The English law Of libel h.

The English law of libel has been
recently amended by Parliament. The
new amendment makes the proceed
ings OF public meetings, if accurate,
privileged publications, in case the
meeting is one of public interest and
concern. Hitherto the newspaper
publisher in a prosecution for libel
was compelled to prove that the mat
ter complained of was published for
the public benefit; now it would ap-
pear to be that the plaintiff must
prove the matter not to be of public
benefit. In many cases this might cas-
lily be done.
