THE O'BRINICBMSITRY LIBEL.  The hearing of the application for a new trial in the action brought by O'Brien against Lord Salisbury, for slander spoken at Watford, was resumed on Thursday. Mr. Gulley culled attention to Mr. O'Brien's explanation of some expressions he had used. The plaintiff stated that he meant to convey that in days gone by the people had no alternative except crime, but now it was different, owing to the National League having provided better resources. Mr. Bingham followed in support of the motion. He should, he said, be only too willing to think that Lord Salisbury, if he had gone into the witness box, would have attempted in some way, to explain the words he had used, but the people to whom the speech was delivered had nothing before them but the words themselves, without any explanation.
