Mrs Dillon immediately instituted hu action for slander against the Chief Secretary and set out in her affidavit;—“That the publication of said slanders by the soid intended defendant has greatly injured my character, and interfered with me m the pursuit of my profession and calling, and greatly decreased my practice and emoluments, and exposed me t* ridicule and contempt from my neighbours, who are for the most part Nationalists, and who am naturally indignant that my alleged unfeeling conduct should hare brought discredit on the cause and be made tbe main ground by the laid intended defendant for a bill for the coercion of Ireland.” Truth says ;—I really do think that even if the law gives-Mrs Dillon Doelaime against him, Mr Balfour ought to do something for this lady.
