TURPIN IN RE-BROWN.

His HONOUR the Chief Justice gave the judgment of
the Court this morning, in the ease which was heard some
time since before their Honours, on the petition of the as-
signees of Brown, praying that the trustees under his
marriage settlement might be directed to invest the divi-
dends they should receive under his estate in Govern-
ment securities. The facts of the case were, shortly these :
—Brown, the bankrupt, on his marriage, gave a bond to
secure 3,0001. to trustees. Some time after that event
he became bankrupt, and under the commission the trusters
of his marriage settlement had been admitted to prove in
respect of the 3,0001. Under that proof they had re-
ceived up wards of 1,2251., and the question now was,
whether the trustees should be allowed to retain
the dividend till the whole amount had been paid.
The Counsel, on behalf of the petitioner, argued
that such a course was contrary to the whole prin-
ciple of the Bankrupt Laws, and, in support of that pro-
position, cited the cases of ex-parte Smith, ex-parte Groom,
ex-parte Vernon, and Mittford v. Wratton. The Court
rook time to look into those authorities, and had now una-
nimously agreed in the opinion that the Trustees ought to
be allowed to retain the dividends and interest as they
should arise, until the principal sum of 3,0001. should be
realized, and that then the dividends should be paid over
to the assignees.

The people in the places in the Highlands, vi-
sited by the Glasgow steamers, are in a dreadful state of
alarm, and are all on the qui rive to prevent cholera being
imported from Glasgow. Ere a landing is allowed at
Lochgilphead the steam-boat steward appears on the
paddle-box, and a person on shore administers an oath,
and then takes a deposition as to the good health of every
person on board.
