Mr. Uor,AcE Twrss, for the plaintiff,' stated, that this actiop was . brotsit ti) try an important question of Copy-right. The plaintiff was Proprietor : of .Mr. Moore's Irish Melodies,• from • whieb the defendant had pi-fated two of the most popular songs, " Fly m),r yet " and " Eveleen's Bower," not veil - 416in indeed ; but with altera tions so slight.as to be merely colourable; thus, where Alr.•Moore had written • " Fly net yet ; 'tis-!tist the hopr, • When pleastire, Me the ruidnight flower, • not scorns the eve of vale,4.f - pre,in t i to'hloo ) n for sow- :,1 niO l t, • • Anil rivtids who inve n„ ; ,,on. The defendant had . printed, . " Fly not yet : 'tiijtigt. the leltir, , When ol caw re move* 1;J:71 - power ; When fancy, dieed with pinions bright, crith sous ill mirth, her flii;ht, .dita t lovers court 14e M 0012 ." The Learned' Counsel thus wenr through the songs'of Mr. Moore, and those of the defendant; Tending the passages alternately from the genuine; and from the spurious copy, and comtneating. on the lines as he proceeded. lie 'made -a - concise statement of the law,. 'founded on the Statute 8 Ann, chop. 19. and explained by several modern cases, from which he proved the illef.iality of such - adaptations as thOse of the defendant, He'sheWed that the 'question for a Jury in such cases' is not; how .. many lines or wr)rds have been changed or stolen, but whether the main design be'a mere colourable contrivance to invade the copyright of another ; which, if it be in alterations, how• ever artful, will avail to shelter the piracy. 'ln this case the defendant had eren affirmed in his shop to one of the witnesses 'who went thither as a purchaser, that the spurious songs which Yre was selling, were from the plaintiff's 'work, and '(which furttiAred a further inference of his piratical design as to the words) he had stolen from the plaintiff's work even the arrangentent'of the music. The event of the cause was highly important, •not only to the trade to- which the plaintiff belonged, whose %whole bUsiness as-pul)=-' fishers would be pilfered away from4hern if such stratagems should be sanctioned by thtlaw ; but to men of- literature,, whose talents are too ()lien their sole dependance, and whose cornijoSitious would yield them but a miserable pittance 'if the booksellers amtmusie-dealers who . -niight purchase the copyrights' were not to tie' protected dir the enjoyment of their fruits.'
