Established 1823. "an. '5 - )2 ‘KW ASSOCIATIVE ENTERPRISE. (Press the New York Tribune.) Wn learn that a number of believers in the doc- trine of Cooperative Industry and Economy have urcliasod the estate of Dr. Kin , and some _ds adjoining, at Perth Ambcy, . J., in order to establish there an Industrial, Edu- cational and Domestic Association, upon the principles set forth in their visions pectus, which, tho intend circulation, we copy low for the ipfcrina ‘on of the many persons who might des re to in in the enterprise, but would not otherwise be aware of its existence or nature. Th domain consists of seine 270 acres of excellent land in order, well situated, with beautiful groves, and an abundance of pure spring water. The distance frcni this City is some twenty-six miles, water communication, and is accomplished by steamboats in two hours. c domain hasa water front of three-eighths of a mile, where wbarfs can be easily built, oflaring cveia con- venience fcr transporhtion to and rom e As- sociation. Having acquired the property on ihir terms, the founders intend at once to pro- ceed with substantial improvements, which will large y increase its productive utility, and ren- der the stock of the institution a secure and valuable investment. In treating wi those who desire to become members, they contem- late the most liberal course, as will be seen by e following: _ PIDVIIIONAL rnosi-acres or ran IAIITAN an 1: ion N . “ A few friends who desire a higher form of Union in Industry, Education and Social Life than is found in existing sociea, havb sc- cured a position at the mouth of e Raritan River, near Perth Amboy, New-Jersey, where they purpose, unpledged to any social tlieor as yet presented, ractically to apply such princi- ples of Joint took Association as commend themselves to conscience and common sense. The domain, consisting of two hundred and seventy acres of fertile and easily cultivated land, well-watered, healthy, open to the sea air, and combining rare beauty with unsur§as- sed business advant:(ges, is eas of access om New York and Phil elphia, an presents every needed facility for safe and cheap transportation of roduce. goods and manufactures.

Man of our readers will,_ rlmps, recollect that w en the County Courts gill was first sub- mitted to the consideration of the ' ihe law rsopposcd it in every posai le way, except y argument. They were wise enou in their generation to know, that their endea- vour to convince the people, by any argument they could use, that cheap law would not be a benefit to them, would be altogether futile; but, where argument fails, it is said, ridicule often succeeds; and this proverb was not lost upon the legal fraternity, who retained the services of an artist celebrated for his caricature sketch- es, and who produced before their deli hted eyes what he was leased to desi to a “ toh of a Local Court, ’ such as mig t be expected when the County Courts’ Act came into opera- raticn. It represented the presiding judge in the act of throwing an inkstand at a member of the bar, while the learned gentleman for whose head it was destined, was putting his thumb to his nose, and inviting the learned Judge to “ take a si ht.” The crier of the Court was enga d in coping order, by break- ing the heads o the suitors with a stafi', die. There wasa degree of uiet satire in all this, more than the artist per ups, intended: hr in the new court, the most disorderl people even as represented by him, were the awyers them- selves. Nevertheless copies thereof were posted in awry law stationer a shop window, and many a barrister called the attention of his friend thereunto, with the anticipation that no County Court could stand for a week after ing so held up to ublic ridicule. But alas ! their disintereste anticipations have been al- together disappointed, and perhaps, ere long the same artis may be induced to furnish the public with a sketch of one of the superior courts of Westminster-ball in 1853, represent- ing a terrible row of the “ briefiess " taunting- ly asked by the Chief-Justice “ If they have any t ing to move,” to which the can 0 reply by a melancholy shake of the e suc- cess of the County Courts is, to use a modern phrase, a hcteecomplisbed. To rove this as- sertion, I have only to refer to a paper nblish- ed this week, by order of tbeilouse of one relative to His ii in the dihrent courts during the year 185 . It includes a re- turn of the total number of plaiats entered in each court, distinguishing those for sums above £20, and not exceedin £50 ; and the total number of plaiats entcre in each coui-t,by con- sent of the parties under the 17th section of the Act extending the jurisdiction of the County Courts; of the total number of causes tried fhy each court; of the number of a bee and the result: the total amount o the moneys sought to be reoove ; the amount for which judgments were obmined, exclusive of cosh; the number tied by ajury, he. The above re- turn extends over u wards of forty ordinary sised Pa menhry blu I k. course it would be quite impossible in the co- lumns efe newspaper to ' even the abstract of each of the above returns. All Icen do is to direct theettention of your reedus to a general statement of the prcceedi in L851, and then appears t 793, and in the llowing year 441,384, an increase in the latter year over of 44,791; the total nuflsr. of 0| it 5|! t reeedhig . t the total nuihber of yltthissued in 1850 wes396,- a t c more extraordina ,w IIPJBNC, that the total numberrdf 1 ts to reoo- - ver sums “ above £20" was 13, , Under the old system ,eacb of the last-mentioned cases must have been tried by ajury, at a cost to the parties of more than three times ‘ amount of the debt. "Daria the present , several cases have been tri by e 'ury in superior courts, which were enter on the l tas “ un- dcfended.” If such was the case, .V bat ques- tion was there left for the jury ‘U “ try!" Having been duly sworn to “ try’ issue be- tween the 3:-ties, they were told by thejudge tthoyhadnosnch e why and that, the whole dilpute had h a judge's order, compelling t a it (what he ought never to he ‘hen w- ed to deny) the fact that the amount claim of him wasjustly due, but even thi admission ° the ratification of a jury tr make it of any avail to the plaintill. Of course, in these cases, proceedings had been then before the Common law Procedure Act came hto opera- -tion. But to return to the subject of my letter. pears that the tohil number of - ints for which were tri was only 8,236; from the result of these s 38 pp- pca only were made; in eleven of which e eoision of the County Court was confirmed- in only eight instances was such ddision rever- ; and in 15 cases, in which the parties gave notice of appeal, they afterwards ebaudoncx‘ the notice so given, owing, perb!, to “ misfortune ” of their no&'hhavii§._a “legal adviser ” at their e retro admits tint t-be " number , , tried ury, has not increased with the lsr ess of emands. From a careful peruse o persons acquainted -with these interstin do- cuments know requiros no small degree 0 pa- tience, I gather the following curious facts, vis . The average amount sued for in each County Court varies considerably. In the agricultural districts, the sums claimed by each suitor, greatly exceed the amount claimed in the ma- nufacturing districts. In the first of these cases, the majori of claims are for “ wa s.” What will the fatyled friends of the agricul- tural labourer say to this “fact.” The truth of the above statement is established by the “ return,” which states, that in the purel agricultural county of Sussex, the sum obtain (excluding the Bri bton Court) averaged £5 a zplaint, while in hginchester it avoregcd but £ a ' t; andin the other towns, such as Mace esficld, Stockport, &c., it is lower still‘. At Bristol it is but £2 10 a plaint, while at Plymouth (East Stonchouse Court it is £3 9. In the Court at Shirley-bridge, w ich includes in its circuit, Darlington, South Shields, Stock- ton, Hartlcpool, and other places, the popula- on of which consists of miners and the she keepers dependent on them, the average, is 2., while eamount sued for in the by Court circuit, gives £5 a plaint. With rega to the Metropo itan Courts, a similar avcra return is 'ven, with the details of which I wi not tmubfial your readers. I will merely state, that the lowest is the Court at Bow, viz., £2 2, a laint, and the highest that of the Court at cstminster, which is £5 16, from which latter account I infer, that however anxious the worthy inhabitants of Westminster may be to have justice (to use an old phrase), brought to their very doors, they are equally anxious that they should be charged as little as possible for travelling ex nses. Westminster Hall is as - near the resi ace of most of them as the West- minster Coun Court ; ‘but, iiotwithstandin all the interesting associations connected wl the former, they prefer the latter as a medium through which to recover debts under £50. The fict is, the people prefer courts of common sense to common law, and havin experienced the benefits of cheap law, are etermlned to keep them. It is of no use for lawyers or agri- culturists to hlk about protection; and the sooner the persons take the hint the better, for they ma depend upon it, Church Refonn can- t l rbedcla . no mac onge yed Till SKATER AND THI WOLVES.
