with the history of the city government, that In
connection with a sketch of the trial, we propose to
give a brie! resume of tire facts oct of which It
sro6& .
It appears that In 1858 there existed In Chicago
ahnrinees association by (he name of the Chicago
Stone and Cool Mining Company, whose teams
were obliged to make largo use of the street celled
the Western Avcnne.. This Western Avenue being
hi a somewhat heavy condition,: the company de
sired to have it paved, and procured the passage of
an crdlftnco for paring It at the city** crp-mae—'
'contracted under the ordinance to do the work, and
within .the first two weeks alter its passage, had
'arlimflyaccoropllthcdalinleof It. In that inter
val, however, the Coaneli auclt something, which
led tocm to repeal the ordinance at the regular
meeting,, immediately snccecdlng the one which
adopted It. The work on Wurti-nj Aveaae.-bow
ever, being for the' Interest of tbs C. S. 4. C. M.
Co., was not suspended by the repeal of the ordi
nance. The company went on and completed it,
anil thru claimed that (be coat of the work should
hemaderptothem hythe city, a claim which the.
city was not swift to recognize.,'
In (he dispute concerning this claim. Julian JL
Rnmvy; Mayor, and S. D.Ward, Comptroller of the
city, to 1860, who treated the demand v« Spartans,
became especially repugnant to WlllUtn K. Colby,
a member of the C. C. A S, iLCo- and one of the
Common Cdancll fur that year, who was working
very bard to bsvo the claim allowed. .
We do not Intend to do anything more than bare
ly. alladw to too fight among the city officials grow

oat of personal- motives, of - which Comp
troller Ward was the central figure. In IS3I. nor to

: It was at the close of the former of these inveatl

dl the eooimunicoUon on which , the present suit
(or libel Is founded. This cotmnanlcullon wa? as
follows: •
Matow 1 * Omci. Chicago. Nor. 7,18(3. .

JOlltborpe and C. C. Flint,, and porbapa oth
ercr.pcmme, hare been endeavoring 10 bare
the Comptroller removed from otf.cn for the follow,
tog reasons, tU: thinldog that iheywouhi be bet
ter able to nwlnfile ibe ■ alt on some old claims
wbleh the* pretend to hold aratnst It, and that the;
might-until/ a personal animosity against 'him,
probiWr originating in tbe fectthut the; would not
pay each claims. . * . •
in the endeavor to accomplish this ohjoct It was
Siiteortfieat to those hearing the evidence before

©r the parties la adtjr ofodal, I .shall leave the
Grand-vary to deal with thereat, and proceed to
the consideration of the case of AldcnuaaColby.
And 1 now charge Alderman Coibv:
j. With entering Into a conspiracy to Inlaro the
character of a prominent financial city otidal by
ms kins w-c*Unl ihorgM against: him. thereby on
deatenng to procurohla removal, believing that
tbe so-called charge* were &dao when he made
them, and by «o doing deliberately Injuring the
good name and financial credit of tbe dry. which
as an Alderman he to bound to protect.
5. With using Improper moan* to Induce other
Aldermen (o rote lor vnch removal before he or
other* had Intended to make such charges.
U. That by misrepresentation he induced other
Aldermen to sign & recommendation to bars
a certain claim paid, belonging to OUthorpe and

C. With acting disbonestiy.to many ways la mat-.
ter* relating. to the city government during the'
time that h*Thae been Alderman, which an Invest!*
gatif.u Into thofect* will show. •
-As It Is doubtfnl whether a committee haa.tbo
right to sabtxrna wltnesse* and compel them to
answer questions, I respectfully suggest (that as
the Common Connell has the power 1) chat you ap*
point some early time to Investigate these charges
wltiiaview If they be found.to bo - true to a .wif*
firU-nt extent fo Justify euch action, to CxpnilAl*
dvimsn Colby from this body.
Out of this communication ot the Mayor to tho
Comtßvm Council, arose two Judicial, or quae] jniil
rial loTcatiKatiAns.. One of thru waa tbe inquiry,
by the Council into the troth of the charges time
preferred by the Mayor, &n inquiry occupving
some four months, and a verbatim report of wbleh,
was It nottmado by Hitt, tbe celebrated steno
grapher, and 1* it not, complete In five: hundred
pages, to bo had at the Mayor's office, for tb« hen.
' nil of all enthusiasts in this description of Utcra
lurr. , -
Thu other;on© was the eolt of Colby re. Bmavey
for libel, bnlogbi to the Superior Court some two
} care sgo, and tried before Judge Gary on Friday
at.-’ Vfitzriay.
In this coo©- rtalutld based, hi* declaration In

The order tied resuh of tbe trial wee«bri«6y ae
follows: After opening tho csm to tbo Jury-:q a
abort fpccch.Mf. Van Imrco, counaclfor thapUln-
Uff.cfltavdln evidence ftmaaccrtlOed copy of the
Maror** ctonamnlcation, the language on which the
plaint Iff relied a* Hbrlione.
lie tbenprodneed Ald.coml«ky aaawltnosa, who
proved the publication alleged to be libellous, by
the readlocnf too communication of the Mayor to'
tbe Consol, and then haring refreebed hi* memory
bp a neruMlof toe printed report of the Colby tores*
ligation, before spoken of, testified to certain
.aUlemcnta of defendant made under oath before
tbe rocDcfi, during that Investigation, relating to
'comcreation* between di-fondant, members of the
Council and other*, hold before tho tovrstfrstlon
commenced, (n these conversation* defendant had
spokui very freely of Colby’* character andnartlc
nWly of bis coooection with the claim for Maeeda
mlxtog tVestern Avenue, character!ting the
nsa rascally transaction, and Colby lumarii u a
reveal ard a scoundrel. Thl* tsotlmony was Infrv
doced, aa conneel for platottff alleged, by way of ag*
pravatlen. to prove that defendant to bf* conmnmt*
cation to the Council waa actuated by mallceagatost
toeplalntiff. .
Conned for defendant attempted to emso^xam*
- toe tbe witnree with relation to the nature of toe
transaction* to which defendant, while speaking
of plaintiff, bad vrikrence, and thea rebut thepre*
samption of malice, by ehowtog that toe language
was such as any honest man would naturally apply
to franesetiott* of that description. Bat the Court
ruled such a course of examination to beinadmlw*
able. Tbe defence was, however, permitted to in
troduce to evidence, toe entire statement* aod con
versations of the defendant, so Cor as they were
shown by the aforesaid printed report, of which
tbe vtmats, on hit examination in chief, bad testi
fied to a part, not, however, as part of the contents
of the report, bat a* toe statement of the wtloraa
Cotnlskr, with his recollection refreshed, a? afore
said, by lla perusaL- Upon this prooL
plaintiff- rested, ana the counsel for'
defence Immediately . moved the Court
to toatruet tbe Jury to give a verdict for toe defend
rnt.rm the ground that the coma uni cation front.
1 tbe Mayor to the Council came within the ciesa of
privileged communication*, which, la tbe absnace
of proof of expreM malice, can fbrnUh no croud '
for actions of libel.
They claimed further that this particular commu
nication Mooted, tinder the prorlnlone of the dtr
charter, to that most privileged dsea of trritlacß
relating to the initiation or proceeding*. Int&e
nature of Indicia) proceedings. toe authors of which
can only be liable to actiocricr malicious prosecu
tion, and not to actions Cor libel at all.
• This quartan was argued at length hyS. W"
Fuller, counsel for the defense in support of tyy
motion. and Mr. Van Boren In opposition. to to. tt.
The argument wju not completed mi yeetttdar
afternoon, and upon ita completion. Jatlee -Gary
temwClstely gave the following opinion: *
The Charter of the city tn •lotto at the Urae of the
aK«xud publication of tho supposed libeL provided •
in section #, charter 2, thateveryperaon c'-cted
, *uy office by the people might he removed i.ct»

I ferae, and the Common Council should bars power
| to attendance of witness; sand the pro
duction of papers, when accessary lor the purposes
of such trial, sml should proceed iritfila ten days
lo bear and determine open the merits of the case.
By settle* v, chanters of the same charter the
Sl.njor was required lo take care that tbe laws of
the State snd urdiesneea of tbo dtv went doty on
. forced, respected and observed, and Crum time to
time to ulve to the Common Connell seek lafottaa
ties and recommend such measures as te mlght
; drrmadTiuitaceuas to thoettj.
The pUiotiif was on Alderman and the delta
- dsnt was Mayor of tbbclly and the publications al
leged. were, first, in showing to Mr. Ayer, the cor
, po ration counsel, for bis professional ad rice, and
then in presenting to theComsKmCuucdl (be com
.immleaUoucoutalQluglbe supposed libellous
ter, .
The court held that whatever roljbt be the rule or
: measure of the responsibility of the defendant for
presenting the cvromonicatioo to tbs Common.
Connell, would apply also to~ihe ahowlag to Mr.
Ayvr, because the latter was preparatory to the
.former, amt as to the presentation to the Common
hear and delcrmlcf Lbe cUartca. »uw m each if a
wrong was done for which liiojrtalnthf badany
remedy, it waa not in lbs present form of action for
libel bet an action for* malicious nnHcouttoo. 5
Jobo'a-*3O. *1 Wendell’s ScS, ;
1 bat this would have been true if the defendant
btdbcrulnt s private rltiaen of the city, snd with
much greater reason was bo protected from this
action, it twin# hfo official duty Ur proeecete the
chargee If he well believed them to ue well foood
cu. - , . .
The Court therefore on tho application of the de
fendant, gave the Jury th«* following Instruction;
“The Jury ate foKtrnctsd oa master ai law that
the plalmKrbos failed to make oat such a com as'
to entitle him to recover la this action sod Ills
therefore their defy ou the case prevented to find
, the defendant not guilty.”
Tho *t-rdlc» of the Jury was - -lu accordsoco with

The Doctor commenced his discoores by'esjlng

than riccp In a dose room, to sleep with open win
dows. lie always did so whenever he felt that the
air within the walls was oppressive. It' was non

did oot find the ulgut air polsouooa. Ladies espe
cially were cccnjies. totheir own great detriment,

and rhey did It, with clo«e veil* on, so that they

irave some tanay anecdotes shorn the dressing of

which turned out to boa baby, end thatwhilst b«

At this point he said he woold stop, and Intro-,
decs Mr. rowers, who, with his brother, bod. at
a cost of several thousand dollars came to tola
dtv to establish a gymnssetun on the new princi

they were the two best men In hl»-Boston school.
Mr. I’orter now came forward and wrnt through
a series of ererdsee which brought Into play ail
the mescles ef toe neper pan of the body—toe
arris, the back, the sides, tue brea»t, the neck, the
fingers sod wrist-All these were cone threngfa
to the eonnd of pleasant masio. and' very
pleasant and Interesting in themselves, 1 to say
nothing of their vahie as healliv escrclseo.
The or. then compared the value of these - excr
clscs to that of those which women gcneraUy oso

about the numerous mistakes which women made
