The decree however was professionally,
reversed in England, requiring in the NEAR
time the ownerto produce proofs that the
cargo was not originally intended for the
Havana. Documents were therefore for,
warslcd, supposed fully to establish this
proof; aud among them the letters of'the
captain, stating his difficulties and the ne
cessity of going counter to his orders by
returning to America, instead of proceed
ing to Calcutta. Notwithstanding this, we
see the lords of appeals have affirmedthe
sentence OF condemnation in The V. a.
court. What makes this decision the
more important 6 alarming, is, the princi-
pieconsiantly acted uponby ourmerchants,
that properly imported into America, and
landed, might afterwards be leg,tima,ely
exported to the dorninicns OF the same
power from whom they were originally
brought; and in this pr-dicament pre-
sumo is now vast amount of American,
capital; which, upon the principle adopt
ed by the lords OF appeal, is in danger OF
sharing the same fate with the Essex.
