Wright. the evening crediter, it:tw thv cosi gn no alba bankru. How.l- said the b.inkeu;,tce Cl , t .3* qtall a laurels proceeding. It wu surprisng that slr. Wrigt.t should have treated the bankrupt withwat some pre axons inquiry. He had compounded with his creditors, sad had Wes iseelvtat before, and was, at the time of taking the preeitts. 4001. worn. than nothing. Ile Lid not mom a farthing tit his creditors, nail only cams to the court for the sae of getting a certificate of conformity, as it wu called, though all he had conformed to was the CII1:001 of trying to cheat other. The certificate must be suspended tor IS months. wh, n Resisted to be of the 3rd eau protection to be withheld for three mmths, the bankrupt laving been alrewly three weeks in prison. The court thought it necessary to put a cheek to this inenasieg clam of cases. IN El I.IIIIII%—CAST Or A WZST-lIND This was the adjourned last exaMnation meeting in the coo of Samuel Lune Pratt, upholsterer, of New Bond street. The bankruptcy occurred sixteen moats ago, and tLe case had been :.djourried from t me to time, as the bankrupt WAS engaged in carrying on the business under - the dare ctisn of the assignees. The accounts, which are very voluminous, have been prepared by Messrs. Hutting and Pullet°, sal the largeness of the items disclose, the en trot of the bankrupt's dei.lings. A concise and lucid sum mary of the caw is supplied by the report of Mr. Pennell, the official soignee, which is in the following terms : "The adjudication in this cue is dated September 8, 1852, the bankrupt hating previously petitioned the court under the arrangement clause*. The balance sheet cons mcnees on the 27th of February, 182, comprising only • period of little more than sin months, Wort founded on the statement {originally ;intended to be intimated to the court under the-petition for orneriness. The bankrupt, from that period to tte present time, has teen coLductiug the business with the consent of his cre- ditors, and under the sanction of the court, sod with very considerable memo, inasmuch se a large amount of liabili ties ham been cleared off, while the mots remain 'cry much at their original figure. Tha belanws-abett shows the fol lowing results:-I'o creditors unsecured, 8,4541. Gs. lid. ; ditto holding security, 10,7551. Cs. Sel.; rent and taxes owing. 6.01. 'b. lid.: amount due on contract with Mr. Peel, 5,0001. ; liabilities, spinet which an assignment of certain property has been made, 3,7621. ; $ on bile of exchange, 1.2231. 10s. 101.; total debts and liabilities, 29.8901. 13a. Id.; surplus in Mr. Pratt's favour on 27th February, 1832, 1,2871.195.; profit on the trading account, 1,9231. 91. 9d.; tate' to account for, 33,1021. Is. 10d. This account is tons disposed of:—By property, consisting of stock and furniture, 8,5001.; debts due to the estate, 2,0141. la. ; sash given up, 301.; partly manufactured stock, 1,2501.; property held by creditors, 14,6001. 9s. 2d• ; total mote, 26,3911. 10,.21. Liabilities, as per contra, 4,9751. 16s. 10d.; trade charges, interest, law expenses, end per sonal ezpenditare, 1,7311. 14s. 10d. ; total, 33,1g2:. Is. 10d. The total debts and liabilities now outstanding amount to 18.8991. 195.; the meets (consisting of stock, bock debts, and house property, 20961. 16e. less amount of debts contracted since the bankruptcy, 2,0011. Os. 5d.) amount to 22,2951. IGs. 3.1. From this it will be observed that the debts and liabilitiee are reduced by the sum of 11,0901. Id.; while the redaction in the assets only amounts to 4,098/. 13s. 11d. ; thus showing that the es signer were justified is their opinion that the estate would be considerably benefited if the baukrept were allowed to conduct the business under their superintendence. The ace:tants now rendered by the bankrupt are to • great ex tent corroborated. His books are very defective, and re quired a c losiderable degree of labour to put them into as intelligible form; but the subsequent working of his estate goes very far to corroborate the substantial accuracy of hie estimates; and, taking all the circumstances of this ease into consideration, 1 think the balancc-sheet filed is the best the bankrupt is in a position to render to the court." Mr. Haynes, for the assignees, offered no opposition to the bankrupt's missing. Mr. Liaklat r, for the bankrupt, said it hadlboes ',- ranged on all hands that he should pass, with the wadies of the court. The Commissioner-1 understood that the bankrupt ex pected to be able to supersede ? Mr. Linklater said it had been found he could not do so without remaining su to certain liabilities, which be could ant arrange. whirefore wished to here the certificate of the cour hs bad no deubt would be granted. The Commissiotter.—He appean to have carried on the business sine* the bankruptcy very advantageously for the creditors. That is the best meet that the assignees have taken a very wise sad judidess tonne. They have saved the estate servants of 7,0001. Mr. Pennell.—Mr. Howard, the trade assignee, has been veu consume is his attendance on the premises. The Oemmiesiener.—Therefore we have nothing te debut from I eannothelp saying that the trade ea men he pales they have taken in eany ism an the baalans, ea from their having suggested a wane o hemegadal to the meditate at large, are certainly en titled Is the thanks of those creditors, and have well W alled their duty. Mr. Hayme—The efleial assignee is entitled to a very large share of that; for without him, we should have been able to de nothing The Commissioner—l am so ateastomed to hear that in cases in which Mr. Pennell is engaged, that I can readily I concur in what you state. Mr. Pain, solicitor, tendered a proof far upwards of 1,0001, en behalf of himself and late partner; but it Wine objected to by Mr. Haynes, his Honour directed it to stand over far inquiry.

The accounts, prepared by Mr.Tusquand, extended over three years prior to the failure in Angus t last, and preseated the following items in the Wear-sheet :—To creditors, 3631.; ditto, en underwriting amounts, 4281.; ditto secured, 1,9331. ; to Johnsen, Peel, sad Co., amount drawn out of the he., 5.7361. ; balance of premiums and return of underwriting accounts, 3,0071.

His beduletey is doted the 30th of August last. His be bese.theet eemmeseee es the Nth of June, 1830, with a defielesey of 3,9001. He sow OWN to unsecured creditors, 7911.; but this amount wall be mush increased by subse quent loser ou policies ssierwritten by him. He also owes to creditors 0111111fitill. 1,9331., such securities, which are valued at being steritid with the credi tors is 1860. 1861, end , 1863. The most retest deposit is an assignment of hie household furniture, given in February last to his three IisIOTO, to secure a loan of 4901. made by two of them at the time, and a debt of 16.11. due to the other sister for cash tent by her in 1846. His assets consist of a good debt of 281. and of 2,6341, the balance ap pearing by the ledger ou the 14th June last to be due upon underwriting accounts. Application has been made for these debts, bet nearly the whole of them have been dis puted or sought to be set off by centre claims for losses, dc., and up to the present time only 1471. has been received. The bankrupt debits himself with 3,001/, as the .balance standing to the credit of his underwriting account; but when the losses on the policies underwritten by his. are ascertaind, the greater put of this amount will be written off. H u e other loses have been 1,1871. Hie personal ex poser have been 3,1841., or at the rate of about 1,0001. a year. The bankrupt kept ledger, journal, dec., with great " V i r aritY." .Cotterill said the assigner did not oppose the bank rapt haring • certificate but they wished the attention of the court to be drawn to the fact, that the balance-sheet commeseed with a deficiency of near 4,0001., and that the pommel expenditure was extremely :erre. The Cemenissioeer—What is the distinction he draws between lease urines and personal expenses ? He puts the former does at 1,3391., and the latter at 1,8461. The bankrupt, who appeared to be Tety isflrm, was assisted into the hot, and stated that the former item re sisted of expenses solely in his house; the latter comprised what he had expended beyond. The Cessmiesomer.—ln fact, t?..en, the latter are compara tive luxuries. Mr. Cotterill aid the trade assignees, who wen the brokers at Lloyd's, were desirous to draw the attention of the court to *species of credit which the bankrupt had ginned by fah* represeutatioss. He had been introdused to Lloyd's three years ago by two persons of respectability, who made curtails represestatioas as to hi. mews and other wise. On those representations he had obtalsed extessive credit, and bound large debta, and the amigeses thought that some expression of opinion from the wart would have the effect of preventing a recurrence of this premise. The Commiesioser—But if the resommembsg a person to Lloyd's do not make sit ru k t s inquiry se to his means before dam eis, the mares does not seem hebeeptite a proper can. One would sy that the tree meads, of the rule at Lloyd's, whisk says that no penes shell be admitted without the ettesabon of two perms. is that the pence so *Maim abosld have taken NOY pis to ascertain that the person is a person of substutiefflp, end not merely of respectability. lf, instead of takes some pains to ascertain that far, they sorely take the 1111116110111. tuition of the party himself, the blare will his spa them; but if, on the other hand, he, is elder to heffs 1111 them Si introduce hiss, made representatives ft them wbielt really false, that may be material, Otherwise, Ido sot see how this raft eas fustian Kr.

Yesterday the ordinary half-yearly general court of the proprietors of this company was held, at the Dock house 106, Fenchurch-street ; RoBERT Cairn:A, Esq., in the c hair. The report of the directors, which was read by the chairman, stated that the business at the docks in the year 1853 bad been to a greater extent than is any previous year ; and notwithstandiog the many disadvantageous cir• (instances arising from the high price of labour, and the interruption to the business occasioned by the carrying on et sew works, the board had reason to be satisfied, upon NM whole, with the pecuniary results. Considerable pro-1 germ had been made with the new works, and the railway eimmaniestion to the docks, which was almost completed, IPSO about to be opened, from which the directors anticipated a =Me development of the dock business. A dividend s ent. for the half-year, free from income-tax, as thaedging stock of the company, and at the same rate a the new preference 4 per cent. stock, together with the pay ola et interest upon all calls paid in advance, was mem mulnei ; and it was announced, that the four directors— Masan A. Siam, N. Gould, 13. J. Prescott, and R. Carter —Ube retired by rotation, and the retiring auditor, Mr. W. Malay, offered themselves for re-election, there being no other candidates.

Oats and oatmeal met with a very slow retail sale at late prices. Barley, beans, and peas were unaltered in value or demand. Indian corn was not much inquired for, and some parcels from the quay were offered on rather lower terms with little effect.
