THE UNITZEDITIES.
The insolvent, whew cue appeared in our paper of yr,-
terday, attended to receive tho Judgment of the court on the
complaint of nearly a dozen mammon at Oxford, for debts
contracted whilst he was a student at Exeter College, Ox-
ford.
. . .

His Honour thought the I resent was • very distressing
ease. It was that of a young man who had been sent to one
of the universities to have his mind improved and enfared,
with the view of grasping some of the difficulties of
life, and adopting one of the liberal professions. It was
distressing to see the fondest hopes crushed, and the
patty en applicant to this court. Creditors to the num-
ber of nine or ten bad opposed, but only one appeared
—a Mr. Randall, who kept a well-known shop at Oxford,
and it was complained that he bad contrasted debts
which be had not paid. It was right to say that there
was no complaint that any false representation bad
been made ; but, on the contrary, it was admitted that
no inquiries had been made as to his parents or
bis means of payment. Mr. Randall bad stated that
his charges were the same as those of tradesmen
at the West-End, which meant that he charged the'
highest price he could for his articles. Then, again,
there was the temptation of long. credit for five per
cent. interest. He (the Chief Commissioner) was of opinton
that persons who applied goods at Oxford or Cambridge
without making inquiries did not deserve the particular
attention of the court; they involved families and blighted
the hopes of pullets. He, however, did not consider the in.
solvent was a:medlar his conduct ; he was one of 12 chil-
dren, and sent from Australia to be educated, with an allow-
sure made, and his father had given instruction to his agents
to pay 60W. for the son's dads, but afterwards reduced the
anon to one half. lie (the Chief Commirsimer) had heard
no evidence of the withdrawal of the 3001, and he was of
opinion that somethieg should be done for the creditors.
The open pronounced a discharge, otaditional on the pay.
Inman of 2501. Into watt, allowing the remainder for the ex-
penses incurred on the part of the insalvent.

Ttia insolvent, who was opposed on the part of the Duke
of Brumwkk, and whose cam was reported in our piper of
Saturday, appeared to receive the judgment of the mart.
The learned COMMiflliolleft mid be had deferred giving
Judgment in consequence of the excitement in the court
when the ease was heard. Hs certainly considered the
amount awarded enormous, but he had nothing to
do with that. The sum of 1,5001. was certainly a
large amount. The point raised before hint was
the degree of malice in the case, bat in his
*mien there was no Wm in the ease as to malice,
Th. only •
jury held that he had. Whether the amount could
have been reduced on the ground that it was excessive,
he did not know. He should not go beyond one•half of the
period allowed by the act. His Honour remanded the in-
solvent from the 12th June, the day of the vesting order, for
twelve calendar months, at the suit of the Duke of Bruns-
wick for the damages awarded in the action for libeL
