COLOAIIAX LOAN.
TILE LORD CHANCELLOR said he wished to correct a
tialstepresentation which bad gone abroad, with respect
t, a tnotion made by Mr. Hart on a former day. It was
on 11,e part of an individual, praying that mosey in the
,handy of certain other individuals might not be .sent
'abroad, to what was called the Colombian Loan; be.
caFse Cie authority of Mr. Zi who had contracted that
40an, had been disavowed. His Lordship said he was
represera.ml as hating heard the motion in his private
troosts,aften the rising of the Court; the fact was, it was
by mere accident it had been beard in his private room.

.Hart•:pressed.to make his metiers; spon Which he told
the Learned Conned, that sinless he followed him into
his roans ho-000kt soot attend to him. His Lordship
added, that apers hearing the motion, what he said was,
,that witlsoiettis stating, one way or the other, what

The defendant thole aildretwell did /Cry. H. said Ybe

one of the greatest philosophers of. the age in Which he
lived; he had laboured itteesittititly to root out the growth
'of superstition, and sow the IVAN of philosophic wisdom
end divine truth through the ire of *dente and 'nature.
Jie would show that to support this doctrine if libel the
law had been perverted by Judge, and Juries were in-
fltieuced under their persuasion to perjure themselves.
There was ho standard of -Uniformity is theological
opinions among men: as 'Well' might you restrain the
tides or turbulence of the "Ocean, as well might you
change or alter the seasons, as to stem public opinion
and public discussion en these subjects:The Attorney and
%Olin tor General only supported these prosecutions from
Interested motives. The victims of Anticbristian per-
ircutions like these rejoiced only in proportion to the
number of martyrs who distinguish themselves by bra-
in; raidsinent in support df these philosophic dec-
irtnes.• He meant to defend *very sentace of the work,

of the highest inoral-chareder; and that the Attor-
ney General, and not be, Wm the evil disposed perion
who should have been set oat in this information. He
called cm the Judy to look fur proofs that be was an evil
disposed persos, and contended, that in the absence of
such evidence, the verdict of guilty against him would

been sold when it was published in America. -By what
evidence could it be proved that this was a blaspbeinous:
libel, other than by saying irwas expressly scrim.e against
the Holy Scriptures? This was the point lot:their con-
sideration—what was a libel ?• Every book was a libel.

Lord Chief Jvastantra-Yeer bete ashen upon you toi
tell ;h. Jury more thaw yoeoreauthorisrd.
The Jury concurred with his Lordshipoliatin being
sworn opon that book they admitted the truth.
The defendant proceeded. If the Jury wete swots
to pronounce this book a libel, be bad been prejodged
before being heard. He should prove the truth of the
Bible was no part of the law. There could be no such
law as would compel men to admit the troth of any
system of religion. No man could claim a property in
religion, and therefore there could be no principle of.
law recognising the protection.of that in which no map I
had any property or right. `Vie Legislature had
sanctioned the denial of the Godhead of the Trinity.
The Act was expressly intitnled, " An Act to relieve
those who denied or impunged the truth of the Holy
Trinity."
',Oen Cater Justice—No such thing ; it is an Act
passed slaty to reline from penalties incurred under a
former Instate.
The defendant persisted that these were the words of
the preamble of the Act in question. Thns did the
Legislature theineelves permit the impanting the troth
of the doctrine of the Godhead of the Trietty, which the
Attorney General told the Jury was part and parcel of
the law of the land, and that it was a libel so to im-
pugn. He contended there could be no law but what
was calculated to preserve moral justice and moral right
between man and man. He dared the Attorney General
to prove any thing immoral in that book, he defied Min
to object to it on any other ground than because it did not
preach up tithes or taxes,because it did not license oppres-
sion and violation of public law, and justice,. by
supporting public robbery and poldic corruption.

;loom) Cater Justice-14s it is, I tell you so.
The defendant proceeded and said, that to tell the
Jury this book• was a libel, was just as much as to say
this libel is a book. Would prosecuting this book put
it down I—never ; would 'prevent people selling or
purchasing ?...never ; it would occasion it to be more
sought after; his publisher would reprint it tens•of
thousands. ltjhad sold and 'would sell. MY respecta-
ble man • applying to g: tespe,ctablelloOkseller, might
have this or any other book of the same kind without
his being proseceted. The freedom bf the British Press
was above the power of Princes. Force of arms would
never stop'or subdue it. The more the Attorney General
prosecuted the more these works would be disseminated
and read. The freedom of the mind relating to public
peace, moralsor prophecy, could never be pat down bylaw.
It was against all pnoci pies of law,equity,er justicestoat.

and no Legislature, and no idw could usurp the privily of
restraining them. Could the Jury find the defendadt
guilty of maliciously sellingto a perms who maliciond-
ly bought, for the purpoje of subjecting- him to this
creation ? He pronounced the Attorney-General a

snletnit to the direction or the nodding of the Judge.
It was well known that Judges could do morale liberty
of the *subject, for to the nod of the..flolge Juries
were known to give their verdicts, rather than by at-
tending to the evidence of philosophic truth. He
then proceeded to read the book, beginning with thepre-
fare.

The defendant having gone on with his reading unti
about one o'clock. •

The Seep Chins Jones observed, the only object o
the defendant's reading this publication, this visibly for the
purpose of defaming the Christian religion, which it was his
Lordshii's duty to prevent.

One of the. Jury rejoined, that as the evident object
of the Attendant in reading the libel was to defame
the Christian religion, their winds were suftleientlymade

The defendant persisted in going on with the reading,
contending it was the essential ground of his defence, and
that 1t was impossible he could hue a fair trial if the Jary,
tanned to hear him out.
The LORD CRIMP JUSTICI said that unless the defendant
refrained from the course of defence which he had adopted,
after what had fallen from the Jury, his duty would be to
order him to stand committed.

The Jury, without hesitation, pronounced the defendant—
( )silty.
The Loan Cuter Joyner ordered him immediately to be
taken out of Court in custody.
The defendant, in the hands of the Tlpstaff, exclaimed—
" The Jury have not heard my defence ; I have not bad a
fair trial ; the Jury bate been packed."
CLARKE V. IIItaIIIIONT.
This was an action against Mr. Barber Beaumont,
Managing Director of the County Fire Office, for a libel
on the plaintiff respecting his alleged connecConwith
the Philanthropic Annuity Office. A full special Jury
did not appear, and no tales being prayed, the ease went
off for default of jurors. Another actiop by *PAW
plaintiff went off in a similar way. • .•

: -COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.,

• " TAMER 11. TIMQVAND. •
Mr. Sergeant VAUGHAN stated that this was an action
for a breach of contract. The plaintiff had been lt W-
eider, but by a decision of a case in the Court of Chan-
eery la his favour, he became entitled to a considerable
property, which he thought it advisable to invest in
the funds. The defendant was a stock broker, and had
been employed by the plaintiff to transact his business.
One of the clerks of the defendant had absconded from
his service with a earn of 5,300!., and, to recover this,
the present action was brought.
Mr. Janie, Fenn, a clerk to the Bank, produced exa-
mined copies of sales and trausfers from the books of the
Bak; the books were not permitted to be removed.
Under the date of the 22d October, 1919, Sir. Tuber
wag stated to have bought of Jucolo Clements, the sum
of 3510/: commis. On the 2Stlt of February, 1821, he
made a purchase in the Navy Five per Cents. of 5001.
from the same person. On the 29th July, 1821, a similar
purchase to the amount of 1000/. troth Martha Johnson.
Messrs. Dower and Talbot made the transfer as her at-
torneys. On the 19th April, 3821, the plaintiff made a
purchase of 1511. 16s. of Long Annuities, from Natha-
niel Thomson. On the same day the plaintiff sold out
of the Four per Cents: the sum of 6004 to Sophia Shir-
ley, and 13u/. to David Gibson. On the 26th Febroary,
I te22, the plaintiff sold 90!. bong Annuities, to Robert
Barker; and on the 42t1rApril, Mt. the plaintiff sold
out from the. Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities. the
suns of 70651. to Thomas Greenwood, of the Stock Ex,

dated 25th May,' left, porpertiag to be a receipt from

Cross-examined.—On some of these occasions Staard's
right to indentify was confirmed 'by a broker of the
name of Bonner; it wu mot necessary that the broker
of the seller should identify the person, for another
broker's identification would be equally receivable.

plaintiff of 90/. to R. Barker, and -on the same day ati-1
other transfer of 611. 16s. to the defendant; there was
no identification of the last transaction.

Bever knew that Simard received any part of the com-
mission. .
1 The plaintiff's case closed here.
Mr. Srrjeant LENS, for the.defendant, said, the was
a question as to which of two innocent parties should
suffer for the fraudulent conduct of a third. He ad-
, twitted, that dm defendant had as late at July, 1820, ap-
peared as the person identifying the plaintiff on his
sales of stocks, but it appeared, that after that time the
plaintiff' was g Ily identified by Stuard. There was
no proof that the defendant had received the commis-
sion of Alto transactions; for though Miss Taskes bad at
first said be did, yet she afterwards explained the asser-
tion by saying, that the commission was deducted from
the produce of the sales and purchase.. In fact, tbe
money was received by Stuard, although as not being
a broker himself, he was obliged to use defendant's
name.
.51r. William )ley; the uncle of Stuard, bad known
the plaintiff's family many years; he remembered hav-
ing been asked by.the plaintiff to tall Stuard to call on
him; the plaintiff then said lie wanted *nerd to do
some business for him; witness had thanked the plain-
tiff for employing Stuard, and putting a trifle into his
pocket; this might have been in 1819. Stuard lived in
tioxton town, and sometimes visited the plaintiff, who
resided'very near him ; Stuard was then about 22 years
of age; had never seen the plaintiff pay Stuart! any
money; did not know that the plaintiff took any means
to follow Stuart! when he absconded, though he was ad-
vised to do so ,• when Stuard absconded, the plaintiff
said he had taken away all his money.
Cross-examined.—Had never recommended the .tie•
(cadent "to the plaintiff as a very respectable broker ;
Stuard had lived with the defendant nine yews, and Lad
transacted his stock business for him.

Mr. John Bodge, clerk to Mr. Furber, knew that
Stuard bad done business for the plaintiff; bad never
heard that from .any one but Stuard until after be ab.
sconded ; hid heard the plaintiff's brother say sub's.
quently to that event, that he had cautioned the plaintiff
pot to trustSttustd ; to this Mks 'fasker replied, that
they never expected Stuard would, serve them so, as
they had known him from his infancy; two of the
plaintiffs sons called in the afternoon of the same day
on which this conversation took place, and spoke in
very disparaging terms of Stoned, and expressed their
wonder that the plaintiff hell employed him.
Cruss-examined.—When. Mies Tasher was :here en
the morning the himhe were 'referred to. did not heir
the defendant say on that moroing, ssoolluding to •the
transaction of tire 12th of April, that he was not there
then, nor did lie hear Miss 'rasher say, " but, Sir, we
inquired for you," nor did witness confirm any• such
assertion.

Re-examined.—He was acquainted with the defend-
ant's hooks from having assisted him in Waking them
np; there was no entry of the receipt of commission by
the defendant in those books.
Mr. Serjeant VAlltillAN replied.
Lerd Chief Justice DALLAS recapitulated the evi-
dence, and the Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages
MOM This case occupied Iles Cohn until neatly
