CONOLLtS BANKRUPTCY.

Yesterday being the day apirointed for the foil ex-
amination of Charles Conolly, a number cif his creditors
attended, and exhibited very 1 nag face-. Aniongat iltem
was the tradesman who, in advising his son to induce
the bankrupt to give extensive orders, used to %ay t
him, "Call upon Conolly. Bob; that's the man for us.
His custom is worth ally money ; *tick it into him, Bob."
Upon each of the former days, debts to the amount of
11,0001. were proved. Yesterday the debts proved
amounted to 1,7001. One proof was tei:cted.
The Commissioners who sat were Mr. hoer, Mr. Stnitses, and
)Ir. Basun asr.
Twelve o'clock was the hour appointed for the examination, bill
the bankrupt did not make his appearance.
One of the Commissionefs asked tale of the Assignees to the
estate, we believe, whether Mr. ConoNy was present!
The Assignee replied in the negative.
" Man !" said -the Coanuissionen, " do you suppose be has
oohed?"'—(A laugh).
The Assignee said he could not say that; but Mr. Cannily was
not presept, and there seemed to be no expectation that be would
make his appearance at all.
Commissions's—The questions put upon the second examination
were not likely to be relished by hilts.
The Assignee said, that as Mr. Cottony bad appeared at the first
and second examinations,perbaps he would attend upon this 'occasion.
The Commissioners then proceeded to other Commissions, and
Conolly's was ordered to be user to three eclock'ost which hoar
proclamation is made of bankrupts wise abscind.
Soon afterwards one of the Commissioners obierved, that doe
care ought to have been taken to employ a Bow-street lacer, to
prevent the escape of the bankrept.
To this observation it was replied, that the Assignees bad ino
power to apprehend the bankrupt until the night before, and that
at that time tbe bankrupt had disappeared.
N three o'clock Coatilly was proclaimed% and outlawed.

Mr. &VDUS was proceeding with 'his reply in this
case, which WAS for on it:junction Os restrain tht defen-
dant from practising 'iaa surgeon in Newgate-street, or
within Ste miles of ito contrary to the terms of an agree-
ment entered into with the plaintiff, but his Lordship,
consjdered that he oeght td have an affidavit from a
person of the name ot. Ballantint) and the motiOn_ tub
ordered to 'stand over for.that .purpose.

JUDCIIIINTOrtroD ionss.
His LOnDstiii Stated- 64 he 'ivas prepared to state
the impression that had been made ,on hit 'mind. after
having read all the papers and evidence in this case,
which was under discussion yesterday. It was clear to
him that Mears& Pelting and Co. at, a Meeting that
bad taken place between them, Johns, Shiells, and Mr.
Carpenter. had agreed to render themselves personally
cod directly liable to Mr. Carpenter to the amount of
all the remittances he should make to them, and con.
sequentlp_under the partnership if Johns and ShieUs,
Mr. Carpenter was entitled to bare his drafts upon.
Paring and Co. honoured to the extent to which 'he
had teMitted, and he was not to be drawn against the
partnership estate of Johns and • Shiells, but that that
was to be Messrs. Perring's retort, for whatever Johns
and Shiells might have overdrawn their London account.
Observations had been made it the bar upon the, man-
ner in which the accounts bad been, kept, the charges•
for interest, Litc. but this did not defe.st the agreement
alluded to in the slightest degree: This view of the
case agreeing with that taken by the Court below, his
Lordship confirmed the ord.r.

LIST OP MOTIONS;
.Great confusion having arisen in getting motions
Inetspht forward, in which all tbeConnsel were prepared,
• His Loahauar mated that he should order a list of all
random/
pendietbefore the vacation to be made out,
sad that afterthirds the hearing of them should be mar-
shalled in thi 'manner that should seem the most con-
venient.
Mr. SMIDIII observed, that such a plan would greatly
relieve the- snitarl because he was perfectly satisfied
there war not a motion pending in this Court but in
which khe suitor was charged for attendance every
.

This was an action of trespass brought bythe plaintiff;
an inhabitant of Stone-buildings, tincojn's Inn, against
the defendant, poor-rate collector of the parish of St.
Andrew, Holbbra, for having illegally' entered hie
piemises to levy a poor's-rate. This was ihe'forns'iof
the action ; but the real question. to. try _ whether
that part of Lincoln's Inn called Stone-buildinas was
liable to pay the peteclkili -assessment' of the parisli
of Sr. Andrew, Holbbilki ' This being eke third `Mid
of the question, and, *Client; incladingllie
dosing Term, the tenthatillt-of its being bevoglahatore
the public, we deemit weeibiary to do women then call
to mind the nature of the plidasiff's claim to esemptjon
from parochial assessment. It is kontenaed that that part
of Pocoln's-inn in question is emu parochial,. from h
&wing formerly been the site of a monastery ; from its
Arming a chapel of its ogefn; in which Divine Serve is
DO; adlit which marriages were performed tilrthe
•
Marriage Ait in 1754; from its supporting its own
Clergy quite independent of the Clergyman of St. An-
drew; Holborn ; from its supporting its owe poor and
foundlings found in the Inn, never having in any manner
cast a burthen on the parish I and front having been
front time tmmemotial exempt Isom thelability to pay
parish assessments.
Fur the defence, it is contended that the ground in
question is within the parish of St. Andrew, Holborn,
from a gnat made in the time of Queen Elisabeth, de-
scribing it Si such, and from the parish boys of -St.
Andrew, Holborn, io their triennial perambulation; al
ways baling included it in their round, whilst other part.
of welts were included in those made by the idjoin•
m oa-Ggisitasm, CAIIPSZLLI Mns Bab-
StesICIT
inascity and Mr. hinout, appeared on iseitalf of , the
_plaitstii; Sir JAW ea SCAM(. r, Mr. GUIIIIST, hir,Ser-
. paint inawsrissia, and Mr. COLISIDGIN conducted
the defendant's use.
. The reading of the documentary and the perusal of
oral evidence, with the speeches of Counsel, as bad here-
. wince happened in the former trials of this cause, re-
copied the whole day. The passage leading to the I
Coon was neatly choked up with piles of records; aor:
a waggon loaded with the books kept by the parish of
McAndrew, Holborn. for.ages past, stood at the Hall-
door, in case of their being wanted.
• • Lord TIIIITEIIDIIII, in summing up, left it to the Jury
to say whether the ground in question was in.tlie
mat of $l. Andiew,llolboto, above bars, or was eau.
