LAW INTELLIGENCE.

THE QUEEN V. BLACKSTONE, M.P.-CRIMINAI. IN-

FORMATION.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, on behalf of Mr. J.
A. Hedges and his sons, Messrs. John Hedges and
Charles K. Hedges, he had to move for a rule to show
cause why a criminal information should not be
filed against Mr. William Seymour Blackstone
for a libel. Mr. Hedges and his sons are soli-
citors at Wallingford, which place Mr. Blackstone re-
presented i❑ Parliament; and in 1845 Mr. Blackstone
disposed of his estates in that neighbourhood to a rela-
tive, named Harry Lee, whose solicitors the Messrs.
Hedges were. After the sale of the estates, Mr. Black-
stone interfered is the management of the property
in a way which was objectionable to the Messrs.
Hedges, who Mr. Blackstone was desirous of pre-
venting acting as Mr. Lee's solicitor. With that
view Mr. Blackstone began a long correspondence with
Mr. Lee, unknown to Messrs. Hedges, intended to de-
stroy the confidence which Mr. Lee reposed in them.
The correspondence ended in Mr. Lee entrusting his bu-
siness to other solicitors, but before the completion of the
object which Mr. Blackstone had in view, a letter was
written which was the libel now complained of, and
charged the Messrs. Hedges with having connived at a
forgery, and with having endeavoured to give a person
named Owen, who was charged with the forgery, an op-
portunity of escaping from justice.
The Court granted a rule to show cause.
