AN IMPORTANT SUIT.

The largest suit ever brought in this
country, or, perhaps, any other, was to
commence the 9Th instant in Philadel-
phia. 1t is impossible to estimate &C
curately the amount of money involved
but we cannot be far wrong in putting
it down at fifty millions Of dollars.
The said suit is brought by the
heirs of Mr.. Nethermark, for nearly all
the land on which the city ofPniladel-
phia stands. The tract claimed ex-
tends from the upper end Of the navy
yard, half mile upthe Delaware, and
back 10 and across the SchuylkiIl, en-
bracing all the wharves and the Prln-
cipal business portion of the city.
The grounds of the claim are as fol
lows: Mr.. Nethermark was wealthy
Swede, who settled in Philadelphia be-
fore the Revolution, while that city
was a comparatively small town. He
became proprietor of the lands along
the river below the city, and some mis-
sionaries Of the Swedish church, tC
which he belonged, coming over, he
gave them a life-lease of this land, or
condition that after their death, or il
case they apostatized from thei
church, it should revert to his heirs
Although four of the said m.ssionarie
did afterwards abandon their faith, AM
| join the Episcopal church, in consider
alton ofthe fifth who remained true to tn
cause, the leases was not disturbed. l
the mean time the city extended dow
the river, covering all the land in ques
ton, and nothing appears to have bee
done, until death closed the contract {
Mr.. Nethermark, by carrying off tn
last of the leases, about six years agC
Since the latter period, the heirs VIII
are not numerous, and some of whoI
are wealthy, have been preparing IL
the struggle, and they have now con
!, menced suit under auspices so favo
II able, that two capitalists of Philade
t, phia voluntary proposed to risk all IL
d expenses of the law, provided the
+ should be admitted equally in the d
i vision of the property if the case su
" ceeded. This proposal was decline
d. by the heirs, one of whom IS our
: teemed fellow townsman, Capt Rec
v Ter,
