ltiE GRAVES OF A HOUSEHOLD.

FAUN ?HZ MONTHLY MAGAVNIL

They grew In beauty. side by side,
They fill'd one house with gka—
Their graves arc sever'd far and wide,
By mount, and stream, and eta!
The same fond mother bent at night
O'er each fair sleeping brow,
She had each folded Bower in eight--
V here are those dreamers row'
Ore, midst the forests of the Wcst,
It a dwk stream is laid !
Th. Indian knows his place of rest,
Far in the cedar shade !
Abe sea; the blue lone sea, bath one,
Ile Iles where- pearls lie deep ;
He was the lov'd of all, yet none
O'er his low bed may weep !
One sleeps where southern vines are dresb'd
Above the noble thin,
lie tempt his colours round his breast,
On a blood-red field of Spain !
And one her the myrtle showers
Its leaves, by soft wind famed, •
She faded 'midst Italian flowers,
The last of that bright band!
. And parted thus, they rest who play'd
Gentath the same green tree,
hoes melees mingled as they pray'd
Around one parent knee!
They that with smiles lit up the hall,
And cheer'si with song the hearth—
Alas, for love, if that went all.
And nought beyond, on Oath !

LAW R E rEfRT:-:

COURT OF CHANCERY, Demists 14.
DEL Po NV V. DE TASTET.

F. H.

The LORD CHANCELLOR. upon coming into Court,
stated, (hut he had read the papers in this important
c4se, and the result to which he had brought his ft.ind
upon the subject was, that the money in dispute must
be paid int . Court.
IN Tilt MATTER OF SIR WILLIAM ELFORD, DART..:3
BANKRUPTCY. EX PARTE GILEs. 1

Mr. Hoax; and Mr. GLYNN moved the Court, on a
retition,•,hat the commis,:on should be set aside, and a
new one isued. The ground of the application was,
that the debt of the petitioning creditor, Mr. 'link, did

not, on the 25th of November last, when the act of,
b4nkruptcy comn.itted.anirrunt to the sum of WOE.
. Inasmuch ac advice of the regript of some dividends of
Mr. Truk's, paid to Messrs. Hoare, Barnett, ani Co.
on that day in London, was not received by Sir ‘Villiam
tlford's hank, at Plymouth. until the.2Bth.
Mr. HEALD and Mr. MONTAGUE, on the other side,
a fished to state the facts exactly as they were, and to
abide.by his Lordship's opinion ; but it was impostant
to the creditors to support the peseta commission, as
extents had, since it was opened, .been issued by the
• Crown to the amount of 50,0001. Mr. 'Fmk .was an
old Gentleman, and thirty years Since had executed the
pow er of. emu ney to the Gentlemen who then composed
the firm of Messrs. Hoare, but only one of them now

sue vived, and he happened to be but of town when the
dividends were payable in October;
.he came to town
on the 25th of November, when he received the divi-
slcuds from the Bank of England, at two o'clock in the
afternoon. The moue. was, as usual, placed to the
eiedit of Sir William Ettore!, at least- that war to he
rresumed, and constituted a sufficient debt, without
alvice. A case had been decided in the king's Bench,
that of Simpson v. Ingham, reported in the second vo-
lume of Ilarnewall and Creswell, p. 65, which seemed
to render advice essential; but they (the Counsel) con-
sidered that that case was not applicable to the present
question, since a distinction must be drawn between a
particular case and the general one of bankers, with
u hoar it was a • custom that the dividends of the cus-
tomers in the country should be credited to the country
banking house. -
The Loup CHANCELLOR wished to see the power of
attorney, and to ascertain if any written direction ac-
companied it, to place the dividends to the credit of
Sir W. &ford. This (said his L.Tdship) is nest a mere
question between A B and C D, but one in which the
u hole body of creditors 'are interested.
Mr. MONTAGUE and Mr. GLYNN are to settle a
statement of facts for the Lord Chancellor's considera-
tion, the objeCt of all the parties being, that a commission
should be woi ked, grounded upon a sufficient debt.
T.-e Chancellor will then determine whether the ',Resent
commission shall be proceeded in, or a new one issued.
