Description
This is a writ of error to the Circuit Court of the United States for the eastern district of Louisiana. The suit was brought in the court below to recover back from the collector of the port of New Orleans an excess of duties paid by the plaintiffs. The goods upon which the duties were imposed were certain invoices of molasses and sugars, imported from Matanzas, in the island of Cuba, in the year 1852. They were imported by the manufacturer, and, on an appraisal of the value at the customs in New Orleans, the appraised value exceeded the invoice value upwards of ten per centum; whereupon, the collector imposed and additional duty of twenty per centum upon the appraised value, under the 8th section of the act of 1846, which was paid under protest.
