THF CnfoIMISSIONFRS TOR COMPENSATION UNDER'THE WEST INDIA D:CK This was an anion under a fpeciAl claufe in the Aft of the 30) n! hi, nre:ent Maltlly, commonly called the Wett India 1) ck Aft, htutiOit to recover com• penfati n in (lama. es F r an aveiage lids full:tined by the claimants, in confequence of the introduttidn of the Well India Docks. _ _ _ Mr. Serjeant 13t sr, as leading Counfel for the Claimants, addieffed the Court He faid this was a qu:ltion of very cnoli.lcrable public importance. It was a vellion bete:tell the public and certain indivi duals claiming nit:pent - 46 , m at the hands of a Jury cf Metchi , ts, for an avetage on lopes fitllained Un der the Aft of P.tiliam_nt, which authorized them to try this cattle, and upon the nature and effeft of which they were the mil competent to decide. The claimants were n.. 11 rapeflable merchants, and, previous to the Nihrtn. of this Aft, were the owners and occupiers of certain warehoufes, inflated en Tower Hill, and of that dcfctiption called Up-town Warehoules, to dillinguilit them from the legal quays: the defendants were, in fait, the public, but repre fented by certain perfons denominated Commiffionets for Cornpenfation. In c..nfequence of the cultivation of .iur Well India Colonies, the incteafe of produce fr. , m the Welt India ;nand, the ports of France being flon againit us, and the prohibition of our trade with many of the Continental Powers, an extraut dittary demand for warehoufes was cleated, and it became necelfary to erefl the Well India Docks, for which onpofe the Aa of Parliament then under confidera tion was palled, which al fo.by a fpecial claufe b appointed the prefent Commitlioners to afcertain and grant corn penfatiitt to the owners of warehoufes, who fhould he it:jured thereby; and in cafe of refufal to accept of fuch compenfati , n, then the quelliun was t.: be decided Ix:- fore a Jury of Lond-in Merchants. The quellion there fore now was,w hat compenfat ion there gentlemen were entitled to, and how fuch cumpenfatton was to be afcertained ? The Aft direfted that the average flifoild be taken ft um the three or four years produce, " before the palling of the laid Aft." Thefe words, however, lie confidered nonfenfical, and contrary to julfice, law, and common fenfe ; for if taken in the literal meaning, the average of compenfation mull be mere gods work, fince, under the exiling cir enmllances, it was not poffible to afcertain the ave rage, but by the lubfequent produce. The Learned Connie' here catered into a minute calculation of the average profits of the claimants ; firll, from the year 1795 (four years previous to paling the Al)c to 1799, and from that period to the year 1804, from which he contended that they were entitled to an annuity .if 7301. which, calculated at the rate of nine and a half years, amounted to 65701. the fum which his clients now claimed. Previous to palling this Al,c the claimants had expended a fum of 10601. in making thefe warehoufes more commodious, and fit for the purpofe of warehoufing Well India produce ; the average interelt of this fum, he conceived they were alto entitled tn. The premifes had fince been fold to an At my Contra. or for 15001. which hum, he admitted, was to be dedufled from the grofs claim. With refpeft in the word., of the Aft itfelf, upon which lie had already obfetved, there was a precedent exiling to fet them Aide, and to julify Slim in making his average from the period fubfe. quent to palling the Aft ; this was the cafe of the legal gnays, where full compenfation was made, up , m an average for the three 101 l years, fince the Paling of the Aft, when no appeal whatever was made, and all patties were perfefily fatisfied. The leafe to the claimants of the premifes in quer lion was produced, which appeared to be for 21 years from July 1794, at the ) early rent of 24 1. including taxes. Mr. W. Dowling, clerk to the claimants, produced the feveral accounts of their annual profits, &c. and being examined, laid that thefe warrhoufes were ufed for the purpole of warehoufing fugars, and other Well lr.dia produce ; and, in confequence of the great in. creafe of impor ts,other warehonte. mull have been pro. vided, had not the Welk. India Docks been built. In the early part of 1799, the charge for warehoufing was at the :ate of 4d. per calk; but for the two year s after, the charge was increaled to 7d. per calk, per week, upon the legal quays ; but the claimants' %rarely ufes being more convenient, they only charg ed at the rate of 3d. per calk on large calks, and 2d. on (mall. They paid one year's tent at the time of the opening of the Docks, without receiving any profit whatever. Mr. Thomas Banning, a cooper, (Poke to the nfual charges for warehoufing at the period in quef tion, the caufes which increaled thofe charges, and the great demand fa- warehoufe room. He laid he Should not have 'lrritated to give _cool. for the pre miles at that time, and had no doubt of making a profit of kali 2501. per annum. Mr. Holding, a refpeaable merchant and ware houfeman, produced an account of the quantity of &gar warchoules front 1795, to 1804. Mr. Frederick Purdy, another warehoufe man, alfo (poke to the caufes of the iticreare of charges, and great demand for warehotifes. The Avroartyy GEN LRAL, on the part of the Com tniffionets, obfeivrd that nothing was more reafona ble than to average the profits by an equal number ~fgood and bad years ; but taking it upon the Plain tiffs' own (tatement, and the rafts from their own books, the average amounted to e3cl. t ts. 2d. per annum; and dedofling the 15co1. 'ince paid them, for the warehoufes, would leave a balance of corn peniation in their favour of 6851. This, he united, the Jury wa uld fee was the real jultice of the cafe, and according to the words o f t h e Act, wou ld b e a full, liberal, and jail crmpenfation. the RECORDEtt, in charging the Jury, nbferved, that his mind h.ct been made up from the v e ry open ing ut the Claimant's Counfel, upon the legal quer -6(41 in this cafe. It was admitted, that the inct cafe of trade which flowed into this city made it necelfary to build thefe docks, and by building them parties were irjured, and the compenfation could only be granted, ups n the average, up to the rime of palling the Att of Parliament. The preamble and the en aaing daufe were the whole perdu. of the IsrL of Par liament ; and on; put any other conitruflion upon it, wriolsl be opening a wide field to fraud : the claufe theltfoic, opinioup tclated to nothing iubfe• quent to parting the At; but he was happy that his pinion was Hill itthjeft to a higher joriftiktion. The jot y woe to confider what was a fair, full, and libe ral comnenfAtion, and lhould calculate upon an ave rape previ"tts to palling the At : they would air) take int , , their cunlideration the fum expended in improving and enlarging the premifes, and make a teafonable allowacce of intereli upon that fum. The Jury retired for about a quarter of an hour, and then brought in a verdk of 8021. 18s. 9d. Srveral other cafes of a fitnilar nature were de pending, the confideration of which is poilponeclun a the neat adjournment day, NJvember Is. CLERKE WELL SESSIONS. YefleidayAnn ,‘,bart.'es, a poulterer in St. Swi- thin's-alley, was found guilty of an atTault upon a girl of the name of Sarah Taylor, his lodger, by vio lently ohltrating her entrance into her own apart ment. This affault appeared to have arifen from a mil conception of the young woman's conchal ; but the circurnflances were by no means intereaing. The prifoner was fined in the Turn of 51. 7ohn filikarcrth, a whipmaker in Islington, was indicted ter an attempt to commit a rape upon a girl in his employ, named Elizabeth Day, only twelve years of age. The evidence, in this cafe, was both tedious and improper to be detailed to the public. The prifoner was acquitted. A man of the name of John Swan, an old clothef man in kolemary-lane, and a young lad, his fhop man, named Green, were charged with a violent al fault upon a woman of the name of flat rid Salter. It appeared that the profecutrix had gone to the above mentioned lane in order to purchafe a loaf from a man who had there erected a Ralf, in order to fell bread at a cheaper rate than any of the bakers in London. This occafioned a crowd to he daily col lected, to the great anncyarice of the neighbours, in• habitants, and pafrengers in that (trees. The De fendant, who lived oppofite to him, was fo much exafperated against this intruder, that be not only encouraged his lhupman, but even affitted in attack ing thole who dealt with temporary bakers. The profecutrix, after having purchafed her loaf, was proceeding peaceably homeward, when the was al. failed by the young man, Green, Kith a pail full of dirty water thrown over her. This naturally czar perated her, the, in revenge, took up the tails of her petticoats and fplafhed him well in the face. This attack creating a crowd, and exciting the refentment of this Defendant, he firuck the woman, and was anted in the a Gott by his mailer, the other Defendant. They were both found guilty, and fentenced to pay a fine proportionable to the offence. Sarah Catchpole was indifled for a violent affault upon Elizabeth Macbeth, in Vinegar Yard, Drury Lane. Mrs. Macbeth, or Macbcath, is a priellefs both of Pomona and Thetis, or, in plain Engliffi, (he keeps a fruit and oyfter Chop in Vinegar Yard, one of the principal avenues to Drury Lane Theatre, and where, af courfe, her cultomers may be either regaled with all the fruitage of the Helperides, or the firefly delicacies of Pyfleer, Melton, and Whitflable : the alfo deals occalionally in Les ft tickets, and can help her friends with admiffions to the Theatre on terms much Mow par. The Defendant, a nymph of the fame order in the fame neighbourhood, deals alio in " Nice fruit and bills of the play ;" and her mother, betide vending the fame kinds of merchandize, is alto a rival to Mrs. Macbeth in the trade of LrnJs tk!as. Whether or not the C:o(hIcli of Difrord had flung any of her apple: amon?,lt the nymph. and matrons who ufually ply in this way about the Theatres, certain it is that constant contention and perpetual warare the orders of tire night between them. From the tharcinent of Clunk], and the fubfe quent evidence of Mrs. Macbeth, it appeared that the mother of the Defendant was endeavouring to difpofe of a benefit ticket to a Gentleman for the night's admitliou, at two thillings under the regulated price, and juft as he was about to clofe the bat gain, a young lady, one of the agents a f Mrs. Macbeth, (!apt in, and offered to fell her filver ticket fixpence cheaper. The Gentleman purchafed from the latter. The old Lady became enraged f. r the lots of her cultomer, and add:tired . the young one in a Stile of elerprence well known in Vinegar Yard, and vulgarly called " tippiu; the language.; "' The young Lady re taliated molt 'flippantly, and gave the old one a truth. Several of the feniars cried " shame" at .her, and told the prolecutrix what had happened. The af faihAnt thought fit to confult her fafety in a quick retreat to the houfe of her miltrefs, Mrs. Macbeth, who came to the trop door to interpofe. Mils Catch• pole planted her foot on the threfhohi, and, in a fpeech fraught with very forcible rhetoric, began to " f;/ow up" Mrs. Macbeth. Much high words and low larguage cefited. Mrs. M. (hocked in her deli cacy, cried " frame" at the Defendant ; and having a (mall flip of paper in her hand, (hook it at her, and laid the had a good mind to make her repent her lan guage. The Defendant replied by daring her to come outride the deer, and the would " tear her Ie) es nut." Mrs. Macbeth prudently declined the ex periment, when Mils Catchpole flew at her ala ti,grf a lc, and gave her Inch a blow as nearly deprived her al breath. Mrs. Macbeth immediately grafeing the foot of a float which lay en the counter, laid that only for refpea to the laws the would wreak ample vengeance or. the affailant. Thi s " burly burls" Ison e colleeted a crowded and mifcellaneous affembly round the door ; and a male friend of Mrs. Macbeth% then in the (hop ruffled forth, Seized Mifs Catchpole by the neck, and banded her over to the cuflody r f a perfon officially beating her fermi!; name, who conveyed her tu Bow- II reef, tvhere the was held to bail for her appearance. On the part of Mifs Catchpole, two swift/per: appeared to give evidence againti the Lady Macbeth, ore of whom fvrore, that the latter had first thrutt a paper acrofs the eyes of the defendant, and when the raifed her hand to put the paper away, Mrs. Macbeth gave her al:tripe with her hand acrofs the face. The Jury, however, thought proper to find MifsCatchpale guilty, and the was fentenced to (even days consuement. The woodcocks have already reached the Norfolk coati. On Friday and Saturday lalt H.
