If the plaintiff LOSS OF THE BRITISH BARQUE had only, instituted the action #galost the editor of the Figaro, or any other of the publicatione which have primed these accusations, there would have been no commission nekded, but since he chooses to bring it in this backbanded way, and attack persons who simply reproduce

the charges, it is necessary. M. Jacquemyas proceeded against M. Bryols direct, and he has no posible resson or jastification for attacking the person who, is enly responsible in the second degree. As to the question of this commission it cannot Wised the face. The paintiff, in bin affidavit,

denies the truth of the charges made to the defendant's newspaper," but ibere were no charges, and that ought to be expunged. The defendant simply spined bis pages to the inser- tion of a certain letter.

(FROM OUR CORRISPONDENT.),

Nowchwang, 10th November, 1893. The barque Brasillers, coming in without

pilot, got ashore, discharged ballast, then got

On the night of the 8b Inst. about 10 o'clock the British harque Bresiliera, bound in from Shanghid. capsited in the river off No. 1 Beacon, and is a total wreck. A Chitaman) (the ship' cook) being asleep as the time, went down with

His Honour. We need net go into that now. Mr. Michell proceeded to ei iclse the plaintiffs6 degrees of frest. affidavit, and dented that the defendant was *6ahing for evidence." His client, he need not *.y, was quite willing to allow any cross-exam- nation of the witnesses.

His fionour pointed out that there was some- times grest difficulty in getting foreign Courts to kilow cross-examination.

Mr. Tilleke agreed; it was very seldom allowed in French courts the questions had to be suggested to the judge, who put them if he Mr. Michell rejoined that the French courts could hardly he asked to alter their procedure

like:,

for the plaintiff's henefit.

His Honcurs, yes! There have been such cases. If you go to another country you very often find peculiar mode of procédure which does not quite taily with our ideas. There have been cases in which commissions have been disallowed for that reason.

Mr. Mitchell submitted that interrogatories were constantly being sent to courts la foreign jurisdiction, and that it would be less of a ̧bard- ship for the plaintiff not to be allowed to cross- examine than for the defan 'ant not to be allowed to get any, of the desired evidence.

Mr. Tillcke suzgested that the witnesses who were wanted should cross over to England and give evidence.

Mr. Michell continued that such a thing as security for costs unheard of. The defendant was attacked, and yet he must give security for defending himself.

Mr. TillckYeu forget that it was he who allacked the plaintiff.

Mr. Michel-Not at all; If your client bad wanted his reply published it would have been done, just like the letter was. Technically, perhaps, we have infringed the law of defamation, and M. Jacquemyns is privileged to attach my clicht in his (the British) court. Bat that privilege does not give him the right to make him pay for his attack.

The vessel grounded on the 4th lost, close to the Fort; the Captain, throwing all his ballas! overboard, got her off the mud of the 7th, and then she turned over.

The Newchwang winter being too much for our popular pianist, Mr. Leach, be had to apply for aablit south. He is transferred to Canto, and will leave about the zoth.

There is a remour current here that there is a rising in the Neith, about 150 miles from this port, and that soldiers have been sent from Moukden to the scene of trouble,

The weather is at present very cold, but it is likely we shall have a warm speil and the river

That is why the venue was laid in Yokohama j that was why the Emperor was made the claim- aut instead of the Naval Minister or a hundred

At least it might have been, but was so badly bangled that Instead of eliciting sympathy the arguments adduced will only create a smile, and Japan will have wasted much money which would have been far better spent assisting the poor sufferers by the flzoda la Okayama-ken-Faßan Garette.

■ summary, Those who have perused them and carefully cooned the decision of the judges cannot but be surprised-first by the feebleness adivostock...... of the case presented by Mr. Kirkwood, secondly by its unfairness, and thirdly that his Imperial Majesty the Japaners Emperor should have been so ill-advised as to bring the case in the Yokohama Court. Mr. Lowder's main contention that the Inland Sex is to all latents and purposes ocean highway was rendered unassailable by the quotation of the precedent of the Saxonia case, in which even the Solent was so defined. Yet, the Chief Justice' polated dar, veisels passing through the Salent must have been going either to or from * British port, whereas vessels might use Mr. Tilleke, In opposing the moilon, pointed the Inland Sea as a waterway between China out that rich commissions were only granted and America without callag at any Japan se onder special circumstances, and that there was

To thịt a general ples of truth was practically suffant But with regard to the other charges they were general, and a plea of truth was utterly insufficient--they must be specifically averred, and the instances given in the ples, so that the plaintiff would have something to go upon.
