There were several other claims; among which three were worthy of remark ; The firit ot which was by a naturalized citizen of America, who was an £ngiifh> man born. The Judge 1 bferved, in this cafe, that anyEnglifh born fubjedt although residing in a neutral country, and becom ing a citizen, according to the laws of such neutral country, if sou d trading with any nation at war wi h great Britain, fh-uld have his prop rty contifcated ; as he held it impofiibie for such person to divest himfelf of his allegiance to his native country.— The second claim whs by a Frenchmsn ban. The Judge said, that as the certifi cate of citizei fh:p did not mention the place of his nativity, it is not his business to look farther : and as it was clear he was not a native Am-rican, he felt no diffidence in condemning his prcperty. The third claim was of a native Ameri r can. The Judge said, that it was peril ps a reutral ca c ; but as the shipper was im prudent enough to Alio hij property in such a suspicious vcff.l, although I t ftiould char the property, he (hould condemn the claim ant to pay the cods.
