Mr. GS *Row stated this was an action brought by the Plaintiff; a livery stable-keeper, against the Defendant, a Gentleuma of large fortune, to re cover damages for a bodily injury he had reeeited by the negligetrce of the Defendant's servant, who drove the Defendant's lonoliche and four horses against the gig and horse Lf the Plaintiff, by which means the gig was upset and broken, the Ithinitiff thrown out, and his . birellead mid thigh much bruised and wounded.. De stated this was a case that required the serious attentson of the Jury, as Omit were many aggravating circutnatances attend ing it. In the month a. May last, the Plaintiff, with his friend, a Mr.. Dennis, were returning from Epsom races ; about five o'clock in - the even ing, they were driving quietly up Wimbledon-hill. when Lord' Sefton's Is:trot/die, with four-in-hands passed them. In a few minutes afterwards the Defendant's bardache and four came up; the leaders passed the Plaintiff's gig, when the Defendant's coachman, by a turn of the wrist, well known to- the Four-in-limit Whip Club, briaught the hind-wheel of the harnuelie in contaut with the gig, which upset it. broke its shafts, sod so much tiiPared the Plaintiff, that he was for months confined to his bed ; it could not hare beers accidental; there was a ma tfie.rney of room on either side of the road for the barotiche to bare passed the gig ; there was a cirentristatice of the greatest ag ;.ravatiest, and which did not shew imusauiiy un the ,tart of tile Defendant, fur, after the gig had been upset, and the Phiattiff and ht. friend were lying in the road, to a !tall! tut I.:sensibility, the Defersdaut stoo , t up ;n his ba,micile, and saia, Ind- - --.rt them, I wish they had ueen both killed !"

Oa his cross-expination by kr. PARK, he said he did not hear the comlwcan cull out, until just at tite moment the accident took place ; that the Pleintilf kept a direCt course, aria dill not draw his horse towards the barouche. • On his re-examin ation, he said, that the accidmit was alone caused by the misconduct of the coachman. as thine was sufficient room fur the barouche to paint without touclinag the gig. The road w Y 3 feet wide so that part. Throphilus Dennis, the person who was in coin pally in the gig with the Plaintiff, deposed, that they had been at Epsom rsces,and corroborate(' .he testimony of the first witness ; and added, that the first he knew of the Defendant's barouche, was the leaders passing them ; Lord Sefton's harnuche bad made great it( ise ; the Defendant's co 'lshmael drew the leaders to tne near side as they passed them, which brought the hind wheel of the barouche contact with the wheel of the gig, which upset it. The witness wag luticli hurt; but, on his recurei iug a little, he saw the Plaintiff' lying on the road, in a gore of blood. He was convinced the gig was up set by the misconduct of the Deleinhisit's coach man. The Minutia' wits fir seven or eight weeks confined to his lied, and was obliged to have 'nett- cal assistance—and. by them, at the expiration of that time, he was ordered to Brighton, fur the re covery of his health. On his cross-examination by Mr. PA nx, he said he understood that the Defendant had sent a cur groat to attend the Plaintitl; but the latter bad Loci, provided with one before he came. Mu.

If he proved this, the Jury. under the di rection of his Lordship, must give a verdict toe tee Defendant. • John Dore, the Defendant's coachman, dep:stsl, that when lie best saw the Plaintiff's gig, lie was . half a mile beyond him; he (the witness) was about one hundred yards behind Lord ieftan's harouchei they both passed the hindmost gig ; it antler way for them ; Lord Sefton's harouche pouted fire h Plaintiff, as also did the Defendtuit's leaders, on which the Plaintiff did intentionally draw his horse op against the wheel-horses. and broke the 'ter-her of the harotiehe before the gig was upset; he called out several times to the Plaintiff, befere he attempted to pass him; lie heard hint, because he turned *brut, and lauelied at the writhes".

The Plaiutia; an engineer, m Loug-Aere. had • agreed to make fur the Defendant a machine, fur cutting whale-bone, so as that it would !answer the purposes to which hog's brimlcs were applied; the necessity for this substitute being very great, and • the application very profitable, en account of the war with Russia, which rendered the hugs tins. * ties very scarce, and the price very exurlaelit.—. .1 This engine was completed in some time, during which, teeny experiments had been made, and was erected at the Defendant's manufactory. in Ken sington, where it was worked, and answered the effect.

The Defendant re fused to discharge the demand. on account of Its exorbitance—the Plaintiff, to consequence, brought the present action. The Counsel for the Plaintiff called several respectable witnesses to prove the originality and excellence of the machine, and the modesatiou of the charges. These witnesses stated. that they would nuclei take to make such a machine for 2501. or 9001. ; but they deemed the n herr made by the Piaintift very moderate, on ace unt of the expense and trouble it had occae d. n n ac count of its having heels an original invention. Mr. Brarnali, engine -manufacturer, in Pimlico. ▪ gentleman of very great respectability, was one of those who stated his •pprobetien of the ma chine, and the moderation of the charges.
