L INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
WELLESLEY V. BEA LTFORT.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, soon after the Lord Chan-
cellor took his seat, said he had been informed that a pi!.
tition had been presented in this cause by the Misses Long
of such a nature that he felt it to be his duty to make
this proposition respecting it to the Court, namely, that
his Lordship would either take no notice of it, and not
allow it to be filed, or that he would postpone giving. lodg-
went upon it till lie (the Solicitor-General) had had time
to look into it, and afterwards make such observations
upon it to the Court as might seem to him necessary for
!I'm to make.—Assented to by the Court.
BUSINESS 01' THE COURT.
The LORD CHANCELLOR thought it hut proper that he
should now state to the Bar (for the accotnmoda!ion of
!!entlemen at it) what he intended further to do respecting
!he remaining business before him, and which would be
to this effect. The bankrupt petitions in his paper were
reduced to 13, some of which were very short and some
would take time—he intended to hear them through before
going into those set down before his Honour the Vice-
Chancellor, and not yet brought into his (his Lordship's)
piper. flaying got through the bankruptcies he
would immediately afterwards devote as many days
io the hearing of motions as they may be found
require.tot His opinion was, that the bankrupt
matters will be got disposed of by to-morrow night,
and that then Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, may be
devoted to the hearing of motioni. Ile had got the Com-
mittee of Privileges in the House of Lords postponed from
Wednesday to Thursday, for the purpose of enabling him
to make this arrangement. Afterwards he intended to sit
in the House of Lords upon appeal.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL hoped that it Was not in-
tended to take many of the appeals in the Lords at pre-
sent, because from what had fallen from his Lordship
some time since, he believed the profession were under ',he
impression thlt but very few appeals would be taken in
the House of Lords before the vacation. The appeals
there required a great deal of time to get up.
His LORDSHIP said he only intended to take a few of
the pressing appeals before the breaking up fur the recess.
