SPORTING NOTES. THE DERBY SCANDAL.—The oorrespondenoe re specting the scratching of The Earl and the extraordinary running of Lady Elizabeth for the Derby, is the most pro minent topic of discussion in the sporting pipers this morning. The effect of the new light which is thrown upon the scandal is certainly not to clear up the mystery, for as the correspondence increases the plot seems to thicken. and the &causation to multiply. The letter of Admiral Rous has given rise to a va riety of opinions as to the propriety of its publica tion ; but the Field contends that one useful end will have been attained if it can be shown why Lady Elizabeth ran so disgracefully bad in the Derby, and what motive there was forscmtching The Earl, who must, to judge by public running, have won the great Epsom prize. THE rIOPEZTS ox TEI NOWINITZBERIAND The running for the Northumberland Plate at New castle is the chief event of the coining week, and the pro phets do not a to differ widely as to the result. Bill s Life has a predilection for El Cid and Flora, and, should an outsider come to the front at the finish, it may possibly be Fairvrind. The Field reposes confidence in Flora and Fairwind, while Augur ' of the Sort ins, Life decides in favour of Taraban and Flora, next to which he expects to see El Cid. " Beacon," iof the Spering Gazette, looks for the winner in Taraban, El C 4 and Flora, but has a preference for El Cid. The Era places Flora the first, and gives to Taraban the second place, as also does " The Wizard" of the Nzorteruna ; while " Vigilant," of the same journal, decides in favour of Flora and Fortnnio. The Sportsman says that the protest entered against Electricity being returned the winner of the Windsor Stakes by Grimshaw, the rider of Masaniello—who came in second—on the ground that the Mart was a " flying one," still remains in abeyance. It was anticipated that the matter, if gone into at all, would have been settled at Hampton, but after repeated inquiries, the Sportsman could not hear of its having been brought forward, and thinks the affair will end in smoke.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. After term Nisi Prius sittings at Westminster.—(Before the Lord Chief Justice and a Special Jury.) 11.1 SI ALLAH r. JOHN TONE AND MENUS. . . . . _ This was an action for libel against the Standard news paper. The defendants pleaded that the words complained of were inserted without actual malice ; secondly, an apo logy, and payment of 20s. into court. Mr. Baker Greene, Mr. Butler Rigby, and Mr. Macrae Moir were counsel for plaintiff ; Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. Serjeant Ballantine, Mr. Archibald, and Mr. Allan for tho dcfmidants. This action arose out of the trial of Risk Allah, at Brussels, for the murder of his ward, Charles Readley, and also for forgery and fraud. The facts, from the noto riety which the cause acquired from the Brussels trial, and the more recent action this week against the Daily Tele graph, so fully reported from day to day, must be so fresh in the minds of the public as to render it unnecessary to again publish them. Mr. Baker Greene, in stating the case to the jury, said that the issue in this case was different to that in the case of the Daily Telegraph, the onus of proof being thrown on the defendants. The defendants were the pro prietore of the Morning and Evening Standard and the Morning Ilerald, and although the plaintiff had a right to bring three separate actions for what appeared in each of those papers, he bad felt he would not be justified in taking such harrassing proceedings against the de fendants, and he had therefore contented him self with but bringing one action in order to justify his chtuacMr. The articles complained of dealt principally with the charge of murder, and in the course of these observations, the writer stated that "giving the accused the bene fit of his acquittal we cannot help wishing that the exculpatory evidence had been more direct," that there was blood upon the pillow and blanket—that Risk Allah's as sociates were of an equivocal character, one being a con victed forger—that he ostentatiously predicted that the boy would commit suicide, and he placed a loaded fowling-piece within his reach—that Risk Allah appeared nervous and excited that morning. Rxception was also taken to these parts of the article re ferring to the evidence of the experts as to suicide or mur der, observing that the matter had not been cleared up, and the mystery still remained secret. The plaintiff prin cipally complained of the statement that the jury had ac corded to Risk Allah the benefit of a doubt; that being no doubt based on the retirement of the jury to consider their verdict, a formality required by the Belgian laws. The second article complained of was inserted in the Evening Standard, and that was also complained of as containing misstatements of facts, other inaccuracies, and contradictions of what had been previously stated. The learned counsel having read the articles in extenso, and commented upon the objectionable parts, and the adverse tone of the articles generally, said that when these articles appeared Risk Allah instructed his solicitor to apply to the defendants for an interview, for the purpose of correcting these state ments. An interview took place between the at tornies, and an apology was drawn up and sent to the defendants. The plaintiff demanded as a right that the apology should contain a correct version of the dream dance, and in order to do that it was necessary to go over the same ground the defendants had traversed, and to reply to the charges seriatim and explain them. That apology was accompanied with a letter stating that if it contained anything objectionable the plaintiff's attorney would be ready to confer with the defendants, with a view to a mutual arrangement. On let January follow ing, the plaintiff's solicitor received a letter informing him that a statement was in course of preparation, which it was hoped would be satisfactory, and the plaintiff's solicitor replied that he hoped it would be framed in the same spirit as the apology he had drawn up. Plaintiff then issued his writ. On the 2nd of March the defendants published an article upon Risk Allah, copied from the Pall-mall Gazette, adopted from the Lera n t Courier, of a very offensive character, which said Risk Allah was known as an hospital dresser in the Crimea, and not the distinguished person he represented himself to be, and that he was trading on his reputation, and further, that he would not have brought an action in his own country, where he was well known. Plaintiff did not issue a second writ against the Standard for its insertion, as he might have done, and also against the Pall-mall Gazette but he had preferred to wait until the conclusion of the Daily T gg rapsl trial. That had been concluded to Risk Allah's ea ••daction, and he had now no intention of proceeding further; and even now he was ready to accept a withdrawal, in the fullest manner, of all the clarges alleged against him in the defendant's news pers. The Lord Chief Justice—May I here step in as me diator Mr. Coleridge—We have already apologised in the most ample manner. The plaintiff's counsel was not bound to read the apology, but it should be remembered that the correspondence he had read was written without prejudice.

MOS. this Canister, The plaintiff incase was a , and the de fendant was also a member of the bar and a Queen's counsel. The plaintiff had sued for a dissolution of marriage, and the defendant was retained as counsel for the wife. The declaration in the present case alleged that the defendant falsely and maliciously, and under colour, and in fraud of his retainer, spoke of the plaintiff as a b a rrister and member of a circuit, these words—" Ho is a cunning, clever man, well skilled in getting up cases—he is no ordinary man—he has had the advan tage of an education at college—be has had • legal education to fit him for the bar, and he has had a long experience in the practice of the warts and the getting up of cases; he is a man to whom the whole machinery of the law is as familiar as the alphabet, and he has devoted the whole of his skill in weaving a net to catch his poor unwary trusting wife. He has used his knowledge and intelligence in order to trump up a false cof adultery against • virtuous and innocent woman, iCro r ! e er that he may marry a rich woman at Nottingham to whom he is engaged. He has procured testimony against this lady by employing a publican named Burton to bribe witnesses to come forward to swear falsely against her, b 7 promising to them some of the wealth he hopes to obtain from the lady he has engaged to marry. His conduct was one long cruel scheme to get rid of a loving and affectionate wife. He had the cruelty to cross-examine his own wife in a suit in which he was pe titioner and she respondent, on the most insulting and un necessary topics ' and in the most cruel manner, but he has not dared to go into the witness-box himself. If he bad dared to go into the witness-box I could have wrung it out of him, and would have forced him to admit that he bad employed Burton to bribe the witnesses by promising, in case of hie mucosa in the mid suit, some of the money he had hoped to obtain by his second ond marriage with the rich lady of Nottingham . , In a second count the plaintiff 'Raged that be, having retired from the Mid land bar mess in consequence of a difference of opinion with the majority of the members of the mess, and applying to be re-admitted to the mask the defendant spoke of him these words :—" He is a rlunworthy to mix with gentleman or to be a mem this or any other mess. His conduct in endeavour ' to trump up a case in the Divorce Court • by means of gm g witnesses and for other misconduct has been so disreputable and disgraceful that be ought to be excluded from the society of gentlemen. I have laid his conduct before the Lord Chancellor and the Hellebore of the Inner Temple, and the Lord Chancellor has condemned him as unworthy to join the mem of the Midland Circuit or any other mess, and the Bonchere of the Inner Temple have also considered him as unworthy ;" the consequence of which was that the plaintiff was not readmitted to the — The defendant pleaded not guilty.

Sittings at Nisi Plitia.—(Bcfore the Lord Chief Baron and a Special Jury.) TALLKY V. OkAY. - - This was an action against the London and County Bank for dishonouring a cheque. .The defendants pleaded that they had no balance belonging to the plaintiff to meet the cheque, and a variety of other pleas. Mr. Serjeant Parry and Mr. Henry James were for the plaintiff ; Mr. Berjeant Ballantine and Mr. Bush Cooper for the defendants. The plaintiff was an attorney residing nearTwyford, and kept an account with the defendants at the Knightsbridge broach. In July, 1867, be paid in a sum of MI. 4s. into tillrybranch of the defendants' bank at Reading, with a notice that it was to be transferred to his account at Knightsbridge. In December he drew a cheque for (IW. 10s., which was not paid. On demanding an explana tion it appeared that the branch at Reading had by an error transferred the 261. 4a. to the credit of a Mr. Talks, instead of to that of Mr. Talley t and the result was that the amount standing to the plaintiff crodit was not sufficient to satisfy the cheque for 69/. 10s. At the conclusion of the examination of the plaintiff, an arrangement was come to, by which it was left to his lordship to say to what amount the plaintiff was entitled. A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff, by consent, with 601. dama ges .

She was also hold ing up her dress with the left hand and was not aware that her purse could be seen, as her cloak was over it. The prisoner suddenly rushed up to her, and gave her left arm a wrench.

He had succeeded in swimming nearly across the lake, when he got into one of the 'boats which are usually moored in the morning near the north shore. Haring rested for a short time he dived off, and swam for the shore. A boy who was swimming near him saw him strugling and turn round, apparently with the intention of - recrossing the water. The lad cried out for help, and swam away from the poor fellow, being afraid of being dragged down by him.
