TIE BANKRUPT LAw.-For the benefit of oul
readers, and those who may wish to take the bene-
fit of the Bankrupt Act, we publish the following
from the Edgefeld Aduetisr
'"There is said to be great diversity of opinion
among lawyers and commissioners in bankruptcy as
to when the fifty per centum clause Of the bank
rupt law went or will go into effect, and that the
question will probably be submitted to Chief JUS
tice Chase for decision. A glance at the law itse
will show that there is no ground upon which tc
base such doubt. In section 33d it is provided
"And in all proceedings in bankruptcy commenced
one year from the time this act shs go into opera
ton, no discharge shall be granted to debtor
whose assests do not pay fifty per centum of the
claims against his estate, unless the assent in wr
ting, of majority in number and value Of his cred
itors who have proved their claims is filed in the
case at or before the time of application for dis
charge
The act went into operation June l, 1867.
