat 'we ask of our Readers
especially to remember, that it is in cases of distress

of such sufferers ! Prosperity, it it does not harden

tiplkity of business engages them, conduces to this
end, by 'precluding for a time the possibility of any
very considerate estimate of the equity of alleged
claim!. There are many excellent, there are most ad-
mirable characters to be found amongst the members
of the legal profession ; but the axiom upon which

The time we treat is not very far distant when the
English nation will awake to the complicated miseries*
brought down upon Its People, by the enormous ac-
cumulation of its legal enactments. The late Lord
[ Stanhope was employed in the work of simplifying
4he Statute Book, and we earnestly hope some Mlle
et sufficient leisure and information will devote his
W. to the completion of the Herculean task. We
[earnestly hope that the minds which are setiovsly
itispressini with the open, occasional, and useless
creelty of sanguinary punishment, will ascend to the
tosert and silent hut constantly operative systeni• if
tonere and of plander,encovraged by the perplealtlels
of the law, generally taken.

French Papers to the 20th inst. have arrived since
our lasts It is stated froM Madrid, that a compro-
mise is likely to take place between the Spanish Go-
vernment and the-United States, in segard to the Flo-
ritlas. A sum of money will quiet all the angry feel-
ings of the Spanish Court, and fur this (a round sum
of course) it is understood the provinces, about'the
invasion of which so much has ,been said, will be
ceded without resistance. That Si*le will accept this
sort of compensation, we can readily believe, and -she
is wise thus to turn her losses to the best account.
Spain could not by any effort of her own dispossess
the Ame;icans or defend the provinces; and the in.
terference of England for Spanish objects, would be
no less objectionable on the score of espence than the
jealousy which it must. excite among other Powers,
and consequently endanger the tranquillity of Ru.
rope, which we are told mast by no means be dis-
turbed.

An article in the Madrid Oficial Gazette states,
that the obligations relative to the subject of claims
between the Governments of France and Spain being
declared reciprocal by an additional article in the,
Treaty of the 30th of July, 1814, it has been agreed,
" that one moiety of the total som due by France
shall remain in deposit, io the hands of an (vial
number of Commissioners of each nation, untiLithel
%%Irish Government shall have provided fonds
to
liquidate the French claims." The Spanish claimants'
will receive interest for the sum deposited.
