The Pope has been petitioned to institute an inves- tigation to decide which is the true one. In England the year has been pretty full of scandal and of suits for slander and libel, in which English nobility has washed its dirty linen in public to the edification of all beholders. The year commenced with the famous case of William Gordon Gumming against Berkeley Levett, Mrs. Arthur Wilson and Mr. And Mrs. Lycett Green. This was an action for slander against the defendants who charged the plaint...iff with cheating at cards at Tranby Croft, the residence of the Wilsons. The game there played, it seems, was baccarat. The Prince of Wales supplied the counters and 94 RECORD OF CURRENT EVENTS, other Decessary materials, having brought them with him, and acted as banker. Four of those present testified that they saw the plaintiff cheat. The plaintiff, Sir William Gordon Gumming, averred that he did not cheat, and, as cheating at cards in English society is the highest of crimes, he brought his action for slander to vindicate his reputation.
