At any rate he was, as editor, responsible for their appearance in the journal he con- trolled; and his objection to their having been noticed by the . Court and Jury merely proves that his effusions were of so, debased a character that he dared not avow them. The second complaint is, that the passages in question were not libels. That was very concisely decided by the Judge, | who characterised them as ** monstrous libels,’’ and quoted the opinion of Lord Mansfield, in order to shew, that if there bad been legal proof offered of such libels having been per- petrated by the prosecutor, it would be the duty of the jury, be said, to award him no damages at all; and the Jury took nearly the same view of the matter, when they stamped the plaintiff? with disgrace, on account of his ‘ monstrous libels,’* in awarding him a FARTHING. | The third objection is the best ef all, that there was no We have always understood that it was not necessary to prove proof that we had not garbled the passages we read. that the moon was made of green cheese. The burden of proof of that fact is generally thrown upon the party who propoun ls the ingenious theory. The fourth objection to the Judge's charge ! is, that we might as well have read extracts from Robinson Crusoe, and the Judge have discoursed on the goatskin garments of the wrecked mariner. Thereference to his lordship we have nottced merely as evidencing the spirit which dictated the artivle ; and we can tell the editor of the Islander, that the poor savage, Friday, would have felt himself for life degraded in his own estima- , tion and that of others, had he been charged before a public} meeting of his dusky brethren with the authorship of shanders as vile as those we adduced.

But there were Libel suits in this Colony before ours, and we cannot see that the respective defendants to them were in a better position than we are with respect to the last one. A brief reference may not be unin- teresting. In the first place, Mr. Maclean himself is really a ** convicted libeHer,’’ which we are not—no judgment haying | ed of seditious libel, In the second place, in the year 1829 the | late James B.

The then Solicitor General, who was counsel for the defendant, opposed the motion, and the | Court refused to entertain it; in consequence of which Mr. Palmer considered himself « very ill-used man. In the third’ place, a few years since, W. H. Pope, Esqr., brought a suit of a similar nature against the Hon. Francis Longworth, in which the Jury awarded compensation to the plaintiff to the amount of sixpence! Mr. Longworth was delighted with the result, aud we have frequently heard his friends boast of it; while ‘Implements for Farming. 119 New Advertisements.

Such statements are untrue ; and the ‘‘cunning man”’ who made them, and the man on whose behalf they were made, found the difference between the truths we advanced and the fictions they invented. . After all his complaints, we are informed that “ the plaintiff has obtained all that he asked for or wanted.’’ We rather in- | cline to the belief that he got considerably more than he wanted or expected. However, if he is satisfied, we are content. The pen which, as we were recently informed, had a trick of writing grammatically, without the control of the guiding hand of its master, must have been in a queer state when the ' fullowing was indited :— ** The Defendant obseryee,’’ says the Islander, ** in the Ex- | aminer of the 19th that ‘although subjected to a trying or-| deal, we have come out of the fiery furnace unscathed.’ J | must he admitted that if the Defendant be unscathed by eleven, if not twelve, of his own friends, upon their solemn oath, finding hima convicied liar, do not scathe him, that nothing else can.’ We have placed the whole of the latter sentence in italics, in order to render the more conspicuous its grammatical correctness and elegance of style. The whole article evinees such a mingled sense of mortifying defeat and baffled hate, that we feel pity for the state of mind under which the writer laboured when he penned it. viction reeorded against us, we think we shall have more reason to exult than either Mr. Haszard or Mr. Longworth. The united damages they had to pay was one English shilling, while all that can be claimed from us is the forty-eighth part of that small coin. After those two examples of disappointed suitors, how gratifying it is to find that the mild, gentlemanly, pure ‘minded editor of the Islander is pleased and happy to receive a verdict of ONE FARTHIING! The article to which we have devoted more than deserved consideration, concludes with an allusion to the writer’s know- ledge of the proceedings of a ‘ rogue’s ordinary.’’ Not having any acquaintance with such an institution, we do not intend to deny the correctness of his statement, and merely venture to ask, if the ‘* rogue’s ordinary,’’ with which Maclean appears to be so well acquainted, is the resort of ordinary rogues? i “ —_—--- —-—- -« wee en Pusuic Dinner. to.7THE Hon.

As to the alleged ** falsehoods *’ which formed the ground of action, everybody knows that they were mere matters of public ramour—often referred to by Mr. Joseph Pope in the House of Assembly, and sometimes alluded to by Mr. Maclean himself in the Jslander. They did not originate with us; aud what is more, they have never yet been shown to be either true or false, and are as likely to be the one as the other. As they were calculated to bring into public contempt | the individual to whom they referred, the law declares them | to be libellous ; and as we published them, we did not attempt to deny that we were amenable to the law. But all the | papers in the Colony circulated the same libellous matter when they gave publicity to Mr. Pope’s speeches, and might all as reasonably have been prosecuted as we have been. it is really amusing to hear a person of the editor’s character | and antecedents complain of being libelled by others. Scarce- iy 2 No. of the Islander has made its appearance since he ao! sumed the management of that paper, five years ago, with-. out having thrown on the community a flood of defamation as foul and fetid as any that ever polluted the moral atmos- | phere. Even since the trial, while this journal has manifested | @ spirit of forbearance little to be expected from us under the | circumstances of our position, but which has nevertheless, giiped us many friends where we had enemies before — the Islander has given no evidence of an improved temper and dis- position on the part of its editor; but on the contrary, its | columns have run over with the most malicious personal vitu- | peration, directed against ourselves particularly ; and even in the No. before us, it would not be difficult to convince any Jary—no matter to what political party they might belong | ~~ that there are libels far more malicious and gross than that | whieh formed the subject of the recent action. It would be. folly to think of prosecuting the editor—his character has. been already assessed at its full value, and the community do | not care to see him again epter a Court of Justice in any cae. ycity ; bat * may be a matter for consideration whether the eause of morality would not be served by inflicting a proper punishment on the reckless publisher, who, though he may be | deficient in understanding — and that is more his misfortune. than his fault —has surely common sense enough to perceive that he is ey ‘ry week doing violence to the moral sense of the. community, to say nothing of the damage to his political party and to himself as an individual—by spteading abroad the poisonous ebullitions of a mind rendered desperate by the i above 8 pale CO Shaseddy evening next, at the Catholic School Room, C tteto%n.

My complaint seemed to gain ground; for three or four times daily 1 was compelled to leave off work, and lay down from excess of pain in my stomach. When in Town, one day, I made my condition known to you (although almost in despair); you tuld me you wouldeure me. You gave me a Box of Vegetable Stomachic Pills, also a Bottle of your Stomach Renovator, or Appetite Drops, prepared by yourself; and aa many persons may be suffering as I have dove, [ think it is not only necessary, but an act of justice, to make known where go efficacious a remedy for stomach complaints may be obtained, as I have been most effectually cured by it after so long a period of intense suffering.
