Some of our acts of par- liament direct the profecution and punifh- ment of the breach of the laws of trade, to take its courfe in the courts of Vice-admi- ralty : And it has been thought by a very great practitioner, that if the laws of trade were regulated on a practicable application of them to the ftate of the colony trade, that every breach of them fhould be profecuted in the fame way.
