Before Mr. OWWWWWOOer Emma.
In RE STU J. A. Borates, AN NOOLTWIT.—This
imol-
vent was knighted for services rendered in Chisel in the year
1839, at which time he was muter and part owner et the
ship Cambridgeshire, which he converted into a vessel of
war, end placed at the disposal of Captain Elliott. For bin
eseduct he received the thanks of both houses of parliament,
end now claims a large sum as compensation for his losses,
bat the claim has been disallowed by the government. This
was the dsy appointed for the granting of the final order.
Bagley appeared on behalf of an opposing creditor, and
maid a medical certificate bad been handed to him to account
to the non-attendance of the insolvent, hut it am of so vague
sad unsatisfactory a character, that he must ask the court to
dismiss the petition, as the insolvent did not appear. The
burned comminioner, after looking at the certificate, said
there was no reason stated therein to excuse the insolvent's
non-appearance, and therefore ke should dismiss the petition.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. —WEDNISDAT.
Before Mr. Serjeant Adam..
TRIO 11cmumr Faviu.—Dassid Roteldffe, a soldier in the
Grenadfer Guards, was indicted for having stolen the sum of
U 1.7 e. 6d., the moneys of Harriet Grainger. —The prase-
atria, a domestic servant, deposed, that on the day named
in the indictment, she was In company with the prisoner at a
eascert given at the Marquis of Granby tavern at Knight.-
bridge. While there, they provided themselves freel with
various kinds of refreshments, and more than once she had
eassion to take out her pane, and while in the act of re-
turning It, after paying for something, the prisoner took the
parse and its contents from her. On being cross-examined,
the proaecutrix stated that she did not press for the puree to
be returned, as he promised to give it to her when they left
the place ; but this he on parting with her refused to do,
and she gave him into the custody of • police-officer.
Evidence was called to contradict this version of the
matter.—ln summing up, the learned judge mid it was ex-
Unordinary to what an extant domestic servants suffered
themselves to be duped by soldiers. They were foolish
enough to be charmed as it were by the tall and portly figure
of a floe young fallow encased in a scarlet jacket, to such an
extent that they actually placed their reputation at stake fir
the mere pleasure of waEnag arm-in-arm with him. He (the
judge) was sorry to see girls were such fools, but he supposed
it was an infatuation they could not avoid.—The jury pro-
nounced the prisoner Guilty, and the learned judge, after
briefly addressing him, sentenced him to six months' hard
labour.
