The Learned Counsel stated, that he moved this by consent of all parties, to expedite the business. The Motion was granted. • COURT OF KING'S BENCH. Jove SI. Pe fore Lord ELLtlvaonorass and Special Juries at PATRICK V. EMMES. This was an Action on a Policy of Insurance on f; right, on goods shipped, or contracted to be shipped, at auy of the Cape de Verde Islands. The objett of the action was to raise the queition on valued Va ries on freight, where all the goods were not on . itaid at the time of the loss. There were two ue,lion‘;, first, as to some goods, the property of • :i v owners of the vessel; and secondly, as to a full ;:t-go of A•chilta Weed, to the extent 61'3 . 0 tons, !licit it was ra'culatAti the vessel would "contain, , •lyre having hceu only about 110 or . 120 bag's taken , at the time the vessel was lost in a pie of As to the goods, the property of the Owzners,it ns stated by Mt. MARRYA'TT, that they were taken II at Goree, and, of course, -come trot .coe within the termti of the insurance. Lord EtAcsinottotniu said, hi sbnuld doubt of he right to recover as to them, even if their did rime within the terms if the pclicy ; as well might :I man charge forgoing about h'h own btitinees. Mr. Paiticsubmitted, that this was a new case in • ; , ecie. John Brown, Captain of the Providence, and had beep *Mate of that vessel, while Waldron ! Atli . Captain of her, proved that Captain Waldrbn'l —tirchased the Jane, the vessel on the freight bf hich the policy had bete made, for the purpose of i creating a contract which he had eutered into with Gwieenor.General of the Cape de Verde/slands,l ind with a Person named Finanuel Martins, for con.; ..tying in her a cargo of Archilla Weed from those I i,lands. They had made a calculation that the vessel would carry 300 tonsof this weed. At St. Ti. bolas ahout 110 or I'2o bags were taken On board. ; ':he was to complete her cargo at the other islands, ronl was on the point of . sailing for this purpose, w hen a sudden storm having come on, she was wrecked on that island. Martins was at that time at iinna Vista, procuring Archilla Weed, for the corh.l ..!eting of the cargo, and the Governor was at tt. Nicholas, for the purpose of proceeding round in the , .lane, to the other islands. Lord ELLENISOROVGn said, this was an interest in rvpectatien only, whereas in all the other cases Ivhich had come before the Court, at all hearing on die point, there was a certainty. His. Lordship t:ould not have been disposed to make a distinction etween a parole contract and one in writing ; but ere there was, nothing certain. Mr. ScseLerr wished his Lordship only to hear hat the witness had farther to say. The Witness added, that 150 men had been ein • ploy ed in the other Islands, picking the weed, hut; how much they had picked he could net say. He understood the vessel was to be filled ; but be 'was not present when the contract was Made. Lord Et.t.extvonotiett said the facts 'did nOt'biar the Plaintiff out. This was wire-drawitVf the else of Montgomery and Ecclestou," which wattild not itttar wiredrawing.

This was an action brought by the Pkinliff, a shipper of goods on board the Fast India CoMpany's extra ship the Monarch, to reeever from the Defend. int, who was the Captaiu of that ship, the value of three boles of silk shipped by the Plaintiff on hoard the Defendant's vessel, and for the safe delivery of which, by the Act of the 434 of the King, he, as Captain of the vessel l is liable, as well as the owners 6f the vessel. • It was proved that 15 bales of silk Were shipped and entered in the bill of lading, on the Plaintiff's account, and that only 12 of these were received by him out of the East India Dock Company's Ware- I houses. Mr. PARK, for the Defendant, offered to show that the spoliation had not taken place, while the goods were under the care of the Defendant, but lifter they had come into the custody and keeping of i he Company. Lord ELLENROROUGR held, however, that the responsibility of the Captain continued. The onus lay on him to show that it was in the Decks, or in the Dock Company's warehouses the Joss happened, and then would have his remedy over. If II i• were not so, the hardship to which the shipper would he exposed would be irremediable. The Jury accordingly found for the Plaintiff—, Damages, 3691. 7s. DOE V. SYDRiti.R* This was an action of ejecdsoutkrought by Mr. Wiltshire, a respectable soliatiK4o others, to re cover from the Defendant posseilifiti 'of certain tene ments known by the name of the Old Pay Office, si tuated in Broad-street, in the City of London. • The Plaintiffs c'aimed under an assignment from the last remainder man, under the will of a Gentle man of the natue of Burdett, who hasl:proliibited the tenants in possession from letting leases for more than twenty-one years, v. ithout,fine, premium, or foregift, and unless for the best Poisible rent that could be got. The Defendant, on the other band, claimed under a lease granted to him,by the tenants in possession, in the year 181 G, for twenty-one years, at the reserved rent of 52'21. although it ap peared that he had never paid to the tenants in pos. Session during their lives more then 3651. of rent. To prove the yearly value of the property in the year ISIO, the period when the lease was executes!, a number of surveyors were examined, who estimated it at from 1010!. U. 12901. For the Defeodsnt two surveyors were examined, who, with a view to the lease in question, pat upon the property the amount of the reserved rent con tained lit that lease, as its real value, or the best rent that could he got for it. It appeared, however, that it: forming their estimate they took into. their consideration taxes, insurance, and other items, not necessarily connected with the subject. The cal lector of the Defendant's rents was also exami.o.d, who proied that the excess rents at present did not on an avetage exceed 1001. and on one occasion *fell short of the reserved rent. From the cross-examina tion of some of the oe:endow's witnesses, however, it appeared, that he now asked 3001. for one of the houses formerly let by him for 1951. and that he had estimated his lease as worth 60001. or 70001. One or the witnesses, though he did not like speculations, would himself give more than 10001. for the lease ; and since the }ear 1810, such property, in the City of London, had fallen in value from 15 to 20 per cent. Lord FA.l.Essonoucir held, that in these circum stances, the reserved reNt could not be an'improved one. The lease therefore was void, as having been gritnted contrary to the terms on which alone the tenant was entitled to make it. The meaning of the restriction in the deed was, that the remainder man, or the person succeeding 1,1 his right, should have the best improved rent, as between man and man, which could be got et the time of making the lease. If the Jury believed the evidence, then was the lease void, and the Plaintiffs were entitled to be let into possession. The Jury immediately found for the Plaintiffs. Lord ELLENBOROVGII here finished the Sittings lifter Term. The Assizes for the toitury commented on Weclioet , day. On Friday,.
