The prospects Of another Tichborno case, to
extend inevitably over many weeks, and perhaps
to end in an abortive result, is, says the London
Times one which can hardly be contemplated
with patience. We have never understood why
the claimant Was not arraigned at the Old Bal
ley, like any one else, Immediately after the
nonsr1it and his arrest on the 9Th of last March,
when his trial would have been a mere sequel OF
tho civil action, and might have been conducted
With the least possible loss of time. Unfor-
tunately, though it was at once decided to
prosecute him at the expense Of the Coy
ernment, it seems to have been assumed that
any such prosecution must be got up On scale
commensurate with the prodigious space which
his cause has already occupied in the public
mind. Not content with endeayoring to provo
him guilty Of actual perjury in some material
part Of his deposition, the advisers Of the Grown
apparently determined to prove him guilty Of
perjury in falaifying his own =. identity,
and of forgery in counterfeiting the
name of Rosar Charles Tichbocne. At all
events, criminal proceedings against him were
postponed indefinitely, meantime it became
neeessary to release linn on bail, Since that
