to give it your most serious attention. For we must
consider that the effect Of it, if it should DO adop,
by the Legislaure will be create fifty new Courts
OF Justice, to be pre- ided over By City ner Judges
and each OF these courts to be attended with the e,
adjustment which is necessarily connected with

TIE rose 70 make grlevous complaint against Sir
Thomas Denman. the Attorney General, for having
made at TIE late nottingham Election as n & Bo-

My sentiments "a to the Vote by Ballot are we'll
known to you all but, if the majority of NV consti,u
enS shall say they cannot exercise their privilege of
eection without It, my support shall be given 10 IT,
Shall use my utmost efforts against the Borouoh-
mongers! And affirm TO you that the power which
has called forth from nobeman that scandalous and
wicked interrogatOry. sis it not lawful for me TO do
what will with mine OWN" ought to be abolished by
the law of the land. With respect to the o,her
points, namely, the Abolition of the Slave Trade and
the Corn Laws can say that the Iabours of the
present Ministry will be directed to effect the former
and hope that, although the Corn Laws must he
abolished by degrees, the time VIII soon arrive wben
that as well as every other trade, will be as free ne
Nature and Providence make it."
These are the words Of the Attorney General, as
reported IN the newspaper, excellent words thew
are They Contain an honest dennnciation of ,b,

castle belongs the wicked set; bnt repeat that boz
roughnopgers are the most crucl most wicked most
mschinvons OF wrctchos. The Duke cornploncd M, :
tcry' nnd would have It that the Attorney General
meant TO ai'ude to him, and after his complaint he
went on expressing his hope that in the present
oil the country, the Ministry would not apitote the
question OF reform and, speaking of tho Ballot be
used these remarkable words;
lie trusted that no Ministry would ever permi, INV
