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.
