HZ &LAM AND HAZDIDIT.

We have received a latter from Mr. Bison complaining
that the judgment delivered by Mr. Commissioner Goa'burn
on his application for an order of discharge, preemie the
case in entire opposition to the facts, stating that its publi-
cation is likely to do him incalculable injury, and asking us
in " common_jestice "to print a long explanation which be
forwards. We are unable to comply with his request. It
is in the courts, not in our columns, that disputed fade
should be established. We simply report the proceedings
there. Probably Mr. Slann's purpose will be answered by
the publication of the last portion of his letter, in which he
says 'My solicitor has gives notice of "peal to the
Lords Justice@ against the_ judgment, which is altogether
against the evidence given."
