VETERINARY JURISPRUDENCE. 
Mr. Jeykes, of Newton, said he found the horse after it had 
been turned out of Mr. Milling’s stables by Mr. Topham’s ne¬ 
phew. He knew the horse very well. He afterwards examined 
the horse with Mr. Collier, a veterinary surgeon, who is now in 
Dublin, who said he was perfectly sound. The horse was ex¬ 
amined by several different people. Witness has kept him since 
he found him turned out. He is a good feeder, and of sufficient 
pace to trot ten or twelve miles an hour. He is not groggy’^ 
before. The horse is sound now. 
Mr. Walters, a practising veterinary surgeon, examined the 
horse on the 17th of last March, and pronounced him sound. 
Thick wind is always permanent: a temporary cough is not un¬ 
soundness. If he wanted such a horse now, he would not scru- 
])le to give £40 for him. 
Mr. Hayes, veterinary surgeon, of Chester, examined the horse 
on the same day as the last witness did. He was sound. Thick 
wind, in his opinion, is always permanent. A temporary disease 
is not unsoundness. The horse is worth £40. 
Mr. Wm. Fish, farrier at Chester forty years, and Mr. Owen 
Coyle, farrier at Chester fifteen years, gave similar evidence ; the 
latter stating in addition that Milling gave £50 for the horse.— 
Mr. Ince gave the same evidence. 
The jury were here invited to take a view of the horse, which 
had been brought into the Castle-yard. Counsel, jury, and 
nearly every other person, immediately sallied out to inspect him. 
His appearance was that of perfect health. 
The Judge summed up decidedly in favour of the plaintiff, but 
the jury returned a verdict for the defendant. 
PEDIGREE. 
Report of M. Yvart, Arbiter, 
To the President and Judges composing the Tribunal of Commerce 
in the Department of the Seine* 
Gentlemen,— By your decree of the 11th of November, 1831, 
with reference to a dispute between M. C. L. and Mad. C., you

fair to an amicable conclusion, if possible ; and, if I fail in that, 
to make my report to you, and tender my opinion on the matter 
in controversy. 
Agreeably to your decree, I have examined the parties, and 
their witnesses, but have been unable to settle the dispute; and 
now submit to you the facts of the case, and the opinion which 
1 have founded on them.
