COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Frs. DS
LIR RL..—TRIE AG* DIEWSPAPIRs
THU 11140 O. amnia° DOWN'S.) RICKARDS.
Mr. &eatery stated, that this was an indictment
charging R. D. Richards, for insetting several malicious,
libels on the Earl of Glengalt, in a Newspaper caned
24 Age. The Learned Counsel had no doubt that the
Jury were acquainted with the existence of that News-
paper. No one could be a greater advocate for the un-
shackled liberty of the Press than he was; but when,
the proprietors of newspapers abuse the liberty they
enjoy, by circulating calumny and slander, then the
strong arm of the law ought to interpose. and the injured
patty allowed what satisfaction the defendant had it in
his power to offer. He would no longer detain the
Gentlemen of the Jury with prefatory remarks, hut
would proceed to lay before them the libellous matter
complained of. The first he should call their attention
to was contained in the Paper berating date Sunday,
Feb. 19, 1826, and was as follows:

The Jury could not fail of remarking the words
which were marked in italics—ti story-teller"—could
not be mistaken in their insinuation : it we., it) fact,
charging the Noble Lord with being a liar. And this
iusinuation was apparent throughout the whole para-
graph. The allusion to the Noble Lord's molier, under
the title of Lady Caher would also be manifest to the
Jury, when they were infoimed that the Noble Lady,
prior to her marriage with the Earl of Glengall, was
the Lady Clare. The Learned Counsel was aware tbit
one must make a little sacrifice to one's feelings, to
enjoy a jest on a friend; but when wit was made the
instrument to circular: slander, and to pour poison into
the incest' of the most intimate connexions and friends
of the subject of that wit, the crime magnified itself into
one of the utmost enormity. The defendant, in the
present instance, had not coofined himself to slander
the Noble Lord, however, but bad also poured bah
hit venom upon the Lady Glengrill. The Learned
COnnsel then proceeded to read a paragraph [foes the
Aree Newspaper of December 11, 145, which eras
roasted--
(n The Smuggkr, by Lady Glengsa.)
Mr. Scarlett also 'read- different passages from the de-
fendant's papers, of the 21st Aug. and 27th Nov. 1825
some io prose and some in verse, all relating to the
Noble Eid or his mother. Ile nest read the following
paragraph from the Age of Sunday, J .n. 2St, 1826 :
" We have heard Lord Glengall say that Mrs. Chat-
terley, who has refused hit LOADlliiip'e part, is pest
It, toncluded the Learned Counsel, she Jury could
reconcile the propriety of i Newspaper publisher's
being allowed to cast the imputation of " liar" on the
son, and stigmatising the mother as a "smuggler," with
impunity, then they would declare the defendant not
gully ; but he could not but consider it as s< tampering
laitfr the Court, to expect. reel for a moment, that the
duty would nature such a verdict; he would, therefore.
sit down in full assurance, that after they had maturely.
filicted on the case, they would see the necessity of
&hewn% their sense. of the infamy of the defendant's
conduct, by returning g suitable verdict.
The Proprietor ship of %he Age was then proved by a
.peron from the Stamp Office.
William Manninghan examined—Had been long ac-
quainted with Lady Glengall; her name previously to
her marriage was Lady Clare. Witness had no doubt
that the libel contained in The Age Newspaper for Sun-
day, December 11, 1825, referred to her.

four libels, which he should read to them, ob►erving at

screening themselves behind Mr. Richards from per-
sonal punishment. It was unfortunate that there was
no means of getting at the author ' • for if he filed a Bill

Mr. Baouorsam then addressed the Jury for the de.

Friend, is his opening, had some strange misgivinfs as
to the result, for he had abstained from all the topics of
blighted fame and character, usually urged in such ac•

The prisoner pleaded not guilty.
Tice prosecutor stated, that on the night of the

deavoured to help him out, in a story which was ob-
viously preconcerted between them.]
After a few minutes consultation, the Jury found the
prisoner Guilty.
John Henry Farley was indicted capitally for break•
