Gsn. Major Walteniforif. —..—, Sewell mat-
ter. Thi, was a cafe of further proof both with
relpe.l to the Up and a very valuable catrothich
was bound to (..:( penhlgen at the time of the cap-
ture. It appear-. 1 that the claimants had not
I•cro able to ftirnith !:te necciftry futther pool
within the limited time ordered by the Court, and
therefore an Application was made for an exten-
fion ,if the time. The Court gave the claimants
till Ow fird day of next term.
Johanna Elizabeth, —. Corti-as Mailer. In
this cafe a claim was given for a cargo of butter,
which was going. as a:ferted, to I.itbon. It ap.
reared that this property was claim. l as belong-
in
ro an American fnbjea, and it was lubmitte''d
on the part of the captors, that this perfon merely
lent his name for the purpole of covering French I
property. The Court direaed further proof to be
Blade of the cargo. within the ufual time.
Vrouw Anna ':Tat i. ,--.--, Barring Mailer.—

Rotterdam: The Court ranted the property as
claimed, but allowed the captors their expenses.

JOHNSON STUART.
In this cafe the Plaintiff bad recovered 'a thou-
fand pounds f-oni the Defendant in an affirm for a
libel. The Defendant's Attorney moved for a
Rule to thew cattle why, upon payment of the da-
mages into Coutt,the executionffiouldnot bellayed ?
Mr. ERSKINE and Mr. GARROW obferved, that
it was fingiilar the Defendant and his Attorney
Ihould be fo anxious about the damages—all they
had to do was to pay them. This, in fio, was
done, and Mr. Wylde, the Plaintiff's Attorney,
had a litn upon them for bufinefs done for the
Plaintiff. It was unneceffary to cite cafes to fhcw
that an Attorney had a lien'upon all money he
teem/eyed for his coils and charges. Even though
his client should become a bankrupt, his affignees
could not recover without paying the Attorney's
hill, and therefore the fuggeßion made in Mr. Ed
wards's affidavit, that the Plaintiff had a docket
arttek againfi him, made no difference in the cafe.
Mr. Gm: raid, the caufe of their anxiety was
very apparent. AU they were afraid of was, that
they might be called upon to pay twice. It was
true, that the execution was now iffued, but it was
in confequence of their notice of the prefent ;no-
tion. They were allied why need they be fo anxi-
ous about the Plaintiff ? He would tell them, there
was a docket buck, and they were afraid if. they
paid the Plaintiff's Attorney, they thould again be
called upon by his affignees.
The Court raid, as the execution had been ifilied
Mice the original motion in the caufe—the Ilate
of facts no longer applied to the motion, and as
the money had been paid under the execution, the
Defendant could not be called upon for it again.

relating to points of praaiee.
Jacob Cator, Efq. purfilant to appointment
en a fawner day, appeared in Court, to receive'
indgoleat, for hrolingoirritten certain letters of a
li-
l>rl~ons tendency to Mr. Jackfn, of Beckenham.
Mr. Juflice Gitoss prefaced the judgment by a
variety of general obfervation., inferring, that
although the libel in quellion was not one which
was calculated to ptomote a breach of the peace,
it was, neverthelefs• one upon which the Color
was called upon to inflia tome poniffiment. He
regretted that a Gentleman, who had, through a
long life, deported himfell in firth a manner as to
have gained the clleem of a numerous and moll
refreaable circle of friends, fhould have conde-
fcended to be bialred by the party difputes of a
pariah The Court, confidering ail the cirenm-
fiances of his cafe, and what he had alledged in
mitivation, adjudged, that he Mould pay a fine to
the King of tool. and he committed to the etiflo ly
of the Islarlhal of the Marfhalfea of this Court un-
til fuch fine be paid, which fine the Defendant im-
mediat,-ly paid, and was dilcharroal.
Mr. An ,st. on the part of Mr. Cater, imme-
diately moved, that the original letters, which
formed the fobjea of the libel. lhould be delivered
into die hands fan officer of the Court.
Mr. Juilice GROSS laid, the Court had no
power to interfere.
In the cafe of Mon and Charnock (for which fee
our report of Saturday) Mr. Juflice Gloss deli-
vered the opinion of the Court, that the direftion
actin Learned Judge (La BLANC) who tried the
cattle was right, and that no new trial ought to be
granted.
Mr. Gulps moved for a Mandamus to be di-
reled to the Town Clerk of flaflry, commanding
