RESCRIP {.
Whitehouse, j.
lin an action for fraudulent represen-
tations in the sale Of letters patent for
the manufacture of harness buckles, posi-
tive statements made by the defendant as
of his own knowledge in relation TO the
cost of manufacturing the buckles are
material as directly affecting the value
OF the right to manufacture them.
2.-Ihe buckle was Il novel mechanical
contrivance or device and had no estab-
lished market price The jury would not
have been authorized to find that the
plaintiff WAS chargeable with want of
ordinary care and vigilance In relying
upon the defendants statement of their
cost 1t is not error to refuse to give an
instruction which, though correct as an
abstract principle, is not called for by the
facts in evidence.
3.-Testimony as to statements made
out OF court by buokle-makars concern
ing the cost of manufacturing this buckle,
was not legally admissi Bile; but it tended
TO corroborate the defendants own testi-
mony in court, and hence he was not
preiudiced by its Introduction.
4'-The Chicago letter does not appear
to have been legal evidence at any stage
of the trial, and was properly excluded
Sin actions of deceit the falsity and
fraud on the part of the defendant consist
in stating that he knows the taots to be
true of his own knowledge when he has
not such knowledae; and he may be liza
Bile although he believed and had reason
able use to Lslieve his representations
to be trus.
The facts do not warrant the interven-
ton OF the court to set aside the verdict
as against the evidence or because the
damages are excessive.
Motion and exceptions overruled.

Whitehouse. j.
LIN these Gases the Verdicts for the
defendant were rendered against the posi-
tive testimony of the plaintiff, against
the probabilities in her favor arising
from the relations formerly existing be-
tween her husband and herself, and the
husbands course of dealing with his
wife in respect to his property, and
against the husbands own declaration
made under oath during his examination
as a Judgment debtor in New York;
and il is the opinion of the court that
they ought not to be permitted to stand.
AIN an action of repleyin the writ
must specify the particular property to
be replevined and describe it with a
reasonable degree of certainty, III order
that the property may be identified and
delivered to the plaintiff. Where the
property is described as five barrels,
thirteen boxes and two crates" without
any mention whatever of their contents,
and the plaintiff has no title to the
barrels, boxes and crates themselves, no
recovery can be had for any part of their
contents. Nor is the writ amendable for
reasons stated in the opinion.
The rulings upon these points were cor
rect. but upon the motion the entry in
each case must be
.Motion sustained; new trial granted. :"

Another Solomon.

A horse dealer in Scotch town hav-
ing hired a horse to an attorney, the
latter, either through bad usage or some
other cause, killed the horse, when the
dealer insisted upon payment by bill
If 1t was not convenient to pay cash.
The attorney had no objection to grant
a bill, but said it must be at long
date. The dealer told him to fix his
own time, when the attorney drew a
promissory note, making it payable on
the day of Judgment. An action was
raised, when the attorney asked the
presiding judge to look at the bill Hav-
ing done SO, the judge replied: "The
bill is perfectly good, and as this is
the day of judgment | decree that you
pay tomorrow" Spare Moments.

Remedy for Lice on Hogs.

A well-known veterinarian gives the
Rural World the kerosene emulsion
formula, as the best all around remedy
for lice on hogs. 1t should be applied
through sprinkling can, and if the
sides and bottom of the pen are given
a good spraying also, it will help ma
terially in ridding the hogs of this
troublesome pest. The emulsion is made
as follows: Hard soap, one-half pound;
boiling water. one gallon; kerosene,
two gallons; dissolve the soap IN the
water, add the kerosene, and churn with
pump for five or ten minutes. To this
add 20 parts water, to one of the emul-
sion when it is ready to be applied on
the hogs.
