It is deplorable to see a Journal which calls itself the exclusive defender of the Throne and of Religion, declare even to-day in favour of a cause which cannot triumph, except by the turbulent expressions of the sovereignty of the people, and by the violation of oaths taken en the Gospel. The Iterivesentativei of the Courts of Europe have better defended the sanctity of religion, and the august character of Royalty ; they have telt that all the rela tions of regular diplomacy must cease in the practice of such illegal acts. MADRID. May We learn by the letters brought by the packet from the Havanuah that the expedition of Admiral Laborde to the coast of Cumana, tar from having been favour able to the cause of Spain, has only served to expose the Spaniards who inhabit that country to vexation, .which, on the appearance of the Admiral's squadron, !even degenerated into acts of cruelty, many of those unfortunate persons having been massacred. On the authority of very recent letters from Portugal, it is reported, that in consequence of the convocation of the Coral of Lamego, which Don Miguel has ordered, the representatives of the Sovereigns, atter having pro tested against the measure, have caused the arms which were placed over the doors of their hotel to be taken down. The letters also say, that it would not be asto nishing if the Portuguese Government was to deliver up to ours the Spanish refugees who have been lately ar rested; several of these unfortunate individuals have been condemned in Spain to capital punishment, and delivering them up would be no better than sending them to certain death. It is to be hoped that the Pot- Auguese Government will not violate in so odious a manner the sacred laws of hospitality. Official new has been received here that the Infant Don Miguel has been proclaimed absolute King in die whole pi nvi ce of Algar ve. It is affirmed that the Minister of Finance has sent positive orders to the Intendants of the Provinces, to collect their contingent every month. The whole would produce an amount of 36 or 37 millions of teals per islands, which is about the twelfth part of the budget of the Ministers.

Ihe Cativolic persecution, with respect to persons, bad ceased, but was still in orce with regard to property. We still think that Me Sultan will not hazard his crown and kingdom to the chances of a star which cannot but be touch against him, should he attempt to oppose the Russians by force of arms; however, we are of opinion that we shall not be obliged to leave Smyrna. Should war take place, we think that all commercial establish ments now at Constantinople will come here; many of them are opulent, and as trade ever follows capital, we look forward to an extensive and regularly conducted business in this part of Turkey before long.

IRISH EDUCATION REPORTS. REPORT OF THR SILRCT COMMITTEE, ORDERED BT THE HOUSE OF COMMODS TORN PRINTED, MAT 19, 1828. During several centuries the Legislature has recog nised the necessity and expediency of providing means for the education of the Irish people. So far back as in the 28th Hen. VIII. an Acc was passed for the general establishment of parochial schools. By the 12th Elie. the diocesan . schoola were founded, affording to the higher classes facilities for education, analogous to those provided for the poorer orders under ti.e statute Ai l Henry VIII. It is worthy Of iitstereation, that even at this wkly period the progress of crime is traced by the Lagislature to the ignorance of the people, and educa tion is relied upon as producing moral improvement, and of supporting the institutions of civil policy. Va- ' rious statutes have been passed on this important sub ' ject, in the reigns of Charles H. William 111. Geo. 1. Geo. IL and Geo. 111. and charters have been granted, and endowments made, with the same intent. These laws and institutions have varied extremely in their spirit and character, according to the temper of the times and the disposition of the Government and of the Legislature; the latest its their foundation being gene rally the Moat comprehensive in their principles. Inquiries, have at different periods been instituted both by Committees of Parliament and by Parliamentary COMlllitiiollos, appointed for the purpose of considering the state Of edttcatlon irx Ireland: 01 these the mast Nor has•the interference of the State been solely con. fiord to regulation anal to inquiry —Parliamentary. grants have been at various times must liberally made fOf the purposes of education. The amount of the ex- •. penditure will appear from the following account: Charter Schools Foundling Hospital . . 820,005 3 4 Association for divan's:tenanting Vice 101,991 II 6 kildaro-place Society . . 170,106 0 • Lord Lieutenant's Fund . • 40,996 0 0 Maynootb College . 271,869 12 6 Soma tenhotion . 4 .1.5 S 0 9 C•wk , fnetittrtion • . . 45,716 0 0 Hibernian School . . 240,326 2 6 Marino Society . 64,269 10 0 Female Orphan *boot - . 50,414 10 6 Hiving thus adverted :lardy to the legislative pro. ceedings and the Parliamentary grants for promoting education in Ireland, it is important so consider the existing state of the schools now in opeiation. The number or scholars receiving iustruction in 1826 was 560,549; leaving in all probability upwards of 150,006 without the means of education. Of the actual nista. ber of scholars returned, 394,732 are brought up sa the common pay schools; 46,119 in schools,sopported ezchnively by the Roman Catholic priesthood and laity; 84,295 under various establishments of private charity ; and 55,246 (or less than one tenth of the whole) are instructed in schools maintained in the whole or io part at the public expense. It is air, worthy of consideration, that whilst in the leastesclusiveol the latter establishments (the Association for discountenan cing Vice and the Kilda r e - pl ace S oc i ety) t h e num b er of Protestants as compared with Catholics is as 35,354 to 34,616 ; in the pay schools the proportion of scholars of the respective religious persuasions is as 87,338 to 307,405. It is, however, right to observe, that at the time these returns were made many of the children are stated to have been withdrawn from the schools • and consequently the numbers are prob a bly below th e ' real strength of scholars in permanent attendance at other times. In pursuing their inquiries, your Committee have avoided as much as possible the consideration of all questiows that would add to existing irritation and party violence. Their sole object has been to consider the principle upon which it is expedient hereafter to grant public money in aid 9f Irish education. With this view your Committee have preferred dealing with the pro. `position in the abstract; to entering upon any detailed !examination of the comparative merits of existing esta blishments. After the most anxious deliberation, your !Committee adopted the following Resolutions, founded upon a consideration of the documents referred tothem by the House. Resolved—Thar k appears to this Committee, that COSMO% I ssionets were appointed under legislative autho rity in the year 1806, for the purpose of inquiring iuto !the state and condition of schools in Irelana. ------- ' Resolved—That it appears to this Committee, that a 'Report was agreed to by these Commibsieners in the year 1812, communicating the result of their delibera. tions, on the subject of extending and improving the Education of the Poorer Chuset of his Majesty's Mtn subjects" Resolved—That it appears to this Committee, that such, genets' Report, signed by three Prelates, by the Provost of the University of Dublin, and by several other distinguished Ecclesiastical as well as Lay Mem bers of the Established Church, was presented ti Par. liament. Resolved—That it appears to this Committee, that in that Report the Commissioners felt it their duty to express their unanimous opinion, "That no plan of edu cation, however wisely and unexceptionably contrived in oche► respects, can be carried into effectual operetion . in Ireland, unless it be explicitly avowed, and clearly understood, as its leading principle, that no attempt shall be made to influence or distal) the peculiar reli gious tenets of any sect or denomination of Christians." Resolved—That it appears to this Committee, that second Commission issued in 1824, by command of his present Majesty, in consequence of. an Address from the House of Commons, for the purpose of inquiring into the state of education in Ireland. Resolved—That it appears to this Committee, that the first Report of the Commissitners so appointed, has been presented to Parliament by his Majesty's cumtnand. Resolved-That it appears to this Committee, that in such Report it is stated as the opinion of all the Com missioners, "That in a country where mutual divisions exist between different classes of the people, Schools should be established for the purpose of giving to children of all religions persuasions such useful instsuc• "lions as they may severally be capable and desirous of receiving, without having any ground to apprehend any interference s ith their respective religious prinei. isles rand the Commissione rs f ur th er ex p ress u t h e i r en . lire concurrence in the principles laid down is the 14th Report," already adverted to.
