It appeared from the 'elimination of the Insol-

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.

its THE ad•rrEft OF THOMAS WHITEMAN.

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

The Chief Commissioner inquired whether Mr.
Vincett was in attendance ?
Mr. Jones said he had seen Mr. Vincett's attor-
ney yesterday, and the latter had promised that he
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.

There was no troth in the report that the buttons part of the

Several of the Jury here remarked, that it was highly
proper-that some conepeteitt person should be employed to
superintend the taking down of old buildings, to prevent tic
injudiennes proceeding of the workmen.
The witness, in enolionslive, said, that it was the bissi..
loess of the auctioneer's pollen to prevent the bootee from
