Chancery lane (United Kingdom) (search for this): article 5
l compromise, and insisted upon unconditional submission, until the opposite counsel raised a point upon his learned brother which had the most instant and decisive effect. In a word, he threatened to put the whole case into Chancery!--The Devil immediately gathered up his carpet bag on his tail, between his legs, and, with a yell of baffled rage and mortification, broke up the conference. The interminable delays in the Chancery Courts of England were aptly hit off in this satire. Chancery Lane was a long lane, with no turning and no sunshine. The best property in London never came out of Chancery with so much as a whole pane of window-glass or an entire chimney; or, at the best, any other aspect than that of a picturesque ancient ruin. Like the specimen suit of Jarndyce and Jarndyce, lawyers were always "appearing and disappearing in the case, swearing and interrogating, filing and cross-filing, arguing and motioning, referring, reporting and revolving about the Lord Chance
Brougham (search for this): article 5
y. We have been reminded of these interminable delays in the administration of English justice by two paragraphs in the local columns of the city papers, one of which sets forth that Mrs. Patterson Allan has lately re-appeared to answer an indictment for treason; and another, that George W. Elam, indicted for conterfeiting, is again up for justice. If there is anything in English equity at the present day which can equal these specimens of the vital energies of our criminal practice, Brougham has lived and labored in vain. We mean no disrespect to "Mrs. Patterson Allan" or to "Mr. George W. Elam," nor do we pretend to sit in judgment on their guilt or innocence. But we are becoming as nauseated with those two names as with the phrase, "Foreign Intervention." How long they have been appearing and disappearing we do not pretend to remember, but we are scarcely permitted to forget them a few weeks at a time before "Monsieur Tonson come again" to our infinite disgust and indignati

The types announcing the fact seem to be left standing, in readiness for the same impression from term to term,--"Mrs. Patterson Allan, recognized in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for her appearance to answer an indictment of treason," etc., etc. Any one, in that sum, ought to be recognized, no doubt; but it is a question whether, even with the aid of that amount, Mrs. Patterson Allan's best friend will be able to recognize her by the time her case is ended. Summers bloom and fade; and winters come and go; battles are fought; campaign follows campaign; great military reputations are born and die; well-known citizens are borne to their last home, and whole hosts of young soldiers vanish from the earth together, but "Mrs. Patterson Allan" never becomes extinct.--She is always appearing and disappearing, and we verily believe will continue to do the same till the present generation is gathered to its fathers.
