Considering, however, the multifarious avocations of the public journalist, and the various pressingde mends upon the space at his disposal, it cannot be Sup.: posed that he can give insertion to everything that has transpired; for, as Lord Cammeen justly re masked in a . recent trial, "if that condition were imposed, the liberty of publishing reports of proceed ings in courts would be merely illusory, and wholly useless, because it is not possible that everything that takes place on any trial should be put into print." The, broadest sheet sanctioned by the _ExcheqUer • wonld, in such case, be incapable of Con taining one-tenth of the matter that shoUld be ;in cluded. , The true'criteeion, therefore, by which any publicatign tested is, whether it is a fair report, written tin impartial spirit, without preju dice or malice, :and calculated to. convey an accurate . ' imPreseieip of what has really taken. ;place. the '. . olden time, however,: there .. v4ere so: e many traps laid, that almost any Melee' vOlent and , vindictive_ . person could occaion the greatest annoyance,. vexation, and expense to any publication in which' hie, 'name wait mentioned in terms othei`than those of adulation, and many specu lative attorneys Were.looking out for opportunitiee of. bringiag actions, convinced that a farthing damakes -Wronld;caYrY•costs'. : Although, that fornaideble state of affairs, when the definitien seam time since given in a court of justice- of the freedom of the press, " that a man might publish Sehat''he Ilik@tl, but lie should be pu- nish4 fot:it'afterw`ar4s," ,Might he . lconsidered acme rate, is happily removed, thanks to the exertione of that distinguished stidge Who • now ably presides in the highe?t seit s erthe'higheit'codit4"common there are many 'dfthcaltiee that stilt obstruct the pith .of the journalist to which, we would respectfully di rect - the attention of Lord CAMPBELL, and which "=.tirgently.require fo r be revised. The' great Object to be kept- -in view to accord the : fullest .liberty, withoutPeimitting that liberty to degenerate isto licentiousness. I Anything that could be traced 'to an improger . motive, where tt -could be shown that "malice" was an ingredient, should be treated with Tthe utmost severity ; hut if that was Wanting, and that it should appear that everything on the 'part of the defend'antwite straightforward, and that he Was only actuated by an 'honest desire to perform his Fluty to the public fairly and dispassionately, lhe should' be profeCtea from every annoya nce . Two_ casca tried,l,l3l; we'.k, viz., Wieles v. Laweoie and WEAV•bIi •13' ShfiTtli . in • which the results were tirecisely similar—one fatthing damages being gien in each instance-afford the strongest illustrations of the grievanees above referred to. In each case the established limits were, if at all, only exceeded to the 'inost-trivial extent' the first, .which was an ac tion , against the Times, if the word " suspicion " had been inserted, there must have been a verdict -for the 'defendier, ' bat that trifling omission; whiehe in r teuth . could have little effect one . way or . the.. other, eso far as the plaintiff was' concerned, 'had- the effect of changing' the decision, and ma dug it_appear that th,e complainant had been really - aggrieved, iiithough an independent jury as sessed the amount of that injury at the smallest coin of the realtn. The matter was, hoWever; in that particular instance, of but little importance. The "farthing" - ' was practically -the only point in -.dispute; for had the defendant been' enabled to have established the clearsist anerhost'satisfietc!tly justification he would Still have borne his own costs—the plaintiff having been admitted to sue in forma pauperia, it could not, be-Supposed that he could satisfy these costs, and it would afford but little satisfaction to the defendant to cast the " pauper" into gaol. This, then, is one' instance of the much vaunted liberty of the press, where the publisher must, under the most favourable circumstances, be mulcted in a very heavy sum, that would, if inflicted as a fine; be considered as a sufficient expiation for a very serious offence. In the other case of WEAVER v. SMITH, another • morning contemporary, the Daily News was concerned, The alleged libel consisted of a report of certain pro ceedings which - had taken place in the Thames Police court, and which, it was contended, _was to a certain extent garbled. •The • reporter by whom it• • had been written was produced for the defence; and proved the f general aCcuracy . , of the account, and even the ,warrant officer of the police court, who was produced on the part of the plaintiff, deposed that " the" report was fair and Accurate,. and that the. terms in : which the, statements of the witnesses . were reported - -were very moderate ;" . and yet,- • not*ithstanding a' sound • and constitutional • charge, Worthy; of pie. distinguished.

PASSY on the extraordinary Predit 'of 3;218,501f., for the surplus expenses resulting from keeping up on a war footing the. French troops in Italy, has been-distributed to the Assembly. The Ministers of War and Foreign Affairs had attended the Committee to' give explanations, and in reply to questions put to them, stated that the troops had already been "coliaiderably'reduCed, and that, chiring 1851, they would not exceed 10,000 men and 1,500 horses. lf, they added, they were to be reduced be low, that number they would not be sufficient for the services required, or represent France with pro per dignity. With regard to the recall of the troops from Italy, the Ministers replied that it would be impossible to fix an exact period when it could be done. The state of affairs in Italy had improved, and was continuing to do so; but all the causes which had led to the occupation had not yet disappeared, and it was poisible that they might' not do so before the end of 1851. The Committee coincided with the views of the Ministers on the . subject, and decided on proposing ,the pure and, simple adoption of the Bill. The report, after summing up the arguments,. . which had been brought forward in support of the ,ocoupation of Rome. alludes as follows to the con• siderations of the Ministers with regard to the con tinuance of the occupation : 7 - • "Th haie 'allowed Anstria .

The 6 weeks average price is 373. 94. ' The Colonial Markets are exceedingly )ieavy on account of the continuanCe of the political crisis, and to-day there is but one public sale of any moment, viz.; of Coffee: In other de partments of business the operation of the same causes is also exceedingly injurious. What the packet service of this kingdom costs the public is indirectly felt, but not perhaps generally known. ; The mercari-' tile community have, however, a keener appreciation of the matter, for they consider that more Might be got for the money, and defectiveas are the arrangements in connexionwith the era 'ployrnent of ber Maje'sty's ships of war.and the steamers Of the Honourable East Company, there is good reason to con clude that even the contract service might be greatly im proved, without the expenditure of a farthing beyond the amount atiresent _paid, viz., 727,_42_51. At least su c h i s th e !Mtn required for the service of the year 1851-2, being an increase of 'nearly 100,KO1. over the last vote for . the financial year Ikso-1. It appears that the items of increase are 25,0001. for the conveyance of mails by steam vessels to and from Holyhead and Kingstown. This service has been badly performed, it is said, by the Government vessels, and we presume the change is desirable. For the service between Callao and Valparaiso 5,0001. additional are charged, and 30,7 01. are added for the new route to the Cape ;of Good Hope. The expenses of the Queen's vessels employed in the packet service are reduced this year from _134,946/. to 82,0711., so that the total vote this year will be 809,496/., against 764,2361. last year. The Amsterdam Stock Market on the 25th inst. states that no chadgi of importance had occurred in Public Secu rities, home or foreign. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were 57 11-16. ' The Banker's Magazine for the ensuing month sums up the condition of the Money Market, for the month now drawing to a cloSe, in the following.terms;-- • "We have to report; on the whole, a steady and quiet month in the Stuck and Money. market. The Ministerial crisis, which commenced on Friday, the 21St Feb., inst., has, of course, materially disturbed the previous state of things. In France, the state of parties appears to be much more set tled ; and the aspect of foreign politics generally is favour able. Our own foreign exchanges are gradually recovering themselves, and, throughout the month, the supply of capital 'has been quite equal to the 'ordinary requirements of the market. On each court day (Thursday) at the Bank of England, ,there have been strong rumours on the Stock Exchange of the intention of the di iectiiis to again raise the rate, of interest, but so. far these statements have not been fulfilled. " The Bank have made no further alteration in their rate of discount, which therefore, at 8. per cent. per annum ; and the figures in the returna certainly indi cate. that during the month the action of the public upon the Bank has been very feeble; for we find that the private securities have on the whole diminished t - and that the bullio n has , increased. , eased. " Out, of , doors, the rate of disCotint is about 3 per cent. et inllniu fur. good , mei:eantile but with a shyness of long paw.. The brokers give 214, ~to, 2% for money at call, and,,in some,quarters, an anticipa-tioniprevails that the notes will be higher before the April dividendsi "In the Railway Share Market, there has been a large business and good prices. The half-yearly meetings gene rally pass of well, and, on the whole, the prospects of railway property are favourable." The Bank of England intends to grant loans upon Stock lend Eichequer-bills, at the rate oi 2} per cent. per annum, until April 15. ThQ Stock Market is as dull as for some days past, and until some more definitive conclusion can be arrived at, at to the future Ministry, no particular animation is to be looked for. One thing is certain, viz., that any attempt to revive the agitation for protection will be exceedingly injurious to the status of the Funds. Consols have been 96% to 1 4 for Transfer, and 96 1 , 4 i to for Account. Exchequer bills have been quoted 465. to 50s. premium, andlndian Bonds Ms. to 655. premium. • The arrangements for to-morrow's settlement in the Foreign Market have been in progress. Mexican have varied from 334 to 33X. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. have been quoted 82%. Portuguese Four per Cents. are 33 1 % Brazilian Old Bonds have been quoted 92. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 58%. Railway Shares have been lower this morning, rather one rous rates of ".continuation" being demanded for carrying over, but at present the market is looking isp again, and the quotations of the Great Western and other leading shares are above the rates given in the 'vfficiallist below, say by abltit 105. . • • The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under 1851.
