was an emphatic declaration thai Congress

Important Decision in Bdakruptcy.--The
very important and much mootcd question
rs TO the effect of attachments Of the prop
orty Of bankrupts prior to the institution of
proceedings in bankruptcy, was decided by
Judge Story on Saturday, at Boston, in an
opinion of great length, in which he discus
sed the whole subject with his usual abIi.
ty and clearness. The result TO which he
came was, that such attachments pould not
hold the property, but pould, in effect, be
dissolred BY the proceedings in bankruptcy
This decision is considered Of more mpor.
lance by legal gentlemen than any which
is likely 10 arise under the bankrupt law,
and in some States it will make n vast diff.
ference in the effects Of bankrupts. Judge
Story remarked that, as the decision was
of great Importance, he should furnish it
TO the Law Reporter for publication, and
he hoped the counsel in the case would do
the same with their arguments.
