A Mr. W. Johnson put in a claim for Exchequer-bills to
the amount of several thousand pounds; he having paid that'
money into the house of Messrs. Marsh and Co., fbr the pur-
chase of Exchequer-bills which were riot now forthcoming.
The eoatatisstoNE us said it would be necessary, in the
first instance, to ascertain that the bills were-not in the hands of
the house ; if they were so, they would be Mr. Johnson's pro-
perty, and most altogether be delivered up to him.
A clerk i f Messrs. Marsh and Co. then said that he believed
the Exchequer-bills were not to be found. 'They had, how-
ever, been purchased—there was evidence tti that effect.
Mr. MONTAGU said that, in that case the party who had,
abstracted them would be liable for the embezilement ; but the
laser was entitled to prove as for a debt, rfetwithstanding.
The Co at misstOMEns 'were of opinion, after some discus-
sion, that Mr. Johnson would do well to defer his claim for the
present ; as by proving for the Excheqtter-bills as a debt, he
would wave Ins right to the whole possession of them if they
should be discovered. Mr. Johnson then proved for a balance
of 4401. only, leaving the question as 'to the larger amount
open for the present.
Three or four other claims were made with respect to ExClll3.
quer-bills ; and there seemed to be no instance in which pro-
perty of that kind was fortlicomineffiey were all arranged
tor the time being, in the same way as that of Mr. Johnson.
The clerk who appeared with the hooks of the firm said, that
all the business of Exchequer-bills had been left in the charge.
of Mr. I'auntleroy. Mr.iFatinderoy was'the only person who
could give any certain information as to what had or had not
been done as to such securities:
Several creditors expressed a wish that access might be had
to the books of the bankrupts ; but the Commissioners inti-
mated that no order could be made to that effect. Mr. Montagu
said that the petitioning creditor was ready to answer all inqui-
' ries, as far as he had information. As to. the property, how-
ever, in the shape of securities,' there Nay great difficulty in
ascertaining any thing accurately.'
A clerk (we believe) connected with the house, said that there
was very groat difficulty in tracing thrit class of 'priaperty.—
Many securities probably had been lodged, of *bleb there was
no record at all.
A short sketch, in figures, of the probable state of the affairs
of the house, was then exhibited,
as made. tip by the petition-
lug creditor. At firm it was handed 'round the table ; but a
general outcry arose to have it real-
The C"3"4310X Ens objected to having such a document
as any part of the proceedings ofthe day. It Was not iifficial,
and might lead to great iniaasprehension. Eventually, the call
of the rooorprevailed, and
the paper was read; the ecirinnis-
stoma stating distinctly that they gave it no counten nce as
an account to herelied on. The reading,4 •
one way or theother,
was a matter -of little consequence; fur while the argitnient
went on, it was copied in 0 places.

In -t his .bnlan ce-sheet, the claims (for bills and money) against
, the house, at the time of its stopping payment, Were put at
something short 0t,387,000/. This was stated, however, lobe
exclincive of all claiMs on the score of

who produced the paper, " exclusive of fraudulent trans-
actions whatever.' „
•Ou ahe-acore of Vxchequer-bille;there were 'already cjaims
to the timount Of 93,0001. (whether this sum included the clai los
preferred at the meeting'chd not appear). What farther claims,

ties, or-with respect to Stock ordered to be pt lichaised,and.not*
,purchased, could not as yet he ascertained. Mr. Fauntleray,
:however, (it was said,) upqn these points coinpletely exculpated
his, partners.
Mr. Law said that he could not allow a statement to that
effect, tube made. It was the duty of the Court to see that Mr.
Fauntleroy,. in iris absence, was not prejudiced.
Mr. 31ouTAOU said that he had a letter'in his possession
from Mr.• Fauntleroy distinctly to that.effect.
The balance.sheet was then proceeded 'ln ;', and it. as heard
with great satisfaction, that to -meet the existing Claims of
460,0001.. Messrs.. Marsh and Co.•had assets, in cash and, scale'.
ties, to the-amount of more thanl3o,oo/. This state of thiogs
was expressly declared to be made out by; raking the assets-, of'
the firm at their highest, and the debits against it at their lowest
possible value ; but, notwithstanding the apprehension of sub-
sequent -claims, the general sense of the meeting certainly wits,
that matters were.better than.had been expected.
The " sketch," Dr rough balance-sheet, exhibited was, in
terms and figures, nearly as follows :

The slightest attention to the circumstances in which the
house stands, relatively to this Government and to the Nizant's
appears to me; suffice to appreciate the
validity of their plea. •
The house of Itlessrs. William Palmer and Co. was esta-
blished within the dominions of the Nizarn, under the special
sanction of the British Government. They admit, throughout
the correspondence, that they cculd not conduct their mercan-
tile concerns in that country a day, or an liOnr, without the tiro.:
tection of the British representative; and they state, that but
for their reliance on that support, they could not have ventured
to engage in the arrangements which forth thepresent subject of
our deliberations.

But further, the abuses experienced in pecuniary transac-
tions, between Native States and British subjects, have created
so great a jealousy of all such concerns that by an 'act of the
Legislature the engaging in them, without the special license
of the Indian .tioverntments, has been constituted a criminal
offence.

It is, therefore, by a special dispensation from the penalties
of that statute, granted by this Government, that the house of
Messrs. Wm. Palmer and Co. have been enabled to enter into
say pecuniary transactions with the Nizam's Government; and
the inatrutuent by which the dispensation was granted, corn-
prebends a clear and distinct condition, that the house should,
at all times when required so to do by the Resident a Hyder-
abad, for the time being, communicate to the Resident the.
nature and objects of their transactions with the Government
on the subject of the Nizam.'
Sir Wm. Runibold has, in his letter, dwelt with some emphe.

Government for Informatien 1 But are the house prepared se-
riously to Urge, that beeause the British Representative at the
Court of Hyderabad was indicated to the Houle, as the person
who wits to exercise immediate controul over their conduct, and
to whom they were bound to colimitniicate MI their transactions
with the Native State, this Government therefore meant to ab.
dicate their right, and their duty of satisfying themselves that
the controid was duly exercised, qr of requiring from the Resi-
dent, or, the House, any Information which might ,be deemed
tieceSsarsy to that end.
When, the house of Messrs. William l'eliner and Co. were
applying p this Government for the dispensation, they appear.
ed fully.lenaible.of the obligations which ,it They
were conscious that it was their duty to be prepared for the most
thorough exposure of their concerns with the Nizam'a Govern-
ment, nqttmerely to the Resideot, hut, whenever required, to
this tioyernment, whose representative the Resident is, and from
which all his Powers and autliority,in.this as in every other re-
ePeet,are- derived.

The contrast, of the language held in, the housetio the present
occasion is remarkable. Having procured assignments.on the
INizant's revenues, to the annual extent of thirty lac* cif rupees,
and, heving been called upon by this, Government to furnish
:statements,, requisite to enable us to form a judgment upon the
propriety of the arrangements connected with that assign-
ment, the house have thought fit to reply, that their, reputa-
