This was a queltion of great imp& rtalice, and came from Hull. The Defendants were owners of veffels that were regillered at the Cullom houfe at Hull, which Cuflom-houfe was within the parilh of St. Mary ; and there Defendants hatl been in refpeet of that property, and appeal.:d lion, that rate to the Court of King's Bench. Mr. ERSKINI and Mr. l'oprims fupported the rate, and argued it on the 43d of Elizabeth, and the gth of William 111. It was here admitted, that the !hips were locally within the limits and jurifdiaion of the rate. That was the place where they received the profits from the (hipping : it was the place of their return, and where it might be generally liippored the owner lived. He laid he mull rely on the port in which the lhip was regd . - tered as the home of the (hip, as it was called, otl?erwife it would be extremely difficult to rate property in (hips, not merely as chatdes, bat as failing from port to port, according to the will of the owner. They might firft fail to the Well In dies, and from thence to the Eaft, all over the world, and remain totally without the jnrifdiaion of the Court I and all this time the owner making his profits upon them. Lord ELLCMIOCOo6H.—" Suppofe I flIOUld re main at York for a week in the year, fhould I be rateable in refpeet of my carriage ? I fhould think you will find fume difficulty to make it rateable. Suppofe a (hip to fail conftantly between Newcaftle and London, or between Neweaftle and Dublin, that is a ftronger cafe than the prefent ; and yet though this (hip is conftantly vibrating between there two points, I fhould think it difficult to afcribe to it that degree of locality which is neceffary to make it rateable. There are fome ports in the kingdom where a great number of (hips are built and regiftered, as Whitby ; and it would be a monftrous propofition to fay, that all thefe fhips fhould be rated there." _ _ Mr. Juftice Ls &sac —" What do you fay of all the Itage coaches—Are they rateable at every place where they put up ?" Mr. ERSKINE Paid, he (Mould contend they were. When their Lordthips confidered the immenfe pro perty in (hipping in this kingdom, and how necef fary it was to provide for the poor of the land, if they did not rate on the footing of where the (hip had her home, her habitation (if he might ufe that expreffion), it would be extremely difficult to fay how this fpecies of property was to be rated. Every (hip by the Itegifter Aft mutt belong to Come par ticular port. LordELLS/1110a000H." That is merely for the purpofe of transfers, and the convenience of trade." Mr. EssKINB Paid, this rate was not impofed on the profits of thefe (hips, but on the value of them. Here the Defendants have three Chips lying in the old port of Hull, value 36001. and it does not ap pear they were ever out of that port. Mr. JulUce LAWRENCE direeted the attention of the Counfel to the cafe of the King v. the Inhabi tants of Liverpool, a note of which his L9rdfhils read, and which militated againft the prefent cafe. Mr. Juftice Gaon laid, he could never content to fay, that a man was rateable in the Nal where his Ihips happened to be regiftered. In the part • of the country where he refided, a (hip's home, as it was called, in feveral instances, was not the place where he was built. He could Hate a thou land instances of it. It was only, in very few in fiances, where (be was built. He knew it hap pened that up a little creek (hips were built of a very confiderable fize, and it was not the home of any (hip. They were regiftered in a port at a distance. The Court permitted the parties to amend and relate their cafe. THE IL IN 0 V. 22222 The Defendant was convided by' a Jake of the Peace as driver of the Northampton aage.coach of carrying more than fix outfide palengers. The conviction was brought up by certiorari, and Mr. Rates now contended that it ought to be quaffied. The principal objcaion he took was, that the De. fendant was not defcribed with fufficient particula• rity as the driver. Mr. Jtalice Lawalect anted him if he argued that he that drove the coach was not the driver Mr. RAINE Paid, that for any thing that appear. ed in the conviftion, Mr. Barker might be one of thofe young men of falition who put themfelves under the tuition of flage-coachmen to learn the noble art and myflery of driving four in , hand. Lord ELLINBOROUGH obferved that he had no difficulty in declaring, that in his opinion, if any young man of fathion were to have delegated to him, not only the reins but the whole management of the coach, and were to take on more than the allowed number on the box and the outfide, that he would be refponfible under the aft, and might be fentenced to the punifbment which the aft am pores—Fine And Imprifonment in the Houfe of Correction.—(4 lad latsgh.) Mr. ERSILINI-1 was placed on the box along with my friend, Mr. Rause, re drive/hi/J*4r t but as I find the Court rather rffiive, I think it better to *taunt where we now are.—J udgment affirmed. Mr. Raise exprelfed a hope that this Cafe would produce a very falutary effect at the Weft End of the Town. TNt RING V. TYII.III/14If. The Defendant, Colonel T. occupies, together with his wife and family, apartments in the bar racks near Porzfmouth, which were fitted up for him in tBot, by command of the Board ofOrd nance. The quellion was, whether in tripe& of thefe apartments he was rateable to the fupport of the poor, under the 43d of Elizabeth ? The cafe having been argued c.n a former day, Lord ELLE sosoco ii new delivered the opining' of the Court. After a very elaborate judgment. his Lordfliip laid, that the Defendant IA as as much buund to contribute to the fupport of the poor, as the rangers of parks. the members of adminiltra. tion who hold official houfes, and others who have a beneficial occupation of property belong. ing to the Crown.—Judgment affirmed. 'Phis is one of the mat important &atm that ever took place upon the poor laws.
