Dr.. &C. Carlisle against the c. g.
G. Railroad Company, damages for
burning 20 bales of cotton in the old
warehouse that was destroyed by fire
last June. The trial OF this case oc-
cupied the greater part of Wednesday,
and all day Thursday. The plaintiff
was represented by N. A. Carlisle,
Esq, ald the defendant, by MessfS.
Saber and Caldwell, and John c.
Haskell, Esq, the Attorney for the
road. The argument occupied hall
day, and the jury retired late Thurs
day evening. After remaining out
several hours. they found for the pl,in-
tiff, verdict for about one hall OF the
value of the cotton destroyed, We learn
that they decided that the railroad
company was 'shalf liable" and the
warehouse-man shalt liable" and
accordingly divided the value OF the
cotton by two.
The Judge granted new trial in
this case, feeling as he said, that the
jury evidently found compromise
verdict.
There are several cases OF the same
kind, against the r. R., but,they will
not be tried until the determination OF
this, which is likely to go to the Su-
preme Court,
The jurors were discharged on FRI
day morning, after trying eight cases
in six days. Court was engaged in
the discharge OF routine work, until
Saturday afternoon, at which time it
was adjourned, in time for the Judge
