ACTION AGAINST MR J. P. DU MOULIN.

At the Civil Sittings of the Supreme Court, at Levuka, on October 19, an action -was brought by Mr C. R. Forwood, a barrister and solicitor of the Court, against Mr J. P. Dv Moulin, Manager of the Bank of New Zealand at Levuka, for alleged slander. The plaintiff's declaration was to the effect that one of his clients was a Mr Walter Hunter, of Taviuni, planter, and plaintiff ■was employed to institute proceedings by the Fiji Banking and Commercial Company, of which Mr Dv Moulin was manager, against Messrs 0. Hartman and Co., of Taviuni, planters and manufacturers, against certain of whose chattels an attachment was granted by the Chief Justice of the Court. Subsequently, an interpleader action was heard in reference to other chattels of Hartman and Co., which had been levied upon, and the right to them was decided in favour of J. McConnell, executing creditor, and against Richard Kipper. The defendant, Mr~Du Moulin, was accused of having on that occasion, in the hearing of diverse persons, falsely, maliciously, and in a defamatory sense, uttered the false, scanda lousand malicious words following:—" I told you Kipper was a thief, and now he is proved to be so. I should not have lost my case the other day" (meaning the said continu ance of the attachment above referred to) " but for the damned foolishness of For wood," (meaning plaint iff) " who had other fish to fry," (meaning thereby that the plaintiff had corruptly and contrary to his duty in that behalf, neglected the interests of the said Banking Company in the con duct of the said attachment case, to assist the interests of other clients) whereby the plaintiff lias s;nce lost the professional em ployment and business of the said Banking Company, and also of the said Walter Hunter, and of the said other persons having business connections with him, and the said Banking Company and the emoluments aris ing therefrom respectively, ami lias greatly suffered in his other professional profits. The damages claimed were £2,000. Mr Sullivan gave evidence that he heard the alleged words used by defendant. Mr Forwood was also examined ; but at this stage plaintiffs counsel desired to withdraw the case. The other side contended for costs. Plaintiff's counsel then desired to take a nonsuit. The learned judge, in ' allowing the case to be withdrawn, said that the suspicions entertained by the defendant were justified. The whole course adopted in this case of delaying it until Mr Dv Moulin was about to leave the colony on a visit to New Zealand, and the application made to me in Chambers at the eleventh hour, to arrest this respec table and well known citizen as an ab sconding debtor, shewed a spirit animating this prosecution, of a most reprehensible kind." The learned judge also commented very strongly upon the fact that the plaintiff had stated that he had brought the abtion on the advice of his (the judge's) predecessor on the Bench, which he con sidered simply incredible. He had considered whether or not he ought to bring attorneys to book for making such statements.

Sir,—l think it my duty to slate that your Ghol lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my case to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the .sake ol1 those who may be suffering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine 1 beg to state that I had been sultering the most excruciating agony from Bi-verc Hheuniatism for over two years. I could ni'V rest at night. My appetite was gone, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins were constant, and almost insupportable 1 was induced to try your Rheu mati'.sm Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles of it.

/COMMON SENSE AND COMFORT. i Gtas Stoves. COOKING by GAS is Easier, Cheaper, and far more Economical than by Wood or Coal, and suitable for the Cottage, Mansion, or Hotel. The supei-ior flavour, the retention of the animal juices in the Meat, and the prevention of waste, are plainly shown on the first trial. The loss of weight by GAS COOKING is reduced to about one-fourth of that of tho com mon modes of Roasting or Baking, for whereas a Joint of Meat of eleven pounds loses never less than three pounds at an Open Fire, or four pounds in an Oven, the loss by the Gas Roaster is only one pound. If you have common sense, buy one. If you want comfort, buy one. GAS STOVES, for Boiling, Steaming, Broil ing, Stewing, or Frying, from 3s.
