Bankruptcy legislation has in no country
been altogether a success. Too much has been
invariably expected from il, and systems more
or less imperfect have been condemned for
faults inherent rather in the body polite in
which they operate than in the scheme of adj
minstraliOn adopted as law England has
successfully adopted every system of lqndat-
ing an insolvcnts estate, from the most official
to the most unofficial, and has condemned them
ALL She began the century with cumbrous
system, not unlike the Court of Chanccry a.
described in "Blcak House." system which
absorbed all the assets of an estate and divided
nothing among the creditors. In 1919 a new
Court # Bankruptcy was constituted apart
from the InsOvcnt Court administering the cs-
tates of nOn-tradcrs This Court adjulcated
upon the conduct Of n debtor, granting him
discharge and a certificate Of his conduct of a
first, second or third class, in proportion to the
honesty Of his record. In 1861 the two sys-
TENS of bankruptcy and insolvency were
united in one, and the distinction between
traders and non-tradrrs was abolished The
English commercial public bore this system with
patience till 1869, when the Court and
all its officials were swept away, and an unof-
fetal system was adopted in its place. This new
law was propOunded chiefly by the commercial
community themselves. Mr.. Samuel Morley,
VI. P now visiting America, took leading
part in framing the measure which placed the
estate entirely in the hands of the creditors
with the Court as a consulting referee only.
This system has given as little satisfaction as
its predecessors. Last session two bills were
introduced to set aside the law of 1869: one
by Mr.. Chamberlain and one by the Attorney
General. Though not identical. their provisions
are similar in Teinaugurating an official system,
with this distinction, that one transfers the
jurisdiction to the Board of Trade and the
other TO the Lord Chancellor. While the pro-
poslls of these eminent authorities are COM
peting for public attention another great
writer adds his quota to increase the public
perplexity. Lord Sherbrooke, in The Nineteenth
Century, in answer to the query "What shall
we do with our bankrupts ?" boldly answers
Nothing; neither prosecute nor discharge them;
but after exhausting the remedies Of the
common law leave matters TO right them
selves in the slow process of time. He
enters into wide subject, the comparative
responsibility of creditor and debtor
He argues that as it takes two TO create q
quarrel, so it takes two to creates a debt; and
the responsibility of the creditor who holds
out the temptation of credit is as great as that
of the debtor who accepts it, There are
large classes of the community in this country
who agree with Lord Sherbrooke in deprecat-
ing a bankruptcy law, but they should bear in

Fortunately there are q few things in the world
outside OF politics and big conventions To-mor-
row the Ncw-York Horticultural Society will hold
its second autumnal meeting at Republican Hall,
West Thrty-third-st. and Broadway. 1t is not
expected that there will be any thrilling and ex-
citing scenes such may reasonably be expected IN
the Academy of Music on Wednesday, although
there likely to be keen competition for the prizes
offered. No plant flower can at all ap-
proach the Orchid in beauty and singh
larty. Nature in making this weird and
picturesque class was evidently in of her
most whimsical moods, and INDUCED in all
sorts Of odd freaks, which are crystallIzed into
fantastic forms and gorgeous coloring A
good display OF these ezra tic plants is
expected. In addition the chry santhemums,
the glory of autumn, will muster in
strong force aud will be supported by carnations,
roses dahlias and otaer cut flowers while by way
of dessert, both foreign and native grapes are
to be rCpresen ed. As the eXhib ton i5 open to
the public free from p. IN. to 4 p. M, 1t
is hoped that lovers of handsome fruits and flowers
will be present in goodly numbers. Nothing
siren gthens the hands of the Society so much as
growing public interest in its exhibitions, and he
worl. it is doing is so excellent and links itself SO
closely with all that is beautiful and useful in both
town and country life, that the Society deserves
hearty and i'll ielligent popular support.

The sympathy of the English people with our
own in the time of our great sorrow has flr-
nished a theme to q thousand presses and ten
thousand pulpits, and will never be forgotten
so long as the same blood runs in the veins OF
both nations Mr. Smalley, in the letter we
print to-day, tells some of the personal Illus
trations of the universal feeling of English
men. which are of a kind that the cable would
not transmit Perhaps the most encouraging
feature of his observations is that with respect
to the great unity of feeling with the Amcrl-
can people which the common sadness seems
to have brought about. The sentiment of the
people was evidently not Oyerstated in the
newspapers. The old conventional terms Of
reference to America were swept away, the
little lingering aspcrties of the time OF our
Civil War disappeared, and the two peoples
became, for the time being at least, as one

The owners of the steamship City Of
Merida, bound for Vera Cruz, do nOt feel any
alarm for her safety, although the friends Of
the few passengers have been made nerv0us
by the report that small boat belonging to
the vessel he'd been washed ashore near Cape
Hatteras. There certainly seems TO be no
ground for apprehension. The steamship was
recently thoroughly Overhauled, and she is in
the hands of a good captain, it is said. More
over, no storms have been reported. One
boat from the vessel might easily have been
lost in many ways.

There seems to be much difference of opin-
ion in the committee in this city having in
charge the contributions for the relief of the
Michigan sufferers as to the proper way to
distribute the money; and there is almost a
quarrel about it between the towns III Michi-
gan. If the Governor of Michigan would take
the matter in hand, the difficulty might be
quickly settled by the appointment of cen
trail committee in that State to attend to the
work of distribution. A squabble of this kind
is unseemly, and likely to discourage contribu-
tions, wbich\ are greatly needed. 1t ought to
be promptly stopped.

for further subscriptions to deiray the expenses

for this purpose will doubtless cause a material
increase in the funds of the association, despite

there shall be no weak point in her Aslatic
frontier. compelling her to act on the defen-
siye. On the contrary it viii be her aim to
turn to account every element of discomfort
that exists in British India, so as to deter any
other British Minister from bringing native
troops to Europe. The candor and tirmness OF
the Russian journal may be traced to the good
understanding which the three Emperors have
established with each other. With the fate OF
Egypt in doubt, England cannot take any
steps to check the growth of Russian power
in Central Asia, while the revived triple al
lance renders the peace of Europe secure.
NJ. Roustan the little resolute-lOOking man
who hes played so prominent part in the
Franco-Tunisian affair, is now, it appears, at
Tunis, invested with full power to settle every
question that may arise. When recently IN
Paris, the Resident Minister advocated vigor-'
ous, unfnchiDg military repression, ana
blamed the Government for its irresOlulon.
He declared that the City of Tunis should
have been occupied last May and that the
finances ought to have been reOrganized under,
of course French supervision. He contended
that Karwan should be attacked and occupied
by strong force; that the Bey should be " IN
duced" to abdicate that 25,0OO more troops
should be sent to Tunis; and above all things,
that an energetic commander unhampered
bv daily orders from Paris, should have con-
troll. As NJ. Roustan has carried his point in re-
gard to the march on Kairwan and the MILL

larged authority will enable him to accomplish

The DEATH in the eghty-second year OF his age, OF
Count DAlbanie Charles Edward Stuart, occurred
suddenly on board o steamer coming from Bordeaux
on the night of Christmas Eve. His corpse taken
Oh shore soon after death and temporarily inferred in

to being brought to Scotland to be placed by the
side of his brother John Sobieeki St0lberg Stuart
at the burial ground of Eskdale, the estate OF
Lord LOvat. Under medical advice the Count DIAL
banie late last year had gone for his health TO Bar

benefited by his sojurn there very considerably.
His father, James Stuart. Count DAlbanie, is be-
eved BY many persons to have been the Inmate

Der, 1900.
The Morning Post says that the late Count, who
suffered a considerable reverse OF fortune on the
his fate, and lived II comparative retirement IN
South Belgravia for nearly twenty years. The like
ness both Of himself and his brother to the Royal
House of Stuart was very marked moreover, their
great and varied accomplishments, 'their personal
bearing their grace and charm OF manner, their in
nate dignity and the right royal manner IN which
they patiently accepted poverty and sorrow, surely
marked them off from the common herd. In Scot

ton which was thought due to their position, and
many of the Scotch nobility have consistently and
