Opinion of the Court by

The appeal in this case brings before us for revision a judgment in favor of the appellee against the appellants, Kennady, and K. *217G. and J. H. Matheny, for $1,200, with interest from the 1st day of June, 1866.

The material question, which was one of fact, appears to have been whether Kennady in good faith sold for the appellee the thirty-seven barrels of whiskey, or the remainder-thereof, while in his possession, upon storage, at the price of $1.50 per gallon, for which he accounted to the appellee, or merely pretended to have so disposed of the whiskey to Smith, or Smith & Hanly, to induce the appellee to accept the supposed price of $1.50- per gallon for the whiskey, in order that he and said Mathenys in fraudulent combination with him might avail themselves of it by accounting for it at that price.

It satisfactorily appears from the evidence that the appellee accepted from Kennady an account of.the whiskey, at the price of $1.50 per gallon, under the mistaken belief, wrongfully induced by Kennady, that the latter had in good faith sold the whiskey for him at that price to Smith, and the evidence tending to show a combination between F. G. and J. H. Matheny and Kennady to profit by this imposition, and that they did so profit by a sale of the whiskey at a greatly enhanced price, seems to us to have been sufficient to authorize the finding of the jury.

We do not perceive that any error was committed to the appellant’s prejudice, in the admission of evidence to the jury, with the restrictions and qualifications which the court imposed, as to its application to the issues between the parties. Nor was there, in our opinion, any essential error in the giving, refusing, or modifying of instructions, and on the whole it seems to us the motion for a new trial was properly overruled.

Wherefore, the judgment is affirmed with damages.
