[which was repealed before it's time had nn'lf run out. by a vote 0! 99 to 13 in the House. and 17 to 12 in the Senate] In the meantime there would-be a rush upon the courts wtth business; which would so 'clttg‘thent as ‘lo arrest their ordinary func tions.’ ’ " ' ' t 'l‘hrs prophecyhns been startlingly re alized, as thousands in "HS country can bear evidence to. But to Mr. Buchanan’s opinion 'of’the Bankrupt Law for which Mr. Irvin voted. 'Alter‘ going to show that he was in favor at such a Bankrupt Law, as ‘- could be carried into execution by the Courts of the United States.’ he proceeds :—¥- " Under the present Bankrupt Law, ' the debtor must'be dischargéd. unlessa majority in number and valué of his cred itors. who have proved their debts Should We iheir wri-tendlssen! lherelo.’ Now he shauhipui a due. and many such would occur undi-r lhe preseni bill.

I ask you. sir, ,whal chancehe would have to obtain ,lhe necessary ‘prpof in a country where thousands were atthe same time applying for the benefit of the bankrupt law? The task would be hope‘ less; and consequently the attempt would be made in very few cases. Had the law required the express asSent of two-thirds, or even of- majority in number and value ol the bankrupt’s creditors. the merchant would have had one security left. The debtor must have satisfied him that he had acted honestly before he could have obtain ed his assent. Now the debtor would be discharged unless a majority expressly dis sent. The ancient rule had been reversed. and instead of an express assent being re quired to produce his discharge. there must now be an‘cxprcn dissent to prevent it.- ‘ And it the majority did dissent, whatwouldi be the consequence? Was this conclusive. i and would the debtor still remain liable P—l No. sir, no! The Philadelphia merclir antwould then ‘have to enter upon a new‘ law suit. Notwithstanding this Jexpress dissent. the question would. under the bill. be referred to ajury, and il they decided in the bankrupt’s favor. he was discharged from his debts forever. even against the dis sent of all his creditors. Truly this bill was a measure‘to ’rcllevc all debtors who might decide 'to' cut loose from their debts, tail/rout any adequate provision for the security of creditors” This picture. if regarded either as a pre diction, or as a detail of the results of ex perience, is equally correct. , How then) thousands to Pennsylvania could certify to its startling faithfulness!
