COURT OF INSOLV E N I' DEBTORS.—Sarr. IN.

• COSTAKER '1?! SUMO»
Mr. PRINCE SMITH opposed the Defendant's dii-
charge on the 34th section of the stet. 53 Geo. 3, e.
102, and upon the ground of fraud. lie said that
the present was a case of as gross fraud and great
villainy as had ever appeared before the Court. The
Plaintiff was an old lady who was possessed of some
money in the lands, and had a niece married to the
brother of the Defendant. In the year 1807 the hus-
band of her niece had gone into the army as a com-
mon soldier, and the Defendant came to her and
complained of his brother's conduct to Isis wife, and
said if his discharge cceld be obtained there was a
house in Leaelenhall-street, in the china and earthen-
ware trade, in which he might get aliving. He ac-
cordingly proposed to the old lady to purchase the
lease, fixtures, and stock for his brother, and promis-
ed to take care of the trade till the brother returned.
The defendant accordingly was entrusted with nearly
£4OO to make this purchase, and had the assignment
of the lease made out to the plaintiff, but under some
pretence he obtained it out of her p3ssession, and
pledged it with his attorney. When the brother was re-
leaSed from the army and came home, the defendant
refused to let him have the shop,although he had affixed
his brother's name to i t,and never either paid rent, in-
terest or principal to the plaintiff, who was now much
reduced, and unable to go to law for the recovery of it,
till lately, when the defendant turned round upon her
with a petition to be discharged under this Act.—
Whether be could do this,. world be the question for
the Court to determine; it being clear that all debts
contracted under any fraudulent circumstances were to
be excepted from the operation of the Statute. Be-
sides this, the plaintiff had, in April, 1807, sold out
£lOO 3 per cents..for her own use, and as the defen-
dant went to the Bank with her, she entrusted him
with the check to receive the money for her, which
he promised to do and pay her on the morrow.
Mrs. Costaker being examined, stated in substance
to the above effect, and said, that when she asked
him for the last £lOO he said what a foolish old aunt
she was—he had paid away all the money.
Mr. Serjeant PALMER—" Did you not reply, what
a knavish young nephew you are?'
The defendant denied altogether receiving the last
sum, and pretended that lie was to be a paitner, but
did not shew that he had rendered any partnership
account. He paid £2'2o for the lease, but had never
paid any rents to Mrs. Costaker.
The defendant was remanded till the 13th inst.
DUBLIN QUARTER. SESSIONS, SEPT. 44.

William Quin was indicted, with others, unknown,
fur a riot and affray, and for maliciously assaulting
Christopher Kelly with a spoke ofa wheel, and striking
him therewith, and giving him divers dangerous
wounds, with intent to kill and murder him. The
indictment concluded with a common ass*ulc.—lc ap.
peared that Kelly was not a native of Dublin ; his bu-
siness was that of a blacksmith ; he had been in Dub-
lin about two months, and was last in the employment
'of Mr. Long, coachmaker. About three weeks before
.the 15th of September, the prisoner.met Kelly, and
:asked him, " what are you doing ?" he replied,
ei I am looking for employment :" the prisoner asked
him what 4, hire did he ask ?" he replied he did not ask
any particular wages, but was told by one of the gen-
tlemen that the wages were 16s. 341. that “ there was
danger is the place, and a turn out among the men,
but if you are willing to come in for that price, you
may ;" when Kelly tuld this to the prisoner, the latter
replied, di don't go into any yard under 19s. 6d. or a
pound ;" they then walked away until they came to
Mr. Palmer's, another coachmaker.

On the 15th September Kelly was going to his work
to Mr. Long's ; there were two other men with him
in the same employment ; Kelly crossed the street to
make a short way ; a man who stood in the angle of.
a door, walked over and eve him a blow in the eye
with a stone ; Kelly tripped him up ; he was imme•
diately struck by a second man, whom he also threw
down by a trip ; then four men r.n across the street
at him ; at this time he was over the two men he had
tripped up, and had not time to turn about when he
was assaulted ; his companions ran away. The pri.
soner was the first man of the four that ran across the
street and attacked him ; and with a new spoke of a
wheel struck him on the back of the bead, when he
fell. When he was on the ground, the party rubbed
his face to the gravel, and beat him with sucks and
stones. The prisoner was found guilty.
The R ECORDICR, previous to pronouncing sentence,
observed, that if the prisoner possessed any of the
common feelings of humanity, he must perceive tt.e
wickedness of the act he had committed, from; the
situation in which he had left the unfortunate prose•
tutor. Tke Court were at a loss what punishment to
inflict for a misdemeanour accompanied with such

atrocities. There was no crime short of murder or
high treason that called fcr a higher degree of punish-
ment than that of which the prisoner had been con-
victed : yet, he trusted, that the sentence which he was
about to pronounce would have a more salutary effect,
than that which was pronounced not a fortnight ago,
fir a similar offence. If that sentence had had the de-
sired effect, the prisoner would not now be standing
at the bar of the Court, an atrocity offender against
the peace of the country. There was,however, one con-
solation, that under such circumstances of brutality,
death did not ensue; for if homicide had been the con-
sequence, no power on earth would have prevented
the prisoner from suffering an ignominious death.—
When men of the desct iptson of the prisoner enter into
those illegal combinations, they do not see the fatal
consequences likely to follow: they are as bitter ene-
mies to themselves as to the man they attack—dis-
graceful to themselves, disgraceful to their families,
and disgraceful to their country; and all this is done,
and those atrocious acts committed, to prevent an in-
nocent and unoffending man from earning an honest
livelihood : against a man guilty.of no other crime
than that of being an Englishman—against whop
there was no cause ever to harbour resentment ; but
it seemed to be the determination th such men as
the prisoner to carry their rules and regulations into
execution, with more despotic sway than is practised
in the most enflamel counties.

The prisoner was sentenced to be imprisoned for
six months on each of the indictments; and on the
indictment for the assault with intent to murder, to be
publicly whipped twice, to be fined 50 marks, and to
give security for good behaviour, himself in 41100,
i and two sureties n 450 each.

IT has been too frequently rhe sithieCt of just and
1 general reprobation, that men Jest of the elemen.s of the
medical art have offered themselves as candidates for pubte pa-
tronage la the profession of Physic. For •be pwrpose of doing jus-
tke to the result of our studies and experience, and to prevent tie
from being classed among those empiric* whose impudent pre.
tensions have, unfortunately fur society, bees too faeourably re.
ceired, we beg leave to submit to the liberal and et.liihtened, a
faithful statement of our pursuits aad acquirements.
After having received a regular medical education, as the pupils
of Messrs Grindal and Blizard, whose lectures and rracace we
carefuUy attended, as Professors and Surgeons of the London Hos-
pital, we entered ourselves as students in that justly celebrated
school for medical acquirements, the Royal Colkge of Edin•
burgh, and were instructed is the different branches of Anatomy,
Surgery, the Theory and Practice of Physic, Chemistry, Mid-
wifery, Botany, &c. kc. &c. by these eminent Profeseors, Drs.
Monro, Gregoty, Black, Hamilton, l)aucan, and Rutherford.
We trust we shall not be deemed pre.umptuors in sayhte, that
our proficiency and acquirements are mot ircotisi.lerable. Having
for a long series of years made VENEREAL COMPLAINTS,
and the various diseases of DEBILI I Y, the particular o!.ject of
our studies and practice, it will, we hope, be allowed that we have
acquired superior knowledge of their treatment and care. In
, slight and recent cases of infection, a.perfeet re-esmb.i.lassert is
completed in the short period of two days, and in tho,e ~f the
utmost inveteraes, where tither practitioners liav;! filed
cess, a proper peffieverance in our plan of treaimet.t eusurls to.
the patient a safe and radical cure.

Amidst the melancholy varhty of dir:rders which are the et:,
teas of a habit long and ntost unhappily pursued by the youth u:
both sexes, there are none more alarnung or more distressing
those drficienceles and debilities which frequently prevent or •!--
bitter the matrimonial state. Fo such persons it must b. s vs-te
soling reflection to know that they may now, by a nsw and tr . •
