LAW INTELLIGENCE.---(TEIS DAY.)

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
EX PARTE SMITH AND SMITII.-A QUESTION TO BE
NOTICED IN THE NEW BANKRUPTCY DILL.

In this case Mr. Lowrance made an allowance for costs
under peculiar circumstances. He said that, in the first
instance, a petition in bankruptcy had been presented, but
it was afterwards thought that it would be better to effect
a wind up of the affairs under the Arrangement Act ; that,
however, failed, and a second petition was presented under
the Bankruptcy Consolidation id-, and the whole of the
estate was now in the hands of the official assignee, but the
oosts of the previous proceedings remained unpaid. He then
asked for the costs of the miging petition and those under
the Arrangement Act, which had been assented to by the
court.

His Honour—What do the costs amount to ?
Mr. Lawrance—X66, but out of that there were two £lO
stamps. _ _

His Honour—This is a very circuitous mode of settling
affairs, but if the asbignecs under the actual bankruptcy do
nit oppose ?

Mr: Lowrance said he would take the order, providing—
he did not expect any opposition—there were amp,le funds
in hand, and his clients had only been anxious to protect
the general interest of the creditors.
His Honour said that the (Ada' assignees had an oppor-
tunity of knowing the state of the affairs, and if the funds
were in hand, and the assig-nots did not object he would
not, but the costs must be taxed.

Mr. Lawrance —Of course—we submit it for taxation.

POLICE INTELLIGIO CE-(TIIIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CASH-BOX BOBBBRY.—George Wild, a young man, was
charged with stealing a cash-boa containing about £5 in
gold, some silver, and receipts and memoranda, the pro-
perty of Mr. George Hall, 10, Lisle-street, Leicester •square,
carpenter, &c.

Mr. Hall said that on Wednesday afternoon the poor-
rate collector, Mr. Pettit, having called for some rates, he
went to a drawer in which his cash box with about £5 in
gold was placed, when he discotered that it was removed.
He immediately called his wife, and on her examining the
drawers, it was also founi that about 30s. in silver
belonging to his son was also abstracted. Suspicion at
once fell on the prisoner, who had been placed with him
by a benevolent gentleman, And for whom he had obtainod
a situation, he lodging with him. Prisoner having ab-
sented himself, one of his workmen, named Smith, suc-
ceeded in tracing him on the Brentford-road, by whom he
was given into the custody of Wood, T 138, who found on
him £3 in gold, 6s. in silver, a purse, and receipts. He told
the constable he had thrown the cash-box away.
The above facts having been corroborated by Wood, T
138, Mrs. Hall, the wife of the prosecutor, and W. Smith,
of Market-row, to the last of whom the prisoner, on being
taxed with the robbery, said it was all true.
Mr. Beadon asked the prisoner whether he wished to say
anything, and the prisoner pleaded guilty.

Mr. Beadon then said he should commit him for six
months with hard labour.
