Causes of Dear Divorce. Concerning the recent remarks of Mr. Bingley, the Marylebone magistrate, in dealing with the necessity of obesp divorce for the poor, Mr. H. H. Stockdale Bow, solicitor, Horley, writes:-M Bingley has given wide publicity to what be considers the rapacity of the solicitor in undefended divcroe cases.

siderable part of the solicitor's, bill. In an undefe ided case in which I am acting I have recent- ly paid counsel's fees amcanting to £13 91, 63,, and the esse hae not reached the bearing stage you? If Mr. Bingley's profession were remunerated on the same basis a the solicitor branch, the cost of andefended divorce cases, and, indeed, of all litigation;would be reduced very considerably.
