~~, -~~ *made, their own recollection would bear positive test anony. Among others, it had been insinuated that Sir Henry Mildmay had been ordered by the Lady %Ir. Primrose to go out of the- window of Lady Rosebarry's bed-chamber, and that he had gone out as he had been ordered, disgraced, spirit less, and lost to those manly feelings by which he had previously been characterised. The Jury would not fail to remember the evidence of Mr. Priturose upon this subject.: they would recal to their view the statement which Mr. Primrose bad made, with reference to this circumstance. Did it - appear, that he had- ordered Sir Henry. Mild may to depart, and that in a degraded manner the Hon. Baronet obeyed the order ? No ; it was clear that be was entreated to go— to avoid expo sure, to-prevent consequences which all were alike disposed to avoid-,-there was no order,: no mandate which it could have become Sir Henry Mildmay to resist ; and this imputation, if it bad been proved, he could not help thinking would have been worse than all that had been imputed ,to the Honourable Baronet. And why ? because it would have called in question that which was dearest to his heart, as a man of honour—his courage : and would have for ever banished him from that society in which he had before moved with such credit to - himself, and ho nour to the illustrious family of .'which he was a member. The Learned Counsel then combated the cho.rge of incest which had been hurled upon the Honourable Baronet by the Attorney-Gene ral, and appealed to the natural connexion of the parties, and the legal . construction of - that connexion, as to whether any such charge were founded. - He contended that it. was •to tally groundless. He afterwards lamented, that Lord Roseberry had not, upon discovering the feelings which subsisted between his Lady and Sir H. Mi instead of .a.eonditional restriction - upon their intercourses, interdicted it altogether. He was satisfied, if that had been the case, the task that day, thrown upon the JUry would have been avoided. In conclusion, he adverted to the. cir cuinstance of the parties having been thrown together as the consolers of each other for a luss which each equally deplored, namely, that of Lady Mildmay. In the bosom of Lady Roseberry Sir .Harry sought -consola tion, and . unhappily, but not unnaturally, a passion had taken. possession of his heart, which, from the complexion of his letters, had assumed rasher- the .eharacter .of distraction than of thel cool and. calculating - feeling, which, while it sought the possession •of its object,. was- undis tinguished. by the.finerfeelings of the soul. Finally, be ietreated the Jury to recollect the circumstances of the 'defendant, • and in forming their judgment to recollect that they might be called upon to mark •their sense of cases which, in point of atro city, might far exceed the.present. Mr. BtacitaLt., the Under Sheriff, thenpro eeeded to sun) up the case to the Jury, which he did very shortly, observing to them, that they were the Judges upon the occasion, and that it was with them to do that justice between "the parties which, upon a fair and impartial view, their own discretion and good sense, guided by a recollec tion of the injury sustained,_ and the relative situation of the plaintiff and defendant, might dictate. The Court was cleared, and re-opened after an. botir, when the Jury, by their Foreman,. Sir N. CONANT, returned a Verdict or FIFTEEN Ti - lOUSAND POUNDS. DAMAGES. Time ATTORNEY;-GENERAL, Mr. TOPPING, and Mr. D. F. JoNcs, were for the plaintiff: Mr. BROUGHAM, for the defence. • MAILS. itaravrn-2 France, 1 Lisbon, I Holland, 1 Guernsey and Jersey, I Dublin; • I Waterford. •Dvt:—.l Malta, 1 Hol land, 3 Hamburgh, I Dublin, I Waterfurd.

HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TO-MORROW. Morning, 37 minutes after 2. J Evening-, 2 minutes after 3. Til E SUN. soLEM UUIB DICEHE FALMUM AUDEAT ? LONDON, lIIOND4Y, DECEMBERI2,IBII. From our Naval News it .will be seen that there has been several late arrivals from.the other sick of the Atlantic.. We do . not understand that Go vernment has received any intelligence worthy of 'notice•by these vessels. Our private letters ihew tliat the Enetny, as well as ourselves, are making great exertions to meet ,the tug of - war should hoi tilitics continue. The following is the substance of our intelligence aterived from the Penelme:— "A report had reached Halifax, and was gene rally believed, that General DaumNotip had de feated the Americans with very considerable loss,. an d it was confirmed that the Enemy had blown up F or t Erie,- and retired precipitately to Sackett's IlarboUr. " Commodore CliAuNczy was blocked,up in Sackett's Harbour by Sir JAMES YEo, whose broad pendant was flyiog on boaid t h e S t. Law rence, three-decker. " At Isle-aux-Noiz we are building two gates, and. three brigs, to remedy our•disasters, and rettie•oe onr losses on Lake Clianapialn. "At Portsmouth (New Hampshire), the United States ship Independence was nearly ready for sea. She is rated 78, and tuounts 98 guni-42-pounders on her lower deck, 42's on her main-deck, 32's and 68's carronades on her quarterileck and'fore castle, with a complement of 1000 men; Com modore RODGERS is to command her. " At Philapelphiai the Guerriere, a new frigate, Was nearly ready for sea: She mounts 64 guns, 32-poundeis on her main-deck, 42-pounders on her quarter-deck, and a 68-pounder 'on each - of her • gangways; with a comPlement of 60 44 tnen. At Boston, the Constitution was ready for sea ; l and the Washington, of 90 guns fitting for sea very . fast. . "At New YOrk,thePresittent was ready for sea, and report says she has since sailed for the East " At New London, the United States and Mace donian frigates were dismantled, and•the Hornet sioDp was ready for sea." This. short statement of the Naval Means of America speaks volumes, and we hope %N;ill not fail to make a suitable impression, On our Naval Administrators. We,doubt not the readiness of the Admiralty .to send ships, but we doubt the ability of our ships, of the ame nominal class, to cope with those of the enemy. We observe in the above recapitulation a 78-gun ship mounting 98 heavy guns, :and manned with 1000 seamen, and a frigate mouOing 64 heavy guns, and manned with 640 seamen. This' creates 'a new era in maritime warfare, and requires a correspondent change or improvement in our system. We . liave no hesitation in asserting,, that the Nelson, the largest line of battle ship ever, built in England, is not-an equal match for the Independ ence. The greatest weight of the Nelson's metal is 321bers. the average only, 231bS: The greatest weight of the Independence's shot, is 68 poundsrs ; the average 401bs. The Nelson's compldment men, 875 of all sorts, able • seamen, _ordinary, landsmen, boys, cooks, cookg-inates, swabbers, sweepers, and_ iweepings. The' independoices cnmplement, 1000 picked A. B's. Measures must therefore be' adopted, to place our ships on an equality in every respect with those of the Enemy. By a Dutch Mail we have intelligence from Ghent to the 6th. Every thing looks pacific in that quarter, and the Negociations will, we trust, lead to an honodrable and secure peace. It is not necessary for us. to say_ how much we loath the worthlesss Faction which plunged America into this war, how much we despise the character which they and their Agents, Commanders, and followers have displayed in its progress ; and how firmly we are disposed to maintain, that no Peace with them can be goo for 'this country which is not "founded on • perfect security against - future treachery ; but still, with the present state of Europe full under our contem plation, we must say that we should greatly re joice in having to annOunee the Termination of a War in which much ,may be lost mid little can be . gained. The following are the principal extracts : e‘ BRUSSELS, DEc. 3.—The Negociations. at Ghent continue to be very active. The exchange of notes, and the arrival and departure of Eng lish couriers, continue daily. Notwithstanding the secrecy in Which the negociations ate involved, it is believed that England has abated of its first de mands, and that America; on the other hand, has mode some sacrifices : it is even hoped, that the , made of carrying on the Negociations will under go some change, and that personal conferences will succeed to the written notices. " BRUNSWICK, Nov. 29.=The Duke returned here this morning,having left Vienna on the 19th. His Royaf Highness passed three days at Oels, where his stibjects received him with transport, On. his arrival here, all those who have served with him in Spain assembled before the l'alace, with crowds of people, and testified their joy by repeated cheers.—(Amsterdam Courant , Dec: 7.) " GHENT, DEc. s.—lt is reported that the nglish . Government has giyen . secret instructions to its Commissioners to ded,t from the hardest FeteIISIOHS against the United States, or at least has so modified them, that they can no longer be obstacles to a favourable termination of the ciations." We have' French Papers to the 9th, but cannot find room for their contents. They are still filled with articles dated Vienna; but as these are not from the Austrian Press, they deserve no higher degree of credit than if they were given under the title of Paris news—at best they can be but 'prr vate letters, and, unless the character of the Writers are known, we can never receive such communications as worthy of consideration, beyond the mere speculative or interested opinion of Partizans. Several considerable military movements have taken pluce on the Continent, but we still think, rather with the view to preserving peace than to making war. The , Court Martial upon Lieutenant-General Sir JOHN MURRAY is ordered to assemble in this city (Winchester) •on Monday, the . 'l6th of January next. It will be holden 'in the Grand Jury-Room of the-Castle; applic ition to: that effect•having been made by his Majesty's. Judge Advocate to the High Sheriff of this County, and which re quest has been granted.—( S alisbury and Tinches (6- Journal, Dec. 10.) , • We are under the neee%§ity of postponing till to-morrow omr Promised Reniaihs upon the/sub ject of the Monument to the Memory. of the late Lord INIELvILLE. Our-pages are this day disgracefully 'occupied with - the details of, a Trial, which adds another deep stain to the annals of Adultery in High Life. The fearful perversiOn of moral principles, and disregard of every social and sacred duty dis played on this melancholy occasion,will, we trust, operate as a beacon against the indulgence of criminal passions, without the aid of persuasion to enforce the palpable truth, that flae lair fruit of vice is, indeed full of bitterness and ashes. We hear that the LordS of• the Treasury have signified to the parties 0 interested, that the Repeal of the Excess of DraWback on Glass is intended to_ take place from the date of the, Resolution which has passed the HouSe of Commons for that purpose. A Gentleman who left Ghent on Monday Fast (says a Morning Paper), states that amongst the American Diplomatists the impression seemed to be, that most, if not all the 'leading points were settled, and.•that there was a great probability of peace. • The same opinion prevailed on'Saturday in the. City, but nothing has transpired, in any shape, from authority. . We have received 'West" India Papers,- among which are Dominica to the latter end of October. The Colonial Session of Parliament was opened at .Roseau on the 10th October. . In the speech of Governor AINSLIE to the Council, he congratu , .fates it on the Maroons having been subdued,. with. the exception of one NOEL, the assassin of Mr. 114/102ARLAgE, who continued at the head of some few desperadoes. By letters from Cadiz to the 19th ult. we learn that the expedition to the Spanish settlements in America, which-had been so long delayed, on ac count of the fever, was about to sail for its desti nation. The troops composing it amount to full 10,000 men. • • On Saturday his Highness the COMMANDER IN CHIEF left town for Windsor, and in the evenink returned to Oatlands, to dine with her Royal Highness the Duchess of YORK. , This day' his Royal Highness will ,arrive at his Office at the Hors© Guards, and in the 'evening return to Wind sot', • in order to meet his 4.10yal Highness the PRINCE REGENT. • • Saturday the Duke of KENT presided at first meeting of the Highland Society, held at the Free masons' Tavern ; Sir Aficnizato M C DONALD was the Vice-President. The British - and German- Officers, absent on leave from our army in Brabant, have received or ders forthwith to join their respective corps. The Journal de Paris has been suspended, in consequence of having published a false state ment of the Duke of TARENTO'S speech, with the evident view of Causing alarm and' discontent throughout the army. . The American yellow fever is said to have broken out at Cadiz and Porto Real,.in Andalusia. A frigate, had arrived at Cadiz from the Haven nah, bringing nearly four millions of piastres for the merchants. The new French Treasury Bills continue to fall. They are at 6 2-3 per cent discount. The funds remain at 71 1-5. According to letters of the 9th of October from . Smyrna, the ravages of the plague had scarcely ceased when a epidemic fever broke out s to which numbers of the inhabitants had fallen victims. • Last June, a fatal duel took place near Fort George, -,Madras, between Lieut. R— and Capt. both, it is believed, of the 47th regiment. Lieut. 11-- was killed on the spot, and Captain badly wounded in the body. Sir HARRY MILDMAY and ,Lady ROSEBERRY, on their landing'at Dieppe, immediately proceeded to. Rouen, where they made some stay,.and have now a house fn,tlie vicinity of Paris. THE PRINCESS OF \VALES.--A letter from Naples, dated Nov. 28, says—" The - KING yesterday re viewed 9000 infantry and. six squadrons of ca valry. An elegant tent was raised for her Royal Highness the Princess of WALES, in such a man ner that she could have a full view of the ma noeuures, The Queen of Naples accompanied the Princess; The 'Officers of English squa (Won, the Ministers of the Foreign Powers, and the first personages of the State assembled to pay their respects to the Princess. After the review, with which she was highly gratified, the Queen and her Royal Highness, followed by the whole Court, prodeeded to the splendid teiit of King Joachim, where a grand dinner was served up. WINDSOR, DEC. 11.-- , Y6lCrday . her MAJESTY bad a select party to tea and cards.—This morning the Royal Family. had Divine Service performed in the Castle by her Majesty's Chaplain in waiting. Owing to the continued wet weather, the Royal Family did not leave the Castle. The Royal Hunt will take place to-Morrow at Stoke-green, :and on Friday at the Crooked Billet,. near Staples ; each day at half-past ten o'clock. L'ESTRANGE went to visit NAT. LEA in a mad house. " Mr. LEE," sap lie, " I fear you do not know me ;" " Not know you ?" " says the Poet— " Custom may alter, men and manners change, But I am still strange LRE, and you are still L'ESTRANQE." A reward of lOU guineas is.otfered in Saturday's Gazette-for the discovery of the murderer of Mr. PUTNAM, in Greenwich Park; on Saturday week, and a free' pardon to .any accomplice making such discovery.
