IN RE SIMPSON AND IRVING.

Mr. LAWRENCE applied in this case, the bankrupts being
merchants in the City, for a copy of the bankrupts' examina-
tion, as it was conceived other persons were partners with
them, and that a good dividend might be obtained, all the
other persons being perfectly solvent. A dividend of 2s. in
The pound has been already paid on the estate.
The Learned COMMISSIONER considered the bankrupt was
en titled to a copy of his own examination.
Mr. LAWRENCE said that his application was not only on
tehalf of the bankrupt, but of a creditor for 1,0001.

IN RE ED. MORGAN.

This bankrupt, who was a coach-builder in Lisson-grove,
Paddington, came up for his last examination, and was op-
posed. His creditors, without as curity, amounted to
5761., with security to 2,769/. Hia good debts and
property amounted to about 601. From April,
1843, he had paid 401/. for interest and discount, and
2281. 16s. for law expenses. His capital at that date was
201. On the 7th February, 1846, he had received 1,2001.
from a building society, which he had paid away to holders
.of dishonoured bills, and the fiat was issued within a month
after, on the 7th of February. He had also mortgaged two
houses at Kilburn. He had kept no books.
Mr. THOMAS urged that on this report of the official assig-
nee the examination ought to be adjourned.
Mr. LAWRENCE said it could not be considered that the
payment to persons holding dishonoured bills was a fraudu-
lent preference
The COMMISSIONER said it was unnecessary to discuss that
point at present, it was a case calling for a rigid inquiry.
Adjourned till the 16th of May.

The last day of the Craven meeting does not often produce
much sport; on this occasion, however, the racing was of
first-rate excellence, the list having furnished a very sporting
match, a most exciting post stakes, and three closely con-
tested races. To suit the general convenience, the last race
was run at two o'clock; and we may compliment Mr. Hib-
bard, not only on the efficient manner in which the horses
started, but on the rigid observanee of time—so that, by the
admirable arrangements on the road, all were enabled to
!each Chesterford in time for the regular train, the special
cue being thus rendered unnecessary. So much delay, how -
ever, took place at the stations that the train did not reach
Shoreditch until one hour and a quarter after its proper time.

dian Corn to Ireland, in the Rhadamanthns steamer, for the
use of the starving peasantry there.

moderate supplies of grain reperted this week. We have a
fair business passing iu all descriptions of Wheat to-day, and
former prices are fully supported. Barley of heavy quality
sells freely, without alteration in value; common sorts are
difficult to quit, and rather lower. Beans dull, and middling
sorts a trifle cheaper. Oats Md. per stone, and Shelling 6d.
per load higher. Malt in good request.
The officers, comprising the United Service Club. in

square, it is stated, is also in contemplation ; meetings of the
members haying lately been held on the subject.
