IN• HZ JOHN =LOCH.

The:insolvent's petition to be discharged was opposed
by Mr. Cooke, on the part of a wine merchant, named
Hart, for being guilty of a breach of trust, and also
for a ♦exatious defence. He was supported by Mr.
Woodruffe.

It appeared, by a very lengthened examination, that
the insolvent had been employed as an agent on commis-
sion by the opposing creditor, in which capacity he had
received sums of money, for which he had never ren-
dered an account. Mr. Hart subsequently brought an
action for the recovery of compensation on account of
this breach of trust, which the insolvent pleaded, but
afterwards withdrew this plea a few days before the trial,
whereby the costs were increased by nearly double the
debt, and the insolvent had, under the recent recon-
struction of the Insolvent Act, rendered himself amenable
to serious punishment.
Mr. Commissioner PoLLocr, in pronouncing judg-
ment, said the insolvent "Id been guilty of a gross
breach of trust, and also of a:vexatious defence. He (Mr.
Commissioner Pollock) would, however, only deal with
the latter offence, for which he would remand him for
eight at the suit of Mr. Hart.

MA RYLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.)
Jacob Tennant, a respectably dressed man,
..Arvant out of
i>lace and that he resided at 65, Edgware-road, was
charged before Mr. Rawlinson by Thomas Collins, a
young man, aged 18, with hating endeavoured to incite
him to commit an unnatural off.nce.

The evidence of the prosecutor, which was of course
unfit for publication, fully bore out the charge.
Mr. iiiiNi'LINSON said such offences as the one with
which the defendant was charged were of such frequent
occurrence, that he should not be doing his duty to the
public and to morality if he did not send him for trial.
The defendant, who was cautioned, did not deny the
charge, but simply said that he had not seen the com-
plainant until last night, whilst he (the complainant)
swore that he had seen him on Thursday night.
He was accordingly fully committed.

CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.)
A number of little boys were brought before the Ma-
gistrate, charged by an officer under the Commissioners
of Woods and Forest, with throwing stones, and so en-
dangering the lives of passengers.
These young vagabonds ensconce themselves behind
the heaps of rubbish at the British Museum, and keep up
a constant shower of stones, &c., on the passengers
travelling along the new street running into St. Gihis's.
Yesterday, when it was crowded with people returning
from Divine service, the prisoners pelted them with
stones, and had not the police interfered there is no doubt
but many unoffonding persons would hare been seriously
injured. _ _ _

-.110 prisoners were fined in penalties of fire shillings,
and sent to prison in default of payment.
