IN THE LOBBY.
▼ [from our parliamentary correspondent.] Wellington, To-day.

On the proposal being discussed for classifying certificates of discharge, Mr Barron pointed out that it contained the germs of what might some day become a great mark of social distinction, for which the highest in the land would be found contending, and the truly successful and most envied man would be he who had attained to the great pre-eminence of being the holder of a patent of nobility from the Court of Bankruptcy, giving him the right to claim the title of a firstclass bankrupt.
