• L4W IMELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC Is.
• It ART,' F.: V. CAMPBVI.L.
This was an action brought by the Captain and
Owner of the ship Thalia, to recover a sum of money
for freight, tinder the cpvenants of a charter-party.
The charter-party provided that the Thalia was to
sail to, and deliver her cargo at, the islands of St.
Thomas and St. Croix ; ani, an delivering her cargo
at those distinct ports, she was to take in an homeward.
bound cat,•t,o under the direction of the defendant's
,
'agent at muse ports, and was to receive the s ime rate
Ad ft eight as was paid to other ships sailing at the SUM
time ; or, if no ship should then be taking in a cargo,
at the same rate cf freight as had been paid to the yes-
sel last quitting those ports. The Thalia arrived at
St. Thomas's, and delivered that part of her cargo,
which was consigned to that port. On enquiry, the
Captain was informed there was no probability of his
being able to obtain any part of his homeward-bound
cargo at St. Croix. Capt. Hardie, on receiving this
information, took that part of the cargo consigned
to St. Croix, to that island, in a smaller vessel, and,
when there, consulted with the defendant's agent, Mr.
Colquhoun, resident there, what would be the most,
prudent line of conduct for him to adopt ; who highly:
approved cf what lie had already done, and advised'
him, by all means, to get a cargo, if pos,ible, at St.
Thomas's. '1 he Captain accordingly returned to St.
Thomas's, and, on inquiry, found there was no vessel
then in the harbour which was preparing to sail, and
that the last vessel which had sailed was called the Isa-
bella. It also appeated that the fitightage, which he
could obtain would not be equal to that paid to the Isa-
bella, by a sum of 11 per lb. on tobacco, which WAS the
commodity the Thalia was to take.on board. Under
these circumstances, the Captain informed Mr. Calque
houn that he mild not take in a lading, unless hewnuld
give him a certificate, undertaking that the freighters
should pay that difieri.. ce. The freight, at the price
at which freightage was, when the cargo was taken
in. at St. Thomas's, amounted to 0211455. 4d. ; the
additional freight, in proportion to what had been
paid to the Isabella, amounted to 8305 6s. 3d. more.
This sum, however, the defendant lefesed to pay, al.
'edging that the plaintiffs had not fulfilled the condi.
tions Of the charter-party, by which they were direc.
ted to proceed to St. Thomas's and St. Croix, deliver
a part of their cargo at each port, and take in a !tonne.
ward-bound cargo at ea; h, under the direction of the
freighter's agent. It appeared, however, that the de.
fendants had no other agent except Mr. Ca' ilquhoun,
and that the Captain had acted under his direction
in taking in his whole cargo at St. Thomas's.
The Jury, therefore, under the direction of his
Lerdship, f mild a verdict for the plaintiff, damages
£305 6s. 3d.
