IX-IPART2 DI //ATTU% Olt DLVAINEZ A' 'O.
This eery idiportarit case came on by petition before
the Lotus CAANCELLOCt,.which was argued for several
flays by the heads of the Bar.
The prayer of the petition was, that the dividends
under the Commission of Bankruptcy now pending
'against the four surviving partners of the late house
of Devaines and Cb. Bankers, of Pall-Mall, Westmin-
ster, who failed for a vim of E 177,117, owing, in
great degree,*to the previous, failure of Williams and
Wilson, of Liverpool, who failed for £560,000,
and had involved the house in Pall mall, and others,
in bankruptcy, should be suspended until a bill filed
by the surviving partners, Dawes, Noble, and Co.
against tote representatives of Mr. Devaines, for .an
account, claiming 4 balance from the estate of the de-
feated of £lll,OOO, which would increase the divi-
.elends, and relieve their effects so far, shall be brought
t.) un hearing.
The LORD CtiANcrstoct, in a learned judgment this
day, stated, that he bound no precedent for granting
the prayer of this petition, or compelling the credi-
tors of the four to forego their dividends for the be-
refit of the creditors of the five, unless the creditors
of thr.four were likewise creditors of the five.
His Lordship refused the Motion, reserving to
himself the opportunity of stating on Thursday next,
any further -directions relatitig to his present judg-
inent, of varying it.

.of Oram, to recover from the defendant, brother to
tin: bankrupt, £13(.0, the amount c,f several bills
which the bankrupt had put into the hands of his
brother, two days before his bankruptcy.

Pe one, the payment having been made by the bank-
rupt in satisfaction of a just debt, and not in contem-
plation of his bankruptcy.

Cielice an examination of the defendant bell,re the
Commissioners, in which no mention is made of the
bills being in satisfaction of a debt. The Jury, ac-

declined in value. There was no alteration in the

price of cheese since the last fair.

There has been great damage done by the heavy
rain on Wednesday afternoon, about Swindon,
Wroughton, Aldbourn, 'Lydon, and neighbourhood ;
and at Draycot, six miles north of Mar ugh, the
water rose six feet perpendicular in the space of an
hour, and several pigs were drowned.— On Thursday
morning, at nine o'clock, the hail lay almoet a foot
deep in Aldbourn fields.
It is a pleasing cirenmsianee to relate, that a Reme-
dy is offered which completely removes that unplea-
sant seirettion, (itching of the nose and seat), which
for ages has been severely felt, both by infants and
adults. A striking instance of this was lately verified in
a respectable lady of rank, who, from the above afire-
tion, was necessitated to decline all company, till by
Dr. GAIWNEWS Worm Medicine she was perfectly
restored. This complaint arises from small worms
called Aicarides, which breed once a month. 'The
