The invoice having necessarily been made up before the cases were actually shipjied 

 on board, the usual charge of ten shillings was inserted therein ; and it was not ascer- 

 tained until after they were shipped that a difference was made with respect to bul- 

 lion; amounting, in this instance, to eleven shillings, which has not been paid by Mr. 

 Rush, but by Thomas Aspinwall, and by him relinquished. 



1 In consequence of the very loose and careless manner in which the boxes were originally packed, 

 and of the damaged state of the packages, this charge was unavoidably incurred to prevent the con- 

 tents from being ground to pieces and lost on the passage to the United States.
