Tin Judges of the Queen's Bench have, as we anticipated, upheld the opinion expressed by the LORD Crum Juane; when he tried the action brought by Dr. CAMPBELL against the Saturday Review. It is, of course, of the utmost impor tance that public writers should be allowed ample mope, in order that they may expose frauds and chastise those who attempt to pupil:ate them. Nor should any doctrine be countenanced which tends to restrict the right of severely criticising the conduct of public men, however honest may be their intentions. There is no doubt that Dr. Car vas scheme of " converting the lost mil " lions of the land of Chins " by showering British Standards and Ensigns upon them islands, was a fair subject of criticism. The only question was whether the critic did not exceed the limits per by law. Not satisfied with ridiculing Dr. CAMPBELL'S scheme, the Reviewers plainly inti mated that the reverend gentleman had published a list of fictitious subscribers in order to induce other persons to follow their imaginary example. In other words, it was hinted that Dr. CAMBRIA was a swindler, and had managed, by falespreteness, to obtain a considerable sum of ntwary. If the Saturday Review, upon being sued, led justified itself upon the ground that the acesentions were true, and had succeeded in estehliding their truth, • great benefit would have been conferred upon the public, and the verdict would have been recorded in its favour. But it did not adopt this course. It simply insisted that the im putation which it had cast upon Dr. Cmerssza had been cast upon him in the exercise of a public duty, and inasmuch as the jury found that the Reviewers really believed in the truth of what they stated, the counsel for the Review maintained that they were protected from all liability. Ao- cording to the decision of the Queen's Bench this is not the law of Ragland, and it would be • singular state of things if it were. No man in private life is entitled to libel another merely because he believes what he says to be true ; and it now appears that public journalists, in commenting upon public affairs, occupy in this respect precisely the same petition. There are some cases in which a private individual is protected even though he libels his fellow. citizen. Thus a master who gives a bad character to a servant, or a person who by mistake gives another in custody on a charge of felony, is pro *acted from any action. These are what are known at privileged cases, but the privilege is confined to a particular class and to particular circumstances. It is for the advantage of society that masters should be allowed to state their opinion as to the character of their servants ' • and therefore if they state their opini on sin cerely they cannot be seed. Au attempt ' was, indeed, made by Mr. Bonet. to assimilate the position of a public writer to that of a person enjoying a privilege. But, as the Judge pointed oat, the term was misapplied. For it was ad mitted that the right of attributing scandalous or sordid motives to Dr. Cemrsma., so far from being claimed se a privilege, was in effect claimed for every citizen of the realm. A privilege by its very nature must be confined to a certain class, and exist only under certain circumstances. But public writers enjoy no rights which do not belong to other members of the community. It is impossible to understand upon what ground it can be necessary to endow writers in newspapers withtheprivilege of making groesimputationsagainst public men which, if they were uttered by a private individual, would expose him to an adieu. If the fact that &writer believed any charge, however scan dalous, to be tree were to be considered a sufficient justification for his making it, the position of public men would be serious indeed. Disappointed plsoehunters and party theologians are prover bially bitter and mincers. And if the right to calumniate an enemy is only to be restricted by the sincerity with which men appropriate and disseminate their calumnies, public discussion would be in fact • public nuissooe. The groundless attacks of an ill-natured fanaticism ought not to be protected because they are made in good faith. But, further, as one of the Judges said, if a Moller could defend himself merely by satisfying • jury that he believed what he wrote, the person libelled would have no means of clearing himself from a oharge however gross. Under such cir cumstances the truth or the falsehood of the charge would be utterly immaterial. The person calumniated would have no opportunity of obtain ing an opinion from a jury aa to whether it were true or not. The only question for them would be whether the libeller really believed what he said ; and the result would be that although the impu tations might be utterly unfounded, the verdict of the jury would imply that they were in fact well founded. It cannot be said that the law as laid down by the Queen's Bench is at all new. On the contrary, it is probably trim that no snob defuses u that put forward by the Saturday Review was ewir put forward before. The public interest does not I require that journalists should be endowed with the privilege of accusing their fellow-citi sans of fraud and imposture with impu nity. There are, no doubt, occasions upon which it becomes necessary to denounce acts of corruption in high places, and to point out the chain of evidence which leads to such a conclusion. If the circumstances were very strong the jury would probably throw their protection over the writer. At all events, they would require cogent evidence to prove that the comments were without founda tion. The decision, therefore, at which the Queen's Bench have arrived will have no serious effect in curtailing public discussion. It will only put a wholesome curb upon that unhappy spirit which sincerely believes in human depravity, and consistently accounts for every action by imputing the worst possible motives.

The Duke of Cleveland and Lady Augusts Powlett have wired at the Hotel Bristol, at Paris, from BaL• SERIOUS ACCIDZST TO LORD MASSABEENE. (From the Belfast Rem-Leto at yeeteedey.) It is with the most sincere regret we announce that Lord Maseareese ham met with an sonident in the plasma-grounds near his reddeeoe, Aatrimeastle, from the effects of which he now lies almost beyond hops of recovery. On Saturday morning last, about 9 o'clock, his lordship het the castle in his usual health and spirits, and went to walk in the grounds, on the improvement of which he has be stowed much of his attentioe. I. that portion of them which is known by the name of the labyrinth, the path led up and along an embankment, and on the top of it was a yew tree which was growing a little crooked. Close to it, and nearer the edge of the embankment, a stake was driven in some time ago, end his lordship having procured a cord, proceeded to tie the yew tree to she stake so as to straighten it. While he was po engaged, the stake, pest of which had rotted, gave way, and Lord ifaisamene slipped and fell backwards down the embankment, and was dashed against came large stems which were on the footpath be neath. His head cams in ocetact with the wall, and the upper portion of his hack, between the shoulders, upon one of the stones, which owned a fracture or dislocation of the spine, and total paralysis of more thee the lower half of his body. No one was oft the spot when the accident occurred, but a boy who was engaged at gardening a short diem* off ob served his leedehipfalling and at ono* hurried Wide aid. Lord Masearafte lay with his face to the groaadoineble to move, and, mug bow serious wee the amident, the lad ran to the castle and summoned the servants. Dr. Spearing sad Dr. Taggart, of Antrim, were also sent for, and arrived a few minutes. after ; and, alder their dire°. times, the unfortunate nobleman was removed on a mattress to the castle, which he had left a short time previously in the full vigour of manhood. His lordship's mind was dear and collected, and he could give a esozinot aceeent of the way in which the accident had takes place, but he said that " all his bone' were smashed." It was found, is ex imehation, that one of his feet were dislocated sad oss of the boom of his leg broken, and also that he had metaled an injury of the shoulder ; but the thief isjary was that to the spine, which had caused the paralysis. The grief of the members of his lordship's agonised family, as be was carded in, may be better imagined than described. Dr. Butcher, of Dublin, was telegraphed for, and Dr. Rome, who was summoned from Belfast by the sues meats, arrived at Aoki= Castle without delay. He found the in juries to be as we have dmoriked therm Bungled aid was almost useless. His lordship was made aware of his critical *audition, and listened to the 'Maimed with muck forti tude and calmness. In the even*, Dr. Thomson, of Lis• learn, sad Dr. Haldane Cooke, Assistant-Surgeon of the Royal Antrim Artillery, of which mimed Lord lieseareene is commandant, reached the castle. At a later hour Dr. Butcher arrived from Dublin, but could only confirm the opinion of the medical men that had already been given as to the astute of the injuries. His lordship's intellect com tinsel quite unimpaired, but the paralysis in the lower parte eland totally precludes a chance of recovery. As soon as the accident became known, a heavy gloom seemed to fell upon the inhabitants of the town of Antrum dose to which the castle is situated. The sad intelligence spread hem month to mouth, and everywhere called forth =of the deepest regret, for he lordship waa much b em y the people amongst whom he resided, and who bed frequeet opportunities of admiring his kindness of dis politica end the ready way in which he always endeavoured to promote their welhre. In the afternoon the news was brought to Belted, and here also was received with the alincei sorrow; for there were few who did not know Lord Memarcene es en excelled resident landlord, a nobleman of mach tads and literary ability, and one whose grounds were OM freely thrown open to the working thousands of this crowded town.

Among the signatures are those of Prim:* Czartoryski, General Zamoyski, M.

You have just given us a new and striking proof of those sentiments. With a feeling of grateful emotion we have heard the warm hearted and eloquent words which you have recently spoken in the Senate in favour of Poland, tracing in indelible characters the picture of the oppression which weighs upon our country, denouncing and stigmatising iniquity and apostacy, speaking of Poland as a sister of France who has suffered and is still suffering while she waits for justice. We are happy, Monseigneur, to 'apnea to you the grati tude with which your words and your acts have inspired us, feeling convinced that we may always rely upon your rap port. Your sympathy for a just cause can only increase from attacks which cooler honour when they emanate from accomplices of a foreign domination, from men who are justly branded by you as history also will brand them.—We are. he., [Signatures follow.] SWEDEN. A letter from Stockholm says : Prince Constantine Csartoryski continues to be the object hare of the popular ovations which greeted him on his first arrival. He every day receives invitations t 3 dins with the heads of our princsipal families. He is also re ceived with great oonaideratioe at the edam and has already on two occasion been the guest of King Charm XV. A few days since Prince Oscar, the King's brother and heir presumptive to the throve, gave a grand dinner in horsier of the Polish prince, to which a settle) number of the meet influential nobles and members of the Legislative Chambers were invited. It is scarcely necessary to say that on this occasion toasts in favour of the SUCOOIII of the Polish cause were drunk with the utmost enthusiasm. Prince Car toryskl, in consequence of an invitation addressed to him by the students of the University of Upeal, intends to go there shortly, where, from the preparations to receive him, he will undoubtedly be the object of a great popular de monstration.

It is to be regretted that a cause eo good and so noble, end so strong also, in wausequeace of the unanimity of opinion in its favour which prevails not only in Pianos, but in Europe, should be too often compromised by the very people who profess to be its best friends, and who allow themselves to ass in its defense violent language and insults which are commonly employed on behalf of a bad aria It is with regret also that we see certain journals endea vour to avail themselves of their more or less officious rola lions to give to their polemics on the subject of Poland the ardour amid gravity of the discussions which preceded the war to Italy. Nothing au be more unlike the present situation than that of 1859. Then there was • praising question which Frame had no choice but to take op.

Either we most have consented to let Austria rule throughout Italy, and wee up to our own fraction, or make up our minds to party the blow. To-day there is nothing of the kind in view. A question of bumaaity, of European order, of sympathy far • brave and unfortunate people is indeed before us, bet there is no danger for France. Uoder such circumstances, France is neither more nor leas engaged than the other great powers of Europe. There is no French question. There is only an European question. The understanding with England, Austria, and almost all the states ci Europe, relieves present circumstances from the gravity which it is sought to attribute to them. The union of the great powers amply suffices to produce an hemostat]. mintier without it being Deoessus for France to throw herself, alone, into an adventurous course. The joursals, therefore, which strive to assimilate two epochs so essentially different deceive the public and de ceive themselves. I have no doubt that the Conabitutionnel will be ordered to-morrow morning to echo the above ar ticle, which is, I think it safe to say, the latest expression of the opinion of the French govern ment, so far as M. Drouyn de Lhuya, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, may be considered the repre sentative of it. We know, however, by long expe rience that the Emperor has frequently a policy in reserve, on great occasions, of which his ministers know nothing. The public mind is certainly more excited to-day than it has been for a long time. The fall at the Bourse continues, and the money articles of some of the evening papers say that the sales by speculators to balance their accounts are over, and that it is the public principally which is now selling. At the Sorbonne, on Saturday last, a young lady (Mdlle. Emma Chenu) passed • brilliant examina tion, and was admitted to the degree of bachelor of sciences. This is the first instance of a woman being allowed to take honours in the University of Paris. The example was set at Lyons a short time ago. Mdlle. Chenu was warmly congratulated by M.

The hopes of the insurgents are very much raised by the arrival of a number of French officers, who have temporarily thrown up their oommisaions in the French army to come and fight here. In this respect the policy of the French government is very different now from what it was in 1831, when Louis Philippe published an address to the army, in which he gave out that no officer who resigned his commission to serve in Poland should, ander any circumstances, be re-admitted into the service. ' Besides French, there are numerous Italians, Hungarians, and not a few Bohemians, who are, in many respects, very nearly allied to the Poles. A few days since an officer from the Confederate States, whose regiment was disbanded last winter, arrived in Cracow to offer his sword to assist the Polish cause. By birth he is half a Pole, and knowing that his mother was living in the heart of Russian Poland, with a fair chance of being massacred any day by the Muscovite soldiery, he could not resist the temptation of coming over to look after her. He had left Poland when quite a boy, and is now a confirmed American, but still speaks Polish like a native, which, however, he dare not disclose, as he is travelling under a British purport; being, indeed, a British Canadian, though he has lately resided at New Orleans. In a restaurant to which I accompanied him, he recognised several old school-fellows, who had entirely forgotten him, and when be made himself known to some relations in Cracow, the scene was very moving. As far as I can make out, there is but one na tive of the British Isles in the insurgent ranks, and he is from Scotland, and is by no means deficient in the proverbial "canniness" of his race. His object seems to be to become a hero at the smallest possible outlay ; for he informed me that the thing might be done for a mere song. He explained that he proposed serving in the cavalry without purchas ing horse, saddle, bridle, or uniform—all that he would get scot free. He further informed me that he bad just been partaking of the hospitality of the landlord of the hotel, and that he shared his room with some half-dozen other insurgents, so that his friends need entertain but little anxiety about his extravagance. _ _ _ Yesterday I made an excursion on horseback across the frontier into Russian Poland, and for the first time had an opportunity of nar rowly examining Russian troops. Having my passport via& for Russia, the Austrian authorities made no difficulty in letting me pass ; but when I got to the Russian custom-house at Michalowice, which is occupied by 500 infantry and about 100 Circasaian cavalry, I was told to return on my way, as they would not let me pass. Michalowiceia about five miles due north of Cracow, and as I was bent one longer ride, I put the case so strongly to the official that he said I might go on if I chose to leave my passport there. This I at once decided to do, though I suppose it might have got me into difficulties. The custom-horse was literally swarming with dirty looking brown-coated soldiery, wearing long boots, which looked as if they had not been blacked since the Crimean war. While some were amusing themselves with kicking about a couple of footballs, others were playing marbles with hard-boiled eggs painted different colours. From the walls of the private apartment of the custom-house official hung a portrait of the Czar, extending as far as the waist, which was con tracted to so alarming an extent that I half ex pected the picture to be taken off by a fit of apo plexy. Some two hundred yards from the custom house I passed a couple of the frontier-guards., who get five roubles for every insurgent they bring in dead or alive. They are armed with musket, bayonet, short sword, and revolvers, and eyed me with considerable interest, as I did them, I must confess not uniningled with a baser feeling, when I reflected that it is their habit first to fire at and strip their victim, then to inquire if he happened to be an insurgent, which is a point on which it is not difficult to prove to the authorities. I may add that the Russian soldiery much prefer fighting against insurgents without uniform than with, because they can sell plain clothes to the Jews. This, among others, is said to be the reason why the insurrection is not put down, because the Russian soldiery want to entice more young Poles into their clutches. A further reason is that officers and men get double pay and rations in time of war, so that you see, though it is in the interest of the government to put the insurrection down at once, the army would gladly see it continue. Whatever the truth of these opinions may be, the insurrection is assum ing such proportions, especially in Lithuania, that there is little fear of the Polish cause being imme diately extinguished. As I continued my ride some three miles into the kingdom of Poland, it was evi dent, from the amazed looks of the peasants, that they took me for an insurgent. I rode through two villages, but in neither of them did I see a Russian soldier, whereas on Austrian frontier all the vil lages are occupied by small companies. The fact is that the Russian officers dare not trust them selves alone with thirty or forty men, and so they are mused together. On my return to Mi. chalowioe my passport was returned to me, and I rode quietly home without anything unpleasant occurring. This very custom-house was sacked by the soldiery on Feb. 16th, and the money chest, Arc., stolen, while the Russian authorities took refuge in Cracow, whence they have only l►tely returned. Ifichalowice is the very platoon the frontier where Russian custom-house officials are now to be found ; the rest have all fled, but the high road from Craoow to Warsaw entering Russian Poland at this pont, the Russians have occupied it with a very strong force. It appears a miracle to all who saw Mr. Pintail stein brought into Cracow that he was able to pro ceed to England last week. I happened to travel with part of the way to Vienna, and he then informed me of all the particulars of his case, which are already so well known in England. His surviving after thirty-two wounds is generally looked upon here as a proof of the immortality of the body, as every one confidently expected his death. He told me that at the frontier he had ex treme difficulty in preventing the authorities from registering him as " Earl Russell, travelling on the continent," a mistake which would have had no influence whatever in preventing the subsequent catastrophe.

NEW ZEALAND. This morning was issued a copyof correspondence between the Becretes7 of State for the 001011 ii• sad the Governor of New Zealand, subsequent to the Duke of New castle's despatch of May 26, 1862, relating to the abudoie. meet of imperial control over native affairs In that coley. The papers include a memorial addressed to the QUOOII by the Howie of Representatives in New Zealand and certain resolutions adopted at a meeting in tbs.:obey, and a long despatch, occupying sight pages of the rotary, frey e his Grans the Duke of Newoutle to Governor Sir 0. Grey, dated the 20th of last February. The two great questions at hoes between the home sad eoliths' governments are who shall i govern the Retires sad who shall pay the expense of governing them. Os this head, the views eatethinsd by the two authorities are of a very oppegt. character. Hie Pace, on the part of the Baia government, gives at length his reason for holding " that the duty of civilising and ecotrolline the aborigin es of New Zealand rests in the that pia°s with the inhabitants of the odociy, who are primarily interested in the order, prosperity, and tranquillity of their own country, sad on, within its limits, alone exercise the power of imposing tan and passing laws--thas the imperial government is sot called moo as a natter at right to relieve the inhabitants from any part of their responsibilities—that for their own apposed advantage it has hitherto so relieved them, b e e upon implied conditions which have long been imporfeetly aegßi.soed in, sad have now been plainly repudiated by the that the failure of the system thane and the necessity far abandoning iR arises an pursed, tl negteet d the home government to omens he powers, but from the imdequitoy Minims powers, and the furl of the colonial community to wafer, or to submit to them."
