THE LEEDS BANKRUPTCY INQUIRY.
. .

Mr. /101TVERIE gave notice that he prepoeed b move
the following amendment on the notion of tee hos. mem-
ber far Northamptonshire (Mr. Bunt) :—" That this house,
having considered the report of the committee oa the Leeds
Bankruptcy Court, and the evidence taken before it, are of
opinion that, while the evidence discloses the existence of
corrupt practices with regard to the appointment of Mr.
Welch to the offiee of registrar of the Leeds Bankruptcy
Court, they are satisfied that no imputation can be fairly
made against the Lord Chaneellee with regard to that aii-
pointmeot ; that such evidence, and also that takes before
the committee of the House of Lords, with respect to the
redgestion by Mr. Leonard Edmunds of certain offices, and
lanl before this house. show a laxity of practice and a want
of caution with regard to the public interest on the part of
the Lord Chancellor in sanctioning the giant of retiring
pensions to publio officers wkiletteliairgee are pending against
them, which, in the opinion of this house, are highly repro.
healable. and calculated to discredit the adiniaistration of a
'TeX office." (Laughter, and " Hear, hear.")
CASE OF MIL WINSLOW.
-• • .

Major & KNOX asked the Ationey-General whether it
was trim that a pennies had be.. granted by the Lord
Clisacellor to Mr. Winslow, late one of the Masters in
Limey ; and, if so, the ammet of such peesios, the
grounds upon which it was granted, mid whether it wee
refused by_a_forreer Chancellor.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL mid that a penaioo had
bees granted by the present Lord Chancellor to Mr. Wise.
low by an order made oa the 3rd of July, 1863. The grows&
on which it had been granted were that Mr. W below had
beta a public servant for seedy 30 years, 13 of which he
had gonad in the office of the Commisuoners of Lunacy ;
and after that office was abolished, 17 years as a Master is
Lunacy. Oo the 4th of February, UM, he preempted
a petition to en-Lord Chancellor Chelmsford, stating
that he was labouriog %leder sericite sad per-
manent infirmity, sad supporting the stationed by
the certificates of two physicians sad a surgeon. Mr.
Cognmetioner Winslow was obliged to renege his office
owing to pecuniary pressure before Lord Chelmsford bad
taken his petition into ooesideratice. and Lord Chelmsford
left office, as he (the Attorney-General) was informed,
without mekieg any order on the petition, sad therefore it
was not true that any former Lord Chouellor had refund
to sweat the pansies. Under them circumstances that,
had been a delay to the prosecution of the petition of rather
more than two years. Om the 31st of July, 1862, the pre-
seat Lord Chseaellor received a petition from Mr. Winslow,
supported by affidavits and straw letters and testimonials,
urging the claims of Mr. Window for long end valuable
services. Thom lettere were from Lord Brougham. Lord
Lytidlturst, under whom he had served, Lord Justice
&eight Bruce, Viee-Chwicellar Stuart, the Lord Chief
Bane, Mr. Montage Smith. Mr. Malin, Mr. Boren, end Kr.
Coannissiooer Holroyd ; cix•Lord Chancellor Chelmsford,
also wrote a letter stating that it would give him great
pleasure if the Lord Cherwell*, would take a favourable
view of the claims of Mr. Window, and that the echoes-
;tirnt of those claims would be gratify tog to the whole
e:ion. With these papers before him, the Lord Chan-
cellor took the opinion of the law officers of the crown, sod
of Mr. Bacon, a very eminent counsel, and was advised
iamb if the prayer of the petition presented to Lord Chan-
cellor Chelmsford remained nediaposed of. the Lord Chao-
cellar had power to grant a proem. After mature de-
libenstioe, the Lord Chancellor, flodieg that the petition
had never been disposed of, granted a peeing, not of the
maghnum mottot of 1,2001. a-year, but of 1,0001. a year.
