It will be remembered, that this is the matter In which a serious
chug* .was beough sgainst two gentlemen of the name of Frost
batter and ton), solicitors, in the north of England, and upon
which an application wan founded, to remove them from acting as
oelleitors any more. Also, in which Mrs. Ma y Richardson pea..
tonal to remote a Mr. Weddall from being an assignee under the
bankraptc). An order wan made in the matter upon the hearing,
subsequently objected to. upon the ground of its giving
too heavy twits as against Messrs. Frost. Upon that objection,
nod Eat a view to vary the minutes, the matter was now again
bmuettan ; and his Lordship's opusiun was, with respect to the
Ltosts. that they ought to think they got extremely well eft" by
payola th: oboist of the coats attesdiug the petition, and that
therelute dtat should be the order of the Court. As regarded

praying. that upon his own petition he might be removed from

The Lout theASICLI.LOa gam judgment in this matte,. The
petition was very long. It stated that the petitioning creditor was
the bankrupt's father; that the debt on which the commiwion was
taken out was not a valid debt; and, therefore, it prayed for an
order of supersetleas. His Lordship took great pains in going
through the eiretiontanom in the matter, and then said the order
he thought_ the Court ought to make was, to refer it to the Master
of the Vacation, to inquire whether there was any debt, at the date
and suing forth of thee commission, due to the petitioning creditor,
capable of supporting the commission.
His Loa °SHIP heard several other matters, and at the close of
the sitting, mentioned that, with respect to all cases remaining un-
idisposed of after Saturday, he would take all the papers In them with
lynt Into the country, with a determination so to pore over them, as
to be able to get rid of every cam before him, as soon as he returned,
and after that, he would neither cure what became of the papers not
of himself; but, if any person knew :he present state of hie health,
wts quite sure that they would apply for an injunction to
test•aia him from doing any thing more foe at least one eight days.
