ADMIRALTY COURT, JULY 16.
this day the Right lion. Sir WILLIAM SCOTT
proceeded to the adjudication of the !lowing cafes :
Miry Wright, jengenfen maiter.This vetted, under Ameri-
can colours, with a cargo of tobacco, in the profecutino of her
voyage from Norfolk, in Virginia, to Flufhing, was captured by
the private Blip of war Speculatloo, John May. Commander, and
brought to Guernfey. It was contended by his Majtfty's Advo •
sate that this was a mere colourable transfer of this Profiles Gip,
for the purpofe of protealog her from capture in cafe of battik'. s
between Fruice and Nona. a rumour having reached America to
that effect. The Court was clearly of that opinion, and con-
demised the Blip as a Droit of Admiralty; reftored the matter's
private Adventure; ordered further proof as to the property of
the ergo, and diredted the capton cspcnces to be paid out of the
proceeds of the sip.
Graff Bernitorff, Knudfen maßer —Anna Swenina, Harden
matter.—ln there two Molds cafes the cargoes were tenured as
claimed, with freight and eapeoces, the sips having been previ-
*oily reftored.

Herodes, Groningen maiter.—ln this cafe further proof was di
reeled as to tle propan y of tb e Ship antic:trio.
The Court alfo dlipored of fevcral cafes of Prufflan property,
' fume of which it condemned to the Crown and others to the captors.
Jule Ill.—This day the Right Hon. Sir W. Scurx
proceeded (on the motion of his Majeftv's Advocate)
to difpufe of a great number of cafes of Pt uffian pro.
perry, Come of which were condemned to the Crown,
and others to the captors.
Couer.—Benjamin Franklin, —.,
maßar.—This was a cafe of pilotage. It appeared
that a demand was made of fixty guineas for piloting
the flip in quellion from Cowes to Flufhing, or Ca.ll-
- according to an agreement entered into between
the Pilot and Mailer, but which was refuted, in con.
fequence of the Pilot having drove the flip on the
(ands, through ignorance or negled in the execution
thereof, whereby a confiderable expenfe was created
in getting her off. The Cuunfel were proceeding to
enter into the merits of the cafe, when lite Learned
Judge held, that he was clearly of opinion the Reboil
was not maintainable, on the ground that no Britifh
fubjeft had a right to atria in the conduit and naviga-
tion of (hips to the enemy's ports—but gave no cogs.

We learn from Newry, under date the 7th
that the Wickham Cruizer, Capt. Joes FULLARTON,
which had been ordered out to cruize for an Ameri
can !hip that W4S to attempt to carry off paffengers
from that country to America, without licence, and
contrary to Aft of Parliament, had the gond fortune
to fall in with her, in company with the Rofs, and
had carried her life into Newry, the night before the
date of our letter. She is a fine (hip, of nearly 400
tons burthen, and will be a gond prize, as it is Paid
Government are determined to put the law in force
againtl her. She had on board ttB perfons.
The following is an extra& of a letter from Capt.
koss. of the Afteon, dated off Peterhead, July 12 :
am happy to inform you of the Adleon and Hunter being fo
far on their paffne home, as you are well acquainted, I make no
doubt, before this time, of the two 44 gun (hips being in Green
land; the Hunter and I were very near them at one time thick
weather favoured lit, and we took the ailvairage of Turning the
fialp among the ice; they took the Dingwall at that time, and by
the information I had from a Hamburgher the day following, there
were eighteen fall of Englith (hips along with the two higates,
which I fear are enptured (hips. The old Manchefter, Faueon
berg, Rodney, and I nvernef., were very near the frigates, but I hope
they crape& as they got their boat. ahead, and towed the (hips
awitiogft the is I left them in lat. y 6. N. long., or 8 Eaft."

The Matting is a fuller account of a fatal acci-
dent at f.iverpool, which was briefly fisted in our
PaperofThurfday :—A pan y, eonfifling of Mr. Brad-
ford (of the firm of M'Call, Bradford, and Co.), Mr.
Phillips (of the firmed Keogh and Phillips), Mr. John
Orr, Mr. Evans (of the firm of J. and E. Evans),
Mr. Frac Cafey, (in the houfe of M'Call and Co.),
and Mr. Thomas Casey, his broiler, with &boatman
named Roberts. went in a pleafure boat on an excur-
fi,n down the river, at Liverpool. on Sttnday lad.
They were returning about 8 o'clock in the evening,
and were in the aEI r• . tacking to make George's Duck
Baron, when a Sudden and violent fquall came on
while the boat was in (lay : the boatman, terrified at
the apparent dangt.r, and only on his own
safety, imprudently quitted the helm, and grafpcd a

TIMM Il&WRIS e.,JOSVPM IIAWKEY.
13,ith the plaintiff and defendant are Military•Azy
coutrement.makerr, refiding within a dozen doors of
each other, in Piccadilly. The action was for han.
der, and was tried by a Special Jury
Mr. GAIROW for the Plaintiff, Rated, that it was
wholly tinneceleary for him to enlarge on the impost-
lance of character, to gentlemen who were to feeling-
ly and hnnourably jealous of their own. The plien-
tiff had formerly employed the defendant, and after
the latter had quitted that fervice, he thought fit to
commence a Chancery fuit. in which he elamied up-
wards of 7001. of his mailer. To the bill the plain-,
tiff put in an anfwer, and in ennfeqtience, the defen-
dant thought proper to afcribe to this gentleman
foul clime of perjury, toting at the fame time other
exprettons tending to vilify his character. In order
to give Olen to the krious charge of talfehood, on
the molt folemo occafion, the detendant lint notke
to the plaintiff, that he had prepared a bill of indict-
ment, to charge him with perjury before the Grand
jury ; and this queridcas fervart had the impaderce
to crud a :adage to his mailer, telling him, that he
might lizru:e the copy hef,re it was relented. I:
would be for the Jury to oi,ermine what damages
timid be affigned in a cafe of tbi, 7rfs nature, and
the Learned Counfel was confident, Ciat the decifion
could not be in more proper hands.
Richard Cannady depofed, that he met the defen-
dant in Southamptem.flreet, Covent Garden, who
addreffed him in thi, language :—" When have you
teen Tommy? He has tiled me very ill; he is a great
rogue and a villain." To which the defendant added,
" I have had Tommy up again ; I have had him to
the Old Bailey." On being crofs.examined, he Paid,
that this calumny was uttered about eight months
ago; and the witnefs, being afked as to his own oc-
cupation, Paid, that his wife was a laundreci, and he
Ocfated is carrying oat the clothe,.
Robert White, fervent to Hawker, gave evidence,
that the Defendant laid to him," You have forfworn
you: fell, as your mallet has done before: he has
cheated people, and I will expiate him whenever I
have it in my power." On his crofs.examination, the
witnefs being queltioned as to his own conduit to the
Defendant, obferved, that he was obliged to be want-
ing in civility, becaufe Mr. Hawkes would have
thrown him into the ftreet ; but he did not fay that
" his mailer was as honell a man as you, Joe Hawkey,"
' nor did lie add, " If you will tome out, Joey, I will
pull your note, or leather you."
John Hunt, alto limn% to the Plaintiff, depofeds
that he was at • public honk in Air areet, Piccadilly,
when the Defendant accolled him—" How does Ho.
neat do? You mull know I mean little Tommy
Hawke', a great villain, and a religious rogue, who
has rubbed me." On his crofs•examination, be raid,
that this did not pats at the Cat and Bagpipes, but at
the Crown.

The Rev. George Burden, aTenting Miniaer,
gave evidence to the fame effeet.
The bill and anfwer in Chancery were then pro-
poled to be put in as evidence, but rejeaed by his
Lbrdthip.
Mr. Denim's', for the Defendant, (ALL that it was
a very trumpery affair ; and the nue cattle of all this
irritation teemed to originate in the proceedings in
equity, which wete very likely to make any man angry
who was concerned as a party, however acceptable
they might be to the Counfel and Solicitors in the
caufe ; and his client was not the lets fubjeCt to have
his pall-ins inflamed, becaufe the fuit he bad Com-
menced w-t 31.1 probably be his ruin. The Learned
Counfel Paid, that the only words attlionable were
thole which charged the Plaintiff with the crime of
petjiti y, for on all the other exprellionz tome fpecial
damage molt be (hewn, and thi' had not even been
pretended by the Counfel for the Plaintiff.—Verdid
for the Plaintiff, tol.

HUTCHINSON V. NMI AND CO.

This was an itfue from the Court of Chancery, ar.d
the quellion to be tried was, whether there was a bows
_fide debt of tool. due to the petitioning creditor on the
clime of a bankrupt of the name of M'Can. %%ra-
nches were examined at great length with refpett to
the chargesin the bill of the petitioning creditor, which
amounted to tc6l.

Lord Ei.i.setioaoucut, (to the Jury)--4, ne
only quettion before you is, if theic were a Lona fide
debt of the amount contended fur, or Wale debt were
manufaitured afterwards? Lf you. in your judgment.
conclude, that the claim was railed from 941. to up-
wards of to_l. for the purpole of fabricating this
bankruptcy, you will giro your verdie for the Deter,-
danst ; if you think it was a genuine debt, you will
find fiir the Plaintiff."

The Jury having withdrawn for about half an hour.
delivered verdi,±t for the DcfendAn;,

HOSKINS AND OTHERS, ♦/SICH[IS OF 1110 H TOM,

This was an anion bmugl•t by the anignees of a
Bankrupt to recover back azgil. of the Defendant,
the payment of which he had obtained of the Bank-
rupt after he had committed an met of Bankruptcy,
which was clearly proved to have been the cafe.—
The Defendant bad dripped the Bankrupt of every
thing he had in the world, and was under the necef-
Gfy of giving him Eve guineas to enable him In re-
turn to Mancheller, his place of abode, which be
had left mod come to London to avoid Isis creditors.
The Jury found a verdia for the Plaintiff—Da.

me% to be divided between all the creditors, and the
Defendant mua take his dividend under the Coat.
