creditor of such estate, should be forthwith brought by Saturday such official assignee, together with a separate list thereof Monday. under each estate, to any one or more of the commis- Tuesday. sioners of her Majesty's Court of Bankruptcy, who Wednesday should thereupon be at liberty to cancel the same, and Thursday. to direct such several lists to be filed with the proceedings of the respective bankruptcies: And whereas the said order further authorized any one or more of the said commissioners to make such order or orders as should be necessary for the preparation of a new draft or drafts for the dividend or dividends due to any such creditor or creditors, upon his or their applying for the same, and directed that such new drafts should be prepared in the form described in schedule B, annexed to the order of the Lords Commissioners for the custody of the Great Seal, dated 31st October, 1835, and should be signed and countersigned in the same manner as the original draft, and afterwards paid by some one of the cashiers of the Bank of England, out of the monies standing to the credit of the general account of the Accountant in Bankruptcy.

We do therefore order, that, on the application of a creditor for any dividend or dividends, the official assignee of the estate from which such dividend is payable, shall, if satisfied that the creditor is entitled to receive it, and upon the production of the securities (if ny) exhibited on the proof of the debt, make a new draft [Here follows the form of draft, which creditors on applying for their dividends may get at every official assignee's office in London.] And which draft shall be left with one of the commissioners, who will compare it with the list of cancelled drafts filed with the proceedings; and, if correct, make an order upon the draft, directing the Accountant in Bankruptcy to sign the same, which the said Accountant will afterwards return to the official assignee of that estate; and when so signed and countersigned by the official assignee, may then be issued to the creditor, or to some party duly authorized by him on signing a receipt for the dividend.

(Continued from p. 298.)

CAP. LVII.

An Act to continue until the 31st day of July, 1847, and to the End of the then next Session of Parliament, the Poor Law Commission; and for the further Amendment of the Laws relating to the Poor in England. [30th July, 1842.] Whereas by an act passed in the 5 Will. 4, [c. 76], intituled "An Act for the Amendment and better Administration of the Laws relating to the Poor in England and Wales," provision was made for the appointment of poor-law commissioners, assistant commissioners, secretaries, and other officers, and for their continuance in office until the end of the session of parliament held next after the 14th August, 1839, and by other acts passed respectively in the 3, 4, & 5 Vict. provision was made for their further continuance in office until 31st July, 1812, and it is expedient to extend such provisions; be it therefore enacted &c., That every poor-law commissioner appointed by his late Majesty, or appointed or to be appointed by her Majesty the Queen, her heirs and successors, and every assistant commissioner, secretary, and other officer and person duly appointed by the poor law commissioners, shall be empowered (unless he shall previously resign or be removed) to hold his office, and exercise the powers thereof, until the 31st July, 1847, and thenceforth until the end of the then next session of parliament; and until the expiration of the said period it shall be lawful for her Majesty, her heirs and successors, from time to time, at pleasure, to remove any of the said commissioners for the time being, and upon every or any vacancy in the number of commissioners, either by removal or by death or otherwise, to appoint by warrant under the royal sign manual some other fit person to the said office, and until such appointment it shall be lawful for the surviving or continuing commissioner or commissioners to act as if no such vacancy had occurred.

2. And whereas by the said first-recited act it is provided, that it shall not be lawful for the poor-law commissioners to appoint more than nine assistant commissioners to act at any one time, unless the Lord High Treasurer, or the Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury, for the time being, or any three or more of them, shall consent to the appointment of a greater number; be it enacted and provided, That after the 31st day of December in the year 1842 it shall not be lawful in any case for the poor-law commissioners to appoint or continue in office more than nine assistant commissioners to act in England and Wales: Provided always, that after the passing of this act, whenever it may seem fitting to the said commissioners, or whenever they may be thereunto required by her Majesty's principal Secretary of State for the Home Department, the said commissioners, with the consent of the Lord High Treasurer or the Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury for the time being, or any three of them, shall appoint some person, being a doctor in medicine, a barrister at law, a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of London or Dublin, an architect or surveyor, and not being one of the assistant commissioners as aforesaid, or some two or more of such persons, to act either in England or Ireland as an assistant commissioner or assistant commissioners, for the purpose of conducting any special inquiry, for a period not exceeding thirty days; and the said commissioners shall delegate to every person so appointed for the purpose of conducting such inquiry all such of the powers of the said commissioners as they may deem necessary or expedient, for summoning witnesses and conducting such inquiry; and every such appointment shall be subject to the approval of one of her Majesty's principal Secretaries of State; and every person so appointed as aforesaid to conduct any special inquiry shall, before he enter on the execution of his duties, take the following oath before one of the judges of her Majesty's Court of Queen's Bench or Common Pleas, or one of the barons of the Exchequer in England or Ireland, as the case may be:

'I, A. B. do swear, that I will faithfully and honestly, according to the best of my skill and judgment, inquire into 'all matters and things which I may be lawfully directed to ' examine into, and will truly and impartially report thereon.' And it shall not be necessary to notify the appointment of any such person, or the taking of the oath aforesaid, otherwise

than by publishing a notification of the same in the London Gazette, and by signifying the same, under the seal of the said commissioners, to the clerk of the peace of the county or coun. ties within which the inquiry in question is to be made: Próvided always, that if any person be charged with any miscon duct in any matter relating to the administration of the laws for the relief of the poor, and if any such special inquiry as aforesaid be directed to be made into such charge, the person bringing such charge shall be entitled to make the same at such inquiry by his counsel or attorney, and the person charged with such misconduct shall be entitled to make his defence at such inquiry by his counsel or attorney; but nothing herein con tained shall release any person charged with any misconduct, or bringing any charge of misconduct, from the liability to be himself examined at any such inquiry in respect of the matter of such charge, in the same manner and subject to the same penalties as under the said firstly-recited act.

3. That whenever any general rule of the said commission. ers shall be in force, it shall not be lawful for the said commis. sioners to issue any particular rule, order, or regulation, ad dressed to any single parish or union, by which such general rule or any part thereof would be rescinded or suspended, unless one of her Majesty's principal Secretaries of State have first signified to the said commissioners his approval of such particular rule in writing.

4. That every order of the said commissioners suspending or dismissing any paid officer from the exercise of his office, in which the said commissioners shall declare that the urgency of the case requires that such order should take effect within the period of fourteen days, shall come into force at such time as the said commissioners shall in such order direct, notwith. standing that fourteen days shall not have expired since a writ ten or printed copy of the same shall have been sent by the said commissioners, as required by the first-recited act.

5. That it shall be lawful for the guardians of any parish of union, subject always to the powers of the poor-law commissioners, to prescribe a task of work to be done by any person relieved in any workhouse, in return for the food and lodging afforded to such person; but it shall not be lawful to detain any person against his will for the performance of such task of work for any time exceeding four hours from the hour of breakfast in the morning succeeding the admission of such person into the workhouse; and if any such person, while in such workhouse, refuse or neglect to perform such task of work suited to his age, strength, and capacity, or wilfully destroy or injure his own clothes, or damage any of the property of the board of guardians, he shall be deemed an idle and disorderly person within the meaning of an act passed in the 5 Geo. 4, [c. 83, s. 3], intituled "An Act for the Punishment of idle and disorderly Persons, and Rogues and Vagabonds, in that Part of Great Britain called England."
