of pittafield, Saratoga county, io this State,
let Perkins & Brown have a large quantity
jof wool, upon wbich P. it B. made advance*;
the price of wool aooa want down, and P
it B. claimed that they bed advanced to Mr
W some «Ó000 more than the value of the
wool they had of him ; they brought suit
gainst Mr. Warren for the alleged over-
plus advanced ; Mr. W. set op for the ana-
wer that lie sold the wool outright to plain-
tifla, and that it waa not a sale on coounis-
sion. The «oit waa commenced in |850 by
J Whipple Jenkina, th«n of Vernon, aa
attorney for Perkine A Brown ; Timothy
Jenkina w s the counsel ; the caae waa
referred to Judjje Dean ; the trial of the
case occupied thirty-seven days; the referee
reported in favor of the plaintiff, from which

000 balea of cotton stored in snd about
Liverpool, and in order to watch the" "Ware-
honses efficiently, and prevsnt fires, tweifiy
additional police officers had been added tó

hose bsd been placed in stock at the various

of cotton ia supposed to add greatly to the
danger of 6rea ¡ and mnch had been said on
the subject to induce this incresse of pre-
qaution. Among other things, H is stated

employed to cleanse the chimney of the

were iu the utmost alarm ; the boy tremb*
ling from ft-ar of chaatisement, and the
lawyer from terror of the sooty appritwn.
At length the former spoke in an unearthly, obeyed,
tone :—
