Important Insurance suit.

q The libel suit of the knIckerbocksr Life
Insurance Company against Joseph Il. Eccle
SINE, editor and proprietor of the New York
tnarrUTttsT, IN the New York Superior Court
Tor $50. damages, decision has beer rendered
t"T the defendant. Judge Freedman said
- he defendant thus not only denies all III
diiegdtlOns OF the plaintiff so far IL NAV be
come necessary for him 10 deny them, but IN
sd1ilon thereto he presents facts and circum
stances ~aIch stand forth uncontradicted, and
WIN b. a. the case stands before me. almost
COnCluSIvely prove that no such malice OF evil
Intent towards the pisIntIf, as has Deem charg-
ed against him, even existed, In point OF fact.
The defendant shows that he made the state
ments complained of in the course of his busI
ness, believing them TO be true, and that they
contain no libel; for libel consists of g mali
CIous publication. After carefully sitting and
duly weighing the evidence placed before me
by both sides, L can come 10 no other conclu-
sion, and think the defendant is entitled to his
discharge.
If the rule in n case like the one Def ore me-
were otherwise, no newspaper could give to
the public statistical inf Jrmation relating 70
any corporation or company withou; becoming
involved In endless litigation. The slightest
Insccuracy, 10 which the ingenuity Of cOun sci
could attach an injurious meaning in the re-
hottest degree, would be seized upon and used
az the foundation for a long libel suit, and
portion OF our press might be thus deferred In
order 10 escape the annoyance, trouble, and
expense IN this respect, from giving the public
such general information concerning the orsa nj
zaiIon, inside workings, operations and profits
OF large and wealthy corporations and compa-
MES. relying for their support, mostly upon
popular favor and the patronage Of the working
Glasses. which the people at large have a right
TO demand, and which they cannot very well
receive through any other chan mel except a free
fearless and independent press.

caterer. deceased who baqueathed his person a 4
and real estate TO his widow and daughter On
the fltlgantS assembling in the Court il was
stated mat although the Surrogate had not
written out a formal judgment, his opinion was
that '.the Virginia Watson was NOT the same

Judgment would be in effect a finding against
those who opposed the will and a confirm
lion OF the probate. The expense must he said
be paid out of the estate.
Aftrr the adjudication a wrangIe occurred
among the interested parties. Mrs. Watson,
the real widow Sf the testator, and her dauphtar
appeared TO think il a hardship that they
should De compelled 10 defray the expense OF
the SUIT, when any OF the opponents could have
ssceItaln|d that the deceased resided in the
family of Mr. Perit, II. New York many years
before he was Of age 70 marry any nepr.ss in
Virginia During the trial IL was Observed that
ali me witnesses lor the Will were light mulat-
TOES or nearly white, showing that there rs a
social distinction, even among the IA q of Ham.
while, on the other hand, the friends of nor
Polly watson, who saw n scar on the knee of
the deceased whom she thereby recognized As
