SUPERIOR COURT. Before Hon. Judge Hoffmsa. Mar 30.—J, Phillips Phaniz vs. the Commissioners of Emigration, the Mayor, &c., 07 New York.—Hon. Ogion Hoffman, on the part of the defendants, resumed, this morning, his argument, which he had commenced the previous afternoon. He spoke for severai hours, and contended that the State having made it imperative upon them to designate some place for an emigrant depot, ua- Jeas they could select Castle Garden, it would be impos- sible for them to fulfll their duties, as there was no other place in New York or its vicinity applicable for the purpose. If the court should decide to continue the in- junction and refuse to allow the place to beso appro pristed, a very serious blow would be struck at the commercial prosperity of this city, for the em! te who are now accustomed to land in the port of New York, would, for want of a central depet or landing place, as ee by the State authorities, be com- w elsewhere. He contended that the wan'eet only the sole remaining one but the very ¢ that could have been selected, and that the precaa- tions taken by the Commissioners, as exhibited in their answer, and the testimony of eminently practical phy- sicians dispelled all ideas of danger from con ry diseases in the event of emigrants being landed there. = dwelt at great length upon the coaditioas efixed to rant by Tre Btate to t corporation of the Battery ana Bowing Green, and contended that the Castle Gar- beyond low water mark, was not affected by My nota of 1790 or of 1821, but ras simply granted the State, subject to no conditions, and re- by_no covenants as to its use for private purposes. "wonides, the use to which the Commis- Howera Lael gro to app'y it was eminently s publ'c one. m3 had contended that the amsignment by of his term to the Commiss: was invalid, ad This did not affect the case, for the Commissioners, whether by a good title or defective title, or without any title whatever, were in possession when the injunction was applied for; the corporation had iater; mo ob- jection and had made no appearance here to oppose the action of the Commissioners, and trerefore they could not be opposed by persons in the capacity of the plain- tiff, vple no privity of centract, and whossown ma- te ita and covenants would mot be injured or affected anything the Commissioners ceuld do in the mises. Pon. F. B. Cutting replied for the plaintiff, and the Court reserved its decision. Decision in Admiralty oy Appeal. UNITED STATES CIROUJF COUKT. Before Hon. Judge Max 30.—Aaron G. Higgins vs. the United States Mail Steamship Company.—This libel was filed in the court be- low to recover demurrage for the unreasonable detention of the ship Kanawha at the port of Havana. She was treighted by the respondents with coal, from New York to that port; and it is claimed that, according to the contract of affeightment, the vossel was to be detained not exceeding twelve running days in the discharge of her cargo, whereas she was, in fact, detained some twenty-seven days in addition, The bill of Isding, signed by the master of the Kanawha—the only written contract between the parties—makes no mention ef the number of days within which the coal should be dis- charged. It is in the usual form, and stipulates that it is *‘to be delivered in like good orde: id condition, at the aforesaid port of Havana, (dangers of the sea exsept- ed,) unto Messrs. Drake & Co., or to their assigns, he or they paying freight, at $1 per ton, with five per cent primage, and average accustomed.” The limitation as to the number of running days in the discharge of the coal is sought to ve made out by oral evi- dence; and we have before us the testimony of agents of the owners on the one side, aad of the shippers on the other, directly in copflict on the subject. Tes undoubtedly’ ‘true that this instrament is open to ex- planation to a certain extent as between the original parties, to correct mistakes or imposition upon the master. So far as it partakes of the mature of a receipt it may be properly explainable, and is not conclusive. But we have seen no case that has gone the length of varying the contract by parol in respect to the matterin question. According to the construction of the bill of lacing, excluding Interpolations by oral evidence, the delivery of the coal would be governsd by the custom and usage of the delivery of eargoes of that description at the port of Havana. The oral evilencs, therefore, changes entirely the legal effect of the instrament as to the matter in question. Even were I more doubtful than Tamas tothe application of the rule ex:luding the paral evidence of Pee contract, the omission to imsert it would lead me to incline in favor of the testimony of the witness, who denies that any such contract was made. Whether made or not depends upon the evidence of the two parties who entered into the contract of shipm+ and which, as we have said, is directly in conflict. therefore, lay out of the case the oral agreement set up by the libellant. Then, as to the delivery of the coal, the respondents were in possession of « partictlar dock or wharf at Havana, where ali ths coal shipped for their line of steamers was landed; and we areiacined to think that the master of the Kanawha was right in supposing that he was bound to discharge his cargo at that place. Indeed, upon the eviience it would seem to have deen the only place where his cargo could be discharged at that port, and being obliged to discharge it there, he was also necer sarily obeed toon conform to the usage and prac tice that existed regulating the delivery, and which was, as but two vessels could discharge at «time, to wait for his turn. Only one vessel was permitted to discharge her cargo before him over which Ae was entitled to pre- ference. She was engaged sevan days in the delivery, and for this delay he had a night tocomplain. The court below found the delay to be twenty-sevem days, but that was founded upon the oral contract, whish we have disregarded. An objection is taken to the jaris- diction of the court below, upon the greund that the breach of contract com; of is not the breach of a maritime contract. But this isa misapprehension. Ac- cording to our interpretation of the contract of ship- ment, the respondents were bound to afford accommoda- tion at their wharf to the Kenawhs for the delivery of the coal, according to the usage and custom of vassels engaged in its shipment. This conteact is s maritime contract, over which the court had jurisdiction, aad it is for a’breach of it upon which the iicel is founded. The refusal to permit the discharge of the cargo, ac. cording to the usage of the place, was as muct # breach of the contract asa refusal to pay the freight, er to ac- cept the cargo at all, whore the bill of lsdiog provided for acceptance. We must therefore reverse the decree be- low, and unless the parties agree upon the damages for the seven days’ detention, telerense must be the clerk, to ascertain them in conformity with ‘this ‘ion. May 31—Jacob Shurte vs. The Steamboat New York — ‘This Libel was filed by the owner of the barge tHero, which was sunk ina storm on the North River on the night of the 2d of August, 1854, near Yonkers, while in tow of the tug New York. Sbe was loaded with 213 ‘tons of coal, and was stationed in the middle of the front tier of the tow, on the larboard side of the tug, which consisted of three boats. Several grounds are taken upon the proofs, which are folumiaous in the case, in order to establish gross mye on the part of the master of the tug, under circumstances of the violence of the storm in which the bost was loat— such as that at ite position in the tow was an impreper was moving at toe great speed at the he should bave come toan anchor, or de- tached the boat from the tug, ro a8 to have prevented it from being drawn under and sunk. We have looked into case with a view to toe several grounds of complaint poche the conduct of the tug, aad agrae with the Court below that neither of them are sustained by the roofs. Oa the contrary, the elear weight of the evi- Ronce is, that the sinking of the barges sttributable to the elfect of the storm that prevailed, without the fault of the tug, or to the negligence of the master in not properly securing the forecsatle hatcn, in. conse. quence of which it was forcel open by the broakii the water over it, and letting it into her hold. hateb, ae deveribed ia the testimony, was covered with a box’ of combings rising from the éeck, fitting tight, without any other fastening, The other’ two hatches were secured with hooks and staples, as this one should have beep, or with bars ge fastened, which is bet- ter, and has since been adopted. The master of the barge, also, is not altogether free from blame, aftor the storm had arisen and danger apprehended, as he neg. lected to watch the ill-socared hates after his attention had been called to it by some of the hands of the tug. We think the decree below, dismissing the lib), right, and afiirm the decree. United States District Court. Before Hon. Judge Ingersoll.
