• Boutonms, Aran. 17.—This morning at feven
o'clock, the wind blowing herb at E. N. E. the Ad-
toiral gave orders that the veHels in the roads lhould
come into harbour. The part of the flotilla Rationed
in the roads of Arnbleteuie and Vimcreux, entered
the port of Boulogne. The left of the line had orders
to hand, at a o'clock, for Etaples. A flat bottomed
boat, and fifteen gun boats, forming this divition, had
a pretty war engagement with fix of the enemy's
frigate.. We did not lute a man. The flat bot-
tomed boat had tier top mall carried away. .A hall
fell on board two of the dun-boars. We could ob.
ferve from the lhore,that a great number of (hots Bruck
the enemy's frigates, auJ that a Ihel. hurl nn the
bcwfprit of one of them. They tacked and flood off'.
The flotilla entered this harbour with the excep-
tion ..1 a dirtfiun of gunboats, which the Admiral
thought proper to leave in the roads during the
sight-
The weather becoming flormy, he hoihed a fignal
for them to come in. The enemy's cruizers dilap.
peered, and hood over to the Englifli coati.
Oar Wilier: are daily afloat. They manage the
oars, and built and lower the yards as well as the
oldea failors ; and why Ihould they not ? The gun-
boats are not more difficult to manage than the Ro-
man gallies were ; and we all know that, the Roman
legions were as capable rat mantruver ing rdick as of
fighting on a plain.
The expedition to oflentatioufly announced by the
Englifh, and which rice:Amu:el an embargo, has va-
nailed in fmoke. Few Ipenacles are ft intereiling
as that of frail boats an open lea forming .1 line in

'Clic final hearing of thi, important cafe came nn
Oil, day. The linnntirablc THOMILR ERSKINE WAS
heard in reply, which he did nearly in the following
manner :

.....
" My Lords, I (hall detain your Lordfliips as
fliortly as the great lice of the quellion, from the
raft importance of the object s which it embraces,
will permit me to do in jollier to my clients. From
what had fallen from my Learned Friends on the
other fide of the Bar, it is indeed incumbent on me
to fay a few words. The judgment of Sir Jofeph
Jey kill in the cafe of Ratko( and Parhans does not at
all ernharrafs me. Not that 1 prefume to fay what
impieffion it may make upon the mind of your Lord-
(hips, nr even to hint at what may poffibly be your
Lordfhips' lodgment in the cafe. My Learned
Friend, the Attorney General, however, has teemed
to red a good deal of his cafe upon it. Notwith•
(landing the great reverence in which I mull need--
Cody hold your Lordfhips in your high and digni-
fied official fituations, dill I fhould be extremely
furry to compliment even your Lordfhips at the cx•
pence of a great and learned Judge, who is now no
more. The prerogative of the Crown, however, is
now too well eflabliffied for that judgment to (hake
it ; or, I hope, induce your Lordfhips to b. dire6ted
by filch a &canon, with all its concomitant circum-4
dances. In fart, that learned Judge was not fo well
qualified to form an opinion upon the cafe as your
Lordfhips now are, from the great variety of pence•
dents which you have before you. There were tome
parts of the fpeech which I had the honour to ad-
drefs to your Lordfhips, of which my Learned Friends
on the other fide of the Bar have not taken any no-
tice. The unquellionable prerogative of the Crown
was declared in the aiath of Charles the Second, but
that did not prevent the Judges of the Common
Pleas from afterwards giving their opinion' as to the
right of exchtlion in the cafe of Miller and Taylor;
and I hope, my. Lords, that from a confederation of
that cafe and others which have finee occurred which
your Lordfhips may recoiled, you will not fuller an
impreffion to be made 'upon your Lordfhips' mind,
you will not be fettered in your judgment by the
, idea of a former decifion, where fraud was manila,
and when printing" was then in its infancy, and it
might be deemed mote neceffirry to enforcereftraints.
I do not mean to fay that when the neceffity and
policy of she cafe exids no longer, the King's prero-
gative molt inevitably end ; but this I will lir, that if
there is no neceffity in thecafe, and that it is abfolutely
contrary to found policy, I am inclined to believe
that your Lordfhips mutt entertain fume doubts as
to the propriety.of its continuance. When I Mall',
have concluded my few obfervations at your Lord-
Bar, it is not likely that there will then be any
opportunity to gain any further information on the
mac cafe before you, though the great learning
which your Lordfhips pallet's may tugged analagous
cares which do not occur to my mind, from which
your Lordfhips' wifdom may illuftrate the cafe more
clearly. Yet, if I (ball he fo happy as to infufe any
ttaliinalile doubt into your Lordfhips' mind, I hope
and troll that, from a confideration of that doubt
and of the true policy of the quedional your Lord-
(hips will be difpofed- to prevent the continuance of
the injunelion. The Attotney General prefented us
as int: 'laces ; furely, my Lords, no Scotfman can,
fiiice the Union, be fairly called an intruder in the
E'l2,lllh market, when they have equally the anther'-
, lit y of the King to manufatture. My learned Friend,
Mr. Richards, in denying our right, has made lonic
I reference to Wicklitfe's Bible ; that, however, was
clearly a cafe which could not by any means fop.
port him. \Vickliffe's Bible was a manufcript ; it
was written in the year 13So, and printing was not
invented until about the year taco. There was not
any authentic printed edition of the Bible for many
years after ; not until after the accedion of King
James, ;and to the complciian of that Bible every
weal. and learned Divine was called in to alTift ; and
to great were the pains that were taken on that cc.
cation, that the work was years in hand before it
was ready for the public. From thenceforward
there was nn authentic copy of the Bible. My cli-
ents have the King's authority for printing Bibles, as
Well as the parties on the ether fide. Yes, but lays
Mr. Richards, "you (hail not print Englilh Bibles."
What ! (hall his Mildly King George the Third be
compelled to authorife a fpuriuus edition of the Bi•
ble ; Bruit he be tied up to a variety in Bibles ? Can
it be liippoftd that for the benefit of the King's
minter in England and that of the two Univertitics,
the King's printer in Scotland may print any thing
as a Bible but the real Bible In common fenle this
cannot be ; in judice to the honour of the King we
cannot tuppole that he would fliffifr it. No ;
tionably he meant the fame "y ;he words of the pa
tents ; for in one lie lays " Bibles," 49,1 in the other
•• !loly Bible•," words eqii4l:y of the lime imp•' t.
thtu,gh d:ficreat in the formality of the expreffion,
for esery 0, tai..n intuit topnofe that a genuine edi-

Se-m.l2nd, .t hat mull be done under The great realpf
that part of the kingdom, but yet, the locality of the,
grant wohld by no means confine the tale. There
was a grant of a falmon fifhery at Aberdeen, which•
was tweed:ally made under the great real of Scotland';
and I believe that no man would prefurne to fay that
it would be illegal to fend a Scots 141111011, one from
that Filhcry, into the Englifh market. If your Lord.
flips, therefore, are not of opo,ion that there are words
of esclufion in the Patent, litlficient to outi the King's
Pi inter in Scotland from any eight to fell in England,
and that an Englithman's right is alto limited from
the circunallance of the Great Seal of England being
affixed to hi. Grant, which I do not think it poffible
that you can do, I mull then contend, with fubrnif-
lion to your Lordfhipt, that my clients are entitled
to fill in every part of the United Kingdom. Sup-
pofe, my Lords, that there was no King's Printer
in England, will it be faid, that in that cafe a pot-
ion who was duly authorized to print Bibles in Scot-
land would not be junified in fending them into
England, or that they might not legally make
their way into the Englilh market, notwithaand-
ing the circumtlance of their being authorifed to he
printed under the local feat of that pat t of the empire?
Would his Majelly's fubjeas in England be, in conk-
quence of that, deprived of the benefit of read-
ing the Bible? I humbly venture to fay that this
Houk would not, in that cafe, deny them the pri.
allege of buying a Scott Bible for the advance-
ment of their knowledgkin Religion. If that be
not denied, then, in the prefent inttance, I think the
validity of the Seal can hardly be called in quellion.
The words which are made ate of in the Scots Pa-
tent are " to advance the Art of Printing," I mould
think, however, that the purity of the Edition was
an object of much more ferious consideration. Ent
both thefe objeuffs are accornplifised, printing is ad-
vanced to the full as great perfeaion in Scotland as
in England, and the edition of the Bible printed in
Scotland is as pure and as corral as any that are
printed in England. The Patent then goes on to Rate
generally, that he (ball have authority to print and
reprint fetch works, and to prevent all others, whe-
ther natives or grangers, from printing the fame
works within that part of the Empire. If your
Lordfhips will be at the trouble to look at the. Patent
to the King's Printer in England, you wiil, find that
the terms are esaaly the fame. From the similarity
of the Patents, and from the reciprocity which was
efiablithed at the Union, I think that it mull appear
that each of thefe two-authorifed perfons is entitled
to fell within the fame market with the other. There
was another point to which I beg to call your Laid.
(hips' attention, and which I believe I have not men-
tion to your Le:rdfhips in any former fpeech, that is,
that if it was the intention of the Royal Grantor to
preclude his Printer in Scotland from exporting thefe
works, whether for the advancement of the art of
printing, the promotion of a knowledge of religion,
or as a furtherance of his own benefit and advantage,
he would have mentioned it in his grant ; he would
have faid, you (hall gn thus far and no farther. If
a man has a right to pint ; that he mill alto have a
right to publifh and to fell, is an inference war-
ranted by law and tcafon. Why, therefore, my
Lords, (hall we fuppofe that he muff be compelled
to look at another man's Patent, in order to after-
tain how tar his right to publifh or to fell may ex-
tend, or to know within what limits it is bound ? If
I was a lawyer in Scotland, and was afked how far
that Patent would extend without knowing any thing
of the Patent in England, I would have no hefita-
lion in laying to them " You mull print only in
Scotland ; but, as your Patent has beat granted
fence the Union, you may fell in any part of Great
Britain." If this were not the cafe, as I have already
mentioned to your Lordfhips, of what avail was it that
the Sovereign had bellowed on the King's Printer
in Scotland the grant of his authority for printing
Books of Common Prayer which are not read, and
therefore cannot be fold in shot part of the king-
dom? With great humility I mull beg to press
upon the minds of your Lordthips, iiitt in my opi-
nion, infigniticant as that may be in this cafe, a man's
refiraints Should certainly be mentioned in the patent
along with his grants. How was a man to know,
when the King outhunted him to circulate a hook,
that it was not lawful for him to fell it every where!
The prohibitory words in each of the patents pur•
ported only to prevent others from importing from
foreign pars beyond the fear. This I coi.fider, my
Lords, to he fairly done for the proteElien of trade,
within the kingdom ; but I cannot think it jail, and,
therefore, I conclude, that it was not the intention of
the Crown to relittain any ',won in Scotland from
extending the tale of any antliorifed publication into
England, after the Uni, r. between toe two canaries,
without advertiling tint nf it the time that
he granted the authotity to him to publish. I fliouid
know but little, my Lords, of the law, the
the policy of this country, if I did not know how to
refpal a decree oldie Omit of Chancery. The rules
which g: vein that Conti, I know, have been model
