paper; the tentlency of which he argued
was to provoke- Mr. Riddle to the . contro
versy, which resulted in the complete dis•
comfeiture and overthrow of Craig upon his
own battle eround and with his own choice
weapons; and with such a result, he had no
right to cone into a Court of Justice and
demand .of a Jury that they should salve his
wounded pride—his situation, however
mortifying to his feelings, was one of his
own seeking—that he had been defeated
his resort to the law was an admission.
Thos Williams, Esq., then addressed
the Jury for the defence. He commenced
by telling the Jury that some of the most
distinguished members of the bar had
been applied to by the pl'ff to bring this
suit, but refused, and that if the present
counsel, who were comparative strangers
here, were acquainted with Craig's
character they would be ashamed of their
present position. He ridiculed the idea
of Nevil'e B. Craig suing any one for a
libel—a man who, as editor, was notorious
for his Billingsgate course—who spaced no
one—the aged and the young were alike
assailed—and the female character was no
protection from the slanderous and venom
ous assaults of this notorious libeller--
'twas he who prostituted the presti, and

combat, mortified - at the result, smarting

turned to him, he, hke a blubbering school
boy, appeals to the law for protection, and
craves mercy of his adversary by compul
sien. Discomfitted, unhorsed, tbe.already
hacked spurs should be cut from his re
creant heels. Mr. W. asked the Jury if
they would give damages to a man who
had, as an editor, done so much .;it pollute
the public taste—to a man who had libelled
the community indiscriminately—sparing
none. It was not because he had been
libelled,hut because he had been whipped.
that this suit was brought. His adversary
was ton powerful for him, and wounded
pride and mortification were the great in
ducements fJr the action. It was a notori
ous fact which the public r.f.c3rds would
show, that Neville B. Craig, in all his per
sonal controversies, when worsted, !mold
fly to the law for pi otectiork—and would
the law afford protection to s man who
was its daily violater. Mr. Wink ms,when
