COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY,

(Nisi Prime Sittings in London before Lord_LymorsuasT
and a Common Jury.)
PERRY V. STOCKBRIDGE.
This action was brought to recover the value of a horse,
sold by the defendant, for 211. to the plaintiff, who is a
confectioner in the Borough, upon a warranty.
Mr. J, WILLIAMS and Mr. CauairroN appeared for
the plaintiff, and the case made out by them was,—that
the horse was bought while dawn at Walthamstow at
grass, in the beginning of December. He was delivered by
the defendant upon the 17th of December, when the
warranty was again renewed. He was not driven for two
days after, when he was taken out and went a round of
about seven miles. He then showed Breit symptoms of
distress, coughing and running very much at the nose.
Plaintiff only drove him three times, when he called in a
farrier, but the horse pined away and died on the 10th Dec.
The case was proved by the servants of the plaintiff. In the
ct•oss-eaaminatton, it was shown that the journeys the 'Anse
went were about 21 milt s altogether, and that during the 7
or sight hours he was left very frequently at the doors of
plaintiff's customers. Two veterinary surgeons, who saw
the lungs of the horse, said the inflammation must have
been formed for five or six weeks previous to death.
Mr. Sergeant ANDREWS (with whom was Mr. THES•
SIDER) then addressed toe Jury for the defendant, aid
contended that there had been no warranty ; the defend-
ant might have said be believed the 'torte was sound, but
in law that would not do. He commented strongly on
the evidence, and said the horse had been bought by the
defendant in the month of May to serve him in the Surrey
Yeomanry ; but as he did net answer for that purpose—
war nut beautiful enough—he wished to dispose of him,
arid was introduced to the plaintiff by one of the witnesses
But his case was, that he was petlectly sound, and he
would prove it by evidence of the former possessors.
The cause of the disease was the very treatment which
the plaintiff had given it.
Mr. I3owring sold the horse to defendant in May, for
241. without any warranty, he was then as sound a horse
as any in the country.
Mr. H. May of Walthamstow—the horse was at grass
n his park, it left his premises on the 17th December,
and lie believed it wasierfeetly sound.
L James Matthews was gruow to defendant, and bad th

enough.
Mr. Witt lAN'S declined to reply, and the Jury, after a
Alert consultation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—
Damages 211. 18s.

and South American Coffee house.
(From the Singapore Papers.)
The arrivals of this week have not furnished us with
any late intelligence ; dulaess of trade and oppressive wea.
ther seem to form the principal topic at present. It
cannot be denied that there seldom ever existed in this
market such a want of activity, or such a dearth of
business as at the present season. As we soon hope to be
able to publish the annual statements of the trade, ending
the 30th ult., we may then offer some remarks on the
probable causes of this deficiency.
We are happy to find that the schooner Zephyr has at
