that there had been a breach of privilege, on the ground
that a person who had attended a polies-court wan entitled
to return horns. As he had decided the matter on that
point, it was not otosseary to consider whether a bankrupt

protected. His lordship was not inclined to concur to that

ties. The discharge of the defendant was ordered filth-
