THE NEW LAW COURTS.

Mr. LAYARD, in reply to Mr. C. Bentinclr, said
the sketch of Mr. Street now in the library of the house
was very beautiful, but as it was a m sketch he did not
think it necessary to say whether it had received the ap-
proval of the Government or not. If the Courts should
be placed on the Thames Embankment he would take
care that a proper medal should be made out and placed
in the library, so that there might be an expression
of opinion on the subject. (Hear, bear. (What
he had suggested was the style best adapted
to the purpose would be Gothic, but not ecclesiastical
Gothic. With respect to the three principle towers in the
sketch he could not at that moment say for what purpose
they were intended.
THE BANKRUPTCY BILL.

The house then went into committee on this bill, which
fixed the minimum for bankruptcy at £5O owing, while
the bankrupt would be liable to all the penalties of the act
if he made any false statements or reservation.
Clauses to 28 inclusive were agreed to.
The further consideration of the Bill was adjourned till
a two o'clock morning sitting on Mosley.
OXFORD UNIVERSITY STATUTES BILL.

This Bill passed through Committee, and was read a
third time and passed.
The house then adjourned.

Race Glasses, byVoigtliinder, are now no longer the ex-
clusive luxury of the rich. Since the great demand for
photographic lenses has diminished, au opportunity has
been afforded for applying mechanical power with the
greatest success, whereby the cost of th,,se beautiful and
most perfect instruments is reduced in price in some
instances to as much as 20 per cent. In fact they are now
no dearer than those of the best French or English makers.
At the depot Callaghan, 23A, New Bond-street, corner of
Conduit-street, the patrons of the Derby may indulge
their taste in the posse scion of a veritable Vnigthiuder at
comparatively trifling cost. It is superfluous to say the
quality is as ever matchless.
