    Lenox & Maitland v. William Wilson.
    The indorser at Alexandria, of a foreign hill of exchange, to a merchant in New York, is only liable for damages according to the law in force in Alexandria.
    This was an action by the holder against the indorser of a foreign bill of exchange, indorsed by the defendant in Alexandria, (where the damages fixed by law are ten per cent.)' to the plaintiff, who resided in New York, where the damages were fixed, by law at twenty per cent. The jury gave their verdict for the New York damages.
    
      Mr. Simms, for the plaintiff; Messrs. E. J. Lee and C. Lee, for the defendant.
   A motion by the defendant for a new trial, on the ground of excessive damages, was overruled by the Court, on the plaintiffs’ releasing the difference, which was about 444 dollars.
