INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

Charles Cartwright, baker, of Burley Hill, was
opposed by Mr. COOK, on behalf of Messrs. Currie
and son, millers, near Norwich, who had supplied
him with flour to the amount of 2001. The ground
of opposition was, that the insolvent had refused to
give up his lease, value 3001., for the benefit of his
creditors.

Mr. BARRY, for the insolvent, proved, by cross-
examination, that he had paid several hundred pounds
to the opposing creditors, for deliveries of flour after
this debt was contracted, and also that one of the
firm had refused to take the lease as a security.
John Cox, baker, of Charlotte-street, Blackfriars-
road, proved having advanced 811. on the lease,
for which he received no interest, but merely ad-
vanced it as a friend, to prevent the insolvent being
turned out of his house, as he had a family of eight
children. The lease had twenty-one years to run,
and the witness had now no inclination to give it
up on receiving his 811. It was all he had as se-
curity for the money, which he swore solemnly was
his own (and not the insolvent's) when he lent it.
The COURT ordered the insolvent to be dis-
charged forthwith.

Mr. READER, the barrister, has retired from
the Midland Circuit, after a very extensive practice for
wady forty years.

Baron M'CLELLAND is at present so seri-
ously ill as to be unable to go any farther on Circuit. His
Lordship presided in Dundalk on Thursday, during some
Nisi Fritts trials ; at the conclusion of which he pro-
ceeded to his residence at Ravensdale, where he has ever
since remained. The health of his Lordship has been
rapidly declining for some time past. We have not heard
who is to succeed him on the North East Circuit.—Ntlvry
Telegraph.

THE HARVEST.—The harvest has com-
menced in this neighbourhood, in a partial degree; and,
notwithstanding the late prevalence of heavy rain, the
crops generally present an appearance of the greatest pro-
mise. The wheat cwp is remarkably abundant ; and,
although it is, in some instances, partially lodged, no con-
siderable damage is anticipated.—,Doncaster Gazette, 1
