The form of action alluded to was .especially suited to the purpose, and was so constructed, that the merits of the origiial transaction might be ascertained. If the de-. fendant did not appear within the 40 years, then the judgment would be available against him. Mr. Sergeant WILDS, for the defendant, contended that this claim ought to be considered as satisfied—in the first place, on account of the great length of time which had ela psed since the debt was contracted. which' was in 1799; and secondly, because the bankrupts, from their frequent communications with the East Indies, had many opportunities of proving a settlement of their demand. They were well known in London iss well as Ediaborgh, as bankers and as men of basiness it was no more than probable that they had availed themselves of the advantage of their-repeated commu nications is the east. Under these circumstances, the Learned Sergeant thought the Jury would be of opinion that the plaintiffs had no right to recover. The LORD CHUN JOSTICIE summed op, leaving the. case'to tht Jury 'as it had appeared in evidence; and '.therreturned a verdict for the plaintiffs for the full, amount, with laterest from the time of the adjudicatiFin., The LORD Cinar JUATICR then gave the defendant' leave to move to enter a nonsuit, onAhe . ground that the' . law of Scotland with respect to the citation of an absent man was unreasonable, and ought as be recogniied by an English Court. • SIORDIT A ND ANOTHER V. lIALL AND Mr. Sergeant WILDS stated...that iss 'Wear", thp tiffilotigltl to recover the valliescrikqearitity df 0004 1 , which had been damaged on bolted a steies,vessel,,eaC led the Superb, belonging to the Steiti Navigation' Company, of which the delendants-were the ditector s.— The Superb vies bound from London to Antwerp, 'arid on the 9th of February last, the plaintiffs 'shipped' I quantity of indigo on board her, to be conveyer to Antwesp.
