Ile vegetation of witnesses garden was impaired ever since the manufacto4 , was 'established. He knew there were a black tar and a saltpetre manu factory in the neighbourhood—hut they were nut offensive. The saltpetre manufactory instead of de nier:long assisted vegetation. He was in the habit of overseeing the men employed in his garden, and he was often lairl up by the noxious qualities of the vapour. which assailed him there. His crops were destroyed, and has ineu were rendered incapable of workitg. John Weot•liad worked in the Defendant's ma nufactory .from Atigtot, 1816, until May last. floe materials used in niak,rog the volatile salt, were the liquor that came from the gas-lights, called esesomits, vitriol, and plaster-of-parts. There were Ave furuaces co , stoutly at work. The smell .was nauseous, and had injured his health. The espour crept slong the ground, and killed every specie, of vegetation it touched, The Defeadant once site!' him to pull up Wale of Mr. Kebbell's ribhagts that were killed. in order to bury them. Witness refused, unless his master would stand to the consequence. The Defendant, after some con .videration, pulled them up himself, and witness; buried them near a tar-barrel. Margaret Roue, who formerly rented a house at firornley, owed, that, when Defendant set up the manufactory, she was obliged to quit. the smell was so bad. The vapour lay so heavy on her heart. that it gave her a »irk head-ache. She had a little garden, with a few potatoes, which were all killed by the vapour. Cross-crinniosed.—A Doctor Bramwell had suc ceeded her in the house —but he had also been obliged to leave it. The CHIEF JIISTICB—" The place would he a very good reran fur a Doctor." John Nutter, who worked at Mr. Brown's pot ash manufactory, stated, that when the wind wa. in a particular direction, a fume was carried along '.nth it which created dizziness iti the head and sickness in the stomach. He had smelt it for a quarter of * mile. It killed vegetables, and even trees. Mr. Broad had not • bit of fruit io his garden during two summers. It was all destroyed by the vapour. The CHIEF JUSTICE again inquired of Mr. Wail ford, the leading Counsel fur Liw Defendant, wise tiler he could repel this case ? Mr. Wstaroan aid, looking to the evidence wl.ich he had to adduce, he felt it uecessary that the case should go to a Jury. Mr. GURNEY then proceeded to call several other witnesses, who resided on the spot. They all con• curved in describing the vapour that issued from the manufactory, as must offensive. Amino' them, Mr. Brown. the oveier of the black-ash-in 'noise. tory, was examined. He stated, that he one night turned out sixteen horses ou a piece of ground id. joining the Defendant's manufactory, and, iu the morning, lie found one of them wholly blind, and am other deprived of one eye. He attributed this to the noxious vapour which' proceeded from the premises. He had never offered 100% to the Dr. fendasit's foremast, to leave his master, and assist him in setting up a volatile salt manufactory. Mr. WALFORo addressed the Jury on the part of the Delsoutritt, observing that he would prove by evidence, that the Defendant's manufactory did not send forth the deleterious stench complained of, and that there were many establishineou in the neighbourhood from which much .More uuwhole some smells issued. He then called Mr. Bramwell, • medical gentleman, who had taken the cotti.ge formerly occupied b'y Mrs. Roue. lle, his wife, and two children, had lived there from October, 1816. till March, 1;17, and never found any ill effects from the Defeisdaut's mannfectory. was, however, much incommoded by the black. ash-manufactory. Mr. Accurn, a chemist, deposed, that horn the Manner in which the Defendant carried on hie busi ness, nothing injurious, and scarcely any thing un pleasant, could issue from his nianufactory. Toe foreman of the Defendant stated, that he had lived iii the manufactory two years. and found his health and appetite better thou they ever were before. Mr. Brown. who had jurt given his denee, had offered witness tool, to leave hii master, and go into partnership with him iu i volatile salt manufactory. Several other witneeit. &plied that they had Mt no inctuottenielice from the 'manufactory, al though they lived contiguous to it —hut they were greatly annoyed by other manufactories iu the ueighbotte hood. Mr. GuitvEt seas about to reply—when the Jury stated that they were satisfied, and mune& itchy returned a verdict of Guilty: PIRACt. mint tr. WHETSTONL. This Wis sunder to that which took up en much of the time or the Court yesterday. The declaration set Cork that the Plaintiff had com posed two country flan - Cyr, called Lady Caroline Morrill'''. and Rat R 41% hi which, by the statute, he haul a property for 2 years—hut that the De fendant had ille!polly pirated them, by which he suffered considerable injury. Nlr. SC•ILIATT, in stating the case, described his Client, the sou of* mosaic-seder at Bath, Is s young mato or very great gemus. Ile had devoted him self to the study of music, and hwl produced se vend highly-asliniretfcountry-daticri. Two of these, entitled Lady Caroline Noerisou and Rub Roy. winch were exceedingly popular, and of which, he would prove, the Plaintiff's father had at first said a great number, the Defendant,mnric-seller iu the Stroud, had thought proper to pirate, by %hick means the Plaintiff sustained considerable injury. lie, had, therefore, to protect his property in fu- wi~■i~ - :-"•‘ tore. and to recce'', &Nigel for the loss he had sustained, brought the present action. 1 The Learned Gentleman then called— Mr. Geo. White, the brother of the Plaintiff who deposed that he had sees him compose the two country...dances of Linty 'Caroline Morrison and Rob Roy. Mr. John White, rather to the Plaintitt spoke of his son as • most ingenious young man. He had composed SOO coontry•dsnces. Of the two which formed the ground of this actiom he com posed the former in October, 1816, and the latter in February of the present year. %%line's sold 4,000 'Of the dance celled Lally CarOline Morrison, 2,000 in MS. and •,000 printed. Of the dance of Rob Roy, he sold 800 in MS. Mr. Munroe proved that he had, by the Plaintiff's direction., ceased the too dances to be engraved and printed for his use, Mr. Whitaker, the composer, had conspired the edition of the dances published by Mr. IVhite with that published. by the Defendant. They were pre. vilely alike. The Defendant had evidently pirated them. The'compositions were as original as trifles of that kind generally were. Sir G. Smart looked upon the two pieces to be although there might be a similarity, in a particular bar, to sonic other air. A single bar could not be considered perfect—not less than a phrase, or four bars, could give an idea of a sub. ject. Therefore, though a single bar might be similar to .4 bar id another composition, he did not think that circumstance destroyed originality. An old man, who printed the dances for the De. tendon!, was called to prove the slumber he had struck off. But, as he could neither read nor write, his evidence was of no service. _ ticsaturr said, he had . host of witnesses to call with respect to the originality of the airs, if his Lordship deemed it necessary. Tne Cnter Juatce said, the Learned Counsel would, have hu opportunity of railing any other witneases he ptrused, if the cause in its progreos, seemed to cull for them. Mr. GURNEY, for the asfetit!...iVregretted that be wan not so great en eta pt in the science it mu.ic, as Ins Learned Frorinl—hut he consoled himself with the hope, that he would, nevertheless, be able to ptortire is verdict foi hip client. He would prove, that if the Defendant had committed an error, he hail done so uniiiientitnia:ly—sinee the MS. of the dances was hooded over to him hr a Gentleman whom he would call, and who would state, that sieitlwr he nor the person Prom whom he procured it, were coginsant of any claim set up by Mr. White. But the question for the Jury to con sider would he, whether these were original com position.? He would call II 1)04 of witnesses to prove that they were not—that th.y were compila tions from other airs—and, if that were the case, the Plaintiff could not recover. As well might a man say, , 4 I have written a tine essay,!' when he slide onepassage from The .spreiaror, another from The Gmardiau, mud a third from The Rambkr, as the Plaintiff in this case lay claim to these dances, a■ original compositions, if they were only " shreds sitsl patches" selected from different airs. He theesyrocreded to call his witnesses. John Bryn°lds rtsitles at Bath, and is a musical performer there. Hr had known the dance called Lady Caroline Morrison, since November 1816, when it was given to tam in MS. by a Gentle man. Hr after Wards performed it in a public assembly. In June, 1818. he gave a copy to Mr. Whetstone. He did not know at the time that the Plaintiff claimed any property in it. Mr. ScAILITT wished the MS. to be produced. Mr. CAMPBELL said it had been destroyed. Witness continurd.—He recollected the dance of Rob hay in the last winter, which he also commu nicated to qtr. Whetstone. He never heard that Mr. White claimed any property in it. Cross-estintined. —He knew Mr. White's music. shop at Bath, and was acquainted with him. He had lived for ten years in Bath. and played at con certs and at the theatre. He did not recollect who the Gentleman was from whom he' got the MS. He made a copy from the Gentleman's MS. and re turned the original to him. He would not swear that the MS. was not marked as Whitt's, property. He had seen MS. copies of Country-dances which were sold by Mr. IVhite. Whetstone occasionally published country-dances, and witness Made him a present of two or three. He was not 13441 my thing for them—neither was his rather paid. He never heard that Whetitone had said he would take his oath berore the Lord Mayor that the dances were lent to him amongst others. and that he had paid for them. Leigh stated, that he was a performer it the Opera-hotise. Ha r ing looked at the country dance of Lady Caroline Morrison, it appeared to him not to be an original coinposition. The eight first bars were almost precisely the same ai a dance in TW Forty Thieves. The second part was coon. piled from The Barber VSeiille and Unit Liattmuti. On examining the dance of Rob Roy. he was de cidedly of opinion that it was not original. The first part was built on the air of 1. Will you eoifie td the Bower?" It was the 'former melody, with a slight variation. It also, in the first part. boi:e a strong affinity to Asiky's Hornpipe. The second part of Rob Roy was made up of bars that had been written a thousand times before: They Were trite coondion. He also held in his hands varia tions from an old piece, the name of which he did pot know, which had evidently been iniitateci. Cross-iroasixed.—Witoess had performed at the Opera ler two pr three hermits. His instrument *as the violoneellth The Barbet of St+ille tame out in the last season. The music was by Rossini. It appeared to him that the music or the country lance of Lady earoline Morrison w it s in part taken from The Barber of Siiifle. •H K did mot know the name of the dance in The Forty Thieves, which was also borrowed from—nbr could lie icy what key it was played iii. He pointed out the dance in Dom Glove:ant, (tom which a part of the dance of Lerdy Caroline Morrison was selected. A portion of it alto rrarthbled au When air in 7Ai naieners. l)oa Giovanni Oda brought odt in the season before last. The music was arranged, in a rest measure, by Mr. Ayrton. He knew port of the music of Dfin Giovanni before it was brodght silt in London. Ha. believed he knew that part which was made UP! of i!i the dance of Lady Cara/hie Morrison, but hr was not Mlle. Kr•examined—There were eight sequent Don% in the tecoutl pa or Lady Curtain Mor►i►on, pre- ciseiy the same ait'S en ItaTian air iii Tde Trc.- _ Wm. Janson, a Professor of Music, was acquaint ed with that science for thirty Or forty years, and procured his livelihood by it. In Ins opinion.. the danceof Lady Caroline Morrison was not entrely %I'ith respect to the two first bare, they differed somewhat from the air to which they had been 'contoured. He tl glut, however, slow the person whocomposed the first part moat have been impressed with the recollection of •si. choice in The Forty Thieves. The bass was nearly the Pante. The second part was nn lIIIItNtIOII of an Indian air in The %rove/lees. Eight se;queiit notes were ex actly the same as those in the Italian air. Toe two pieces of music appeared to him to he substaii belly the same. The dance of Rob Roy ons also taken from old music. Part of it was borrowed from a French air, of which it was only a WM/101011. He could not speak positively of any other portico of it. Cross-examined.—Witness had published about 9,000 pieces. He did not consoler that a ',enrols who took the idea of an air from any existing coon position could lay claim to originality of subject.— He had never composed a song from a passage in a smote. He did not think that passages precisely similar were to he found in the works of original composers. Time, he admitted, formed the great differetice, with respect to the twelve notes, in the. composition of music. If it were not for time, music might be reduced to • mere matter of calcu lation. according to the notes on the piano or any other instrument. He had seen variations of hob Roy very like those ire the country dance flow exhi bited. He had sometimes composed variations to old airs, but he did nut think that gave him a pro perty in them. Willi pit IVilson deposed, that he had been a Professor of Music for thirty }ears. He did not consider the country dance of La !y Caroline Mor rison to be, by any means, an original compo wins.. The whole subject was taken from lie Forty Thieves—but the latter was by far the b.st dance. The first phrase of the second strain was taken from The Travellers, ex cept the pasting or &Hainaut note. The third phrase of the second strobe was also taken froin The Travellers, except One middle note. The variation of the passing note did not, in the smallest degree, niche it an original composition. The music he spoke of in The 7' , avellers and Forty 1 hieres, was older than the dance of Lady Caro line Morrison. He looked upon the dance of Rob Roy as 'guilty destitute of originality. The first strain was entirely taken from the air of " Will you come so the bower ?" The notes were not precisely the same—hut the subject was. A per son not skilled Pi the science, would, if the two airs were played, mistake the one for the other. The ground, or fundamental bass both of Will you crime to the bower r and Rob Roy, was taken from a French air. With respect to the second part, the first bar appeared to be formed of an air sung by Lingo, in The Agreeable Surprise, The second, of all the Jlepo're. was an adapta tion of the air of Sleep on, sleep on, my Math !woe dear! in The Poor Soldier—the third from a country-deuce. which he himself had compooed—and the fourth from • very old air, Prince Eugeire's &larch. He had formed many country-dances by compiling, as others had done —but he did not consider them to be original com positions. Cross-examined.—Witness never sold country dances. He conceived ilia tiny persoil had a right to use Compilations of this kind. They did nut belong to the individual who only took from dif ferent composers: He was acquainted generally with Handel's music. Both in his compositions, and in those of other masters, passages occurred, where the seven notes succeeded each other in re. gular order. Joseph Dale had been • composer of music for fifty or sixty years. He did not think the dance of Lady Caroline Morrison was original. Thomas Bolton, a composer of mosaic, had seers the dance of Lady Caroline Morrison. It was riot wholly original—but was formed, in some degree, from an sir in The Forty Thieves. The second part was baleen from an air in The 'travellers. The dance of Rob Roy was 'tot original. It was a varia tion front a French air. Seven bars out of the tight were borrowed. Cross-examined.—There undoubtedly might he original variations. What lie meant to say was, that there were scraps of other compositions in these doners--and that the ground-work woo evidently bdrro*ed in both. Thus closed the Derrndantia cage. Mr. ScaltiETT called Sir G. Smart again, who Mated, that he had written out the two bars of the air in The Travellers, relied on by the Detention , , and they certainly were not similar to those in the dance of Lady Caroline Mortice& The harmony was the satne—hut the melody, which was every thing in a country deuce; was essentially itiffetent. ►lr. Henry Bishop had arranged the music of The Ba►her of SeoiPe, for Csirent-Burden Theatre. He did not think that the second putt of the dunce of Lady Coronae Morrison was tatieu from that work. He was of opinion that it was, in a great degree. original. 3. G. Ferrari, a teacher of siiigng and a com poser, had heard the evidence of Sir G. Smart and Mr. Bishop, and entirely concurred in it. Mr. Sc.tai.v.Tr wss heard in reply. lie contend ed, that all originality emisistert merely iii the stew combination of ouch when, by such d combination, a new and striking eff e ct was pro ilitced, the person who had succeeded in producing it ought to reap the reward of his ingenuity.
