IN RE - CURRELL.

The insolvent in this case, a billilrl-table-keeper and
tobacconist, came up to-day for his interim order. His
debts were 285/. 43. 7,1, and little or no assets.

Mr. Buchanan, vho appeared- as solicitor to oppose,
strongly pressed the insolvent to set aside a certain sum
of money a year (M.) out of the returns of his busi-
nass, which were stated by the insoh•ent to he about 3/.
,ler week, fir the liq&dation of his debts, to save an op-
position whiel would be fatal to him.
The insolvent said he would pay WI. a year.
Mr. Buchanan said he would acctde to 201. a 3 ear,
but not 101., and thi refore his oppceition was founded
upon the ground that the ins Ivent had not complied
with the marginal note of the p, tition, inasmul as that
he had not stated his places of residence, and the period
of abode within the last twelve months.

The Learned CommssioNEa considered the objection
taken by Mr. Bachanan to be fat and therefore the
petition must be dismissed.—Petition dismissed.

IN RE PAN'S.

This insolve,.t, who had eariied on business as a coal-
op:reliant in Kennington-oval, r.ame up fu- an interim order,
and was opposed on behalf of Mr. Langley, a surgeon, for a
debt of 25/. _ . .

'Fhisground of opposition was, that the insolvent's debts
only amounted to 179/., to meet which he had a i income of
140/. a year, arising out of funds in the Four per Cents. The
creditor's solicitor said it was quite absurd to argue that a
person situated like the insolvent was entitled to relief under
the Act.

The insAvent said he bad been driven to the present
course through the proceedings of Mr. Langley, whose
debt atnounte I only to a little more than 201. He (insol-
vent) had accepted au accommodation bill for lOt, which
Langley was to have taken up, but bad not dune yu, -141%
Langley then pressA him to trecorio si,curify fora loan
society, which he 400414 A breach of friendship had re-
sulted, and Mr. Langley had brought an action.
The Learned COMMNSIONER asked the insolvent whether
he was di,ipoSed to make aoy proposition for the payment of
his-debts?. The ins !vent said he really could not, far, in the
first instance he had not re rived any money under the trus',
and : the; trustees anticipated great difficulty in obtaining it,
and that' even when obtained, it would belong to his wife.
The Learned Co3tmtssio-Ell said, at ther.e'war, no disposi-
tion to meet the ease ho should dismiss the petition.
