He possessed 40 100ths of the shares and had a salary of 30,000 f. as raactow in chief. The terms are, for the 40 shares 800,000 f., and for the editorship 160,000 f., making together the very handsome sum of 960,000 f., which K. de Olrardin will put in his pocket.

NAPLES. A letter from Vienna, in the New Wiwsbowg Go ugh', says :—" Sir Hamilton Seymour recently gave to our lathiest the positive maraca that England would not undertake anything with regard to the Neapolitan affair, of a nature to serve the projects of the revolutionary party in Italy, or to disturb the tranquillity of the Peninsula." A letter from Vienna, in the Wow Gaultio, says : "A pamphlet, published is French, is handed about in diplomatic circles here, which contains an apology for the conduct of Naples, and indicates some reforms which that government might effect. Among them are mentioned the application of the military eon• ecliptics to Sicily, the formation of military colonies fur veterans and invalid soldiers, the calling in of the copper coinage, the substitution of /shares d'af• fairs for ambassadors, changes in the customs tariff, the release of Poor* dn.

This need of war, destined to guard the fishery, arrived here on the day after a storm that had blown with violence on our *out and battered the dike of Ostend with snob fora as to form a wide and gaping ; breach, making u apprehensive lest the NS should burst into the town and completely lay it under water. During the night between the 12th and the 13th the garrison of the town worked hard to fill up, by means of bags filled with sand and turf, the cavity formed by the waves, and prevent the complete rupture of the dam. Thanks to these labours the danger was averted, but the town was all but experiencing the fate of those ancient villages the site of which it occupies, and which were whelmed beneath the inundations of the sea. A letter from Milan of the 171 h says The itinerary of the Emperor of Austria has been fixed as follows—His Majesty is to arrive at Venice on the 26th instant, and remain there until the 27th Deo.

The third proceeding le that Mr. Lee, the official assignee in bankruptcy, and Mr. lobaston, the messenger, appear na dir an order made in the matter of the Winding-up Act to show ewe why they should not be committed for entempt of this Court, in disturbing the peonleith of Mr. Hardiest the interim manager. The ' pendia question to be decided is whetter the property of ' the Royal British Bank is to be dienthated among the are dines by the official assignee under the bankruptcy, or by the official manager under the Winding-up Act. The material facts and den are the following:—On ' the 3rd of September, 1866, the Royal British Bank, which no a joint stook company, formed ander the Act 7 and 8 Viet., for regulating joint stock companies, 'topped payment. On the 6th September, a petition (or ' winding up the company, wider the Winding-up Act of 1848, wan presented by Sherman, a contributory, and was Answered by the Lord Chancellor. Oa the Bth of September, Elliot, a auditor, filed an affidavit of debt fa the Court of Common Pleas ; and on the sun day sued oat sad ..reed ea the secretary of the company a writ of runeoni seceding to the requisition of the 7 wet of the 7 and 8 Viet ' ''. 14. On the 20th Sep towbar, the eompany wee dissolved by a resolution 01 a meeting duly convened according to the provisions of the deed of settlement of the company. Oa the 24th September as order Owlets to wind up the nth pony wee made en the above-mentioned petition of Sherman, and upon three other petitions which had been presented by other contributories. On the 27th of September, Mr. Harding we appointed interim manager under the Winding-up Act. On the 2nd of October the proceedings under the Wiadingith Act were registered as a lie undue, according to the 126th eectioa of the Winding-up Act. Oa the 9th of October, who a ealondar month had expired from obs ionise of Elliot'. welt of summons, another creditor, named Bark*, pceeeated • petition for adjudication to the Court of Bankruptcy, and on the same day the com pany wee adjudged bankrupt nadir 7 sad 8 Vie., cap. 14. and Mr. Lae was appointed official soignee. Oa the 13th of October Mr. Harding was appointed official manager. Upon thew facts the first question to be determined fa this— who has the legal title to the property of the tampon ? II it vested la the official assignee, or in the official manger ? If in the latter, so ground has bees suggested why that title should sot prevail. If in the official assignee, the neat question is, are there any grounds upon which this court ought to interfere with the assertion or exercise of his legal title. The minion of thou questions depends principally upon the construction and companion of two sets of par liament-7 and 8 Viet., e.lll, and 11 and 12 Viet., rt. 46. Where an important legal question arises whleh is nobody new, and turn upon the GuestrucUon of an met et mu of parliament, the obviate course for a judge sitting in this wart would be,to let the matter be tried by an esti= at law, and I should have taken that warm, but on my sugeetiog it to the coastal on both sides, the one strongly oh footed to that course, and the other declined to septets any eon rrrrr nce with the suggestion, and as I ea apprehensive that the taking that course would tend materially t o delay the reoeipt of a dividend by the endings (for whow interest I am chiefly ulnas) I have thought it my duty to decide the legal question myself. The Ant wenn, then, for Amelioration is, in whom is vaned the legal title to the estate and (Seta of the company. In ruing the 'statute of 7 and 8 Vic., c. 111, the legislator* had two objects—the one to facilitate the recovery of debts due by joint stock companies, the other to detect and punish abusse attending the formation and masagenseat of such companies. With respect to the former the preamble recite that it is expedient to intend the remedies of creditors against the property of joint stock esepaair when unable to meet their pecuniary engage male, sad to facilitate the wiudlog-up of their un seen For this punts the statute makes a joint stalk sosapony liable to become* beokrept. Corwin acs or calwiene by the company specified in the statute are de eland by the sots of tosekruptey, or upon any of these acts of bankruptcy bring esinneittod, say credits, to an amount eaffieleat to support a fist in bankruptcy, may sue oat a fist he benkneptey, and the Court of Bankruptcy is to pro ceed ea each flat in like manner as is the wee of an thdividaal trader against whom the fist was [mod. But the bankruptcy of the company is not to involve the hiatuses', of the individusl members of the company. The 11th metiou enacts that the law and practice in bank ruplGy them force shall extend for ae the asne7 may be 'The Swiss Feder el Oman," says the Prom, II has Mooed to a sloes tuatara' the sores of own. patios seat late the Ceiba of Neufchatel.' Prime Alfred of Nagler!, after basis, visited Morsel plates ea the Oration; has arrived at Guava, where his royal highaess is to pass do 'whits. .. t British Bank (for by the 48th sec. of the 7 and it Viet., e. 119 , basking companies of more than six pumas are brught within the operation of the intent* under mei aeration) 12222 entitled to have mourn to this remedy. If the company committed one of the acts o f bankruptcy specified is the bankruptcy (and that they did DO is not disputed), any creditor whole debt was of sufficient amount to sustain a fiat (or rather a petition lot adjudication, which has sow been sub•tituted for the pro goading, by fiat), had a right to have the company adjudged bankrupt; and upon such adjudication every creditor had a right to come in sad prove his debt end to have all those benefits and advantages which, by the general bankrupt laws, attach, or are consequential upon, an adjudication Is bankruptcy. In the present cue the act of bankruptcy is that which is mentioned in the 7th section of the statute now under consideration, which enacts that if any creditor to inch as amount as is by law required to support • fiat, shall file an a ffi davit of such debt In one of tho superior courts at Wcatminster, and shall sue out of the sumo court a writ of summons against*" com pany, and serve • copy of such summons on an officer of the company, then if the company shall not within one calendar month from such service, pay, secure, or compound for the debt, or satisfy one of the judges of that court that it is the intention of the company to defend the action on the merits, and within one calendar month of such service enter an sp. to the action ‘ the company shall be deemed to Cre a t e :emitted an set of bankruptcy from the time of the service of the summoss. Elliot, a creditor, on the Bth Sept., 1866, fi led an affidavit of d e bt and sued and an the same day served • writ of summon,, in the manner required by the 7th section, and the company did not, on or before the Bth October, the day on which the calendar month expired, pay, secure, or compound for the debt, nor enter an appearance to the action. It is not disputed that the company committed an act of bankruptcy on the Bth of September, the date of the service of the summons, and thereupon it was competent to Elliot, or to any other creditor of the company, whom debt was of *efficient amount to support a fiat, to file a petition for ad. judication, sad procure the company to be adjudged bank rupt ; sad it is not disputed that by the general bankrupt lawe the adjudication would make the company bankrupt from the date of the met of bankruptcy—namely, the Bth of September ; and, accordingly, on the 9th of October, Burke, a creditor to a sufficient amount, filed a petition tor adjudioation, and oa the same day the company was majedged bankrupt In the act of bankruptcy. And on the same day Mr. Lee was appointed official assignee of the estate and effect, of the company. Moreover ft Is admitted that if the Winding-up Act of 1848 had never been pained, or if there bad been no proceedings under it, the company was bankrupt from the 8:h September, the day of filing the affidavit of debt and serving the writ of summons; and all the estate and effects of the company, as from the same date vested in the official assignee on his appointment, subject to the exceptions provided by the 133rd section of the Bankrupt Consolidation Act (12 and 13 Vict., c. 106) in favour of the persons having bona fide dealings with the company without notice of a prior act of bankruptcy. Vihtt,thein,is the effect of the Winding-4m Act of 1848 (11 and 12 Viet:A.4s)&sd of the proceedings whioh have been held therennderd hat statue by its title peanuts to be an act to amend the 7 & 8 e. 11, and emu other acts mentioned in the pre amble, and also to facilitate the dissolution and windingiup of joint stock companies and other partnerships. After declaring to whet creditors its provisions are to apply, and there fa no doubt that the Royal British Bank is within its operation, it proceeds in the 6th section to enable contributor, of a company (but sot to *sable mediton) to apply to this court for • winding-up order In any of the cases mentioned in that section. The first of thine cues is, if the company shall have committed, done, er suffered any act which, by any of the recited acts (including 7 & 8 Viet. o. 111) Is to be deemed an act of bankruptcy, and the 6th of the easel there specified is preeduly the same es that which by the 7th section of the 7th & fhb Vict., 0.111, before referred to, is to be deemed an act of bankruptcy, except that the time allowed after the samice of the writ of summons, for the company to pay, secure, or compound for the debt, or satisfy a judge of the intention to defend the union on the merits, and enter an appearance, is only three weeks instead Of a calasdar month. I mention thus two cases especially for the Impose of ()booming, with reference to the former, that the commission by the company of an act of bankruptcy will serve at once to ground a fiat in bank ruptcy under 7 and 8 Viet., e. 111, and also to ground a windbag-up order under 11 and 14 Viet., c. 45 ; end with respect to the latter case, I would observe, that if a creditor files the affidavit of debt, and issues and serves the writ of summou as there *pacified, this will serve to ground • winding-up order, if the company does not pay the debt, &c., at the end of three weeks, and also to ground a fiat in bankruptcy if the com pany does not pay the debt, &e. at the end of • calendar month. But the act contains no pro- vision that a winding.up order is to prevent or impede the issuing or prosecution of a flat. The 6th section enacts that in ease the fist shall have been issued against the company fudge the recited acts, ia cludinv, of curie, the 7th and Bth Viet., e. 111, or say of them, n• petition for a winding-up order under this act, @hal be presented by any other person than the oreditcr's amignees under the fist; end power 32 given to such minute by the order and direction of the Court of Bankruptcy, hut, not otherwise to petition the Court of Chancery for a winding-up order. Now it ban not bee. contended that this Winding up Act, repealed the 7 sod 8 Viet., 0.111, or that it operated generally to prevent creditors from proceeding against the company, by issuing a fiat in bankruptcy, or by filing a petition for adjudication. Indeed, although the validity of the adjudication is not actually admit ed by the coun sel for the official manager, they have not attempted to segue that it is iuvalid, but assuming the validity of the adjudicatios, their argument is that at the time of the ousel adjedication there existed an order absolute for winding-up, and an interim manager had been appointed; the adjudication, though valid, must remain wholly inoperative, as administration can be had thereunder, and the assets of the company ought to be distributed among the creditor, by the official manager. In support of thie view they contend—let, that the order obsolete to wind-cep the company having been made before the adjudication in bankruptcy, it prevents the bankruptcy from having rela tion back to the batting of Os writ of summons, and that therefore the company can only be considered as having be come bankrupt at the date of the adjudication, which was subsequent to the windiore no order, and, consequently, that the title of the assignee in bankruptcy cannot be car ried back to an earlier period then the date of the adja. dicatioa. This argument 111111100221 that the 7th section of the 7 & 8 That. a 111, so far as it enacts that the company shall be deemed to have committed an act of bankruptcy from the time of the service of the sum moos le, in effect, repealed by the Winding up Act—at least in the particular case where a winding. up order shall have been made before the arijudicition—an arsumption for which Ido not see any ground. But, fur ther, even if that assumption could be properly made, it do., not appear to me that it would avail to prevent the estate and effects from vsetiog in the official assignee. In as tontine that the company only became bankrupt at the date of the adjudication, viz. the 9th October, on which same din the official assignee was appoiated, it cannot, I apprehind, be disputed that at lust whatever was on that day the property of the bankrupt company vested in the official assignee. What thea had at that time been done to divest the estate and 4: &di of the com. patty, and vast them in any other person or persona The order: tol wind-up the company could sot of itself pro. duce any each effect, either by reason of anything in the terms of the order itself, or by mien of any elute in the winding up act; end the only other proceedioge which bad been taken under the Winding-up Act were the registering of the petition as a lis psndeos under the 125th 'tofu, and the appointment of en interim manager. Now the registration of the petition, as a lis undoes, had no other effect than thie, that by the 2 and 3 Viet., c. 11, see. 7, a rookie*r or mortgagee of the property would be as much affected by the petition then registered as he would be if he had attest notice of It. But there is nothing in this to effect a treader of any property from the company to any other person or persons, nor can the apptintment of en in terim manager Dave any such effect. Fir au sienna ma mmon., is nothing more than a receiva, who, I though authorised to collect the ,elite, has no 'estate vested in him. Lord Hardwick* observed la Shipp v.
