unable to inherit their talents, I shall at least reap

force 'obedience to the laws which the Chamber has

impartiality that order' which elucidates our discus-
slims., and that beetles% of opinion which, whilst
it respects persons, ensures the triumph of troth.
" Faithful to' these principles, I shall seek the
