consequence of that violent mid illegal seizure of

his person. ,
The anions against the Underwriters were brought
on the score of barratry. Nowel, the Master, instead
of bring the ship and carp, accmdiog to' her _
destination, to London, having sold that part of her'' •
'cargo,. which consisted of cotton, at Bee mudae'and
taken the: ship to Baltimore, where be lendekthe t
coffee.. A few days after the. arrival. of the ship at
Baltimore, newel died.
The principal ground of defence -set up by. the
Utide!*rilers was, that a persop of the name. of
Grogaod was Mr. Goodall's_ Supercareo, and the ship
was taken to Baltimore by him, and not by Nowel,
the Master.• The Underwriters also endeavoured to
shelter themselves. upon the grounds that the. ship
had made deviations, and thet she - was not sea-
worthy. for want of suffiCient. provisions ; ita. all of
Which they failed.
Mr. Fletcher, the plaintiff's attorney, and manager'"" ,
for all his concerns in Efigland, having proved that the
witneses, examined on the former trials were DOW
abroad, their eVidence was read by consent from the
Judge's notes, iii addition to which, the first mate of
the Earl Bathurst, . who had arrived since the former
trialsewes examined on the part of the plaintiff It
appeared 'that Grogand was merely a passenger on
board the ship, • and that he was entered as such in
the log-kook, and thht there were sufficient provi-
sions to carry the ship to England:
Notwithstanding the plaintiff, Mr. Goodall,. bad
obtained several verdids, and a numerous body of the
Underwriters had settled the loss, others persevered.
in defending the actions, and the above causes oce
cupied the attention of the Court the whqle of Fri-,
-day and Saturday, and excited a-considerable degree
of interest.
As the principle in the issue has been decided by
these successive verdicts in favour of Mr. Goodall. •
the defeat of the Underwriters is complete.—Al-
though Mr. Goodall .himself- is in the West.
Indies, his cause, far from suffering by his ab-
sence, seems to have been managed with great zeal
and ability.
Mr. Serjeant SHEPHERD, in a most animated
strain of impressive eloquence, 'vindicated his cliept
from all the aspersions of his antagonist, challeng-
ing any and all of Mr. Goodall's enemies to adduce
a single fact in impeachment of Gor;dall's com-
mercial ur naval history, or any transaction of his
life that could gloss the' sort of defence that had
been attempted.
The Underwriters produced no evidence, al-
though their Counsel, Mr. Serjeant COCKELL, con-
tended for his Clients with the utmost earnestness,
ingenuity, and ability.--These verdicts have settled
this long expensive lidgation.

—Take of common 'vinegar any quantity ; .mix a
sufficient quaniity of powdered chalk, or common
whiting wi:h it, to •destrOy the.acidity.. Tji.en let
the white matter subside, and pour, off the'insipid
.supernatant liquor; afterwards let the white powder
be dried in the open air, or by a fire. When it is
dry, pour upon it sulphuric.acid (full of . vitriol) as

the acid will not act upon them. The product is
the Acetic Acid, known in the shops by the name
