THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the EAST
INDIA COMPANY do H' EERY GIVE NOTICE, that a
QUARTEttLY GENERAL COURT of_ the sail Company will be
held at their house, in Leadenhall-street, on WEDNESDAY next,
the 3Cth instant, at Eleven o'clock In the forenoon, by adjournment

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—June 24.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner, Evans.)

J. D. DICKINSON, Secretary.

IN RE FELIX CALVERT AND CO._,
Messrs. Ca!vert and Co. were extensive brewers.
Their affairs have for some time been winding-up
under inspection. The inspectors certified, under
the 224th si cion of the Bankruptcy Consolidation
Ac', that six-seveuths of the creditors in number
and value, whose respective deb's exceeded 101,
had given their consent to the estate being thus
administered, and they applied to this cuurt for a
certificate to that effect, :to that the. estate might
continue to be thus administered. •
Mr. Roxburgh and Mr. Lawrence nowappeared
on behalf of the inspectors to support the applica-
tion ; Mr. Bagley for Messrs. Cornett, trustees for
an infant ; and Mr. Murray, for Messrs. Glynn
and Co., hankers, appeared in opposition.
Mr. Roxburgh said the claims amounted to
868,195/. Of hese unsecured claimants to the ex-
tent of 780,000/. and claimants to the extent of
30,0001., who were fully secured, had given their
signatures in favour of the inspection.
-Mr. B tgley u ged that the deed under which the
inspectorship wasfoundei was not within the Mea-
ning of the Act, and that its effect would-be both to
1 are the unsecured creditors a^i h no hing and tit
deprive there of future kagaiteetnedy. The learned
counsel proceeded to cite; " Ex pasta Lawrence,"
vol. 19, page 6; Bankrtipteferases in Law journa
and " Ex parte vol. 24, page 6, Banks
ruptcy Oases, is the same journal. He contended
that the requirements of the law included the giv-
ing up of the entire estate of debtors.
It appeared from the examination of Mr. Quilter,
accountant under the inspectorship, that the deed
f inspection was signed by 428 creditors, of whom
two only held security. The latter had signed for
the uncovered porion only of their debt. His
-information was f undel on statements prepared
by his clerks, and information furnished by the
firm. Mr. West in and Mss;rs. Vandercomb
and Co., solicitors, had also taken part in furnish-
ing the information. Altogether 30 creditors held
security. In all cases except two the securities
held by these creditors were sufficient to cover
their demands. The property they (he 30 secured
creditors) held was of the value of nearly a million
of money, and their claims amounted to about
600,000/. The valuation had been founded on the
valuations from time to time made by the firm and
entered in their b:oks. Mr. Orgell, who was ac-
quainted with the value of property of the kind,
hai been called in since the suspension, and he had
confirmed that valuation. Of the secured creditors,
whose claims amounted to 600,090/, about one-half
were ct editors against the joint esta e and one-half
creditors against the pdvate estates of the partners.
He could not pledge his oath that enly two of the
creditors who had signed held no security, bat, to
the best of his belief, they did not. The Citilderley
estate, which was subj-cted to a first mortgage of
33,000/., was valued at 48,000/., and the brewery
and plant were valued at 260,000/. Messrs. Glynn '
held the security for 48,0001., also proeeity in St.
Paul's churchyard valued at 15,0001., and whieli
was subject to a first charge of 6,000/. If a let er,
a copy of which hid been in his possession five or
six week-, gave Messrs. Glynn an equita,lile mort-
gage on the brewery, they would be fully secured.
his statement was prepared from documents sworn
to by the parties. He had had access to all the
books of the firm, and the partners had furni-hed
hint with every information he required. In the
event of Messrs. Glynn proving unsecured credi-
tors to the amount of 20,000/. the deed weuld,
nevertheless, be executed by above six-sevenths of
the un-ecured creditors in number and value.
It appeared from the exerninatien of Mr. Ed-
mund Calvert that prier to 1854 the firm consisted
of Mr. Felix Calvert, Mr. W. H. Calvert, Mr.
Ladbrooke, and himself, and that it had since that
period been joined by Mr. Johnson and Mr. Phil-
lips. He gave Mr. Quitter every information he
required. That information was correct and true ;
nothing was withhe'd.
Mr. Bagley cited the case of " Ketley and Tay-
lor" in the Court of Queen's Bench-, and "Drew
and Collins" in the Oulu t of Exchequer, and con-
tended that the deedof inspectorship was not within
the m-aniog of the 224th section. The deed was
net to administer the estate, but to carry on the,
business, and creditors had been induced to sien it
by t hepromise of interest. The inspectors had power
to renew leases, but no assignment of the property
had actually been made to them. The scope of the
deed, in fact, was not to administer the estate, but
to carry on the buSiness. There was little or no-
thing for the unsecured creditors as the estate
now stool. If the business should b 3 carried on
at a loss, as it had previ •u-ly been, th re would
clearly be nothing for then,.
Mr. Murray said the unsecured creditors were
now returned at 868,0001., having previously bt en
returned at 765,000/. or 719,0001. The claims of
Messrs. Glynn under the security might be preju-
diced by the estate being administered under the
inspectorship.
Mr. Roxburgh contended that the deed bad been
duly executed, and that it was imperative on the
Cou tto certify accordingly. Tue objections
urged applied as strongly to administering the
estate in bankruptcy as out of court. The case
was one of magnitude, there being creditors whose
claims amounted to 80,000/. or 100,00.3. It was
to be supposed that six-sevenths of the creditors
knew their own interests ; and they preferred in-
spection.
The Conarrii,sioner.—This is a very important
case in every point of view, and it is important
th •t it should be decided. I ft el very strongly
upon this covenant that it is not an assignment,
and I do not consider it necessary tb-consider the
questien further. In this ca e, supposing several
creditors had not, for some reason or another,
notice of this meeting, they might come and take
all the properly from the other creiitors. I think
there should be an essignment to the trustees, and
that the others should act as their cl rks or servants
to carry on the business. I therefore feel it neces-
sary to refuse the certificate.
The effect of the decision of the Court is that it is
open to any dissentient crell.or to institute pro-
ceedings for an adj
w-licai iota of bankruptcy.

DISCOVERY OF HUNAN BONES IN A GARDEN. ---Aff a lad
in the employ of Mr. Billington, undertaker, 13, High-
street, Deptford, was digging holes for clothes-posts in
the back garden, he came upon some bones which turned
out to be those of a nearly complete human skeleton.

found at the same spot. Information was given to the

WOOLLEN MILL DESTROYED BY FIRE AT LITTLE-
BOROUGH.—Yesterday morning, about four o'clock, the
woollen mill of Mr. Fletcher, at Smithy-bridge, near
Littleborougb, was discovered to be on Sre, and owing
to the distance of the place from any station for fire.
engines, and the difficulty of procuring a supply of water,
the place was gutted ere the flames could be arrested.
The loss will be about 3,5001., but the owner was in-
sured. A man who slept in the mill bad a narrow
escape of suffocation.
The suspension was announced yesterday of Messrs.
Fenn, Kemal, and Fenn, wholesale grocers. The house
was old and respectable, and the stoppage is stated to
have arisen from an examination of the acoounts conse
quint upon the death of one of the partners. The lia-
bilities are reported to be 50,0001., but are not generally
supposed to be so great.

the ground, and flanked on either side by the field bat-
teries and the Royal Horse Artillery, the whole in com-

failure of medicine to effect the cure even of those diseases
which have been longe t known, and have for centuries baf-
fled the labours of surgeons and physicians, it is a cheering
thing to learn, on trustworthy aud undubitablo authority,
that science has at length discovered, not a drug, not a
nauseating and disgusting compound, but a sinide and de-
lightful article of natural diet, which in lures speedy and
effectual relief iu cases where all other appliances had failed.
Fifty thousand personal tea' imouies to the eflieacy of D,

reason for encouraging the hope, and WO feel justified in
saying that which we shoal(' be reluctant to affirm except
in tha face of a body of evidence which it w,aild be ab-
surd to gainsay, that there really appears to us to be no
reason why any person, however afflicted, if there be a
moderate portion of the vital stamina remaining,
should now despair of the recovery of health and vigour.

The Earl of DUCK presented petitions from fourteen

The Bishop of OXFORD presented petitions from

THE SLAVE TRADE.
The Bishop of OXFORD begged to ask the noble
earl, the Under-Secretary to tee Colonies, when the
papers relating to the horrible crime which bad been the
subject of discussion the other night, would be laid of
the table I and also with re-peot to the exportatipit of
estell a, whether her Maj-sty's Government were prepared
t , take in hand such measures as might be reees-r
for purifying that trade / Tne reason why be was
mai els to get an answer was not only tha
the immediate evil, tbe kidnapping of men,
might be cbecked by the interference cf the
government, but also because the 1-gititnate exports-
ti ms of those who were willing to go—a thing of the
first moment—(bear; bear, from Lord Brougham)—was
endanstred by the continuance of the compulsory
exportation which brought upon the free emigration
the taint of the slave trade. The different journals
in this country in the interest f slavery w uli stu•
thou iy and I tboriously endeavour to represent that he
and those who took the same view with Lim
were opposed to the free emigration of
o)4 lit e. Nothing could ba more untrue. The
exportation of coolies to the Mauritius was
attended with great bent fit not only to the island but
to 'he coolies themselves, who being perfectly free, oftt n
returned home, and, by their accounts, induced their
countrymen to emigrate. It seemed al the greatest
oment to put a stop to the forced exp .rtation as the
rise of that ill cit traffic threatened the existence of the

THE LATE ATFACK ON THE BRITISH CON-
SUL AT BELGRADE.
Mr. GRANT DUFF asked the Under Secretary for
Foreign Affairs whether any detaqed account of the
recent events at Belgrade bad been received by the Go-
vernment relative to the 14e attack on the British
Consul At Belgrade, and if so whether be had any objec-
tion to state the eabilapne, f 1.41/ousel
Mr. S. FITZGERA: *a e Government had
received a mare cestaittereseerwernt of the partiertfara of the
attack than w.sa in his possession when the question was
a-ked him on a former occamion. It appeared that Mr.
Fonblanque was walking, as usual, on the ramparts of
the to en, and eat down on' a wall that skirted it.
He was b,ckoned to by one of the soldiers on
the fortress above, but Mr. Fenblar que, who
knew that he was entitled to be where he
was pointed to his cap to signify that ke was the British
Consul. He also stated that be was the British Consul,
and thought no more of it, but shortly afterwards the
soldier rushed out of the gate of the !ortress and attacked
him with his sabre, with which he inflicted on him seri-
ous injuries so severe that he was confined to his bed,
and was obliged to obtain leave of absence to get medical
advice. The Turkish Government hai shown the most
cordial wish to give every satisfecion, an 1 bad mani-
rested every desire to probe the affair to the bottom, and
had declared that they would be ready to punish, in the
most exemplary manner, the authors of the outrage.
There were. other circumstances which showed that the
hostile feeling was not confined to the soldier himself
who inflicted the injuries on the British Gamut, but that
it was participated in by his commander, because there
was an attempt alter wards made to cut down the British
flag at Mr. Foublanque's house. The Turkish Govern•
met.t had, however, instituted the most searching inves.
tiga ion into the circumstances.

After some di.cnssion, in which Lord Haddo, Lord

Toe LORD ADVOCATE supported the clause. He
assured the committee that if be thought the fusion of
the c,lfeges would tend to diminish the efficiency of the
educational course be would be the last man to propose
it. His proposal, so far from deatroyinr, would have the
effect of extendin, and improving the curriculum in
both colleges. (Hear, bear.) The financial consolida•
turn which the bill sought to effect would result in the
establishmei:t of one substantial, well provided, and
efficient instau:ion in the place of two half starved, in-
efficient, and antagonistic colleges. (Hear, hear.)
