INSOLVENTC6URT,TH.URSDAY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS.)
IN THE MATTER OF JOHN COLLINGS.
The insolvent, who had been manager of the Garrick
Theatre, and lately performing at the Theatre Royal,
Dublin, applied to be discharged under the Act. He
stated that he had been engaged with Mr. Hammond, at
the Theatre-Royal, Drury-lane ; but when that gentle-
man's bankruptcy took place., his engagement termi-
nated, and he was consequently a looser by it to some
extent. His brother-in-law, Mr. Elkin, having advanced
him money, be gave him as security an assignment
of certain reversionary interests, of which he was pos-
sessed, and also a the arical wardrobe.
Mr. V. ELKIN said the insolvent became the manager
of the Garrick theatre, and witness acted as Treasurer.
He had lent the insolvent about 600/, for which he re-
ceived the assignment of the reversionary interest; and
subsequently the salaries of the 'performers at the Gar-
rick Theatre being considerably in arrear, they refused
to perform. The house was quite full at the time, it being
about seven o'clock in the evening, and he knowing the
consequences which would result, advanced the money,
when the performance was proceeded with. It was in
security for the last loan that Mr. Collings handed over
the wardrobe to him.
The LEARNED COMMISSIONER said he could see
nothing in the case that could in the slightest degree
lead to an inference of fraud or collusion, and he there-
fore thought the insolvent entitled to his discharge.
IN RE CHARLES NIERS.
The insolvent, who likewise belonged to the theatri-
cal profession, appeared on his petition to be discharged.
He said rather feelingly that there were other and
younger aspirants rising in the profession, and that all
his struggles had at length terminated in the present
petition.
The LEARNED COMMISSIONER ordered him to be dis-
charged forthwith.

THE CASE OF TEE CLoTHES DEALERS IN CUTLER-
STREET.—Yesterday the cases relating to the transaction
of the old clothes business in Cutler-street, by the Jews,
came on for adjudication. It will be recollected that the
question had been postponed at the request of Mr. Wire,
who appeared as the advocate of the old clothes dealers,
in order that he might present a petition, signed by the
inhabitants, to the Commissioners of Sewers, by whose
directions two dealers were taken into custody on the
26th of August, under an Act passed in the 4th year of
the reign of George the Fourth, for having caused ob-
structions and prevented the tree passage of the footway
of that street.
Levy and Josephs, the defendants, appeared to answer
the charge. Mr. Tyrrell, the Solicitor for the Commis-
sioners, appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Wire attended
for the defendants, and pleaded very energetically for
them through the whole of the details. The cases came
on separately.
IlichardNl'raineh stated that he appeared against Levy
for having obstructed the public highway by selling-
clothes on the day stated above in Cutler-street. Witness
