INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Dicemagft 30,

Hidlion Rodney Chain6ers, Esq. was brought up for
re-hearing, he having been before the Court on the
19th instant. when his case was refrred to. Mr. Dance,

the provisional assignee.
Mr. PoLLock opposed the petitioner on behslf of Mr.
Smith and several other creditors resident in Ireland;

and Mr. Prosser, an army-clothier, at Charing-cross,
appeared ix prepria persona.
It appeared that the petitioner had formerly been a
Lieutenant in the IA Regiment of Life Guards, into
which he entered in 1809, and between that period and

the present time tie had been attached to tour Regi-
ments of Light Dragoons, in one of which he was now
on half-pay, on a stipend of 631. a year.
After a few preliminary enquiries, Mr. POLLOCK said,.
that the Gentleman he opposed had not given a proper
description of himself, inasmuch as he had left out of
his notice that he was Barrack-master at Cappoguin, in
Ireland, where the debts were contracted, for which
creditor he (Mr. Pollock), was the representative. The
Learned Gentleman stated his case brirfly as to the
debts contracted by insolvent, for which his client said
that he liaJ given bills on Mr. Windsor, of Craig's-court,
army-agent, at a time when he was well aware that
there were no assets to meet them.

The petitioner, in explanation said, that when he
gave the bills, which formed the present ground of
hostility, he had every expectation of meeting them ;
and in order that they should be duly paid, he came to
England to effect his object, but he was informed, con-
trary to previous expectation, that he was superseded
soon after his leaving the station, which circumstance
prevented his going back to Cappoquin.
The petitioner WAS then examined at great length by
Mr. Prosser, relative to his several military changes,
and the emoluments he derived from each, and to every
inquiry he gave unevasive replications. With respect
to the office to which he was appointed at Cappoquin,l
the ptitioner said he had received ss. a day beyond'
crals and candles, &c. which "addition
mixnt be estimated at 1034 a year; his half-pay was
631. a year, and he had a wife and three children ea-
tirely dependent on him for support. He denied that
be levee *new pessons by the name of Nottage and
Milier, except by name, who, it was said, beiaMe his
bail in an action brought by Mr. Prosser.
. .

After the complainant had interrogated the insolvent
at great length, he addressed the Court, and invoked
it to visit him with severe punishment. k had been
inquired r.f him whether he had not slid, that sooner
than compromise he would see Mr. Chambers rot- in
gaol ? He would not now swear that he did not use the
expression, but it must have been in a moment of irri;
cation that he said so, for he had eves been indulgent
to his military debtors. There was one circumstance
he would mention, which he thought would militate
against the prisoner (Mr. Prosser used this appellation
throughout), viz. that his claim being only 261. 15.61
originally, he caused the insolvent to be arrested, when
Nottage and Miller, to whom he had directed the insol-
vent's attention, gave bail, which tut ned out to be false,
and he (Mr. P.) prosecuted one of them to conviction,
for I, said he, saw him in the pillory—(Lauglatr),
and afterwards he was transported, the expense of
which prosecution, together a ith the original claim on
the prisoner, made me a sufferer to the amount of 1501.
and, therefore, I stand here on behalf of the creditors.
He concluded by again invoking the Court to send the
prisoner to the Bench, to rest himself after the fatigues
of his campaigns, and, also, that the Court would re-
commend that a portion of his half-pay should be set
aside lor the benefit of his creditors.
After the insolvent's Advocate had addressed the Court,
The CHIEF Comursaronea said, that there was- nos
thing proved against the insolvent, which could induce
the Court to remand him, for the clients for which
Counsel appeared, had brought no evidence to Contra-
.vene that given by the petitioner. As to Mr. Prosser's
objections, they were founded upon general assertions,
without a scintilla of substantial proof, and it would be
repugnaat to the-humane feelings of mankind, as well.
es contrary to, he practice of the Courk.ko..deprive any
-person of liberty upon such iintsinents; isio4VlalttheA
citcumstances, the insolvent would be entitled to:, his
discharge on his notices and schedule being corrected:.
About nine months ago, an insolvent of the nanie Of
Maria Bailey was examined by the Court, and remand-
ed for two years within the walls of the.prison, for
fraudulently makng away with 'her property.. This
day the daughter of the prisoner (a respectable looking
young woman) applied to the Court with a certificate,.
signed a Medical Gentleman, representing that her
sister was in a dying state, and extremely anxious to
see her mother. The applicant, therefore, supplicated'
the Court to revoke so much of its judgment, as to
make an order( to permit the insolvent to visit her.
Mr. HEATH said, that when the insolvent was before
the Court, he opposed her discharge, and he would
undertake to say, that his-elients would not object 'to
any order the Court might make upon the subject.
The COHinnsai sners considePed the applfcatinn
novel one ; and after conferring for some time, the
Chief Commissioner said, that he was exceedingly
sorry the C nit had u 4 the powei to grant the pt our
of the applicant, as they would gladly do it if the Att°
had invested them with suldcient power.
The young woman ,asst hearing this coinasunkatian fell inSis
violent hysterics, an tistilshe waajerass ousaltrilleg the Court"
with piteoui lamcntatious. .
