INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT,
(WEDNESDAY.)

John Thomson, of Great George-street, Bermond-
sey, land-waiter at the Custom-house, was brought
up from llorsemonger-lane gaol, to be discharged.
The insolvent is an old man, in a very infirm state
of health.

Mr. HEATH opposed the discharge on behalf of
Mr. Joseph Harvey, one of the creditors. •
Mr. Joseph Harvey had advanced to the debtor
1201. at one time, for the express purpose of en-
abling him to pay off his• debts, which the debtor
informed him did not exceed that sum. To secure
this he took a Bond and Warrant of Attorney upon
the household•goods of the prisoner.. These were
afterwards taken in execution by another creditor,
and sold for 251. some odd, shillings: What he
wished to know was, how the insolvent had dis-
posed of the.money which he had lent him ?
The COURT thought that Mr. Harvey was en-
titled to this.

Mr. COOKE, on behalf of the insolvent, suggested
that considering the ill state of health of the insol-
vent, the best mode of proceeding for all parties
would be to assign a portion of the salary to the
creditors, and allow the insolvent to be-discharged.
It was then agreed that the insolvent should be
discharged, on assigning 70/. of his salary for behoof
of his creditors—Mr. Harvey to be the assignee.
Mesheck Ferris, a butcher and cattle-dealer, May
Fair-green, Surrey, was brought up to be discharged,
from Horse►nonger-lane.
Mr. HEATH opposed the discharge of the insol-
vent on the part of two creditors, farmers, of the
names of Crump and Parnell, who had sold the in-
solvent some cattle, for which they h►►.d not been
paid. The. point of the objection was, that the in-
solvent had not in his shedule accounted for the
produce of various sales made of these cattle, and
other things.

The COURT was clearly of opinion that the pro-
:lnce of the sales ought to, be accounted for, before
insolvent could be entitled to his discharge, and
;he, case was adjourned generally ; in order to give
time to the insolvent to amend his schedule.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHAN —GE S . 25.
The imports of Wheat siabe last Tuesday.ePthave been
light. The market has been barely supplied
with New
Oats, and of other Grain the arrivals continue extremely
small. At this day's market there appeared more firmneit
in holders of New Wheat, and the minus bought to '1
moderate extent, at about the prices of this day se'nnight;
in Old the transactions were very limited. Oats, of all
qualities, have obtained a free sale~j at as high rates, but
there are scarcely any prime (7ld now in the market.
Grinding Barley moves slowly, but at full prices. Some
parcels of Egyptian Beans were sold during the week at
a small reduction, but holders are again firm, and the
stocks of that article are fast decreasing.
