Und er tkese circumstances hu : was invited to Russia by Sir Charles Gascoigne, who offered him not only aft ' asylum in his distress, but pecuniary assistance if he should be disposed,to embark in any new scheme for bettering his tontine. Mr. Stein accepted the offer, and beit an eminent distiller, be felt 4sr posed to speculate nn•the well-known . passion'of the Russians.for ardent spiuta. Accordingly; by the advances and credit chiefly of SirCliaries.G.sscniene, Mr. Stein Was enabled to erect large distili e r r t s Ru•sia k and to carry on his spec• • ulatinti4,on a very extensive scale during a pe riod of . yeirly ten. years.

Charles, a na turalized Russian subject, ought to be obliged to seek payment of the above bills out of those con fiscated 1111)4; .that with regard to : Lady Hadding ton, sire was the donee of Sir Charles, and at any rate was not an onerous indorser, and consequently every objection that was good against Sir Charles was equally, available against,ber ;: that of course she ought to seek her payment in RUSSia, where the whole funds of the true debtor. were locked up by the arbitrary Edith of the Russian Government. The bill of suspension was passed by Lord Iler• mated. .Alitiost l itnniediately afterwards, on the death of the EMperor Paul, the sequestration of British property was rettroved,l7th of May, taut, by his successor s and the balances tenni:Mug in the hands cif the Cortimisaioners were ordered to. he re stored to the British owners.

On advising the petition and answers, tho Court were clear, on she first point, that the trills were payable, and were properly sued for . in this tryl and' that Lady kiaeldington could not b e 8(114 to Russia to demand paym-Jtit of them from Mr. Stein's Russian fundi..
