The King in Council having reversed a decreet of condemnation of a ship and cargo by the Admiralty in Bermudas, and ordered restitution or their values, the said values to be ascertained by the Court of Admiralty of Bermudas, and that the appellant be at liberty to surcharge the value mentioned in the apprizement taken by order of that Court;—in a process at the owner's instance against Sir John Bruce, who was Governor of Bermudas, the Lords found it not competent for them to take proof of the value of ship and cargo, or upon the surcharge of the value mentioned in the apprizement taken by order of the Court of Admiralty of Bermudas, so far as it is not already determined by the said Court, in obedience to the order by the King in Council.
