THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 16, 1861,

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.)
JUDGMENT-FLOOD V. PATERSON.

His Honour, the Master of Rolls, said—The question on
this summons, which was adjourned from Chambers, is
whether the statute of limitations bars the plaintiff from
recovering his debts. The plaintiff is the legal personal
representative of the creditor, and the defendant is the
legal personal representative of the debtor, and the defen-
dant as the legal personal representative of her hus-
band has proved his will in Jersey. Sho has
proved the will of her husband, who was the debtor. In
the meantime the only question is whether there was any
person in this country whom the creditor could sue during
the time that the statute was running through the term of
limitations. The question arising under this statute does
not arise under the Commercial Mercantile Amendment
Act, as it arose before the passing of that Act. The facts
of this case were these—this debt was originally
contracted in 1842, but interest was paid on
the debt up to September, 1849. The debtor died in
July, 1850. And there was probate of his wilPin the court
of Jersey. And the question is whether the Mercantile
Acts was retrospective, so as to enable any person to sue
who was not residing in Jersey at the time? It is quite
clear that the law laid down in the case of " Jackson
v. Wooley" was correctly laid down. There it was
clearly established that the statute had no retrospective
operation, and therefore nothing can be taken from
the act. I fully concur in the decision of the
Court of Exchequer Chamber in that case, that the
the act of Parliament intended to give a remedy to persons
to recover their debts, but it had no retrospective operation.
It did not take away any previous rights. The creditor
here could not sue the debtor in this country or in Jersey.
And the question is whether there was any person in this
country that could be sued prospectively ? It could not
apply to the plaintiff because he issued his summons
against the executrix, and renewed it again in 1858. lam
quite clear that that summons was not ineporative, be-
cause it could not be carried out. His Honour referred
to the case of Webster v. Webster, 10 Vessey, as a decision
on this point. And, moreover, the defendant came from
Jersey to this country to see the Exhibition here in 1851.
His Honour said—l am of opinion-that the Statute of
Limitations does not bar the plaintiff from suing her in
this country, and as the statute does not bar his claim, the
plaintiff is entitled to the benefit which the act gives him to
establish his claims against her. The costa of suit will be
added to the plaintiff's claim.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before Justice Blackburn.)
COLBITRN V. ZONES AND ANOTHER.

This was an action on a charter party. Mr. M. Smith
appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Prideaux for defendants.
Mr. Colburn was the master of a ship called the Martha
Whitmore, of Newport, and defendants were merchants at
Bristol. On the 25th of April the plaintiffs entered into a
charter party with the defendants to proceed after leaving
a cargo at Baltimore to a port in New Brunswick, and
take in for the charterers a cargo of deals and timber.
In the charter party there was a provision that
the ship should pay £25 towards the lighterage.
The ship proceeded to New Brunswick, and took in the
cargo, when Mr. Defreses agent there claimed several
sums for carrying out the cargo amounting in all to £125.
Carrying ;out the cargo meant bringing it out of the
country. The condition was that the plaintiff as charterer
was liable to pay the whole claims. It was contended by
the defendants that the custom of the port was for those
charges to be all defrayed by the ship. The defendants
had paid £5O into Court to cover the lighterage, but denied
their liability for the remainder.

The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiffs for £5l ls. 6d.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

The judges in this court were occupied the whole of th•
morning in hearing the arguments in a very complicated
enclosure case. The question involved was whether Lord
Portsmouth had the power to enclose 300 acres of land of
Anstey Manor, contrary to the wish of a gentleman named
Mr. Partridge, who had an interest therein.

THE BONAP.ARTE FAMILY.

A most interesting case will come before the Tri-
bunal of First Instance at Paris on the 25th of the
present month. Madame Bonaparte, first -wife of
the late Prince Jerome Bonaparte, ex-King of
Westphalia and uncle of the Emperor Napoleon,
and her son by her marriage with the Prince, claim
to inherit their part of the personal property left by
the Prince. Madame Bonaparte, who I believe is
now in Paris, was, aS you are aware, an American
lady named Paterson, and the real object of the
present suit is to re-establish the perfect legality of
her marriage. "By attempts renewed during the
last few years," says the printed memoir drawn up
by Madame Bonaparte's legal advisers, M. Berryer,
advocate, and M. Legrand, avoue,
" By means of writings recently published it has been
tried to annul the character and vitlidity of the most solemn
acts, in spite of the sanction they have received and the
positive prescriptions of our laws. The best established
facts have been denied or misrepresented, and an attempt
will be made before the Tribunal to cause the illegal acts
of arbitrary power, and the opinions servilely repeated by
men without any judicial authority,* to prevail over the
fundamental principles of law and of social order "
A short sketch of the early career of Jerome
Bonaparte is then given. He entered the naval
service in 1803—his brother, the future Emperor,
being then lirst Consul—and proceeded from Mar-
tinique on board of a merchant vessel to the United
States. If he were born, as stated, in 1784, he would
then have been only 19 years of age ; but from a
communication of General Smith, uncle of Miss
Paterson, his commission as officer showed him to
have been 22. He was introduced in the month of
May to the family of Mr. Paterson, " one of the
richest and most respectable citizens of Maryland."
Jerome became enamoured of Mr. Paterson's
daughter, and after some time proposed marriage.
After due inquiry as to whether any difficulties,
legal or otherwise, existed, the suitor was accepted.
Jerome announced to his family in France his
approaching marriage. The French Charge
d'Affaires to the United States communicated to his
Government the particulars of the negotiation, and
the despatches containing them are still in the
archives of the French Foreign-office. The cere-
mony took place with great solemnity at Balti-
more, on the 24th of December, 1803, and the con-
trat de maniage was signed by Jerome, his wife,
and his wife's father; and witnessed by Mr. J.
Carrol, of Baltimore, by the V ice-Consul of France,
by M. de Camus, a French citizen, afterwards
Minister of Foreign Affairs in Westphalia; and by
Commodore Barney, of the United States' navy.
The ceremony was performed by the Roman
Catholic Bishop of Baltimore, who delivered the
following certificate :

"Baltimore, Dec. 24, 1803.

•
"-With licence, I this day united in the holy bonds of
marriage, is conformity with the rites of the Holy Catholic
Church, Jerome Bonaparte, brother of the First Consul of
France, with Elizabeth Paterson, daughter of William
Paterson, Esq., of the City of Baltimore, and of Dorcas
Spear, his wife.

"t Y., Bishop of BALTIMORE."
This certificate was verified by the French Vice-
Consul, Henry Vernet.

" Such were the solemnities of the marriage of M. Jerome
Bonaparte with Miss Paterson," observes the memoir.
" No opposition was sent from France, when the projected
union bad been known many months before. The whole
year 1804 passed over without protest, or any sign of
discontent disturbing the quiet and honour of the Paterson
family, or troubling the happiness and mutual affection of
the young couple."

It was only when the First Consul became Em-
peror, and " when he was preparing for his family
the distribution of so many Royal and sudden
grandeurs to impose respect and dread of his
power on the Sovereigns of Europe," that the
marriage of his brother Jerome appeared, in the
words of M. Thiers, "opposed in the last degree to
his political designs."

The Emperor compelled his mother, Madame
Letizia, to sign a protest against her son's marriage,
as being contracted without her consent previously
obtained, and the Emperor Eimself issued a decree
forbidding it to be entered in the register of the
offices of State. The memoir shows at some length
that all this was of no effect towards annulling the
marriage.

Meantime Jerome Bonaparte and his young wife
left the United States for Europe. They landed at
Lisbon. Jerome proceeded to meet his brother, and
sent his wife on to Holland, where she was to wait
for him. He left Lisbon on the sth of April, 1805,
and it was the last time she saw her husband.
Several letters from Jerome to his wife are given
in the memoir, all breathing the warmest affection,
and expressive of the most unshaken fidelity. On
the 6th of May, 1805, the Emperor wrote thus to
his brother :

"Your union with Miss Paterson is null in the eyes of
religion and the law. Write to Miss Paterson to return to
America. I shall give her a pension of 60,000 f. on con-
dition that in no case shall she bear my name, to which she
has no right, by reason of the non-existence of the union.
Inform her, of yourself, that you have not been able, and
that you cannot, change the nature of things."

The " nature of things" which Jerome could not
change was the elevation of the Bonaparte family to
the rank of sovereign families, but of recent date,
and subsequent to the marriage.
The Emperor addressed at the same time similar
injunctions to his brother Lucien (afterwards Prince
of Canino), " whose marriage, contracted with
Madame Jouberton some years previously, seemed
also disfigured by the same mesalliance in the ayes
of the triumphant man who had just added to the
title of Emperor of the French that of King of
Italy." Lucien received a letter, declaring that
" Madame Lucien would never be recognised by the
Emperor, because her son might be called to in-
herit the throne, and the Emperor owed it to the
dignity of his crown not to expose this immense
inheritance to the issue of a marriage contracted
against his will."

Lucien was not the man his brother took him for;
to his threats he answered as follows :

" You conclude by tracing out for me the line of conduct
I ought to pursue—viz., to destroy the contract which has
united us for the last three years—to bring back to Paris my
wife changed into a concubine ; to separate my daughters
from their mother, who have found in her their parent ; to
acknowledge my two children illegitimate. And you call
that a simple proceeding 1 And you think that after having
divided a poor family, dishonoured my wife, disinherited
my children—that after having deprived them of their
name and their position, which is no longer mine, but theirs,
I should find compensation for so much baseness in the
graces and favours which you say would enable my illegi-
timate children to live honoured and happy ! Sir, I respect
in you the organ of the Emperor. Know, however, that
rather than descend to such infamy I would immolate my
son and my daughter with my own hand. . . . More-
over—l am again writing to his Majesty—excepting the
sacrifice demanded of me, I am ready to make all others
that may be thought useful to France. My dignities belong
to the Emperor. The choice of the place of my retreat be-
longs to him. When he commands me to change it I will
obey without a murmur ; if ho requires it I will quit Europe,
but I will not quit my wife and children except with my life,.
" Pesaro, May 25, 1805. " LUCIEN BONAPARTE."
Lucien refused to separate from his wife ; she
survived him, and their affection remained unal-
tered to the last. Meantime Madame Jerome
Bonaparte continued to receive from her husband
the same affectionate letters as before.

The Emperor next addressed himself to the
Pope (Pius VII.) and demanded a bull annulling the
marriage of his brother Jerome. He descended to
wilful mis-statements of the case. For instance, he
said that Jerome had been only one month in
America when he married; whereas he arrived in
May, and married on the 24th December. He
alleged scruples of conscience, on the ground that
Miss Paterson was a Protestant ; " and," he said,
" it was important to France that a Protestant girl
should not be near the Emperor;' whereas, the
Princess of Wurtemberg, whom Jerome afterwarde
married, at the instance of his brother, was a Pro-
testant. The Pope refused to annul the ,marriage.
"' If we usurped an authority,' he said, wl'tich we do
not possess, we should become guilty of a most aOominable
abuse before God's tribunal and the whole Church ; and
your Majesty, in your justice, would not wish us to pro-
nounce a judgment contrary to the testimony of of
Zr con-
science and the invariable principles of the Church.
Again an attempt was made to extort the bull,
and again the Pope refused.
Madame Jerome Bonaparte, who was ignorant of
what was going on against her, proceeded to Ens-

land, and there, on the 7th of July, 1805, gave birth
to a son, the party to the present suit. Certificates
of his birth and baptism are all given in fell in the
memoir. Madame Bonaparte remained in London
until November, 1805, where she continued to
receive the same affectionate letters from her hus-
band. But *she grew tired of the solitude in which
she was left, and, finding her position embarrassing,
she resolved to return to America, which she did
in November, 1805.

Not long after this the letters of Jerome to his
wife became less affectionate. The memoir explains
this change:—

" Since the Treaty of Peace of Presburg the Electro,
Duke of Wurtemberg, had obtained with the title of King
considerable territorial a:grandisement, and the hand of his
daughter, now become Princess Royal, was already destined
for the youngest of his (the Emperor's) youngest brothers.
Was Jerome ignorant of these projects when on the 20th of
Juze, 1806, he wrote from Martinique to his wife a letter
reproaching her for having left Holland ?"

This letter was of evil omen. The reproach of
having left Holland was most unjust on the part of
one who, having brought his wife from the United
States to Europe, had abandoned her at Lisbon ;
had told her to repair to Amsterdam; and soon after
ordered her to return to America. On the 17th of
July, 1806, he addressed his last letter to " Madame
Bonaparte, at Baltimore ;" it made no announce-
ment of the project of his brother; it contained
commonplace compliments, and consisted of four or
five lines.

On the Ist of June, 1806, an act was prepared
which the memoir describes as " a melancholy
monument of the vices engendered by the servile
weakness and the guilty condescension of ecclesi-
astical authorities to the exactions of a Govern-
ment. This was a sentence issued by the Arch-
bishop of,Paris annulling the marriage of Jerome
with Miss Paterson, an act which the head of the
Church to which the Archbishop belonged had
previously and repeatedly resisted as illegal and
opposed to the dogmas of the Church. The Arch-
bishop had the baseness to declare " that there was
no marriage contracted between the minor Jerome
and Elizabeth Paterson ; that the alleged marriage
was null and clandestine, having taken place with-
out the publication of banns, without the consent of
the minor's mother, from which there resulted a
presumable rapt de seduction, without the presence
of a proper priest,* in a foreign country, &c."
The Emperor having at last persuaded the King
of Wurtemberg and the Emperor of Russia that his
brother was free to contract a new union, Jerome
was married on the 12th of August, 1807, to the
Princess Frederica Catherine of Wurtemberg, and
in December of the same year was proclaimed
King of Westphalia.

In May, 1808, Jerome sent a person to the
United States to claim his son and bring him to
France. From the letter which he wrote to his
father-in-law, Mr. Paterson, it appeared what little
value he set on the acts which annulled his Ameri-
can marriage. In it he spoke of giving his son the
position " suitable to his birth and rank ;" bringing
him up in the rank which belongs to him, he
should thus diminish the grief he felt at being far
from <his mother, and repair all the evil which the
great political interests he was bound to respect
had done us," &c. In a letter to his wife of the
same date he says he " counts upon a more happy
future," and "nothing will ever make me forget
the bonds which unite me to you, and the tender
attachment which I have vowed to you for life."
Madame Bonaparte refised to part with her child.
Another long letter is given, dated Cassel, the
22d November, 1808, from Jerome, now King of
Westphalia, to his American wife, in which he pro-
poses to give her for her residence and that of his
son " a noble palace, comfortable and in every
respect worthy of you, at Smalcalden, about 30
leagues from Cassel," and also " the title of Prince
and Princess of Smalcalden, for you and your son,
with a yearly revenue of 200,000 francs." He
also wrote to his son, who was then only three
years old.

Madame Bonaparte refused to answer hi 3 letters,
and rejected his offers.
Three years passed without any further corre-
spondence. In Februay, 1812, Jerome again wrote
to his wife and son, and assured the farmer that
" sooner or later all would be arranged." Un-
changed by the assurance "that all would be ar-
ranged sooner or later," Madame Bonaparte treated
his letters in the same manner; she refused to
answer them. But the next step she took was to
demand from the tribunals of her own country a
divorce from the husband who had abandoned and
repudiated her. She was divorced a vincula matri-
mond in January, 1813, by an act passed in the
House of Representatives and Senate of Maryland,
"reserving her own rights and those of her son."
In 1819 she came to Europe, and was received
with much cordiality by the members of her hus-
band's family. Joseph, the elder brother of the
Emperor, proposed to give
,his daughter in mar-
riage to Madame Bonaparte's son. The Princess
Catherine of Wurtemberg and Madame Letizia,
the mother of the Emperor, highly approved
the project. Many letters are given in the memoir
from the various members of the Bonaparte family,
all couched in affectionate terms, and all recognising
the relationship of Madame Bonaparte and her son,
as if nothing had occurred. The marriage did not
take place with his cousin, the daughter of Joseph.
M. Jerome Bonaparte visited Italy in 1827, and
was received in the same affectionate manner by
his grandmother, aunts, uncles, and cousins, as
proved by the ample correspondence contained in
the memoir. He returned to America and married
in 1829. He received letters of congratulation from
all his relations. Madame Letizia, his grand-
mother, wrote thus : _ _ _

"Nov. 10, 1829.

"My dear Son,—l have heard with pleasure of your
marriage, as the person you have chosen possesses all the ad-
vantage 3 one could desire. I earnestly pray that you may
be happy in the union you contract, and if my blessing can
contribute to it it will be complete and lasting. I beg of
you to present my affectionate wishes to your betrothed,
thomgh I have not the pleasure of knowing her. Your
father is still in the country ; he will not return before the
15th. He is well, as also your brother and your sister (the
present Prince Napoleon and Princess Mathilde), I em-
brace you tenderly.
" Your affectionate mother,
" MADAME."

Similar letters of congratulation were addressed
to M. Jerome Bonaparte on the birth of a son in
1831.

The Princess Mathilde, daughter of the ex-King
of Westphalia, was married in 1840 to M. Anatole
Demidoff. Her brother, Prince Napoleon, lost no
time in informing M. Jerome Bonaparte of the
event, and he concludes in these words :
" I embrace you, dear Jerome, as also your wife and child,
and I am for life your devoted brother and friend,
" NAPOLEON BONAPARTE."

M. Demidoff also informed him of his marriage
with his sister, the Princess Mathilde; the wife of
Joseph, ex-King of Spain (then known as Count de
Survilliers) did the same; and the Princess Mathilde
herself wrote as follows :

" Nov. 17, 1840.
:My dear Brother,—l believe you will learn with all the
interest of a sincere friendship the conclusion of my mar-

riage.
" My new condition realizes all the hopes which I had
anticipated. But, while lam happy, lam not the less at-
tached to all the affectionate sentiments which I professed
affections. Give my affectionate
before my marriage, and you know, my dear Jerome, what
a share you have in my
compliments to my sister-in-law, though I have not the
pleasure of knowing her; assure her of my affection for
her. A thousand compliments from the Baroness.
0 Your most affectionate sister,
"MATHILDE.

"Kiss my little nephew for me."
When Prince Louis Napoleon 'went to America
after the " affair" of Strasburg, M. Jerome
Bonaparte offered him his house as a residence.
The Prince (the present Emperor) replied :
•' My dear Cousin,—li a month I begin my journey to
the interior. The first thing I mean to do is to pay you a
visit. I remember with pleasure the time we passed
together at Rome and Florence.
" Farewell, my dear cousin; receive the assurance of my
friendship,
" LOUIS NAPOLEON BONAPARTE."
On the Ist of January, 1853, M. Bonaparte con-
gratulated his cousin on his becoming Emperor—
