ADMIRALTY COURT, Jan. 14.
THE VENERABLE-COLLISION.

This was an action by the owners of the brig New-
castle Trader, against the barque Venerable, to recover
for damages suffered by the brig in a collision between
the two vessels in the night of the 11th of July last.
The brig was of 79 tons, coal laden, bound from Middle-
borough to Rouen. The barque was of 379 tons, and
was proceeding to Hull from a voyage from North
America. The wind was west-north-west, or west-by-
north. The brig had the wind free, and was coming out
of Hasleborough Gap, when the barque, which was close
hauled en the larboard tack, on a course north half-west,
was reaching to the north. The case of the brig was,
that, on seeing the Venerable, she kept to windward, in
order to go under the barque's stern (having the wind
free, it was at her option to go to windward or to lee-
ward), supposing that the brig would keep her reach ;
but, instead, the helm of the Venerable was put down,
and she shot into the brig's larboard quarter.
After hearing Dr. Addams and Dr. Curteis in support
of the case, without hearing 1)r. Bayford and Dr. H. J.
Nicholl for the Venerable,
Dr. LUSHINGTON said that the two gentlemen from
the Trinity-house (who assisted the Court upon the
nautical points) concurred with him in opinion, that the
brig had been in the wrong throughout the whole pro-
ceedings, and therefore he dismissed the action with costs.
