}RUH COURT Or Al".::R ALTY, MARCH zz.

An Arpcal was trade at the condemna
tion of a void captured in the North Seas, and
belong;ng to the enemy of this country. It ap-
pearedfli: ''riled from Dunkirk on a voyage to the
coafi of Ireland for fiat, and was captured on her
return. The King's Advocate contended the
ought to he centifeated, as from the tellimnny of
she Captain and Mate it was evict,nt the Iva-,
enemy's property, and was built at Dunkirk, to
which port the was bound, though it had been
contended her real deftination was to Litbon ; that
her touching at Gluckfladt was a mere pretest to
give colour, the proper owner refitting at Dun-
kirk. On thefe grounds he rub:rim:a that the
condemnation was good.
Dr. I.nwaescr, for the owner, contended that
though it had been proved the wasetnployed, dur-
ing two voyages, by the enemy, yet in this pre-
fent one, the was the property of a neutral, having
been fold to a Danith fubjeZt in the month of Fe-
bruary 1799. The mailer, though he had Rated
the was built fomewhere in Flanders, did not deny
that the was at prefent neutral. Her touching at
Gluck fiadt was in order toilet the neceirarypapers ;
her owner reeding there, and being a Danilh
fubjed. Whatever might have been her previ-
ous occupation, her prefent one was of a donief-
t;c nature. being employed folely for the purpofe
of procuring fifh ; and her real deltination, as it
had been verified on oath by the miter in an-
firer to the interrogatories with refped to tlevoy.
age, was afcettained clearly to be for Litbon.
He trufted, therefore, that nothing aliened on
the other fide would induce the Court to confirm
the fer.tencc of condemnation ; but that the weight
•of evidence on behalf of the owner being fo flrong
as to her neutrality, they would order her to be
reltored. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The htxc's ADVOCATE fubmitted, that further
*proof of her neutrality thould be !hewn before the
Court could come to a determination; as there
was confiderable doubt that her touching at
Gluckfiadt was ss ith a colourable view. _ _ _

Sir WILLIAM SCOTT faid, better proof of her
neutrality muff be produced before he could make
up his-mind as to the judgment he fhould pro-
nounce. The papers found on board Rated the
Icemen. to be Danes; the Captain in his anfwers,
had declared he'did not know to what country
they belonged, but that they fpoke the Dutch and
•Flemifb language; this had a furpicious appear.
ante, as the papers fpecified that which was not
tree; and there were fevcral othcr circumftances
in the cafe which rendered it very doutbful. He
bad examined all the papers, and was of opinion
further proof thoald be had.
The cafc was ordered to ftand Over for a fur-
ther hearing.
