This was the first e;toSe tried in Abe city of Lim-
don under this set. of Parliament, and I ifeetAtn'e
excited a tonsiderable_ degree of, interest. The
property which was the-sail:l.lva of the present trial
comprehends the line. of bilildinge on the Cast-side
of Qiieen-street,, from, the corner :of Upper
Th.oues-street down to the river,,and ittglinfes in
it Three Cranes what t. Fought: freehold of this
p).operty (the greatest-part of tvltich has subsist 7
liagleases, of diffeient periods as tadorationi upon
it) .the Merchant-'Tailors' Company demanded also
soot of 25,0001. and for which, the Sou
Bridge Company offered the sum tif 1513301,
The ATTottNn--GeNasat., on ,the part of the
plaintiffs, entered somewhat at large into the on-
Hire of the (potion before the Court; He expati-
, uted on the great value of the land in Aitiestion,
which consisted, principally, of a wharf along the
banks of the fiVela tutu contended that the sum
demanded by his clients, viz. 24,996/.175. was
not tog) high a-valuation. The- paltry sum of
15,331/. was indeed only offered
,by the South-
wark Bridge Company, allowing for all ex peaces ;
but he would tall most respectable sot-veyors, and
other witnesses, Who would without hesitation
state, that the sum demanded was a fair and just
valuation, His clients did nut 'wish to part with

the property, but the law
.had directed that they
must do so, and then it would be for, the Jury to
take care that private individuals should not sulf6r
in these great undertakings.
Mr. Alsatota.i and Mrs GURNIIY, on the same
side, called several witnesses in support of the
plitiotjff's case : the first of whom Was Mr. &t-
-imid 4obinion§ a surveyor, who proved that he
had hiien Called upOn by the Merchant Taylors'
Company to make a fair valuation of the proper-
ty. The estimate vas Made first upon the pre-
s'ent rental ; next upon the improved rental, when
the leases now granted to several persons had ex-
pired. mita of the land having been let upon
nuilding leases ; _and lastly, upon the fair and
jit`st value of the whole, taking the repairs and
other cironnstances into consideration. Ott these
principles he bad (mold the present annual rental
to be 5161.; bad estimated the improved rental at
2,0234.15 a. ; and the whole Value of the property
at 24,996 d. 17s. .
The second Witness called was .Mr. W. Monta-
gue, also a surveyor, who differed in a slight de-
gree from the statement' of Mr. Robinson, and
who, taking the ptesent rent to be 5161.; owl
having e3timatea the improved rent to be 2,0151.
the total value would be 24i5131.
_ .

Upon cross-exaruination lie said, that the Cor-
r4.lrs., ion of the t; ity of Lossioxi ,A,l4en sot ettitn.'
peiled, to IA land, 114 t t 4440 4221 t ears' pr.
dorm ; but %Olen obliged to tell, it only obtumed

from 15 to 16 years'a parchase.
Air. G. Smith am: Mr. Hoggart, also surveyors,,
proved to the same effect.
Mr. Robert Smith, Mi. Barber, and Mr. Hall,
whartingers, estimated the Three Cranes ‘Vharl,
which is part of the property in question, to be
worth 1,2001 alear, although this part of the
property was sold by auction for 60001., 'yet it
was worth 12001. a•year ; and they would give it.
The case on the part of the plaintiffs bring here
closed, Mr. eijea it BEST addressed the Jury Ott
behalf of the Southwark Bridge Company. He
contended that the calculations of the Gentlemen'
who had been employed to survey this property
were wild and impossible to be credited. How
.was It possible to form any guess of the worth of
buildings 25 year hence ? Could any person pre.
tend to give his judgment upon it with any degree
of accuracy ? And yet thcse Gentlemen, with all.
the coolness imaginable, boldly told the Court that
they had formed an estimate,• and pretended to
have been able to calculate to a shilling the value
'of such property ; and had determined, that what
now was worth only 5161.. would/ in 25 years
hence, be worth 2,0091. He concluded rather a'
long speech by endeavouring to persuade the Gen-.
'kitten of the Jury that the sum of 15,0001: tarred
to the Company was amply sufficient.
After a recapitulation of the evidence; the Jury
retired for about a quarter of an hour, and returned
a verdict 0f"24,5001..
