LAW INTELLIGENCE (THIS DAY).

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

(SittingF; at Niel Prins, before the Lord Chief Baron and
a Special Jury.)

BIINYER V. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY.

In this case, Sir F. Thesiger (with whom was Mr.
Lush) appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Bramwell,
Q.C., and Mr. Dawkins, for the defendants.
The action was brought by the plaintiff to recover
compensation in damages from the defendants for injuries
sustained by him by reason of the negligence of the de-
fendants' servants.

It appeared from the evidence that on the 3tb August,
1853, the plaintiff, together with a friend named Ker-
shaw, were travelling by express train from King's•cross
to Bigglesby, on the Great Northern Railway, when, in
their approach to Hurnsey, the train came into violent
collision with some coal trucks which were lying across
the line, whereby the plaintiff and a number of other
passengers sustained severe injuries. In the case of
the plaintiff it was stated, on the authority of three
medical gentlemen, that a blow which he received
on his head had produced concussion of the brain,
and consequent paralysis, and had, moreover, com-
pletely undermined his constitution and previously
good health, inasmuch that he had never s:nce been
able to attend properly to his bushiess.
The line of cross-examination pursued by Mr. Bram-
well appeared to be directed to proving that suppressed
or transferred gout, and not the injury, had brought
about the effects from which the plaintiff bad been suf.

feling.

At the close of the plaintiff's case, the learned counsel
proceeded to address the jury for the defence. He ad-
mitted on behalf of the defendants that the negligence of
one of their servants had resulted in the accident in
question, and said he should confine himself to the con-
sideration whether the plaintiff had really suffered, as he
stated, from the effects of the injury he sustained, or
from some other cause, and, consequently, whether or
not the jury would be warranted in awarding damages.
The arguments of the learned counsel were proceeding
when our report was despatched.

Barons Alderson, Parke, and Alartiu sat in Banco in
the Exchequer Chamber ; but during the morning no
case of any general interest transpired.
