The Court granted a rale toshow cause why ¢ mandamus should not issue to the @lerke of the County Court, requiring him to grant an appeal. Rule returnable 31s ‘George Dixon vs. James Gorman—T his Wisan action which had been tried last Hilary Term before Mr. Justice Hodgson and -a common jury. John snd James Gorman had given a note of hand for $200 to the Merchants Bank of Halifax. ‘ILe note had been discounted by John Gorman and the money paid tohim. When it be- came due, John paid $40 on ac2ount and ve a note of $160 of himself and George Cine. He also paid the discount on the last note, and the interest for ten days on the balance of the $200 note. John failed and went into insolvency before the last mote feil due. Dixon paid it and received the $200 from the Bank together with his own note of $160, and then brought an action on the $200 note against James Gorman. Two defences were relied on; First, that when the $160 note was given the $200 note was paid in full, so that the agent of the bank by en- dorsing it could not give a right to sue upon it; and secoudiy, that time had been given on the $200 note without James’ knowledge or consent,and,he being th«|:ure- ty, and this fact being known tothe bank, James was discharged from al! liability. Che jury found a verdict for Dixon for #160, the balance due on the $200 note, Un a motion for a new trial, Mr. Justice Hodgson reported that he was not satisfied with the verdict, and a rule was given to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside or a non-auit entered. The Attorney-General and Mr. H.C. Macdonald appeared fur the plaintiff and Mr. D. C. McLeod and Mr. Jebnston for the defendant. The case occupied the whole day. The Chief Justice in giving judgment said he thought the evidence in favor of the defendant so greatly overbalanced that of the plaintiff that the verdict must be set aside. He thought that there was no evidence that the $160 note had been given as collatral security for the $200 note; so that the bank might hold both as security for the debt. It was true that Mr. Arnaud, the bank agent, had eworn that he so conside. ed it, but he could not find from the evidence that had been given the parties to understand this, and if the verdict had been for the de- fendant it would not have been. inconsia- tent with Mr. Arnaud’s evidence, for the question was not what Mr. Arnaud thought or understood, but what did all the parties | understand. He thonght the verdict should | be set aside. | Mr. Justice Hodgsou concurred with the | Chief Justice. It was true, he said, that | a verdict should not be set aside merely because the Judge disapproved, and |would, if he had been trying the case, have found a vwr'e: -the other way. The court must be con- vinced that there hal been a miscarriage of justice, which in this case he thought there had been; and that the verdict was one that reasonable men ought not to have brought in. The evi- dence was £0 strongly in favor of the de- fendant, that to allow the present verdict to stand would be a perversion of justive. [t seemed to him that the evidence was overwhelming that the $160 note hai been received in payment of the balance due on the $200 note. In the past due-bill book the bank had marked the $200 note paid. The proceeds of the $169 note were debited to cash in the cath book, and although it was the duty of the agency to furnish the head office in Halifax with a list of overdue notes, yet when the weekly list was furnished the $200 was not reported as overdue, clearly showing that the agent considered it paid, aud in the discount sheet the $160 note was reported as Laving been discounted. It was true that banker’s accounta were somewhat hard to understand, but he was hardly prepared to consider every entry as meaning the exact opposite of what it stated. The verdict could not be allowed to stand, and must be set aside. NEWS FROM THE MAGDALENS, (Special correspondence of Taz Examixen.) Grixpstong Isi_anp, Magdalen Islands, Apri! 19, 1894. | As we have been notified that our mail | steamer St. Olaf would leave Pictou to- | day, ice permitting, I thought I would drop you a few lines, after a space of four | dreary and stormy months. I say stormy | and dreary, because it has really been a very severe and blustery winter. A great many years have passed since we have had so much snow, and so little rain during the winter. Nevertheless, I am glad to inform you that we have ex- ; perienced very little or no sickmess, ! excepting a mild type of diptheria’ which was prevalent among+t children Ja:t fall. Being contagious, it unfortunately got into ten or twelve houses on the islands, causing the death of ten or twelve young children. But thanks to the muncipal authorities, | who took the matter in hand, acd the ex- ertions of our M. D., P. P. Delaney, it has | been subdued. No new cases have de- veloped since the 25th March. Every house, where the disease was, or had been, was quarantined for a certain time and then thoroughly cleaned and fumi- gated, under the supervision of the medi- eal g ntleman before named. I must uot omit to tell you that last fall, about the latter part of the old year, we experienced a very heavy north east gale, | with'a tremendous high tide, which took a }emall schooner out of House Harbor, | where she had been laid up in winter quarters, She drifted with the wind and | sea to Cheticamp,C. B., where she still | lies. Two other vessels, belonging to | Messrs. W. Leslie & i Co., _ nar- |rowly escaped ebaring the same fate; obut’- they. being loaded - with | freight which was brought too late last fall ta,be discharged, outside in Pleasant Bay, and was intended to be haulel by sledges on the ice in winter, as is custom- ary. Their being loaded, caucel them to draw more waterthan the light vessel, whi h went adrift, so they grourided on the out- side bar, and when the storm moderated | were towed back into the harbor. ] The seal fishery has been fairly good on Island, where they killed and landed about ala te 5,500 young harp seal*; and at Grosse [ele an:l Vicinity they ee yourg seals. per man. At Etangidm. Nord or Grindstone none were taken. “A few old seals were killed at Amherst. The echoon- ers, thirteen in number, left here for the sealing business on the 26th of last March, and have not returned yet, “The last ac- counts we had from them they were not getting much. This they attribute to the constantly prevailing easterly and nortb- easterly winds and fog. Preparations are now being made for the lobster fishery. As soon as the ice leaves the shores, and berring secured, it is who will get trawls down first to secure the best fishing grounds.

The Carriage of this Machine coatains many practical improvements, the useful- nees of which will at once be «wpparent, Among those specially worthy of mention are the following: — The new and improved Release Key, whereoy tie carriage can be released as well when raised as when lowered, and can be positively stopped at a given point without the allowance of a single space for momentum. This instantaneous stop- ping will undoubiedly Le much appre- cioted by rapid operators. A new arrangement fur making Single, Double and Triple spaces. A new and improved Paper Feed, which is admirable both for its simplicity and the impossibility of getting out of adjust- ment. A line can be written clear to the bottom of the paper. Still another feature is the new Space Key, which has a Perpendicular Drop, the same as the rest of the keys. Besides the improvements, this Machine and ains all the good points of our No. 1 cont No. 2 Machines. The speed of the Yost can be limited only by the ability of the operator to find and properly sirike the keys. This we guarantee. In other words, its mechanism is con- trived to respond instantly to the touch of the operator by the adoption of certain ex- pediente, by the use of which— lst.
