The fearfnl dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of DU BARRY's invalthible HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of £5,000, from selling any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of whit% we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor mation of any breach of the injunction. An intelligent public requires no admonition to shun all shopkeepers who may attempt impositions. London : BARRY DU BARRY % CO, NO MO RE SICKLY OR ILL-CONDITIONED HORSES 011 OTHER CATTLE.

This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medicalreader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—Lonflon Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr, Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is Sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter." — Dublin Medical Press.

CIRCULAR OF COUNT CAVOUR - The following is another circular of Count de Cavour to the diplomatic agents of Sardinia: — TURIN, JUNE 16. Sir,—By my circular of yesterday I made known to you that the duchies of Modena and Parma, and also Lombardy, on being delivered from the pre sence of Austrian troops, proclaimed the overthrow of the Government and their annexation to Pied mont—thereby renewing for the house of Savoy the act they executed 11 years ago. The exceptional position of this country obliges me to enter into some details on this subject for the legations of the King. It is evident that at the beginning of the war Piedmont could not have recognised the neutrality of the duchies, even if it had been formally pro claimed ; for the Dukes of Modena and Parma were bound by special conventions, which, in spite of general treaties, gave up their territories to Austrian armies, and consequently established between Austria and the duchies obligatory rela tions incompatible with the duties of a real neu- trality. These conventions are known. The treaties of the 24th December, 1847, and the 4th February, 1848, expressly set forth that the States of H.R.H. the Duke of Modena and of H.R.H. the Duke of Parma enter the line of defence of the Italian pro vinces of the Emperor of Anstria, and that conse quently the latter has the right to send troops into Modena and Parma, and to occupy fortresses there, as often as his interests may require, By one of the clauses of these treaties, which gives the measure of the foresight of the Auexian Government, the: Sovereigns of Modena and Parma are bound not to conclude with any other Power any military con vention whatever without the previous consent of the Imperial Government of Vienna. These stipulations so clear and precise did not permit the Duchies to maintain neutrality. The Dukes of Parma and Modena ought to have de nounced them previous to the commencement of hostilities in order to replace their States in the conditions required for obtaining the immunities of neutral States. Now, nothing of the kind took place ; on the contrary, the Duchies were thrown open to the Imperial troops which were massed on the frontier of Piedmont, and they thus became one of the bases of operations of the enemy. Hostili ties were commenced, and Piedmont was invaded by the frontier of one of those States ; and yet no protest was made on the part of the Princes, and they, in point of fact, encouraged the attack. Courtesy and international duties required, at least, that some communication should be made to Sar dinia for the purpose of giving explanations on the intentions and conduct of these Governments under such extraordinary circumstances ; but no commu nication on the subject was made to us. Sardinia was consequently, in law and in fact, in a state of war with the States which bad become an integral part of the military system of Austria. The Governments of Modena and Parma could not even urge as a pretext their ignorance of the intentions of Sardinia ; for since 1848 we have not ceased to protest against the stipulations which constituted a flagrant violation of the Euro pean treaties and a permanent danger to the security of our frontiers. The Austrian invasion, effected from the territory of Piacenza, proves too clearly how well founded our previsions were. The Duke of Modena, as an Archduke of Austria, shared the hatred to Piedmont which his family entertained; his heart, like his crown. was with the foreigner ; he was destined to share the fate of the Power with which he had bound up his States. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Parma was not in the same condition ; her birth, and the per sonal qualities which honour her, cause very sin cere interest to be felt for her. Her Government ought ta have followed a line of conduct more be becoming and more in conformity with its interna tional duties. But unfortunately the Cabinet of Parma has been dragged down the incline on which it was slipping ; it has refused to abandon the posi tion which it had voluntarily accepted towards Austria. It was on the territory of Parma that the invasion of Piedmont was prepared; it was from thence that the Imperial troops came to invade our provinces. Piacenza became the base of the offen sive operations of Count Gyulai. It has been said that a European treaty con ferred on Austria thc.vight of putting a garri son in that town. We do not deny the fact ; but that military servitude had only a defensive object, as it expressly said in the treaty, and. the Powers which signed it took care to de clare that all the regalian rights of territorial sovereignty were reserved. Now it is by a special and voluntary convention between Austria and Parma that the latter has abdicated the most essential rights of sovereignty, by leaving the former full liberty to enter the fortifications of Piacenza and to construct new ones, by promising every aid and assistance to Austrian engineers, and by providing them with workmen and with the necessary materials (Art. 7 of the Convention of 14th March, 1822). It is also by a special treaty freely consented to that the Sovereigns o f Parma have given to Austria the right of penetrating into their territories as often as she thinks fit. Sardinia protested against the extension of the fortifications of Piacenza, which changed the nature and object of the occupation ; she has protested against the treaty of the 4th February, 1848. Has the Govern ment of Parma ever declared that it only submitted to the law of the strongest ? Has it, at least, tes tified regret at what was taking place under its eyes ? Everything was prepared at Piacenza for the invasion of the King's states ; the ultimatum of Vienna arrived at Turin; the Austrian corps d'armee moved ; they entered Piedmont ; Voghera and Tor tona were occupied ; Alessandria was menaced ; our communications with Genoa compromised ; and yet the Cabinet of Parma remained silent—it mani fested no concern for the fate of a neighbouring State with which it maintained friendly relations. It was not until the plans of the enemy had failed; it was not until the allied armies of Piedmont and France, having taken the offensive in their turn, the Austrians were on the eve of evacuating the Duchies of Parma and Piacenza—it was not until then that neutrality and the desire to take military measures with regard to Parma and Piccenza were spoken of. But it was too late. The Cabinet of Parma had, however, not even the right to make propositions of the kind referred to, inasmuch as by Art. 4 of the treaty of 1848 it had formally bound itself not to conclude any military arrangements whatever without the consent of Austria. These facts and these reasons, which it is impor tant to make known and cause to be appreciated, explain and justify the conduct of the King's Go vernment. Whatever might be the interest it felt in the Duchess of Parma, it could not make any distinction between Parma and Modena. The neu trality of those duchies was impossible in law and in fact ; they were bound to share the fate of the Power to which they had voluntarily confided their destinies. The legation of his Majesty will conform the language to the considerations which precede.

J. L. PULLEN. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General's Report) The mortality in London begins to increase, as is usual at this period of the year. The deaths, which were 913 and 970 in the two previous weeks, rose to 1,024 in the week that ended last Saturday. In the ten years 1849-58 the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,126 ; but, as the deaths returned for last wee k occurred in an increased population, they can only be compared with the average raised in proportion to the increase, namely, with 1,238. It appears, therefore, that the deaths registered last week were less by 214 than the number as obtained by calcu lation ; but it should be observed that deaths on which inquests have . been held are now registered with greater uniformity than they were previously, when they were permitted to accumulate till the end of the quarter, a circumstance which, to a con siderable extent, affects the comparison. The aver age number of deaths from violence registered in last week of the spring quarter in previous years was 107, whereas last week the number was 48. The diarrhoea of summer is now makino,. per ceptible progress. In the last three weeks the deaths caused by it have been successively 20, 34, and 58. Of these 58, all except two occurred to children, and a very large proportion to infants in their first year. It is remarkable, that while 16 deaths from diarrhoea occurred last week in the west districts, 13 in the north, 17 in the east, and 11 in the south, only one. occurred in the central group, which besides other districts, comprises St. Giles, Holborn, Clerkenwell, and the City. A child died at . 6, Austin-street, Hackney-road, from diar rhoea, a family where two other deaths have occ urred within a month, in consequence, it is stated, of deficient drainage, which is now reme died. A boy died of cholera after six days' illness, at 79, High-street, Shadwell ; and another of " choleraic diarrhoea (four days)," at 36, Charles street, Saffron-hill. A sailor was drowned in the London docks, and the coroner's jury were of opi nion, that though he had been immersed only three minutes, recovery was rendered impossible by the foul condition of the water. There were 42 deaths from scarlatina; also 21 from diptheria, three of these in the sub-district of Belgrave, three in Long acre. A child was choked by a cherry-stone ; another by a nutshell. A girl, aged three years, died June 22d from sunstroke. Six persons died from intemperance, besides five whose deaths are recorded as caused by " delirium tremens." Last week the births of 883 boys and 907 girls, in all 1,790 children , we re registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1849-58 the average number was 1,610. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.907 in. The barometer increased from 29.73 in. on Sunday to 30.02 in. on Saturday, being the lowest and highest readings in the week. The mean tempe rature of the week was 63.5 degs., which is 2.2 degs. above the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher.) The mean daily temperature was about 8 degs. above the average on Sunday and Monday ; it fell below the a verage on Wednesday an d two following days. The thermometer in the sh ade rose to its highest point on Sunday, when it was 81.3 degs. ; it fell to its lowest on Thursday , when it was 48.5 degs. The extreme range of the week was therefore 32.8 degs. ; the mean daily range was 21.1 degs. The difference between the m ean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 7.7 degs. The mean de gree of humidity of the air was 77. The mean temperature of the water of the Thames was 65.6 degs., or 2.1 degs. higher than that of the air. On Sunday the wind blew from the south-east ; on the last three days from the north and northeast. Rain fell in the week to the amount of P 24 in., chiefly on Saturday . The lightning, which con tinued during four hours almost without intermis sion, was unusually vivid, and illuminated the whole sky. Rain fell to the depth of 0 .8 in. ; but the storm did not approach very near the Observa tory, and no damage was done in that neighbour hood. Loss OF A SCREW STEAMER.—IIAMBURG, TUES DAy.--The Leith steamer Dunedin, bound for this port, with passengers and a general cargo, was in collision _last night with the Lady Alice Lambton screw steamer, out ward bound, and the Dunedin immediately went down in six fathoms water. The accident occurred off Osti. The crew and passengers were saved. FATAL GUN ACClDENT.—lnformat ion has been received by Charles R. Carttar, Esq., coroner for Rent, of the death of Abraham Nelson Sampson, a young man only 22 ye . ars of age, from a gun-shot wound indicted accidentally to Mr. by himself on Monday. He was in a field belonging May, farmer, of St. Paul's Cray, whitherhe had gone accom panied by his brother and another person for the purpose,of shooting rats, and at the moment of the accident was k.neel ing down holding his gun by the muzzle, !and pushing . it from him•on the ground. In so doing the trigger caught in gull were lodged in the some way, and the contents of the poor fellow's bowels. He was immediately attended by a medical man, but the injuries were mo rtal, and he expired about an hour and a half after the accident. LAW INTELLIGENCE -July 5. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Baron Pollock and a Special Jury.) SWINFEN V. LORD CHELMSFORD (LATE SIR F. THESIGEF..) • The case for the plaintiff having closed, The Lord Chief Baron asked Mr. Kennedy if he wished to offer any evidence on the second count, whiCh was to the effect that the judge illegally ex pressed hi•nself to the defendant, Sir F. Thesiger, the counsel for Mrs. Swinfen, that the case was going against him, and that upon such communica tion he, Sir Frederick, compromised the matter. Mr. Kennedy said that he had proved every word of the count. Sir F. Kelly, in a court literally crammed to suf focation by members of the bar, rose to reply, and asked if there was any evidence whatever to go to the jury. The Lord Chief Baron said that he had not the slightest doubt that there was not a particle of evidence upon the second count. Sir F. Kelly proceeded with' his address, and said he hardly knew what course to take. For the first time in his experience, extending over half the period allotted to man, he heard a gentleman de nounced by a member of the bar in language ill befitting even the atmosphere of the Old Bailey. A nobleman and a gentleman, himself one of the brightest ornaments in his profession, had been stigmatised in a manner that was perfectly shock ing to hear. Even the. Lord Chief Justice, a man whom 'they all respected, had not escaped, whilst the very judge who tried the case had been held up as a brute for his conduct by the learned counsel on the other side. Mr. Kennedy appealed to the Court whether he had used such ii phrase. - Sir F. Kelly proceeded to say that such was the way in which the case had been conducted. He would tell the jury that this case was one of the greatest importance, involving as it did the liberty and independence of the law. Whenever that liberty and independence disappeared, whenever juries could be intimidated and controlled, they might rely upon it that a blow would be struck at the liberty and independence of the subject which would not be easily recovered. The noble lord who was the defendant in this action was charged, at the time he was counsel for the plaintiff, with having betrayed the interest of his client for base purposes, and had degraded hi 3 profession—a really criminal charge. And it was brought against a man who, while he was a . member of Ow bar, had never done any one act to sully his own honour or to cast a blot on his fair fame. The jury were aware that the whole question of the trial in which the noble lord was counsel arose on the construction of a will which was made by Mr. Swinfen on the 7th of July, 1854. The heir-at-law filed a bill in equity to set aside the will, and was supported by the other members of the family. The learned counsel then entered into a resume of the Swinfen case, which has been so many times before the public. The ground upon which the noble lord had acted for the compromise was, that evidence would, after the first day, have to be adduced before the jury which would show that when Mr. Swin fen, sen., made his will he was over 80 years of age, confined to his bed, and utterly unable to manage his uwn affairs. Sir F. Thesiger felt that he would not be able to contend successfully against testimony of this kind, coming, too, from the mouths of his own witnesses—he felt that when they would prove that within a few days of the making of the will by the testator, the memory of the latter was so far gone that he could not be made to understand that his only son was dead ; his case was gone, and the best thing to do was to compromiss it on the most favourable conditions he could for his client. The other three counsel in the case perfectly agreed with the course that had been taken by Sir F. Thesiger. What decided Sir F. Thesiger was certainly what he had learned from the judge who had tried the case, in a few words they had with each other at the close of the first day's trial. Mr. Justice Cresswell, when at the bar, was a very old friend of Sir Frederic Thesiger, and when one had gone on the bench and the other remained at the bar that friendship continued. The words upon which such strange comments were made were these :—Mr. Justice Cresswell had said to Sir F. Thesiger, in a very confidential way._, " Cockburn made a nice attack on your lady witnesses yesterday." The learned counsel then feared that this circumstance, coupled with the evidence before alluded to, would give his case a blow from which it could not possibly recover. Lord Chelmsford, who had sat and heard all that had been said about himself, had been charged as a criminal by Mr. Kennedy, and one whom he (Mr. Kennedy) had brought to the bar of justice. Mr. Kennedy had dared to impute to his lordship that he had endeavoured to stifle inquiry. To stifle in quiry ? Why, Lord Chelmsford would be called before them, and Mr. Kennedy would have the opportunity of proving his charges out of his lord ship's mouth, not only upon that, but every part of his conduct. Mr. Whitmore, another counsel in the case, was present when the interview was held between Mrs. Swinfen and Sir Frederic Thesiger, and strongly urged her himself to accept the com promise offered. Mr. 'Whitmore would also be called to state his version of the transaction. He even complimented Sir Frederic upon his discre tion in not alluding to the remarks of the judge in reference to the attack on the lady witnesses. Mrs. Swinfen went home, and the next morning sent down a telegram thus—" The offer is refused." That at once put an end to all further negotiations,' and he was prepared to do his duty by his client. Sir A. Cockburn never made any offer whatever, but it is quite possible that they had had some con versation on the matter. Counsel often have con versations, on these will cases especially. They say, " It is a pity that these people, who are relatives, should litigate this. They will go on from trial to trial until the whole of this little property is wasted." Such conversations as that occur at all times in these cases between counsel, and it was probably such a one as led to the compromise in question. From the time a counsel is retained in a case, if there be one object more than another to which political feeling and private friendship are forborne for the moment, and laid aside, it is the great object of getting a verdict for his client. Every counsel knows what it is, and no counsel would dare to compromise a case if he could by any means obtain a verdict. It is the great object for which they all struggle. Their reputation and their peace of mind are bound up in their success, and if they think there is no chance of a verdict, the next thing they endeavour to do is to make the best terms they can for their client. Sir Frederic Thesiger was opposed by his great rival, Sir Alex. Cockburn, now the Lord Chief Justice of England, with all that skill for which he was so famed, and he well knew that when Mrs. Charles Swinfen was called the cause was gone. The Lord Chief Justice would be called, and if Mr. Kennedy dared to ask the question from him, the judge would tell him that the verdict was in his hands, but he had told the heir-at-law that Mrs. Swinfen ought to be liberally dealt by, and hence the offer of £l,OOO a-year. If there was any fraud in the conduct of Sir Frederic Thesiger, then the other counsel, judge, and jury were equally guilty. Mr. Kennedy had charged Sir Frederic Thesiger that, for the sake of attending to a case at Swan sea, he had " robbed" his client of her estate. Dur ing the 35 years he (Sir F. Kelly) had been amem ber of the bar of England he h ad never hear d suc h an imputation thrown upon an y one connected.aa u with r w th h e e bar n as Sir n the law, to say nothing o f a man through such a brilliant career at _ one. decr charge, too, Frederic (Lord Chelmsford) heading _ examined to say that such had been made by a member of thedbar of England.swinfen s ' ai t d iff T i i nthe en byLsoirrdFC.hicelerallsyf.ord was then gas and e gaged as lead odfay.

He said that they were not unfriendly disposed. I then communicated with counsel and attorneys, and I told them this matter should be arranged if it could. I ordered Mrs. Swinfen to be sent for, and she came. Mr. Cole was present. I most certainly deny stating that any offer whatever had been made by the other side. I never said I had received a communication high quarter,. or anytbing. rWit 2,s i* i, eve that.l had had any con . '4: likg; It , judge.

She said OA could do nothing - without consulting a friend;`' Sir Henry Durrant. He came, and the result was that she saidshe would return to town and let me know the result by tele graph. I felt the jury was against us;. ond I felt the pulse on the other side as well a I could, to see what could be done. This was on the Saturday, and the message came at two o'clock on the Sun day from Mrs. Swinfen, saying " The offer is re fused." We did not consider that satisfactory ; as no offer - had been ma d e , but at the same time I said to Mr. Alexander, " Then we must fight it out." On the Monday Mr. Simpson came and told me that it was very necessary the case should be arranged, for he had heard that. Mrs. Swinfen gave orders that Mrs. C. Swinfen should 'be -refused admission to the testator. I said " Vcry .;,;41 ,. . I will go to the Attorney-General and offer to take £l,OOO a year," which I had every reason to believedie would give. I spoke to him going into court, anithe agreed to give us £l,OOO a-year. That was to be basis of an arrangement. We had a long di scuss i on with the Attorney-General about the costs, and they agreed to pay us £1,250. I tried hard to get £1,500. After that Colonel Dyott, the high sheriff, interfered, arid the Attorney-General told me his client had broken off the negotiations.' I spoke to him, and said it was very unhandsome. I then requested Colonel Dyott to retire from in terfering with the case, as he was not interested ; and he did so. I felt satisfied that if the case came into court again, all hope of compromising it was at an end. I was very anxious to have it settled if I possibly could. I offered to take the responsi bility, as Mr. Simpson would not agree to it.' He asked me to defend him against his ' client. I thought, under the circumstances, that it was a most belienciiirarratigetzient. The engagements I had at Swansea did not enter for one moment into my mind. Ultimately the basia -of a compromise was concluded, and I put my initials to it. Cross-examinedbaYff Mr. Kennedy.—Th e arrange ments case bein g t r i e d on Satur between my clerk and th a t o f th e . Le y nt yeas s Attorney-General, with, I presume, the consent of the judge. I had not the slightest communication before I left town, with the judge about the Swan sea case. I am happy to say the judges are all friends of mine, and I might have written to have had a case fixed for my convenience. I. have read everything in the way of instructions that were handed to me. Here are my notes I made on the brief (pulling a large packet of papers from his pocket.) I have not the least recollection of - what the judge said to me at the time. I met him in the Park a short time ago, and he told me what he said was " I think Cockburn has damaged your female witnesses." (Roars of laughter, which continued some minutes, and in which his lordship and the court joined.) I don't recollect that he said "The verdict's gone," or " saving something from the wreck." I had such a number of cases that one very soon chased another out of my head. I saw the Attorney-General on the Sunday at Stafford. I dined at Lord Hatherton's, but I don't know where I dined on the Saturday; certainly not at Miss Sparrow's, for I havn't the honour of the lady's acquaintance. (Laughter.) Nor with Lady. Wilton. I don't know Lady Wilton. (A laugh.) Nor with Lady Chetwynd. These are all new acquaintances you are introduc ing to me. (A laugh.} I proposed £l,OOO a year as a most advantageous arrangement. I cautiously abstained from mentioning to my client what the judge said to me. Mr. Kennedy—Do you think it was a right thing for the judge to speak to you in that way ? Lord Chelmsford—l don't think I should be called upon to offer an opinion on that question. • This answer was followed by loud aemonstra- . tions of applause in court. The Lord Chief Baron—lf that occurs again I shall order the court to be cleared. - - Lord Chelmsford—l am very sorry, my lord, that any answer of mine should have produced such an interruption. Cross-examination continued—l did not feel , bound to tell my client upon what grounds I based my judgment, but, as the result of that judgment, I strongly recommended Mrs. Swinfen to accept £l,OOO 0, year. She came about ten minutes after I accepted the compromise for her. Mr. Simpson did ask me to wait till she came, but he did not tell me that any compromise must be subject to her ap proval. I never said that Mrs. Swinfen had not a leg to stand upon. I wanted to do the best for her I could . Mr: Justice Cresswell was called—He said—l presided at the trial of Swinfen against Swinfen, at Stafford, in March, 1856. I recollect seeing Sir F. Thesiger. Was sitting on the opposite side of the counsel's table, and when the Court adjourned I beckoned him over and shook hands with him. I asked him if he was going to Lord Hatherton's, as Mr. Baron Bramwell and myself had an invitation. He said he had a consultation in the cause and de clined. I *fake to him about it, and told him that the Attorney-General had damaged two of his most important witnesses. That was all that passed, to my recollection. Cross-examined by Mr. Kennedy—l dined with several persons while at Stafford, but I can't recol lect whether I mentioned the case or not. If any , gentleman had asked me, it is probable I would have answered him. I thought the case was se riously damaged by the examination of the female witnesses. Sir A. Cockburn, Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, was called and examined by Mr. M. Smith, Q.C. He said—l was leading counsel in the case of Swinfen v. Swinfen. I recollect two letters that were read and cross-examinedthe ladies. At the close of the day I had some- conversation with Sir F. Thesiger. He asked me if it could not, be settled. I said that after reading my instruc tions of all the cases I ever had, this was one that ought to be settled. I made no offer, but on the Monday morning Sir F. Thesiger came to me and we discussed the matter, making £l,OOO the basis. The same offer that Sir Frederic made was present in my own mind. I was certainly not prepared to go further, nor would I have gone so far but on ac-, count of the relationship between the parties, and the peculiar way in which Mrs. Swinfen was placed by the death of her husband, old Mr. Swinfan's son. It came out that about the time of the making of the will Mr. Swinfen was so far gone as not to know that it was his son that was dead and not his daughter. That came out in cross-examination. I then felt that our case was safe, for we had very strong evidence behind. I did not read the bill in Chancery. The Lord Chief Baron—Very few people volun teer to read a bill in Chancery. (Roars of laughter.) Mrs. Swinfen never took her eyes for an instant off the learned judges during their examinations, and she joined in the occasional laughter as heartily as the rest. Mr. Alexander, Q.C., who had been one of the rnetdereidn the into, recommen dation former counsel in the cause o f Swinfen v . Swinfen called, wh thewhen aand d proved compromise he e cur v n for an arrangement as the most beneficial course for the plaintiff's interest. concurred e He corroborated the evidence of the noble defendant as to interviews which had taken place between counsel, the plain tiff, and her solicitor, and stated that the manner of the defendant was most kind and courteous to her. As counsel for the l • If p amti he thought the arr angement the very best that ' could have been made for her. Mr. Whitmore and Mr . Gray, who bad also been c ounsel for M•rs• Swinfen in the same cause, gave similar testimony. This closed the cas e for the defendant, whose evi dence was s • • sum me d up Sir Fitzroy Kelly. Mr. Kennedy• - b y then replied on the whole case. The Lord Chief Baron then summed up. He said that as to the second count, that which charged collusion between the defendant and Sir. Cresswell Cresswell, he would direct them that there was no evidence to go to the jury. He would fUrther say that he did not think it was decent to put the second count on the record, and he did not think an apology which the learned counsel for the plaint' stated he would make would be any satisfaction to the learned judge whose character had been assailed, or to public decorum and decency, which had, in his opinion, been outraged by putting on the records of the court such aeharge as this. Next to trial by jury, the independence of the press and of the bar was one of the greatest safeguards to co nstitutional rights, and, therefore, of their social happiness.tl all would lay it down as a principle of 1 taowdischarge the law required a barrister to do was as he could. He his duty towards his client as best he might be, might be utterly wrong or mistaken—_ _ as the counsel for the paintiff had suggested,. under the influence of fear—but if he intended to act was not responßible . The honestly . by his client he was to the • • material points learned judge then alluded in the evidence, and said . that the simple question which the jury had to decide was whether the de fendant had acted fraudulently or improperly, or in the best interests of his client. The jury, without a moment's hesitation., re turned a verdict for defendant on both counts. The announcement was received with loud ap plause, which was suppressed by the edge( 3rs of the court. The counsel for the plaintiff having ti 3,ndered a bill of exceptions to his lordship's ruling., The Court adjourned at a quarter to tu ‘ o'clock. cs, ~ of 1100. ohii reli t pis [art De- rob/ ton- n, S Lin- ton, lust- ver- ear- ett'S NG, 112, ;y os
