Decisions in Bankraptcy—Uslawfal Profer- ences. Yesterday Judge Blatchford rendered his decision im the case of John Sedgwick, assignee, vs. James Millward, The decision is in the following lan- gnage:— There can be no doubt that the defendant took, by bis executions, an unlawful preference. The debtors were insolvent, and procured and suffered their property to be taken om the executions, with intent to give a preference to the defendant asa ¢reditor, and he had reasonable cause to believe that the debtors were insolvent, and that a fraud in of New York as having been made under the order Of this court, and the proceeds of such sale as the measure of the value of such property for the pur- 7) of the controversy in this suit. The defendant entitled to be aliowed credit for the $305 17 paid for the expenses of sale and lor tne $1,440 41 paid over to the assignee, but not tor the $1,617 20 paid to the Rot appear what such expenses were and how the net proceeds ($63 81) were arrived at, nor how much it brought on the sale, the estimate of value put upon it in the evidence. What it brought at the sale may, tf the condition of the property at the time ana the circumstances of the sale be shown, be as good evidence of value as such estimate is, There must be an accounting for such value before @ Master, unicss the parties can ree upon it, The defendant cannot be allowed credit for the amount ol the fecaof the Sberif of Kings county on the execution to him.

Inthe case of John Sedgwick, Spectal Receiver, vs, John O, Preble, et a’., his Honor has also ren- dered the following decision:— ‘This suit is brought to sompey the application to the payment of the debt of James Darkman, & bankrupt, of the proceeds of certain leasehold pro- erty situated in Forty-second street, New York. ‘ne property was settled by Sparkman upon his wife by a voluntary settlement made solely in con- sideration of the marriage relation, The premises were leased to Sparkwau In March, 1863, By an as- signment dated November 30, 1865, acknowledged December cy 1866, Sparkman assigned the lease to James K. Place. By on assignment dated December 1, 1855, acknowled, and recorded December 9, 18 Place assigned the Jease to Mrs. Sparkman. These assignments and the settlement hereby made are subject to ve im- peached by the plaintiff? upon the ground that they Were made with intent to hinder, delay and defraud the creditors of Sparkman. In the ‘case of Sedg- wick vs. Place 1 have fully considered the legal principles which must govern the decision In this case. On the facts, without going intoa detailed discussion of them, it 1s shown by the evidence that Sparkman was amply solvent when he made the wettlement; that he was lett after he had made at with abandant means to pay all his debts then ex- | 1sting; that it was reasonable in amount, and that he had no intent or purpose of embarking in any hazardous business, or hindering, delaying or de- frauding any existing or future creditors. This 1s true, even though the settlement be regarded as having tocluded in contemplation the $40,000 of United States securities, as well a3 the leasehold property and the furniture in the houses on the pre- Mises and the horses and carriages in tke stables, The bill must be dismissed, with costs, Fi ‘ete Bangs for plaintiff; Mr. Buckley for defen- jant, 1d December 5, 1865, UNITED STATES COMMISSIO VERS’ COURT.
