MANN 17. RICKETTS,

This case occupied his Lordship the whole morning. The
question in this case was of no public importance, as it re-
lated to the practice of the Court.

EXCHEQUER -(THIS DAY.)
The Lord Chief Baron took common jury cases during the
day, but the proceedings were entirely devoid of public in-
terest.

INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY

(Before the CHIEF COMMISSIONER.)
IN RE BENJAMLN BURROWS.

The petition of this insolvent, who had carried on an ex-
tensive business as a carcase butcher in Courtney-terrace, was
opposed by Mr. Dowse, on behalf of Mr. John Lyon, a slop
salesman.
The grounds of opposition were that the insolvent had
procured from the opposing creditor, upwards of a hundred
head of cattle, for payment of which he was compelled to
sue him, when he defended the action, whereby Mr. Lyon
was sent unnecessarily to law, incurring expenses exceed-
ing 501.
Mr. Nicuot,L, on behalf of the insolvent, contended that
he was justified in the course he had adopted, inasmuch as
the jury ultimately returned a verdict for less than the sum
for which Mr. Lyon went originally.
The COURT held that the opposition upon this ground
could not be sustained, after the verdict of the jury, and or-
dered the insolvent to be discharged.

IN RE JOHN WRIGHT.
In this case, which had been adjourned previously, in
order that the insolvent might file a new balance-sheet, and
render further information respecting the disposal of certain
property of which he was possessed previous to his insol-
vency, the Court ordered the case to stand further adjourned
to next Saturday.

IN R 3 SAMUEL CHANDLER.
The insolvent had been the proprietor of the Commercial-
inn, at Barnet, called the Old— Salisbury Arms. Several
creditors had entered an opposition to the petition, but none
appeared in Court when called upon.
The LearnedCmgr COMMISSIONER examined the insolvent
at great length, when it appeared that he had kept livery-
stables, although he had not described himself as of that
occupation in his schedule. It also appeared that he had
received certain moneys from Mr. Riley, the clerk to the
board of guardians, for which he had not satisfactorily
accounted in his balance.—The case was adjourned to
compel the attendance of Mr. Riley.
The following petitions were heard during the morning,
and the applicants ordered to be discharged forthwith :
Thomas John Alger, George Noble, Thomas Thorpe, Thomas
Holton, Henry West, John Stent, and James James
Thomas Beard.
