The cold sea-fog that came whitening down
Was novor as cold or wliito as they.
“Ho, Stailuck and Pinckney and Tenterden.
Kun for your shallops, gathor your men,
Scatter your boats on the lower hay.
Good cause for fear! In tbo thick midday
The hulk that lay by the rotting pier.
Filled with the children in happy play,
Parted Its moorings and drifted clear.
Drifted clear beyond reach or call—
Thirteen cldldren there were in all—
All adrift in tbo lowor bay!
Bald a bard-faced skipper, "God help us all!

Said Ills wife, “Uy darling will bear my call,
Whether in sea or Ileavcn alio abide.'*
And she lifted a quavering voice and high.

Through channels whose waters nevor fail.

nr.UVEBH) AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, AUGUST 22,1871.
From the Atlanta Constitution.]
South Carolina Railroad Company et. al. vs.
H. H. Steiner et al Injunction from Rich
mond.
Locquake, O. J.—Wo hold from tho facts dis
closed by this record that equity may take ju
risdiction by bill in tho nature of a bill of peace,
under section 3ICG of tho Code, and bring all
the parties, plaintiffs and defendants, into tho
fornm, and adjast their equities and several
rights by one decretal verdict, and the inquiry
upon tho truth of such case, to cover, not only
their past, but future damages, so as to stop all
future or further litigation in or abont tho same
subject matter, and operate as a complete in
vestiture of tho legal right, freo from further
claim of damages to the railroads in their uso
of Washington street Augusta, for railroad pur
poses, by steam power, within the legitimate
scope of the legislative right granted to them
upon their compliance with tho verdict:
Held, That tho act of tho municipal authori
ties, sanctioned by the Legislature, gives to the
railroad companies tho right to nse the street
in controversy. But the failure by the Legisla
ture to provide for the assessment of damages,
by way of compensation to tho property owners
on said stroet, 'does not tako away the right of
the party to his suit at law for damages under
seotion 2002 of the Codo.
Held again, That while tho uso of a public
street may be granted to railroads to lay bare of
iron on to rnn over with trains, without-endan
gering tbo streot by obstructions or embank
ments, yet if tho nso of locomotives infliols in
jury upon those who live on the street, by
throwing smoke throngh tho houses along the
streets, or by its weight shaking them or break
ing the plastering or walls, oto, and by tho
noiso and soroochiDg of whistles and engines,
the legislative right to run over tho street does
not make snch acts harmless, and tho injury in
flicted upon the legal rights of tho parties is not
daianun absque injuria. Upon tho trial tho
rule of evidence should be limited to actual
damage, the right to use tho streot with reason
able obstruction in the passage of trnins is per
mitted by law, and is not an clement of damage,
nor is the jolting over tho iron rail an dement,
nor tho apprehension of tbo safety of children,
nor aro possibilities in cases of sickness, nor
any inconvenience to visitors not obstructing
ingress or egress, nor any fancifnl or speculative
damages, or sentimental injuries elements of
damage. Bat tho darango which tho law ro-
cognizes mast bo actual, tangibln and determin
able by proof, and tho depreciation of tho pro
perty not only from obstructions to access, bnt
by smoke, and injury to walls, etc., and trace
able as effect from cause and tho like may be
inquired into to form the total of the injury.
Judgment affirmed so for ns equitable juris
diction is sustained and tho suit at law enjoined
and reversed as to the conditions required to be
filed in writing.
Judgment affirmed.
