It was argued for the Underwriters, that it was contrary to the policy that the ship should change her name, and that althoth there was a power given for exchang ng simul 'Led `papers, yet there was an irre gidarity in making erasures upon the original papers, which was the ca.e in the present instance, so that any man might immediately see the deception that was practised and know the port from whence she came. It was al;edged that the sentence of condem nation had proceeded from the inaccuracy of the pa pers so erased. Besides this, it was contended that Lubec the country to which she had gone, was not a neutral port, but under French Government. Lord ELLENSOROUGH thought that the owner of ,the goods did not engage to represent the vessel as being ot any particular station, and therefore the alledged ground of condemnation could not free the Underwriters, and there was no evidence shown that Lubec WAS under the French Government. Verdict for the plaintiff —CM. aostssos V. HOWDEN. This was an action upon a polio , of insurance on goods by the ship Columbus, from Llndon to Riga, shipped per order of James Hill, for a Mr. '..torcks, of Riga, through Messrs. Hill, Jacobi, and Co. ot the same place. The only question in this case was, bather :here • were a vested interest in these goods in Storcks ? fdr if so, then it brought the case within the doctrine of that of Conway and Forbes, and he being an alien, could not sue. It was alledged that the goods were sent first to Hill, Jacobi, and Co. and only to be delivered to Storcks, conditionally, that he should make imme diate remittances. Before its arrival in June, at Riga, the vessel was seized by the Government of Russi , , and detained and sold, so that the goods never reach ed either oldie parties ; and it was . argued that Storc ks could not recover, as the vessel was seized by the Go vernment of his own country. The Plaintiff, in this case, only acted as agent for these parties, and the Jury first found that the greater part of the goods belonged to Storcks, and the remainder to Hil!, Jacobi, and Co. andfterwatds gave a verdict for the Plaintiff, as for a total loss, subject to a case. .EDINBURGH RACES.
