INSOLVENT COURT. vent having left Calcutta to defraud his creditors. Mr. Higgins, at some length, explained the case, and cited the 10th Sec. 9 Geo. 4 Cap. 73. The order was accordingly granted. SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1832. BEFORE THE HON'BLE SIR JOHN FRANKS. Captain John Holt White, was brought up this day and discharged, no one appearing to oppose him. The Hon'ble Commissioner inquired if the Insolvent was in receipt of any pay or allowance from the Government, and being informed in the affirmative, the schedule was ordered to be amended, by its insertion, and one-third of it, in amount Sa. Rs. 90, to be appropriated by the assignees, in payment of the Insolvent's debts. Mahomed Tuckey, late a darogah in the Custom House was next discharged. In the matter of C. G. Strettell.—On a former day, the Insolvent having applied to the Court, under the 53d Sec. of the Act of Parliament, to be for ever discharged from all liability, whatsoever, for and in respect of all debts, enumerated in his schedule, on the grounds of a consent, in writing, of more than one-half of his creditors, in number and amount to that effect; the Hon'ble Commissioner observed, that as the application was of great importance, and as he saw the name of a minor appearing on the schedule as a creditor, whose rights might be affected, he thought it necessary to refer to the other Judges, before he disposed of the question. The Hon'ble Commissioner now, ad. verting to the above application, stated, that he had spoken to the rest of the Court; had brought before them the whole of the circumstances, and had gone over every particular of the schedule, with the greatest attention and care. That he saw nothing in it which could throw the least imputation on the Insolvent; on the contrary he and the Court considered it a case of peculiar fairness. That the Court did not consider the rights of the infant could be interposed to the application of the Insolvent and the circumstances of the case, and that the testimony of the creditors was highly creditable to him and he had, therefore, great pleasure in giving him his final discharge, to which he was entitled. Tho order was made accordingly. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1832. The cases of Martin Petrie, Rajkissore Dutt, and Thomas Pottinger, was ordered to stand over for further hearing. In the matters of William Prinsep and George Alexander Prinsep, orders Nisi were granted to show cause why the debit of Mrs. Aune Fergusson should not be struck out from their respective schedules. In the matter of W. D. Sinaes --Mr. Higgins having, on a former day, ob tained an order for the attendance of the Insolvent, with a view to have some part of his pay and allowance, as an assistant in the Treasury, assigned over to his assignee, for the benefit of his creditors, the Insolvent attended this-day, and Mr. Strettell, his attorney, was heard against such appropriation, he contending that the Insolvent was not a covenanted servant, and liable to be turned out at pleasure, by those under whom he was employed. The Court refused Mr. Higgins' application, holding that the clause in the act directing such appropriation, related only to those who were covenanted servants of the Company or the Crown. SATURDAY, FEB. 25, 1832. Sir E. Ryan took his seat as Commissioner, a little after twelve o'clock. The only business that appeared on the board was that of making a dividend in the matter of the petition of Thomas Pottinger, an insolvent. The assignee stated that the debts amounted to Sa. Rs. 1,48,608, and the amount recovered was only 658, being less than a pie in the rupee. The Commissioner inquired whether the assignee expected to recover any other money, and was told that there was no probability of it; he then directed that that fact should be stated on the affidavit, and this having been done, the insolvent's application was granted. The Court was occupied the rest of the afternoon in hearing motions in different cases.-India Gazette. CALCUTTA, FEB. 29, 1832. INDIGO MART, MARCH 1, 1832. SEVENTH REPORT UPON THE INDIGO MARKET. The transactions of this month have almost entirely cleared the market, the few parcels which remain for Sale are principally from Tyrhoot, Purneah, and the Western Provinces, with several small lots of Native produce, from lower Bengal.-Purchasers for England and America have been active throughout the month, and about the middle of it Bome considerable purchases, by the Company, to complete their Investment, created an advance in prices of about Ten per Cent., they have since, however, dropped gradually to the current rates of the season, and the market is now almost inactive.

Very little has been done in silk during the past month; in fact there have been ouly three small importations from the interior for sale in this market, the rest being for direct exportation to Europe, in first hands. The produce from the November bund has been neither superior nor abundant, and Native mer. chants have avoided altogether contracts for supplies of this bund. Prices at the aurungs of Cossimbazar and Bauleah have been unusually high, and are likely to remain so while the present very active demand for silk piece goods conti. Dues. The season promises a very fine March bund, particularly so in Radnagore. There was an auction sale on the 22d ultimo, at the Company's Export Warehouse, of their factory surplus weight, inferior and damaged raw silk; in all, about 245 maunds, prices ranging rather higher than those of similar sales in past tom House Report, to Great Britain, by Company, 23727 Private Account,... 54565 78292 To France,.... 15257 Cossimbazar of November bund, of good quality-all on hand, and held at 12 per factory seer; an offer of 11 4tor part has been refused Bauleah, not opened for sale.
