# is stated in the New York papers that the
s.o. of the Clerk in the United States District
rourt for New York, in bankruptcy cases, have
amounted to fifty thousand dollars and those of
.La Assignee to one hundred thousand dollars
This IS a specimen of that glorious Whig meas
urs the Bankrupt Act. 1t was indeed fine fun for
,be officers of the Court, but death to the credi-
tors.


Let It be borne in mind and let the Wings con-
..ntIv be told, that the Whig leaders in Congress
are solely responsible for the passage of this law,
and for all the evils which have flowed from it.
This was one of the measures determined OH at
,be Harrisburg Convention, and with majority
of 6fty in Congress- the Wings passed the law
with ease After they had passed it, in an address
~ the people of the United States, they approved
and endorsed it. and spoke of it as one of the
Whig measures of relief The democracy in
Congress opposed it at every step; and now, will
Il be believed the Wings are endeavoring to get
rid of the odium that attaches to it, But they
cannot do it. 1t Will stick to them forever.
