RAMSGATE, JAN. £6.

The crews of the Admiral Gardner and Britannia
East-India-men, wrecked on the Goodwin Sands,
were landed last night at Deal. The ships are sink-
ing very fast, and will, no doubt, be soon swallowed
up in the sands, or go to pieces ; and we understand
that very little has been saved, as the water was pretty
well up to the lower deck before the boats could get
on board ; the third vessel, near them on the same
sands, which was supposed to be a gun-brig, is now
said by the boatmen who have been off to her, to be
a foreign vessel, and, it is conjectured, to be a Portu-
guese. The boat went near, and hailed her ; but as
no answer was received, they concluded that the crew
either were drowned on board or took to their boats,

and in that case most probably lost their lives, as
they have not been heard of on this coast or Deal.

W INTELLIGENCE.

,COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JAN. ,26.

BOYDFLL V. DRUMMOND.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL obtained a Rule to chew
cause, why the nonsuit which had been entered in this
case at Nui Prim:, should not be set aside and a new
trial had.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JANUARY 26.
MAWMAY V. GILLET.
Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN moved that a non-suit
should be entered in this case. and a new trial granted.
He briefly re-stated, that Mr. Mawman had em-
ployed Mr. Gillet to print 11, Anacharsis" and 4, Nu-
gent's• Dictionary," the paper for which, furnished I'Y
Plaintiff, Mr. Gillet had promised to insure, but ne-
glected, and it was consumed by fire. The two lead-
ing questions, he said, were now to be considered as
set at rest, viz. as to the custom of the trade to insure,
and as to Mr. Gillet having undertaken to Insure. At
the last trial, this undertaking, on the part of Defen-
dant, was proved ; but it appeared, that although Mr.
Mawman had employed Defendant to print the works
in question, the paper sent to Mr. Gillet was only part
Plaintiff's property, several other booksellers having
shares in the above-mentioned works. Mr. Mawman
purchased the paper and employed the printer ; and
the other booksellers afterwards paid their respective
shares into his hands ; so that, in fact, he had only the
management. Upon this an exception was taken,
which he now urged, whether plaintiff could recover I
the shares of the other parties ? The Learned Gen-
tleman also urged as another objection, that the edi.
tor of Anacharth had been the cause of delay ; that
he was engaged by plaintiff ; and that if he had fur.
nished copy for the last part of the work, as rapidly
as he did for the first part, the werk would have been
finished and delivered before the fire happened. Prom
this he inferred, that the loss was occasioned by in..
gularity of plaintiff's servant or agent, or any other
name by which the Editor might be called, while
acting for Plaintiff, and consequently the loss should
not be sustained by Defendant.

The latter argument was resisted by the Court, as,
if Defendant found delay to operate against the safety
of the paper, lie might have returned it, of hate given
notice to Plaintiff to that effect.
The Rule was their granted upon ?IS first point.
