CHARLES. SPEA9I7E;..

Last night, a grand ball was given by. the principal
French inhabitants here, to those of the English. Thisr
took place at the Theatre, where the pit was.floored
over, to connect with the stage, and the whole deco-1
rated with flowers and ornaments. Countess Delmore,
and many of the Irish Nobility were present. The whole
arrangements gave high satisfaction, and dancing was
kept up till three o'clock hest morning. This was in
compliment to the English residents, who gave a sing.
lar ball to the French some time ago. To W4O many
tithe French and English cordially meeting, or env
btacing during wiltaes, and proniotittg atilt Other a
arriusement, could not fail to. be the subject of son*
reflection, when one. considered the prodigious army
once assembled here by Bonaparte, and his boasted 10-
tilla, for an invasion of happy Albion. Ai I ant Mit-
ing at this, yoti must be Wormed,. that onit one of the
gan-hoats is to be seen here, all the others having been
broken up. Bonaparte little contemplated, in the
trouble and expense occasioned in fortning.sach a flo-
tilla, to attempt so deiperate an enterprize, that it was,
in the year 1823, to be cut into pieces and sold for fire-
wood, by the French who made it, and Boulogne would
be almost an English town! Many of the English hue
got snuff bases formed from pieces of this wood.
. The house possessed by Bonaparte is now occupied by
some English families That occupied by Marshal Ney,
the Hon. and Rev. Mr. Matiell, one of the English
Clergymen, inhabits! The splendid Cathedral, dente-
lished at the Revolution, Is only Marked by the Walk
remaining, and the interior is now occupied as a play.

VICF.-CIANCELLOR'S COURT, JANUARY
PIRACY OF THOMAS SIOOReS SONGS.
POWER V. MOH AND ANOTHXR._

Mr. STUART moved the Court for an injunction to
restrain the defendants from printing and publishing a
song, written by T. Moore, Esq. the celebrated Lyric Poet,
entitled, When Time, teho steals. our hours away... The
,Learned Counsel stated that this, among a variety of
*her songs, had been originally published by Mr.'
Moore, under the assumed name of Little, and had
;been transferred by him to Mr.. Carpenter. of Bond-
;street, from whom the plaintiff, Mr.POwer, of the Strand,
,purchased his interest, for 400 guineas; the right so
purchased was afterwards confirmed by Mr. Moore
himself. The defendants, who were the proprietors of
'a musical publication called the HeirniOnicon, had in-
troduced several stanzas, copied from the sang written
by Thomas Moore, and purporting to have been set to
music by the late r. Arnold. If the defendants could
:not be prevented from periisting in this species of pi-
'eacy, the plaintiff would be injured to the extent of
many thousand pounds, as it was a system which would
be ettendeclto other works exclusively hit property.
Loi.tAtin opposed the motion upon several
grOunds4 ,one of which was, that the original property
of Mr. Moore bad been abandoned; that license had
been given to Di. Arnold tointroduce it.htto a burletta.
entitled Fniry Reeds, or Lobe in the filiklands, per-
formed at the flayinarket Theatre, in the year 18012.
He also inferred, that the song was originally published*
as pistol a Collation of songs, someof wirier were of an
iaamotad tendency.
The Vice-CHArtortton was of opini6n, that mine Of
these grounds affected the title of the plaintiff to the ex--
elusive publication of the work in ttoestion; that the
license Which might haVe been tired to Dr: Arnold,
did nOt authorise any other person to Piiite the work ;,
and that the objection OR the ground of immorality,
not being applicable to the tong in question, formed
no pretence for the. COnit withholding its proteition.:—
His Honchir, therefore, anon the whole, was of Opinion
that the plaintiff was entitled to the injunction as
prayed ; he accordingly ordered that the defendants
might be restrained from Publishing the Aliens torn-
plained of.
