■♦ THE J. M. PERRIER-CUM-G. M. REID LIBEL CASE. AUCKLAND. ,- " -Bth June. A libel actien, long since supposed to have been dropped, has just been revived by G. M. Reed, late of the Auckland Evening Star, against John Moore Perrier, formerly editor of the Auckland Morning Advertiser, and now of the New Zealand Times. The action was originally brought against Sydney Coppock, the publisher of the Advertiser, who was committed for trial in the Supreme Court. Reed had then withdrawn the action, sooner than subject Coppock to the penalty; but fresh evidence has recenty come into Reed's hands, who is now in Auckland, and has placed the matter in the hands of a lawyer to institute a criminal prosecution. It is said that some documentary admissions of authorship are forthcoming; also evidence as to handwriting of manuscript. » [Per Press Agency.]
