The Mkhits of the Case, m appairinu; from the Ilvulcncc, arc as follows ; The Refpondents are Lumber Dealers, dealing in the ufual manner, by undertakini: to brin^ xlown limber to Quebec or Three-Rivers, at certain prices, in confideration of advances to bf pieviouily made to them for that purpofe, without which they arc of courfe unable to do it as thev are under the ncceflity of paying for the Timber in the Upper Country, as well as the very con. liderable txpences attending the Transportation of it down. '' They had been induced, accordingly, to enter into the Contract of the 2d of November IHIO on this coiilideration, a..a having received the .^500 which is therein mentioned, as having been paid down It the tm.e of its execution, they, on their parts, immediately entered into fuch Con- tacts WW I Mr. Biglow, of ficondoroga, a landed Proprietor and Magiftrate there, Mr. Rolev Mr. Landers, William Cook, lilcp-. Mr. Taylor, Mr. Denefmore, Meilrs. Jonathan and Lei nine I hnow, aiu other perlons, ^s were n xelfary, and would have been fully fuflicient to have enabled then to have completed their Contract with Jackfon.

(.See N". 8, in the Record.) It appears, alio, that Jackfon had. in fact. be. come utt.;rly '"fo vent, ami had been imprifoned at Montreal, and that, in consaiucncc of the non-payment r ',:, Money, the Refpondents Inruim- umibic to perjoni their Ihimirrvmnits with the .y(iinilp( ,■ .;■///, ti/iom llicj/ /lud (o/itrartcd for the purpofe of fulfilling tliis Contract. That fuch of tlie perfons with whom they had contracted, as had not already delivered the Timber, refufed fo to do ;— that the portions which had been delivered, could not be got over the Rapids, for want of money to pay the Hands and Pilots;— that Ten or Twelve Thoultnd Feet of .Square Norway Pine were left up the River Seiiac, of which a part was deftroyed by fire —and that the Refpondents were not only prevented from performing this Contract by the Infoivencv of Jackfon, but fiibjected to incalculable lofk and inconvenience in every refpect.— fSee the Evi deiice of MefTrs.
