proved to be a bad spec, as a private ven ture. —B. \V. Brodkorb." The soubriquet "Tricky Job" applied to the plaintiff was of a very offensive character, mid in a place liko Tauranjja was far moro objectiori ablo than in a larger place, because more easily taken up. The plnin tilf was charged with being unscru pulous, with being connected with a fraudulent transaction, and with imposing upon the public. These were, therefore, imputations that the plaintiff could not eit down under, more especially as no attempt was made to apologise for them. He asked for the judgment not so much as a solatium for his feelings as to recoup him for the in convenience and loss he must have suffered in this matter.—Evidence was then taken. —Jjteph Forster Buddie deposed that ho was an auctioneer and commission agent at Tauranga, in partnership with Captain A. C. Turner. A Company entitled the New Zealand Manuroand Chemical Company had recently been started in Tauranga, arid while acting as Acting-Secretary of it pro tern at the beginning of December last, ho was endeavouring to interest the public in it. The object of the Company was to utilise the sulphur deposits at White Is land. A Mr Wilson had previously attempted tho relining of sulphur, but the Company proposed to manufacture superphospates and other manures. He saw an advertisement headed "Warning Note" in tho " Bay of Plenty Times " of

December the Ist inst. There was no other local agent at Tauranga named " Joe," and when he read the advertisement he took it to himself. He had heard a few months pre viously that someone had christened him "Tricky Joe," but did not guess who it was nntil he saw the advertisement, He had a shrewd suspicion that the phrase "com mercial fraud " referred to Captain Bar clay, tho editor of the paper, who was then canvassing for subscriptions. He was ban tered greatly about tho epithet, "Tricky Joe," and ho considered that tho imputa tions cast upon him in the advertisement weroJikely to injure him in kis business.— To Mr Heaketh : He had nothing to do eit.hyr direutly or indirectly with an article that appeared in the Tauranga "Post" during November last with refer ence to the defendant.—To His Honor i Tho defendant was accountant in a butchery establishment in Tauranga.— William M. de Rune Barclay deposed tha ho was editor of the " Bay of Plenty Times," and that he reeoived from the de fendant in December last tho advertise ment in question for insertion in the "Times." The defendant paid for it, and wished it to bo " spread out " and made prominent. Witness believed the torm " Tricky Joe " to apply to Mr Buddie, and the item "commercial fraud" to bo directed against himself. Ho had been canvassing in the interests of tho Manure Company, and ho had also been acting as Secretary of a dairy company.—To Mr. Heskoth : He had written a certain article (produced), which appearedin the Tauranga "Post" in November last, but it did not refer nor was meant to refer to the defendant. —John Campbell deposed that he heard the defendant read in Maxwell's store, Tauranga, the substance of the advertise ment before it appeared in print. Then, however, the term, "Tricky Joe," was amplified by the words, " otherwise known as J. B. Buddie."—John William Mitchell Purdie, Firth Wrigley, and John Alexander Wilson, also gave evidence.—This closed the case tor the prosecution.—John Mc- Phergon was the first witness called for the defence He deposed that he heard the defendant read the substance of tiie ad vertisement in Maxwell's store at tho same time as Campbell, and that \o did not make use of the words "otherwise known as J. F. Buddie." What ho read was exactly tho same as that which appeared subsequently in the paper. Beda W. Brodkorb (the defendant) admitted having written the advertisement entitled " Warning Notice," and stated that he paid Captain Barclay 12a 6d for ita insertion in the "Times," but denied that ho asked for it to bo " spread out." Mr Maxwell, in his store, accused him of having boon acting in an underhand way against tho interest of the Manure Co., and thereupon witness pulled out and road tho copy of the ad vertisement. It did not contain the namo of tho plaintiff. Ho was led to publish the advertisement in consequence of an article which appeared in the " Post" of Nov. 2S, and which evoryono seemed to think to apply to him. Tho advertisement was directed against tho person who concocted that article, and not against tho plaintiff. "Joe" was a running torm, and was used familiarly to designate any person whom it was desired to keep namoless.—Mr Hesketh thon addrossed the Court, submitt ing that the alleged libel had not bean pub lished maliciously. Ho also suggested that the torm "Tricky Joe" might have been used in tho same general sense as tho slang phrases, "Notfor Joo"and "Artful Joe."— Mr Button having leplied, His Honor delivered judgment. He had no doubt in his mind that the advertisement was libellous. Abundant evidence had bean adduced to show that tho term " Trickey Joe " was in tended for the plaintiff. Considering the defendant's circumstances, however, and the fact that it had caused no real damage to the plaintiff, he wo-ild only impose a fine of £25 and costs, the costs to bo on tho lower scale. Had tho defendant apologised tor his attack on the plaintiff, all this might Jiavobeen averted.

INQUEST.

Ak inquest waa held this afternoon at the Thamaa Hotel, before Dr. Philson, coroner, and a jury {Mr John Ryan, foreman), on the body of John Henty.—Sergeant Donovon reprerented the police. The following evidence was taken: — Captain James Tozer, master of the steamer Ringa rooraa, deposed that he waa not ac quainted with decease! prior to his coming on board at Sydney on the 3rd inst., at 4.40 p.ra. Did not take particular notice of him at first. On the second evening the cnief steward informed him that a pssaen ger was suffering from illness. He looked pale but not particularly ill. Saw him again on Sunday, the 6th instant, in hw bed. He was talking very incoherently. Made no complaint, but looked very ill. In tbo evening he was very violent, and was watched uay and night from that even ing. On the following day (Monday) Jie became exhausted, »nd remained in his cabin. He got worse as the night wore on. On Tuesday afternoon ho talked to him, and tried to pacify him by telling him that ho would soon be in Auckland, He was still delirious, and did not seem to understand what was said to him. Triedtocheer him.but without effect. He did not crave tor any. thine He only had one bottle of beer on the poesa^e. At 5.10 p.m., while on the bridge, he was informed that Mr Henty was dying. Ho went to him at once. Found him lying in bed on his back. Thehe action of his heart had ceased. Breathing had ap parently ooased. He was [not quite Scad, Wetted his lips with brandy; he then slightly moved, groaned, and expired. Watched by him until his extremitie3 were getting cold. The vessel was offKowau at the time. As far as lie could tell the cause of death was oxeessive drinking; that was his opinion, but he never saw the man drinking,

In our London letter yesterday mention wqb made of various financial arrangements which Mr Ritso is making in London on behalf of railway projects in New Zealand. Among those that have been successfully financed conditionally upon the necessary bill passing Parliament should have been mentioned the Canterbury East and West Coast line, which a local Company are now prepared to undertake in conjunction with English capital on the land grant system.
