CODRINGTON V. CODRINOTON.

11Ir Inderwick said in this case, which stood adjourned
for the 9th of November, he had an important application
to make for the postponement of the case. His learned
friend, the Queen's Advocate, Sir H. Phillimore, had met
with a severe accident, and his medical attendant considered
that ho would be wholly unfit to attend the court that day.
It was, however, believed he would be able to attend in
about ten days, and he therefore asked that the ca s e might
stand fixed for the 16th.

Dr. Spinks said he appeared with Mr Bovill, Q.C., and
Mr Sergeant Ballantiae for the petitioner. Of course,
under the circumstances, there would be no objection to
postpone the case. But it was objected that any day should
be appointed for the present.

The learned Judge said if both parties agreed to a post-
ponement, he could not object under the circumstances,
but it would be better to postpone it generally, and to agree
on some future day when it should be taken so as not to
!mear.. wuu Ina geue..l buniueoB CI Ille court. Tlio purtlOal
must undertake to give the jury notice not to attend on the
9th, and that they were not to attend until summoned again,
Dr Srimis said of course that would be done.
The case was accordingly postponed.

- - -
It will be recollected that this case was postponed at the
end of the last sittings, owing to the extraodinary evidence
and disclosure made for the first time by the wife of a clergy-
man,who gave evidence of a conversation she had with Mrs.
Codrington, who in it had admitted having committed adul-
tery with Lieutenant Mildmay at Malta. A commission
was ordered to be issued to examine witnesses at Malta to
rebut that evidence, but no such commission was issued.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr Commissioner Goulburn.)
IN RE 'WAX GR.

To day was appointed for the last examination and dis-
charge of this bankrupt, the facts of whose case must be
familiar to the public. Since the last meeting volumnous
accounts, extending over 150 folio pages, have been filed,
and the front sheet of the balance sheet, by, M. 0. Brown,
shows a total indebtedness of £332,127. The unseoured
creditors amount to £48,257. To ditto holding security,
£260,342. The profits on the Branksea Patent Company
are put down at £5,967. Losses £24,095. The property in
the hands of creditors is valued at £185,281. The bank-
rupt states a surplus in October, 1852, when the balance
sheet commences. The domestio and personal expenses
between October, 1852, and Aprili 1857, amount to £44,555
and the legal and professional expenses, commissions, inte-
rest, discount, amount to £51,067, and the deficiency is
accounted fur by trade expenses, &c.
The case was appointed for 12 o'clock, but not called on
until one.

Mr Linklater, for the assignees, said that the accounts
had only been filed about a month, and a further adjourn-
ment was necessary. He therefore asked for six weeks,
and he hoped that in the interim some arrangement might
be come to with the London and Eastern Banking Cor-
poration.
A desultory conversation took place, Mr C. E. Lewis for
the Banking Corporation, to prove his debt, but
His Honour ultimately peremptorily directed the ad-
journment. _ _

_
Mr Sargood, for the bankrupt, asked far a further allow-
ance, as the bankrupt had only been receiving at the rate
of £1 per week for a limited time.
His Honour refused to make any order.
