COUNTE% OP DIEVGDEN V. POTTER,
The Countess, a Russian Lady,
Bayles, in Buckinghamshire, had occlt
of some of her stock of sheep, and sent
London to be ,nld, uniler time care of her ,
Michaelson, mil,. brought them to Paddington M.
ket on the 3(rtli of December last. He applied to the
Defendant, a salesman, who undertook to sea them
next day at Smithfield, which he did at an underprice,
viz. 12s. per head ; but v:hen Michaelson applied to
him for the m:r.ey, the Defendant told him he has
sure he had stolen them ; ap.d Who troubled him az,
more about the matter he would have him taken
gs a sheep stealer. Michaelsen had been offerd 24;".
a-head for them before he left home ; and on the road
he had been offered 28s. it for a score of then,
Robert Tarren, a sheep dealer, had, in May and No.
vember last, offered 245. for them ; they were nom.
sheep, and rather poor.
For the Defendant, several salesmen and botches,
Were called, who proved that the sheep were poor,
and that 13s. was a fair price ; but, after a most e,
cellent charge from Lord ELLPNCOROUGH, the Jury,
without hesitation, found .a verdict for the Plaine
Damages 221.
His Lordship observed, that he hoped this verdict
would prove an important lesson to salesmen, and de.
stroy combinations, which had been too often and too
successfully formed to take advantage of the turas.
pecting farmer. Com',lnations of this sort would
never answer the purpose, as they were easily seen
through in a Court of Justice.

Lord Sostratvuxes Cattle Shew commenced yes.
terday. The cattle were uncommonly fine, and the
alendance of amateurs was very gnat.
Next Tuesday the State Lottery begins Drairin
and as there are no Capital Prizes fixed for my Is.
tant days, those who purchase before the drawing be.
gins, have an evident advantage over those who buy
after, as all the Capitals may be drawn the tint day,
T. Bisst, therefore, advises the public to purchase as
early as possible at his old established Offices, Nc.l,
Cornhill, and 9, Charing Cross, where 38 Capital
Prizes were Shared and Sold in the last year, including
two Prizes of 30,0001.—Prizes paid on demand.
A million of money has frequently been subscribed
in a few days towards establishing Breweries, I.listil
lerics, Life and Fire Insurance Offices, &c. in ex•
pectation of great advantages. A subscription isms
opened, which will be filled on or before Tuesday
next, on which day many of the subscribers leill de-
' rive important advantages far beyond any preload
heretofore submitted to the public. Holton and
Co. beg leave to inform the Clubs, Societies, and is
Subscribers, that the beneficial Tickets and
Shares in the Lottery may be obtained at their nib
established State Lottery Offices, %,
Charing-cross, and St. Margaret's-hill, Borough.
The Success of Spilsbury's Patent Antiscorbutie
Drops, in Screphulous and Eruptive Diseases, may
perhaps be explained by its removing any injtiriom
matter that obstructs the action of the absorbent
glands • for it is a fact, in all cases in which the me-
dicir e has' been most successful, the discharge at fast
is much increased, (if eruptive more violent) till the
matter advances to health, in colour and consistency,
with an improved state of the appetite. Even this is
the case in elderly people, who from want of Si
have frequent ulcerations on the extremities. The
effects of the medicine on Scurvy, Gout, and they
matism are well known. It is requested you will ask
for the Patent Antiscorbutic Drops, with a black
ik
stamp, in bottles of ss. 6d. double bottles 10s.
larger 11. 2s. duty included. An allowance on taking
half a dozen.
