(From the Ceylon Times, October 21ad.) We are glad to notice that an important ominion in His Baccļkacy's spooch' last week. hna boca peotified by the re-publication of the Bill for the Registration of Partnerships and Powers of Attorney. Thia mesure, it may be remembered, was introduced into Council-last year by Sir Riobara Morgan, but the latences of the acason did not permit of the Bill pussing a second reiding. The present Draft is identi- cal will that of test your, and may be pronoune- ed to ba, up the whole, a very satisfactory Ordinance. Ez drawing it up, the Queen's Advocate teeme to have aimed at a middle course, and to have oven to meet the viore of the Banke and movehunts without racing too far counter to the prejudices of antive traders. Aa Sir Richard ramarked when introducing the Bill, the Ohotties on the Coust disliked giving powere, and when they gave them, they were bampered by conditions and vostrictions, the knowledge of which would. binder rather thin promote dealings with those representing them here." There can be no doubs, however, that this "hindrance"-would--

Under this section the obiol part- her in each firm will be bound to notify, within one month after the Ordinance comea-inta: force, to the Registrar of the Supreme Court, the names in full of the partners, the style of the firm, the plucys of businows of the frm and the residensee of the partners, varifying these atatements on cath. Theo cau be so doubt that this provision will exerciss u very mulutary effect upon counerte. In English houses the position of the partners, and the extent of their interests are gentrally pretty well known, and so far as they are concerned, neither to Banke nor the public will be much of a gainor, Among petty traders, however, wo are told that the ramificution of partnerships is incredible, and that frequently same half score of persona will be found to have na interest in i amail basi- - Anatomy at Owens College, has delivered au ness which ja ostensibly carried on by a single inaugural address, it which he discusses the Individual.
