It is contended by Mr. Reilly that the vessels be commanded by a naval officer under clause 57 of Sect. 3, his Commission tout legalize the proceedings of the people anywhere - but if to no Act was he referring. For that purpose - Altogether it often seems to me and I venture to advance the opinion with much hesitation - that a use is now made of the Imperial Act which was not contemplated by its framers - and that although its provisions are sufficiently wide to ever cover the ground - they cannot be so construed or extended beyond that ground else. More is not in the margin and something else is sufficiently wide for such purpose.
