Naughty Little Bird That Fouled Its Own Nest Letter to Lord Campbell
A long letter criticizes Lord Campbell on libel and slander law reform.

The writer questions proposed amendments and warns of potential abuses if the law is altered.

Escape of King and Queen of France and others shocks Paris
Paris journals recount the narrow escape of the King and Queen of the French and the Queen of the Belgians on their way from Eu to Treport on the 28th alt. The incident sparks gratitude and fears of upheaval, while debates over Queen Victoria's possible visit to Paris and Mendizabal's movements dominate the foreign news. Madrid reports hidebound politics, the Lopez coalition, and Mendizabal's correspondence. Welsh petitioners call for new Parliament to restore prosperity and free trade, amid regional unrest and a grave Lyme Regis accident.
