The number of practising Barristers in the Colony,

known to the public, and whom it is at the present time desired

(both by Solicitors and by their clients) to brief, is extremely

limited. It would be necessary for one firm or another of

Solicitore to take into partnership one of such Barristers. 120mm

being limited, many practising Solicitors would be unable to

soquire the benefit of the assistance of a well known Barrister.

in The result of this must be that these Solicitors would évitably

lose much of the practice built up by them.

13.

In every instanos, for some years to come, when it

wls desired to bring to trial any important case, it would be

necessary, if clients' instructions were to be carried out, for

one of these few well-known Barristene to be retained, thie would

meen either that the ouse would be ab-initio taken up by the firm

of solicitors with whom such Barrister was connected, or that, if

he were engaged in another case, a postponement of the ones would

be applied for.

14.

Recently, several men, who have bʊen oalled to the

Bar in Englund, have been called here, there men are abeclutely

without the experience which it is necessary for a Solicitor to

posseca in order to do his work properly, and they rays coquired **

their qualifications at infinitely less expense than, and without

the application of, a Soliciter. Amalgamation would entitle these

men to practise as Solicitors, with possibly lamentable mreults

to their clients, and injury to the rest of the profession.

15.

Sollaltors are liable for negligence, Barristers are

not, und yet it is proposed to sooord the latter all the privileges

of a Solicitor, in addition to those attached to their own branch

of the profession, while no subh privileges &ɛ are exolusively

enjoyed by Barristers, other than those of Pleading in the Higher

Courts, are proposed to be accorded to Solicitors, who will still

be regarded by the Chinese in the Colony 28 "small lawyers".

16.

My Committee are of opinion that the troumetanose

of this Colony are vastly different from those of China and the

Straits Settlements. In the H.B.M. Supreme Court in China
