1 Messenger Correspondence hkliU/r tfttuwlurd :

The "Bankruptcy correspondence" of last week in tho columns'bf the STAXDAUD is

I good—too good to be lost. It should not be I allowed to sink into oblivion, to receive only : a casual uoticc from Uie careless reader. What a modest man the correspondent must be ! His effusion written at Buffalo July 14lh, but remaining unpublished jyrjfij jtboy^Wi I

j Where could ho havo kept it all this time? I It could not have rsmaipcit ijjdden in the ! young man's bosom—tnc'ristiar receptacle of 'secrets,.. May thu£ods be thanked for grant-iuj? ';Uiln. coUrafts «to take his letter to the printing olllcc, even at the end of two weeks.

i Ah! we take back all we have said about :modesty, for in tho "Bankruptcy correspon­dence" itself we ffnfl a sufficient reason for a

| delay of two Weeks, oV'eVcn more. J-rirtg j HALL, before whom the motion

: was made, decided that the assignees should • be confirmed, and on motion of Mr COUCH, o»d so confirm thcra, upon thft. JttoiuidB thah lfc-VoVtrJ-WcWfraTtfis ii/Awtrfofcc Its' nWlc' by the crcditore." The learned arguments of Messrs. (!iifefii)uo Slid SMiTrt, the counsel for the assignees, are wholly lost sight of in the report'of the Bankruptcy correspondent, on the spot, who, wc four, is only blowing his own trumpet. It wiw-'ttot lyodosly, but leap of dotsction that kept. the nmmiserlpt from the pftHWf? 'Wad th'd'Bankruptcy cor-

; rw^uiidei/ii not t<x\d }u»iiic)ula Uiavhe$$aec-ted to see. a certain article this week in the

i S't'AMiAui), perhaps we should not. have ; kjarfwii,,th,c lu'tcfsyj locality of ti«! new star. • The correspondent seems to have been so much elated over the success of Mr. Couou against a court room .full of opponents, that ho could not read figures aright. The peti­tion opposing the assignees, says "J.," was signed by but 101 creditors, when he ought to know it was signed by 141 in person ; and

i the1 petition' of MESBKNUER'S friends to sus-' tain thejsajgtffjes w«S t#gftfd$y ^ 1 t/cdi tors, mostly personally." He might just as well have said idi, stood, it porsujnally, for il would have b'cen biil'JjUlc wither fip;n the truth. "J." knows tliiit 25 did not sign Al pei-sonally, and a little portion rtf the others were sigiied by attorneys whom their princi­pals never saw; oj hsail} e / i ,K
