COMMERCIAL RECORD
LIST OF BANKRUPTS.—The Arrangement Clauses in the present
Bankrupt Law are so extensively resorted to, that the most
important bankruptcies are not notified in the "LONDON GAZETTE."
It has been determimd, therefore, to substitute more useful
commercial information for the Lists of Bankrupts hitherto printed in
this place.
