The instructions of the Judge of the District Court, as to the measure of damages, cannot be sustained. Special damages were not declared for, and, as they were not the necessary or inevitable result of the alleged wrong, cannot be claimed or recovered in this action.

Exceptions sustained, verdict set aside, and a new trial granted.
