THE PRESS.

An adjourned meeting of creditors of Priscilla }time,
trading aa Hime and Son, held at the Manchester
County Court, before Mr. Registrar Cooper. Mr.
Sampson (Pemberton, Sampson, and James), Mr.
Layton, and Mr. Etty appeared on behalf of various
reditora After the meeting had lasted several hours,
Mr. Etty objected to the presence of reporters, con-
tending that the proceedings of a meeting of creditors
were not of • public character. The Registrar
concurred with Mr. Etty, and requested the reporters
to withdraw. Mr. Summon and Mr. Layton objected
to the Itegixtrar's ruling, whereupon all the parties
went before the deputy-judo, Mr. Bfackonochie.
The question was argued before his Honour at
considerable length.—Mr. Sampson and Mr. Layton
contended that a meeting of creditors before the
Registrar was • proceeding of a public curt, that the
meeting was MOT* or lees open to the public court, and
that therefore, in the public interest, the preen had aright
to be present.—The deputy.judge said It was quite true
that these meetings were to a certain extent matters
in a public court; but he considered that these pre-
liminary inquiries were not of a public character in
the sense in which they understood the acte of a court
of justice to be public. They were of a gosiii.private
character. They were only private to this extent
that unless there were some menial reasons to the
contrary anyone shout! attend who wished to do so.
At these inquiries, matters were brought out touching
very closely the highest interests of men; and it might
very often happen that the proceedings should not at
once be made public. ite thought. therefore, the
Registrar had a power vested in him of requiring if he
thought proper that the proceedings should not be
made public. He considered that the registrar had
exercised this power wisely in the present cams —The
reporters then withdrew, their notes being impounded
by the court.

MAN SHOT IN TIIE lIARVKST FIELD.

.
A aborkimr occurrence tat( placeonlPrelayaf tentrein in •
field in Wyke parish, near the Chickerel border and in the
occupation of Mr. Churchill. Richard W. Clark and
another were mowing wheat, young Churchill and others
binding. A young man named fres early in the day
brought a gun into the field, and this was several tittles
fired at the spar:owe. About half-past four Churchill
again Bred, and brought the gun to a " stitch" of wheat,
round which the men were gathering for " nanunet."
Cliurchill and Legg re-leaded, Legg putting in the shot.
and Legg seems then to have Mooned in the act of leaning
the weapon against the Mitch, the cap being on the
nipple, and the hammer down. "Somehow," it exploded,
the charge of shot went through • sheaf of wheat • few
inahe• shove the band, and struck Clerk, who wee on the
other side, out of sight of Legg. The unfortunate man
staggered round, and partly fell, lout was caught and
supported. Churchill started for a doctor. Legg helped
what he could with Clark, and the latter was got into a
cart to be taken home. Before he could get there,
Churchill had fetched Dr. Lush from Weymouth. and
Mr. Powne, from Chard, came with him. Brandy was
given to Clark laths cart ; but he died before he reached
home. He leaves a wife and eight or nine children. Mr.
R. B. Rasping and Mr. John Reunion started once a
submtiptlmt for the poor widow.—We shall report the
inquest fully in the rekgrdlel.

SCENE AT AN ITALIAN COURT-
MARTIAL.

The Dail y News correspondent in Rome writes
The reader must accompany me to Genoa, to the
military tribunal there. On the bench of the accused
nits a private soldier, Paolini by name, just let out of
solitary confinement in the prison ~f Savona. The
first use, it seem', to which he put his freedom, was
to incur • reprimand from the corporal, and to hurl a
volley of insulting epithets at him and the superior
officers. Among the witnesses for the defence is one
Create Dfariani, another gaol-bird Net at liberty from
Savona. He, too, is a private soldier, 25 years of age;
while • " fiscal" witness, or witnesses for the prosecu-
tion, is Corporal Cazzanigs, employed under the
governor of the prison—the !Woe corporal, in fact,
whom the accused had insulted. The Court had just
withdrawn to hold • consultation when Corporal
("smudge happened to walk past the witness blariani.
This fellow, armed with an awl which he had contrived
to conceal about hi a person, flung himself on the
corporal and dealt him three wounds in rapid
succession. Soldiers, subalterns, and officers at once
surrounded the infuriated assailant and dragged him
to the guard-room, when he was pinioned. Jleanwile,
the wound, he had inflicted on the corporal were found
t, be serious, particularly one between the 10th and
11th riba The weapon with which they were dealt
was searched for on the prisoner, but without success,
till it was found sticking under • bench in the guard-
room where he was secured. During all this tumult
the accused Paoli'sl had gradually I' idled up to the
judges' bench. One of these, • captain, seeing him no
near, and suspecting him of some sinister purpose, told
him to undo his clothes and show he had no weamos
concealed about him. None was found, and the captain
bade him take ~11 his shoes. The fellow demurred.
At this point the excitement and confusion became
indsser.bable. The public, who were only adding to
the tumult, were made to withdraw, and the Court
proceeded at once to try the witness Marian', who
had wounded the corporal. The Public Prosecutor
pleaded for capital punishment. The advocate Erne
to Valle, having undertaken Mariani'A defence, asked
in vain for • postponement of the trial, urging that
the fellow bad acted under maniacal impulse, and was
in fact irresponsible. The Court found for the Public
Proseutor, holding that the act had been pretneditated,
and condemned Create Mariani to be shot in the back.
As foe Peolini, the Public Prosecutor, considering the
crime for which he had been brought before the
tribunal, and the blow he had dealt one of the prodd-
ing judges, demanded the penalty of death in his case
also. Strange to say, the Court found in him, what
It had failed to find in Mariani, a state of morbid
excitement which rendered him irresponsible for the
momext. It condemned him accordingly to 20 years'
solitary confinement for the offence with which he was
charged. and five years' solitary confinement for the
assault on the captain-25 ran in all.

LORD DARTMOUTH AND MR. ARCH.

Lord Dartmouth, in • controversy with "the poor
uneducated agricultural labourer." as Mr. Arch styles
himself, has come off second best. Lord Dartmouth
recently Assorted that the "paid agitator," threatened
a revolution if the farmers need more machinery, and
Mr. Arch, denying the statement, challenged the peer
ti proof. Lord Dartmouth, driven in a corner, has
replied that he haa • " dfininct recolle-tion" that Mr.
Arch said it would be "dangerous" for the farmers to
use more machinery. The two terms are not exactly
conve,tible ; but Lord Dartmouth goes on to admit
that • few days later Mr. Arch made a declaration in
the sense precisely contrary. After that Lord Dart-
mouth talks about the wickedness of those who
"slander and vilify" good men, as if it is not some-
thing very like vilification to imply that an orator who
used the word "dangerous' meant to provoke a
revolution; and as, if not slanderous, it was not
simply scandalous to bring against a man upon mere
recollection sentsnces which pnthab'y were never
uttered, and which, if they were uttered, were in the
" distinct recollection" of Lord Dartmouth retracted
a few days later. Lord Dartmouth has as shady an
idea of political controversy.. Lord Beaconsfield, who
attributes other people's words to Mr. Gladstone.

IMPORTANT DECISITT,. AS TO DILUTED

SPIIUTS.

At the Barrow Magis— trates' Court two publicans
were charged—John Bell with selling win 446 under
prof, and James Hill with selling gin at 41 under
proof, and rum at 38 under proof. It wanurged for
the defence that a notice at dad that all spirituous
liquors sold at those houses were mixed with water,
and that thia, according to the recent decision of the
Lord Chief Justice in the case of Sand v. Small, was
sufficient to protect the publican. The magistrates
ruled, however, that the increase of the bulk, weight,
or measure of the articles sold, or the concealment of
inferior quality to so serious an extent as in these
cases, must be regarded as fraudulent, and as a breach
of the act, even where such notices as thoee alleged by
