This Wino commenced yesterday. It was breught by
the plaintiff to recover damages from the delenclanf, by
season of certain slander spoken by him regarding the
plaintiff. The declaration stated that die plaintiff was •
minister of • certain congrons peelestant elimentent,
gaseding at • chapel mail Dade Chapel, in Manchester,
and that the defendant, **mining and naming to in
Ns* him be his good same and reputatios, and to brief( bin
Into lambi and disgrace, said to one William Co: Ford,
the fallewinr minnow and defamatory words of and
metterning the plaintiff, in answer to • question from
the said William Cox Ford :—" I charge the doctor,
meaning the plaintiff, with adultery sad fersisatioe; the

, first, sat guilty ; seconoly, that the plaintiff, being
a married man, had matured, sad committed adultery and
hiSiOSSIIM, with one Elisabeth Townley; and had also
ad end, sad committed adultery end fornication, with one
Ifflisabeth Oils/Mat, repliessio de injeri.

Mr. Marne, Q C., Mr. &least Wilkins, and Mr. Am-
Lead, appeared for the plaiatiff • and Mr. Knowles, Q C.,
gad Mr. Ovens& fee the defendant.
Mr. Martin, in opining the owe to the jury, said that it
required their son serious coasideration ; for the charge
against the plaintiff was, that h. had seduced two yount
women, and given drags to • third to procure abortion,
they Wag aembees ef • coorigation of which he was
'sinister. The *Lail was appeisted minister of Dude
Chapel, Mancimeher, in 18311, whisk was a chapel of small
else, but having given extreme satisfaction, • new dispel was
built fee his, which was opened la 1840, and was vested in
trustees, who am smelly the most respectable members of
the eoneregiti ; but disputes arose respecting the trustees
who were 'pp( lewd, and also regarding the doctrine
;retched by the plaintiff, which produced • feeling in the
magregation wli'.ch was much to be lamented. The
chapel was, however, opened, sad the plaintiff preached.
Tee same year, 1840, he married a MIN Bird, daughter
of Alderman Bird, of Manchester, and that lady did not
now believe one word of the aspersions whisk lad been
mat npoa tme hatband. In 1848 Alderman Bird died, and
also kW eldest ago, and in that year rumours of icapto-
twisty were spread abroad, which were investigated and
pprroved. Mrs. Bad. the mothez.in-law, after the death of her
busba•d, purposed to go to the south of Zeeland, and
wtehime het daughter to aecompaay her, the plaintiff resigned
his offi is the chapel, which was accepted, and a meeting
was held of the whole congregation, at which • resolution
was passed, verde:Mg the thanks of the congregation to the
plaintiff for his services, temporal and spiritual, sad wishing
him
of that everyresolu on bleating gad
as merey
members of ; and yet
that co withinng nice 1160 BAS
ms
here to pat him on his trial for matters which tank pleas six
yews bakes. In Jane of the last year the plaintiff was re-
quested to come among them again ; and Mrs. Bird, his
mother-iwlaw, having consisted to remain in Manchester.
he agreed to be re-sleeted to the °See which he had vacated.
Wyman then arose I. the colfegation ; • large
majority, however, voted for the aintiff ; but that
eleatioa, not having been eoaduct according to the
trust deed, soother election had to take plates, and
then all these readers were set afloat. Notwithstanding
the plaintiff was re-elected by a large majority ; and that
being the CIAO he could not flinch from the inquiry, for
which he declares there is not the slightest foundation, sad
if they should be of opinion that they were true, of coanehe
would not be worthy to hold the office • moment lamer.
But those charges having been made last year, it was consi•
dered that an investigation ought to be made, and accord-
ingly eight gentlemen met for that purpose,and they informed
the plaintiff that he mast give • pledge that he would take
no
e:epe to prosecute any persons who should come forward
to give evidence. This the plaintiff thought hard, and
asked who the withesem wore, which was not stated. He
the* said he was reedy to give a pledge to that effect, if, in
the event of any single woman coming forward unsubstan-
tiated, he should be allowed to go into • court of justice.
Upon this the tight 'seamen dunned to act, sad that in-
restigatiat was discoatianed. The defendant was gardener
to Mr. Loye, the banker, at Manchester, and • member of
the congregation, and he stated that the plaintiff had seduced
a young woman, and then caused her to take drugs to pre*
cure abortion, and as it is necessity, in order to constitute
slander, that the chugs should be something which would
constitute an indictable offence, that, therefore, wouldbe the
main question foe them to try. (The learned counsel then
proceeded to read the libel and the pleas which the defea •
daat had gamed upon the record.) With regard to
Elisabeth Gilchrist, she was • Sunday school teacher,
sad • member of the congregation toe tome years,
and was constantly in the habit of receiving the Sacra
meat from the plaintiff. In 1845 she had a serious Slums,
end was advised to go iato the country, bat when well
attended the plaintiff's chtpd, and it was during
illsesa that the attempt to promos abortion was alleged
to have taken plow. In 1847, removing from Manchester,
she waived aletter of dismissal, in order to be admitted to
another congregation, where she became a teacher' and so
conducted herself, that until December last year she was
eosidered by all to be a modest and virtuous young woman;
and yet now it was asserted by the defendant that she was
debauched by the phintiff six er seven years ago, and is to
be drugged into the witnesslox—• young woman who has
buss feet years married, with three children, to be produced
as grove her own infamy. Her mother would be brought
before them to state that she had always been • meat vir-
tuous girl. Her husband would come inward to state that
be beteved in her fidelity, and be would omen her on
this charge ; and when the young woman was told of it, she
said that she owed it to her mother, to her husband, and to
herself to meet the charges. And yet she was dinned for-
ward by men who professed Christian principles. The caw
was one of life and death to Doctor Nolen, bat they would
kw the whatnots and judge for themselves.

Mary Postlethwaite, a very pretty, interesting-looking
woman, stated that her maiden name wee Mary Gilchrist,
and that eke was, and still is, a member of plaintitre congre-
gat, end was 24 years of age. Has been married four years.
Her husband keeps a shop at Manchester. Up to the time
of km 'marriage was a milliner. When she did not sleep at
her employer's eke slept at her mother's, Was married by
Dr. Nolan fa 1846 to kir husband, who ts a brash saanufam
term. Has two children.

Did ern Dr. Nolan take any indecent liberty with you of
any kind? Weans—No.
Yoe hays heard the dawn sanest hist. Is then tke
slightest foundation for it ? Witnoss—No.

Crum-examined by Mr. Knowles—Then was a period of
he years between her being out of her apprenticeship and
being married. Wes in elx different situatiocia during that
period, as milliner ; was sometimes at home. Was a teacher,
which took her a good deal to the dispel. Occasionally
went to Dr. Nolan's house. There Wig no particular day.
Was east by her mother, who had published poems, and
the dentin was ono of her petrone. and had to write
notes. On most ocoasions Mn. Nolan was not there.
Knew the servant, Charlotte, who opened the dove. Stayed
sometimes not more than ten minutes. Had been at the
vestry with the doctor frequently, when nobody else was
there. Her objects in going were various. Whenever her
mother had any business, she always consulted the doctor.
Never went about any religious exercise. This continued up
to the time of her marriage. Sometime. bad been twelve
maths without stein. the doctor, except in the pulpit. Had
semeatiase met other Sunday-sthool teachers there. Joseph
Bottomley kept the chapel. He and !Wiwi(' lived In rooms over
the vestry. Don't remember, in 1844, going into Bottoreloys
sitting-room with the doctor. Recollected calling on Bot-
hooky about a house, when she met the doctor, who took
her up into Bottomley's sitting-room, and before she had
time to tell tom not, Bottomley left the room. He was
coming out as they entered. Stayed in the room ten mi-
nutia. Explained to the doctor her reason for wishing to
leave the house she was living in. That was the only time
she recollected going to Bottonoleys room with Dr. Nolan.
Her hasband keeps a brush warehous. Dr. Nolan did not
become security for her husband.
Re-examined—Mr. Metcalfe, to whom witness's husband
was apprenticed, resigned his business In favour of her hus-
band. Dr. Nolan
vestry is open to all members of the congregation who wish
to see Dr. Nolan. There was never any imputation upon
her conduct.

Catherine Gorman stated that she was 'bother of last wit-
ness, and a member of Dr. Nolan's congregation for two pun.
There was never any imputation against her daughter, and,
until last week, never hurd that say one had dared to
east say upon her.
This closed the ease for the plaintiff.

Mr. inewles, in addressing the jury for the delimint,
beemeght their indulgeoce, and said that it was
not to log that he had to eddies, gentlemen who=
had beet rolled forth by the appearance of the witness
Muy Pestlethwaite, sad by the story which had bora pre-
sented to them respecting a minium of the gospel, beiesiglog
to that respectable met to which the plaintiff asiserd ;
bat, to his mind, it would have been mere matisheeery if
the memorial which bad been pressated to the

usually saw plaintiff in the vestry. Plaintiff came to his
rooms, along with Mir Gilchrist oness about Ms months
after witness came to the chapel. Dr. Nolan asked ii ha
add have the room foe • few minutes, as the vestry was en.
gaged. Witness sad his wife went out, thereto.,, leaving
the doctor and Mite Gilchrist alone in the room,
where they remained about 20 minutes or half
as hour. Saw her agate at the chapel some time
afterwards, several tines. Upon a particular ()Mafia,
about 12 months after, one Sunday month's, after ser-
vice, after witness had locked up the chapel, on going out at
the chapel step", ladies to the school, he found the school-
room door bolted on the school side. Returned then through
the chapel, and down a beck way to the school. The door
there was locked, sad the key on the inside. There is a
third door, leadieg into the side yard, and that one wa-
llas bolted himself. There is • fourth door, and that was
bolted. Witness then rot over a wall, and looked in at the
window, sad saw the plaintiff and Miss Gilchrist. She was
standing with her back against the wall. [The witness here
described appearances, which could leave no doubt of the
criminal cobdnet of the plaintiff.] The plaintiff and Miss
Gilchrist cane out in about flee minutes. Witness told his
wife shoat the matter before they came sot.

Crothexamined by Mr. Martin : On being shown some
letters, witness stated they were in his wife's hand-writing.
In June last the plaintiff was absent from Manchester, with
his wife, at Leamington, and remained there *bent three
weeks. Witness's wife write letters to plaintiff during the time,
and witness knew of her writing them. Alter witness saw what
coo:minced him of the criminal conduct of plaintiff,he received
the Sacrament and went to plaintiff's church for five years.
Always suspected that when plaintiff and Gilchrist were in
the retry together that something wrong was going on. It
happeaed in the middle of the day on Sunday, after divine
service. Was present at Mils Oilchrict'e marriage with
Postlethwaite. Never said that he should resign Mistime-
tion as chapel-keeper, hiring he should be turned if. First
told what be had seen in January last to Mr. West, the at-
torney. Be was taken to Mr. West, who took it down is
writing. Recollects the day of thanksgiving. On that day
Ford and Dick came to witness and stated that they came in
consequence of something which Pettigrew, the defendant,
had said. Went down into the vestry to them. Ford asked
witness if he had ever seen Dr. Nolan commit adultery in the
chapel gallery ?to which witness answered, " No." Ford
then asked if he had tees him (Dr. Nolan) commit adultery
anywhere else ? and witness replied that he had never
seen him in the gallery. Dr. Nolan said to witness, "Joseph,
ad 1 you save me? " Previous to Mr. Dick and Mr. Ford
coming the Dotter entreated witness very earnestly. An-
swered them with an intention to deceive them, and kept
them in a state of deceit intentionally.
Mary Ann Bottanley called—Said she was the wife of the
last witness, and lived at the chapel bonze in 1844. In the
summer of that year Dr. Nolan came to the house with Miss
Gilchrist, and remained in a room together about a quarter
of en hour. Witesees's husband wee mime time alter asked
to state something he had seen with respect to Dr. Nolan.
Saw Dr. Nolan a few days ego, and he asked if she wee
going to Liverpool, and what she intended to say ? Witness
replied that it would depend on the questions she was asked.
In reference to Bottomley, the doctor said he wished her to
swear anything short of adultery, as it would then quash the
cam. The witness alluded to several matters which her hus-
band had said he knew respecting improprieties on the part
of Dr. Nolan with Miss Gilchrist, to which the doctor replied
with • threat as to what he would de if parties swore any-
thing against him.
By Mr. Martin—After the doctor and Mies Gilchrist were
at the chapel boom, in the summer of 1844, was of opinion
that improprieties had taken piths. Knew that the doctor
bad committed adultery, but thouebt him only a weak man.
(Laughter.) Witness admitted writing a letter (which was
handed to her for examination), in which, writing to Dr.
Nolan, after his resignation, she est nosed a hope that he
would, ere long, "num as gold twice purified in the firs,
and with a double portion of his spirit resting on him." At
that time she considered the doctor a different man, he
having expressed contrition for what had taken place. In
July last, might have written letters, in answer to inquiries
frcm Mr. Merritt, that ohs knew no ill of Dr. Nolan, and
esteemed him highly. Knew that he had enemies, and
Merritt was the • there were also Mr. Ward, and ethane,
whom she did not know by name. Was swan at that time
that Dr. Nolan had committed adultery, but it was a long
time previously.
Be-examined by Mr. Knewlse—Morritt used to rail at
Nolan, but ha never said what it was about. The letter, in
which she expressed esteem for Bolan, was written fear
years after the impropristits alleged against him, and she
thoutht he might have repented. (A letter was hem put in
sad read, written by the witness at the close of 1849. It
embodied the mast devotional sad religious sentiments;
referred to Dr. Nolan as a man to be esteemed, and concluded
with a fervent with that the doctor would ultimately over
come all his enemies )
This closed USG ease far the defendant ; and the court ad-
journed shortly bailee is o'clock to the Weis& to-day,when
this remarkable ease was protheded with.
Mr. Karlin put is a letter from the plaintiff to Mrs. Bet-
tthaley. The letter was dated the 19th December, and ran
thee :—" Deer Mrs. Bottomley-1 shall be glad if you come
up. I gat wet clothes yesterday, and am ill. Don't be
uneasyou as to any conflicts which may turn up. If Joseph
go agalast me, it la not your fault; and if he do
not, you will certainly have the merit of it. I shall
be kind to him; sad is the meantime I appreciate your
kindness. I am, sincerely and unchangeably, your friend
and pastor." _ _ _

Crosisexamiaed by Mr. Kam,lo—h wee at the hones of
Mr. Car, • member of the chapel, that I met Mr. Dick.

Dr. Nolan was somiaa oat. To the best of ay 'eaglet>
tion, I think when I tasked Dettomley if he had ever
teen the plaintiff somult sthiltary, I did not mention the
gamy. I think any liberty improper. (Leughter )
Thomas Dick said—l ant ace of the demons of the chapel.
The statement* of the last whams ere correct so to what
woad at the interview with Boterailey. I had bees dining
with Dr. Nolan at Mr. Cares before Ford come. I bad
lied a few words of otiavereatica with Dr. Nolan, and Mr.
Can sent for Ford. I sad Ford went direst from Dot-
Mean to Pet4reer' sad told him that B duisiley had
ditloetly dialed the automat he (Pettigrew) had made in
She morning.
Mrs. Posclethwaite recalled, examined by Mr. Mettle—
Before I was married I went with Dr. Nolan to Doti
tomley's room, when Bottomley, his wife, and father, and
mother had aft the room. Nothing improper ever took
place between Dr. Nolan and ms. This witness was !seised
with a lit, and had to be Candid out of court She kept
stamping her loot on the floor, and ejaculating with lewd
voles " Nn, no."
John Chidlow, a achoolnueter, said—l remember Bottom-
ley telling me he was leaving the chapel, for fear he should
be kicked out.
Attorney-General Knowles replied to the evidence adduced
is coatractictioa. lie expressed himself surprised at toe
term of intimacy in the letters of the laintiff to Mire. Bot.
tomley, and raised the conjecture that Dr. Nolan, on leaving
Carr's hones, had gime straight to Bottoraley, and induced
him to give the contradictkm which he shortly afterwards
did as to the charge of adultery, to Mr. Lrek and Mr. Ford.
Mr. Martin next replied ups the whole case, and spoke
at great length. Ile confessed himself disappointed with the
qua of hie learned friend, for he had expected that his
=would have induced him to say that the charge
rt. Postletbwaite at least should be withirawn, and
that she left the awn without • stair. Mr. Knowles had
asked why bring this action against • poor gardener ; there
Gould be oo doubt that he was supported by these who were
sasocieted against Dr. Nolan.
After Mr. Martin bad concluded his reply,
His Lordship proceeded to earn up, and pointer, out to
the jary what tt was that coastituted • privileged commu-
nication.

After a brief dehberatton, the jury returned a verdict that
the statements made by the defendant same under that
head.—Verdict for the detendaat seamanly.
