LAW REPORT.

COURT OP CHANCERY, Avon? $.
IX PANTS WRAY.
Mr. Haw applied to suspend the insertion in the
London Gazette of an adjudication of bankruptcy. The
Commissioners, after. having .signed the adjudication,
thought that the proof of the petitioning creditor's debt
was not sufficient, and they therefore desired, under his
Lordship's authority, to prevent the publication.
The Loss Cnaneesies said, that tinder the circumstances stated
to bini, be could sot rehabs the order prayed for.
VICR.CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Avow e.
RI PARTS FARQUHAR AND OTHERS. IN THE MATTER OW,
storticat, BANKRUPTS.
ThiL was a petition, praying to be admitted as equit-
able Mortgagees on the estates of the bankrupts, for
money advanced by the petitioners to the amount of
several thousand pounds. The petitioners are bankers,
and the bankrupts were brewers in Westminster, who
kept an account with them, which from time to time
they were allowed to overdraw. For the balances thus
created against them a mortgage on part of their pre-
mises was given. Soon after they had occasion for far-
ther advances, and sums to a considerable amount were
advanced to them, and paid on account of their bills by
the bankers, and as a security for those sums, promises
of a second mortgage were given, and some documents
were depodted in fulfilment of those promises; and the
prayer now was, that the bankers, under those circum-
stances, be allowed to comein as equitable mortgagees.
It was contended, on the part of the assignees, that the
petitioners were not entitled to what they now claimed,
on the ground that many of the advances made were
made at periods when the bankers must have been aware
that the Stet keys were in insolvent circumstances, and
In woof of this it was asserted, that they had made
some of these advances when they must have known
that the bankrupts bills had been allowed to be dis-
honoured even for a small amount. It was, (hemline,
contended that the motion ought not to be granted, and
that no order ought to be made by the Court without
directing a previous inquiry into all the facts.
The VICI CHANCELLOR said be had looked over the
affidavits with great attention, and he could not, under
all the circumstances, bring his mind to a conclusion
that the bankers acted in any other, than a fair and bona
/de manner, or that the advances made by them lions
. time to time, were made without the expectation of the
security of a mortgage. His puniest impression was,
therefore, that they were entitled to what they now
prayed. However, he would again read carefully over
all the papers, add should any doubt on the subject
occur to him, he would again mention it to the Peti-
tioner's Counsel.
RE PARTS GOULDING, IN nil MATTES OW O'NEIL AND
MARTIN, BANKRUPTS.
. The question in this case (vide STAR of yesterday)
ems bow far the joint estates of the bankrupts should
be liable for a bill accepted by one of them,in the name
of the firth, bet for his own private-debt, and without
the knowledge-of his partner.
. The Vice CHANCELLOR this day gave his judgment,
which he observed bad wsitten, to prevent any mis-
take, as the question was one of Considerable importance.
After recapitulating the facts of the case, his Honour
coocluded in these wordst-14 lam of opinion that
whereone partner gives an acceptance, in the name of
the firm, in satisfaction of his own private debt, and
without the knowledge of his copartner, such an accept-
ance-cannot bind the joint estate.
The peados was therefore refused.
ax PARTS GOWER, IN THE MATTER OS WILLIAMSOII.
The questitibin this case was, bow far the assignees
of a bankrupt were bound to fulfil a contract entered
into by him. The bankrupt had purchased a quantity
of wool, on an agreement that he was to pay down a
• certain sum, and take the wool when he paid the re-
mainder. Hi did make the deposit (of five per cent.) on
• the whole purchase, and afterwards took a part of it
ewer and paid for it In the meanwhile the price of
the article fell in the market, and the assignees thought
that they were nr,t bound to fulfil the contract, the bank-
* rapt having forfeited his deposit,and thus put an end to it.
It was now contended for the petitioners. that it was a contract
tegs=si ste ev d into, aid that the bankrupt having taken part of
the bis mignon, were bund iu the terms of the contract to
take away the remainder.
The Vacs CHAICILLIAL was Hthe same opinieo, and ordered the
wed is be INA and the petitioners to be allowed to prove against
the boakiept`a estate for the difference between the present pries
and that which be had agreed is give.

Monday sianight, about half past one o'clock. P.M.

his boat. He bad rounded the Bar, seaward, visited
• Torquay, and was on his return, when about are p.st. a
thu ',der:corm came on; the lightning was most vivid,the
ind•sprung up, and, veering to every point of the
compass, blew a complete whirlwind; the boat encoun-
tered one of its violent gusts, and, with its inmates (Mr.
ritalatill and an old boatman) instantly disappeared.
the accident was seen from Torquay, where the Rev.
Gentleman bad just left, and a boat put off to rendet
assistance; as the precasts in it neared the spot they saw
• a person in a white shirt swimming and vainly endea-
vouring to buffet with the tremendous waves that rolled
into the Bay) but before they could near enough to
render assistance he hid sunk.
