PORTLAND Me- FRIDAY MORNING. FEBRUARY 49, 1863

and will notice their dates, subject matter,
meaning and purpose, bearing in mind that
the defendants are not on trial for those publi-
cations, and that they can only be used to
show the dnimus with which the defendant
published the article in suit Ii the plaintiff
has been aggrieved by those articles, he must
try that question in another suit; he cannot
do il in this.
The opportunity the defendants had and
employed to damage the plaintiff by the OBJ
noXious publication-such as the extent of
the circulation of the "Daily Times" the To-
calities in which it was read, and the standing
OF the paper-are proper for you to consider
in estimating the damages plaintiff sustained !;
so also are the plaintiffs standing in the COM
munity-his official position, if he has one, his
probable future damages, and especially the
injury 10 his feelings, and the peace aud har-
mony of his family. IL you find that the de-
PENDANTS manifested a wanton and malicious
spirit, you are authorized to give the plaintiff
exemplary or punitory damages.
The case is now with you, and doubt not
you will render such a verdict as the law and
evidence require.
Political topics have been alluded to; let
these be banished from your jury room. For
the sake of the fair fame of our dearly loved
and loyal state Of Maine, if for no other con-
sideration, let it not be said, that while she is
pouring out her blood and treasure without
measure or stint to enforce the laws of the
Federal government, the temple of Justice
within her own borders has been defed
and the rights of her citizens violated by a
spirit of disloyalty strongly akin to that her
devoted sons are battling against on other
soil.
