INSOLVENT COURT--(THIS DAY)

RE JOHN LIVINCsToNE.
The insolvent, in this rase, was joint patentee with John
Davis and John Gerard De Witt, in an invention for the
security of buildings from fire. He now appeared in Court on
his petition to bedischarged, which was supported bs Mr Cooke.
His petition was opposed in person, by an indvidual named
Youles who was clerk to an attorney belonging to this Court,
for a debt arising out of a bill.discounting transaction. It
appeared that the opposing creditor had discounted a 291. bill
of Exchange for the insolvent, charging a discount of Ss. 61
in the pound, and a balance remaining due, the present oppo-
sition, was entered. Two deeds of assignment of certain rights,
which the insolvent was possessed.of, under the above patent,
were executed in favour of 111 r. -Alderman Thomas Wood, and
subsequently of a gentleman named Young, which Mr. Youles
required to be produced in Court.
The Learned CHIEF Comstisslostxa said, although he was
amazed at the nature of the opposition entered against the in-
solvent, yet it would be but justice to the body of creditors that
those deeds of assignment should be produced, and he should
consequently adjourn the further hearing of the case for that
purpose.

MARLBOROUGH:STREET.
(THIS DAY.).
Thomas Wharen, aged between eight and nine years, who
has at least a dozen times been summarily convicted at this
Court of misdemeanors, with felonious intent, was again com-
mitted for two months, to Westminster, Bridewell to hard
labour, for having been found between seven and eight o'clock
last evening, secreted behind the' counter, of the shop of
No. 15, King-street, Golden-square, for an unlawful purpose, no
doubt to empty the till of whatever money it might contain at
the first opportunity. When asked if he had anything to say
in his defence, he answered with a smile, " I've nothing to
say. I have no father or mother, that you know; and 1 was
hungry ; and so I went into a baker',s shop, where there was
summat to eat, and what s the harm of that ?"
Thomas Collinson, another well-known boy-thief, was re-
manded until Saturday next, on suspicion of stealing a parcel
of loaf-sugar, about 121bs. weight, which was found in his pos-
session last night in Panton-street, Leicester-square, the pro-
perty of some person or persons unknown.

WORSHIP-STREET--(THIS DAY.)

Caroline Lewis, one of the frail, yisterhood, was charged
with having stolen a pair of shoes.at -the shop of 111 r. Walsh,
shoemaker, Brick-lane, Spitalfields.
From the evidence of the prosecutor's apprentice, a shrewd
and intelligent lad, it appeared that on the preceding evening
the prisoner called at the shop in company with another woman,
and produced an odd shoe, which she :said she wanted to
have repaired. Whilst he was loolciug at the shoe, the
prisoner took a pair of shoes from a shelf close to the
spot where she was standing, and' handed them to her
companion, but the latter appeared flurried and frightened, and
ran out of the shop, upon which the'prisoner with perfect cool-
ness, replaced the shoes on the shelf from which she had taken
them. Witness called a policeman and gave the prisoner
into custody.
In her defence, the prisoner said, that she took up the shoes
for the purpose of looking at them, and had not the remotest
intention of stealing them.—The prisoner was remanded.
