THE ALLEGED LIBEL ON SIR JOSEPH BAIVLEY

BOW-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
Dr. Shorthouse and Mr. Frederick Farrah, of the
Strand, appeared before Sir T. Henry to answer a
summons taken out against them by Sir Joseph
Hawley, charging them with publishing a false and
malicious libel.
On the bench with Sir T. Henry were the Duke
of Beaufort, the Earl of Westmorland, Lord W.
Lennox, and Sir C. Legard.
The libel complained of appeared in the Sport-
ing Times, and charged Sir Joseph with having
milked the public by scratching Sider°lite and
Blue Gown for the Liverpool Cup. It occurred
in a article on representative sportsmen, and set out
that a Sir Joseph Scratchawley was a person cap-
able of.doing anything, and that the scratching of
Siderolite and Blue Gown for the Liverpool Cup
was one of the most barefaced cases of picking the
public pocket that had ever occurred.
Sir Joseph Hawley, Bart., said I reside at 34,
Eaton. place. On Monday last I went to the
Sporting Times office and purchased a copy of the
paper produced. I was a member of the Jockey
Club, and there is no member of the Jockey
Club named Sir Joseph Scratchawley. I had
three horses, named Lictor, Siderolite, and Blue
Grown, entered for the Liverpool Cup, and on the
Monday before the race the last two were scratched.
I had not, nor did I know, of anybody who had
made any bets for me on those horses.
In answer to Mr. Straight, who appeared for the
defendants, he said he received a letter from Dr.
Shorthouse, regretting the appearance of the article,
but the summons had been issued.
The Duke of Beaufort was then sworn, and said
that, in his judgment, the article complained of
applied to Sir J. Hawley.
Sir Thomas Henry—There is no doubt at all to
whom it applies.
Mr. Lewis—What is meant by milking?
Sir T. Henry—l don't sit to go into that.
Duke of Beaufort—Milking means a person lay-
ing against his own horse, and then scratching it.
General Peel said—l have no doubt the article
applies to Sir Joseph Hawley.
Mr. Lewis was about putting some questions to
prove the falsity of the libel, when
Sir T. Henry said that is not required here ; you
need not go into that, as the truth or falsehood of
the statement can only be raised at the trial.
The proprietorship of the paper having been
proved by a clerk from Somerset-house,
Mr. Lewis said that would be his case.
Mr. Straight then addressed the bench for the
defendants, and said that ill apology ought
to be quite sufficient to satisfy the wounded
feelings of Sir Joseph Hawley; the article
had been inserted without the knowledge
of Dr. Shorthouse, and no one could more regret
the publication of it than be did: With respect to
Mr. Farrah he only acted under the direction of
Dr. Shorthouse, whose paper he merely published
in the ordinary course of business.
Sir T. Henry said he had no authority or juris-
diction to settle the matter here, and therefore he
must fully committed both defendants for trial,
but accepted bail.
THE CASE OF " THE MAN ABOUT Tows."—Mr,
Gilbert Robins, 11, Pancras-lane, the proprietor of
" The Man About Town," also appeared to an.
swer a similar charge. The libel complained o:
appeared in the paper published Nov. 13, and was
beaded " Turf Talk by an Outsider."
Mr. Ilumphreys, for Mr. Robins, tendered the
most ample apology, which was made before the
issue of the summons.
Sir T. Henry committed the defendant for trial,
but in this case also accepted bail.

In accordance with the Musketry Regulations
orders have been issuel at Aldershot for target
practice to cease on the 30th inst., and officers com-
manding regiments have been requested to cause
the targets in their charge to be removed to the
barrack store.
At this time, when the principles and practice of co-
operative societies engross so large a share of attention, it may
be well that Messrs. Parkins and Clotto should remind the no-
bility and gentry that they have for the last twenty years adopted
the pract cc. of buying the host goods in large quantities direct
from the manufa:turers, tit:tr.:hag every article in plain figures,
and retailing them at the smallest possible profit for ready
money ; and where, front distance or other C:LUSC3, cash pa';
ments have been impossible, they have never increased the price
of the articles delivered. They respectfully solicit an inspection
of their stock, consisting of portrait albums, writing-cases, dres-
sing-cases, dressing-bags, despatch boxesa envelope-cases and
blotting-books, inkstands, desks, stationery cabinets, ornamental
goods, purees, pocket books, cigar-cases, reticules, opera-glasses,
scent-cases, smelling-bottles, electro-gilt aud elegantly-mounted
articles—in fact, au endless variety of articles to suit every taste,
purpose, and pocket.—Parkins and ootto, 24 and 25, Oxford-
street, W.
