That the Bankrupt Laws in the Country are also par.
tially and imperfectly administered ; for your Memorialists
have been informed, that in a Country Commission, under
which four partners were jointly interested, one partner
was the Petitioning Creditor • a second was an acting
Commissioner; a third was the iolicitor to the Commission;
and the fourth was the sole Assignee.
Your Memorialists respectfully request y our Lordship's
serious attention to their case, and submit that at least a
part of such evils may be remedied by the jurisdiction of
the Court of Bankruptcy being considerably extended.
That an extension of the said Court to different Counties
within one hundred miles from London, would materially
benefit your Memorialists, and the public in general, and
promote a more pure and speedy administration of justice.
Your Memorialists, therefore, taking into consideration
the increased facility of travelling, and the general benefit
that would be conferred upon all classes in the Metropolis,
and particularly the commercial world, respectfully solicit
your Lordship to order that all fiats be directed to the
Court of Bankruptcy, where the bankrupt shall reside
within one hundred miles of London; and that further and
more extensive powers be granted to the Learned Com-
missioners, which will enable them the better to facilitate
the business of the Court, and to promote the interests of
those who are compelled to resort to it ; and that if, to
effect these objects it shall be necessary to apply to the
Legislature, such course may be adopted during the pre-
sent session of Parliament.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
EXTENSION OF 1-71-rEaT—)RACTICE TO THE
COUNTRY, AND ENLARGEMENT OF THE
POWERS OF THE COMMISSIONERS.
On Thursday last, the 25th July, a deputation, consist.
ing of Mr. Crawford, M. P. ; Mr. Hawes, M. P. ; Mr.
Ellis, M. P. ; Messrs. C. Candy, Everingtan, Leach,
Leaf, Hecles, Perez, &c., &c., and accompanied by Mr.
Parker and Mr. J H. Pollock, Solicitors, and Mr.
Wryghte, Secretary to the Committee, waited upon the
Lord Chancellor, by appointment, to present a Memorial
on the subject of the Court of Bankruptcy, of which the
following is a copy :
To the Right Hon. the Lord High Chancellor of Great
Britain.
The Memorial of the undersigned Merchants,
Bankers, and Traders of the City of London,
Sheweth,
That your Memorialists have, for several years past,
witnessed with satisfaction the manner in which proceed-
ings under fiats have been carried on in the Court of
Bankruptcy, and your Memorialists are of opinion that it
only requires that the Learned Commissioners of that
Court should have more extensive powers, to make such
Court work still better, for the benefit of the public, and
the decrease of litigation.
That, since the Establishment of the said Court of
Bankruptcy, your Memorialists' property under Fiats have
been better protected, the law expenses greatly decreased,
the Dividends much increased, and the payments of them
more quickly made, and to a much larger amouat than
formerly.
Your Memorialists respectfully submit to your Lordship
that the very reverse is the case in Country Fiats, where the
Solicitors' Bills are under no proper control, and heavy
travelling and unnecessary expenses incurred and allowed,
the payments of all the Dividends prolonged to a very im-
proper time, and invariably reduced to a most considerable
extent.
