LAW INTELLIGENCE—Sept. 11.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE"

This was a..trader "debtor summons. The case
involved an important point in respect to practice
and costs. The debtor was served with a writ for
441. on the 28th August. No further proceedings
could be' taken under that writ before the 24th of
October. To meet this the debtor was also served
with a trader debtor summons. Payment of the
debt and costs were tendered, minus the cost of the
trader debtor sumnagns. It was urged that the
debt being under 591. - no adjudication of bank-
ruptcy could be made, and that the COurt could not
allow the costs consequent on this summons.

His Honour held that the debtor must pay the
costs under both the forms of proceeding, and that
although the amount of the debt: was under 501. an
a't of bankruptcy would be committed if the claim
were not forthwith settled.

It follows.that the lay, vacation allows no protec-
tion• or respite to debtors whera creditors take pro-
ceedings in this court by summons. - •

IN BE TYLER.

The b%nkrnpt was formerly lessee of the Royal
Surrey Gardens. Tbis was a meeting for the
choice of a trade assignee. Southby, pyro-
technist, was appointed. . '

until the 29th of October was granted, with re-
newed protection to the bankrupt.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.--SEPT.

(Beforu-Mr. Coiudiission9r Murphy.)
IN ItE JAMES DIGBY WRIGHT.

Tnis insolvent, described as of no trade or pro-
fession, was opposed by Mr. Reed for Mr. Yeat-
man, hosier in Regent-street. Several o editors
appeared in person, named Reeves, Bonthron, Ed-
mist?n, and Porter.. Mr. 'Sggood supplrted.
In 1851_ihe' insolvent was di.iaharged under the
act. He now owed about 2,0 )01., and had 103
creditors on his present schedule. He had been
seven months in prison;' and was in a bad state of
health. He had been a lieutenant in the Artill-ry,
and, with the exception of two years ended in 1856,
when he was in the service of the Great Western
Rad way Company, he had been in no business or
profession;'--He had assistance from his friends and
was entitled t 2 some reversionary interest. He ob-
tained hosiery goods of Mr. Yeatman's shopman
to the amount of 181. some odd shillings .in the
name of Captain Digby Wright. He took apart-
ments at the house of a Working man named
Reeves,• one of the oppesiner'. creditors, Where he had
C°five servants" and owed 441. Mr. Bonthron, a
baker, bad a trade bill and cashed a check of a
person named White, who was now in Australia.
Mr. Edmiston, waterproofer, of 69, Strand, com-
plained that hesoi an opera glass from him and a
waterproof coat ; and the other complainant was a
washerwoman. - .

On the part of the opposition it was urged that
the iniolvent had. pursued a reckless career of ex-
travagance, and had no reasonable expectation, if
he ever had the intention, to pay his numerous
creditors. •

- - .
Mr. Sargood.Made an appeal to the Court on ac-
count of the insolvent's state of health and the im-
prisonment he had already suffered.
Mr. CommisSioner Murphy said he meant to give
a long judgment. It was a case df reckless extra-
vagance. He found among the debts one for an
for his wine. He could not consider the
insolvent's state of health so as to prevent him pass-
ing a long refoand. The learned Cotnroissiener
gave a judgrdent of 12 calendar months, remarking
that had he not }peen in. ,prison seven month 4 he
would have given hitrt 18 months' imprisontneljt.
