      See monographic note on "Costs” appended to Jones v. Tatum, 19 Gratt. 720.
    
   The bill in this case was brought to recover damages on account of a contract respecting some tobacco, and to have an account of eight hogsheads, which account was, at a former hearing, directed, and the bill as to the damages thereby claimed, dismissed.

Commissioner Greenhow, after taking the account of the eight hogsheads, made a statement of better than three pages upon that part of the subject which had been decided upon by the Court, of which the Court, on that account, disapproved, and directed that $10 82 of the Commissioner’s costs to be taxed for the plaintiff, should be excluded; so that he was made to bear the costs of that part of the report himself, as it appeared tc have been done at his instance.
