for quantity, there the crop is abundant, and ne-
ver known to be better fet." _ _ .

Yefterday the Recorder and Aldermen again
met at Guildhall, for the purpofe of proceeding
farther in the hearing of objeitions againft the It-
Irration of infplvent debtors who have complied
with the terms of the late Infolvent At. The dif-
charge of one prifoner was refitted on the ground
that a creditor was ready to (wear to a debt con-
traaed fince the in of March. It was allowed by
the Cotinfel that tic) detainer was.lodgcd againll
the prifoner, but he endeavoured to apologife for
this by remarking that he was not in fat worth
powder wafted The Cotinfel for the .prifoner infilt-
ed much in behalf of his client, on the (core of no
detainer being lodged ; and he facetioufly enough
remarked, that there was no proof that the credi-
tor really did confider his client as not worth pow-
der ase/ihot fince he had evinced the contrary by
employing bounfel. who had no doubt received
hisfee. After, hearing all the arguments fully, the
Court ruled that a claim might be made, and ob-
jeftions might be urged againd the difcharge of a',
prifoner without a detainer being lodged, or with-
out
having fworn to the debt previous to making
the objettions.
The Court alto ruled, that perfons in cuftodyby
the decifion of the Court of Confcience, are not en-
titled to the relief provided by the At.
