FOR THE SUN.

Mr. Enieroß,..—ln pursuance of my, promise, I
submit the following instances of misconduct of
the practising Agents in the Insolvent Court to
the public, and abuses'are daily exemplified which
imperatively call for legislative interference, as
the mischiefs are becoming too extensive for re•
tribution.

Amongst other evils, prisoners for debt, who are.
studious to obviate the rights of Creditors, and in-
duce a supposition that they are destitute of
means to pay, procure an Agent of the Insol-
vent Court, who willingly lends himself to the
fraudulent views of the Debtor to swear to a debt
which never existed, which will hold the alledg-
ed De!►tor in custody as effectually as if he was
truly and absolutely indebted at the snit of a bona
fide creditor ; this is what Debtors call a friendly
detainer, which is resotted to by the Agent,.
with an intention to frustrate legal claims, and to
deceive and impose upon the generous part of
mankind, and in some cases to evade responsibili-
ty for a gross violation of the law. This highly
reprehensible practice is not founded in any case
upon a principle of justice, and in effect is most
' injurious to the public. In contemplation of the
present ACt, these friendly detainers are common-
ly resorted to by the Agents, and enable Debtors
to riot in the spoils of villainy, in defiance of
right and equity, wasting the property of their
Creditors and imposing on the credulity of man-
kind. These practices require instant correction.
A case lately occurred at the Insolvent Debtors'
Court, where a Debtor had colluded with one of
the Agents to arrest him for the purpose of taking
the benefit of the Act, and the Agent accordingly
proceeded under a fictitious claim, and lodged the
Debtor in the Fleet Prison. The Debtor was
afterwards brought op to be discharged, but re-
manded for gross fraud, it appearihg that the
wicked Agent had arrested the Debtor upon a fic-
titious debt. After the Debtor, however, had
been remanded, the Agent wrote the discharge of
the Debtor, and lie was released, to the great in-
jury of his real Creditors. If the Debtor had em-
ployed an Attorney conversant with his affairs,
he might probably have benefited by such advice ;
and it the Attorney had recommended collusive
and fraudulent conduct, he might have imn►e-
diately been called upon to answer for his con-
duct in the Court whereof he is admitted an At-
torney. But these infamous Agents are not
amenable to any Tribunal, nor under the influence
or fear of moral obligation, and consequently the
community n►ust experience much injury from this
self-created agency; and such is their ascendancy,
that they collude with the Debtors in preparing
garbled schedules, and are a great inducement to
fraud and robbery by the Debtor, to the preju-
dice of just and honest tradesmen.
Such a system of FRAUD and depredation thus
carried on, must have very considerable influence
on the conduct of Debtors who wish to practice
evasions on their Creditors, and no good remedy
will result from means to defeat their pernicious
designs, unless by regulations to exclude them al-
together. Daily experience, and public state-
ments, fully establish the propriety of such an ex-
clusion. It is almost an uniform practice with
these men to abandon their Debtor, aud'uotally
disregard the interest of his Creditors from the
moment his release is obtained, so that, in point
of fact, whatever subsequent proceedings may be
requisite for the furtherance of the Act, and the
protection of mutual rights, such proceedings
must fall into the hands of persons who have not
been heretofore advised with. An instance of
this sort occurred at the sittings of the last Cotirt.
which I shall adduce in direct evidence of what I
have stated :—J. M. was remanded by the Court,
on account of his having an 'attachment against
him for disobedience of an order of a Court
of Equity, in not transferring certain Stock
standing in his own name and that of another.—
The Learned Counsel suggested the mode of re-
lief, by application to such superior Court. The
prisoner has made application to professional
practitioners, who disapprove being concerned for
hint on account of his previously employing a
person out of the profession ; and such person
being unqualified for, and unacquainted with, the
practice of proceedings in such superior Court,
the prisoner may now lament in vain that he did
not confide himself and his affairs to a regular
practitioner in the first instance.
In addition to these cases, I submit my further
observations on the impolicy of the present Act,
and its conseyiences on the community. Acts of
Insolvency have, in numberless instances, hitherto
induced the contemplation of fraud and robbery,
and annihilated the just claims of Creditors. Many
persons habituated to indolence, vice, and knavery,
have contracted- debts to a considerable amount, and
surrendered themselves to prison with the property
in their possession, and after a series of some months
passed dissolute idleness and low debauchery,
they have been liberated by the Insolvent Act, and
have recommenced their career of plunder and
fraud, without the smallest recompence or indem-
uity to the Creditor.
The expectation of such Acts give birth to
artful invention, is the parent of villainy, and the
most abandoned persons are let loose on Society
to repeat their depredations without fear of pu-
nishment. Those partial remedies have so often
been the cause of injurious consequences, that
they are productive of prejudice and detriment to
trade and credit. If every Debtor was to give up
his property in possession and expectancy to
satisfy his Creditors, a very large capital would be
gained to the community, which is now liable to
be absorbed in the sinks of corruption and turpi-
tude. Such a measure would relieve public
bounty, encourage commercial enterprise, increase
the public revenue, and afford the best protection
to the plundered and credulous tradesmen.
There are numerous stratagems resorted to under
the present Act, by which the fraudulent Debtor
may contrive to evade the claim of any one credi-
tor by whom he is held its custody ; or by collu-
sion with an Agent, may procure his discharge
from prison, and rob all his bona fide creditors by
removing off his ill-acquired property, or by in-
vesting it in the purchase of funds in the name of
a fictitious proprietor.
One of the most prominent evils under the pre-

sent Act, therefore, is the optional impiisonmenc
ot the debtor in prejudice o i iie g, 'lei cii ut
his creditors, and in opposition to the end for
which such imprisonment was originally
rized by law ; it is an abuse which has long beefi
tolerated in practice, though it has no foundation
iu principle.

Tt►e first object of imprisonment for debt being.
to enforce the discharge of obligations and d 6.
mends by means within the power of the debtors;
he may legally and reasonably be coerced in his
liberty, until he shall restore those means.
Amongst the east horde of miscreants retained
by rapacious and low Agents of the Insolvent
Court, wretches can at all times be hired to sweat•
to an►y facts which may promote the base intention
of their employers, whether directed to the arrest
of a❑ unfortunate man, or to protect the frautlti-
lent ; thus the unprincipled debtor, with the co-
operation of a friendly and collusive plaintiff, and
the interested advice of an Agent, tinder the Act,
secures himself by hired bail, which he purchases
with a part of the creditor's property, and defies
the consequences of legal proceedings.
The bona fide creditor is harassed by the inter-
minable proceedings and vexations, and after com-
bating manoeuvres of his ►►nprincipled foe, aided
by Agents and Associates of complete experience
in the field of legal art and chicanery, finds that
the prisoner can still retain the basely acquired
property in licentious indulgence and profligate
expenditure, uncontrouled by Law or Equity.
The honest tradesman, who has imprudently
accredited an imposing adventurer, under the
specious semblance of character, vainly eudea.
yours to recover his loss ; and, in addition to his
disappointment, is moitified in finding that law
expences have accompanied his fruitless pursuits.
It is evident, therefore, from the foregoing re-
marks,that according to the provisions of the pre-
sent Act, the most unprincipled characters in So-
ciety may, by virtue of their exparte oath, baffle
the endeavours, and defeat the hopes of lawful
creditors.

Other instances offer themselves daily from the
different prisons, in which depredations are com-
mitted by the Agents to the real annoyance of
creditors. I need not apprise the Poi)lie that a
professional man in any of the superior Courts
dare not at his peril so behave ; but whilst these
Agents are permitted to proceed without the re-
sponsibility that attaches to the profession, the
mischiefs must be inevitable and alarming, and
loudly call for redress and public protection. At
the best these men can be considered as hangers
on ; and there is no true Amicus Curia but must
discountenance their irregular, surreptitious, and
unprincipled transactions ; few of them have oc-
casion for countenance, as their own unblushing
effrontery pronounces them attendant or collea-
gues with the brass foundry of impertinence.
I feel I am trespassing on the valuable columns
of your Paper, and shall, therefore, defer my sug-
gestions as to the extension of remedies in pre-
vention of abuses, intending them as a subject of
a future letter, and I now conclude with the fol-
lowing quotation in point :

" That an individual should be refused the means of coin-
pelliuk the payment of a debt justly due to him, would be a
reproach to the judicial polity of any Country."—Lords' Coin•
minces Report on Imprisonment for Civil Debt.
%Vine Otiice-court, Oct. 1818. SCRUTATOR.

P. S. A reply to the questions of your modest
Correspondent " Indoctus," is dne to him as a
small tribute of approbation, and to his motives and
zeal in the cause of honesty and misfortune ; and
I shall not long remain itt arrear to him—con-
gratulating yourself and the Public in having so
able a successor to the path lately trodden by
your Correspondent, " Au Old Barrister."

The consumption of sheep and lambs in Lon-
don, during the bist twelve months, amounted its
number to one million, sixty-two thousand, seven
hundred. The number of horned cattle slaugh-
tered, was one bundled and sixty-four thousand;
and by the Inspector's return, it appears that the
number of horse-hides produced, at Leadenhall-
market, amounted to twelve thousand nine hun-
dred.

Yesterday an inquest was taken on the body of,
Mrs. Ann Rowder, of No. 4, Fartn-street, aged
64 years. On Wednesday the son-in-law of the
deceased was arrested for 151., and taken to a
Lock-up House. The deceased, her daughter, and
six children under nine years of age, were &pen-
dent upon him for support. Upon being acquainted
with the circumstances, the shock was too great,
nature sunk beneath the blow, and she instantly
expired. Verdict—" Died by the Visitation of
God."

An outrage of a singular nature took place last
week at Shenley Fair, a place three miles beyond
Fenny-Stratford. One Sibthorpe, a farmer, be-
ing in a state of intoxication, proposed a game at
pitch and toss with Cook, the hostler of the inn ;
the conditions to be, that the winner should cut
the other's. throat ; chance deciding in fa-
vour of Sibthot pe, he forthwith-tripped ttp the
hostler's heels, and with a knife cut part of the
skin from his throat, which bled profusely for a
length of time, and reduced the man to a very
weak state. Fortunately no very serious conse-
quences are likely to ensue.
Muanaa.—On Saturday se'nnight, a man of the
name nt Kennedy, designing hituselt a
basket maker from Lochmaben, was apprehended ;t t
Cutunock. on a charge of murder. It appears
that, some time ago, he had a scuffle with a mail
of the name of William Irvine, in a house near
Selkirk, ain't that Irvine died in a few days after-
wards, in consequence of the bruises he received
in the scuffle. Kennedy, after being examined,
and the declarations taken of two hawkers from
Cumberland, who were aware of the circumstance,
has been imprisoned in Ayr jail.
At the General Quarter-session for the City of
Bath, held on Monday last, Marquis Camden at-
tended as Recorder, and witnessed adn.inistering
the oaths of allegiance to the Mayor and Justice.
At this Session Aaron Worcester, servant to Lady
Staines, widow of Alderman Sir Wm. Staines,
of London, and now resident in this city, was
convicted of assaulting an elderly female, a fellow
servant, and sentenced to one mouth's imprison-
ment. Her Ladyship in person pleaded most
powerfully for the defendant ; and after sen-
tence was pronounced, appealed, hut ineffectually,
to the Beneli for mitigation of punishment.

FRANKFORT, OCT. 15 —The fittest accounts

from Bruchsal to visit first the chateau La Fa-

will take place atter this visit. Accounts front
Manheim, of the 10th, say, " As soon as orders
were given to call in time military, 50 caissons and
baggage waggons were sent from here to Gotre-
sail near Carlsruhe, which was considered as
measure of precaution.
'' The absent military are now all arrived, and
the barracks not being reomy enough to receive
them all, from 12 to 15,000 men are quartered on
It was imagined, at first, that
the troops are called together because the Grand
Duke's disorder took a more serious turn ; but it
is now supposed to have been done merely to give
snore weight to his declared resolution, not to cede
On inch of ground in the Palatinate of the Rhine.
Jr is, however, not true that the Landwehr has
been called together, as has been said in Foreign
YournalA. 'rhe Grand Duke's disorder is no
worse, but as his Royal Highness suffers by water
the chest, there is little hope of his recovery."

We learn from the same account, that a report
fs current in Baden, 'hat one of the great Powers
connected with the Grand Doke's family by the
ties of blood, has guaranteed the succession of the
Grand D►►chy of Baden, without any cession of
territory, to the ,on of the Ex-Kiug of Sweden,
now Count of Gottorp. This report, however,.
s not implicitly credited.

DREADFUL SUICIDE..-- Yesterday morning s.
Middle•aged man, whose appearance bespoke the
character of a reduced tradesman, was '
Hyde-patk, with his throat cut in a must fright-
ful manner ; the blood flowed in a stream from
the wound ; there appeared little signs of remain-
ing lite, and he was carried by some passengers

Hospital, where he was recognized to he a per-
Sou of the name of Jatames Guy, who resided at 12,
Carrington-street, May-fair, and was formerly in
i'zood circumstances. A.short tine ago he lost his
svite, and was left with several small children,with-
out suflici:..nt means of support., which has lately re-.
diced him to a state of the most miserable des-
pondency. Having expended all his money. and
drained every resource, he resolved to commit the
clime of suicide, and leave those-troubles his mind
WAS incapable of bearing. Yesterday morning,
with the last twopence in the world, he purchased
one pennyworth of milk and a pennyworth of
bread, and having divided it amongst' his children,
be kissed them, and in his mind pacing taken
last living leave, he hastened to the Palk, and with
a razor he committed the above act. He lies now
without the least chance of recovery in the
o spit al.

Dight, or early on Thursday morning, time premises
of Air. ARNOLD, situate at time back of the F4ttglish
Opera-house, Strand, were entered, and between
S and 400 weight of lead was stripped oil the
roof, and stolen therefrom, which the thieves con-
trived to carry away unperceived, supposed in a
backney-coach. A similar attempt took place
some time since, but the watchman giving the
alarm, they escaped, leaving their plunder behind.
Three new caravans, on an entire new con-
struction, passed along time Strand yesterday,
with the following inscribed on the footboard—
" Association for the Relief of the Manufacturing
and Labouring Poor." Time inscription excited
much curiosity among the spectators."

Where an assemblage of talent and experience
is conteotrated in one line of practice, a success
must attend their application, not to be found
elsewhere. This has been evinced in the Esta-
blishment of the Medical Board at Charlotte-
I louse, BiacktriarS-road, and" at Woodstock-
nouse, Woodstock-street, Oxford-street, where
cures are every day performed in cases which
have baffled the skill of eminent professors, and
excited their astonishment.
The Medical Board have particularly attended
to those conseqiient es of a certain disease, which
entails the most distressing debilities, and un-
hinges the constitution of both sexes. They also
remove the effects of rt,ose symptoms arising, from
juvenile indiscretion, fro,m irregular living, and
from a long residence •in warm climates—of this
description they beg patticolarly to notice obsti-
nate eruptions in the skin, sore throat, pains in
the head and limbs, frequently mistaken for rheu-
matism, strictures, fistulas, scrophula, &c.
