The prejudices, which have hitherto darkened the mental vision of the popular and periodtcal writers upou this subject, will, I know, he speedily dissipated. It has been somewhat amusing, since esperienc Iles put ute in possession of the real facts. to remark the ran dom guitilies of vnrious learned writers, $l:4 Or the effects which the propolied system world produce on childrin, adults. and lleelety-at large. They have naturally appeared to me like men bons abed attempting to describe colours. Theii conjectures bate generally exhibited the greatest possible remoteness from the wain' of reality.

And it isnot a solitary community that can satisfy the wants or the Wishes of society.--ticientific inventions and disco veries have been accumulating ditring the last bait century, sod' afford us the means of producing wealth to a redundant eel undrulted extent ;—and the arrangements necessary to in form the human character, *poet scientific principles, to what it ought to he, are known.

But a spirit is abroad which will not rest satisfied with such state of things. It it no longer a question whether new principles and prac tices can or will he adopted. This is now inevitable. But it Is a Idtsieet of interest to the public to ascertain when, how and by whom the change shall be effected. This subject I sha°' cotteluticin my neat letter. . ROBERT OWEN, • New Lanark, Nommber 1, 1823. PARIS • .PAPERS. • —eognwo— The Paris 'journals of Tuesday are almost entirely . 6114i1 With the proceedings in the case of ( ostaing, the emit of. which will be found below. The Joirnal des Debuts contains the following Asir. vationi in 'allusion to the discussion to which SAVARY'S pamphlet has given birth : " IVe are assured that Prince Talleyeand, justly rant at the odious recrimination on which M. de 'Rovigo has endeaf;ured to establish his Innocence, wrote to the King. sopplicating his Nlajesl , to order ao inquiry by the Chamber of Peers; it is added that his M.jesry replied, that the proposed inquiry never should be suthoriziel by him. The reasons which the King deigned to give for his refnail have even been mentioned. An inquiry ap peared to the King to be contrary to the salutary principle of oblivion, by which his Nlajesty wished, as cep din she charter, that all acts anterior to the restoration should be covered. " What confirms the reality of these reports, and even gives th'em a character of authenticity; is the following fact, Thiel) cannot he questioned, since it was public, and occoired in the presence of the Court. Oh Snnday Prince Talleyriod camas usual, to pay his respects to the King along with all the great Officers of the Kingd , on an d Crown. His Majesty took that opportunity of addressing to Prince Talleyrand these gracious words Prince Talleyrand, yon and your friends may come here without tio: fear of unpleasant meetings.' We are persuadsd that th..se Royal words will put an end to the scandalous in sisuations raised by the man whose punishment they an• flounce.

He has been found guilty on two counts ; the abstraction of the testament, and the poi soning of Auguste Ballet, and acquitted of the charge of basing poisoned II yppolite. Sentence of death has in conse quence been passed upon him, and he has hero condemned to make restitution to Madame Martignon of the 'MUM! fra.rcs, with interest, which he had received from Auguste. The favourable nature of the opinions expressed by the majority of the Phyalciaos, bad led to an opinion that a ditt•rent result seas possible; for as they denied the exivtence of poison end of poisonous appearances in the body after death, they had removed the only positive proof which could be given. and lett nothing to determine the decision of the Jury but presump tive eyideaCe. That evidence however has proved too over whelming for the accused. It is even clear that it had pro duced a deep impression on the minds of his own counsel ; for though they made some eloquent appeals to the feelings of the Jury, whenever they approached the particulars of the case, they ventured to do nothing more than to raise doubts of -welch they wished their client should have the benefit. They defended hiin in fact as men convinced of his guilt, and stray glii.g all the time against the horror with which it impressed them. It is also remarkable that as soon as they had finished an evidently odious task they retired from the audience. The Court expressed its surprise at this conduct, and ordered the Solicitor for the defence to take notes whilst theAttorneytiene -Ist should make his reply ; but Castaing solicited some delay Which was granted, and one of his Counsel, Mr. Roussel. returned ; but Mr. lierryer, jun. who had spoken last, remained absent under the plea of exhaustion. As Mr. Roussel, who had a right to answer the Attorney General, (the last speech is always for the defence in the French tribunals) contented himself with declaring that be bad nothing more to say, ho might as well have remained absent too. At nine o'clock at night the Jary retired into the Chamber of deliberations. and at half past eleven they returned and delivered the fatal ver dict. On hearing it Castaing was thrown into a state of dread ful agitation, as will appear by the following broken and rather incoherent .sentences which escaped from hire, accord ing to the report of the Journal des Debuts : " Yes, Mr. President, I shall know how to die, though I be very unhappy, and though surrounded with circumstances which plunge me into the tomb, I shall go and find my too unfortu nate friends. lam accused with having assassinated them in a cowardly manner...AM ! yes. there is a Providence!

STOCK EXCHANOI, 12 *Tweet.— Consols opened this morn ing at tin:, for next Accoant u. with scarcely any thing doing. We do not as yethear of any Express from Paris. The non• arrival Is probably owing to there being no difference in the piices of the French Funds since those last quoted, nor any particular news worth sending. The want of news in the city, causes on entire stoppage to all speculations. Fonetos FUNDS.—There is little or nothing doing in the above market.

Mr. Harvey and Chapman were yesterday brought up to recei►e the sentence of the Court, for the libel upon the sanity of his• Majesty ; and we are happy to say, that the Judges have surprised us, (seeing what we have seen) by attending further to the recommendation of the Jury to •mercy,• than we had dared to anticipate. Still, however, Harvey Las no reason to rejoice; and those of the Jory who deliberated so lung before they would agree to a verdict of guilty, will perhaps think a fine of 2001. andan itu prisormient of three months, even in the King's lleneb,is more than Mr Harvey deserves. If the expenses of the prose cution be added to the punishment, the fine will not be less than 5001:—and the auxiety which is consequent upon the hostility of the Attorney General, is another circumstance which ought to be taken into account. But when we remember that Joseph Swann is now • enduring an imprisonment of fou► years and a half. for merely vending a pamphlet, and attending a public meeting assembled in a legal manner for a legal purpose, we must allow that the sentences dassed open the present de fendants are more lenient than we expected. We are glad to see that Mr. Justice Best is ashamed of the absurd and despotic ideas, which the journals of the day attributed to him, on the motion for a new trial in this cwt.. Mr. Harvey was proceeding to chew, that it was impossible for any man to conduct a newspaper under such restrictions as the Learned Judge ha I been accused of laying down ; when Mr. Justice Best interrupted, him, and explained them away in so liberal a manner, as to allow that in case of any improper concealment of the state of the King's health by the ministry, it became the duly of a journalist to call public attention to that improper 'Mai. This is saying a great deal for Mr. Jus tice Berl . ; though we are aware there might be a great difference between his ideas of what would constitute an improper delay, and the ideas of a public journalist upon the subject. The address of Mr. lldaV Y will be read with much interest. The reply of the Attorney lieneral was, es usual,—a tissue of assertions destitute of any masoning in their support. The Nese Times daily repeats the falsehood of Ri ego's baying thot eight,if nut tourteen,moniedSpaniaris &Malaga , and to day it extracts from 60.A/untie: Chronielr,the para• graph in which the statement originally appeared. 'f Isis document is anonymous, and is dated Cadiz, August 2.g. It states, among other matters, that liege " levied im mense contributions on the Merchants of Malaga; and, on flews nt of some uturrouri ng,fourteenofthernoniedSpaniards were shot. This is Cie Ch rouble account; not made upon any authority, not even signed by the writer • n ► names, no dote of the transaction gives ; and, after a lapse of nearly three months, no further details have been furnished from Malaga, which is now in the hand. of his tuanierera, who would not be likely to conceal any of his offences which might palliate their own. Tire execution of fourteen monied men would have made more noise. The New Tithes attempted at the time, in the most clumsy manner, to bolster up this account, with a pretended letter fromilibraltar,dated Sept. 7, which totally changed the scene of the shooting from Malaga, to Velez ; for after giving an account of the severe manner in,which tbeEnglisli were treated, by Meg'', to obtain contributions from them , the writer says :—" The French divison of Count Loverdo " made its appearance, and Itiego scampered off, (from " Malaga) with all his troops towards Velez; having previously levied and robbed upwards of one hundred and " fifty thousand dollars, in money, and about another such " sum in Church, and (it is said) other plate—he shot eight "men THERE without trial." By any fair construction of language, this there refers to Velez, and not to Malaga ; and yet bow could the writer tell what hap. paid at a place. where he does not know . that Riego bad arrived ; for he only says that he was scampering towards Velez! That the last least was a form'. is past all doubt. The istelligeacts from Malaga has been uninterreptedyforimany weeks.,There are many English merchants there. wise are continually writing to their friends here; yet no farther par ticulars transpire. There are also in London several persons who were at Malaga, at that periptl, and shortly after; and yet we hear no account of the transaction. How base, then, to repeat as authentic a charge so revolting, with such a total absence of proof. After all this slander and abase of Kiego, the wretched hypocrisy of the New Times is the, more disgusting, when it affects to commiserate the " sufferings of bis young, " and sick, and exiled widow, and respectable brother." — T abusive untruths of the New Times towards the gallant victims has barbed their sufferings ten-fold. The base attacks upon the repotrAon of Kiev must afflict them still more than a death, which was only disgraceful to his murderers. Meg° is proclaimed by a world, wondering at his moderation, to have committed ou crime in the depoSi lion of King sFeedinind. It was necessary that such a King should be deposed; and it is only to bre regretted that the clemency of Ribgo towards that heartless man led to his own destruction, . A French paper declares that England was never more closely united with thataitinental Powers ip,,a, common design, than at preheat; and that there will balm differeass aliout the means to be adopted In furtherance of their common objects. If this be the case, our Ministers will be in an awkward predicament, when the declaration against the recognition of South American States shall appear; having induced the arca:dile Interest of England to believe that they would recognise them, in effect, if not by a formal act,on the part of our thweinment. The Morning Paper to which We replied on the subject of the right of Judges to prohibit the publication of pro ceedings in an open Court, lad to remove spectators from the Court at their pleasure, contents itself by saying—" we " proved the right as much as any common law right can be proved." This is not quite correct. Common law right depends upon invariable custom, before the authority of the written law commences, In certain cares, the Judges have chimed and exercised this power, when the parties to whom they are opposed havebeeo weak enough to submit to it. But these are rare exceptions to a custom now become general. The common law of the case is identified with the custom of publication, and not the right of prohibition ; which has no other basis than the discretion of the Judge, or the caprice of a Ma gistrate. The writer is angry that we should have no greater reverence for the kkocb, than to say that there have been " arrogant" men seated upon it. We might have said that there have been much more than "arrogant" men clothed with the judicial robes. There have been ignorant, conceited, vain, impertinent, and wicked Judges ; as well as of other cl.ases; ind when it is recollected that mut of our greatest u law authorities" was a hanger of witches, we think the wisdom of relyingupon them may be occasionally questioned. Judges have generally enough of legal knowledge; but when they get out of their books, they are sometimes sadly at a loss, in very common matters ; and we are not inclined to pay any deference to their opinion% in favour of their own authority. We thank this writer for his kind permission to osperiNlandges but we shall not avail ourselves of it ; for wo .con differ from the whole Bench, without feeling that either its oc cupants ought to be aspersed, or ourselves punished for the difference. We are happy to hear that a Meeting will be called to appes publicly to the benevolence of England, in behalf of the unfor tunate refugees from Spain, Italy, &c. now in this country. A Committee has been formed ; and there can be doubt of the success of such an endeavour to assist these victims of political considerations. Yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, Downing Street, which was attended by the Earl of Liverpool, Earl Bathurst, Mr. Secretary Canning, Lord Bexley, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and•several others. The Cabinet sat in deli beration till about five o'clock. The Committee of the Foreign Stock Exchange have come to the resolution, not Wallow any quotation to be made of tiuehliard's loan, in the . list published under their authority. All future contracts for loans, of whatever nature, are to be submitted. to their approbation before the price is permitted to be marked.

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Bermuda ' dated Oct. 6:— t` After an Intermission of five years. we experienced. on the fib ult.. a severe gale or wind, which it is to be appre hended has occasioned sows dot*Ser to vessels at sea, although. Ism olopittion it did not equal in violence, nd certainly not Ivi'doration, the hurriesnei usual in these lafftiafiA l carteio seasons of the year.--The gale commenced here fro;u g. E., and subsequently changed to shout the opposite Point. His [Majesty's ship Athol, which arrived from Halifax the 30th ult., encountered the storm al noon of the 28th, in lat. 38. wind about North, it having previously blown heavy from ti. E., by which means a great cross sea was produced.--She lost two boats, maintop sail, hammock and head rails, dc. but none of her spars.--But few vessels were in port, and only one, I believe, has received damage, the Cleopatra, of Nova &olio." Extract of a letter froutlise.Agentato 'Lloyd's at Genoa, dated the 9th t s. • " With reference to our letter of the 25th ult., we have now to acquaint you that the platform, a hulk, which war sank at the distance of 300 Preach feet from the extremity of the Old Mole, or Eastern Vier, upon which men were working day and night in order to till it op with bricks and , stones, cemented by Poarilana , • strong gale from the' South came on, with a rough sea on the 31st ult. which destroyed all the hull; which was not filled up, so that there remains at present but ten feet water on the meat 'shoal) , part of the platform. Wolk counot be recommenced till next Spring: in the meanwhile, Government has [ ordered a pontoon to be got ready, which is to be moored with chains close to the spot where the platform in sunk, and to have a light hoisted as a warning to navigators. We are apprehensive that in very rough weather the vessel will not be able to keep her stotioo, and we therefore advise Masters of vessels on entering this port to keep towards the middle, or left side of it, to avoid getting foul *f the hulk, which lies precisely in the direction as deo.ribed is oat loot, via. its head to the S.S.W., and stein to- N.N.E." THE KING. His Majesty arrived at Carlton Palace, in his travelling carriage, from Windsor, this day, at half past twelve o'clock. COURT OF KING'S BENCH.—(Tnis DAT.) CRIM CON. LAING r. =Awns. Mr. BROUGHAM, for the lielendani,ntOved to make a tale absolute, calling on the Plaintiff to chew cause why the writ of enquiry in this cause, should not be delayed, oa the ground that the defendant was out of the country and that his father, who bad general instructions to act for hint, had been unable to communicate with him on the subject of this action, which was brought against him on the Gth of November. Mr. SGARLETT chewed cause against the rule. The plaintiff is master and owner of a vessel trading to South America ; the defendant is an attorney of this Court. He should not object to the delay, if the defendant's father would give security for the costs; but he must also have judgment of the term. Although the father bad sworn that lie had received a letter front the son, subsequent to his leaving Paris, in which it is stated that be had been taken ill. and that he, the father, believes that to be the reason why his letters bad misted, him, nothing is said about where the lady was. It wea believed that the defendant intended to reside permanently iu France, and that he was making away with his property and getting it out et the reach of an execution of the court. Mr. Pottocw, on the santehide, said that although the action was not brought tillANotreinber, the defendant hut intimation as early as the beginning of September, that as action would be brought. Mr. BROUGHAM said that the defendant bad been inform. ed that an action mould be brought ; but threats were often made and afterwards abandoned. No notice of ileac)* was given. As to what had been said about his client's making away with his property, there was just as much evidence could be given that he was not making away with it. CUIRFJUSTIGE ABBOTT—WiII the father pay the costs of delay ? Will you live judgment of Me tertn, and ea. dertake that no writ oferror snail be brought ? Mr. BROUGHAM, after consultation with the attorney Hi , the cause, assente I. Mr. SCARLET said, that, on those term; be would gin ' six weeks, in lieu of a month's delay. Mr. Ham:Guam sail, it would be more convenient to , have within a week of Hilary Term, or , only 4 weeks. 114 he would take the 6 weeks. ' lade made absolute on these terms. MYSTERIOUS DEATH. (lEOII TDB DUBLIN Ova ratio Nast 01P TVESDAY.) A iiyr. of this City, well known in the Corinthise circles, had resided for the lest few weeks at Tieknock, in the Dublin mountains, having with hire a young lady, aged about IS years, possessing considerable beauty, and passing for his wife, but whom, it is now thought, was his alert antic, set supposed to have been seduced by him. A few days since Mr. W. changed his residence from (as it is said) coins feeling et jealousy, and pieced his fair unfortunate in the house of a per son, named Cardiff; in the suburbs, on the south side-of the city, and having occasion to come to town on Sunday evening, he left the young lady in the lodgings, who, 6 udiug herself lone• some, requested of Mrs. Cardiff to permit herdaughter, a young woman of about her own age, to sleep with her that night, Is which Mrs. Cardiff consented, and yesterday roomiest. not geeing her daughter come down for some time after her used hour of rising, Mrs. Cardiff knocked at the door, after some delay, and not receiving any answer, the door was forced oyes, when the wretched mother's eyes were struck with the appallieg sight of—her daughter and the young lady lying lifelu! !! A bottle was found in the room, containing a liquid, which hes been ascertained to be poison. An inquest was to be held this morning. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. [llOll TIE DUBLIN WANING POSY or WEDNESDAY.] A young lady named Margaret Thompson. possessing aces siderable share of beauty, and scarrely eighteen years orate, has been residing for some time at Ticknock, a little beyond Bellinteer,•Dandrues, at the foot of the Dublin Mountains, under the protection of a gentleman of this City. On solidly evening, this young lady, Dein alone, requested of Mrs. Car diff, in whose house she lodged, to allow her daughter, a young woman abeut her own age, to sleep with her, and Mrs. Cara having consented, the two young ladies retired for the night.— On Monday morning, some time having elapsed beyond the usual hour of Miss Cardiff's rising, without her having made her appearance, Mrs. Cardiff proceeded to the chamber where they had slept, and knocked at the door repeatedly without re• ceising any answer. The door was then burst open, and the agonised mother beheld her dinette* and the other young lady lying lifeless. The reports through town yesterday respecting this melancholy occurrence, , Were very erroneous; moo; othors, it wes said, that they Were poisoned. There was ae foundation whatever for thiestatement ; their death is supposed to have occurred is consequence,of a charcoal fire being kept in the room where they,slept, i which wavill ventilated, and the chimney defective. This dangerous kind :n/ (eel, it Is believed thus caused them to he suffatita.--Burgrola Nl• t Niansara has examined the contents of the stom a c hs of taith the deceased: we understand they exhibit no symptoms orippearance of poison. A Coroner's Jury sat on the bodies yesterday. The Jail adjourned without returning a ver.ict until this they. • A Resolution, of much importance to the interests of fre• land, has, at the suggestion of the Countess df been unanimously adopted by the Linen Board. It deter mines that Returns of the Prices of Flax and Yarn, in the different markets all over the kingdom, shall be regularly made, and the same published in the newspapers weekly. CANAL CELEBRATION AT ALBANY. —Agreeably to pee vious arrangements, the celebration of the passage of t h e first Boat front the Grand Canal into the Hudson, was mla brated at Albany on Wednesday last, in great style.
