In the Insolvent Debtors' Court, last weak, Colonel
r.:sotio, whose case has been repeatedly before the
;Alm, was discharged. The objections made by his
::edit I's to his discharge were chiefly founded on his
rxtraviant way of life when in prison, and his lend-
;lg money to persons, instead of paying his debts with
it. SetjLant RustursiaTorf observed, that. although by
elo means satisfied With the Insolvent's conduct, yet
thought it would be better for the creditors at large
tD discharge him, as in this case An Assignee would
be immediately appointed, and the debts would be
rut in a train of payment ; whereas if the Colonel
remained in prison, he night squander all he had.

`-+T, injured three persons in a dangerous manner.
ibe yacht was injured on Saturday week in a slight
degree, and had been repaired to render it fit for its
earsage yesterday. It fortunately had no persons on
rend at the time the event occurred on Saturday,

'll"ek was very great, but the injury done to the yes-
rel is very slight. The top of the t•ng:ne boiler was
been
off by the explosion. The conductors had
rowing it up the river, and when it had got to
