WORSHIP-STREET.

Dr. Hermann IMO, of Wobarri-plarn, Romal4quare.
was charged before Mr. Cooke with writssg and publishing
a libel upon Herr Gustavus George ;well, professor of hur-
l= and Garman literature, accusing him of being • eff
pay of the French police, demi:wing prams who
were afterwards imprisoned, and other acousatioss
Lied to materially and injuriously prejnos him in his pro-
fession sod character. _

Yr. lioiinsoo, the hamster, appeared for the prosecution ;
Yr. Beard for the defence • and a number of foreigners
Persia atteodanoe and watched the case with greet iaterest.
Mr. Robinson called the complainant, who stated—l have

1848, from which time I Naiad in Paris till 1859, whoa I

eight earn master at the City of London Coll•p, for air
years belonged to a royal medical college, and am also, with
my wife, proprietor of a ladies' school. I oorrespowd with
German newapapem which advocate the istareele of Aadvigh
and was innately a member of the National Vll4llB. •
society assembling at Seyd's Hotel, in Fiesbaryogame,
promote the general interests of Germany. Dr. Johann
Gottfried Kinkel, of Bloomfield-road, Maida-hill is the pre-
sident of the association ; I was secretary, and the pulgis
who were interested io its objects were freely admitted.
The defendant is also • member, and en likewise is Here
Frans Jevese, • ',Mamma now present, and both of whom
are generally opposed to me in political views. Oa the sth
inert. there was • meeting of the Verein, at which some 70
or 80 members were pelmet, and before I left there was a
general political discussion, but wholly free from any par-
meal attacks. Os Wednesday, the 9th, I received • com-
munication from the president, Dr. Kinkel, who at his
bonne beaded me • paper containing the libel I complain of,
and which paper I believe to be in Herr Jevens's heed-
writing. The charge, in that paper I declare to be wholly
without foundation, and calculated to be highly prejudicial
to me. _ _

--Herr Franz Jevene—l am cashier in Sieben and Co.'s
bowie. and am also a merchant and member of the National
Varela. I was present at the meeting on the btb inst. at
Boyd'• After Dr. Zerffi had left, a general coovereation
went on, when Dr. Beigel, the defendant, produced and read
a paper which so strongly affected Dr. &rill that I
instantly rose and said that we as ir.emben —and
there were thirty present when the paper was read—
owed it as a duty to the preddset to bring such a document
to his knowledge, as it was impossible ler as, if the charges
in it were true, to sit any longer at the same table or in the
company of Dr. Berta. F asked Dr. Nigel for the paper to
show to Dr. Kinkel, and the defendant agreed that I should
do so, assuring me and declaring that it had been written at
the dictation of a gentleman named Englander, who was
concerned is the particulars of it, but that he (the de-
fendant) had written it so indifferently a straoger could not
make it out. He then promised, if I called the next morn-
ing at his house, that he would dictate to me the °entente
of the paper, which be did, assenting to my laying it before
the president, which I afterwards did, and the paper now in
court is the same in ntheteoce as Dr. Beigel dictated to me,
though not literally the game. The paper was then read.
Mr. Beard was about to open the defence, when
Mr. Cooks said he thought it unnecessary to go into it.
He did not think it was such • libel as he could act upon,
though it might be matter for • criminal information or in.
dictment in another court. lie inanely thought the defen-
dant intended it to be printed or published when he dictated
it to the privet* witness ; he thought it was gives for hie
private information or
within
only, sad that it was not
snob • 040 AS Mlle the intent of the act Of paths-
remit. He should therefore discharge the defendant, but
that would not do an injustice to the prosecution, who were
still at liberty to adopt the other proceeding' indicated if
they thought proper.
