-REPORT.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Li Ncoi.N%-letir, MAicti

HOGG fti, KIRBY.

Titri was an application for a Perpetual Injunt-
tion to restrain the Defendant from publishing, a
Work called The Wonderful Magazines of which the
-Plaintiff claimed to be the sole proprietor ; also
prtying that an account might be taken of, the num-
ber of copies disposed of by the Defendant, and the
profits arming therefrom, and for the costs oldie
suit.

Upon a former day this case was argued at .consi.,
derahre length ; it then appeared that the parties
originally had been concerned together in the pub.
lication of the, Wolk in question, the Defendant
having published it• for the Plaintiff ; but, after
some Numbers had appeared, a dispute arose, and the.
Defendant then publtshc'd the Work with some vari-
ation, to prevent its being an immediate copy, on
his own sole and separate account. The LORD Cid AN.
cELLOR granted a Conditional Injuneiron, and the
case came on this day for further consideration.
Mr. RI cliAttos, for tl►e plaintiff, in continuation
otitis former argument, went. into a long statement
of the circumstances of the case:

Mr. WETHERAL, on the same side, observed;
that ,as a question of a general nature, it was a mat.
ter of tit; greatest irnportaece, in which all the
Publicationsetee similar nature were involved. lie
tettlerstortel tliett the Gentlemen on the other
,side intended to.vary the iaw Which had been este.
leisheeem this suekete by Tretations from a new
treatise celled The I.ldie e:Aluzyz.;Ne; but he could
not see %%lig-light -this ten* would. throw on the
business. He admitted that a Printer miet peb-
'idea daily'Newspaper,. under the sainenainel of
lhe Sun or .-17 ye star, provided he' do one epee,
either of those P,pers. The Defendant's Weer got
into a market entough a breach of tru,,t, eta was,
circulated treon• the basis of the terteoey of.tl t old
Work and his Lordilep having granted ate Injanc.
tion, he contended, the Plaintiff was entitled to re.
cover the profits: of the Work. It might be asked,
why they had not brought alt ielion: at law I There.
were three different ways of trying i cause-4)y
jury ; by Examination of Witnesses, or Intereoga.
tories ; and by the Inspection of a Judge : the' De.
fending, in his answer, might swear what he pleased;
but 'while he had his Lordship's octslar inspection
to tely upune •helelt he should. obtain every relief
which he sought, without any attion at laweeltt4tis
' arisever ,the Defendant ewere that the device on, the
wrapper of his bunk weS not the saw as the Plain.
tiff's, and there was a difference• of she& in the blue:
cover, the type was not the same,' and the external
mark, or appearance .was considerably varied.• It
tertaitily was true, the Colessuse. as represented on
the Plaintiff's Work, -area ecto feet:high, artileilie
leefentiarit's gave
.it only :7c) feet,' so far there eiai:'a
deviation ire the device; and, as to the colour of
the paper, the Defendant might swear ells coente.
mince as blue as his own paper, and assert that
the Work Was• a different and distinft Publication ;
yet, the Learned Counsel insisted; it 'was a mockery
to any ieee's sight to say ets : this iesemblanee was
too strong even to escape a superficial observer.—
It had also been contended, that this spurious Publi.
,cation was a succession, and nOt a continuation, of
the Plaintifles Work. It . might as welt -be' 'Said,
that Op: hour of . one o'clock in the afternoon,
coming, after twelve o'clock, was not a con.

trouble the Court with the merits .4:4 r either Work,
but eteereed, that in No. 22, of the Plaintiff's, a
great charaeter,had been represented, Which far` ex.
ceeded any other •ever heard of ; and, the Defendant,
having futmcl himself so far outstripped ire the mar.
vellous, by. the Plaintiff, had since chan4ed the name
of his book, and now calls it 'The Eccentric
zinee.

Mr..ROtOt.mrs. for the . Defendant, said, his
Learned letitat on the other. side was a little in
eitni with resped to his intention of quoting a new
work upon the-law of the .case, because 'he hap.
perked in see him reading a, book for his amusement ;
-or perhaps he was dipleasecl to find hini study ingThe
Lodire Magazine instead of tatendittg to his.very
learned. argument. ' Ott the part *fill! Client, how..
