Dr. Nathan Marcus Adler, Chief Rabbi ha this country, fora slander Irk" he said had injured him in hi s trade as a Jew•li butcher. The defendant pleaded " not guilty." and alsodeniell that Ole plaintiff was authorised to deal in meat according to the laws and customs of the Jews. Mr. Oiffard, Q.C., sad Mr. F. 11. Lewis. appeared for the plaintiff ; Sir J. Kaedake, Q. 0., Mr, PoUock, Q.C., and Mr. Oppenheim for the defendant. The plaintiff. who had formerly carried on the trade of a Jewiila butcher in Holland, under the proper authority of the rabbi in that country, recently opened a buteher's shop in Leman -street, Whitechapel, and soon obtained a considerable Dueness among persons of his own persuasion. It was well known that in accordance with the Jewish religion meat to De eaten by Israelite. must be killed by a person possessing par ticular moral and other qualifications, and also be killed in a ;articular way. The defendant, it was Said, had refused to give his sanction to the plaintiff selling meat to Jews, and employed emissaries to warn his customers that what he sold was .•Trefa," or unclean meat, the consequence being that all his customers left him, and he had to close his shop. At the conclusion of the plaintiff's case, The teamed judge held that there was no evidence to go to the jury, and directed them to return a verdict for the defendant. He added that, if there hadbeen any evi dence of the alleged slander, he should have held that it was a privileged communication. Verdict for the defendant. There were several attempts at applause among the Jews who thronged the court. CON:MEMORY COURT. (Before Sir Traver Twins, Chancellor of London.) SEE ROE. LED REV. ZOBIZT LIDDELL LED OTRKItiI r.

The December .ession of the Central Criminal Court was opened at the ( ld Bailey this morning by the Right lion. the Lord Mayor (Alderman J. C. Lawrence, M.P.), the Recorder the Right Hon. Rural Gurney, Q.C., M.P.), Mr. Alderman Bexley, Mr. Alderman Calis ton, Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Cotton, Mr. Sheriff Hutton, and the Under-Sheriffs, Mows. Crosley and Slee. The first edition of the calendar contains the names of 79 prisoners, and the offences are thus classified :—Bur glary, 9 ; feloniously uttering counterf e it coi n , 18 ; em bezzlement. 1 forgery, 7 ; horse-stealing, 1 ; larceny, 14 ; larceny from the person, 3 ; murder, I ; feloniously attempting to murder, 3 ; misdemeanour. 5 ; rape, 4 ; feloniously receiving stolen goods, 1 ; robbery with vio lence, 9 ; warehouse-breaking, t ; and feloniously wound inbe Recorder, in charging the grand jury, stated that there are fewer cases than usual to le disposed of, in con sequence of the short time that had elapsed since last session. li m a) was a (hale against a mother of having inurdeiCe. her ehlla, ages. three Feeicli Death was caused by suffocation, and a portion of bg .ter appeared to have been forced into the child's throat. She had taken away the child, stating that she was going to take it into the country to nurse, and when 51w came back she said she had done so. Or. the same evening it was found dead. When taken into custody the prisoner said the father of the child advised her to carry it about and it would be sure to die from exposure, as it was a very cold night, and to be sure not to lay it down till it was dead. Supposing that were so, and she intended to destroy the life of the child, it would constitute the crime of murder, but the evidence was clear that death was occasioned by forcing the sub stance down its throat. There was a charge of forging a will against a person named John Spong, and the circumstances were of a very peculiar cha acted. The will alleged to be forged was stated to have been executed so far back as December, 1819, and the alleged testator and attesting witnesses were all dead The question would turn on the handwriting, and there would be the evidence of certain persons that the signs tuns were not genuine. The handwriting of the testator and witnesses would be placed before them, and an " expert " would state his opinion that the signatures were not m the handwriting of the persons who wrote the other papers. The genuine will, which was attempted to be set aside, was executed in 1844, but the only property under it was a reversion, which only became available in 1864, and that was the reason why action was not taken on it sooner. The Recorder then referred to some other cases, and the jury thereafter retired to their room. POLICE COURTS.-(THIS DAY.) GUILDHALL. DANGEROUS 'limn.

THE ANNUAL GREAT CATTLE MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) One very interesting feature of this season of the year is the opportunity for a quiet chat with our country friends, who muster in strength at the cattle show ; and this, the great Christmas market. We learn from them the peculiar difficulties which they have to encounter in rearing the splendid animals which are brought together on these cmcsidcos. Happily we have had no return of rinderped, and so entirely has the fear of its reappear ance been diemiseed, that our friends complain greatly to-day that the restrictions which that terrible scourge ..muoirvA DMICAry have not been removed. Those re strictions have this year been suspended as to the cattle ; pla this has had a most • ' • ISOM a.. ..,umber 14 4 important bearing in this exhibition. A large 1 11 '^ consequently sent there, and the eonntry butchers, generally speaking, are more desirous than their Istallilt; brethren of making a show, have been initialed to buy largely. The result of the competition thus mined has been a quick sale at full prices. But as to the cattle wild at this market, it is still ordered that they mast be slaugh tered within the radius of the Metropolitan Board of Works. This is felt to be a grievance both by graders and butchers, and most especially on this day. There are also portions of the year when the provincial markets do not provide sufficient for local wants, but at this great central market there is always enough and often very much to spare. It is, however, all important that measures should be taken to prevent if possible the re-introduction of the plague from which we suffered so deeply only three years since. It is still largely insisted upon that the establishment of a separate foreign market would entirely meet the necessity of the case. This plan has in fact been adopted in the sheep department. owing to an outbreak of disease (not the rinderpest) amongst the foreign sheep, they have not been allowed to come into the market for some mouths past ; the buyers of them have been compelled to slaughter them at the place of debarkation. No doubt the whole subject will be well considered by competent authorities, and such regulations adopted as shall be for the general good. We have before expressed our 'opinion that it is not desirable to divide a long established market, unless a very strong case of nccessil be made out. We 12‘.7,:vtutt tmer an effective system of CoMpMent aaperrieloa Some relaxation of tta restrictions may be found practical. If the cattle were properly inspected before coming into the market and also before being atilt beyond the radius, they might, we think, be allowed to go by rail direct to the country butcher for immediate slaughter. The agriculturists are very pleased at having so practical a man as Mr. McCombia to represent their interests in parliament ; he has undertaken to do his utmost to bring about a settlement of this question. The especial difficulty graziers had to contend with in provid ing for this festive season was the long continued drought of the past summer. It was feared we should have to dis pense with our usual Christmas roast beef, or be con tented with a very small portiou. For many months past really choice beef has been very scarce, and has commanded high prices. Under these circumstance' it was agreeable to find that there were more entries than usual at the Birmingham and Agricultural-hall shows. The supply of to-day is also pretty good, all things con sidered. The great damage done to the breeding stock by the cattle plague must of necessity take some time to repair ; and all through the year stock Who been sent to market in entirely an unfit condition. We have not so many beasts of a prize character as usual, still there are some very fine specimens. Scotland certainly bears the palm. We noticed on Mr. (liblett's stand some ex traordinary animals. Mr. M'Combie's 35 made a grand show, bO/310 reaching the high figure of 601. each. The old familiar names of Knowles, Steweert, Martin, and Read have sent us some choicest qualities. Mr. Dixon'. stand is also furnished with excellent Scots. There are very few shorthorns to call for remark. Yet there are some small iota quite as good as usual. From the west country we have fewer than usual, and nothing of extraordinary character. We are glad to see improvement in the supply from Sussex. The big old worked beasts we used to have seem to have disappeared, but their place is supplied by a better class. On the whole no doubt the show of cattle is the worst we have had for some years. As to the sheep also it is generally remarked that so poor a show on the great day cannot be remembered. There are a few extraordinary South Downs, but very few indeed. In the long woelled class there is really nothing at all worthy of notice. The weather, although mad, has cleared up nicely, and it is probable everything will be disposed of at higher totes than for some months past. COMPARATIVE STATEMENT.
