tie presented .the documents to them and pointed out•that
the debt was included in the schedule, but the Com-
u.iesionera said that they had nothing to do with the
schedules of the Insolvent Debtors' Court, and should
not attend to them. An execution was subsequently
issued out against Woodward, who was sent to prison,
for 40 days, and when he was discharged, instead of re-
ceiving the usual allowance of 2d. per day, as the prison
allowance, he received only ld. per day. He swore that
he verily believed the slid Mr. Farren, although he did
Sot sit as Commissioner on that day, yet that he used an
improper influence over Lis brother Commissioner, who,
the complainant believes, was actuated by the improper
motive he had alluded to.
Lord TENTERDEN considered that it was a mistake of
the la's', and no criminal information could issue for a
mistake, unless a corrupt motive appeared by circum-
stances to have influenced the Commissioners. The com-
plainant here stated that such was his opinion, but that
Was not enough ; it must be clearly shown before an in-
formation could issue. This is not the first time the
Commissioners had refused to recognise the orders of the
Insolvent Debtors' Court ; but lie (Lord T.) did not know
why they did so, as there must be something in the Act to
warrant that refusal, which he could not find. They
were certainly bound to recognise them, and he hoped
that this public announcement would correct suck mis-
takes in future.
Mr. Justice Pam: said that he had heard of other Com-
Misaioners in the same part of the country pursuing the
same course ; but they were hound to receive this sort of
defence as much as any other.--Rule refused.

This being what is termed " the Grand Bail Day," the
Court was occupied the whole morning in bearing justifi-
eifions of bail.

Mr. Baron BOLLAND entered the Court this morning
With the other Judges, and took his scat with the usual

wn 111 r. Baton Rolland received the congratulations of
the Bench and Bar on his election.

V. m`cetor.
Mr. TAUNTON moved for a new trial in this case;
it Was an action tried at the last Gloucester Assizes,
unnre Mr. Baron Vaughtn, and was brought to re-
hse"er compensation in damages for illegal imprison-

"It appears that there is a local Act in the
Cheltenham, which authorises the taking
°' any person into custody for driving or riding a horse at
.furious rate through the streets. The plaintiff, who is
4.horse-dealrr, attended a fdr at Cheltenhatn, and (as it
Was Proved on the trial) was proceeding at rather a slow
tate up the streets, when he was seized by the defendant,
trlin conveyed him to a place of security, where he was
Let'ained. about two hours until the Magistrates assembled,

would'haie amply compensated him.
a.lre Baron VAUGHAN-It was clearly proved that the
Plaintiff Was proceeding at a slow rate when taken into cus-

IrlY after Mr. Pepys commenced his arguments, Mr.

negative.
CnIEF BARON-Then I think we can dispense with
