31.tY 1. t ar forgets tilt makners of out. and .ran ebrulesceta to act as the <ltfendarit has done, he must be taught to preserve some decency of conduct, by the ill efiCets resulting to himself from a breach of it. Tie Court can see no grounds for disturbing this verdict, except that the damages given exceeded the injury. True, perhaps, the real ioiory done to the plaintiff did not exceed a halfpenny ; but was a halfpenny a eempensation in midi's case as this?- and if a Jury were an any case to go - beyond real damages, who should say where the line was to be drawn, txcept the circumstances of the case were to draw it ? No ra'e could be more augravated than tl:e present : the result of the defendant's conduct, had it not been tot the um &ration of time plaintiff, 'nicht have been productive of a duel, ana the most scrims consefprenres. The Court considered the verdict, in this case, as a moderate putishment ibr the offence, and saw no reason to disturb it.—Rule iefused.
