LAW OF LIBEL.

Lord CAMPBELL moved the order of the day, for the
third reading (title Law of Libel Act Amendment Bill. lie
said the time 11IF at last arrived when their Lordships had to
take iNto oensideration this important Bill. He had hoped
that their Lordships would have agreed to it, as being founded
on the sane principles as the Azt of last session, hot he had
the mortifiestion of understanding that it was to be opposed in
tofu:tees entitled to the highest respect. In the Bill of last
iesseos their Lordships desk with the subject of private de-
.innotton, and passed a Bill with the double object of protect-
ing private eharacter and punishing slanderers. He had the
sat4ctien of stating that that Bill worked well. In conse-
quence of more stringent enactments, more than one slanderous
weekly paper had been dropped, and frivolous prosecutions
against other journals had been checked. The great principle
of that Bill was that it admitted the plea of the truth of a fact
as a justifieation on a charge of libel. This plea had been here-
tokris exolnded, both before the jury and after the verdict, as a
plea for She mitigation of punishment. Nay, it was eon-
tislered an aggravation of the offence, for the maxim arose,
the gmater the truth the greater the libel. Their
Lordships were shocked at such a doctrine, and enacted, that if
a .defendant proved a thing.,to be true, and that he published it
ilk the Politic good, he should be entitled to an acquittal. But
this applied only to private cases and actions between
individuals. With regard to Government prosecutions,
, the old
system still prevailed. His Noble and Learned Friend (Lord
Brongiiaus), in the letter which he had addressed to Sir Jtmes
Graham, complained of this defect in the law. He (Lord
qsnapbell) aeknowledged it to be a very great one, but he
tiruflit it mere expedient to apply the principle first to private
prosecutions, knowing that it must inevitably afterwards be ap-
pliecUp public ones. In eases of seditious libel, it did not, and
asjhunt, to apply. But where a defendant stated certain specific
biethought it a monstrous principle that the truth or
falsehood of these facts should be considered immaterial. Sup-

ATTEMPTED MURDER.--On Thursday afternoon the
neighbourhood • of Redcross-street, Southwark, was thrown
into great excitement 'by a report that a woman had mur.
Hdered her husband. The unfortunate sufferer, Mr. Samuel
Johnson, is a highly respectable man. Yesterday afternoon
he arrived home to dinner from Billinsgate-market, at which
place he is a salesman, when he found his 'wife inebriated,
and no dinner provided for him or his family. He remon-
strated with her for her conduct, and was about to leave the
' house, when his wife, in a state of frenzy, seized a table-
knife and stabbed him the back of the head, just below, the
scalp. Their son, a lad about ten years of age, was in the
room at the time; he immediatelv rushed out and alarmed
the neighbours, who called in the assistance of the police.
Constable 176 M, found the unfortunate husband lying in
the passage in a pool of blood, which was streaming from the
back of his head, where the knife still was. He pulled it
out immediately, and oonveyed him to Mr.. Woods, a sur-
geon, in Union-street, who found the wound of such a dan-
gerous description, that after stopping the blood, he ordered
him to be taken instantly to Guy's Hospital. It was there
ascertained that the knife had entered with great force be-
tween the nape of the neck and the skull-bone, against
which it had struck, and that little hopes were entertained of
the man's recovering. The wife, a dissipated-looking female,
about 30 years of age, was taken into custody.

OTIIERS.

Mr. Whately, Mr. Martin, and Mr. Cleasby appeared for
he plaintiffs ; and Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, Mr. Humfrey, Mr.
Tenderson, Mr. Robinson, and Mr. Price for the defendants.

• This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, the well-
known ship-builders, at Limehouse, against the defendants,
shareholders in the once celebrated British and North Ame-
rican Steam-ship Company, to recover a sum of 1,7441., the
amount alleged to be due for repairs done to the British
Queen steamer, once the property of the Company alluded to,
but since sold by them to the Belgian- Government. It was
stated to the Court by the Learned Counsel for the plaintiff's
to take such a sum from each one of the several defendants as
he might have been, by the non-payment of his calls, in-
debted to the association itself. Should counsel for the defend-
ants wisely consent to this arrangement, then the question for
the Court and jury would.be merely one of liability. Counsel
for the defendants at once admitted this to be a very hand-
some offer, and would not therefore trouble the plaintiffs to
prove the various items of account, but would confine their
efforts to contesting the question of liability. Upon this evi-
dence was at once adduced to show that all the defendants
had signed the deed of partnership with the exception of
Collins, and that he (Collins), as well as the rest of the de-
fendants, were all of them shareholders in the Company. On
behalf of Warburton, witnesses were put into the box to
prove that the handwriting of Warburton to the deed was
net the handwriting of the present defendant to the action,
Peter Warburton ; and it was urged generally for the other
defendants, that they had not held themselves out to the
world as responsible parties in connexion with the British
and North American Steam-ship Company. The jury, how-
ever, found for the plaintiffs against all the defendants, for
the several amounts due and unpaid by them as shareholders
in the Company.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, July 5.
,Sittings at Guildhall, before the CHIEF BARON and a
Special Jury.)
HALIFAX AND OTHERS r. VERNON.

Mr. Erie, Mr. Watson, and Mr. Bovill, were counsel for
the plaintiff; Mr. Jervis, Mr. Cockburn, and Mr. Unthank, for
the defendants.

This was an action brought by the eminent firm of Glyn,
Halifax, and Co., bankers, to recover the sum of 4,137/. 17s. 10d.
from the defendant, Colonel Vernon, M.P., alleged to be a
shareholder in the well-known Talacre Coal and Iron Com-
pany. The case appeared of a very intricate character, and
likely to occupy the Court very many hours in its unravelling.
When our reporter left Mr. Warwick Werton, jun., was under
cross-examination, a determined effort being made to extract
admission from him that several sums of money, subscribed
by shareholders to the Talacre Company, had, by witnesses
father, in conjunction 'with Alderman Thomas Wood, been
applied to the purposes of the St. George's Harbour Com-
pany. Many strange disclosures were expected to be made
before the conclusion of the case.

PLEASING RESULTS.—With the gaiety assumed by
nature in the brightness of the summer season there are
few disinclined to participate; and in pursuit of those
rational enjoyments personal agremens, in all their
variety, are necessarily objects of desire—those, of
which the perfection and durability are at once obvious
and important, meet their most available preservative in
Gowland's Lotion ; first, as a decided remedy for all
cutaneous impurities ; and, secondly, as asi elegant, mild,
and effective appendage to the toilet, removing every
species of local discolouration, defending the skin from
all the well-known effects of heat upon its surface, and
as contributing largely to continued delicacy and fresh-
ness of the complexion.
Ladies travelling, or temporarily subjected to any
deviation of equable temperature, will find. in Rowland's
Kalydor a renovating and refreshing auxiliary, dispel-
ling the cloud of langour from the complexion, and
• immediately affording the pleasing sensation attendingrestored elasticity of the skin. The distressing and
unsightly varieties of cutaneous eruptions are also
promptly eradicated by the Kalydor. Spots, pimples,
freckles,
discolourations, and sallowness, yield to its
specific qualities, and are succeeded by a smoothness
and transparency of the skin, giving nose to sensations
,of the utmost pleasure and surprise. Being universally
preferred, its consequent great demand excites the
cupidity of unprincipled shopkeepers, who give the title,
of - " Genuine"
Daly or to some compounds of their own
manufacture, of the most deleterious character, con-
taining mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the
complexion, . and by their repellant action endangering
health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to
see that the words " Rowland's Kalydor" are on the
wrapper. All others are fraudulent counterfeits !! !
OPENING LETTERS AT THE POST-OFFICE.—A
gentleman posted a letter at Cowes, addressed to a gen-
tleman at Reading. It bears the Cowes post-mark of
the 27th of June, and the Reading, of the 28th. The
seal bears hisinitials as if it had never been opened,
but that it had been there cannot be the shadow of a
doubt, as the party in sealing it up put in the wrong
corners of the envelope, by which .means the Cowes
postmark was sealed within ;the Reading one only being
outside on that part of the envelope ! This was imme-
diately seen, and the cover was returned to the writer. _

CAPTAIN WARNER.

Sir J. GRAHAM said there was a notice of motion
on the paper with respect to Captain Warner's invention ;
but, as his Right Hon. Friend at the head of the Govern•
ment was most anxious to be present when that subject
came forward, and as it was, from particular circum-
stances, impossible for him to be in his place that day,
he would suggest to his Noble Friend (Lord Ingestre)
the desirableness of postponing the motion, either until
to-morrow or Friday.
Lord IN GESTRE. said he should, under the circum-
stances, postpone the motion until to-morrow at five
o'clock.

IF RE PIERRE CHARLES BRUNEAU CARE.

The insolvent in this case, who is a native of France,
and whose debts and liabilities were stated to be very
large, applied to be liberated on bail until the day ap-
pointed for his final hearing.
A very general impression seems to prevail that it
is quite impossible for any person to obtain his liberty
by even the most speedy adoption of the different tech-
nical forms under a period of six weeks or two months,
but this case, notwithstanding the number of debts
which appeared in the insolvent's schedule, afforded a
striking instance of the quickness with which insolvents
may take advantage of the present state of the law. The
prisoner's attorney brought him into Court. and securi-
ties being found for his appearance on the day fixed for
his hearing he was liberated, after being in prison for only
eleven days from the date of his arrest.

STRAND THEATRE

A pleasant little interlude, entitled La Polka, was
produced at this theatre last evening, with complete
success. The fun of the piece, of course, turns upon
the Polkamania which is so prevalent at the present
moment, and the heroine is a fascinating French
opera dancer, Mademoiselle Aventurine, a professor
of the true Polka. This character was admirably
sustained by Mrs. Montgomerie, whose broken
English sounded very pretty, and who threw
into the part that mixture of naivete and
espieglerie, which makes the French female
character so interesting. Around the heroine
circulate various satellites, such as an ancient dancing
master, who teaches the Gavotte, and calls it the
Polka. A young aspirant, who, having been vic-
timised by the old dancing master, comes to Aven-
turine's to learn the true Polka, and there, meeting

th Polly Lightfoot (excellently acted by Mrs. C.
Melville), who has come in search of her husband,
an amorous old coxcomb, who makes love to Aven-
turine, mistakes Polly for Aventurine, and the old
dance of Sir Roger de Coverley, which she teaches
him, for the Polka. All their mistakes are, however,
cleared up, and the piece concludes with the real
Polka, elegantly danced by Mrs. Montgomerie and
Mr. Roberts in appropriate costumes„ and which was
loudly and deservedly encored. This is one of the
best acted and most amusing trifles to which the
Polka has as yet given birth, and it is no doubt
destined to a long run. It was preceded by Martin
Chuzzlewit, in which the acting of Hall, in the double
character of Pecksniff and of Sairey Gamp, is beyond
all praise. His Pecksniff is the best on the stage.
The house, we were glad to see, was crowded from
the commencement of the evening.

PORTS AND HARBOURS.
Colonel DAWSON DAMER appeared at the bar as
Comptroller of the Household, and stated that he had
to acquaint the House that her Majesty had received the
address relating to the several tidal harbours, ports, and
rivers, and that her Majesty had been pleased to return
as the answer, that consideration should be given to the
subject.

THE RAJA OF SATTARA.
Mr. HUME moved for copies of all correspondence
relating to the deposed Raja of Sattara, which has taken
place between the Government of India and Major Car-
penter, the officer in charge of the Raja, from September,
1839, the time of his Highness' departure for Bemires,
to the Ist of January, 1844. The Hon. Member said it
had been his intention to submit to the House, in moving
for these papers, a short statement of the injuries of the
Raja of Sattara ; but as he had been informed that there
was no objection to their production he was unwilling
to take up the time of the House by entering into details.
Dr. BOWRING seconded the motion. This unfortu-
nate Prince had long been waiting for justice, and he
hoped he would not have to wait for it much longer.
Mr. B. BARING said there was no objection on the
part of the Company to produce the return.
After some observations from Mr. HOGG and Sir T.
COLEBROOKE, the motion was agreed to.
