Mr. Brown, the editor of a Manx paper, imprisoned for

com- menting on the House of Keys, has been released, the Court of Queen's Bench holding that the Habeas Corpus writ runs there, as the island, though not in the " realm" of Great Britain, is not a "foreign" possession of the Crown. Mr. Brown has now to find a court before which to bring his action for damages.
