The LORD CIIANCELLo it came down to.day at ten o'clock,
anti sat in his room, which was Open to the public.
IN TOE :MATTER OF CLAUDIO ARCANGELO, A BANKRUPT.
His Loansitir said, since he was here he had received a
letter from a Gentleman in this matter.
Mr. MONTAacsaid,heappeared for the Petitioner, and held
in his band a copy of the letter his Lordship allitded to, and
front the nature of it, he felt he could not proceed in the peti.
tion as he intended. The letter was, informing his Ltirdship
that, Mr. Horne, who was retained also as Counsel, could not
possibly attend to-day, -and therefore it was hoPed his Lord-
ship would order the matter to stand over till the'Court met
tlgaiq.
Alt. FAIRBOIINE said, the letter was sent to his' Lordship,
merely with a view to have saved his Lordship trouble.
Ills I oa'Ulll p said no blame whatever attached to the Gen-.
denten whir had written the.letter. •
. 111 r. Alorersuu then claimed the privilegt of- making. an e.or
parte iwpheatiow The petition (which he would not open)
prayed that the columission which had been stied out against
RbiC to prove libi*ektit
bankrupt ought be ~,,,erseded,.
on toe ground of thu pe-
at law. The
Learned, Counsel's prat application was, that
_the. Court
tioninwereditor not being.
would order a new commissiOn to issue, without 'genial% usi
to which of the commission 4 should stand. The petitioning
creditor, on who alleged'Aleht of %AIM the commiSSiOli was
taken out, is a person of the name of Carew, of Wapping-
wall, who carries on the business or a musician; and it up-
leared he had nomeans whatever Of proving his debt at law,
ie stated • that the debt accrued by having lest-to the Bankrupt
the above sum, in bank notes, but could not remember the
numbers of them, nor the purties from whom he had received
them. It was supposed, that if the Bankrupt would admit the
truth of the elaiM, there might be something like a petitioning
.Creditor's debt, and therefore the Bankrupt was aled Wine
the Cortimksioners the outline. Of Whose examination on that
occasion was, mat! he received the note ; that he kept an ac-
count with two different bankers, but that he hail not, paid any
of this money intti the Itants of his bankers, in consequence, as
he alleged, of haring paid certain bills of exchange with it,
which about that time became due, and were payable at his
own house. Subsequently to this examination, the parties had
traced their bills, and by exertion of one kind and another, had
.discovered that not one farthing was paid in diseharge of the
bills, hut what came from the hands of his bankers, so that in.
stead of supportim, the petitioning Creditor's case, the Bank.
rapt completely annihilated it; and therefore the Com-
mi,isloners yesterday refused to admit ilia debt. There was a
vast deal ot, property to he got in, and therefore Mr. Montagu
hoped his Lordship would grant the prayer of the presept
ap-
plication.llia • •
Lonnsir IP immediately desired that a new Commission
should issue, without rirejuthee to the question whether the
present Commission 'should stand or not, ' intimating at tie,
same, time, that if this second Commission ought not to by
taken out, the party who did take it • out, would . hereafter
have to pay the costs of it.
