HOLDERSor SOUTH SEA AMERICAN BO:

-
A Meeting of the Holders of South American Secu-
rities was held yesterday at the City of London Tavern,
at two o'clock. pursuant to a requisition signed by seve-
ral Holders, and publicly advertised in the Papers.—
The Meeting was very respectably attended; and Mr.
BAHIN-0. M.P. *as called to the Chair.
Mr. G. It. Itosies;nt said, be bad to submit some Resolutions to
the Meeting, and in doing so he had only to say, that it would,be
open to the Meeting to make any observations upon them. •
were drawn up hastily, and would admit of course of many verbal
alterations. The object in view was to enable the Mexican and
South American States to resume the payments of their respective
dividends. He thought it quite useless to gelato retrospective matters
to inquire how they got into their present insolvent condition; for,
in his opinion, the better way would be to consider at once of the
best method of getting paid the money that was due to them. He
then read the following Resolutions, and moved that they be adopted
by the Meeting—
lit. That it appeared to the Meeting, that the loans to the States
of klexico, Colombia, Chili, and the other South American States,
amounted in the aggregate to the sum of seventeen millions, and
that the interest thereon amounted to the sum of 913,9601 t anti that
the same was In default, both as to the Dividend and the Sinking
Food for paying I,ff the principal.
.2d. That the British public had come forward with great good
feeling to assist those States in a time of great difficulty, and that
they therefore malted the punctual payment of what they bad ad-
vanced ; and
3d. That the Chairman and seek other persons as the Meeting
might think proper to appoint, should confer with his Majesty's'
Ministers upon the subject of those claims, and solicit their inter.
ference for the protection of the Bondholders.
These were the Resolutions, which be hogged to submit to the

consideration of the Meeting.
A klostotiowea asked if there was any prospect of those States
being enabled to pay the dividends, for if not, it was useless to
come to any resolutions at all.
Mr. Kosice said, that be believed that such a consideration was
not the object of the present Meeting. He thought Government
would deem it to be important that so large a sum of money
should be recovered, for whether they dealt in money or goods.
they were equally entitled to:such protection as Government bad
been in the hAbit of affording wlen foreign countries bad become
defaulters, He considered that it was useless to go into the inquiry
of the insolvency of the respective Governments, the object of the
present Meeting being merely to give a public espression of the
feeling of the Bondholders 'upon the non-payment of their Mei.
dends.—After some further discussion the liesolutions were even-
tually agreed to, and the Meeting adjourned.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, MAY I.

that the Learned Counsel trusted his Lordship would

COURT OF KI•NG'S BENCH, Moir 1.
ILVICNSII V. 11.401INDLII. •

The defendant in this case, on being arrested, paid a Ism ef
money into the hands of the Sheriff, to abide the event of the
Ault, or to be withdrawn on " perfecting" ball, as provided by
the stew Act fur the regulation of the practice of arrests for
debt. He afterwards went to prised, and was discharged under
the Insolvent Act. Iles assignees now applied to this Court
for an order to take the money out of the Sheriff's band., to be
Applied for the benefit of the creditors, on the ground that it was
provided by the last Insolvent Act, that creditors to whom a peti.
tioner ender the Act should have given a warrant of attorney,
ts. cognovit actione, or the like, should, on the petitioner's obtaining
his discharge, come in and share like the rest of the creditors.
The COUR? said, that the late Act for the regulation of arrests
was subsequent to the last Insolvent Act, and the former said, the
money must remain, to abide the event of the suit, therefore there
was no ground for this application, and It was unnecessary to call
bn the other side to show cause.
