RIGA. TO. DUNABURG. CIRCULAR. The Directors, having now completed their negotiations with the Russian Government for the above Railway, have Much pleasure in laying before the Shareholeers the follow ing particulars of their arrangements, together with the prin cipal features of the Imperial Concession of 1853, which was confirmed, with additional adVantages, by his Imperial Ma jesty, on the 26th February, 1817 : A fixed Capital of 10,200,000 silver roubles, or about 1,636,250/. sterling, over which the Company has the abso lute control, and of the expenditure of which they are not re quired to give any account to the Russian Government, The fixed Capital has been changed in consequence of the length of the line having been reduced, and several important modifications having been allowed by the Russian Govern mut . A Concession for a period of 75 years, dating from the open ing of the whole Line, d ur i ng w hi ch the Russian Government hasreseryed no right to purchase the Line. A guarantee, by the Russian Government, of 4i per cent., for interest and sinking fund. A sinking fund of one-eighth per cent. is sufficient to redeem the capital in 75 years. This calculation has been verified, together with all others of importance, by an eminent accountant. The line has been most carefully surveyed by John Hawk shaw, Esq., the engineer-in -chief. It is of very easy construc tion —there being no tunnels, deep cuttings, nor high em bankments—few bridges, and those offoring no engineering diffienities. The whole line is almost upon a level, the maxi- Mum gradient being lin 200, sloping gradually from Diina burg to Riga; thus greatly economising the cost of con veying the produce front the interior. A contract for the, construction of the railway and the supply of the whole of the rolling stock and material, has, with the approval of the engineer-in-chief, been entered into 'frith an eminent English contractor, with ample security for its due performance. The total sum required for the construction of the Railway i nclnding all moneys to be paid to the contractor, the ex treme cost of the land, the interest on calls during construc tion, and the preliminary and all other expenses of manage ment, die., whatsoever, have been carefully estimated at the Sam of 1,343,000/, sterling, thus showing an excess of fixed capital over expenditure of 293,2501., the benefit of which excess will be obtained by the Shareholders by the redemp tion of their shares at par. Thq amount of the guarantee on the fixed capital of 1,636,250/. (after deducting the one-eighth per cent. for the Sinking fund) is 71,5861. per annum, which, upon the above est imate, gives 51 per cent, per annum for interest on the capital (1,343,000/.) actually required, and still leaves a con siderable margin for unforeseen contingencies. BY the statutes the shares will be reduced from their origi nal amount of 1001. t o 201 ., or 125 s il ver ru bl es , 500 f rancs, `d 6 guilders, or 139 thalers of Prussia, each. In conse quence of the reduction in the guaranteed capital, and the Issue of the shares being limited to 81,600, four shares only of 20/. each will be exchanged for each 1001. share. On these shares of 201. only 161. 10s. will be required to Make up the above estimated expenditure of 1,343,0001. ; and the guaranteed interest of 17s. 6d. per share, exclusive of the sinking fund, is equal to 54 per cent, on this amount. The shares will be redeemable at the par of 201. out of the sinking fund by periodical drawings. It is proposed, on the completion of the line, to issue separate coupons in series, available for 10 years each. One of these coupons will re present the guaranteed interest, and the other the dividends on the extra profits of the line, The former will expire on the redemption of the share at par ; but the latter will con tinue in for& during the period for which it may have been issued. A sum for interest during construction has been included by the Russian Government in the fixed capital ; and 5 per cent• per annum will therefore be paid on all calls until the 'Telling of the whole line. The shareholders will enjoy, during the whole period of the concessio n the entire profits, which, upon a most careful c alculation, based upon the existing traffic, show a rate of 15 per cent The Railway will connt with Riga the three capi ls—St. Petersburg, Moscow, and ec Warsaw. The line runs for nearly the whole distance through a district, the cultivation of W hich would bear comparison with that of any other country ; and, i ndependently of the through trade, there can be no doubt that the local traffic, both in goods and passengers, hll form an i mportant and increasing item in the receipts of e line. As an instance of last year's traffic, it would have required` To full t ra i ns of 35 'aggons each ' per day, for the whole t h iPPing season (say six months), to have brought down the flag alone shipped last season from Riga. Nor will the pro jected Libau line injure these prospects ; but, on the con et.,ing as a feeder from Koursk and Orel, it would 1 , 11 .; the produce of these provinces (hitherto shipped at St. Itetersburg) to Diina.berg ; a fair share of which would natu ly go for shipment to the important port of Riga, saving hereby nearly 100 miles of carriage. 'te e Ail Cro all expense. b i s ; ll Private lands required may be taken at the low tariff at nuch the Imperial Government acqnires private land. , All material, such as stone, gravel, Sand, clay, dm., may be taken free from the Crown lands. All r a il s, Rail locomotives, and whatsoever is required for the -w aY. may be imported, duty free, from any country. v Sluce the above estimates and calculations were made, the that have received the highly satisfactory intelligence t h at the Municipality of Riga has placed at the disposal of Company, gratuitously whatever land belonging to the F i 'Y reay be required for this railway. This land iu the town itself, in the suburbs, and on the line of the road, is calcu lated at about 56 versts, or about 37 miles ; and this Valuable a cquisiti on w i ll effect a considerable reduction in the esti- Mated cost of the land. The Directors, in conclusion, congratulate the shareholders 11pon.the exceedingly. favourable terms they have succeeded :I! iiobt aining beyond th ose or i ginally contemplated, and sub '?ln a. summary of the principal advantages gained beyond loose set forth in the original prospectus. 1. The line having been shortened, and many important M odifications allowed, a smaller capital is required, which i ncreases the amount of the dividends. 2. The term of the concession has been extended from 56 to 75 years, dating from the opening of the whole line, dur ing 3 . which time the entire profits belong t o th e C ompany. A sinkiug fund of one-eighth per cent., instead of one half, is now sufficient to redeem the capital. 4. The gratuitous grant of all the land belonging to the municipality of Riga which is requisite for the railway. 5. In consequence of the amount of the shares being re duced, and their number limited by the statutes to 81,600, an additional 10s. per share becomes necessary to be called up to meet the estimates ; but, as the guarante e d i n t erest on the fixed capital i s equa l to 51 per cent, on the estimated capital, the extra p er cen t . on th e 161 . 10 s. i s equivalent to per cent. oh tne additional 10s., which far exceeds the terms originally offered. The official documents and letters, together with the cal eulations and estimates, are open to the inspection of any shareholder, upon his application at the offices of the Com pany, A call, equal to 11. on each 20/. share, will be shortly re %tired., of which due notice will be given.

Since 12 o'clock yesterday no less than 24 bodies have been recovered. Four of them were brought out during Mr. Webster's shift, from 4 to 8 o'clock yesterday even ing ; eight more were sent to bank during the shift of Mr. W. P. Maddison, from 8 to 12 p.m. yesterday ; six at the conclu-ton of Mr. Potter's shift, at 8 o'clock this morning ; and six more during Mr. Brown's shit, which terminated at 12 o'clock. The total number now re covered is 73, and it is expected that many more will be recovered during the next few days. Of the 24 bodies recovered since 12 o'clock yesterday 16 have been identified by peculiarities of dress. Their names are :—E Imund Knowles, of Hemingfield, aged 30 years ; Edward Trainer, of the same place, aged 23 years ; James Pollard, of Wombwell, aged 19 years ; William Illingworth, of Lundhill, aged 32 vers (a deputy, or fire-trier) ; Edward Simmonds, alias Fish man, of Lundhill, aged 11 yews ; Joseph Griwabaw, of Wombwell ; John Hobson, cf Lundhill ; Edward Pol lard, of Wombwell ; James Walker, Richard Wilkin son, John Harper, and Thomas Wilkinson, of Lundhill; Charles Walker, of Wombwell; John Phillips, George Woofinden, and Amos James, of West Melton. The remaining eight are in a very deoomposed and mutilated state, and had no articles of dress upon them by which they aould be identified.' Near the body of Hobson, and in part of the trousers which bad been torn from his body by the violence of the explosion, was found his watch. It is a silver one, and the exterior was completely blackened by lying in aid water and filth, but it was otherwise in a perfect state. The hands pointed to 12.17, from which it is sup posed to have stopp-d at the moment of the explosion. The inner case of a silver watch which had belonged to Joseph Griinshaw was found near his body. It was identified by the initials. A search was made for the re mainder of the watch, but it could not be found. The watch bad no doubt been broken by the explosion. Nearly the whole of the bodies mentioned above have been recovered from different parts of the boardgateß, the falls preventing the banks or workplaces from being penetrated as yet. Those brought out last were taken up on the ends of the boardgates adjacent to the levels on the north side. There are at this time no less than 30 bodies lying io the reception shed, but arrangements have been made for interiiog a number of them this aftErnoon and the remainder will be buried to-morrow. The large falls around the shafts have now been so far removed as to restore the currents to a great extent and render the roads and boardgates quite passable. The miners are working vigorously at the removal of the falls in the north boardgates. The engineers meet again to-morrow (Saturday). ARTS TREASURES EXHIBITION. MANCHESTER, MAY 8. Though the weather is dull, cold, and generally unfa vourable to outdoor amusement, the attendance at the Exhibition still sho .es a daily tendency to increase. On Teursday about 3001. was taken at the doors in half crown admissions, and 300 season tickets were disposed of, of which number about 50 were those at two guineas. From all sources, therefore, the receipts again amounted to within a few pounds of 8001. By the period fixed for the termination of the half-crown days there is little doubt but that nearly two-fifths of the whole outlay will have been secured. Should that be the case the results in a pecuniary point of view will be the most gratifying, as the shilling days, of which there are 100 to come, are expected to prove the main source of revenue. The at tendance yosterby showed no diminution ; on the con trary, as towards the afternoon the day cleared, there was an immense influx of visitors, of whom about one third paid at the doors. As the exact numbers are not ascertained till night, we cannot yet say what the pecu niary results of the day have been, but that they have net fallen short of the day previous is most certain, and we believe, with reg.ird to the sale of season tickets, the proceeds have been even greater. Perhaps among other items we may add that the sale of catalogues continues to average daily about 1,800, which of itself leaves a fair profit to the managers, and is one of the many little per nutrient sources of receipts which tell up considerably at the end of each week. THE CHANCERY-LANE AND FETTER-LANE IMPROVE MENTS.—Yetiterday, by direction of the City Commfs sioners of Sewers, Mes-re. Pullen and Son, auctioneers, di-pesed, by public auction, of the building material- , and fixtures of the last two ancient-looking houses, Nos. 114 and 115, Chancery-lane, near the Law Institu eon. which remained to be pulled down, in order to com plete the improvements which have been so long in progress in this thoroughfare. As soon as the mate rials are removed the site will be occupied by build ings of a first-class character, and set back in a line with the other newly-erected building, in order that the thoroughfare may be widened. ALLEGED CHILD MIIRDER.—An inquest was held on Thursday, at the Board room of Newington Work house, on the body of an infant, which Mary Read, the mother, had taken to a police-office, in a bundle on to Tuesday, where she voluntarily delivred herself up answer a robbery. She s tated that the child was born on board of the Holyhead packet, as she was coming from Ireland, and that it was born dead. Sbe appeared to take great care of the dead infant. The body of t h e child, when examined, bore many marks of violence, and the inquest was adjourned to allow of inquiries in Ireland. TIE GOVERNMENT DOCK AT CARDIFF.—It i 8 stated to be the intention of the Government to form a dock at Cardiff, for the exclusive use of the vessels of the British navy. A surveyor has been engaged in inspecting a portion of ground adjacent to the tidal harbour, for the purpose above-named. It is said that the vast require nesns e t s s of the c steam ar navy, o r t a h n e d a h t i b p e m nt remarkable ofcoal, facilities vp e irj ,duced the authoriti d es fr to o secure a dock there for shipping o f their own stores, rath er th an i ncur th e extra ex ense of transit either by s ea or l an d .

May be had gratis at the British College of Stealth, New-road, London, and of all the llgyeian A gents throughout the world. whom agother maliciously speaks or writes defamatory matter should have civil, or, in extreme cases, a criminal remedy against the defamer. In as far as the defamer is concerned, the essenca of the thing is malice, either ex press or implied; in as far as the defamed. is ,concerned, the gnund of his claim for redrees is the damage his cha- racter h3s sustained, or is necessarily placed in jeopardy of sustaining, by reason of the defamation; and the estimated extent of such damage affords the measure of his corn. pensation. Th sj are the first principles on which rests the whole theory- of civil redreSa by an action for damages in cases of defamation. In order to sus- „ ..............._._ . tain such an action there must be proof of malice in the defamer, damage to the defamed. if either ingredient bs, wAnting, the requisiteproof fails, and the claim fur redress is not made cut. There are, no doubt, numerous cases - , • where the , rnere nature of the defamatory language em cloyed is such as to imply malice in the sp;:aker or writer, so far, at least, as to throw on him the burden of showing that, in point of fact, no malice existed. There are other cases where this presumption is so strong as not to admit of being thus rebutted—cases where the language used is so flagrantly and grossly vituperative as not to be - palliated by any.alleged rectitude of intention. or explained sway by any circumstance of extenuation. Again there are cases and they are by no means unfrequi nt, where the occasion is reasonably and •properly he'd to justify the use of lan guage, whether in writing or spe eking, which is in itself unquestionably defamatory, in as far as it has a tendency to detract from the character of another to his damage. Among the most familiar cases of this class aro those of public comments on the character and conduct of public men. A very considerable degree) of latitude is here most properly allowed, on the clear principle that it is to the public interest that such comments should be freely made, and unless manifestly prompted by personal malice, or other sinister motives, should not be rendered amenable to the penalties of the libel law. Another familiar instance of the - same principle is the protection thrown round the master in giving the character of adelestic servant. This is an occasion in which flee general interest requires that the truth should be told at whatever cost to personal cha racter, and accordingly, unless clear proof be given that truth has been wilfully departed from and malice wan tonly indulged, any statement whether written or verbal regarding the qualification of a servant, however disparag ing, is protected as a privileged communication. All these applications of the law relating to defamation are manifestly based on the one larinciple'from which the whole proceeds, viz., that to constitute such defamatimeas can alone give a ground for claiming civil redress two things must concur—malice in the defamer, consequent damage to the defamed. Now, apply these principles to the state of the law brought before the attention of the house by Lord Campbell. Parliament, let it be supposed, is in session; a grave inquiry is pending on a subject of the highest public importance ; the results of that inquiry —all the steps by which those results are attained—are matters on which the public have the highest interest, and therefore the best right, to be accurately informed. As a necessary part of that inquiry disclosures are mace dis paraging to the conduct of an individual. The report of the inquiry is published by the authority of Parliament; the disparaged individual brings his action against the printer; and as long as " Stockdale v. Hansard " is law, in that action be must succeed, for the privilege now en joyed by reports of proceedings in courts of justice is not enjoyed by reports of proceedings in Parliament. Take, again, the case which arose the other day. Suppose the publication by a public journal of the report of proceedings at a public meeting which is alleged by a plaintiff, and found by ajury, to contain statements disparaging to his personal character. Hero, again, it is now conclusively settled, by the case of " Davison v. Duncan," that the plaintiff must retain the benefit of his verdict. It is no defence for the proprietor of the journal that the meeting was public—that the subject discussed was one of general interest—that the report was truthful and trustworthy. We suppose there is no rational person in these realms who will not agree with Lord Campbell that this state of things is eminently absurd and unsatisfactory. On 'princi ple, there is no reason whatever for extending the privi leges of immunity to the reports of the law courts which does not equally apply to the reports of proceedings in Parliament and all bona fide public meetings—meetings called, not only colourably but really for the discussion of subjects possessing other than a mere personal interest. In fact, so utterly does all valid ground of distinction fail in favour of conferring the privilege excluively. on the law courts, that wears driven upon the conclusion that judges of the superior courts, by whom this portion of our libel law was in fact made, established the rule without any reference to principle at all, solely for the protection of the tribunals in which they themselves presided. Lord Campbell suggests that there may be a difficulty in defin ine b the kind of public meetings to w hi ch the p rivile g e should be extended. But surely the difficulty would not be insurmountable. A fair and truthful report of any public meeting, bona fide called for the purpose of discuss ing matters of other than mere personal interest, ought cer tainly to be protected from the penalties of the libel law. There is no malice in the reporter, if the report be correct and truthful. If there be malice in the speaker, the re. medy ought to be against him ; and as to the supposed de triment to the individual, in so far as it arises from the report, the journal in which the report has appeared is equally open, and in the present state of the law is bound to give admission, to the contradiction. There was one matter thrown out for consideration by Lord Campbell which is deserving, we think, of very great attention. His lor.lship's suggestion was, that wherever in in action for libel against a journal in consequence of a report of a proceeding at a public meeting, it could be made out that tho report was a fair one, and that no real damage had been sustained by the plaintiff, the jury might be entitled to give a verdict for the defendant. This would, no doubt, be a very small rule to establish; it is, in fact, merely the application of the same principles to newspaper reports of the proceedings of publio meetings which we have already stated to be applicable to all cases of oral or written slander in the case of private individuals. If the report is a fair one, there is no malice in the journalist ; if the character of the plaintiff has not been injured by the report, there is no damage. The two elements necessary for giving a claim of redress on the ground of defamation when a private individual is the defamer are both want ing in such a case ; and there is really no reason why there should be one law for the journalist, especially when he merely acts as a reporter, and another law for every other class of the community. We trust that the coramittee to be appointed ou Lord Campboll'a motion may speedily pre pare the way for a thorough amondment and reconstruc tion of the law of libel as it affects the reports of proceed ings in Parliament and public meetings- ROYAL COMMISSION-MEDICAL DE PARTMENT 01?

(Signed) PANMURE. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, MAY 8. The cotton-market has been eteadier this week, but trade has been exleedingly dull in cloth, and sellers have found it difficult to maintain the prices of.last week; In some instances further. concessions have had to be made, and, considering that the, rates demanded were unremu• nerative, this is reasonably enough a• matter frr great dissatisfaction among manufacturers. For T-olothe, long-cloths, and heavy domestics there was little.in quiry, and the sales effected have been mostly of very limited extent. In printing cloth and shirtings there has also been a limited business, and the tendency of priceii is in favour of buyers. In yarns the purchases hare mostly been for immediate requirements, but, there has been rather more inquiry yesier,lay and this morning, with a firmer feeling in prices, though hitherto this has not led to much actual business. Of the linen trade Messrs. Richardson, Lee, and Co. say in their monthly report that " the demand has been smaller than in the earlier months of the year ; but, con sidering interferences with regular trade caused by the unsettled state of monetary affairs and by the election, the amount transacted has been considerable. As respects price, the tendency is in favour of the buyer of coarser kinds, while the finer sorts are held for full quotations, as stocks are small. The advanced prices for Leeds yarns established during March are maintained, but a further expected onecannot at present be realised, although the quantity of yarns being sent to the continent is very large. Future prices will depend much on the opera tions of buyers for the United States' fall trade, which are likely to be considerable." BRITISH AND FOREIGN SCHOOL SOCIETY.

Lord Campbell has promptly fulfilled his promise of bringing the Law of Libel again before the attention of Parliament. As we are entirely convinced of his lord ship's impartiality, and as we are ourselves conscious of our own desire to see this subject considered, not in the assumed interests of journalism alone, but on behalf of the public at large, we should rejoice at nothing more sincerely than to find ourselves coinciding with Lord Campbell in his estimate of the question. We hope, indeed, and believe that this may ultimately prove to be the case, for the opinions which his lordship has ex pressed admit of a very near a:proxincation to the immu nities with which journalism could afford to be content. Our argument is, that the practice of reporting the speeches and proceedings of public meetings, being notoriously recognised in fact, and con- feesedly beneficial in operation, should not carry with it, when faithfully, duly, and properlyexercised, any liability arising from the matter reported. We are content that the character of the meeting and the general colour of the report should be open to strict scrutiny. If the meeting could be pronounced not really a public one ; if the pro ceadiugs were not intended to be reported ; if the report was affected in any manner by private instead of public interests ; or if, in short, any motive whatever, apart from the performance of professional duty, could be shown to have operated in producing or qualifying the publica tion, we are content that professional privilege should no longer be pleadable, and that the consequences should fall on the head of the offender. We take our stand upon the publicity of the meeting, and the bona fide character of the reporc, fairly appreciated. If these points cannot be substantiated let the responsibility rest with the newspaper ; but if they can, let the speaker, and not the newspaper be accountable for what is said. A man who speaks in public now-a-days dictates to a reporter. The publication of his speech is es muchhis own act, as its delivery. He addresses himself to the whole country as completely and as deliberately as if be took his speech to a printer and sent it out as a pamphlet, with his name on the titlepage. He knows that reporters are pre sent for the express purpose of committing his speech to peper, and sending it to press for circulation. He sees them at their work, and not only does he accept the condi tion with all its consequences, but in many instances his speech is addressed more to these functionaries than to any part of his audience. We admit all the difference between speaking slander and printing it; between the possible smallness of the injury in the former case and its possible magnitude in the latter; between the freedom which may be claimed for private conversation and the restrictions which ought to attend a public harangue. What we say is that the whole of this difference, be it what it may, is chargeable to the speaker himself, and to no others. He, anti h 3 alone, in every sense of the word, is the utterer. The reporter represents nothing but a speak ing -trumpet, through which, by the aids of science, a single voice can be made to echo over the entire kingdom. And now what harm, we ask, would be likely to accrue to society or to any class or institution of society if these principles were recognised ? We have already said that we are willing to have the subject considered independently of any interests which might bo supposed peculiar to the Press itself. We are ready to appeal to the common advan tage—to the public good, and from this point of view we ask to be shown any mischief that can arise from the pro tection of reporters honestly engaged. Would speakers be more careful in e speaking ? That, certainly, could be no disadvantage. The question concerns offence given by words injurious to public order or private reputation, and the argument is, that this offence becomes greater when the words are printed. But an offence it is in either case, and if, therefore, the chance of committing the greater offence' should induce the speaker to avoid even the less, it would clearly be so much the bettor for all. But Lord Campbell appears to think that these privileges of reporting might lead to wrongs without remedie'. If the publication of seditious or libellous matter is visitable on a journal, the offending parties are always to be reached by prosecution, whereas the original utterer of the matter might take him self out of the way while his words were circulated, and the evil wrought, with entire impunity. His lordship has even suggested that a public meeting might be got up for an occasion, that a man might utter his sedition or his slander, put it in course of publication, and then fly the country, while the law was left at fehlt and powerless. But now, to take this extreme case of a joint offenceby some des perate revolutionist and some equally desperate print, what would b 3 the probable results of such an operation ? Why, by Lord Campbell's own assumption, the country would be rid of a mischief-maker on remarkably easy terms. Observe, that as even the print supposed to be at his ser vice is obliged to publish his name and fix him with the responsibility of the speech, he is at once identified as the offender. His words are brought home to him without the troublesome instrumentality of a • Government shorthand writer, such as used to be employed, and he must either remain to abide the consequences, or rid society of his pre sence and agitation once and for all. What more could be dono if he had been caught and convicted ? Let us be permitted, however, to add one word from our own point of view. Assuming still this extreme case sup posed by Lord Campbell, what would be the probable cha racter of a journal which should lend itself to this style of reporting—for, of course, if a meeting is to be "got up" in the manner imagined, the conductors of a journal could hbrdly be in ignorance of the circumstance? And, if the character of a journal is pot worth much,'what is its influ ence worth ? In other words, what would be its powers of mischief, or the real harm of the publication at all? It cannot be too constantly recollected in these discussions that' when a journal offends against the good sense and good feeling of the country it exposes itself to punishment far more condign and more summary than could be admi nistered by any court of law. Its very existence is at stake, for a journal is the mere creature of circulation, and circnlation is the expression of public approval. There is no obligation upon a newspaper to consider every meeting a public meeting which so entitles itself, or to report every speech which a speaker wishes to be reported. If the speaker, the subject, and the occasion do indeed possess pub is importance, then of course the proceedings deserve publicity, and under such conditions publicity would pro bably do far less harm than suppression ; but in ordinary cases the conductors of a journal can exercise their own discretion, and it is by such discretion, among other quali ies, that a journal is judged. We venture to say that the end of any such proceedings as Lord Campbell has ima gined would be the speedy nullification of the speaker and newspaper together. To what conclusion, then, must we come . ? At present reports are protected in the cases of Courts of Law, and Lord Campbell avows his very honourable desire to extend the priyilege to Parliamentary reports also. He has fur ther suggested that the ,protection might reach, perhaps, to the reports of Convocation, to those of county meetings, and of town council meetings in boroughs ; so that the ground for drawing the line would constantly recede--a difficulty which we imagine his lordship must have felt as be proceeded; for, at last., though he observed that "it would be unsafe to extend the privilege without some limi tation," he said that it "might be given to reports which were for the public good, leaving that point for a jury to decide." Now, with this last condition, construed, as we have no doubt it is meant to be, in a liberal sense, we are disposed to close. It is putting a good deal in a jury's hands, but by the honest opinion of our countrymen we should te prepared to abide We are willing that a jour nal should be put upon its defence for any charge of malice or imputation of any motive not included in fair profes sional obligation ; but when it can be shown that this duty has not been exceeded, we ask to be relieved at once and altogether from liabilities which in justice can only attach to others. (From the Daily News.) Lord Campbell has renewed his motion for a Select Com mittee on the LaW of Libel, especially as it affects the pub lication of the reports of proceedings at public meetings. It is high time that the law in question should be thoroughly sifted. The real principle on which is based ' the whole law of libel is simply this—that every man of CANCER HOSPITAL, London and West Brompton.—Secretary's °Mee, 167.

PER 7:-Ctlt-r -• - STEAM SIiTTP(..tg2INVINC - de, • (From the According to the fable, Chanticleisqdl — the-naai s h.. such a life of it by calling them ou fhb beS O dawn that they put their heads tigether arid silenced him for good. The next morning they slept long enough, but their mistress, rising late and finding, them all abed, gave them nearly as much as they had given poor Chanticleer. We have only to suppose her Majesty's domestics re ducing the Press to silence, and we may forum tl a inevitable result. Instead of being kept to their duty they begin to enjoy repose. A sweet lethargy creeps on their senses, and their 'eyelids yield to forgetfulness. A Military appointment has to be made. A friendly tongue, in persuasive accent'', :recommends a man whi give no trouble. The Minister, under a soft illusion Via - , 6ne soldier s as good as another, so as he be a gentleman, yields to his charmer, and sends a respectable regiment d officer oft the errand of. a Clive or a Napier. A war, fertde in disastrous experiences, is just over, and complacency reigns in our arsenals and dock yards. On a new emergency ships are wanted ; routine resumes it; easy sway, and as last. as ship after ship leaves our ports, 'freighted with4hole regiments, the old story of " accidents" is renewer'. - Scarce a day passes which does not bring tidings of ships leaking, putting back, or putting in, with many feet of water, requiring repaita to hull, or machinery, or rigging, and losing days of precious time. They have not started in a hurry ; for, after all our supposed experience, and imprbvernent, and preparations, we buckle on our armour for this new enterprise (mita as slowly as if we had never proved it 13-fore. Well, suppose the conspiracy succe , sful, and our tongues tied. Suppose no journal courageous enough to insert even letters, taking the Ministe rial view that they are the complaints of poor whinning, ignorant creaiures, what would be the infallible result ? The fable warns us. Failures of all sorts would be slurred over. Should truth reach the War Department or the Admiralty, a friendly pen would never be wanting to anticipate " exag get ation," and blunt the edge, of ill news. Disaster after disaster ' neglect after neglect, would occur and be forgotten, till the nation, opening its eyes some day to the gener a l bankruptcy of achieve ment, would reason roughly, but truly enough, that something must be wrong, and that the only way was to get rid of the present nien and try ethers —new Generals and Admiral , , new Ministers, a new system, a new Parliament, a new con-tittrtion —any novelty in preference to a tenour of ill suc cess. We are supposed to be a sort of wreckers, reap ing our harvest from disaster and waiting upon ill fortune. We are charged even with setting down to the credit of departments that average of casualty certain to all people and a condition of human life. But is it so'? Do Cunard's steamers regularly return to port half wa erlogged, or alternately run for protection or refit into some friendly port af.er a few days' sailing ? Is the Bay of Bay so much worse than the rest of the Atlantic, and how do packet-ships and merchantmen meet what we are told is the usual result of a week's rough weather on new rigging ? Thousands of ships cross the Atlantic every year, often in the very roughest weather, yet nature has provided no Co runna or Vigo between Cape Clear and Boston. The piston of the huge engine of a Cunard or a Collins steamer Dever ceases its motion from the moment it rises at the moorings in the Mersey to the moment when the steam is blown off at New York. Yet it is a venial affair that the Transit, with 600 or 700 men on board, should drift upon her own anchor and put back to Portsmouth in a sinking state. Then, she does not roll, and the people who write letters to say that she does aro land-lubbers, suffering the usual depression of spirits after a short sea voyage. It appears, in deed, on Sir Charles Wood's own figures, that the Transit, while 100 ft longer than the Satellite, with which it is compared, is only 14 inches broader in the beam. She is, then, at least likely to roll ; and, though the commander, master, and carpen ter, in the reports, declared that she rolls "easy," we are not surprised at the qualification, that though easy, she rolls " deep ;" deep enough, no doubt, for the soldiers ou board. But every one knows ttiat the effect of deep rolling on a ship origi nally constructed for lightness would be to open the seams and disclose any weakness of timbers. Sir Charles Wood states what we are ready to believe,—that the masts and sails of this vessel are lighter than those intended by its builders. But, as the poop has , heen increased, and the fire p ar t o f the vessel ieSsaseed over, to afford greater accommo dation to the ship's company, the result must be a balance of conflicting alterations ; and, if we have no formula for ascertaining which way the difference lies, we are not so very unreasonable in taking the evidence of the sick soldiers that in bad weather the ship rolls like a tub, lets in water at every seam, and does not leave a hammock dry. Sir Charles \,\rood only offers conflicting considerations, whereas their testimony is decided and clear, and even mili tary officers know whether a hammock is wet or dry as well as Sir Charles Wood. The case of the sister ship, the Urgent, which so sadly belies its name, we are content to leave to the letter of the gentleman quoted by Sir Charles, who anticipate , " exaggerated accounts." It is be yond our depth to dive into the mystery of " leaden joints" and " washers," "blowing-off pipes" and "Kingston valves ;" nor can we see why these or anything else need be " blown out" or "blown off" by any slieht cause, or why the pipe should have been divided by which the wat r from the boilers was driven into the sea. A pipe with this important office ought not to be at the mercy of ac cident ; nos ought a large ship with 800 men on board, and sally boats for 300, to be at the mercy of any small substance, such as a bit of wood or coal, that might choose to insinuate itself " through the Kingstons," and temporarily prevent their closing after blowing off. We don't hear of these things on board the Transatlantic packet steamers, for the simple reason that if one of them were found with the water nearly up to the engine fires, and no ac count to be given but a speculation on the possi bility of a bit of wood or coal having pas.ed, as they say, the wrong way down the throat, the suspicious and selfish public would immediately make a note of the ship liable to these mysterious casualties, and quietly abstain from taking their passage by it. The sequel shows, too, that the public would have been perfectly right. The commanding officer of the Urgent sends these ingenious specu ations from Corunna, and wishes his chefs to inf r that the trivial nature of the accident suggested no fear as to the future. The ship was, however, obliged in a few dat s to put into Madeira, on leaving which she again broke her engine gear. After one more attempt at steaming she broke it a third tine, and finally had to finish her voyage to Barba foes under sail, and with a leak at her stern which it required the continual work of 30 men to keep down. Which, then, was justified by the result—the Cap tain's ingenious explanations, or the "exaugeratsd accounts" they were intended to anticipate ? Sir Charles Wood very civilly repeats one of his usual expressions about " the imagination of the writers in the newspapers," which he appears to think the inexhaustible source out of which all the casualties of his department arise. Yet when we have ventured to disregard the gay, airy tone, in which Sir Charles discusses these matters, and the " amusement " which he professes to de rive from these " attacks," we cannot does h help e refs Whi n —what does lie really deny ? Wh ie lu n s t i o o n n ! i) t the fa o n i c m y for l ea. k s a e, eg l f , r . s a e i h n t t fi t z , ll putt s i a n i g lin in g: that gia the ten Urgent,? l) oe e c x a i l ro. it an ; atn y, in s breaking, b re a down,in g down, and so at, last arriving at Bar other hand, was not t h e com lmbeaaadk:ideni:e7. pumping, On the other g officer's r story of the little b t of wood or coal pure imagination ? Was it a baseless fabric of fancy in the soldiers on board the Transit that th e y were all wet to the skin' and that not a ham mock was dry? Sir Charle, with great pomp, an nounces a contradiction, and then tells a story which is no contradiction at all, or at the most some ingenious theory of a nature to elude every possi ble test. We beg to say, once for all, that we are prepared for acci4ents ; we are ready to excuse them ; and we expect an average quantity—some times an excess. But we do not call it an "acci dent" that when peace was only proclaimed a year ago, and all our ships from that date have been coming into harbour with all their defects fully known, after the lapse of eight or nine months, any explanation, any excuse, any apology should be found necessary for the ships employed in convey ing her Majesty's troops to a new scene of war. NEW FORM OF ACTION FOR BREACII Or psexISL— ASSAULT BY A LADY.—Toe Northern Daily Erprcss states that, at Darlington, on Monday, Mils 4—, a lady residing in Harewood-grove, was charged with assaulting Mr. B—, a solicitor, her next door neighbour. Mr. B. stated that on meeting him the other day , in the street. she "spat in his face and over his dress, and mid. him a liar and a coward, that she followed him for some di- - tance, assailing him all the while. Miss A did not deny the charge, bu t said in justification, " He cane to my house for ten years, and made me an offer, and has said to Mr. R—, the . grocer, that it wa s on ly for a pas time." Mr. B— having denied this statement, Miss A— said "I never t old a lie in my life, and you are a liar and a coward." She also charged Mr. B. with having thrust a «disgusting and blackguard letter" under her door. This also Mr. B— denied. Miss A— then said, "I know I took the law into my own hands, and I don't care for its being known to all the people that I spat at that liar and coward, and I wanted to get a stick to thrash him with, and, failing in that, I took the course ',did." She was fined 31. and costs.
