LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1867

The morning sitting of the House of Commons
was occupied by the discussion on the Bankruptcy
Bill, which the Attorney-General explained had
been modified since the last stage. It did not appear
that the House takes at all a favourable view of the
affair, if we are to judge from the various com-
ments that were made upon it. It is true that there
is no snare complicated subject brought before the
House than this one, nor upon which more various
opinions are found to exist. The most learned
seem to fail whenever they attempt to put their
hands to this task, and after using all their efforts
they find that their ingenuity is not appreciated at
all in the manner they expected. We cannot see
that the changes which have been made in this bill
are for the better, for they are very stringent in
some respects, and the arrangement that the bank-
rupt's estate afterwards acquired should always be
liable for the remaining sum due to his creditors is
one not likely to be popular, and in many cases will
be likely to workunjustly. Sir ROUNDELL PALMER'S
defence of his own scheme was a good one, and he
pointed out that there were difficulties in the way of
the present plan. Mr. MoFFArr complained, with
some justice, that there was too much of the old
spirit of officialism in the measure, and that is to be
regretted, because the public have long been weary
of the cumbrous character of these rules and regu-
lations. The Scotch bankruptcy system is one
which has long worked satisfactorily, and never fails
to command the attention of all who give their
attention to its peculiarities, and it does indeed
seem a pity that it cannot be adopted in this coun-
try, but it seems that the time has not yet arrived
when our lAwyers will see the advantage of sim-
plifying matters.

The real object of Bankruptcy Courts should be
to obtain as much as possible of the debtor's pro-
perty for the benefit of the creditors, and surely
both learned and simple observers must recognise
that, this end gained, the rest is zecondary, if not
unimportant. The consequence of the plans pro-
mulgated and adopted in England has been to in-
crease the cost of procedure to such an extent that
it often occurs that the interest of the creditors is
sacrificed to the vindication of the prit:eples of
-.mane. It is to be trusted that some arguments
of this sort will have weight with the committee of
