80 PEDEBAL REPOIiTEB. �allege any license or consent. It is objected that the plain- tiff bas not proved want of consent. This was net necessary. It was for the defendant to prove consent, if anything needea to be proved on the subject. �(6) The apparatuses testified to by Philip Barkel, Axel Schiermacher, and John E. Hopkins have no bearing on the plaintiff's patent. They are not alluded to in the brief for the defendant.

E. Worthen and H. B. Eenwick, before referred to. That patent was granted July 5, 1859, for an "improve- ��� �
