A Point of Law.
"A. B." desires to know is it not libellous for a newspaper to insert an advertisement without instructions and "directly contrary to express orders." He goes on to say^ " For example, the newspaper might be one that I might consider a disgracefnl production m everyway; one that I would not on any account have my. friends think I supported ; and yet against my will my advertisement appears m it, leading the public *• > suppose I was supporting it, while nothing might be further from my wish. - Surely there is some law to protest the public from this species of annoyance. It is taking a most unwarrantable liberty with my name and business, which no respectable newspaper would attempt."
