vourable to the execution of this plan; but their ma-

nimous concurrence was necessary, and that concur-
fence could nut be obtained: I did not despair however
.of renewing this salutary operation at a future period."
The plan purpose's to embrace the following results:
r lief to contribu ars, security to creditors of the State
of all descriptionk, and the restoration, or rather crea-
tion, of public credit. TK!'plan itself is to consist in
.a Pauolidation, and in Supplenreataey Boar. By conso-
lidestion is unders:ond the securing to the debts con.'
verted ieto Government annuities (renter use l'Etat)
a • value 'trial to the capitol reprerented by she:: an.
nu;tiet, and guaranteeing to the creditor, the reit.
Gzation of that capital without deduction of any
. kind at a stated period The creditor by this means
would r ecei ve tranderablepaper bearing interest,which
die could realise according to its nominal value at a
fixed period, by receiving from GovernMent the dif-
ference between us nominal and its current value, it
such difference existed at that period.
11, contrary to expectation, that difference were
considerable, Govtannient would, by resorting to the
Sicking Fund, or some other powertul resource, re*
deem a part of the public debt, and. thus raise
_1
value of these aennitits. riff( I. 041
"The creation 4* these Sfippiensetlfary Boer;"
.says the Projector, " contains'a of credit
hitherto unknown ; it operates itrainstiitock jobbint
Niotne), since it tends to increase and keep up the
price of the fundt, It the annuity falls, the Supple-
mentary Bon Trines; it the Supplementary Bon falls,
the annuity rises : for instance, the annuity being at
60, the Boa Supplementaire is at 4.0; if the annuity
is at 90, the Bun Supplementaire is at 10."
The Supplementary Bon is a private engagement
on the part of Government to pay, at 4 fixed period,"
• the ch fferei,ce rhea existing between the value of the
annuity or inscription, and the capital for which it
nAS OAP in payment; it would, therefore, only re-
main to fix the period for the payment of these Sup-
plementary Bons.
This, period should correspond with that of the
consolidation of the credit of the State, which in all
humus probability will date from dae time when the
foreign engagements of France will. have received
their entire performance. Fiance having then fulfilled
her engagements, and enjoying peace within and
without, there is ground for thinking that her credit
will be such. :Is to render the Supplementary or Con-
ditional DUllb superfluous, or at least to have so re-
duced them as to their purpose, that the diffeelknoe
which they represent will be very trifling.
The foreign contributions, consisting of 700 mil-
lions, payable within five years day by day to the
. Allies, together with ISO millions to be paid yearly
• during at kilt three years, for the maintenance of
150,000 troops, make in all'a sum cff 1,000 millions.
ic The raising of such a sum, or, fan of it," says
M. Onward, "'by means of a Loan, either abroad or

at hone, by giving the lenders the equivalent in in-
aeripiion on the Great Book of Franco let an ennuis)

Lean would not take place without the 'lineation of

vemtnent and continuance of.peace."
" These considerations (oonchides M. Ouvrar4),
induced me to solicit the aid tend interference of one

of the TOO millions to the Allied Powers, by giving

defendant to pay intp L hurt the sum of £6900,
being the purchase motl for an estate which he
had bought of Sit Gerard Noel, Bat t. and the stun of
4450, being the sum at which the timbyr growing
.on the said estate was valued, might be dismissed;
aid if his Lords* should not be pleasedt.:ao grant
that prayer, that he would be pleased to enlarge the
time for the payment of the money into court, from
the first day of Hilary Term until the first day of
Michaelmas Term next ensuing ; and in a speech of
considerable length contended that although the de-
fendant had appeared to exercise several acts of
ownership, yet he had done no more than every ho-
nest man was bound to do, namely, to prevent the'
estate falling into decay.
Sir SAWA!. ROMILLY, for the plaintiff, contended
that the prayer of the defendant ought not to be
granted. The plaintiff had been saved with a no-
tice, stating that the defendant intended to move for
an enlargement of the time for paying the money
into Court, but that had been withdrawn, and
another notice served, which kept them totally in the
dark as to what the defendant intended to flume for.

Mr. Downeswrt.r. observed, tire defendant had
kept posse...ton for three years without paying, or.
even off sing to pay, any rent ; and now stated his
inability to pay the amount of the purchase money,
in consequence of misfortunes and losses.
Mr. WINGY;ELD contended, 'hit the application
was merely made in order to gain further time.
The Loan CMAIICICIAPIt observed, that in the affi-
davit of the plaintiff it had been sworn that the ab-
stract bad been served on die defendant or his attor-
ney ; and if there appeared any quibble as to the ser-
vice, it would raise a doubt in his mind as to the pur-
chase ; he therefore ordered the case to stand over.

This was an action for money had and received hy
the defendant for the plaintits use. At the trial be-
fore Lord ELLINICIa0;1011, in the Sittings at Guild-
hall after last Term, the plaintiff was nonsuited, en
the ground that the, action was not
.maintainable in
this form. •

Mr. &amen' now moved for a Role Niti to set
aside the nonsnit and obtain a new trial. Tha ac-
tion was brougbt to recover Lilo, andAbi ease was
sliiss....'lle.pkintilk were bankers at Maidstone, and
the &fondant was provisional assignee of Messrs.
?enfold and Co. also bankers inthe same town, who

bad become 'bankrupts. Previous to the bankruptcy
the two houses bad been in the habit of exchanging
their paper abaft twice a week, and settling their re-
;reties balanoeslit the end of each week. At the
.tube Of the bankruptcy, there were in the hands if
the bankrupt house two promissory notes of the Ed-
*mit house, athounting together to 4610, payable to'
tearer at 'the bank it Maidstone, or at their agents'
ill tendon. . The plaintiffs, on the other hand, bad
promissory notes and other piper of the bankrupts to
*considerable amount, which was, then unpaid; so
that upon the balance there would be is considerable
debt due to the plaintiffs from the Onklugis. The
pointincinly relied upon by the.piaiutiffanc the trial
was, that thedefsadant, who was. provisional assignee
of the bankrupts, came down to Maidstone, and being
informed that the ism notes in question were covered
by bills of midway of the bankrupts. in the-handset
the plaintiffs, and would be set off in, account in
proof befosethe Commissioners, he, notwithstanding
this information;took away the nOtes'to London. and
received the money for them at the.plaintiff's bank-
ing agent's in town, • who. not knowing the circuits.
stances under whieb they bad been obtained by the
ath:aslant, paid them readily.
Lord Eu.inaoaeoon was of opinion, that as the
notes had not been separated ftom the rest if the
bankrupt's effects, thiur still rensained the property of
this assignees ; and his Lordship inset a ins' to see
how en action for money bad and received could be
maintained under such circumstances; but said, that
probably the accounts between the bankrupts and the
plaintiffs might be released by another sort of action.
The Learned Counsel then aciptieseed in his Lord-
ship's opinions but upon consideration he thought ,
that the *se might be pat in another way. By the
S Geo. IL e. SO, s. a, the Commissioners were
bound to. take an eaten& of the moto4 debts be-
tween the bankrupt anthis tuetotners, and allow no
more to be proved against the estate than the balance
found to be due. He 'Omitted, therefore, as the de-
, resident was apprized 'Of the claim which the plain-
tiffs had against the bankrupts' estate, which would
more than cover the amount of the notes, he could
not by means of fraud possess himself of available
securities which had been satisfied by another mode ;
and be could be in no better situation than the beak-
rapts themsetves would be.
' Lord Euxuaoaounn said, that his *lotion at the
trial was, that the sort of action which the plaintiffs
ought to have brought was trotter; but spun consi-
deration, he'wes • not 'quite Ow that the *jai&
might not waive 'the tort, and bring money bad and
received' for the atiffount Of the' notes. His Lordship
therefore, thong:lean worthy alertly, cow,

fore Lord Elienborengh In the Loedostilittings 'Etc!
last Term the plaintiff hed a verdict.
Caareasa. now moved to set aside the verdict
and enter a nonsuic or obtain a new trial. The par.'
ties resided in Lancashire where the bill was made ;
I but it was specially accepted, payable at Messrs.
Dennison and Co.'s, bankers, London ; and the only
question was, whether there WAS snfficient evidence of
, the bill having been presented for payment at the
place where it was made payable? The evidence
was, that the Notary's Clerk had presented the hill
at the house of Dennison and Co. between six and
seven in the evening, when he was informed by a ser-
vant a' the door that there were no orders. It was
admitted, that between sin and seven o'clock in the
evening was past banking hours; and that if the
money had been forthcoming, it could not haie hien
paid then. It was therefore now contended that this
was not sufficient evidence of a presentation for: p'ay'
milt, and Parker v. Gordon, 7 East R. 385, was
cited.
The Court, however, were of opinion, that if the
bankers had a servant waiting to give the answer, it
was quite sufficient ; and consequentlT, it was not
necessary to the due presentment that the banker's
shop should be open and all the clerks festered to
the counter. Ordinary hours of business had no-
thing to do with the questioe, as sufficient answer
had been given when the bill was presented, and,
consequently, there was nothing in the objection.—
Rule refuses!.

Oa ezadiiiiing Mr. Wilkinson as to the situation of I

which was broken into was severed from the dwel-

"so directed the Jury, adding, that there was no evi-
dence against old Harris, or the woman. •
The Jury, after'some deliberation, found young
Harris, Willis, and Pettit, guilty of simple laece.l.
