COURT OF CHANCERY, DEC. 12. SHiP REGISTERS.— WARD V. DANCY. Mr. Agar moved in this cause, which was highly interesting to the commercial worid, for all order or injunction to annul a certain contract, for the transfer or assignment of a ship now freighted in the Port of London, from the Defendant to the Plaintiff, on the ground of defective papers ami vouchers of sale, for want of the necessary endorsement by the vendor on the certificate of assign- ment. Mr. Leach and Mr. White opposed the mo- tion, on lh ground of practice in the Registry Office, under the Act ot King William 11 Land the Acts of the 24th and 34th of the present King, regulating such transfers; by the last of which the old register was lodged in the proper office, with an endorse on taking out a new register, which required no endorse- ment. The Lord Chancellor, with some warmth, observed, that he Ould not sutler such an important point of practice, although merely a point a practice, to remain longer unsettled, as Air. Agar suggested the danger of seizure of the ship to-morrow, for not hav- in j- her papers perfected hy the endorsement, within the tune limited after the assignment, which had here elapsed. Judgment was deferred till to-morrow morn- BANKRUPTCY, EMBEZZLE-

MiAND OUTLAWRY. EX-PARTE BRIDGES IN THE MATTER OF T. "Lw IS. The whole day was occupied in the discus- sion of this new and unparalleled case. I t -.vas brought on upon the petitions of the Solicitor of the as a. ere/lltor for a sum of 2onl, only, and of some oilier creditor, hy the instigation of the bankrupt, with a view to supersede the commission, on the ground that the bankrupt, MI". T. Lewis, late of Gray's Inn, solicitor, was not a trader as a money- scrivfiier, as described in the commission of bankruptcy, sued out. against him m August last, according to a late decision of the Lord Chancelior, upon this very case, when first b>-<>U'' i)t before him, and some other decisions, to the effect of ruling that an attorney, as such, hy receiving; money from one client and |uuir««- it away, was not a dealer and chap- lnau, getting his living hy money sctveinng. Mr. Lewis, soon after the Commission in Au- gust last, absconded from London to Frnce. with the property of his employers to the ex- tent of 200,0001, less by a sum of 200/. only, without submitting to his commission, taking with him all his accotnpl books and vouchers, by which, in addition to the crime ot embez- zlement, he became a felon aud au outlaw by the Bankrupt Laws. Among the widows and orphans whom he had thus defrauded, it was stated was a Mrs. Mortham, an old lady of 75 years, the whole of whose property, amounting to 37,0001. he had possessed himself, and hadeven threatened with arrest for costs of suit, to the amount of ,1,0001. and other demands alleged to be due to liiiii. Sir Arthur Piggott gave a horrible picture of the Bankrupt's conduct, and contended, from the evidence, that Mr. Bridges, his attor- ney, was only a colourable creditor, and not entitled to any relief. The Lord Chancellor commented in strong terms of indignation upon this case, which he believed was without parallel in that Court. Every practice resorted to in this matter was untenable underlie bankrupt laws; without adverting, however, in any manner to the conduct of Mr. Lewis or his attorney, who, perhaps thought he was acting right, while all in the wrong, as his Lordship might he on the present painful occasion, he considered the proofs against Mr. Bridges were conclusive, to shew that he was acting as the Bankrupt, now precluded from being at all heard in this Court. The system could not impose on any one of common sense, and compliance with the prayer of either of the petitions, would, in the present dreadful inciease of Bankrupt cies, be productive of endless evils. Both Petitions were dismissed with costs.

CR1M.CON. On Saturday last, at the Sheriff's Court, Bedford-street, the case of the Earl of Rose- berry, against Sir 11. Mildmay was brought forward. This was an action for criminal conversation with the plaintiff's wife, and the damages were laid at 30.0001. The defendant Sir II. Mildmay, had suffered judgment to go by default, and the jury were now cafled to assess the damages. The Altorney-General then addressed the jury:—in detailing the circumstances of the case, he observed that the plaintiff was a no- bleman of ancient creation, in the northern part of the kingdom, and of ihe most amiable character. His conduct to the unhappy lady who had been seduced from her duty was in the highest degree exemplary. Lord Rose berry married her in the year 1808, when she was only 18 years of age, and, by her, he was the father of four children. Lady Roseberry conoudetiherself with ilic utmost propViety, until, by the arts of the defendant, she was "educed from the paths of rectitude. She was !he daughter of Mr. Bouverle, brother to the Earl of Radnor but more distinguished by the possession of every virtue which (ould ele vale and adorn human nature. One of this gentleman's daughters—daughters whom he had educated in the most exemplary manner— was the wife of the plaintiff in this case; another of them was married to Sir H. Mild- itiay, the defendant: and a third was united fo the brother of the defendant. Sir H. Mild may in 1810, became a widower, his lady hav- ing first presented him with a son. In the month of March last, it became absolutely necessary, in consequence of the illness of the plaintiff's father, that he should proceed to his seat iu Scotland; and during his absence on this melancholy duty—visiting the sick, and, as it afterwards appeared, the death bed of a parent-the defendant employed himself in engaging the affections of his wife. A number of letters were then produced, all which went to prove the criminal intercourse I which had taken place, and the intemperate and headstrong passion, hy which the defend- ant was impelled -oil in his guilty courses.— Some of these letters commenced in the most. romantic language such as 14 Goddess of my idolatry—My angel &c. and ail breathed an affection of the warmest description, and urged the most seductive arguments in favour of an elopement. The Attorney General com- mented upon the aggravated enormity of the crime from the relationship of the parlies, aud concluded hy appealing to the honourable feelings of the jury, expressing his conviction that they would hy their verdict prove their sense of the atrocity which had been exhibited to them. Several witnesses were IfJcn examined and cross examined. Lord Folkestone had known Lady Rose- berry for the greater part of her life, she is the mother of four children, and he had always been of opinion no persons could live happier, but bad reason to believe Sir Henry's affairs were in an embarrassed state. The Solicitor General, Lord Bayning, and the Hon. Mr. Primrose also deposed to the state of mutual happiness and affection in which Lord and Lady Kosebnrry had lived.- Mr. P. produced a variety of statements, his being the principal evidence in proving the defendanl's gllllt. Mr. Brougham then rose, and after a very able address to the jury on the behalf of the defendant, cautioned them, in the verdict they should give, nnt to seek the utter ruin of the defendant and his family, but that their object should be, to give such fair damages as, at the time they should operate as a sort of com pen- sation to the plaintiff, and punishment on the defendant, sliotill not have the effect of ope- rating to work his utter ruin and lasting ba- nishment. Mr. Birchall, the Sheriff, summed up the evidence, and observed, that the jury were to judge dispassionately of the circumstances of the case, and to give such damages as they should think the facts of it required. The jury retired at six o'clock, and after being out nearly two hours, returned a verdict for the plainlitl—Damages, Fifteen Thousand Pounds. The Counsel for the plaintiff were., t)ic At- torney General, Mr. Topping and Mr. Jones. For the defendant, Mr. Brougham and Mr. Soane. The lady of the Earl of Roseberry is about 24, and Sir H. Mildmay, 28 years of age. Sir lleiiry and the fair partner of his crime are now in France.

ON A LATE AMOUR. When banish'd ritggid Winter's stern alarms, May's breezes mild on Nature's face was shed; The modest Primrose, with uxpanding charms, Rear innocently gay her lover's head. But as man's foechang'd Eden's bowers serene, Aud marr'd the spot where God had lov'd to dwell E'en so of late Mild-mat! has chang'd the seene, At his approach, the Primrose blighteù fell, l

BONAPARTE. Extract oflt Letter from Porto Ferrajo. We left Leghorn yesterday morning, and arrived here early this day. The British Con- sul at Leghorn, on whom we had to call to have our passports signed for Elba, shewed us a letter from the Consul at Naples, stating that the Dey of Algiers had declared war against Napoleon, and ordered his cruisers to capture all vessels sailing under Bonaparte's flag, and above alllhings to seize, if possible, the persun of the Emperor. At landing here, we waited on the Governor, who gave us po- sitive orders not to go to Longano, a town at the other end of the island, where we propos- ed to embark for the Continent, but to go to Piombino the first opportunity, and that if we left the town on any other occasion, he would have us arrested and sent to prison.— We waited on Colonel Campbell, the British Resident, who immediately wrote to General Bertram!, the confidant of Buonaparte, which had the effect to procure us permission to go where we pleased-and tomorrow we are to set out for Longano, where the Emperor now is. This town and harbour are the prettiest I have ever seen. In making the port, you first discover the fortifications and one or two houses—then you sail round a point of land into the harbour, which is sheltered on all sides by the hills, the town gradually rising behind the fortifications, which arc immensely strong; and above all is the Empei*>r's house, liow full of workincii. We saw many of the Imperial Guards here, who followed the for- I tunes of their Master, and, iu my life, I never saw finer men. Mr. ll- asked one of them how he liked the place. He grumbled much and said that nothing was cheap here but fish and wine, as all the meat must come from Piombino. Napoleon rises every morning at four, rides, reads, or walks all day, and goes to bed every evening at eight o'clock. When he first came here, he gave a grand ball to all the shopkeepers in the town, as without them lie could have no society. Every Sun- day lie has four of these people to dine with hid), and seems very affable, and, in general, in tolerable spirits. He still retains the Im- perial Eagle, but has taken for his colours a white grollnd, wilh a red stroke running dia- gonally through it. on which there arc three 6 1 t, gold bees, emblematic of industry, The pas- sage from Leghorn was most delightful. We li.id in succession, fine views of the Alps, Ap- peuines, Corsica, Elba, aud Italy, during the whole voyage. We rode to Longano this morning—the dis- t, t, tance is only eight miles. The road is hilly, hut remarkably good, having been made by Z, order of Napoleon, and commands the finest '1')' views imaginable. On the top of one of ihe hills we met the Emperor! drawn in an open carriage, by four horses. He sal by himself at one side, and two of his Staff at the other. He was dressed in a plain dark coloured coat, and had on a small cocked hat; He is very like the print you have of him at full.length, with his arms toided,except that he is one of the largest men across the shoutders I have ever seen. I-le is very ftill In the face. and of a deep yellow complexion. He made us a I low bow as we passed, and kissed his hand, as is his custom. He had ahout eight at- tendants, as mot lev a crew as I ever saw I Mamelukes, officers and privates. On our arrival here, we were waited on by the Eng. lish Consul and Vice-Consul, accompanied I by the Mayor. They inquired if we were the English Gentlemen ordered off the Island, and on our answering that we were, they snid that they were commanded by the Emperor to acquaint us, that he had heard last night of what had happened at Porto Ferrajo, and had sent off two Expresses to the Governor, re- proving him for his conduct, and ordering him to give us every assistance in his power.— He had also left directions with the Consul and Mayor, to attend us on our arrival, and to have two horses saddled, to conduct us to the mines, or where we pleased. After taking some refreshment with the 1.1ayor, who gave us a pass to any part of the island, we pro- ceeded towards the mine. Our horses were very near as large as asses, and our saddles as big as wool-packs: however, being well trained, they carried us very respectably up the mountain. J never saw in my life, or could have supposed there was a country of which there might be so much made-lull ot vegetation, having every advantage, good soil, incomparable cliinale, strong fortifica- tions, exceileut iron mines, and a population of about 12,000 souls. The country where the mine is, appears like a looking-glass. as the ore is all on the surface, and sparkles as bright as possible, when the sun shines. It y ields iron, sulphur, steel, and loadstone, sam- ples of which I have procured.—You may es- timate the richness of the ore by the fact that 1001b. produces 751b. of iron of the hest qua- lity. The Emperor has a house near the mines, at which he breakfasts, altogethei as large as one of my drawing-rooms, and that divided into a parlour, bed room, and study, resembling, hy the daubing paint upon it, a puppet shew more than the Palace ofaa Em- peror, litit the miners think it magnificent.— After getting samples of the ore, we returned to Longano, where our worthy Consul and the Mayor had a dinner prepared for us, not at the hotel, for it is not a goad one, but a private house, consisting of soup, boiled fowl, stewed fowl, roast fowl, and sallad, with most excellent wine. Our host was about six feet and a half high, having on neither coat,waist- coal, cravat, nor shoes, but with a queue of enormous length, attended us so far as giving us places, and then placed himself at the head of the table."
