willingly insure cattle and protect the buyer from any loss consequent upon 
the sale. In conclusion, his lordship said that the jury should look to the 
gradual development of the disease in the cattle of the plaintiff himself after 
they became mixed with the cattle sold by the defendant, and consider whe- 
ther, under all the circumstances, the plaintiff was entitled to their verdict. 
The jury retired, and in a few minutes returned with a verdict for the 
plaintiff upon all the counts — Damages £1000 sterling, 
MISCELLANEA. 
ALTERATION OF THE TIME OF HOLDING THE METROPO- 
LITAN MARKET FOR THE SALE OF HORSES. 
In consequence of the Cattle Market being now held on 
Thursday instead of Friday as heretofore, the Common 
Council of London has “ ordered, that from and after the 
5th of April, 1858, the market for horses, mules, and asses, 
shall be held as heretofore in the place appointed by the clerk 
of the market for that purpose, within the market-place, on 
Friday in each week, between the hours of ten o’clock in the 
forenoon and four o’clock in the afternoon, in lieu and stead 
of between the hours of one o’clock and four o’clock in the 
afternoon, except on Good Friday and on Christmas-dav 
when it falls on a Friday, and then the market shall be held 
on the previous Thursday, between the hours of one o’clock 
and four o’clock in the afternoon.” — Mark Lane Express.
