--HOLYWELL. -.- -I
HOLYWELL. I THE WHITFORD SMITHFIELD.-Tile second sale of fat and other stock, carriages, harness, poultry, &c., took place in the village on Tuesday last by Messrs Freeman and Strong, and proved a most decided success, the proceeds of the sale amount- ing to nearly JE600, a fact which of itself speaks volumes in praise of the now established Whitford Smithfield.

M. Evans, and carried unanimously, that the house surgeon's salary for the current year, and afterwards be JE105 per annum. The services rendered to the institution for the past many years by Mr Edward Jones, Pendre House, Holywell, were this day duly con- sidered, and it was proposed by Mr Thomas Owens seconded by the Rev. J. B. di Pietro, and carried unanimously-" That the best thanks of the sub- scribers and benefactors be given to Mr Edward Jones for the very valuable services he has ren- dered and continues to render to the dispensary, as honorary secretary thereto its prosperous condi- tion, undoubtedly being mainly owing to the inces- sant care and attention Mr Jones has ever paid to the interests of the institution. And the meeting further expresses a hope that a life that has hitherto done so much in promoting the public weal, may long be spared, and that Mr Jones may soon be restored to his usual health." Resolved that a copy of the foregoing be sent to Mr Jones. BOARD OF GUARDIANS, FRIDAY, January 24, Pfeseut-The Right Hon. Lord Mostyn (chair- maB), A. Cope, Esq. (vice-chairman), G. P.

Mr Doyle's Report.—Copies of Mr Doyle's reports upon Pauperism and Expenditure" in his district for 1871-72, were submitted to the board.

M. Evans rose and said that as a young guardian he begged to congratulate Lord Mostyn, their noble chairman, on the highly satisfactory way in which the busi- ness of the board was carried out. Here was a report from their inspector suggesting the propriety of several measures being carried out by Board of Guardians, all of which were actually in practice at their own board. (Hear, hear.) The Appeal Cases.- The Clerk next intimated to the board the results of the railway appeal cases, which were highly satisfactory to the union.

OSWESTRY. 15TH RIFLE VOLUNTEERS--On Saturday (this day), Lady Frances Lloyd, will at four o'clock, at the Victoria Rooms, distribute the shooting prizes to those members of the corps, who have won them. Captain Stanley Leigh ton, has kindly in- vited those ladies and gentlemen who gave the prizes to be present, as well as several of the tradesmen of the town. Captain Leighton has in- vited the mayor and the members of the corps to dine with him at the Wynnstay Arms after the ceremony. WYNNSTAY ARMS.—The gentlemen who are best known by the name41 Commercials," will be pleased to know that Mr Murless, jun., son of Mr Marless, of the Wynnstay Arms, Wrexham, has this week commenced the conducting of this important hotel. For many years daring the tenancy of the late Mr David Lloyd, the Wynnstay at Oswestry was con- sidered A.I. The name of Marlen is a guarantee that no expense er trouble will be spared to make the hotel as popular with the trading and farming classes as in any previous period of its history. We give Mr Marless a Jhearty welcome in coming to reside among us, and hope that his exertions in connection with his wife will be crowned with that success they so richly deserve. PETTY SESSIONS, FRIDAY (Yesterday).—Before the Mayor (J. Jones, Esq.), the ex-Mayor (C. <1. Bayley, Esq.), B. Roberts, Esq., George Owen Esq., J. Thomas, Esq., and A. Roberts, Esq. A Nice Paiper.—John Rees was charged with making a false statement for the purpose of obtam- ng relief. The prisoner denied making a false tatement. Mr Bull prosecnted on behalf of the [ncorporation. Mr Davies, relieving officer, proved the case. The prisoner seemed very ignorant, and in the coarse of his defence admitted the charge. It appeared that at the time he asked for relief he had between £3 and 94 in his possession. He was sentenced to seven days' imprisonment Drunkenness.-Samuel Parry, for being drunk and disorderly, was fined 23. 6d. and costs. Thos. Lloyd, who did not appear, was fined 10s., or in default fourteen days' hard labour. William Murphy, Is., or seven days. Ann Finn, 10s., or fourteen days. A Serious Offence.—Wva.

Obstructing the Police.-Francis Morgan was charged with obstructing the police in the execu- tion of their duty. Fined JE2, or in default one month. Pursuit of Game.—Joseph Morris was charged with trespassing in pursuit of game. Henry Roberts and another witness proved the case. Fined X2; or, in default, two months' imprisonment.
CORRESPONDENCE.
CORRESPONDENCE. All letters intended for publication must comply with the following conditions I.-They must be on public questions only, and not personal in character further than is necessary for the discussion of the subject. II.—They must be written carefully and concisely- on one side of the paper only-ready for the press, as we have not time at our disposal to re-write correspondence, and do not wish to publish effusions in the garb in which they are sometimes presented, nor space available for long rambling letters. We cannot hold ourselves responsible for the opinion of our correspondents, leaving our letter columns' open for the free ventilation of opinions by all parties THE RHOSYMEDRE THEATRE. Sia,-Many of your readers have already noticed that placards have been very freely issued in this locality, announcing that the above theatre would be under the especial patronage of the Good Templars" on Thursday night, I would solicit the esteemed privilege through the medium of your well-circulated paper to contradict the statement, and say that the Good Templars disapprove of this theatre, and would advise the manager to be more careful in the future how he announces his patrons. W.C.T. Cefn Bychan. THE MOLD LIBERAL DINNER. SIR,-In your last publication I observe that at the dinner given by the Liberals to their members, the Rev. Roger Edwards expressed a wish to exchange pulpits with the Vicar of Mold. Real and genuine liberalism goes a great way, and I hope that the rev. gentleman is prepared also to change pulpits with every minister in the district not even excluding the Roman Catholic priests, so that they may hold forth in his chapel, and he may proclaim to the world his liberality in ad- ministering high mass in the Catholic Chapel.—I am, sir, yours most obediently, OBSERVER. THE NEW LICENSING ACT, &c. SIR,-With reference to the letter in your last week's issue under the above subject, by a Good Templar, stating the necessity of a more vigilant search into the nature and provisions of the above Act, I may say, I agree with his suggestion, but! would wish to remind your readers that Good Templary discipline would rather persuade the inebriate to see the error of his ways by more gentle means. Our lodges are not content with summoning or curtailing the hours for the sale of strong drinks, no we look up to a loftier example. When the man with an unclean spirit came to Christ, our Saviour did not apply stronger chains or limit the hours of his liberty, no, but totally expelled the unclean spirit from out of him that he may be safe at large to walk at what hour of the night he would. But yet our success much depends in getting the thin end of the wedge in first, which is a obvious symptom of our coming victory; therefore I think it is our duty to embrace those privileges which the law has already granted as. I should like to know do not the policemen intend doing more towards adding to our comfort. )Ve see violations of the Act continually, viz.— Wedding parties entertained at public-houses on Sunday afternoon at four o'clock, landlords locking drunken women in their stables, rows, wifebeating, and offences from drunkenness in every corner of our streets. How is it that these officials do not see these ? In country districts they have but little else to do but watch these haunts of drunk- ards. We nght for those who will fight for us, and I thifck if some improvement is not soon made, it much behoves us to discuss the said question at our lodges.—Yours traly, ANOTHER TEMPLAR. Raabon, January 29th, 1873. THE CLERKS' AND ASSISTANTS' DINNER AT MOLD. SIR,-I observe in your last impression a letter headed as above, and signed Welshman." He asks why do the clerks have bigwigs," to pre- side ? I answer, To accomplish the very object for which the dinner is held." To show one another that from the bigwigs" down to the humblest of their own number class distinction can be done away with, and that a kindly feeling does exist between patrons and employers and employed if it can only be brought oat, and that this "annual jcllification" effects that obj ect no one can deny. The secend paragraph of the letter tells as what the writer is told-let him believe it if he likes, but I thought seeing was believing, and I advise him to wait. Mr Hooke has a few admirers in Mold, and some of that very select party are rather too zealous on his behalf. The cap fits 11 Welshman," whose remarks are calculated to deceive the public, and do an injustice to those who really did found the Reading Room. The Reading Room was tried before Mr Hooke came to Mold, but failed, and at the time it was thought another trial might be made, and because Mr Hooke was one of the first to join this second movement, he is not to have the credit for the whole work. His first individual effort was a small class in his vestry room, but which subse- quently became the Young Men's Improvement Society, but had nothing to do with the Reading Room. The latter had its real start in the public meeting, called by some of the interested parties" (clerks and assistants). Possibly "Welshman" may wish the parties success, but if he puts his wishes into a practical shape he will start by refraining from eulogizing those who already have had a good deal more than they deserve.—I am, air, yours, &c., ONE WHO KNOWS. I THE OVERTON ROAD. SIR-In your last week's issue 1 see a report by your borough surveyor of the state of the Overton road to the King's Mill. He was, I believe, in- formed on the 31st December 1872, that the Turnpike trust would expire with the old year, consequently the road to King's Mill would fall due to the borough of Wrexham, and that it would require immediate attention. However, the road was left unnoticed, or at least uncared for a fortnight-then the borough surveyor reports it as being neglected, and well he may. You well know, Mr Editor, what a very trying time it has been for roads for more than twelve months-they required daily attention instead of fortnightly. I will not judge so harshly of my neighbours as your boroagh surveyor. Perhaps his authority is limited, which may account for his saying the road was neglected.—Yours faithfully, ONE INTERESTED. January 23, 1873. Srit,-Tradoomen of Wrexham must as well as any other class of gentlemen require recreation occasionally after their close confinement to busi- ness, and as the weather has been for a long time dreary and wet they could not be expected to ven- ture out, but the wiater is passing away, and that delightful tima of the year beautiful spring," will soon take its place. Many of these gentlemen have horses and traps, and when the fine sunny spring comes it will be pleasing to see them take oat their wives and children. Before starting off they would probably consider which way to take. In my opinion a more delightful road they could not well choose than the one to Overton. Along the whole of this route all the turnpike gates have been taken down. There are also gates taken off the Penley road; thanks to Mr Barratt, the sur- veyor of the Wrexham and Ellesmere Turnpike Roads, for his perseverance in getting rid of these gates.' Mr Barratt has been surveyor of these roads for the last 20 or 21 years, during which time he has worked off the he ivy debt which was on them when he first took them, and this is the first road in the district having the gates abolished. Mr Barratt has left these roads in a good state, and appears to have obtained good lasting material for them. In doing all this he must have conferred a great convenience and benefit to the public generally, and he ought not be allowed to leave this occupation without receiving some extra re- muneration for his services as a mark of merit ani recompense.—Yours, A TRAVELLER. RUTHIN INSTITUTE. I Siit,-The report, which appeared in your last issue, of the entertainment given on the 17th inst., in aid of the funds ef the Ruthin Institute, is, in its denunciation of the trial, not correct. I admit, at once, that the representation was not perfect; for what company of amateurs ever pro- duced anything perfectly? To say, however, that the anticipated enjoyment of the audience was not in any way realised," that the performers had evidently neglected to bestow sufficient attention to the piece," and that any notion of stage management had been entirely overlooked," is, simply, untrue. Applause is generally considered a sign that the applaaders are pleased. It is an indisputable fact, that on the occasion in question the audience frequently expressed applause. How, then, bear- ing in mind that fact, anyone could venture to say, that the audience were displeased, I cannot under- stand, without supposing on the part of the author a malicious intention, and it is my belief, that he had such an intention. Weie the report in question only circulated among those present at the entertainment, it would be unnecessary for me to write this letter, but as, unless contradicted, it will be received for the truth by people, who have heard nothing else of the matter, it is but just that my acceunt should be dispersed as widely as the other, and I trust you will insert this in your next paper. Thus, then, the case stands: I assert, and can prove, that the trial was tolerably accurately repre- sented and received with general applause and in the face of this statement it is for anyone who says that it was a failure to prove it so, and this he can only do by recounting specially the mistakes committed, and the names of the unsatisfied auditors. Until he does so, I hope the public will believe my account, rather than his; and as this is a question, not of argument, but of testimony, I must ask you not to insert anything that may be sent to you anonymously. Your correspondent omitted to say that over £ 8 was handed to the institute.—Yours obediently, R. JONES EDWARDS. (One of the performers.) ILLIBERAL LIBERALISM. SIR,-I was present at the Liberal banquet at Mold, and was a patient listener to all the speeches. There was one amongst them upon which I will venture to offer a few observations, and that was the speech of a Mr Daniel Owens, who was chosen to respond to the toast of The Working Men." I never saw nor heard of Mr Daniel Owens before last Wednesday night; but I was then told that he is a journeyman tailor, that feeling the deficiencies of his early education, and determined to conquer them, he entered himself of the college at Bala, and maintained himself there for two years by his labor. All honor to him But permit me to say this of Bala College, that whatever its tutors may teach of the classics or of mathematics, judging from the speech of Mr Daniel Owens, they trouble themselves little as to the inculcation of good manners! Let it be re- membered that there were present at the banquet amongst the other guests Lord Kichard Grosvenor, Sir Robert Cunliffe, Mr West, and the son of the Premier. The burden of the speech of Mr Daniel Owens was-that whilst some men gloried in their blood, God endowed men with brains without dis- tinction of caste, rather, that he compensated the poor man by the superior riches of his intellect. His speech was a watery dilution of the favorite song of Robert Burns, A man's a man for a' that." In working out his proposition I am bound to say he made some good hits, and if his speech had been delivered at a working men's club it would have been one of singular appropriateness but the devil of satire was abroad amongst the audience at Mold, and composed as it was of work- ing men chiefly, all the hits of the speech were taken up by the audience and directed with raptu- rous applause against the blue bloods at the top of the table. Now, all this I say was in grossly bad taste. First of all, in its spirit it was based on the assumption that the blue bloods were arroga- ting to themselves some superiority over the working man. What foundation was there for such an assumption ? None at all! Indeed, the ap- pearances were all the other way for some of these men had gone out of their way on that occasion to mingle with the working men on terms of equality. Bat false as the premises ware, the conceit of the exhibition was the most prominent element of its bad taste. It is a too common thing for men who have good heads on their shoulders and who know it to make, for strangely enough vanity is often the accompaniment of ability and even of genius-to make I say a vulgar brag of it and flaunt it unnecessarily in the faces of the blue bloods as who should say, I am as good a man as you, for whilst you boast of your wealth and descent I boast of my brains." I say there is as much vulgarity in such an exhibition as there would be in the arrogant assumption of superiority in wealth or high descent. Modesty as much becomes the consciousness of brains as it does of wealth and proud lineage. Again, I think this style of speech is based on a very ignorant assumption that in truth no man of brains, if he give good proof of it, has reason to complain of his neglect by the •• upper ten." You know me very well, and you know that I have a very small acquaintance amongst the aristocracy; that the only knowledge I have of great men is through my book-shelves. Judging from this experience, I feel bound to say that I fiud in all the books of Noble authors" I have ever read, the fullest and heartiest recognition of all the men who are entitled to take rank in the commonwealth of intellect. For instance, to-day only I fiuisbed the reading of a book written by the Earl of Pembroke, and a charming book it is. Last week I real a book, written by the Hon. Emily Eden, and in all my reading, I give the lords a tnrn now and then. But in none of these books do I find any of the snobbishness of rank— certainly none of the snobbery of intellect. On the contrary, the amplest and heartiest recognition of the lights of English literature, with no previous enquiry, whether your favorite author is patrician or plebeian. Let Mr Daniel Owens give proof of the brains he brags of by making his mark amongst the intellects of his country and he will soon find he is as free of the commonwealth as though His blood Had crept through scoundrels ever since the flood. One other point and I have done; it is this: That no man has a right to assume that while society prides itself on its rank and wealth, God has asserted the equality of man in a law of com-I pensation by a larger endowment of brains to poor men. I believe this is a false position, and one based on pride and ignorance. The only natural advantage a poor man has over a rich man, that I know of, and that indeed is more the result of artificial life than a natural law, is in fecundity. In respect to brains, I say thete is no superi- ority. You know I am no tuft-hunter I never was and am not likely to be. I think the hereditary House of Lords in a free con- stitution an anomaly and an absurdity; but I mean to say that man for man, and in due pro- portion, there is as fair a distribution of brains amongst the aristocracy as amongst the mobocracy, of which latter I am one; that is to say, taking the population of these kingdoms at thirty millions and the aristocracy at say thirty thousand of these; that as thirty thousand is to near thirty millions, there is an equal if not a larger share of intellect amongst the thirty thousand than in the' residue of the thirty millions. As some proof of this, I will take the first thirty books that lie on the shelf next my elbow whilst I am engaged in the writing of this letter. They happen to be the poets, from Chaacer down to Swinburne, bat not including Twm yr Nant." A large majority of them are of high scholarly training; a lesser majority, but still a majority, are men of gentle blood. I have written you a long letter. I have no blue blood in my ve na, and am Too proud to care from whence I came." If the people of this country were divided into the two hostile ranks assumed by Mr Daniel Owens I should stand shoulder to shoulder with him and should wink at his manners; but I am persuaded we are not that there is a generous community of sentiment and feeling amongst the best men of all ranks in the republic of intellect-the cads of both sides of course being left out of the reckoning. Therefore feeling this I have thus gone out of my way to read a mild lecture to a good, but I believe slightly deluded fellow-man. Yours obediently, 24th January. A RADICAL.
ACTION FOR LIBEL ON BIRMINGHAMI…
ACTION FOR LIBEL ON BIRMINGHAM I SOLICITORS. At the last Worcester assizes, Messrs Hodgson and Son, solicitors, Birmingham, brought an action against Mr John Hickman, ironmaster, Desborough, Northamptonshire, to recover damages for libel and slander, and after the case had been partly opened by the counsel for the plaintiffs, at the suggestion of Mr Justice Quain, a reference was agreed upon, in consequence of the complicated nature of the proceedings involved in the action. In accordance with the arrangement then entered into, the cause came on before Mr Watkin Williams, M.P., the arbitrator, at the Westminster Palace Hotel, on Monday morning. Mr Huddleston, Q.C., and Mr J. O. Griffiths (instructed by Mr M. A. Fitter, Birmingham), appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr H. Matthews, Q.C., and Mr Sturge (instructed by Mr J. Cooper, London) for the defendant. The libel and slander consisted of extracts from letters written by the defendant, and reflecting very seri- ously upon the professional character and reputa- tion of Messrs Hodgson. In those letters it was stated that the charges were reiterated in the most offensive form, imputing that acts were done fraudulently, and with corrupt intentions, for the intention of defrauding persons who were interested in certain proceedings. The arbitration was brought to an abrupt termination on Tuesday, by the de- fendant agreeing to withdraw all pleas of fraud and justification of the charges they contained against the plaintiffs, and expressing regret at having made the charges. The defendants were willing to admit that defendant wrote and spoke in good faith, with the sole purpose of serving the estate of which he was assignee, and the award was agreed to be made in favour of the plaintiffs for a .nominal amount, defendant to pay the costs for the action, refer- ence, and award. In addition to this, we under- stand the defendant undertook to pay the sum of 9150. ■ l >ll— -■
THE APPALLING DISASTER IN…
THE APPALLING DISASTER IN THE CHANNEL. On Friday morning, an official enquiry into the loss of the Northfleet was opened at the Dover Custom House. Mr John Beveridge, the only survivor of those who were on deck at the time of the collision, stated that he heard the men of the watch shouting to the strange steamer fully five minutes before the crush took place. The rigging light of the Northfleet was burning brightly at the time. He shouted to those on board the steamer to stop, as there were 300 souls on board, but no notice was taken of the appeal. At the time of the collision the night was dark, the weather was wet, and the wind blew a moderate breeze off the land, but the shore lights could be distinctly seen. Captain Knowles never lost his self-possession, and his orders were obeyed by the officers and crew to the last. There were several rumours re- specting the identity of the steamer which cat down the Northfleet, bat nothing aathentic was known of her whereabouts. An influential com- mittee, headed by the Lord Mayor, with whom are associated the Sheriffs of London, Mr Morley, M.P., Mr G. Moffat, Mr G. Moore, and others, was formed at the Mansion House to receive sub- scriptions in aid of the bereaved relatives of the passengers and crew and of the destitute survivors from tha wreck. On Saturday afternoon, the sub- scriptions amounted to over 95,000. The Queen sent a letter to the Lord Mayor, expressing her sympathy with the survivors of the Northfleet catastrophe, and enclosing a cheque for JE200 towards the relief fand. The President of the Board of Trade, on Saturday, addressed the following telegram to the secretary of Lloyd's, Royal Exchange:—" I have her Majesty's com- mands to convey her heartfelt sympathy to the sarvivors of the Northfleet calamity. Her Majesty is specially solicitons as to the state of Mrs Knowles." The same message was telegraphed from the President of the Board of Trade to Mr John Patton, jun., the owner of the Northfleet, and the following reply was despatched by that gentleman to the President of the Board of Trade -11 The Qaeen's most gracious message has been communicated to Mrs Knowles and the other survivors of the Northfleet. Mrs Knowles is as well as can be expected, but still in great mental distress. She and they feel deeply grateful for her Majesty's sympathy. The survivors have been supplied with money and clothing, and are well cared for. Many of them are at the Sailors' Home, and others have returned to their friends, the rail- way fares having been supplied to them." Ten or a dozen persons who had taken passages in the Northfleet were saved by mere chance detention from a share in the fearfal calamity. Half a dozen intending emigrants, one of the number having a wife and family with him, were sent ashore at Gravesend last week in consequence of the crowded state of the vessel. They then thought it a great hardship to be left behind, and complained of the circumstance to the local justices and the captain who should have sailed with the Northfleet was compelled to resign the charge in consequence of a subpoena having been served upon him to give evidence as te the Bella part of the Tichborne case. At St. John's Mariners' Church, Dover, on Sunday evening, the Rev. W. Yate preached a sermon specially relating to the Northfleet. He took for his text St. Luke xiii. 1 5. Mr Yate likened the steamer which ran her down to a hell upon earth, and the officers he considered little less than murderers. The Times says it is difficult to understand that the steamer should have been so damaged as to sink immedi- ately. The damage done to the Northfleet was likely to be far greater than that done to the steamer. On the other hand, if she kept afloat for any time, it is wonderful that no one on the Northfleet, in the boats, or on shore should have known anything of the matter. Up to Monday, no steps had been taken to re- cover the bodies from the wreck, or to ascertain the amount of damage the ship has sustained, divers not having arrived. The channel is being searched for the wreck of the steamer, which is supposed to have sunk after the collision. The condition of the steamer Velasquez, now at Havre Roads, is receiving attention. The Mansion House committee met on Monday, and decided to meet daily. About eighty-five persons will, it is expected, come on the fund, for relief to each of whom it is proposed to give ten shillings per week for three weeks. Nearly £ 3,000 have been re- ceived, including the Queen's douation of JE200. The man Dixon, who was injured in the back! while endeavouring to rescue his wife and children from the Northfleet, made a statement on Monday. He was an engine-driver, and in consequence of the failure of the engineer who had been engaged was employed to work the condensing engine. He, with his wife and two little girls, occupied one bunk in the married people's quarters. When the collision occurred he was in his berth, and did not at first go on deck, not wishing to add to the con- fusion but finding the ship was sinking, he got his wife and children on deck, and supported them on the poop. Before he bad been there a minute the vessel had settled so much that the poop was on a level with the water. A wave struck him, and jammed him between the cabin sponson and the front of the poop; at the same time carrying his wife and children out of his arms. He could not tell whether they were hurt, but he never saw any more of them. The first thing he recollects is finding himself in the water with some rigging round his leg. He was conscious that unless he could get clear he must go down. He was in the midst of a number of poor people, who were dragging each other down as fast as possible. He managed to get clear of the tackle, and then foand that one side of him was disabled. At last he came in contact with one of the lifeboats, bottom upwards. There were five others holding on to it, two of whom were washed off; but the other three, with himself, were rescued by the City of London tug. He cannot tell how he con- tinued to hold on, having only one hand available. He expressed himself deeply sensible of the kind- ness he had received on board the tug and at the Dover Infirmary. The steamer Murillo, which was npposed to have run down the ill-fated Northfleet, is reported to have arrived at Lisbon on Wednesday, but to have left that port again at once, without deliver- ing the cargo consigned there. This would seen to be a strong confirmation of the suspicion that she is the offender.

The first School Board school erected In York- shire was opened on Monday, at Sheffield. A Hindoo Freemasons' lodge has been established in Bombay. By an unexplained blunder on somebody's part, two coal waggons were being shunted near the Widnes station, oa«Mond*y morning, on the same line that the Buxton Express was dae. A aharp collision was the result, some of the passengers re- ceiTing injuries of a serious character. Ihe same night, a collision took place near Barnsley. Captain Short, of the steamer Brighton, just arrived in port, states that on the 21st instant he fell in with an English two-masted screw steamer, from Liverpool to Bilboa, which was in a sinking condition. Every effort was made to save the crew, but the Brighton was compelled eventually to leave I them to their father.
THE TICHBORNE CASE.I
THE TICHBORNE CASE. THE CLAIMANT BOUND OVER AND MR. SKIPWORTH IMPRISONED. On Saturday, in the Court of Queen's Bench, on the application of Mr Hawkins, Q.C., for a rule calling on the Claimant and the chairman at the meeting held at Brighton on the evening when Messrs. Whalley and Onslow appeared before their lordships for contempt, at which tke conduct of the court was condemed, to appear in court, their lordships granted a rule returnable on Wednesday. On Wednesday, the proceedings began by the Claimant and Mr Skipworth answering to their names, and they stated that they had no counsel. They were allowed to resume thiir seats. The Master of the Crown then read the affidavits of the reporters of the Brighton meeting, whose notes gave the particulars of the contempt charged, and and also the reports of the Claimant's and Mr Skip- worth's speeches delivered at Liverpool and St. James's Hall.—Mr Justice Blackburn then called Mr Skipworth to show cause. Mr Skipworth rose with a brief in his hand with the intention of reading, but the court ordered it to be read by the Master of the Court. In his affidavit he stated that the press of the country had been allowed to persecute an innocent man, and that he had come forward to impress the people with the truth and honesty of the Claimant's case and the injustice of the prosecution. He had made fair and just comments. The dignity, majesty, and in- tegrity of the English law had been set at naught to condemn, try, and convict an innocent man. This was a degradation, dishonour, and disgrace to the land, and the threats and intimidation of the Queen's Bench could not deter him from perform- ing a duty to his country and his God. He did not consider the Lord Chief Justice a proper person to try the Claimant, whom he had called an impostor; but he wished to withdraw the expression I hissed the Lord Chief Justice," as that was an involuntary phrase, a happier one not occurring at the moment. He spoke in utter defiance of the court, and he finally submitted that the action taken against him was cruel, unjust, and oppressive. Several letters were read as exhibits to the affidavit to show the motives with which he had been actuated. These were addressed by Mr Skipworth to the Crown and the people of England. In the latter he charged the Government with misappro- priation of public fund?, and by unlawfnlly using their influence against the Claimant they had rendered themselves liable for an impeachment for treason, if not high treason. He accounted for the collapse of the caie by it following upon some "honeyed words" whispered by the Attorney- General when his arm was round Serjeant Ballan- tine's neck. The Claimant's friends had offered Serjeant Ballantine 10,0001. if he succeeded, but those honeyed words had finished the case. (Laughter.) He said they wanted no more huggina; scenes. On Mr Justice Blackburn askinar if he had any- thing to add to his affidavit, Mr Skipworth said If, after due consideration of all you have heard you think it proper to find me guilty of contempt of court, I should think it right not to place myself in your hands, but to rest on the laws of my God for protection. On the Claimant being called on he said he was not aware that he had committed contempt of conrt, but if he had done so it was unintentional. He maintained that the alleged guilt of con- tempt ought to be tried by a jury, whom he would convince by witnesses of the truth of his statements. Mr Justice Blackburn said it was a question for the court and not for a jury. The Claimant said that inasmuch as part of the alleged contempt was for remarks on the Lord Chief Justice, he ought not to be tried before his lordship's colleagues. He did not say that out of disrespect to the court, but by having it tried before a jury he would have an opportunity of proving by witnesses what he said of the Lord Chief Justice. Mr Justice Blackburn said he was accused of per- verting and obstructing the course of justice, and whether what was said of the Lord Chief Justice were true or false did not matter. The Claimant said he was not using undue in- fluence to prejudice the forthcoming trial, but he thought he had a perfect right to speak against the disgraceful speech made by the Attorney-General on his trial. With the permission of the court. he would read what he had jotted down on the previous night. The Claimant then read his defence from a manuscript. He complained of the Lord Chief Justice Bovill having committed him to Newgate without a preliminary trial before a magistrate, which latter would have given him witnesses for the approaching trial at the public expense. The Government were prosecuting him at a cost of 100,0001., which contrasted with their conduct in refusing to prosecute Overend and Gurney on the ground that it affe^tel private person3, and not the public at large. He asked their lordships what they thought of the Saturday Review calling him a big bully ?" Mr Justice Blackburn said it was a most improper article to write. The Claimant next quoted from the London Echo, which remarked with reference to the At- torney-General that people begin to think that he protested too much." "I rather think they do," said the Claimant. Mr Justice Blackburn: That article is strongly against your opponent. The Claimant said the whole of the press were against him excepting the Morning Advertiser. (A laugh.) The Manchester Courier of Monday last, said, They did not care to express an opinion on the Claimant, but on his owa showing he was-not a fit person for the friendship of decent people." He next quoted the Pall Mall Gazette, and asked if they bad not all committed contempt of court. Mr Justice Blackburn said that might be libellous, but those newspapers did not come with the cases commenting on a forthcoming trial. The Claimant: But surely it would entitle me to go forth to the public to contradict those state- ments which would certainly prejudice me in the forthcoming trial. I hold that I have a perfect right to contradict those statements. My only means of raising money is by going from town to town. In 1870, Vice-Chancellor Stuart condemned the London Echo for contempt of court, but left me to pay my own casts. Since that time I have had no money to prosecute the newspapers, but I have addressed eighty meetings without any warning from Government that I was committing contempt. If I have been guilty of contempt I have done it in ignorance, and if you convict me you will be pre- judicing my case. Xoa will be taking from me the little money I have for my defence, and inasmuch as I say that I never intended contempt of court, I ask your lordships to overlook what I have said. I leave myself entirely in your lordships' hands to do anything with me you please. Mr Hawkins then addressed the court for the Crown. He said his sole object in moving for the rule against Mr Skipworth was to preserve the due and decorous administration of justice, and prevent a great public scandal and an outrage on public decency in discussing the demerits of the prosecu- tion before the case was heard before a properly con- stituted tribunal. Their Lordships consulted for ten minutes, after which they sentenced Mr Skipworth to a fine of 5002. and three months' imprisonment, and ordered the Claimant to give security, himself in soot, and one surety in a like sum, to be of good behaviour for three months. Dr. Attwood, his medical attendant entered into the required security and he was dis, charged. Mr Skipworth was removed in custody. -0
