Iib:RUING V. rtustf:m: Asp cc.

This was a., Pt on up-11 • bie‘ch vat tontrart.
The Plaintiff and another were ovine!. is two
ships, the li.ittolk ~.d Leda. of L"ndnn. sioal.y oc-
cupied in the West Loth trade. *tot the Delen.lin..
West India merchants, if I,ding in London t mad thd .
Wien was brought by the former so recover tins
frvightsge of the two vessel• shove gamed, which were
alleged to bate been engaged to go out to Jamaica,
with promise of the Defendants to process fur these
fall cargoes of West India produce homeward I.
London, at a certain rate of freightage; het that
when both vessels arrived in the bleed of Jamaica,
their Captains applied so she persons to whom they •
were referred by t►e Defeadants, bat being suable
to procure any cargo. were obliged to return to /Coe
land in holiest, islth Some eterption as to tho Leda,
for which a email part of a cargo outdating of log..

abitement of she Plaintiff's claim.
Mr. Serjesill Copley staled the case finlike Plain•
tiff, and he was aided by Messrs. Marryat, F.
P.•l-
- and Campbell, and the substance of thecae.
as sustained in evidence was, that the Defendants,
who are eminent West India merchants, its Lord.%
and possessed of ezfensies estates sad having groat
iolleence in the Wand of Jamaica, bed. In the year
1613. chartered I ships in London, for the par•
pose of btinging home %%est I oldie produce; and that
in that year ►it of those ships returned to Krsglatirt
with foil cargoes. In the season of 1816-17, they
win entered into contracts olds the Plaistetf, en-
gaging to use their hest interest is Jetnsica to pine
vide for she Plaiistitra ships, Leda an•l'. lb. oat:
and home with felt cargoes; is „r
which t,e fendan•s sere to receive 3t Me c••nt. upon
t►e amount of the freight. At the time this twee-
ment was e she Defondatits hhd ttikett oir
other ships, namely, she Milano.... Sir Godfrey
Webster, the D iresthea. Fo.ter, and Monarch for the
same purpose, in two .4 which ships she Defendants
themselves were past outlets. They ships all er..

iendent., until In conscgaentre of this tailor. the
Plaintiffs brought their sedan to more/ commie
cation.
Mr. ScAutcrrr conducted the woo for the Wend.
ants, aided by Mr. GURIEY and Mr. Cuirvv. Aed
the plea set up on this aide was, that the Detendants
had by no means engaged to procure csrsaes for the
Plaintiff's ships, nor to do any thing more thou to
give them the best recomumnsdations in their power
to their friends those; which they hail douse; and
that their fader. in pestering such cargoes arose
partly from the shortness of the crops at Black River
and Savannah Le Mar—the places to which they
sere booed, and where the property and conneaione
of the D•fendents were situated ; partly from tno
, late arrivals of those ten vessels st their destined
laerts—and ultimately from the depression of the
rates of freight's., noise( to the disrontinuiore of
the esr, sod the somber .1 vessels disease/rad front
' the truaspert service, several of which arrived early
guar Jamaiai sod lowered the prices of freights.
The Plaistiff urged In reply, that the nose of the
late ■►rival of these ships at Jamaica we•. that they
were detained three months in the liver Thames; and
that, although the Defesdents had full reason to
kung of the hailer. of crops is Jamaica, sad bad
also sent out their own ships lug previews to the
sailing of t►e Pleintiles •easels, by which they en..
joyed the priority of interests is Janeiro, to the
prejudice of the Plaintiff's vessels, yet they had
never commenicated those circomstances to the I'laioe
previous to the sailing of his malls: and that
of she abide hips sent oat by the Deffradanu,
only two had °bulged fall cargoes.
On the port of the Defendants it was again urged,
that the agreement into which they had voter's! coati'
not he construed as a charter-party, whereby they
would be obliged two furnish freight or pay the
amount. That they bad silly promised to give their
beat interest ; and they bad done so bona fide; and
if their expectations had failed, it was not imputable
to them, bet arose from the we have already
stated.
The COIL, JUSTICI, in charging the Jury, was of
opinion, that a merchant's catering into such an
agreement as the present, did not bind himself to
promo a cargo as a freighter. Ile barely engaged
to see his best interests, 'which lie was bound to do,
before he could be 'elided to receive the 3 per cent.
for whkh he bad rtipolated. Regard. however,
most be bad to the .Vent of his interval, and also

the number of vessels %hick be himself sent ow. the
number •hick other persons bad sent owl, the failure
of crops previooe to the arrival of the outward slit ..
and other eircenstances which be rook! out foresee.
If the Defendants bed reasonably perforn.ed it

du'y according to the fair conseractinn of the agree.
went, then an Defendants were entitled to their
verdict; bat if not, they would ind for time Plaintiff,
with ascii damages as the evidence is mild justify.
The Jury, after a short consultation, Used foe
the Defendants.
The trial isecepied the whole day.

On the slighter Tuesday fienulight. a formidable
parry of 12 'Dishiest' smugglers, with eight hems,
lea Jed with about 160 gallons of whiskey, ems in.
tereepted near Kiefer., by Mr. Gillespie, the Es.
cite Officer ; when, assisted ealy by two ee r, he,
notwithstanding the greet dispatity of numbers, at.
tacked the smugglers, some of whom hating gad. a
long sod desperate battle ensiled, which teratiaated
in favour of Gillespie ; he succeeded is securing sic
of the horses, with twelve tinkers. Mr. Gillespie
was wounded ia the fare, and much breived, and
one of the smugglers wes severely wiseedeis bating
received • pistol shot in the leg, and anothefAireogla
