It is at once formally and so lemnly avowed that the will of the Kum sha:l be a law to.the Junta.-the instructions of his Ministers their im plicit rule of action. After this portentous declaration, it is ev:dent that the appellation of consultative is a =isomer. -The Junta is rather to act according to the previous consultations of others, and it would seem that their functions are to be limited to a duty much the same as that of compurgatora in our ancient Courts of Law —persons who are ready to avouch that the acts, past and future, of . the SOVEREIGN and his Ministers, are the wisest, the hest, and the most laudable that could have been devised. Their labours, however, are to be directed to tl.e ac- • complir.iiment of many magnificent objects, some or i hich are sufficiently di ffi cult of attainment—such as the means of maintaining the splendour of the Throne by adequate taxation—and by raising loans—the irate; grity of his Nlaaeszir's ancient dominions; that is, the recovery of the revolted provinces: and last, not leas?, the uniting the People and the Priesthood in one com mon interest. It is here, then, officially avowed, though unhappily too notorious already, that: the Nation and the Priesthood are at present separate bodies,. pursuing different interests. It remains therefore to be seen, though not very difficult to be predicted, which class is to recede from its pretensions. That gallant and high minded nation, whose ancestors for a thousand years were often iu the first, seldom in the second rank, of arts, arms, and civilization—that heroic pto. ple who, when hope was despair, when all was lost but their own native energies, took up their Cross, and manfully (ought out the salvation cf their beloved country—those very Spaniards arc now doomed to crouch abjectly tinder the pitiless 'lash of a decrepid hierarchy—a miserable and blinded priesthood, who, in enslaving the minds acd bodies of their fellow-men, lose the consciousness of being connected with them by the ties of consanguinity and common interest, and are preparing the medicine which will hasten the dissolu tion of the Spanish Monarchy, if not erase its very name from the list of independent nations. The whole people of Spain, high and low, Rulers and sub-1 jects, seem so romple.ely entangled in the net of stupid superstition and priestcraft, that there now appears no prospect of averting tht ir sad fate— not even in the distant horizon a cloud as big as ir man's hand to promise future salvation. The last hope of every friend to Spain seemed to have anchored on the counsel likely to spring from that union of in. tcllect, rank, and consideration, for which the proposed Junta gave fair opportunity. But their prostrate ser vility in this their opening address—their utter want of wisdom to remedy—nay, of perception to com prehend the causes cleating those manifold calami ties which afflict their country, is so palpably evinced in their own words, that nothing remains for the people of England, who, in the hour of trial, had signally 'proved themselves the best and most disinterested friends of the Spanish nation, but to sympathise with them over misfortunes which really seem to be the work of an over-ruling power.

WINDSOR, OCT. 18.—His MAJESTY'S phaetons were in readiness yesterday afternoon for a considerable time, but the weather continuing unfavourable, the KING, 'and his Royal Highness the Duke Of CUMBERLAND, were prevented from taking their usual airing. In the evening his MAJESTY entertained his guests and suite, consisting of the following distinguished characters, at dinner Duke of DORSET, Prince ESTEItHAZY, Earl and Countess LiEyEs, Earl and Countess MoUNT CHARLES, Marquis, Marchioness, Lady E. and Lord A. CONYNGHAM, Sir A. BARNARD, &C. His MAJESTY'S private band was in attendance. At two o'cicck Monday afternoon Lis MAJEsTY's pony phaetons (consisting of two single and one double bodied) were in readiness at the Royal Lodge, and shortly afterwards his MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duke of CUMBERLAND, left and drove him..elf through the plantations skirting Bkhopsgate to Virginia Water. His MAJESTY was soon followed by the LORD Srew- ARD and Sir %V. linicirroN, in a second phaeton, and the aLubfe bodied with postillions and four ponies, con tainhig Earl arid Countess MOUNTCUARLES, Sir A. BARNARD, and Lord A. CoNYNGUAM, the whole C';r• lege attendee' with cuuiders in full state liveri s.—llis MAJESTY and the Royal Duke alighted turn) the phae• ton, and einbarked on board the pleasure-boat, and made an excursion on the lake ; the surrounding scenery of which is allowed by many not to he sur passed in point of na , ural beauty. Royal Party remain d about; twenty minutes at Virginia Water, and aftersvar ds continued their drive to Crairbourn, and returned by Sandpit G .te back to the Royal Lodge. Ye.terday Prince EsTEurrAzY, the Duke of DORSET, and Count Lter - LN, took an airing on horseback, in the Great Park. r in country may be a4ciut fourteen or sixteen to one of the 'toivn-folks. This" certainly makes a great dis ta in the way of convenience, whereas, were the bifilting in a centrat)situation, many for whose lucal convenience such a conspli.xnce was made would most recescarily attend. On.th.e crntrary, few people would go from the town, five or six miles in the country, being much less accustomed to excursions under a burning sun, than the sons of rustic toil '—add to which, the want of places of 'entertainment lot men and hois, s,' so very easily procured in the town. It' our calculati n f the relative pr,pottion of Presby terians in the tr,w3 and country be anything near the mark, we are fe.. , r:111 of the result. The white popula tion ate on the decrease, and every day manifests the truth of this proposition. We are not, in such grave undertakings, to indulge in soaring into the regions of fancy ; . we ate to penetrate into facts, and to weigh well their conssquences. An elegant church, amply en do ored b? the rich, will adorn the town, and if well supplied by a pious man, may be productive of much good. We have only further to suggest, that a Gram mar School Establishment in this town, or its imme dia.e vicinity, might be placed under the supe•intend ance of its Minister, who should be a young man, which w..tild add to his emoluments, as well as to the wealth. of the town. It cunductdd on liberal principles, we have no doubt but you:h would be sent from every quarter of the country, to a town whose salubrity is equal, it not sil k erior to any tither in the island." SPAILV. P.!CPOSITI^N PRESENTED TO HIS MAJESTY BY TILE ROYAL CONSULTAUVE JUNTA OF GOVERNMENT, ON 'ME DAY OF THEIR INSTALLATION. Stan—Your Consultative Junta of Government, in this first moment of their installation, are not in a si ltation to act or to advise. The Members theteof, sur prised at the honours and confidence you bestow upon us, in your Sovereign Decree of the 13th instant, are alternately agitated by the most profound gratitude, and a dread of our incapacity ci insufficiency. Your Majesty traces out for us the road to success, and also to that prosperity you wish for your people and vassals, and you enjoin us to suggest to you tie means, by aiding your Council of Ministers. Our Leads a.e not such as your Maj•:sty seeks—such as the Government merits—n u• such as Spain requires. But we do not hesitate to affirm, that your Majesty is not rnis• taken in the fidelity of our hearts. Indefatigable,. Sir, we will devote ourselves to labour, mendi cating will) docility, information and learning, from those who know. Faithfully observing your Ma jesty's seseie I.reaept, secrecy, screening or disfiguta- 1 tion shall not be found among us. The ingenuous ness and candour of our sentiments shall not be sacri ficed to considerations of interest, or private views. Ko partiality or party spirit shall bear us away. Our integrity shall not be dismayed by the dread of the enmity or persecution which usually attend ; we will endure its shafts with undaunted constancy. fhe glory of your Majesty, the splendour and per retuity of your Throne, the integrity of your here ditary dominions, the decorum of )our august family, the indissoluble union of the Empire and Priest hood, the re-establishment of the fame the Spa nish St rte once enjoyed among other Powers, the encouragement of individual tidies, endeavouring to bind them to those a•f the' State and G.ivernment ; the replacing of so many defiaieneies and losses ex perienced ; the adaptation of the contributions to possi bility, and no more; the consolida.ion of a credit to supply the • place when contributions fail; the saving of everything !;.at may not be indispensably necessary ; the suspension of all allowances not arising out of just demands; retrenchments which ds not Wing with them indigence; reforms and moJifications, which may re animate the nation without depressing the subjects. Such will be the objects for the guidance of the Junta; arid the will cf your Majesty, and the directions of your Council of Ministers, shall be their only rule of action.Th Junta will perish a thousand times rather than be wanting to your Majesty.—Madrid, Sept. 26,1825. ft fere follow fourteen signaiures.] TIIE EVENING STAR e,.•N!1f10.., w ROYAL lIUNT.

Each of the public cabriolets is said to be farmed by the driver at 18s. each day.

DAVIS' &ma rrs.—Friday, the Middleton, Reed, ar rived at Aberdeen, with 12 fish, 150 tuns of oil ; left the ice the 17th September, and confirms generally the unfavourable accounts received by the Enterprise and Monarch, and agrees as to the state of the weather, and consequent disasters with which it had been at tended. The Caledonia, Todd, of Kirkaldy, with eight or ten fish, passed Aberdeen on Wednesday, as have also several other large vessels, supposed to be whalers, within these two or three days. And as about forty sail left the fishing ground with the Enterprise, many of these whale fishing ships must be on the coast, and may be daily expected to arrive at their ports of dtstination. The typhus fever is raging in the suburbs of Car lisle, to a melancholy excess. There are several patients lying now in the House of Recovery, suffering under the affliction of that baneful disorder. The cholera mori,us, ton, a disease, the ravages of which are equal only to it; severity, also prevails, especially among the working classes. The best preventives against the approach (1 these disorders, are cleanliness and sobriety in the former case, and Is strict attention to . proper food in tl e latter. Ytsterday was the anniversary of Hain Fair, at Charlt.ut, neat Greenwich. Tzle fineness of the early part of the mottling drew together a great number of persons, to witness the usual scene of frolic and fun, which commenced at twelve o'clink. A number of Jerusalem ponies went in procession, mounted each by a man, wearing a large pair of horns on his head, the supposed gilt of his trail fair one. Scalcely had this been 6ni.hed, when a heavy shower of rain came on, which damped the ardour of the visitors, who were obliged to 'Pend the remainder of the day in quaffing, and offering sacrifice; at tt.c shrine of, blue ruin and keava wet! `liiiii~lf~i SURREY SLSSIOAI KINGSTON, OCT. re. The General Quarter Sessio ns f ar the C ~.:.•.t , Sut;ey commenced liere-..this•-d a y,i, d f dtets _ \44...:. BARNARD, Esq. the Chaiiinan, and a full 13..!i:t1i. • --..--. Mr. PALIIRR, in reference to a Report that had , presented to the Court, by a Committee to 1 ' v i ial had been referred to inquire into the expedi e .. l. discontinuing the further tr:e of the above pii,or.,-1, that it appeared by the evidei , ce ajdoced b„. the Committee, that the "tr.tal experse of ; I t t vi, amounted to the annual sum of something ,b c ., ied cb , ,, and he was of opinion, that as this sum did not el t . half a farthing in the pound on the county rates, it: below the consideration of any Gentleman in the ce%,. who was disposed to make any sacrifice f.r public c . venience. It economy was the object that had prom I . the abolition of this place of punishment, it w a , ~,.. surprising that it had not been thought of brtute much money had been expended in thelrepeirs, a, before a sum exceeding, he believed, 50 ow Laid out in building and altering the other 11 , itis eq Condition belonging to the county. Anothe r V worthy of mature attention was, that it was the or, prison in Surrey where the system of voluntary 'A na ' . had been introduced, and all who had at all terche4 its influence in improving the condition of the inm ate of a gaol, would acknowledge the great beadt, r,,,,, had resulted from this species of labour pac t that .1 compulsory employment. Under these circumstari;r:, he had not the slightest he,itation in givin 4 lii oi l ,. currence to the suggestion the Committee had no‘,. in their Report, of continui , ig in the this old etaliii,:;,i place of punishment. Mr. Cliats FAiD said, tbe idea of removing the r. sorters from this town arose horn the circumstance, £2OO being w anted for repairs. The questi n raised whe.her the prisoners usually sent to this PL could not be provided for in the other Houses of C. rection in the t.ounty ? The subject was referred to Committee, for them to inquire Into ; but as he cr ceived the matter had not yet h ea fully look. d into, would move, as an amendment, that it be again retell.. to a Committee, for further investigation. Mr. BRISCOE supported the It 'poi t, principally on t! ground that the Kingston Gaol was the only psis n the country where the system of voloniary labou r ter pursued, and by which a man, though n e t commas., to hard labour, might, if he chose, employ himself, an: at the expiration of his punishment receive ( : the products of his labour. He thought it wa s due t the dignity of the County Magistrates that tbey slnt!! not forsake this place, after they had at different but, voted large sums of money for its repairs. Mr. HoLME SUMNER said, the object in discontinuitn•. the use of the prison was to s.,ve about 3101. a year the county for its standing expemes, a•td also at. anntui increasing ex.:cid:tore for repairs. The average nuns her of prisoners confined in this jail did not ezcee seventeen, and he could see no objection to the removal of the prisoners on the supposition that they could nix he classified with so much propriel ehewhele as is this place. This had been started as a great difficulty, but he could readily imagine that an attatiKeenew, could be made in any other House r Correct uI HI keeping those prisoners who were not committed t. bard labour distilict from others who were sentenreht compulsory employment. lie saw no reason why the Kingston House of Correction was to remain a bu:cei to the county. Mr. DENISON voted in favour of the Report. If the pr.ior,'• said, was to be rebuilt, he would vote against doing so; betas was not the case, and it WAS considered as a convenience to then . rounding country, he hoped to see the Report confirmed. Mr. KENRICK supported the amendment, conceiving that furtier inquiry was necessary before any decision on a question of si much importance was determined on. After some further couversatioo, the sense of the Court W. 4 takesi, when it appeared that there were seventt•en : 1 / 4 1.igistre., favour of continuing the prison, and tea for the amentimar.

Charleston Papers to the '2oth ult. have arrived, but they contain no intelligence of any intere s t.

THE MURDER NEAR RUBY.—ANOTHER MAN All'ltE• HENDED.—On Sunday evening, Ralph Weston, a cones Ispinner at the factory of Messrs. K NIGH T and Company, near Keighley, was apprehended and conveyeno Bury. It is said that he does not deny his in!imacy with Dige, and adnfts that he was with him for several dayslbe• fore, and until three o'clock of tie day on which the 'horrid murder was committed, but says that he did not see him afterwards. As yet he has not undergone as examination. The only evidence against him is the declaration of Diggle. The Surrey Magistrates have expressed their deter• mination to proceed with the utmost rigour against persons who offend the law and violate decency, by exhibiting those infamous placards in the public streets, which are disgraceful to the metr3polis.
