defendant. In this oast there was no dispute as to
price, the only quietism being whether the arrlele sup-
plied by the plaintiff was that for which the defendant
bargained, namely, barley at for seed. The plaintiff is

—'Plaintiff stated that on the 24th het Much he sold
to the defendant 10 qrs, of barley at 35.. 6d. per qr.
The barley was duly delivered, but when he epplied for
the money defendant objected to pay him—By Mr.
Atkinson : The deal WM rnade on the 24th March at
Blandford. I said the barley would grow very well. I
cannot say whether Mr. Hunt asked if be had any bar-
ley for seed. I did not say I was sure it would grow.
When he looked at the sample defendant might have
said. " Are you sere it will grow?" The following
week defendant said" Will that barley grow?" Plain-
tiff answered he believed it would. He bad sold souse
to Mr. Godwin for melting, to Mr. Drake, of Houghtoo,
and had sowed about 30 acres himself and it was eaming
up well. Would not swear the barley was not " mow-
burot," there might he a few corns so. Tbe Int ties* 1

The 10 urea came up much the same as the bet seven

saw both the seven acres and the 10 acres. In souse
