This important cease, which already occupier/ two entire
days, was 'mein. wiled WI yesterday moritin, when some
wituesses who had been already examiwerl were again ono-
domed. Their testimony weal merely to explain some points
it' their former evidence. . •
The Not.torrott.GcsigßAL tt,en rose to address the Jetty
On behalf of the Plaiutirs. He took so esteosire view of
all the els cumetances and feels in the case, end °llse' veil very
Minutrly, and at great length, *spurt the evidence of the
different :guesses produced rot bulb side., and contended
that the Ih-feud-anis had altigether Clika It) proving what
b. their plea they undertook to prove, namely, that the
*ode of boiling sugar by bested oil in d the risk end
rained the destruction of the premises; out the contrary,
the fair presumption arising froni every circumstance of the
case was, that the premises were destroyed, nut by explosion,
but by fire, as other premiseeeeposed to the danger of
in-
gaamable matter bad been. In illustration of this position,
the Learned Grut lemon referred to the evidence of our of the
wituesses, who stated that he had knownlhit ty sugar houses
destrordby fire in the city of London frusta time lu lime, sad
notwithstanding very minute inquiries, he was able to
find the precise cause of fire in any of them. It was out neces-
sary fur the Plaintiffs its the primmest action to spew how Or
is what way the premises lied taken fire. It was fur the
Defendants to prove that they had been consumed in she
manner, and by the means ted in their plea; but if
the Plaintiffs were bound to account in a reasonable men.
ucr fur the fire, it would be easy to do au. TIIC, pre-
mises were like all other sugar-houses, full of iatlato-
maids patter; candles were lighted iu (be morning, and
carried through the warehottre, teal this fact atone was
enough to chew at least a puesible cause of the fire. But
the Jury were nut to give their verdict nn em.jecture—i hey
were to found it upon proof. The Defendents, by conjec-
ture, by inference, by presumption, might attempt to abew
that the premise* were consumed by the means described its
his pleading; but he was boomd not by inference to account
fur—bat by clear end demuumtrative evidence to prime
the fad. Not having dupe so, ur done soy Oda:: like it,
he sisbenitted that in justice, as well as in rereasn, the Plain-
tiff, wen/ entitled to their verdict. The Learned gentleman
coucluded by saying, that after the greet consuleratiore they
had given the case, after the patient hearing they load given.
le the evidence, his clients, should the Jury, against his coo.
viction, find a verdict fur the Defeatiants, would bow to the
deciairm, sod abide by it.
After the address of the Solicitor-Geueral was concluded,
the Jury, with the permission of the Court, retired furs few
minutes.
Shortly after out o'clock Lord Chief Justice Dallas com-
menced his charge. He stated very fully the pleading., in
the cause, and the points upon which issue lied beet' joined.
His Lordship next adverted to the evidence, which lie read
over to the Jury from the begiowing to the end. Having
gate through the evidence, his Lordship said that there
could he no doubt but the premises were consumed by Ire,
and there was as little doubt that the Plaintiffs were eu.
titled to recover unless they violated the conditions of the
contract contaioed in the policy under which they claimed.
The objections made by Mr. Scarlett were, that the pre-
mises were nut truly described in the policy ; it was neces-
sary that they should be correctly mid sufficiently described.
If the premises were not so described, then the pulley
would be void. It was affirmed by the Plaintiffs that they
were sufficiently described, and denied by the Defendants.
The premises consisted of different apartments, forming
one building. The apartments erre the long-house, the
grinding-house, sod the sew-house. After the instrienee
had been effected, and before it was renewed. a new build-
ing was erected, cubed the new house, which was not stated
in the Wk.,. It was fur the Jury to say whether this, not
having been added whew the policy was renewed, destroyed
the true descriptive; if so, it would make the tusurauce
void. The Jury barite( the model before them, es well as
the evidence, be left it to them to say whether there was or
pm not es *deviate and correct drecription grveu of tbe
premises. The Nast psestiteo wee where the fire took plea,
whether in the witorbeiese.er is the rano *here the process Walt
carried on. This was a question whirls was much involved in
mystery; to him it appeared very sinzular, that the person
who had the charge of the fire, aed the watchman near the
premises (both of them is lie service of the Plaintiffs), nei-
ther of them was produced as witnesses. He wiped the holding
beck that (eidetic, affected his mind very considerably. Tu

sore who 'ought to recover stair's a public company, it with

not done so; but the Jury would not decide on Ibis slurps/
they would take it in combination with the other foe*
He drew so inference from it. He would be ever caution
in venturing to impute unworthy motives to respectable pits
✓oes. All be would my was, that Lie naiad was its • MEAN

where the process had been carried ()Nit would be a stroug fact
to spew that that process we. attended with couch additional

augur-houses, and the July had it frum a respectable witnemit
that after all inquiries, be never could ascertai a the causes et
douse fire,. Jodgiag from this evidence, it was but right
to cowhide that the tire aright have proceeded from some of
those accidental ceases which produced fires in other pro.
miles. But, on the other baud, it was peculiar to this case,
that a fire never before happened oat those prtruises till this
new promos was inerooloced, and took place three muotha
after ibis new proms, and a straw present when it did
break out was not actually called. As to the place where
the ire commenced, the Jury would judge fur themselves.
