probability ofsuch a state of things GER
tainly deserves reflection. We have
not considered the subject attentively,
but, if our ideas are not extremely i'm
mature, we should presume that the
people now occupying the settlements
beyond the Mississippi would them
selves approve the change which we
have here hastily suggested; and were
the question to come before congress,
as we hope it will, we are persuaded
that there are many views other than
those glanced at above, which might

Troyer for a Sleo bank note. The
case was, that plaintiff being indebted to
defendant in the sum of ten dollars,
was absent from home when Rose called
for the money The wife of the plaintiff
handed him ten dollar note which he
refused to receive. She then presented
him with small bundle Of bills, and
told him to take his debt out OF it. He
took the hundred dollar bill in question,
and left the house, informing the lady
that the bill he had taken suited him. 1t
appeared in evidence that Rose made no
secret of his having obtained the bill as
he did, but on the contrary, when setting
his accounts with one of his nelghbors,
he cautioned him not to cheat himself
GAS Mrs. Blair had" 1t was also in
proof, that defendant confessed to scve-
ral persons that he obtained the bill from
Mrs. Blair, and that it was Of the value
which the face purported it to be.
After a very interesting argument,
wherein Patton forplaintiff, and MLean
contra,vied with each other in eloquence
and skilful management, the case went
to the jury, who,presently returned with
a verdict for the plaintiff, with one hum
dred and twenty dollars, damages.
A motion was afterwards made for a
new trial, on the grounds of the verdict
being contrary to evidence, and the da-
images excessive; but by the court: We
will not grant new trial in this case.
1t was the province of the jury to say
what damages the evidence and clrcum-
stances would warrant; and it is gene
pal rule not to interfere by granting a
new trial, where it is apparent that no.
thing more than justice has been done.
