COURT OF CHANCERY, MAY it.
AN2SH GA LLIOAS.
LUIS DR onitnia,o men 1/ MEW: I'. comma,
Sir SAMOA. Rosiria.v, hehalf of the Plaintiffs,
followe,; on the same side by Mr. HART and Mr. Wis:-
Tunorc, moved for an ordet on the defendant, requir-
ing hirr, t, pay Int(aCiiirt a Sum of one hundred and
forty thous std pounds cash, remaining in his hands
from the set ie of a part of the valuable ca-go of the
ship San Joan Da etista, lately captured fry two French
privateers, on lier voy..irx homew,rd-bonnd for Spain
[tont Lima, in South America, hinging a cargo con-
sis in` of diamonds, dollars, and other silver pieces,
as %yeti as of gold, to the valve of halt a million stet
ling. As the prize was approaching a French port
she was captured by a British frigate, and brought
lie.° Plymouth, without any visible owner being known
at the time.
The motion was strenuously resisted on behalf of
the defendant by Mr. LEACH, Mr. BELL, and Mr. Coe-
tassox, on the grwinns that the plaintiffs had estab.-
lisited neither right nor interest in the subject to enti-
tle them to any part of their present motion.
The LOAD Cs' ttsceurt, after a forc;ile reply from
Sir S. lt,imilly, in which he admitted that Mr. Gar-
Bias was blameless in his conduit and character, and
entitled to his just claims, but expressed surprize at
any resistance being made to the bringing the funds
into Cowl fnr the use of the right owners, proceeded
to give judgment, premising that he will-recollected'
this interesting case, which came before Government
under very peculiar circumstances, owing to our rela-
tions with Spain, at the time of the recapture, as
otherwise the great prize of course would belong to
the King or captors, or to both conjointly. _lnstead
of such appropriation the Spanish Ambassador in
London, and the Consul at Plymouth, were consult-
ed on the arrangement that was adopted for preserv-
ing the fund. His Lordship, however, in approba'
tion of the defendant's conduct, ordered that he
sLanildlave all his just allowances and demands made
t, him, and further refused the injunction prayed for,
as also the appointment of a manager or receiver of
the remainder of the cargo, and the sale of the ship ;,
all which the defendant was allowed to conduct to
the conclusion of Coe business. as he was not like many
tersons in the like situatiou, who have attempted to
'p the Puna so entrusted to them for ever in their
rids; but on the contrary offered to pay all into
met as requited.
With this qualification, his Lordship ordered the
Ind in hind, &c. to be paid into Court, for the bene-
of the right owners, when discovered.—The Mo-
rn was granted. .
COURT OF KINCO BENCH, MAY is.
- 'Us KING v. D. 1. EATON.. t •
The defendant was brought -up for judgment as
ie publisher of a blasphemous libel against-the Chris •
to under the title of Ecteilamo. •
As the officer of the Court seas about to "read the
'be!, Mr. GuissaY inteposed, and dechtred he, on the
art of the defendant \wished to spare:the Court the
taring of matter
_which was too shocking to be. re-
ated even in a-Cotirt of Justice.. for the purpose of
juice. The defendant was sell ha such au infirm
state of health, that a sentence ufiMprisoement must
to consigning him to *grave, and yet he was aware
iat the Court could not do otherwise than pass a
teavy sentence for the offence of which he had.beeo
uilty, but he trusted the Court would listen to his
Jidavit for a delay of the sentence.
The affidavit was then, read, which stated, that he
iad declined publishing the book in question, but that
',is housekeeper had, during his illness; published and
sold several copies.
The Court said, they could not forget the unbend-
ing obstinacy of the defendant, who seemed determi-
sed never to be amended by the correction which the
fawllati repeatedly applied. He had lately been in
Ncwgate, and he was again an offender. They were
aware, that he. was .but the miserable tool of some
others ; for the book in question was evidently the
production of misapplied talent, and was of powerful
mischievous effect.' . It would, be desirable, that those
berund the curtain should be brought to condign pu-
nishment.
The ATV:It/My GENERAL said, it was clear that the
defendant was but a wretched object wholent himself
to the wickedness of othet s. But, if her had any
sincere wish to Merit the mercy of the Court, he would
do well to give up. the authors. It was, however,
clear what were his views in publication.from the asf-
arca tisement or the sheet of the boa k in which he stated
his former misconduct as sacrifices to the cause of
fiberty, and avowed his intention •of going on in the
game course, while a type could be fund.
Alter a short pause, Mr. GLIINLY stated that ,the
defendant had agreed to disclOse the name of the
amber, which he handed over to the Attorney General.
Ph: judgment upon the defendant was then respi-
red, end he was ordered to be brought up again OR a
future day.
Mar 15.--Tue ZING V. it. DRAM '
The ATTORNEY GENERAL moved the judgment of
the Court on the defendant in this case, a respectable
hop-factor, who had been convicted of assaulting a
Revenue Officer in the discharge of his duty. The
circumstances of the case were noways interesting or
aggravated, and the Court sentenced the defendant
to be imprisoned one month, and to pay a fine of aCSO
tifiti the King.
THE ZING V. NATHANIEL RAMSDEN.
•This defendant was hi-Logi-a up for assaulting and
obstructing a Custom-house Officer, in the execution
ofhis duty at Plymouth. He Made no defence'at the
trial ; but put in an affidavit new, stating that' he
yielded, the moment lie knew ae authority of the
ono-. The seizure was of two hundred`oranges in
a bag, e hiclislie swore be received in payment of a
debt. He had served the king as a foot soldier 'for
many years.
Mr. Scauterr addressed the Court in Mitigation.
The ATT(IENEY GENERAL supported the prosecu-
tion.—The Court adjudged the defendantto of weeks
imprisonment in the Mai shalsea.
THE KIND V. ',WILLIAM MATHEW&'

Ess-x, was brought- up for altering the
