THE START FROM DOVER TO LONDON.
After a fortnight's training, Mr. 0. Webb, the pedestrian,
started a short distance from Dover, at six o'clock on Sunday
afternoon, to go to Fleet-market, 70 miles in l 5 hours, for 200
sovereigns. The pedestrian reached the village of Bridge, 15
ratites, at half-past eight o'clock, and threw oft the greatest part
of his apparel; to avoid curiosity, he passed through Canter-
bury, the back way, and reached the village 'of Preston, 24
miles in four hours; there he refreshed himself with India fowl.
He did the next seven miles to Sittingbourne within an hour,
and he reached Chatham, 41 miles, at two o'clock in the morn-
ing, and took half an hour's rest. He started to do the remain-
ing 2V miles in six hours anti a half, and he kept on at the rate
of something less than five miles an hour, and reached Dartford,
15 miles from home, at 20 minutes past five o'clock. He
reached his destination in ten minutes within the given time,
nine o'clock. lie was accompanied by Alessrs. Hardy and
Lee, in a post-chaise, as umpires. The task is 4 miles, 5 fur-
longs, and 13 poles per hour.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT—elfin Ds:O.--
Edward Jennings came up to claim his discharge.
)lc was not opposed.—Mr. SPENCER, the Keeper
of the New Debtors' Prison, said that the insolvent
had been for a length of time in custody at the
suit of one creditor, who had sent him his dis-
xliarge immediately on the eve of his application
to the Court for relief. The insolvent still re-
.unained his prisoner, as the plaintiff had not paid
the gate fees.--Mr. Commissioner Bow EN said
that it was doubtless a fraudulent discharge, and
done with a view to harass the insolvent, but, as
he still remained in custody, he was entitled to
the benefit for which he prayed, and ordered him
to be discharged forthwith.
Lord GEORGE SEYMOUR, Chairman of the
Board of Excise, London, arrived here from Ire-
land on Monday. His Lordship is busy exa-
mining the mode of conducting the Excise busi-
ness, and visiting the principal distilleries and
breweries, to see if there can be any improve-
ments mad© in the mode of surveying, and to re-
port accordingly.—(Glasgow Chronicle.)
