PLISM DAIL= -ILK ANCIMIZIN.

This eame au before the court on Wednesday lest The
assignee of a bankrupt ranked Augustan galled to needed
RD order at Mr. Ocuakkaniouer Faae for the diadtair of the

bankrupt. It appeared that in 1860 Angentein, being then
bankrupt, bad °braised his certificate ; and, as he himself
alleges, bad not &ince carried on any business between that
time and May 22, 1862, when he was arrested on an ordi-
nary non-trader debt. He was declared a bankrupt while
in prison by one of the registrars of the court, under the
Bankruptcy Act of 186 L Mr. Bailey, a ereditor for 1,6001.,
was choose amigaer ea 10th of January, and on the 18th of
February the commissiorier ordered his discharge. It was
now sought to show that the bankrupt had been dealing in,
and was perinea of patents which were said to be of the
value of 5,C00/., and the enigma) desired to have further
investigation into his affairs, notwithstanding that he had
passed his last examination, besides a subsequent and fur-
ther examination which been allowed by the court below.
The Lord Chancellor then directed that the ease should
stand over, and that an affidavit should be made as to the
facts on which it Wei sought to make further inquiry.
Mr. Einionaad Mr. Bagley, for the assignee, now produced
au affidavit to the effect thatinquiry had enabled him to state
' hie belief that if opportunity were given for investigation, it
mead he.hown that the bankraptbadfreedulentl contracted
=and also that at a future time he would pee-
of property which would be applicable to the pay-
Wee of his deb.,.
The Lord Chancellor mid that he would direct the peti-
tion to be sus fended for six weeks for the purposed produc-
ing evidence of those facts.

El PARTE DOWNIELE-1111 DOS WELL
This was an appeal from Mr. Oommissimier Gen Mara,
who had suspended the bankrupt's discharge for twelve
months, and until after he had undergone three :roods'
imprisonment, on the ground that he bed contracted debts
without reasonable sad probable prospect of their being
paid. The bankrupt, who described himself as a promoter
of corners, had been twice insolvent previously to his
Dreier bankraptcy, the debts under three inaolveociee
being near 20,0001., and the liabilities sow being over
1,1001., uessieured.
Mr. Beer, for the bankrupt, urged that the debts had
been contracted, not on his personal account, there being
oo
private debts, bet at behalf of the companies with
which he was ocentected ; and that if the sums due to him
from the companies ware paid to bin, he could discharge
the liabilities for which he had been arrested, and hence
hie application to the Court of Bankruptcy. Besides which
the commiseirer had acquitted him of fraud.
Mr. Roxburgh,who appeared for the amignee,idated that the
bankrupt had metered into contracts with two canpries for
the sale of two mines whir be was to procure, and for
which, as promoter of the companies, be was to receive
5,000/. and 3,0001. respectively, and he deposited 2001. of
his own money with the companies. The rheum having
failed, the bankrupt had not only not obtained the gems
which he impeded sa promoter, but had loss the messy
which he had departed ; while, if the claims whir he had
on the companies were paid, he would be in a paid= to
dS.&arr his debt.
The Lord Chaaaellor mid the oommiusioser lad done
rightly in strictly examining into this car, and eepecirly
as there was no opposing creditor, sod his dealing with it
was quite justified ander the 150th section of the Bank-
ruptcy Act of 1861. But it was incumbent ender that sec-
tion to look only at the debts which came wider that act.
The bankrupt was charged with contracting debts without
reasonable and probable prospect of payment. The only
' debts were connected with the °Detracts for the punkas of
the mines ; and if they were boos fide Seriatim., they
would have brought the bankrupt a cenelderable sea ; end
looking to the cirennistances, he did not sacsulkiest
ground to come to the coorkeion that theft was
no reasonable expectation of the payment of the
debts. Although unwilling to tome to a different
orelosion from that of the coinnikernee, yet he could sot
agree that the debts wore ooatrsted without res.

tracts might be bees tide, the question arose whether

(Before the Karter of the Rolle)

Mini 11 Meerle3da, though he had isasid t elleiate, and
boa devoted himself to literature, and armed his living
by editing sad contributing to the British Ensign and
the Bn lime Standard, and writing for other pub-
lications. The jury in returning their verdict said
specially that they Wined the editor wrote the 'Wale
compliuned of in the honest, genuine, and boat Me belief
that what he wrote was correct. The plaintiff was the pro.
pricker, in partnerahip with Mr. Pratt, of the two papers
above mimed, and some years before the subject.matter is
dispute he published in thorn a series of letters addressed to
the late Prams Consort with reference to H.R. H. the Pnuce
of Wale& in which he stated, and no doubt entertaioed, the
sincere conviction that great deoger wan to be Wed
from bin royal highneee's raft to Canada of his becoming •
Momma catholic, from his being played is oienatunicatiou
with certain parties there, and of his becoming an infidel
from his going to Oxford Univeraty. (Laughter.)
• The Lord Chief Justice—And also from his visiting Rome.
(Laughter.)
Mr. Bovill—Yes. The plaintiff in his cross-examination
had shown that he addressed those letters to- the British
public is all sincerity, and that they had the effect of in-
creasing the circulation of the paper 100,000 copies, and
the way he acted wu to call upon those who setertaieed
similar views to subscribe for the gratuitoui cirealation of
ironies. Having been so successful with the Priam Con-
ant's letters he mitered on a new subject in the autumu of
1861, that of the salvation of the Chinese—(laughter)—by
the publication el a series of letters is the Zionvn and
Brandoni, end he called on the public in the most Widlllll
gunner to participate in attaining that end by subscribing
towards the gravitons circulation of the two papers.
Mr. Jastice Mallor—Were they for circulation amongst
the Chinese! (Laughter.)
Mr. Bovill—No. 'Phe letters were written in English—
but to increase the circulation. _

The Lord Chid Justice said the learned counsel had not
put it quite fair towards the plaintiff. The circulation was
to be the means by whiob the solemn object was to be
achieved. It struck one as absurd that these letters woe
to stir up the community and to stimulate them into active
exertion for the 000 version of the Chinese,and it brought
down a fair amount of ridicule from the writer of the article
complained of. If he had stopped there no one could have
blamed him, but he had gone further.
Mr. Bovill —And as the writer humorously observed,
"all at the low charge of one penny." (laughter.) The
plaintiff was not in the position of a pnvate gentle-
man entertaining those views, but as cos who
by publishing them had called attontion to them.
The plaintiff in his bitten had celled attention to the im-
portance of ant-tribing, and in many of them he requested
that the subscriptions should be forwarded to his esteemed
Iblither (Mr. Pratt, who was in partnership with him).

The Lord Chief Justice—One looks after the spiritual
element, and the other the commercial. (laughter)
Mr. Bovill thee referred to the letters of the sub.
scribers. some wish names and others with initials attached
to them. One was an " Old Soldier," and some little ridi-
cule was throve ou the probability that the plaintiff was
the " old soldier." (Laughter.)
The Lori Chief Justice mid if it had been only ridicule be
should have gone along with the learned counsel.
Mr. Bovill—lt was stunned that the old soldier was
fietidoua
The Lord Chief Justice said it yes not only so, but it also
directlycharged that the plaintiff while putting forward to
the pub& the pest and important object of contributing,
sulacribing and of using every townie effort to convert the
Chimes to Christianity, was guilty of mum

and that be put down names and subscriptioes which pro--
famed to be a subscription liet. He could not help thinking
that it was a charge of direct swindling and obtaining mosey
wader false pretences.
Mr. Justice Crompton said it was not a criticism on the
week but a direst charge of crime.
Ifs Bodll thee referred to the remarks of the writer on
the sitheedyptioi list, and his allusion to their existence like
MO. Eambead %my Camp.
The Lan& Chid Justin said it was a very pungent and
whim snide.

which had not been done. . . .

The Lor7lChiet jirsiiCe said that, however much the
',Wears sendact was open to criticism, it was imposibie
the moment he appeared in the witness-box to doubt hie
=,:d that- he and those connected with him were
in the water.
After some considerable discussion,
' The Lard Chief Justice said there should be no rule. The

pleiatiß that be pat forward the great and sacred cause of
the diesminatioci of religious truth amoogat the heathen
to put money into his pocket, and that he was acting as an
inVarotiser learned judge' concurred.
Role refused.
tr. Borill said the jury found that the article wee
written under the boon fide belief that the charges were
true. Here was • subject brought before the public by Dr.
Campbell in his own newspaper, nod be asked the public to
tar tielyes for the purpose of 'urinating certain objects.
Another paper attacked them, and maid that instead of
doing it for the purpose of the salvation of four hundred
matians ot Chums, be did it for the purpose of putting
money into kis pocket. The question was, had theßistariay
Review • sight to mike such • comment.

The Load Chief Justice said it must not be assumed that
the jary only pve the damages on that point. He was
obliged to tell the jury that if they did sot cos:eider the
reticles privileged both the charges were libellous. It most
be takes that tie damages were given for tolh charges.
Mr. Bovill mid he was enjtled to a rule if he could

show then the verdict was wren on either point. This was
• autter that bad beam brought before the public by the
plaintiff, sad ens copse to puWiceritielern.
The Lord ChiefJustios—Most certainly, if fair and proper.
Mr. Bovill contended that the moment it was shown that
ea article wan privileged, it became neoessary to show ex.
prams 'mane&
Mr. Justice Crompton said it was • mistake to speak of •
eewspaper being privileged. The editor of a newspaper
bed no different privilege from any other of her Majcsty's
subb'ecte, He on linty was not privileged to nuke &argue
of dishonesty. He thought the jury had very prof erly
land the ant* libations.
Mr. Jostle Blaokbunr—To make it privileged you mart
amuse it is libellous.
Mr. Bovill read that portion of the article which referred
to the subscription list and the "' Old Soldier," and said
there was a gre t deal of banter about it.
The Lord Chief Justice said he did not know that an
impalatioe was the leas painful or effective when put I. tie
ships of • banter. It was a laughing way of puttiag it to
say, 'So may copies fee the ' Old Soldier.' We know who
the old soldier is r but it was woe the less libellous.
Hr. Justice Mellor—You admit It is a libel.
Mr. Bovill—The jury have found it so. (Laughter.)
The Lead Chief Jostles said a public man's public el/t-
-ractor might be criticised, and the accuracy of his judgmeet
questioned, but hie private reputation must not be attacked,
or bees motives attributed to his acts.
Mr. Bovill said he should canter! that It ga dile=,ess.
it was eeseeetsd with the subject matter
Was not this such a ease as would render it necessary for
the public interest that the matter should be brought for
ward

money ? The learned counsel proceeded to argue that this
case stood in the same position u giving a character
to a servant, and • vowel stating that the servant was dis-
honest wee net actiopable if be made the statement in the
honest honk ado belief that it was true.

Yr. Justice Crompton said that a man giving an answer
to • question was a very different thing from publishing the
charge in an advertieemett.
Bovill said he could not perceive a more important
°Meet time that of informiug pence. that the money wee
wanted for one purpose when is was wanted for another.
The Lord Chief Justice—Why did you not justify, and
ask the jury to come to your opinion ?
• Mr. Bovill further urged that it nu to the interest of the
public that these criticisms should be published.
The Lord Chief Justice said he believed that the great
security to public conduct was the high sense of public
honour and honestyof our public) niece sod hebelieved timid

tickedby persons who entertained Myosin views, sod to be

Yr. Bovill maid that might be so as a matter of policy.
The Lord ado! Justice—But you my that it se to the
interests of society that it should be so.
Mr. Bovill then proceeded to quote wend eases of libel
triad within the last few years in the Gnirk of Common
Pleas and Exchequer, especially the ease of Paris v. The
Daily T and the opinions of the herbed

in such oases there should be proof of express malice. A

brought is, unquestionably, libellous. It imputes that the
plaintiff, in putting forward the great and sacred cause of
the dissemiostion of religious truth among the heathen,
wu acting as an imposter, his sole motive being to MA
money into his own pocket. It chines him with pub-
lishing, in his newspaper, as genuine, • fictitious oorre-
spondence, addressed to him by imaginary persons,
and the publication of • fictitious subscription
hit. It is said that inasmuch as the plaintiff pat
forward this public object in a public newspaper,
addressing himself to the public at large en a
matter of not only public but universal interest,
he wee open to public comment, and in that pro-
position I entirely concur. If hie scheme was fraudulent
and disproportioned to the object he prepaid ter have in
view, it was fit far comment and was within the scope of
fair criticism ; bat it seems to me the line most be drawn
between beetle criticism, between a man's public conduct
and the motives by which he we% actuated ; and you have
no right to impute hue, sordid, dishonest, and wicked mo-
tives. It turns out that this imputation was most un-
doubtedly without foundation. It may have been that Dr.
Ounpbel4 in addition to the religious enthusiasm and zeal
that actuated him, may not have been altogether Insensible
to the collateral object of promoting the circulation of his
weekly publication, but there is no foundation for saying
that it assumed on his part the character of imposture, cc
that he bad resorted to a fraudulent and false device to
induce the public to oontiibute towards it. That being so,
hir. Bovill was obliged to take hi stand on narrower
ground. He says that because the writer had • belief that
it was true, then he was justified. I moot subscribe to
that. You have • perfect i;ght to canvass • man's public
conduct, to say that it was foolish and absurd, and that
the effect of the subscription which Dr. Campbell was ask-
ing the public to contribute was to put money into his
pocket; but when you go beyond and state that
be is actuated by • desire of putting money le :,o his
own pocket, and that be resorts to fraudulent
expedite:de to do so, you are charging him with positive dist-
hooesty. The doctrine cannot be pushed further than a
full right to comment in the true spirit of criticism. It is
said that it is for the interest of society that men's public
conduct should be criticised ; true, bul on the other band,
it seems to me that we all have an eqcal interest in the
maintenance of public character, withal: which public
affairs never could be conducted with • view to the public
welfare, and we ought not to sanction sticks upon public
men destructive to their character and honour, outer, they
can be proved to be true. I therefore think no rule ought
to be granted.
The other judges gave similar opinions. Rule refused
accordingly.

es of the week has been gather anaideralie, as far as an
as be loured from the reports of sellers. In
yarns the chief Miriam has been for India, but still there
has been a fair demand for other market., Including Mina
and the home trade. For Germany there leas been remark-
ably few offers making, the high prices no &ate dirmerag-
iag buyers. Suraiees have been put faith that continental
manufacturers are relying chiefly upon • earner yarn, of
home production, but such notions are probably only pat ,
forth for want of more intelligible rearms why so little is
doing for the oontioent when buyers for nearly all other
markets appear more or lees excited. Prises have advaseed
folly id. per lb. on yarns suitable to India ; and for such as
are required by borne manufacturers for shertinp, printers,
mulls and farmer se much as id, to Id., and in some
oases Id. per lb. more than the rates of hut week have been

In some eases eve* the beerier kinds of shirt*, (late)y a
good deal neglected) have been salable. Prkes have ad.
ranged 3d., sod in some instances 4gd. per piece during the

firmer feeling to the holders of cloths for other znatimin
but it tends to keep back buyers, who will probably with.
draw as much as possible from the market till the orders
for India begin to slacken. The activity in the lianahr:ter

on account of the home trade, and in the foreign department
there is a fair amount of busiest &tag, better upon the

state of European politics continues to check animation in
that branch of the export trade. From the North the orders

there has been • good demand this spring. From the a-

BOAS /LOUDEST AND LOIN OF Than LIVER—
On SaMuds, afternoon last a shocking accident occurred ea
the river Wiry, close to the town of Guildford, which re.
salted in the loss of three lives by drowning. It appeals
that at about a quarter to five two gemthiense—ow of whom
appeared to be a German and the other en Begthheass,
who lad been staying far some days at the Angel MONA, fa
eompeay with the wife of one and the mother of the alba
for he benefit of their bealth—presented themselves at
Mr. Welles beat-house at Guildford-bridge, sad dated that
they should like to to • row on thir neer. As neither el
them was expert at the oar, they requested that a seen
might acoxepany them ; and a led named Gooey Wheatley,
who was well accustomed to the river, and •good w
wee selected for this purpose. The beat they kind
was a stout skiff, called the Prices of Wales, calculated to
carry four and at five o'clock they set met ea that
excursion. Sheerly after six o'clock • nersassgeft *retread
Mr. Wells's, and informed him that cos of his boats was
lying bottom upwards, nearly opposite Mr. Bum D. Man-
es park, at Woodbridge, and that mme hale watie Scat*
en the water. Mr. Wells, without • moment's delay, de.
tehisi • punt and the dregs in the direction kediented.
were let go, and after two or three bawls the
bodiesdraor the three unfortunate deceased were mask sad
deposited on the lawn in front of Woodbridge-bum'. They
WWI thence conveyed to the Bell Taveru. at Stoke, when
medical attendance was obtained without daily ; but ter
late to be of any avail. The supposition is that one of the
gentlemen might have been about to try his haled at an car,
and that in changing from the stare to the rower's seat ha
stepped ton much on one side, and thus waked the best.
The three bodies were fared close together, as if in the
nosy of despair one had clasped hold of the other.
Wheatley, who was regularly employed by Mr. Well, the
been long accustomed to the river, and be is dated to have
been • gad boatman and an expert *sinister.
