LAW INTELLIGENCE.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Oct. 9.
The Court was occupied during the day in bearing
applications to bail.

IN THE MATTER OF SAMUEL GARWOOD.
The insolvent, who had been in the employment of a
gentleman named Parkinson, as coachman, and was ar-
rested for the small sum of 21., applied to be released on
bail. The Learned Commissioner, in accepting bail, was
informed by one of the sureties that he came forward at
the request of thl insolvent's master, upon which he re_
marked from the schedule it appeared the debt -was in-
curred to the detaining creilitor for a public-house
score, and it did certainly strike him rather odd that
the insolvent's master should int:srest himself co much
in getting bail, when the original debt (since raised by
law costs to 91. or 101.) was only 21. There was more in
it than he could fathom.—Bail accepted.
IN THE A.A.TTER OF JOHN MOORE.
The insolvent applied to be bailed, and called, as his
sureties, two persons, one of whom, Me Salmon, a
tanner, residing in Red Lion-street, underwent a strict
examination by the Learned Commissioner, and was
eventually refused.
Mr. Commissioner RtrN-OLDs—lfr. Salmon, have you

A persciik Wattled Namara, in whose ram fin 'omnr-

but did not appear, on arcokint bf*hith it was supposed
there was an endears* to evade the penalty, by putting
forward anethtt rason as the party who hired and paid
the t.,!,aehntiln, A policeman stated he saw seventeen
pals,c;ig•ers, three of them children, but (to the best of
Ms belief) above eight years of age.
The Solicitor said, that two children under seven
reckoned as one person only, and the penalty was 51. for
every passenger above the authorised number.
The LORD MAYOR ELECT said, that the case was a bad ,
one, and that he should inflict the penalty of N. npon
the defendant, and no doubt the gentleman who ettentded
from the Stamp-office would know hew to vt the
amount.

IWO— notorious fellows, who at present go by the
names of Shaw and Watkins, and who have been con-
victed of passing had money on former occasions, were
seen by a policeman to enter the shop of Mr. Abraham,
a tobacconist. When they came out the policeman spoke
to Mrs. Abrahams, and ascertained that they had passed
a bad half-crown, for which she had returned, in change,

upon bringing them back to the shop, Watkins snatched
the half-crown from Mrs. Abraham's hand, and swal-
lowed it. The policeman endeavoured to prevent him,
but was not successful.
Mr. Powell, the solicitor to the Mint, did not attend,
upon which the prisoner said, the solicitor knew there
was no case against. them, since no bad money was found.

law against passing bad coin, by which many infamous
fellows escaped.
The Lox) MAYOR ELECT said that he should send for
