He was now examined by lIr. 'Pot. LocK;, and accounted for. the money by saving that tWo persons to whom he had given goods ran aviav in his debt.-.the one in a sum of 8001., and the other 3001.; that he went, to the country after them and was absent three weekls, but did not succeed. in meeting witi either of tbeni. During his abstnce, his wife was, lie said; robbed of a small box of jewels of upwards of 2001. in value. On further exarnination, the insolvenf Ebuld not tell from whom he had obtained those jewels. AMr. Kipling was then examined, and. stated that he is a-iosier, living in the Poultry. The insolvent came to.him some time back, and repre8enting himself as. a -shipper of goods gave-him an order for a considemble quantity. xron .time to time 7he caUedi atid gave other orders, stating on those occasi6ns that he was entjiled to a con- siderable .um of money in right of his wife, and tbatbe-was a lease: holtler of the hoLse he lived in. In this way lie got goods,from Ir. Kipling to the amount of 7111., of which he pai him oniy 1811. It turned out, however, that the representations'lie gave of himself were nutcorrect; there were several. other persons from whom he had obtained oods, in Cotut, ready to appear against lhim; but in consequence ot the Cornmissioners in attendauce having to meet the other Commissioners at four o'lock;, the case was adjourned over to . M1onday morning._______. i rNSOL VEBT DWBhITRS' CO UPT, ocRt. 8,
