Lord Chancellor Chelmsford has carried out to the last his Tory addi- tions to the magistracy in country towns. During the last few days his Lordship has appointed three more justices to the already over-burdened bench at Great Yarmouth. The gentlemen selected are Mr. F. Worship, Mr. E. P. Youell, and Mr. I. Clark, all Conservatives. There were be- fore twenty-seven names in the commission. In his last agonies as Chancellor, Lord Chelmsford also appointed two Conservative Magistrates at Bath in the place of one who died on Monday,. and whose successors were appointed on Tuesday week. Sharp practice, my Lord.
An application was made on Saturday to the Liverpool Magistrate on be- half of four Chilian gentlemen. They had been arrested during one of the periodic revolutions in those parts, packed off to sea in an English merchant ship and consigned to the Chili= Consul at Liverpool. The master of the ship, faithful to his contract, landed them at Liverpool. They now seek redress.
The Liverpool Magistrate has committed the master for trial, but has liberated him on heavy bail.
