BATH.
Libel Suit.

BATH, January 2. A suit of unusual interest
has been before the supreme court in Bath, during
the last three days of the present session. Geo.
G. Stacy VS.. Portland Publishing Company for
libel in the publication of the following paragraph
in the Daily Press, Sept. Gath, 1875;
"a reliable gentlemen of Hallowell informs us
that Secretary of State Stacy was recently ar
rested in that city for drunkenness and disturb
ance ten dollar bill quieted the affair."
The damages are put at $4,000. The test-
mopy was introduced by plaintiff tending to show
that the paragraph was inspired by express malice
on the part of Col. 2. A. Smith, then connected
with the Press. Defence was based on the ground
that the allegations were true and suitable for
publication. Much testimony was introduced
respecting the general reputation Of the plaintiff
in respect 10 in temperance. The case wa. given
to the jury at five ?. NJ. Had not agreed at the
hour of adjournment.
Trains Delayed.
Trains on the Maine Central were three hours
late on account Of the snow storm.
