Thus, then, the offices, which Lord Ellenbo-
rough (in a letter inserted in the report before men-
tioned) states to be directly saleable, amount in their
yearly receipt to the sum of 12,4051. and odd, and
then the holder of those offices appoint others to
offices, worth the rest of the 1,9641. Lord Ellen-
borough does not, it appears, sell the office of Chief
Clerk: be keeps that in trust of others for his own
appointments • and, of course, he, as holding the
office of Chief Clerk by the means of Trustees, ap-
points the second set of offices, which, as we see,
bring in 6,2371. and some odd a year ; and, as the
Chief Justice may sell the office of Custos Brevium,
he may, of course, include in the worth of it, the
worth of the offices, whose possessors are appointed
by the Custos Brevium and it is expressly stated
ill the report, that the offices held under the appoint-
ment of the Custos Brevium are considered to be
saleable.

Well, thee, Geotlemen, you are now very com-
petent to judge arthe assertions of Sir Francis, as
to the salary, the sinecures, and the saleable offices,
of the Lord Chief Justice. There now remains only I
the JAI LER'S EMOLUMENTS, in which Sir
Francis is represented as having said that Lord El-
lestborough participates. The words are: that Lord
Ellenborough, "besides his salary, receives in sine-
cures, 8,9901. a year, besides having offices to sell,
and PARTICIPATING IN THE EMOLU. 1
?VENTS OF IBIS OWN JAILER." To this last
assertion it is, that Mr. WILLIAM JONES, Mar-
shal of the King's Bench, has given a fiat denial, in
a letter, which has been published, apparently, in !
all the London Newspapers, and of which the fol.
lowing is a copy, as published in the Times News.

"re the Editor of the Timcs. SIR,•--It is a I
duty I owe to to Lord Ellenborough, to the public,
and t myself, to contradict, in the most express and
ssi,e4oivocal terms, au unreserved and groundless
assertion made by Sir Francis Burdett, in his Ad- I
dress to the Electors of Westminster, published its '
the Times of the 3d instant. On that occasion, he
peremptorily accuses the Lord Chief Justico of tho
King's notch, of andaly participating in my official
emoluments, as .111wshal of the Prison. of that Court.
I accordingly declare, with all the solemnity sailed
to a public asseveration of this serious nature that
no one dues purticiinde, or ever has particYpaled,
with me, in any wag whatever, in the advantages or
benefits which I derive iron: any situation; and that,
coesequettily, the charge made by Sir Francis Bar.
iota, as already espressed, is wholly without founda-
tion. I hold my office by the especial appointment
of the King, under his Majetty's Royal Sign Ma-
lawi', according to an Act of the 37th of George IL,
`whereby the power of granting the office of the
Marshal of the King's Bench is vested in the Crown ;
and, in the language of the instrument by which I
have been unn.initted to it, with all its profits, per.
quisites; privileges, and advantages ; in which, I re-
assert ,so one has ever participated with me.—The
public refutation of such a charge, so boldly made,
is a duty which it becomes me to perform, and I
trust I have now performed it.
46 I am, Sir, your very obedient servant,
WM. JONES, Marshal.
