PART FIRST. Before Honorable Judge Campbell. ACTION AGAINST OMNIBUS PROPRIETORS. Nov. 9.—danwah Brophy, admimtstratrix of Johs Brophy, deceased vs. Solomon Kipp and Abraham Brown.—This was an action brought by the pale against the defendants for causing the death of her busband by the negligence of cheir agent or servant. It appeared from the statement of the osse, made rt. Edmond Blankman, counsel on of the plaintiff, tbat the defendants are licensed propri- etors of a line of stages through this city, and that on the 3d of November, 1851, one of omnibus- tes was negligently driven over the deceased, who was trampled down by the horses, at the corner of Canal ; and Greene streets, und dragged along the street for a considerable distance, by means of which he was so injured that after lingering about three days died. Mr. Blankman contended that the death of John Brophy was caused by the wrongful neglect of the defendent’s agent, and that they are there- fore liable for damages. Tho learned counsel made # forcible and eloquent appeal on behalf of the poor widow and her three helpless ehildren— the youngest of whom was but seven months old, and the eldest about five years, at the. time of the occurrence—who bave been deprived of their only support by the reckless and careless conduct of the detendant’s employee. The deceased wae about | thirty-eight years of age, and at the time of his death was in’a lucrative business, by which he was enabled to maintain his family comfortably. Da- mages were laid at $5,000. The defence is, the accident was owing to the negligence of the di ceased himeclf. Thejury were unable to agree, and were discharged. [This is the second time the case has been tried with the same result; and it is worthy of remark, that Mr. Wanmaker, the counsel who ap- eS for the defence on the last occasion, was imeelf killed by an omnibus, within a day or two after the trial. i | | | PART SECOND. Hon. Judge Duer. Nov. 11.—Action on Contract.—Wm. P. Rus- sell and others vs. Isaac B. Gager.—This was an ac- | tion for damages, arising, it is alleged, on the non- | fulfilment of contract entered in'o by the parties. | It was contended fur the plaintiffs, that the defend- ant negctiated to charter tho bark Prescott, for the conveyance of from 2,000 to 2,500 barrels of freight to Sacramento, at $1 per foot, and that he stated that he could procure a fall cargo for the vessel in thirty days, which he was willing to do, on the un- derstanding that he was to receive five percent com- | mistion on the whole freight, and that the Prescott should be consigned to Lewis & Baily, agents of the | defendant, in Sacramento city. This proposition , was accepted, and the vessel was taken to pier No. | 6, East river. Notice was served on the defendant eo was ready, but he failed to perform his t, and the bark was detained for a considera- ble time, and the plaintiffs were obliged to take | other freight at_a lower rate than had been agreed | upon between him and them. The defence is that the contract was not completed, as the plaintiffs stated that the commission at Sacramento was not to be cver five per cent, and the defendant had no authority to agree to that, and that also he was a mere agent and broker, and had stated where he was to get tho freight, and that plaintiffs subse- quertly obtained ity he thorefore contends that he is not liable for damages, but is entitled to $5 commission. Damages wore laid at $5,300, jury rendered a verdict for plaintiffs for $3,235. United States District Court. Bofore Hon Judge Betts.
