HAZARD and Co. the CONTRACTORS, solicit
attention to the present
BRILLIANT 5C11E311.74
Which not only retains all the late popular attractiont, but em-
braces for the first time since the Establishment of Lotteries, and
before

this licen e, or more properly speaking, guarantee flour
spoliation ? From the King of England, or fr.= his re-
presentative, which is one and the same thing. And it
may he inquired,why was recourse had to such a step ?
Because the preservat;on of thousands of lives were
then conjectnred at involved in the measure. But it
will be Argued, that ro authority, however potent, has
the power of violating this far-famed charter, which
having been infringed on, renders every hypothesis that
may be brought forward in support of the step alto- -
gether unavailing. Let us see, however, how far this
said eighth section has been violated. The Government
charters the Almorah to proceed, not to China, where
the Company have 6 the sole and exclusive trade,' but
to the nearest port, which happens to be Batavia, and a
Lforeign port ! We will insist that the Governor could,
antler the peculiar circumstances of the case, have even
sent the vessel on to China, and not to the nearest port,
had such been the most advisable way to have acted.—
Provisions were becomiug scarce, the harvest wore a
forbidding aspect, and the Government felt compelled
to charter the Almorab. In the meantime,- however,
en the astonishment of the colonists, the once-languishing
(Atli yield a productive and luxuriant harvest, and
the famine with. which we were threatened has been
.providentially averted ; but this produces Kt) varia-
tion' in the case. The island of Java, being under the
dominion of the Dutch authorities, cannot possibly
be subject to the rule of the East India Company.
and the latter, therefore, dare rot, we should
presume, think of blocking up a friendly port.—
By the present charter it would appear, that " it is not
lawful for any person to ship, carry, or put on board
any ship in the East Indies, any tea." The absurdity
of such a clause must be obvious to the most shallow
understanding, if it is to be received in an indefinite
sense, In the event of this clause obtaining universal
sanction, it must follow that the British Parliament
has the power of shutting up al! foreign ports, in those
halcyon days, even to its own distressed Governments.
This would be profound legislation with a vengeance !
Has not the Governor of this or any other colony, itt
cases of emergency, equal right with that of the
American skipper, who can run to any port, even to
China, and take horse a cargo of tea ? Then why should
it be premised that a British Governor is not armed
with sufficient authority to difpitch a vessel for needful
supplies to the first port, admitting that to be a foreign
port? We should hope, for the honour of the Briush
Crown, that the very high authority of a Governor-in-
Chief has not yet dwindled away to the level of a
Lieutenant in the Navy, however respectable we may
hold such rank; for, if it should' tarn out that the pre-
sent seizure be a lawful prize, then .most decidedly
his Majesty's representative comes under the surveil-
lance of a Pust-Captain or Commander. -
Java may have been within the lialits of the audio..
city of East. India Company, and while it so con-
tinned the clause in question would bold goad, except

not requisite to penettate icto the only judgment that
can follow an act so inauspicious and unjustifiable!
• For the lam maim of tie public it would be as well
to ascertain up n what authority the Slaney has at-
tempted this overt act of violence, within the harbour
of Port Jackson ? It may be answered, that the au-
thority of the men-of-war is very great—nay, almost
unlimited ; but yet, it is to be rt collected, for the ends
of ptf.slic justice, that there ate certain lines of demarca-
tion, beyoud *Lich the bulwarks of old England dare
not obtrude. The civil law, thanks be to the wisdom
and energy of Our forefathers, assumes to itself the pre-
cedency of the mi.itary and maritime laws—V-e c must
bow to the sovereign dictum of our civil code. We have
no hesitation, therefore, in rendering public the enun-
ciation, that Captain Mitchell had no power to make
any prize cf the Almorah, neither can he be warranted
in retaining possession, within the beads of Port Jack.'
son There might have been a glimpse of a successful
issue in a legal contest, had the Slaney fallen in with the
Almorah at sea; but the supposition must not for a
moment be fostered, that that which would constitute
lawful prize at sea, must necessarily become a, rash tful
seizure in port ; in illustration of which doctrine w e beg
to lay before the public the following case, one r 'thee
in point :—ln the ) ear 1819, 'a fine ship of 1,200 tons, .
belonging to Scott and Co. of Java, took in cargo at
the Mauritius: her name is 'reported to, base been the
Shawfield. The Magicienne frigate, Captain Purvis,
was then riding in Port Louis. When the Shawfield
set sail, the frigate also weighed. As soon as Captain
Purvis observed the Shawfield was without the reach
of the batteries, he bore down upon, and seized her as
his lawful prize, returning to port with bis booty. She
was condemned by a Court of Vice-Admiralty for a
breach of the navigation laws, in having taken on board
goods, in direct contraveotion to the spirit of the East
India Company's Chatter, and was sold. A reversal,
however, of the judgment of the Court took place ; but
not before the Louse had been ruined by the unjusti-
fiable act of a British Commander ! . In this case Cap-
tain Put vis was well aware of the danger he would in-
tcur in outraging the batteries, in attempting a seizure
in post ; and even when the capture was made, on law-
ful ground ; yet, by a Court of Justice, the conduct of
Captain Purvis appeared in the most disadvantageous
light, at least as far as legality was included.
