T. C. NISBET, Esq.—Dear Sir : I am using one of your Horse Powers for ginning my cotton. It has been in use about three years, and lias ginned about four hundred bales of cotton. I think it well adapted to ginning. I gin two bales a day on a forty-saw gin and with two mules. My gin is situated in an old negro cabin and the power is placed outside. J. A. OBME. Prlteof Borne Power, with IRON FRAMES—Guaranteed, ..... 810000 G. M. Stokes vs. Duncan O. Johnson. As sumpsit and motion for new trial, from Lee. MoCay, J.—Where it appeared from the record that Stokes, a country merchant, had, under a contract with a neighboring planter, advanced supplies and money to make a crop, and he was to have control of the same, and to bo first paid from the proceeds ; that during tho summer Duncan O. JohnsoD, commission mer chant at Savannah, also advanced supplies and money to the planter, with notice of Stokes’ claims, it being understood tbnt cotton would bo cent to them at Savannah for sale, out of which they would be paid; all the parties be lieving tbnt a crop of 300 or 350 bales would be mado ; that on October the 15th, after 39 bales had been sent to DnncAn O. Johnson, Stokes wrote him a letter stating that the planter wanted somo money, and desired his cotton to bo sold as it arrived, nnless they would advance upon it, nnd hold it for a better market, and adding, that as the planter owed half of them, it was proposed as a mutual arrangement, that as any cotton was sold, Duncan O. Johnson Rhould pay its expenses, and tbe balance should be divided between them, to-wit: Duncan O. Johnson, and Stokes, on their insurance debts; that afterwards other cotton was sent to Dnnorih O. Johnson, and they sold tho whole, nay SO bags, paying expenses and sending half the proceeds to Stokes, and retaining half on their debt, which ot the time, was thus discharged; that Duncan O. Johnson, expecting further shipments, from the expectation of the crop, and from third understanding of Stokes’ letter, made further advances to tho planter. That Stokes, finding the crop wonld be only 175 bales instead of 300 or 350, by direction of the planter, and to save himself, sent forward the balance of the cotton to other Savannah merchants, and sold the same, and took the whole of tbe proceeds on his own debt. Held, That there was nothing in the letter of Stokes of October 15th, to bind him to send forward the whole of the crop to Dancan O. Johnson, and it was error in the court to charge the jnry that he was so bound. Held further, That under all the facts as set forth in the reoord, the verdict was sustained by the evidence, and the court erred in granting a new trial. Hawkins & Bntke, John H. West, by R. H.
