The Pinsitiff is a respectable merchant, and .the Defendrint not less so, he is a bookseller of much respectability in Pall Mall ; but it was not his cause bur that of a Knight, also a bookseller of no less notoriety : their astonishment would cease at the action being defended, when they heard that Sir Richard Phillips was the real Defendant. in tic, to Mr. Stockdale, he elitist state that he was ready and willing to pay ; he wrote a letter to the Plaintiff to that effect on the bill becoming due, but that he had been indemnified by the Knight, who WISH an endorser ou the Dote, not to pay it ex_ rept noder a verdict of a Court of l.aw. Hie( Mr. Parke) supposed Sir Richard hail found something out. Ile was careless what it was he would prove the Di fendant'a hand-writing, which, under the di.. reetion of his Lordship, would entitle the Planta to a verdict. Ue then proceeded to call his wit- Mr. Thomas Gillett proved the sip - mums of the Defendant, Mr. James Gillett, and Sir Richard I. Mips. On his cress eznminution, he said t h at James Gillett was his son, nod was a minor at the lime the note was driwn, he had been is Me the payee by mistake, but the witness eudursed it to give the 1111.11 C of his son validity. Lord ELLIN BORUCtitt olnierve(l, he was sure that was the case ; if it had not been so, it would not have been of any conseips.rtice, for his minority would not effect him si the agent of his renter. The bill end letter were then reed, dated 13th Merch len% 13 months after date, solvable to James Gillett, for 5241. 17s. .63., signed by the Plaintiff, 30, Pill Mall : letter signed JAllllJosepit Stockilele, Pelt Mall blot Piccadilly), directed to the Defendant, stating, that the bill was so situat ed as to one of the endorsers, on account of the failure of the house of Bloxhain and Co. bankers, that lie had lieeti served with a notice not to ply it. This was contrary to his *it'll ; he had the money ready ; and whatever advantage his 'miter might reap from its lying in his handi,he Vitt Defenda.,i' : could not g4lll any ; that Sir Richard Phillips had given him a bill of indemnity ; and concluded by hoping that all impedinseat would be soon re moved. This closed the Plaintiff's case. Mr. ATTORNEY-GILN ERA L, Counsel for the De fendant, said. hr was willing to pay the amount of the note : it ryas 110 t bi, intenliou to cast the least reflection on it ; it had passed through very.respeet able htio,ls: the Defendant made vouog Gillett the tinvee by accident ; he endorsed it to his father, from whom Sir Richard Phillips received it; he en-i .ravel it to Messrs. Rloshain, from whom the Manua( received it : lie was a money-broker. 0 • the 9th of September, Sir Richard Phillips re. c-.ved from Messrs. Illoshom their chick for •20001, payalde on the lith ; he gave them bills to nearly that, amount; and amongst them was that of Mr. Stockdale's: on the I Ith of September, Misers. Bluxham became bankrupts ; ou the 12th they banded the bill over to the Plaintiff; so that Messrs. Bluxhim had committed an act of bankruptcy be. fore they parted with the note, and it ceas.d to be vested iu 111 tu the moment of their insolvency; it was the property of their assignees ; and the De fendant ini4ht become liable to their assignees, for it was still vested in them ; although Messrs. Blots hans'i names did not apnea on tee hill, they had not a right to deliver. The Plaintiff had nu right to complain ; he had other securities in his pos session, which he received before tie bankruptcy, and had since given them up to toe assignees. If he parted with good security and adopted bad, be was Arne to blouse. It was not to br pectel by him, the- the ',hole 'sunbelt should fall on Sir Richard Phillips. Lord ELtentioatictin-1 , I doubt very much, Mr. Attorney-General, that this defence will an swer the allestntions °a the record. Von ought to have brought au action of trover for the recovery of the bill." Mr. rievotwee-Gassast.—" If there is a ver. diet for the Plaintiff, the Defendant will be liable to pay it twike." Lord ELL¢Itao&OUGH We are not to look to what may be t►e consegn-nces hereafter, but to what is now before ns : can the defence set up be en answer to an action against the acceptor of • promissory note? I am inclined to think not, and that the only redress Sir Richard Phillips could have had, would have been by bringing an action of trover. Mr. Attorney_Geoe►al, if you intend to proceed any limber, you will begin as if you were the Plaintiff, by proving the ,bankruptcy of Messrs. Blown." Mr. Arroamre-Guirattra said, he w■s aware of that, and proceeded to call his witnesses ; but only one of thrill answered. Mr. Oliver Vine. a clerk to the Iste house of Messrs. Bluaarn, proved that the bill Was due ou the 16th of April.

Mr. PAU( F. stated, that the Platiit,ff its thirt aetlon was a gentleman of property, formerly residing a a place calk(' Padnells, near Ilford. iu toles; .:tilt the Defendant wars an Attorney of that Court. Tt.e Plilutall . having came into pousesion of wise pro. perty in Cheshire, wished to reside there IBA:tare, trot thrn fare determined to dispose of t.•e ;r i se of h s house io &ate, and p.ir of th« furniture; a .:orditigly directed the Defends. t, who had been cuployed prores.ionally by him on othe , occasions. to Hof oure for a tenant.

Cumming. how. ever, bring ut:de► the rieoesiity of going into Cheshire, left the Defendant it settle tlmr wain. ta with Mr. Burrell ; and after iodic !ill.. I:atid the Defendant informed him that Mr. Burrell had declined raking the house, at she faille time intr serviog. twat to release hint from any further trust- Ide nn the subj.. , t, he (the Detendatit) would take the house on the same terms on which Mr. Burrell was to have had it. To this proposition the Plain. tiff readily agreed, and generously, on accoi.ot of the fnendsliip which existed between them, made an abatement in th.. price which Mr. Burrell was to h. we paid for it. The Defendant soon aster to• k pod session of the house ; and some time after the Plain. tiff applied to loin fo► the payment or 4511. being the sum it which the flunk's,' on the preiwses had been valued to Mr. Bartell. Instead or pa)ing this soil, the Un,i•ndaut tiresetwil a dealt .d to the Plaintiff* fo► upwards of 6001. fur bus i ness dons for film as an Attorney, although he give him ere, dit for various slims of money received on account, amounting to near that suns ; but no reedit on ac count of the furniture. That bid had been sub mitted to taxation; but althoneh fis quests appti• cation had been made to the Defendant for pay. merit of the 4541., sad he had absolutely sold the ritruttore, yet the Plaintiff had been stLic to oi)teiss nothing from him. Mr. PACK! Cu proceeding to cull witumis to prove these facts. when Mr. Gaittow, on the part of the Defendant, pro. pawl, that the Plaintiff shcuilti tate a verdict fur his whole demand, subject to a reference. This es. agreed to eu the part of the Plaintiff; fur whom tl.e Jury friond a verdict for 4541. OSGOOD C. CROWING. This was an issue directed by the Lord Chancel lor,to try whether the Plaintiff was entitb d to freight on a cargo of Sugar uud rice, from the port of Charleston, in the United States of Americo, to the port of Landow, tinder the following circum stances :—The Plaintiff and Defendant are both citizens of America ; the Grist the contain of the ship Itepttote, and the latter a merchant in New York.. 11. e Defendant chartered the idap to proceed to Chalks's°, an I take in a cargo of sugar and rice, and from thence to proceed either to Vonniti gen, Am.terd Ail, or Rotterdam. She was taken at sea by one of His Majesty's eraizers, and sent into Plymouth, but was afterwards released. When the ship left the United &stet, neither of the parties were aware of the Orders in Comsat! of this coun try, or the subsequent Decree of. France. The Plaintiff, on being mode acquainted with the na ture of them, applied to the agents of the Defend.. ant, in London, for their advice. It was just after the bombardment of Copenhagen, which 'nail. all the ports in the Baltic suspieions of admitting vessels from England into their harbours. The agents recommended him to wilt, and try to get a licence from this Government to go to Rotterdam. After heviag delayed some time without being able to get a licence, he was ordered by the agents to proceed to Rotterdam. H. took advice, cud was firmly persuaded if lie did, his ship would lie COD bleated : a circular letter front the American Con sul in Newburgh confirmed that opinion. He was then advised to take advantage of the Order of Council, which directs that all neutrals sheath, touch at a British port, enter her cargo, and pay duty be fore she proceeded to the harbours of the enemy ; he accordingly entered his cargo , and wrote to II lb owners in America to know how to proceed.
