It appears to be the unanimous sense of the House, that some augmentation ought to be made in the salaries of the Judges. He should also propose some further increase to the salaries of the Welsh Judges.

The salary of the Chief Baron wits tiow hut UM/. per annum, and that of the !mime JudgesSooo/. Besides the diminution of these salaries from the Property and Assessed Taxes, the averageexpence of going the Circuits stood them in something more than 5001. annually. With such dimi buttons, the puisne Judges were unable to rapport themselves in that respectable situation which became their rank, unless Spey happened to have private fortunes, or not t o b e encum ered with families. The smallness of their salaries was such, that it prevented in a great measure the situation of a Judge from being the honourable object of ambition to those who might be the best qualified to fill the station. It must be al; lowed *hut it had not as yet prevented the Bench from being filled with persons eminently fit for it ; but still he knew that to ny nrofessional met, who had families, conceived they could go: accent the situation of poisne Judge, without a most incon 4e, e•c pecuniary sacrifice.
