W»ys used by the public, the Road would
be liable for uny damage that might ensue.
tEhe Road. io Ue oplnloo of the Court, was
bound to keep every way wall lighted for
the, benefit and safety of night passenger*.
These lizhte ought to be sufficient to show,
not only the platform, Its shape* and boun
daries, but also every obstruction npon it,
and, if necessary to the safety ofpasseugere
at night, it was the duty of defendant to fur-
nish, grades and instructions to the edge of
tbeir platform. The exercise of ordinary
diligence would require tho observance of
thfMA rules, and ovary Railroad for the
public aafety, h required atleist, that
fWr. ( *
The Court instructs you upon the seo-
ond question, as to what eare and dili-
genee the Raid should have exercised over
the paasengers, at least, until off thgjjplat-
.form. The law requires ti^at it should
hare been extraordinary. By extraordina
ry diligence I mean not only the furnish
ing of lights for night passengers and tiro
removal of every obstruction, but that “ex
treme care," 'in the language of the Code,
“which very prudent and thoughtful per
son*. take ; , fpr themselves.” It would seem
orosence of danger, could
that isstimoe to the exercise of ordinary
care. But, if he did know |t, R was his
duty to hare avoided it if possible, whether
informed by th* Road otr otherwise.
4th. Whose fault is it, Plaiotiff’« or De
fendant’s, or both? What is tho proof upon
this branch of tbe subject ?. The first rule
read from the decision of the Supremo
Court suppose* that, by the exercise of ordi
nary diligence, tbe Plaintiff might have
avoided to himself the consequence* of De
fendant’s neglect. In that ease, Plaintiff
would not be entitled to recover anything.
The n**t rule supposes that, by the exer
cise of ordinary diligence, the Plaintiff
could have avoided the damages. Io that
case, Plaintiff would he entitled to’recover
lass. If one was as much in fault as the
other, then the Plaintiff would be eotidod
to only half. It would seem from the rule,
that you are allowed t) say just how much
each is at iaolt, and find accordingly.
What is the extent of the damages ?—
The rulo is, as read by Plaintiff’s counsel,
the liril extant—mentally, physically and
socially. What is the condition of bis mind?
What is the amount of mental suffering?;—
What is the condition of his body ? What
is the extent of phyiiori disability and suf
fering, and what d image has he received
socially? If you should find, then, this re
sult caused by Defendant’s want, of cere,
charge th* Defendant with the valoe of tho
whole man, give him, the Defendant, credit
for what is left of him; and if yqq should
find Plaintiff at fkult, too, under the rules
already given yon—give Defendant credit
for that, too, remembering that if Plaintiff
conld have avoided the consequences by or
dinary care, he is to have nothing, provid
ed he had reason to suspect the presence of
istho l ‘
Whatever :
balance, if any,
‘ ‘ ' to. This
na
In ascertaining tho value of the amount
of damages Plaintiff his sustained, you will
be left very nearly to your owo judgment.
I can give you no ce rtain and weU defined
rule—qone is laid down in a case like this
any where. The very .character of the case
makes it difficult for a rule to be made
which would be applicable and easily com
prehended. You can take the rule in 38th
Ga., page434, as far as is applicable to this
ease, and say how much, nnder the proof,
Plaio tiff’s services ere worth to himself and
family per annum, estimating the probable
duration of his life, and adding to that what
ever, if anything, he may he entitled to, for
what pain suffered, and for loss of social
position. If the proof discloses to your
satisfaction the extent of the damage, the
Plaintiff will be entitled to recover to the
utmost The injuries pf efery character, of
course, must result from the injury received
by th* fall, and the fall must be the fault of
the Defendant, nnder tbe rulings here made.
Upon the subject of accident suggested
by the arguments of counsel, you are to
find whether the damage was tbe result of
accident or neglect If of neglect, in law
it could have been no accident If any
obstruction paq made, or permitted by the
Read by which any one was damaged—if
S could have avoided it, it ws
accident in the opinion of the Court

Tale of Tailors,
Who can tell when tailoring became a
distinct trade ? In toe 3d chapter of Gen-
sis, 31st verse, we are informed that ‘‘unto
Adam rod to his wife did the Lord God
make eoata of skin rod clothe them,” rod
from that limp to this tbe art of making
clothes has been carried on more or leas in
dime where there has existed the
slightest degree of civilisation; (till the In
ventions of thread rod needles are of com,
parative'y quite a modern date. The art
of paying a tailor promptly in these time*
is much more difficult of explanation than
the art of making clothes.

Protestant Christians, when invited toe
worldly conformity at variance with too
teachings of their ministers, would turn
promptly upon toe toviter, sating, “I am a
Christian.” It was sad to witness the in-
trodaction of toft meretrieieos speofts of

our country, and to see it patronised, by
many, from whom we looked for better
