Mr. DIIMMAII. with VASS Was Mr. Ainnasos, stated the plain tiffs case. He stated that this was arfactlon 'for a libel against , the Tames Paper, which appeared In the publication of a report on the 7th of April, 182$, by which the plaintiff, a gentleman distin guished in the literary world, was held up as a person capable of committing any act of dishonesty. The libel was published In a police report, which pretended to give an account of an rsamina• don which occurred at Marlborough-street, of a transaction In which the plaintiff had been meows& It ;solid be awe rr ke him (Mr. D.) to enter into a dead of the grammes* which gave rise to the attendance of the plaintiff at the Pollee 011 am At the house of the plaintiff a Gentleman of the name of iminsesesi was residing, and he having purchased a dressing-case of a men of the name of Levi. desired it to be sent to the plaintiff's redisseet the dressing-cue was accordingly sent. bet the boy who liteuelst k was told to call again for the money. Mr. Levi afterwards, came to the plaintiff's house, and seeing the dressing-cue on the side board in the dining room, rushed into the parlour and took it; upon this a gentleman of the name of Harvey, who was sitting at the table with Mr. Watts, expressed his opinion of such conduct, and' Mr. Watts rose and s aid Mr. Levi should not take the dressing.. case away in such a manner. Levi then went to the door and cried out thieves and murder, and collected it crowd round the house No. 58, Torrington-square. which was in • very quiet neigh. bourbood. Air. Watts then sent his servant foe an °Seer, and gave Levi into charge. When the parties arOved at Marlbohugh. street, the Magistrate was not sitting. This was on the eve of Good Friday. The Magistrate did not then sit, and it was therefore agreed that the officer who had the dressing-case should keep it in his possession until Saturday morning, when all the parties were to appear before the Magistrate. On the Saturday the parties did appear, and he (Mr. Denman) must take the liberty to express his surprise at the conduct of the Magistrate, Sir G. Fermi. who had adopted a most extraordinary course. This Magistrate, instead of hearing the chargei publicly, proceeded not withstanding the remonstrances of Mr. Watts, to hear it (the little he did hear) in the private room. How these things got into the newspapers he could not tell. How they reported pro ceedings which had been heard where no Ileptirters were admitted, he could not conceive ? But, nevertheless, a statement purporting to be an account of what did occur at the private hearing of this case appeared in the noses of the Monday following. On the Saturday, after this examination had occurred, Mr. W. called at the once of the Times, and requested that what had been stated at the Pollee Once might not be published, as it was an er-paere statement : to fact, Sir G. Ferran' bad stated, when the parties entered the once, that he did not intend to investigate the case; but if a charge was made by either party, he intended to bind the other over SO prosecute ; consequently no case was entered into although the plaintiff requested it. The Learned Counsel then read the libel, which was as follows : " MAIMPOILOVON-amass.-0o Saturday the following strange transaction, to which it is dincult to give a name, was investigated before Sir G. Farms., the Magistrate at this once. It appeared that about seven o'clock on Thursday evening, during the sitting of ore of the Magistrates, a livery servant came to the office in breath. less baste, and required the immediate assistance of two onion Ilion some important matter which he bad not time to explain, at the house No. 58. Torrington-square, and Clements and Goddard were instantly dispatched to look Into the emergency of the case, whatever it might br. So great was the haste, the servant said. with which their presence was required, that they ran at full speed the whole way, and were almost out of breath when they got to their destination. On entering the house in qurtion, they found four men in the passage, who had evidently only lest then made a tempo s ary cessation from a personal conflict ; and en Inquiring the nature of the strife, three of the party desired that he should take the tooth into custody, while the latter as strenuously urged him to capture the other three. The oaken. however. drtersalmed ant is act on the bidding of either piny without Merin essmetbing mere of the matter ' • and. after a good deal of time, and with much dif-. ticuity, they learned that a certain dressing-ease, which stood in view on a table in the parlouroras the boos of contention. and they eeeened it the best course to bring that article and all the parties at quarrel before the Magistrate. or at least to the Office, at once.. This they accordingly did; but Torrington-square being a con. siderable distance off, when they returned the Magistrate had retired, and nothing could be done about the matter that night, and the next day (Friday) being a dies wen, the affair of necemitp stood over until Saturday. but to secure the attendance of sk pees ties, the officers took down their names, arc. and retained possess sloe of the writing deli. Ai the hour appointed on Saturday, aN hour were punctual In their attendance, and on one side of dite question there appeared a gentleman who handed to the Msgistragt his engraved card, having on it Mr. Alaric A. Watts, 511. Tees**. ton-Square g" another gentleman, who gave his name" Enoner i re rh i i • and a third, who very reluctantly gave his name " Hervey." on the opposite side there stood one solitary tradesman, sie. L e d o en army and navy clothier, residing in Hemming's-row, St. Maw tin's-labe.• " The Magistrate having first called on Mr. Levi to state the nature of the tramectine, be gave it thus . r. Emigre°. (be i.aid,'Caelse to his shop and bargained fee a dye-sing use, the peke OK upon itbkh was twenty guineas; but after noose dismission he agreaktrkahe etghteen, ten of which were to be paid in money, and the resigning eight be (Mr. Isevi) stipulated to take cast. ol(visithts is gin Cis 'startlingly caged es ide. Nmasersein and selected tide old Bothell, which be bundled up; to be g ma to his young man, together with the ten &illness. when the dressing cue should be seat home, but it was distinctly understood and expressed that no credit was to be given but that the whole was to be a ready-nioney affair. On Thu rsday be (Mr. Levi) sent home the dressing case to the address Mr Emmerson bad given him, No. 58, Torrington-square, with strict injunctions to his young man, on no account to part with the dressing-case until he had the bundle of clothes and the ten games given to him ; but, to his astonishment, the lad returned without either dressing cads, clothes, or cash, and said that Mr. linunerson, when he got the dressing-cue into his possession, desired the lad to go about • his business, and tell Mr. Levi that he (Mr. Em men/so) would call on him and settle the matter.—The lad for some time refused to quit the house, but at last be was per suaded to come home empty-handed. On hearing this. he Levi) went up himself to Torrington square, half certain that ht was done out of his dressing case ; and when he inquired for Mr. Rmtrienon. be was surprised at being informed by Mr. Watts that Mr. Emmerson did not live there, that it was hi. (Mr. Watts's) house, that he could get no information there about either Mr. Em merson; or his dressing-ease. While this conversation was going on in the passage, he (Mr. Levi) saw his dressing-case standing o s a table in the parlour, and he in stantly made towards it, and declared that he would not quit the room without it; but he was instantly seized by Mr. Watts', and Mr. Harvey, who was in the parlour at the time, and in a few minutes suddenly came to their assistance. Mr. Emniersoo, who he was told was not in the house; all three dragged him out of the parlour, used him with great violence. and were about to expel him forcibly from the house, until finding that his' , cries of " murder" had collected a crowd of the neighbours round the door, they desisted; and under the pretence that he bad improperly entered the house, they sent for the police officers, of which be (Mr. Levi) was exceedingly glad, for the latter conducted themselves with the greatest propriety. Having made this state ment, Mr. Levi now preferred a charge of assault against his three opponents, and they in return preferred a similar accusation against him. " Sir Gamma FARRANT said that be should not hold either party to ball on these charges, but if they thought proper they might indict each other at the Sessions. _ _ _ _ _ " Mr. Emmerson said that be had bargained for the dressing case, as stated by Mr. Levi, and be intended to call nn the latter and settle with him the next day. He was quite above, he said, any imputation that Mr. Levi could make against him ; be had sent, be said, for his friend Colonel Leicester Stanhope, whom be ex pected every moment at the Office, to speak to his respectability. " Colonel Stanhope just now drove up in his cabriolet, and on his entering the Office, Mr. Emerson sakl he was glad he was come. " And so am I, said Mr. Levi,' very glad to see Colonel Stan hope here, for I have the honour of knowing him very well ; and the colonel will speak, lam sure, to my respectability u well as yours. Colonel Stanhope and his brother have laid out him. dreds with me. " Colonel Stanhope acquiesced in what Mr. Levi said, but took no part whatever in the proceedings, and thorily drove away as he came. " After a vast deal of altercation and discussion, it was in the end settled that ten guineas and Ike bundle of clothes should be deposited in the hands of Goddard, the officer, to be given to Mr. Levi, and in return, the officer was to give the dressing cue to Mr. Enunerson, and took it with him to Torrington-square, where the exchange was finally made ; but notwithstanding this arrange ment. Mr. Levi declared his determination to prosecute for the aseault, and the other parties expressed an equal resolution on the same point." The Learned Counsel then observed, that a great part of this was untrue, and a great deal had been omitted. That the lad went back empty handed, was unfounded ; and that Mr. Levy used the words, " done out of his dressing-ease," was also un true— it was an elegant expression of the neves Newspaper. No person would imagine that a Gentleman of Mr. Emitter. son's respectability intended to " do " Levi out of his dressing case; but he would now state what the Thses thought of its own conduct in publishing this report. Mr. Watts and Mr. Emmersoa drew up a statement contradicting the report, and went to the Thu* office ; there they were told they could lee the Editor in the evening. They therefore left the statement, and went again to the office in the evening. They then saw the de. (cadent, who told them he could nor insert it Its the Paper except as an advertisement, and demanded five guineas for its insertion. The Plaintiff refused to give this, and consequently the contradiction was never inserted. The plaintiff afterwards threatened to bring an settee, and he was referred to Mr. Platt and Mr. Gibbs ; a meet ing took place, and the attorney of Mr. Watts and Mr. Harvey were present • Mr. Platt then stated that he bad full power to act, and that it was then agreed that a statement should be inserted ia the paper contradicting the report, and that a leading article should also be inserted, calling the attention of the public to the statement. This never appeared, although it was promised by Mr. Platt, and the consequence was, that the action was com menced. He (Mr. Denman) would prove that the report was in correct; and be had no hesitation in saying, that every person would believe that the plaintiff had acquiesced in this attack on his character if he had not brought this action to vindicate it. He should not, therefore, say any thing about damages, but should proceed to call witnesses to substantiate his case. The publication of the noes was admitted, and the libel was put in as evidence, and read by the officer of the Court. Mr. Rmmerson examined by Mr. Ar.neasos.— Am acquainted with the plaintiff; was residing at his house in April. 18211. and some time previously. While I was residing there, I called at the shop of Mr. Levi ; it was on the 3d of April; I resided there to keep my terms at one of the Inns of Court. Mr. Levi kept a shop. and I saw a dressing-case in the window, for which I agreed to give him 10 guineas in money, another dressing-case, and some old clothe*. Mr. Levi received the money and the old clothes in Torrington-square on the Id of April. It was on the 2d of April that I made the bargain. The dressing-case was sent home on the 3d of April, about four o'clock in the afternoon ; a boy brought it. and he took sway my dressing-case and the old clothes. The ten guineas was not paid, but the boy was to call the tweet day or is about an hour. Mr. Watts was nut privy to the bargain. dined abort five oclock. Mr. Jitney dined there. I left the table immediately after dinner for the purpose of getting the money. I returned in about twenty minutes. I then saw a great number of persons about the door, and Levi walking about the parlour with his hat on; he was calling Mr. Watts a swindler, and he also said, that we were all swindlers together.—. Mr. Watts told me be had seat for a police Acct. I went to look for them. and met them in Torringtos.square. When I returned with the officers Mr. Watts was in the passage, and requested them to take the Jew into custody. Levi then charged Mr. Watts with an assault. The Where took Levi into custody, and I placed the, dressing-ease in the hands of the officers ; it was standing on the side board. I went to the police office with Mr. Watts ; we did notl kale the house until a quarter of an hour after the officers. I think two servants of Mr. Watts's went to the once; I do not think Mr. Harvey accompanied us ; the ofke was closed when we arrived.' We again went on Saturday marring, and Sir G. nature was sit ting. The case was heard in what I was told was she private room. Mr. Watts objected to the case being heard in the private room, as he wished to satisfy his neighbours. Levi was in the private room with an attorney and his boy. On Mr. Watts saying he objected to the case being hard there, Sir G. hamar? said he was not going to hear the case. and then turned to Levi and said, lithe case seems to rest with you." The charge that Levi made was an outline of the transaction. but grossly exaggerated. Lord TINTERDSII observed that he would not put that down. Examination continued—Levi then recapitulated what bad ois. cursed during my absence from Torrington-square.. Goa of the , alms said be had received Levi in charge from Mr. Watts, and that Levi bad charged Mr. Watts with assault og him. Levi did not say that be was dime out of the dressing ease. nor that he ego. Vetted he was. Colonel Leicester Stanhope came to the ogee when the affair was concluded ; do not know Colonel Lincoln _ - _ .Stanbope, hi. brother. When I observed Col. Stanhope was coming Mr. Levi observed that he knew Cal. Marthope, but when he came in, Levi did not claim acquaintance with him. Col. Stanhope came at my request. He left the alike with Mr. Watts, Mr. Here.!, and myself. We walked towards Oafordasereet. Neither Mr. Mitts uor his witnesses were examined. Mr. Watts requested it severaltinses. Sir G. FA SILANT °Nerved, that he was not hearing the cam. and therefore declined hearing them. In the course of 'that day I wept to the llesn newspaper ofilett. I aw A person wham I did not know. I wrote. note oa the Saturday. It said that the proceedings that morning at Marlborough -street were er putt, and that they contained statements which were not true sad that the answer of Mr. Watts had not be e n r e c e iv e d.

We wale told that we could see the Editor in the evening : we saw a clerk who requested say communication for the Editor to be left. This wee the nose we lett. (Note 'produced.)

It was returned, artall _ ;,~ _. considerable erasures, and I was told it must be still considered as an advertisement. A sum was mentioned as the charge, if inj sorted, but it was more than five guineas. The statement was them read. Mr. gatmerson, in answer to some questions from the Arnim user-Gqpsur.. said be did not swear the affidavit after be left q copy at the office of the rums. It was not sworn in a Chancery cause. It was sworn before Master Wingfield. The affidavit was then read. _ _ _ Examination continued—l was aWI told that this affidavit muss be an advertisement. I was afterwards present at an Interview between Mr. Watts. Mr. Plut o Mr. Burrow gh and Mr. Gibbs. Notice of an seeks had then bees given. Mr. tit appeared on behalf of the Times . The interview lasted up ds of an hour. Mr. Platt did not read the addavit, he was perfectly satisfied with one explanation. At that interview a written paper was drawn op, but after Mr. Platt had left, Examination continued.—The paper was afterwards produced at Mr. Platt's house on a second interview; its terms were can vaned. A statement was ultimately agreed upon This is the statement—(Statement produced.) It was to be published in the Thus, and a leading article was to be inserted, to call attention to k. Upon that being done, we consented to forego the action.— Me. Platt expressed his thanks to us for our forbearance. The statement was then put in and read ; it contained a contra diction of the leading points in the police report. The paragraph which wu to be inserted as a leading article was also read. Cross-examined by the Aeseaear-Gansaat.—Those papers last put is were not giveo by 51r. Watts to Mr. Platt. Don't recollect saylog—" Suppose they don't publish them." Saw Mr. Platt after wards at Mr. Watts's house; he said they would not consent to publish the paragraph as a leading article, but would publish the statement. I did write a note to Levi when he sent a second time. I rose from the dinner table to do so. The note said that I con sidered his importunity insolent. When the boy came for the money, I said I would pay him the same afternoon, or next morn ing. I positively swear it. As far as I recollect, that note con tained a true representation. The cross-examination of the witness then proceeded as follows. ___ ... —Had known Mr. Watts since Ind. Mr. Watts bad been the editor of a newspaper at Leeds. Since Mr. Watts had left Leeds, wkoess knew that be bad been engaged on the Moresferd, but did not know in what capacity. Witness had occasionally written fur a newspaper, but was never engaged, and bad never been paid for his snick.. Had placed the dressing-case in the ofiker's hands be cause Levi said it was his property, and had attempted to seize it. Levi concurred in the desire that it should be taken to the police office. Did not know whether he suggested it or not. When wk. tress returned to Watts's be found Levi there. Never told him he should not have his dressing-case. Had been abse►t about twenty minutes. The money was to have been paid to Levi that day. Re-examined—The boy had the option of not leaving it at aU. It was on the third time of his coming that witne.s got up from dinner to write the note. Thos. Kibble Harvey—Was dining with Mr. Watts on the day of the disturbance ; remembered several messengers coming. Mr. Em merson was out when the second messenger came ; heard a knocking and Mr. W. went out ; witness remained in the dining.room ; beard some persons talking loudly in the hall, and wished to ascertain what was the matter, then heard Mr. Levi insisting :upon having , either his dressing-case or the money ; Mr. Watts told him be could not give it up without some power. He then told him he. might either sit down in the hall, and wait till Mr. Emmerson came hack, or call again. He stamped with his feet and knocked about the chairs. Mr. Watts then raised up his hand and mashed hint towards the door. Mr. Watts did not use any violence; but when he attempted to push him towards the door the latter cried out " murder" and " thieves," and attempted to go out. Wit neas saw a crowd round the house. and went out and brought ' him back ; Levi on seeing the box in the dining room, aid,' that is my box, and I cannot go away without it." Mr. Watts then said, he thought the best way to prevent the neighbourhood from being alarmed was to send for officers. Levi kept showing himself to the crowd, and made a great noise. Mr. Emmerson was in the ball, and io about two minutes returned with the officers, but then there was no appearance of a contest. Mr. Watts gave Levi in charge, and they took him away with them. The remainder of this witness's evidence corroborated the testimony of Mr. Rattner sou. It was not insinuated that Mr. Emmerson bad been in the house while be was inquired for. Nothing passed before the Ma gistrate as to Mr. Watts basing denied Mr. Emmerson. It .was not elated that witness. Mr Watts and Mr. Emmerson. had used great violence to Mr. Levi. Cross-examined by the Arronsev-Geusaat.—Wu now living with Mr. Watts. Never objected to giving his name at Marlbo rough-street. Could not swear to the precise words used by Mr. Watts when Levi came. Did not think Mr. Watts told Levi that Mr. Hammon was gone to get the time,. Witness and one of the servants assisted in pulling Levi in, when be attempted to go out. Levi had been in the ball about tat minutes before he saw the box. Mr. Watts Isom that Emmerson was gone to got the money before Levi came. Emmerson did not bring back the money when he returned. Levi was not struck bp any body in witness's presents ; Levi certainly said he would not go unless the box went with him, and desired the officers to take the box with them; the box was the only cause of dispute, to cheat him of his box. The Magistrate said the Sessions were so near, that, he did out "dab to go into the tan. Mr. Watts was very desirous of being beard. and was very angry when the Magistrate said be would nut go into the cast. Cross-ezandeed by the Common &mama—His reason for put. ling Levi into the house was, that he was calling thieves and murder. Was certain that Levi was told Emniersoa would soon be there. Was the author of several literary works. W. Weston, who was footman to Mr. Watts when thetransac. thin took place, was then called. His testimony went to corro borate that given by the other witnesses. The written papers left at the Tina office were pot in and read. The Artonsev•Gxmatuit addressed the Jury in behalf of the eefentiant. but called no witnesses. Lord fiIITIMDIX left the Jury to say whether the report pub. fished in the Teases was a fair account of the transaction. If they should be of *Moo that it was incorrect and injurious to the plaintiff, their verdict ought to be for the plaintiff with moderate damages, The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages, £5O.
