Valladolid with great precipitation, and taken the

on their way for France. At Burgos it is reported
that they were met by JOSEPH BONAPARTIp who ie

arrived at Valladolid, in close pursuit of the enemy.
At Valladolid his rjlship took 4000 French sick

ployed by the; creditors, instead of applying through /
the medium of the attorney under the commission.
Now, setting aside other objections to this proceeding ,
he would submit to his Lordship, whether the dill- '
gence of one attorney was not quite sufficient to ex-
haust the estate of a bankrupt ; at all events, he
could not see the necessity of fastening the ezpences
ofa second on the property, especially when that was
done without even applying tor the previous sanction
of the Court.
Mr. MDSTAGUE followed on the same side. He
opposed the application with much reluctance and
pain ; for, if it were acceded to, he doubted not but
he should very soon become rich. But he was called
upon to oppose it, and in so doing he would conjure
his Lordship to remember who were the petitioners :
Longman, Rees, and C". respectable publishers—
men who would rather look after any thing than
paltry dividends on their debts fi om a poor bankrupt's
estate—at alrevents, they were individuals who doubt.
less felt more anxious to obtain Ws. in the pound out
of poor authors t He trusted the costs would not be
allowed agreeably to the prayer of the petition, espe-
cially as they who had incurred those expellees had
incurred them for their own benefit.
Sir S. RONIILLY, in reply to the objections, observed'
that justice was on the side of the petitioners; arid he
must beg to remark, that there were other names of
equal consequence with those of Longman ~nd Co.
among the petitioners—there were amongst thew,
Lackington and Co. Hughes and Co. as well as that
of Hatchard. Mr. Montague might be convinced
that Longman, Rees and Co. did nq care a farthing
about the small dividends upon a poor bankrupt's
estate; lout could Mr. M. say as much for the other
petitioners s' Those gentlemen had sworn to me cir-
cumstance ; the estate had been materially benefited
by what had been dune; and he (Str S. K.) did nut
'conceive that joie: were any answer to the solemn as-
severations of their affidavits. In one instance, four-
teen hundred pounds had been saved to the estate ;
fur that was the amount of a debt which hat' been
brought forwatd by Sir R. Phillips, but which that
get tleman had abandoned, in consequence of the ex-
ertions of the joint creditors. They had also forced
R. Phiiiips to give up the lease of Mr. Tabart's
house, in Bund-street, which he for Solite time had
held, and , refused to resign it till they compelled
him. Were these thingi nothing ? Yet these things
had the petitioners accomplished--aad sines they had
thus proved that they proceeded for the benefit of the
estate, were the costs of those proceedings to tall on
tlietr own shoulders, instead of being paid out of that
elate and of those funds which had been so materi-
ally benefited? The estate undoubtedly had dei ived
benefit front what the petitioners had dune ;valid the
question was, whether the estate ought not to pay
the expences of obtaining that benefit?
The LORD CUANCELLOR observed, that the appli-
cation was of a nature quite unprecedented. ghat a
benefit had resulted to the estate, appeared to be evi-
dent; and undoubtedly it was morally just that the
expellees of obtaining such benefit ought to be de-
frayed out of the estatb so benefited. zut this was
the first instance he ever remembeied where another
Solicitor had been employed to manage the affairs of
a bankrupt's estate without the sanction of the Court,
when there was the Solicitor for that purpose under
the commission regularly appointed. The Solicitor
under the commission ought to have been engaged ;
or, if there had been any objection to him, use sane-
tion of the Court ought to have been obtained for
another—then the tests, of course, would have been
paid out of the estate. Though the conduct of the
petitioners had proiNced benefit to the estate, yet, as
the employment of others than those sanctioned by
the Court had not been authorised, it could not or-
der the,payment of those costs which had been incur-
red by such unsanctioned proceedaigs. -for Linn to
authorise this proceeding, by ordering the payra...ilt
of costs, would be to set a dangerous precedent—it
would be to sanction the transferring of the joint al-
fairs of the estate from special anu authorised con-
trol, to separate and unsanctioned management—it ,
would be to remove that guard, without authority,'
which had been placed upon the affairs of the biota-
rupt by the Court, in the person of the Soiicitur to
the Commission. It he was to sanction such a pre-
cedent then, as this was the first application, so he
jeered it would not be the last. \, nee he remem-
bered haw beneficial had been the proceedings of the I
petitioners, he could not but lament that it wts impos-
sible tor him to concede the prayer of their petition.

COMM OF CHANCERY.

rx-fteDIP—THISTLEICOOD as Me matter of TEMPLE.
In this. case the LORD CRANCEI,LOR said, that the
question on which he had to decide was, whether the
value of an annuity granted by one person to another
was to be valued ( provided the Grantor became after-
wards a bankrupt) at the same price it originally was
obtained ror, or whether it acquired' any additional
valuer He was not fully aware oldie forms of the
Court, and the manner of its deciding on 5110 cases ;
but be was inclined to think that it must acquire value
rather than lose it. In this case, when the annuity
was granted, the life of the annuitant was considered
so precarious that the Albion Company refused toin•
sere it. But his Lordship held that in such cases,
between A. and B. the personsemployed in such busi-
ness never took diseases or infirmities into account,
though they always did 'aetween their own Directors
and A. or B. His Lordship said, that he remember-
ed a compliment which the late Lord Kenyon paid
to him, (as Lord Eldon said) which he at that time
did not deserve. He was arguing a case nearly si-
milar before Lord Kenyon, when he (Lord Eldon)
had been about• ten years at the bar, Lord Kenyon
said,—" If you had granted me an annuity for £lOO
six years ago, I should now buy it of you six times
over, for 1 know that you will soon be exceedingly
well able to pay me, and much better than when you
first granted it."—" I had then (said Lord Eldon)
been ten years at the bar, and had not more than one
hundred pounds a year, and certainly, although Lord
Kenyon paid me that compliment, I little deserved
it, for I had no appearance then diming mote able to
pay."— Judgment deferred,

This was an 'application on the part of the bank-
rupt to have his commission superseded, on the
ground that le had never been a trader within the
weaning of the Bankrupt Laws.
.Sir S. kostictr, in support of the commission, cited
a variety of instances in which the bankrupt, who
Vas a publican, bad sold casks of porter, and gallons
of gin, out of the house—;-the same bring sold in larger
vidarititiei than a person could have thought of pur-
chasing or consumption in the house of the bank-
rupt, at one time.
Mr. HART read the affidavit of the petitioner, in
Which he stated, that the furnishings, in larger glum-
tities than could be consumed by any person at. a
time, were all made to one person, who was a miller,
during pond fishing, to be sold in small
, quantities to
persons there assembled, in 'the same manner as was
usually done at cricket-matches and races. The acts
of trading sworn to, it was also shewn, had taken
place two years previous to the contraction of the debt
to the petitioning creditor.
The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that this was a
Very small matter on which to ground a Commission
of Bankrupt. His Lordship thought the acts of trad-
ing relied on were not sufficient. He ordered, there-
fore, that the Commission should be superseded, with
costs; the bankrupt undertaking not to bring an ac-
tion on the bond.

Ex tart, SAMSON, in the matter of BARRER.
- ' Mr. RICHARDS and Mr. CULLEN applied, on the
part of the petitioners, to .:xptinge a debt, for the fol.
wing reasons : first, that Dickenson, whose name
. .
appeared In the fitrn of Barber and Dickenson, was
ik wavy—and that Dickenson, sen. was the real part-
ner ift that house; and, secondly, that usurious corn.
Illiksiion had been charged. .
Sir S. ROMILLY and Mr. LEACH contended, that
*Circumstance of the name was of no consequence,
as the crstlit was given to the firm ; and as to the
questicn of usury, they denied that there had been
any usurious contract; all.that could be said was, that
p. perhaps some hems were overcharged.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, under these circtunstan-
*es, would not allow the debt to be expunged, bat
directed an account before the Master.
OAVIES, IN THE MATTER OF BOLDER() AND CO. BANE-ERS
AND BANKffirrs.
This was an application to allow Davies to come
in and prove se2oo, under the commission issued
against Bolderos.
From the statements of Counsel, it appeared, that
' lit hackarey and Co. of the Leeds Bank, had drawn a
lilt 4f.xchange on Boldero and Co. their London
oprtesp'endents, in favour 'of Davies; but it had I
never been accepted by Bolderos. Davies not having .
presented it in time, nor had it been paid. • It Wits
contended that Davies ought to come in, inasmuch
• as Boleros had funds to meet it, and that the act of
' flying a bill in favour of Davies was a virtual trans. I
. fer to him of so much of the Leeds Bank funds, then I
in the hands of &Mews, as would meet that note.
• Thackareys had not proved for this sum under the .
commission:
The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, if Thackareys
.4vould go in and prove to this amount, there would
be no occasion for the petition; but he Could not.
I force them so to act, if that firm was not willing to ,
1 . prove for the benefit of Davies. He, however, could .
r/' not see how he could grant the prayer of the peti. I
tion.—Petition refused.
BOLDERO, IN THE MATTER OP POLDEROP.
! This was an application to the Chancellor to affirm
and ratify a deed of gift. •
It appeared from the statements of Counsel, that
a daughter of Mr. Boldero, who was one of the firm
of Boldero and Co. bankers, recently bankrupts,
Lad married not long since; and that on that occa-
sion Mr. Boldero had made a very handsome provi-
eion for her, by making over to her a large sum of
money. That deed of gift had subsequently been
questioned as invalid, it having been made, as was
contended and proved, during the time of the insol-
aency of the house of Boldero and Co.
• . The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the fact was
sufficient. The deed of gift having. ' been made
during the time of the insolvency of. Mr. Boldero,
deprived it of validity. It was certainly a case of
'au ch hardship, but he could not grant the prayer
of the PetitiOn.
„Losommt, NikS, AND OTHERS, IN,THE MATTER OP
