IMPORTANT Insurance CASE DEcIDED.-The Albany
N.Y) journal publishes the following decision Of an
insurance case which will interest those Of the South
who hold policies in Northern Offices:
About 1860, John P. Sanderson, Of Jacksonville,
Fla, commenced an action in the Supreme Court of
this State against Morgan and others upon an insur-
ance claim After the election of Mr.. Lincoln the
plaintiff was an active secessionst and held office
der the rebel government. In September, 1851, on
motion of the defendants counsel those facts were
allowed to be set up by way Of supplemental answer
as defense to the further continuance Of this action
The plaintiff demurred to that answer and Justice
Hogeboom decided against the plaintiff in May, 1862.
On the appeal the Supreme Court the Third District
affirmed that Judgment in May, 1863. The plaintiff,
hereupon, carried the to the Court of Appeals,
where the judgment has just been affirmed It is
thus established by the highest court in this State that
the plaintiff, being enemy during the late war,
could not maintain an action in our courts. He is
placed in the same position fpublic enemies dur
ing the time Of war This is believed to be the first
case where that question presented in our courts
after the war began but since that time the same doc
trne has been followed by all the States and BY the
Supreme Court Of the United States
