Mr. Mu; Opened the proceedings, and stated that this was an action brought by Mr. 13ockiogham, the well-known traveller in Palestine, apinst Mr. Murray, the respectable bookeeller, and pub lisher of the Quarterly Reeky, for i libel which appeared in No. 34 of that work. The hbel was contained in an aftiele which pro teased tote a ethical review of Baehhigkalies Travels is Palestine, but it was, he said. a gross attack on the veracity and respectability of the plaint ff. The Learned Counsel thin .read from p. 380 of the Quarterly Rains. for March. 1822, the imputed libel. The defendant pleaded the trutb.in justsfication. Mr. Scants?: then addressed the Jury, and observed upon the complicated nature of the pleadings, which were numerous. Ms. Buckingham, he mid, was well known as having edhed a news. paper at Calcutta, and having performed travels in countries hitherto but little known to Europeans, hence this work; Travelsin Pitlesthle. The defendant in this ease, as publisher of this Review, had lent himself to publish, against the plaintiff, that species of per. !moat slander, which was stepping beyond all bosinds of fair criti cion, making the Review. a vehicle of the basest and most slanderous imputations on private character, and such as could only emanate from personal malice under the sleeker of an anonymous signature. lie (Mr. Scarlet) wonll say it was a much cosier matter for a closeted Reviewer to throw ink silts at an author, than to have furnished a work of much greatt r merit, arid which the critic should be found himself incapable of executing. The object of Mr. Rockingham, in undertaking these Travels, he should sti.te, was to facilitate the overland Conveyance between this country and India, through the Isthmus of Suez, this being an object of great corrniercial importance to various mer ;chants. both in England and Bombay. litre the Learned Counsel went through an historical sketch of Mr. Buckingham's journey and return to Bambay (tom Aleppo, and afterwards to Calcutti.- -The notes and observationa of Mr.. Rockingham, of these Travels, as recomntended by tha Bishop of Calcutta, for publication, were offered to Mr. Murray for publication, and he had actually agreed to become the. publisher, but, for some reasons, Mr. Buckingham withdrew his MSS. and published the wort on his own account ; atter which followed this libellous attack. It has been stated, said Mr. &anent. that for the sake of . bribe of 51. or 101. the moss paltry novel would he puffed off by these • Reviewers, whilst the most useful work of science or literature. might be made the subject of most malign art slander or gni-representation. The charge and imputation. east upon Mr. Rockingham, by this Reviewer, was pi, tending to pity his ignoritnee,. for omitting to notice certain historical facts relative to the ancient city df Ukhaur, or (Inches', Which ilr. Blickinglianrework would be found nut in have omitted as charged ; yet these - were the misrepresentations ibis Reviewer had recourse to, in order t 3 destroy the character of this work. Similar remarks were made In' teapot to other places. It Is also asserted in the &ekes. that Mr. Buckingham's plates are pilfered iron% former travellers. Mr. 11. complained that this critic had looked nu further than the Index of his book, pretending to have not only reviewed, but visited those veil countries himself, wbkb he, moreover, denies that kr. Buckingham ever visited. The libel farther charged Mr. Buckingham with ingratitude to his em payer, a Mr. Ranks, who had paid his (31r. Buckingham's) el -1 pens,' during a certain portion of these travels. He - (Mr. 1 ' Searldt) would silken, that no reviewer had a right . (and DO Gentleman of honour or respectability could be capable of such an abuse of literary prtillege) to introduce hearsay slander upon the private . character of the author, whose work the anonymous critic .' Newspaperstanders, he said, were read, and lastea for a day, but Rearm were' handed down to posterity.

OR the body of a young man named John Platt. who died in consequence of the injuries he received in a pugilistic encounter, as stated in the STAR of yesterday. It ap pe 'red that on Saturday evening the deceased and others were in the Five Bells politic-house, at Finchley. playing at nine pins. A dispute arose between the de ceased and a man' of the name of J.irdan, a fellow workman, as to who should pay for two pints of beer; they agreed to decide it by the issue of another game. which the deceased lost, and then refused to pay, and made use of improper language towards Jordan, and turning to Jordan ' s wife, he used the same insulling language towards her. Jordan, who appears to be a very quirt, inoffensive man, receive] it very patiently, and did not resent even a blow which the deceased gave him in the breast. Mr. Wisdom, the land.ord. on ob 'serving what had passed, told the decea.ed that he would not allow any fighting on his ground. The de ceased immediately repeated the same improper la.;- guise to Jordan, and said he would knock his head off. Jordan then struck him, and the landlord again told them that he would not allow them io fl A ht on his pie noises. The deceased and Jordan then went into an adjoining fled, and pleparatiqns were made for the battle. Platt, who was a square-built man, and much heavier and stouter the r Jordan, was seconded by his brother. Platt's brother-in-law officiated for Jordan. In the epinion of the Jury, therefor, iv% enze.J to !e q'ine di family concern. likt4e tour eof the fight, the decea-.eJ Le-towed on his anTilion6t some very I eavy n ows.

This was the sutistance of the e v idence adduced before the Jury, respecting the fight. A surgeon, flamed Stacey, sail, he was tailed upon at two o'clock on Sunday morning, to attend the deceased, who complained of great pain in the abdomen. He continued in this state until night, when the inflammation having terminated in gangrene, be died. The deceased had itifortne.i him, that during the fight he had re ceived several talk ; he was much bruised in the face; and the witness was of opinion; that this violent exercise, accompanied by the blurs woutd have produced the mortification and death. Soreral of the Jury tat se: yeti, that it Walb impossible kir any man. ' possessed or the teelings or an Englishman, to avoid returning a blow. It was their duty to endeavour, tf possible, to put an end to such practices; they would u.t encourage pus 'lining, which ti would leave children pendent upon the poufs I. 4pport. But however anxious they might by to prevent prize -t„ .44. this was sot a case in which a haute cutud titer been prorented. _ __ The Counties said, hr dad nut think l— hat worn a person was beat about and grossly Washed, he was toe:main front dercuding himself. When Jordan was beat and knocked about, and had every proved cition given Mtn to tight, he certainty was justified in rrturn.ng the bits/whaled to strike as hard as lie could. Ile was of opinion, that when Jordan's wife saw him strock in her presence, and foutuctit .t he had not courage sufficient to resent it,ohe might have kicked him out of the isou-e the next day. This was nut to be compared -- to a-prize-fight between twtrscientifie nten i NlS take care not to hen each,other. .one of -the Jury was of opinion, that when such contests arose on a landlord's ground. he shout . put the men in the cage. The Commute said, that be should be very sorry to be a landlord if lie was Compelled tq do so, as he should expect to have his head knotted *host a good many times: With reterence the.easo before them, there was no doubt that the deceased died 'of. the injuries he received in the fight. The only que4tion was, whether .Jordan had not received sufficient provot.ition to uiduce hiM to return the blows? According to the evidence, he was of opinion that. the deceased was the aggressor, and he thought they ought to return a verdict to prevent his being punished. The Jury were not inclined to return a verdict of " Justifiable • Homicide," on the ground that it 'would encourage such practices in future. They therefore returned the following verdict :—" That the deceased died of an inflammation in the bowth r in consequence Of the blows which he received in a fight with 'llamas Jordan, who gave them in his own defence."
