Interesting Libel Suit Connected There.
With

In the Court Of Exchequer, London, re:
Gently, an action was heard before Afr. Baron
Martin, brought BY the keeper Of the refreah-
ment rooms at the Peterborough strtion Of
the Great Northern Railway, against the reg
i6scrcd proprietor of the Daily 2a'egruph
newspapers: .
On the 4th of August last, the Prince of
Wales was returning from his visit to Hali-
fax when he stopped with his suite at Peter
borough and pa1took o. some soup. On the
following morning, in the report In the col
ulnns Of the Daay as!sfsraph Of the Princes
which was the libel complained Of: st.At oh.
er stations the train either stopped or moved
slowly through until it came to Peterborough,
when the Prince n1ighted and took SONG re-
ffeshment, It is to be hoped that the soup sery-
ed was not the horrible pure Of horse beams
which is retailed at that station at is plate
to her Majesty's lege.", The plaintiff, on
defendant: issir: In the report of theP1ince's
visit to the North, published In ,to.day's
telegraph, read {copy Of the aboye desc1ip-
tionl VIII you, IN common fairness, allow
me- to oppose to this strange statement the
logic Of facts? Tea and other light refresh
ments had been provided for the Toyal party,
but the Princes request tor something
prise. The soup supplied was that usually re-
tailed at the station. His Royal Highness, af.
ter pArtaking of it, desired to be assisted
second time. On the 9Th OF. August the de-
tendant inserted in the Telegraph the follow
ing remarks: Mr. Wilkins, the keeper of the
retreshment ROOMS at the Peterborough sta-
tion, requests US to state that the soup
nhich he sells at is. plate is not made from
horse beams, Us eurnised By our reporter on
lis way from Halifax. And then was added
the Plaintiffs explanation. The plaintitf's
attorney then wrote letter Of, remonstranco
10 the defendant, to which the editor thus
replied: The editor Of the Oath Tsss7raM
hegs to inform MI. Taylor that should Mr.
Wilkins be able to forward to the office some
Of the soup specially alluded to, he win he
happy to ;place 1t in the hands Of an: ana-

It'll accordingly brought an action; and til I,is
evidence asserted that the soup WaaT GRAVY
soup.;: He, had never heard Of bean sonn.
Mr. Sergeant Ballantinc, for the defense. con.
tended that the passage in question did not
amount to a libel; that 1t was essential to
the interests Of the public that the refresh.
mcnt rooms at stations should be Yisilantly
,sand the observations made by the
reporter were nothing more than fun com
