They fought fir about a quarter of an hour, and Horner could not come up to theseraech when time was called. The deceased of course won the battle. The ring was brokers is. After some time Horner recovered, and was ready to fight stein. The deceased said that he was willing to fight sesta.

This We'vetits a woman of respectable a ante, was opposed at the instance of Messrs. %fbi►ter mid Hardwick, linen-drapers, of Bond. street, nu the ground of baying cont►acted debts without any probable expectation of being able I. puy at the time of contracting. It appeared from the 'elimination of the Insol vent, that she had gone at one time by a different mune from BI OWII, having lived under equivocal circumstances with s gentleman, whose name it is nut necessary to mention, but she had been arrested by the name of Brown, anal by that name she had petitioned for relief. Her debt to Messrs. IVhitte► and Hartlw►c'k ninaunted to about 1501. for linen drape.), goods ; but she had previously dealt with them to the amount of 200/. which she had punetna ally pais!. At the lime of contracting the debt in question, she was ptw•essed of two air three hundred pounds. Slte had been urquainted with a person named Fletcher, an attorney of some notoriety, who soon aftectliat time rrevailed upon her to lend him money, at diff, resit times, to the amount of 2001. Not being able to get her money back, she became iusolveni, sod went ell In 51011. Mr. I.

This Inoolsent's discharge was opposed at the in stance of Nlessrs. Alderman Rotlovell and Co. on the ground of alleged fraud, in misapplying the provision made by the drawer of an accommodation' bill, of which he was the acceptor. The lesulvent deposed, that be was a clerk in the ship-letter department of the post-office, at • satiny of 801. a-year. In February last, pee sons carrying on business by the names of Vincett and Hew'dine. were creditors of Messrs. Roth. well and Co. Vincett was Insolvent's brother-in law, and Insolvent undertook to be guarantee of a bill of exchange for 1091. 7s. on his account. He saw Mr. Bothwell, jut. on the occasion. He made t.o representations to Mr. Bothwell that he was worth► hundreds of pounds. He candidly stated his circumstances to him, and tliat he was merely a 'clerk in the Pusi.office, at a salary of 80/. a year. In consequence of this arialigement, he accepted a bill of exchange for 1091. 7s. drawn by his brother-in law in favour of Messrs. Bothwell and Co. which became due on the 26th of August in the present year.. He Swore positively that he had never received any money, or bills of exeliunge, from his brother.. in-law to take up the bill when it became due. He had, previously to this transaction, received from his brother-in-law a sum of 601. fur services rendered to. him. He had never received a farthing of a sum, directly or indirectly, oo account of the bill in question. Being cautioned to be on his guard, and told that his own Itrtid.wntittg could be produced, representing the transaction in a different way, a pa per-writing was pot into his hand, and he was asked whether that was his writing. He said he would not swear that it was his hand-writing, nor would he swear Oat he did not believe it to be his wri ting. He would not swear, however, that it was not his hand-writing. Ile had seen ie many hand writings like his, thst he would not swear it was his. Being pressed by the Learned Commissioner to. consider the solemn sanction under which he was called upon to speak the truth, he at length said he believed it to be his hand-wiiting. He was then interrogated Si to the contents of the paper. It purported to he a memorandum in figures making up the sum of 1141., expressly naming the bill is question 109!. 71. with which the Insolvent up. peered to credit himself with a per contra as fol lows : —To two bills of exchange drawn by him upon his brother-in-law for 401. each ; to 32/. 131. in cad), and to 21. fur goods. Ile was urged to es• Ono this transaction, which he did as follows:•—. The two bills of exchange for 40/. each were drawn by him upon ■ud accepted by his brother-in-law, for the latter ,to iiisy for the lease of his house. The Insolvent never received any consideration for these bills, and he believed that his brother-in-law pot them into circulation fur the purpose. The et. mentioned in the memorandum was for goods , furnished by his mother-iii-law to his wife. As to , the remaining 321 he said that when he was ia confinement, his timber-in-law came to him and said. that tildes' hegsve hini a memnrandumacknow. ledging it, and the receipt of 109/. 7s. as the pro., vision tor the bill in question when it became doe., lie could not settle his affairs with Messrs. Roth: well and Co. and his other creditors. His brother. in-law wished him to sign a stamped receipt as as • acknowledgment for the money, but he did hot., He gave him the memorandum now produced, for the express purpose of shewieg it to Messrs. Both well and Co. iii older to induce them to believe that Insolvent had received the money to take up the 109/..,75. bill when it came due. But he so. lemnly deposed, that in fact he had not received the 321. mentioned in the memorandum, nor any consi deration for the two 401. bills. He had signed the paper solely for his brother-in-law's purposes, with a view of compromising with his creditors. He denied that ' "kid hi if I time Mow, hunt his brsas&lowfti,4ll:iihe up tar bill, sad he dis tinctly siki.lllo i pledged it.

He mid he had originally accepted the bill for his brother-in-law's accommodation. The Chief Commissioner inquired whether Mr. Vincett was in attendance ? Mr. Jones said he had seen Mr. Vincett's attor ney yesterday, and the l a tt er h a d p r omis e d th a t h e should be forthcoming to-day. Mr. Vincett was called, but not answering, The Chief Commissioner said he was anxious, for many reasons, that Mr. Vincett should be pro duced, in order to throw some light upon a trans action so extraordinary. He should, therefore, ad jount the cure until Monday, and suggested to both parties the propriety of subatiring Mr. Viuceit. Mr. HEATH for the Insolvent, mud Mr. D. Pot.- Lock, respectively instructed their clients accord ingly. Adjourned. IN THE MATTES OP BROOMY LZWISSON alias 'ROOKY ISAACS. Mr. ADOLPHUS opposed the discharge of this Insolvent on behalf of Mr. Ware, a haberdosher, of Skinner-street, on the ground of fraud. The Insolvent was of the Jewish persuasion. Three years since she had been ii clairged under the last Act of Parliament as to all her debts, ex cept that of Mr. Ware, which amounted to 3731. I Is. aid. which she might have compromised fur one-third the money; but, being unable to pay it, she had remained in prison ever since. The ground upon which she had been•fortrierlv opposed was, that she had purchased good* of Mr. Ware, pretend ing that she wanted to export them to Holland, for sale, whereas it turned out that she had sold them to retail haberdashers in London, below their value, shortly after they were purchased of Mr. Ware, leaving the latter in the lurch. -fur his money. This ground of opposition was now received, and the facts of the case being, conceded, the question was, whether the Court could now adjudge slily punishment after' the Insolvent had been in custody for more than. three years at the suit of Mr. Ware, the Act of Parliemesit now in force limiting the punishment to two years imprisonment iu - the worst case of this description. Mr. Commissioner ReYnoiris was of opinion That the punishment which would have been im posed under this Act had .been anticipated by the imprisonment which the losolvent had now undergone for the same cause of offence ; sod, con sequently, though the opposition was an extremely proper one, he was bound to discharge the bawl. vent.—Discharged.
