OBITUARY. 
His Honour summed up the evidence in a very lucid manner, 
drawing the attention of the jury to the two points for their 
decision, namely, whether there was a warranty, and if so, 
wdiether it had been broken, as alleged, by the plaintiff. 
The jury, without retiring, almost immediately returned a 
verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed, and his 
Honour, on the application of Mr. Small, granted the costs.

MISCELLANEA. 
THE MASTER TEACHER. 
The teacher of first-class excellence is one who can dis- 
criminate, disentangle, separate; who can make truth and 
error, right and wrong, be discerned apart ; who can mark 
out their boundaries, set the understanding right, and teach 
the affections where they may safely wind their flexile shoots. 
These are offices of the utmost importance, and nothing can 
be more desirable than to have qualifications to execute them 
aright. 
OBITUARY. 
We have to commence the year with the recording of 
another having passed from among us. Mr. George White, 
M.R.C.Y.S., Lichfield, died December 3, after a short ill- 
ness, aged 34. His diploma bears date April 29, 1846. 
From a letter we have received it would seem that Mr. 
White was much respected by his employers. Thus each in 
his turn obeys the behest of the too often dreaded king of 
terrors, Death ; whose dark and silent empire, dim and 
shadow*y, lies — 
“ Beyond the path of changing moon or sun. 
Or where the stars their noiseless journey run.” 
We have the pleasure of announcing that since our last 
we have had the gratification of seeing Mr. A. Johnston, V.S., 
2nd Regiment of Regular Cavalry, Bengal Presidency, who 
was reported dead in our number for November last. We 
need hardly add that w>e copied the statement of his death 
from the public journals, his name appearing among the 
“ casualties ” in the Company’s service.
