    The Court of Chancery is an admit ted abomination, the infamous defects and powers
of which present obstacles to almost every wise state-object hearing on the social arrange-
ments of England and Ireland. It is a shoreless limbo, throfiged with despairing suitors,
who lie overwhelmed with arbitrary decisions, huge masses of paper, and interminable bills
of costs.-LAw RtEVIEW.
   t The people have a right, and-they feel it, to justice; they.distrust the profesion and
the Government.-LORo BOUGHAM.
    The time is coming when these abuses nuss be dealt with in a bolder and freer spirit,
and when those who now object to inadequate palliatives villibe -foiced, by public opinion, to
submit to sweeping and radical changes.-TiMES.
