I . eon, and when Captain Bowles • witnessed my constant distress, he lased\o say, " Dry up your tears, My dear Madam, or not cry in this way; you will find another son in me." Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant Vattoreaw..7-Cap tain IS. lived about a mile from our house. I never heid that my daughter visited Captain B. at his lodg ings' ; never heard that she was in the habit of going to see him•disguised in boy's clothes ; never knew that she used .tor sleep out, nor tbat she used to walk along,with him on the banks of are Arno, prior to his introduction by Mr. Mataxa. Heard that when they came to Eng. land they were in a Boarding-house. Mr. Daniel had paid the expenses ; the sister of Mr. Daniel, plaintiff's aunt, never dined along with Captain B. and the plain tiff. Captain Bowles belonged to the 83d regiment, and hail served in the Peninsular war. Captain B. did not visit plaintiff at Kensington. Plaintiff had not been confined in a convent to prevent her from forming an improper connexion by marriage with a peasant, named Bonachilli ; she was sent to the convent because, the family were going to remove from Prata to Pisa. Bo nachilli was a respectable man, though not of gentle blood—he was worth 61)0,000 crowns; the reason of refusing her to this man was, because she was too young at the time; there were two other persons that pad private addresses to Fanny and Elizabeth, plaintiff's sisters, to prevent which, Mr. Daniel was obliged to call in the aid of the justice of peace, but there was no Itat t s entertained on account of plaintiff , herself. (Here the Learned Sergeant enquired if Mr. Daniel bad sot al ready brought an action for seduction against the present defendant? Sergeant Wilde admitted that there bad been notice of such action, but it would not be proceeded in.) Examination resumed.—My daughter never corresponded with a person of the name of Grasse. He had a wife Obis own. Mts. Bridget Daniel examined by Mr.MNRkWRATHEN —ls sister to Mr. Daniel; received instructions from l him to search'for the plaintiff, and take her from under Captain B:s protection, or to see her married; found her at No. 83, Somerset -street, Portman-square, in July, 1825 ; saw defendant there ; asked him if he meant to marry her niece ? Captain B. replied, " That is im possible, for I am a married man, but I am willing to make all the reparation in my power. lam suing for a divorce from my wife, and it I succeed, I have no thjection to marry your niece." Told him I was in s!rucled to mks her away unless he married her imme diately ; he rather consented to her removal, as he said, that if it was known Charlotte lived with him, it would prejudice his suit for a divorce. My niece was then pregnant. Captain B. called me into the back room, and offered to settle 1101. a year on the plaintiff, and 1,0001. when she became of age, until he was in a state to marry her ; he gave me 1104 as the first year's allow ance, which I accepted, having had nn instructions to the contrary, and the next day I took my niece to Ken sington, where I placed her under the protection of a espectable female relative ; Captain Bowles called there mcas'onally ; plaintiff was not forced away from him; 1 slept in the house until he returned from Newmarket ; be never saw her after with my consent or that of her par cots. • Cross examined by Mr. Sergeant VAUGHAN—My niece passed under the name of Bowles ; I did not think it wrong to take the 1101. as maintenance; plaintiff never said it would break her heart if she was separated from him ; my niece once proposed to him for them to pass for brother and sister ; but he said, " Oh, no, mother and sister if you please." I asked him to marry her agreeable to the Boman Catholic rites, and he said he would, net, that it might subject him to an indictment for bigamy. By the Comm—Mr. Daniel is Deputy Commissary General of Its Majesty's Forces ; he was residing in Italy as a private Gentleman. Tile plaintiff's came having closed, Mr. Sergeant VAUGHAN addressed the Jury for the defendant. He would call no witnesses, but he contended .that a mutual promise of marriage must be shewn to entitle the plaintiff to a verdict. There was no proof of any seduction by the man—in fact, the girl appeared to be the seducer, and the Jury would set but little value on the affections of a woman whose favours were so easily won. The Learned Solon summed up the evidence. The ease had been fully sustained. The girl might have acted imprudently ; but the conduct of the defendant was not the less reprehensible; owe British Officer had shamefully seduced and wantonly ruined tha daughter of anothet. Verdict for plaintlffiDatnages 1,5001. ADBIIRALTY COURT, De ::uses is. Tda LIMY cArsesau.. This was a suit brought against the owners of the Lady Campbell East India Man, by Edward Barton, the Purser of that vessel, for the recovery of his wages. The owners did not deny that the claimant had earned the sum which be alleged to be due, but they contended that he was indebted to them in a larger sum, for the passage of his wife from Calcutta to England. Dr. lama, for the claimant, submitted that the Court had no jurisdiction to interfere in a case of passage-money. Dr. LUSHINGTON • on the other side, contended, that the claim of the owners was alike admissible in a Court of Law, or a Court of Equity; the present was in the nature of an action for auumpeit, and he contended that the Court was bound to allow the claim of the owners. Lord Svowem. said, that the jurisdiction of the Ad miralty Court was bounded by established usage. It was always admitted to have a jurisdiction in case of wages, but he never heard of an instance in which the Court bad taken congnizance of a claim for passage.money. It only remained, therefore, for the parties to establish their claim in a duirt of Law: The Court . pronounced for the claim of wages with costar WINTER HOME CIRCUIT—SURREY. Yesterday the /lenges for the county of Surrey commenced at Kingston ; but ;he cases tried were altogether unimportant. The trials of the man and woman charged with the murders at Fetcham are not expected to take place until Thursday. There are altogether upwards of 120 prisoners to be tried. Hamburgh Papers to the 14th have been received. On the Ist December his Swedish Majesty conferred on the Crown Prince the dignity of High Admiral. The I st is, it seems, the anniversary of the Prince's Patron Saint. Letters from Naples, of the 25th November,announce that the Austrian T. oo g is would finally leave the King dom of the Two Sicilies before the expiration of /827. Accounts from Copenhagen, of the 9;b, detcribe the herring fi.hery as more than ordinarily productive. In Norway winter had fairly stt in; at Christiana there had been several heavy falls of snow. M. Mahe Brun, one of the editors of the Journal des Debats, and a distingui.hed writer on geography and politics, died of apoplexy on Thursday evening last. A letter from La Guayra, of the 31st November, states, that Botavast's Secretary had arrived at Caratcas. It was reported that the acts of PAEZ had met with the approbation of BOLIVAR, and that Gen. Pans was a decided favourite with the people of Came . cas. Some fears are cotertained fur the safety of the Boat from La Guayra, as a Gentleman, who left that place tour days after it had sailed, 'artived at St. Thomas's, alter a pa s sage of eight days, at which time the Mail had not arrived.

On the contrary, these demonstrations are upon a scale of extent and activity for which the public mind had not been prepared at first, and which have afforded an agreeable surprise, to judge from the tranquil lizing effect they have had. It is certain that the nation has acquired confidence in the continuance of peace, in proportion to the energy displayed by its rulers; and as long as these keep pace there is not much risk of the former being converted into disap. pointment. With every disposition to do justice to the friendly sentiments of the French Cabinet towards this country, and to appreciate duly its pacific professions at this juncture, yet we do not build our faith upon them so much, as upon our own vigour and union for the preservation of peace. We cannot impress this truth too much, that we must In the guar dians of our own honour and tranquillity, if we wish to see them firmly upheld; and to transfer any part of this service to another Power, is to diminish the chances of success in the same proportion. We confess, as we have already said, that we place great reliance on the assurances recently given by the Court of the Thuilleries ; and as we wish to keep the Mi nisters of his MOST CHRISTIAN MAJESTY to them, we are anxious that our demonstrations should assume as imposing an appearance as possible. A vigorous display of the national resources at this time is not only consistent with an enlightened policy, .but with rigid notions of economy ; and we therefore hope that the expedition now destined for Portugal, is only the ad vanced guard of the force that will ultimately pro. ceed to that country. The present armament is sufficient to repel the immediate cause of danger, and perhaps to compel Spain 'to make a shew of reps• ration; but to obtain• substantial satisfaction, and to pull up by the roots the cause of quarrel, it will be necessary for Great Britain to make a far more impos ing show in the Peninsula. So far, too, from its having a tendency to irritate the pride or shock the interests of France, it will be a powerful inducement to her Govet n• went, to persevere in a course of pacific policy ; and, as it would be to endanger its very existence, were it to quit this course, we clearly consult the happiness of that Power, as much as we do the honour and se. curity of Great Britain, in recommending to her not to confine her efforts in behalf of Portugal to the present armament. In the meantime our opinion, re. Specting the continuance of peace, has not undergone the slightest change, though our confidence is not founded so Much up , .n what has been done, as upon %hat will be still done by the British Government, to check the temptation now or hereafter, on the part of 4lly Powerto violate. We have done too little, if we - intact that our measures :Wald corrss➢ond with our !lofty and uncompromising language—and too much, i rl s we wish to temporize. • It was again reported yesterday, thal.. , a formidable insurrection had broken out in Ireland ; but as we have the Dublin Papers of Saturday now before us, and they have not the slightest allusion to thil mischievous ru- mour, we may ventute, without much risk, to give it the most pointed contradiction. It was upon the whole a clumsy contrivance, to get up a report of thii descrip tion, because Ireland, however the rest of Europe may be affected by existing circumstances, has many reasons to rejoice at them; in the first place they will imme diately raise the value of her produce, in the next divert her thoughts from brooding too intensely and exclusively over local questions ; and, lastly, it must not be forgotten how agreeable they are to the martial ardour of her people. They will also relieve Government from a great deal of anxiety upon the important subject of employing her superabundant population; and the demonstrations that are now making, will contribute more effectually, and perhaps at a less expense, to this great purpose, than the most extensive and costly system of colonization. We are at a loss therefore to conceive why the alarmists have selected Ireland at this juncture, for the scene of their sinister speculations ; for if they bad any know. ledge of that country, they must have known that the measures which have been just adopted, are eminently favourable to her interests, besides flattering hermartial propensity, as we have already stated. Neapolitan Papers have reached us this morning to the 28th ult. but besides a Royal Ordonnance for work ing the mines of the kingdom, they do not contain a single article, worth extracting, or even referring to. We see that most of our contemporaries have copied the letters from our Correspondent at Portsmouth, which we published yesterday, without so much as hinting that they are indebted for it to the STAR. They will guard against the same oversight again. A Gentleman is in town who left Gibraltar on the 23d October; previous to his departure an order came to prepare two Regiments for embarkation for Portugal; from thence be pro ceeded to Cadiz and Lisbon ; at Cadiz the French garrison con sisted of ten thousand four hundred men. On his going up the Tagus he met two English ships of war going out, one was sailing to the Northward and the other to the Westward. A Regiment is owning from Malta to rqdace these going from Gibraltar.

By the last accounts received from America, relating to Mr. Kurt, the actor, his health is represented to be in a most shattered condition, and it is even doubtful if he will ever be able to return to England.
