After Term Nisi Prins sittings at Westminster.—(Before the Lord Chief Justice and Special Juries.) HPICTER V. SHARPE—LIBEL. The further hearing of this case, which is an action for libel against the Pall Mall Gazette, was resumed this m orning. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. Serjeant Parry, Mr. flume walt sm s, and Mr. C. Hoey, were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Kerslake, Q.C., Mr. Quain, Q.C., and Mr. Fitzjarues Stephen were counsel for the defendant. Dr. Markham—l am a fellow of the Royal College of physicians and a member of the Pathological Society, a physician of St. Mary's Hospital, &c., and the author of some medical works. I have read the plaintiff's book. It gives a theory of the nature and a treatment of consump tion. I think his theory untenable. There is no such thing as a deposit of carbon in the lungs in consumption. The treatment is impossible. No amount of oxygen would have any effect on carbon as instanced in what is known as the black or miner's lung. There is no information in the book how to administer oxygen. Dr. Hunter, in his evidence, gave no further infor mation as to tho production of oxygen according to the old fashioned mode of producing it. The book affords no information as to treatment. Inhalation was used 30 years ago when I was a student in a country h os pital, but not with oxygen then ; medical literary hi s t o ry is against its use as being mischievous. We have now more drugs than we know what to do with, and I have no wish to introduce it. It is well known that iodine, stramonium, and conium are very beneficial in asthma', and frequently used. The patients produced by the plain. tiff were good specimens of cures, but the profession can produce as equally good a number if not more. I agree with the evidence of the medical witnesses examined yes- birds!. Cross-examined by Mr. Coleridge—There is no differ ence of opinion as to the composition of tubercle, though there might be as to the exact component p It is • question of analysis. There is only arts. lor 1. of difference as to the quantity of carbon. It is necessary to purify the blood of too much carbonc acid gas by the introduction of oxygen into it. Plaintiff's method does not introduce oxygen ; the introduction of oxygen into the blood is very beneficial. lam not sure the lungs can take up more oxygen than they do in ordi nary breathing. None of the ordinary methods used by the plaintiff give out oxygen. It is a mistake to say that nitrate of pouts' and chloride of potass when burned evolve oxygen. Nitrate of potaas burnt in • bedroom gives benefit to persons suffering from asthma. I can bring you twenty patients from the hospital who have have been treated by others without success, but I have cured them. Perhaps that would not be the case with 100 consecutive patients, and it would apply equally to Dr. Hunter's patients. - Dr. George Johnson, M.D., of University College Hospital, am of opinion that the plaintiff's theory cannot be maintained. Undoubted facts are opposed to it. I concur entirely with Dr. Williams and the other medical men who have been examined. I have had no experience in the administration of oxygen for consumption, and I doubt if it would be beneficial. If largely given it might prove prejudicial by causing excite l i - ment in the patient. It is physically impossible for bleed ing to take place without the rupture of a blood-vessel, though Dr. Hunter says it can. The plaintiff's remedies for chronic laryngitis are not local, as lie represents, and I am surprised that the writer has made no mention of the laryngoscope, by which means the professional man can get a view of the interior of the throat and apply local remedies with the greatest precision. (The witness was examined upon the various extracts of the book, and the opinions expressed by the other medical witnesses, which be confirmed.) Cross-examined--The blood-vessels have no pores through which the blood might ooze out. It was supposed so by eminent men, but the microscope has shown there are no pores, and no microscopic observer would now make such a statement as the plaintiff has in his book. Dr. Quoin, M.D. and F.R.C.P.—I would not presume to define the plaintiff's theory as laid down in his book. If the plaintiff had ever seen tubercular deposits and the agents to be used, he would never have written what he bad about it. Dr. Wm. Odling, F.R.S.P., and lecturer on chemistry at St. Bartholomew's Hospital—Tubercles contain about the same quantity of carbon as is contained in all the other tissues, like a rump steak. Some say there is more, bet it is so slight when analysed that I pay no attention to it. Atmospheric air contains rather more than 20 per cent. of oxygen ; in 400 cubic inches of air there are SO inches of oxygen inspired a minute, or equal to three cubic feet per hour. In deep and rapid respiration the quantity might be increased tenfold, and by doubling the respiration in aminute you would double that. The inhala tion of fouror five gallons of oxygen more or less in 24 hours is an insignificant quantity in comparison with the total quantityinspirml. It might be about 1 per cent. Chloric acid is not in the pharmacopoeia ; it is only used in the manufacture of substances for making fireworks ; it has never been used medicinally that I know of ; if used at all it must be useml in secret ; the strong solution of chloric acid is very explosive, burning and charring substances ; it sets fire to paper immediately. Strong chloric acid when boiled gives off oxygen and chlorine gases in proportion of three of oxygen to two of chlorine. Inhaling oxygen some of the chlorine must he inhaled also. Chlorine is very irritating even when the chloric acid is diluted ; one half per cent. of the air inspired would contain chlorine ; if you get it below that it might be and has been breathed, and as you dilute the chlonne so you would dilute the oxygen ; 8.5 grains of absolute carbonic acid equal to a drop of water would give off 3.'0. cubic inches of oxygen. If any tinctures are used with it it will not throw off an atom of oxygen ; the blood in consumption contains leas carbon and more oxygen than the blood in health. Pure carbon is not in imical to life, but what has passed through the system and become oxygenised is inimical to life. Pure oxygen can be inhaled ; there is no oxygen inhaled from chloric acid. By the Lord Chief Justice—Oxygen would have no effect upon the tubercles. This was the defendant's case. Mr. Karslake, in addressing the jury, said he did not mean to say that if Dr. Hunter had propounded a theory which ho chose to give to the public in the ordinary and professional forms, even if it was without foundation, it would have been the subject of such a strong article, but now that they had the advertisements and the book before them, the advertisements containing carefully selected passages likely to create terror if others were not after wards taken to allay it—the whole scheme and scope of the letters was to make out that Dr. Hunter had either discovered something or had systematised some thing comparatively unknown before. Dr. Hunter by those letters mule it appear that he had made pulmonary diseases his speciality, and that no other man was capable of dealing with them but himself—that an honourable profession was so }dented and ignorant with reference to the treatment of those diseases that the public ought not to go to them. There could be no doubt that the plaintiff published his letters for the purpose of alluring patients to his house, he having excited so much terror in their minds, and a belief that he was the only person who could cure them. A part of the plaintiff's system ap peared to be that by blowing, as it were, with a blow-pipe on the carbon in the lungs he could cure consumption, and in announcing it to the public he had made use of gross exaggeration, which could only havebeen done for one object. The public mind was prepared by the book how he would treat his patients, and that consumption and its cognates were considered by the profes sion incurable, beyond the reach of medicine and human skill, quoting Sir James Clark in confirmation of that assertion ; but in another part he quoted Sir .lames Clark that pulmonary complaints were possible of bei n g cured, and then he sets forth what he called his system, at the arum time depreciating the recognised professional treatment of this most fatal disease. The learned counsel read various passages in the book, in one of which the profession were charged with tampering with life. It was not to be sur prised that 8001. had been spent by the plaintiff in the pur chase of drugs to he used in his various decoctiors. because could they conceive anything more likely than those advertisements to excite tenor in the minds of those who read them! If rich persons, they would imagine that the family physician had neglected every symptom which he ought to have observed, and if poor, that it was usel e ss of them to go to an ordinary medical man or time parish doctor, because they were only tampering with human life. Then they were told they should have recourse to a medical man who wade the disease a speciality, and that man was Dr. Hunter, who alone, and by devoting exclusive at tention to the diseases, was able to deal with them with any hopes of success. Throughout the book, and mixed up in every advertisement, there was some vilification of tae medical profession. Having pre Ned the mind to suspect the medical profession, he goes on and addresses himself tai the old and the young, the plump young women and the lean, and the mothers of children, all of whom had symptoms every winter which ho would lead them to believe were consumption or something very like it. Then he charged the profession with treating their patients with cruelty in endeavouring to effect a cure, but which only resulted in temporary relief. The book was written for an object, not for Cm u.rpol eof infor m i ng the public truly as to the symptoms. Its cures were sa sudden that like the man in the adver tisement for the cure of the toothache his patients were able rejoicingly to throw away the bottle and exclaim, cured in an iustant." (Laughter.) (The case - was proceeding when our report left.] COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Bitting' st Nisi Prins in Middlesex.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Boyd.' and a Special ury.) The new Lord Chief Justice. Sir Wm. Bovill, took his sect this morning, but there was no ceremony of any kind. The first case eAlle,l on was " Bell v.

BOW-STREET. THE LAsT ot:T. ... Henry Norman, a lad of 19 years of age, was brought up on remand, charged with highway robbery. Ann West, a servant in a family residing in Arlington street, New North-road, stated that on Sunday last she was passing along Holborn about half-past 5 o'clock in the evening, when the prisoner came in front of her and snatched her reticule and then ran away down Newton street, pursued by witness shouting "Stop thief." She lost sight of him, however, and about five minutes after wards gave information to Police-constable Wells, ea F, who recognised him by the description, having seen hint on the spot about half au hour before. He apprehended him afterwards at the 'timepiece. On hearing the charge the prisoner said, " It was not me, it was another chap.

One of his brothers is the lad called by the name of " Jack Sheppard," who has been so troublesome to the magistrates of this court. He was committed for trial. - SOUTHWARK. OMNIBUS DRIVER.% AT RAILWAY STATION,, Charles Page, the driver of an omnibus, No. 12,559, was summoned by Samuel Gill, an officer of the South Eastern Railway Company, for refusing while on their premises to obey the directions of the company's servants, and inis. conducting himself at the same time and place. The complainant said tbat on Tuesday, the 20th inst., he was ou duty on the incline leading to the terminus, regulating the different vehicles, when the defendant drove the omnibus up to the doors, and discharged his passengers. Instead of leaving the station as ho ought to have done he drove round and placed his omnibus across the roadway, thereby obstructing the passage of other vehicles. He told the defendant he must remove from that spot and leave the company's premises. He, however, refused to do so, and in the most impudent manner said he should remain on the premises as long as he liked. Witness was at last compelled to remove the omnibus, and on reportia the circumstances to his superior officer was directed to take the present proceedings. The defendant, in answer to the charge, said that after discharjing the passengers he merely drove round to where the other omnibuses were standing. The complainant informed his worship that no omni buses wero allowed to stand on the company's premises but privileged ones. The defendant's was not one of that sort. The magistrate asked what he meant by privileged omnibuses' _ _ - • .• Witness replied that the owners of those omnibuses paid a small sum per week to pay the expenses of water men, and while on their premises were under the control of the company's servants. The defendant well knew the rmittlations of the company. The defendant said that his master did not pay for the privilege and the conductor told him to stop. If auy oue was to blame it was the conductor. The magistrate told him that the incline of the railway was the private property of the railway company, and he must obey their regulations and not obstruct the traffic es he had done. It was his duty to have left the place when required, and as a caution to him and others he lined him is. and costs. AIOYEY ifARKF,T.-(THIS DAY. Wiz o'Ctuci.

About 33,0001. in gold has been sent into the Bank, and 5,0001. withdrawn. At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 69fr. 50c., being sc. lower. About 32,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank yesterday. The Edinburgh, from New York, has brought only 2,0941. in specie. Advices from Liverpool announce the failure of a firm of wino brokers owing, it is stated, to trans actions in the China t rade. The assets are expected to produce about 10s. in the pound. The increase in the Board of Trade returns for the month of October appears to be widely diffused over the great staples of export, though some have benefited more than others. Thus, the woollen and worsted manufactures exported in the month are valued at 1,960,9231. against 1,797,7061. in October, 1865, and 1,270,4851. in October, 1864. Cotton piece goods figure for 4,737,2491. exported in October, against 4,389,229/. in October, 1865, and 3,545,5611. in October, 1864. Perhaps the most noteworthy increase, however, is in cotton yarn, the exports of which in October are valued at 1,318,9261. against 1,031,3411. and 501,3761. in the corresponding month of the two previous years. The export business of the ten months ended the 31st October last has likewise been wonderfully large, the inference being that the crisis and panic which have marked the present year have been felt much more severely by the financial than by the commercial interests of the kingdom. The ten months' exports are returned as follows : 10 months, 1866 „ 1F165 „ 1864 As regards imports, the movement for the first nine months of the year shows a great increase, as will be seen by the following valuation of the enu merated articles : 9 months, 1866 tf 1865 91 1864 But tha imports in the month of September indi cate a much more sparing investment in arti cles of foreign and colonial production, that month's record being as under : Sept., 1866 f t 1865 f 1864 It is worthy of remark that the imports of cotton in the month of October were somewhat below the average of the same month in the last three years, and greatly below the figures for the earlier month of the present year, while as regards the next great item— wheat—the imports in October last were limited to 1,830,569 cwts., against 3,058,269 cwt.*. in October, 1865, and 2,539,950 cwts. in October, 1864. The London and North Western Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 2,7471. over the corresponding period of last year ; the Great Western, an increase of 2,120 ; the Great Eastern, an increase of 1,103/. ; the London and South Western, an increase of 2,0101. ; the Great Northern, an increase of 3,1021. ; the Lancashire and Yorkshire, an increase of 4,0701. ; the North Eastern, an increase of 7021. ; the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, an increase of 634/. ; the North British, an increase of 449/. ; the Lon don, Chatham, and Dover, including the Metropo litan Extension and branches, an increase of 1,7201. ; the Metropolitan Extension, an increase of 66/. ; and the Kent Coast, an increase of 1601. The allotment letters of the Agra Bank (Li mited) were issued yesterday. The applications were oplusiderably in excess of the amount of capital re quiredt notwithstanding the present great depres sion. We are further informed that the replies from the old shareholders have been numerous in favour of the resuscitation proposal, and that the assents from creditors now exceed 4,000,0001. An application will be made to the Court of Chancery on the earliest day that can be obtained for its sanction to the arrangement. Notice is given that a petition for the winding up of the Anglo-Italian Bank (Limited) is to be heard before Vice-Chancellor Kindereley on the 7th December. And, on the same day, a petition for the winding up of the Albion Bank (Limited) is to be heard before Vice-Chancellor Stuart. A petition for the winding up of the Hafod Hotel Company (Limited) is to be heard before the Master of the Rolls on the Bth December. The Master of the Rolls has appointed Mr. d. A. Cape (of the firm of Cape and Harris) official liquidator of the Merchants Company (Limited). We are requested to state that the share hat of the Liquid Meter Company (Limited) will be closed on the 4th December. The annual court of the London Assurance Cor poration is called for the 19th December. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.
