The Court was engaged all the morning with cases in the

to the public.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY-)

(Sittings in Banco.)
THE KING V. PHILLIPPS.

Ia this case Mr. CRESWELL on a former day obtainet I. a
conditional order for a criminal information against the c le-
fendant for a libel upon the character of Mr. Richardsc
an eminent engineer connected with the Grand Juncti on
Railway.

At the sitting of the Court this morning, the Learnt Id
Gentleman, on behalf of his client stated his unwillin,gne ss
to proceed with the indictment, provided Mr. Philip ps
would make reparation for the injury he had done, by stat-
ing his regret for what he had "occurred, and by retrac ting
the offensive expressions in the libel cernplained of.
The defendant, who appeared in person to show c: 'use
why the rule should not be made absolute, said that rather
than make any apology, he would suffer imprisonment,
banishment, or"death. He then proceeded to read an affi-
davit setting forth that he as an engineer had taken cer-
tain maps for the Grand Junction Railway, and had ; sug-
gested certain improvements to be made in their lines of
road, that for his trouble he demanded a sum of 201., the
payment of which was resisted by Mr. Richards, and fi )m
this a dispute arose between them, in the course of wix ich
the defendant published the libel, charging Mr. Richards w ith
misappropriating a part of the funds of the Company in 1 the
purchase of articles not required for their service. - 'I 'he
defendant then went into a detail of matters apparently lc in-
connected with the matter of the libel, and was frequently in-
terrupted by
The CHIEF JUSTICE, who told him that he was not
stating anything which could be considered cause ag. 'just
the rule. He suggested to the defendant the propriety of
making reparation for the injury he had done Mr. Rich ards
in the manner suggested by Mr. Cresswell, rather than all ow
the matter to go to trial.
Mr. PHILLIrrs said he would meet the trial with pi, ea-
sure, and deter further observations upon the case ut itil
then.—Rule absolute.

The COURT next took up the special paper, on which
there was nothing of any public interest.
