Records tried, the principal of which was an adinn
brought by Jrhn and Henry Maxwell, Uri againft
the Consmiffionets for enclofing the Commons of
Dromifkin, to recover damages for an alledged injury
done to the mill of the Defendant at Dungoogan,
near Dundalk, by reafon of certain cuts which had
beer; made by the Commiffioners, for the purpofe of
draining Paid Commons t and which the Plaintiffs
complatned had drawn off a large portion of water,
which would otherwile have flowed to their mill, and
that in confequence of -laid dirertion, they had cape.
rienced a failure of water and had therefore not
been able to grind as mud:corn at their mill as for-
merly.
The Comenitfinners endeavoured to fhew that the
defalcation of profit, of which Plaintiffs complained,
was occafinned by tint eredion of the corn mill at
Annagalkin. by Achefon Thompfon, Efq. and not
by the making of the cuts complained of.
The trial lafled two days, having been adjourned
by content at eleven o'clock at night, on the firfi day.
The Jury found a rerdill for the Plaintiff, in Sol.
damages, and cons as ufual.

tinue the profecution of him—this evidence appearing
contradiaory to the teflimony of profecutrix in this
particular, and thereby throwing a (bade of doubt
upon the mite teflimony of profecutrix, although
tie tWer pieces of evidence might be reconciled, was
explained by the Learned Judge in his charge to the
Jun.
After a long and patient invefligation of the cafe,
the Learned Judge charged the Jury at confiderable
length, recapitulating the whole of the evidence, and
°blueing upon it rather in favour of the prifoner,
principally on the ground of the afortfaid contra.
diAion.
The Jury retired at hail Pat (even o'clock, and
flier a little deliberation, returned with a vcrdia of
Not Guilty. The trial Idled nine hours.
On the following motitii,g, the Judge ordered the

prifoner to be brdnght to the bar, and then addrefred
him in a mnfi eloquent and impreUlve lefron ; in the
courfe of which he laid, that although he entirely ap-
proved ni the verdia of the Jury, he was by no means
f.tisfied that the prifoner was innocent, but the con-
trary ; and he believed alto, that this was the im-
me(fion upon the minds of the Jury, who, he believed,
founded their verdia rather nn the doubt of the guilt
of the pt 'inner, than the certainty of his innocence.
Thefe Adizes proved maiden, there being no ca-
pital conviaion at them.
