leave to defendant to amend his answer ia twenty

By Hon Judge Mitchell.
Valentine Benner Us. Charles Jordan.-From the
finding Of the jury, together with the undisputed
facts in the case, it appears that the plaintiff owned
a large public dwelling house an inn, in which he
entertained boarders and visters and that he rented
the store part Of the first floor Of building connect
ed with the public house, and part Of cellar, to the
defendant that the upper part of the building, part
Of which was leased) was occupied as part of the
inn; that the defendant entered and put in operation
in said store an endless chain horse power, upon
which horse was put to travel daily in the store;
that when the horse power was put in operation
there noise more or less annoying in the apart
ments adjoining the store. An injunction was OBJ
tanned shortly after and the jury found the damages
six cents. The plaintiff was entitled to his injunc
ton; but as the jury have found his damages to be
only six cents and the plaintiff charged the defen-
dsnt with causing nuisance BY noisome bones, Of
not entitled to costs Ordered that the Injunction
continue 30 far as the horse power, each party pay
his own costs, and the defendant pay plaintiff nix
cents.

A MUTE CONFERENCE.-The Montpelier Watch
man gives an account of the proceedings of Mute
Convention which assembled in that village on We'd
nesday last. It was composed Of some seventy or
eighty deaf mutes, of both sexes, from different
States, but principally from Vermont The objects
of the convention were mutual improvement and the
raising Of funds for the erection Of monument to the
memory of their much beloved teacher. The Watch
says the proceedings extremely interesting
ants of the village who witnessed the silent cemmu-
nication of ideas by signs and partook of the spirit
of devotion as prayer was offered to Him who hears
the thoughts Of the sincere heart readily when
veyed by signs as when uttered by the tongue.
