i ~`~~ IA ? private debts and money erigngr mini's, for lime, of every varied deseriptiou, is incalculable? All which would not be affected in the least degree by a re duction of tate. ; the 'debtors would not obtain a shadow of justice or relief by it ; the °mucosity who yet are clinging to the last twig would equally become the victim of that iniquitous (nelson., and have their whole property liken possession of by 'their creditors. Farmers are espeCially in a sitnation to be thus cruelly sacrificed. There are a veil many of them who have two great creditors; their landlord must he looked open as one, a friend who teat them hilt their gooney io stock their farm, the other. Should the landlord be able sod willing to Wax his donated, nobody dreams of the friend Biting up any portion of hi., and the farmer's fate leCornes evident at once. 11 is not, however, farmers only. who borrow to `carry on their business; there is hardly a concern of trade or manufacture, even the lowest, in which ,productive industry hi not set to work ill part by borrowed capital. and the industrious man subject to ruin : andhere I request you to mark the differ. ence between lowering the 'value of money and raising it. This is a point which 1 endeavoured • articularly to 'press upon the attention of . the ;;louse, when I moved the inquiry into the effects .of Peel's lull—it merits the tullest consideration, and yet has hardly been attended to at all. The clearest way to exelitsdlly. is to state a case owlet each siinanou: Suppose a man with an income of tntii hundred per annum, arising from the efforts of irAltuitry in the production of any species of commo dities, and that a portion of his capital is borrowed. - 114 interest of which amounts to one bombed per annum—raise the vilise,of money one half, his com modities can only return half their money price, that is to say, one hundred pounds per annum, and skis industrious man is obviously left wholly desk tine : but this is not all—the creditor receiving . roily, it is true, the same nominal sum, unverthelees nbtains that which enables him to posseschnuself of twice the quantity of the industrious man% commo duties; in truth he seizes the whole property of his debtor : new letter the value of money, and 'let us see what folkws; the industrious man pays the debt with half the quantity of his commodities, their money .value being doubled, and his creditor re taining the same nominal sum, can only com mand lialf of them; this is horrid injustice: hut the man is not MI destitute; he retains half his income ; there is exactly the difference between the half and the whole.; lie is not sward out houseless and pennyless, in • condkion which rivals the cruelty of the moat unciviltzed coals tries, where security of property is wholly un known : such flagrant acts of plunder form a part of the evils attending that state of beggary, ruin, and ultimate convulsion, which Hume and Locke *scribe, as consequent upon raising the value of money : if I did not tremble from the effect of their prediction., as opposed to Hie authority of our modern philosophers, the grievous effects already experienced, would sulfice to convince me to whom I ought to pay the greatest deference. As to cal culating the effects of raising or lowering the value of money, without reference to debtors and credi jOrs, it would be absurd; because we know the vist extent of public and prieste debts, and be cause all our national establishments, civil and mi litary, are charges upon national industry, sod, es such, op as debts. The Monarch and the private soldier, the First Lord of the Treasury and the limed clerk in office, are alike in the predicament of creditors; they suffered by lowering the value pf money, but were not ruined; their suffering was acknowledged end alleviated, if not removed ; but thry are now, to clojurietion with public sad private creditors, absorbing tbe entire fruits . the industry of the country. Ministers boast the undiminished receipts of the Exchequer— Ohre receipts are extracted, chirfly, from the ca. pralof the country—the Exchequer alone is paid its demand.; the Exchequer is all powerful as re ; neither mercy or compassion, delay or cow ' prcifaise—it takes precedence of .11 claimants, and prhuises, ere long, to take the whole ; every other ,pecprietor finds a distressing deficit. The more I re 'fleet upon the state of this country, its immense public debt and taxes, its unrivalled complication elf . prieute debts and engagement., the more 1 am astonished.thot the ides' should ever have suggested I . teor to the mind of any Statesmen, to raise the value of the money in which they were crested ; the ineasure certainly owes its origin, in chief, to men who were gainer., or expectant gainers by it, namely, Ministers receiving salaries from the pub lic, others who wish to be Ministers, and some great monied proprietors were called in, who were supposed to be specially qualified to advise upon .such a subject. Difficult, however, as it is to ac count for such an extraordinary proceeding, I do .not entertain a enspicion of any selfish motives on the 'part of the Ministers or their rival.; and I try to Believe the same of the great monied men; but When I see public creditors and mortgagees swallow ing up the rents of the landowners. the profits of the tenant, and the general 'limits of industry, it re quires the fullest effort of charity to believe they did not intend it ; if we allow them to be holiest, they must all of them be content to be regarded by Ws sufferers, as extremely ignorant of the subject they not only pretended fully to understand, but exclusively to be the only competent dges of. They told its at first that Mr. Peel's Bill would only produce a difference of three or four per cent in the money price of commodities; they have now nearly admitted its operation to the extent of fifteen of twenty, which of itself mull be allowed to be proof sufficient of ignorance at all events : bat the actual amount of degradation is in fact much o fifty per cent: then twenty. We all know that the alleged reason for whichit was door, was to indem nify the fundholder and money proprietor prior to 1797 ; but, in order to do so, was it necessary to make the public pay sixty millions of amival taxes, in a currency of double value ? if it was, the leaser injustice should have remained unee dressed, rather than indict that of so much greater enormity ; but the proposed object is not even now accomplished, nor can it by each means at all events. We have only to reflect, that one half of those very perjured persons have r in all probability. long since purchased with their money, lands, turiars. and stock in trade, and become, of course, ke all other each proprietor., twined by the rely vensere. said to be for their illness, benefit; be spies which, to atone for the ilijuotice done to one set of persons under the .Act of 1797, by passing the Act of 11319 to ruin snoilier set of persona. is most moguls?. There is not a tnan of forty or Gee wnet.forty years of age, who by industry has acquit.- eif lands, houses, or tenements. .or stork in trade, who, as he must have gained them since 1797, is not thus robbed ht• Peel's Bill ; and if he ad •anced in wealth will, the iots , attee of borrowed capitol, is ruined. There is, in truth, another ge 'newton grown up of that ci..ot of men, who may justly be called the bees of the htve ; anti to treat them in this manner is little short of insanity, as 'well as cruelty unexampled. POKEIGN INTELLIGENCE. 'PARIS PAPERS. PARIS, NOVEMBER 11. 11M Mems from Verona is still very contradictory. However, as are are hound to give the truth above all thing., we meat not conceal that the reports of war acquire sore consistency every day. When the fall of the funds took piece, an endeavour was made to weaken these reports, bat the language was not the less hostile. By a strange contradiction T w a i n J.urnals have reproached the Constitution alists for announcing the war, while they have them selves maintained that it was indispensable. We have nothing 'manias as to what 'Minn to COMMOllleatt ; but as a multitude of interests and speculations cieiwnd on the grand question at pre sent agitated, we must still say. that though we de sire wirh all our hearts to see peace, war appears probable from the general opinion. The funds fell again this day 50 sole, which sup. parts our opinion that war is probable.

W are far from guaranteeing the truth of these chstiges; it even appears to us little probable that any change will take place in the Ministry be fore the result of the elections be known.—(( °airier Francais.) The following Stepp/rover to the Gazelle of Bar celona of Tuesday, October 29, contains the offici■l details of the decisive advantages obtained by Ge neral Mina over the Baton D'Etolles " Towards midnight, in the night of the 23d instant, 400 of the factious, that is to say, the greater part of the garrison of Castelfollit, taking advantage of a heavy &bower of rain and a very dark night, sallied out one by one in file by the heights, in the rear of the exterior tower, noting two of our sentinels, who were unable to distinguish them on account of the noire of the storm, and the profound darkness which prevailed, and retiring before the alarm given by the third sen tinel could lead to their being stopped, as our troops found themselves to the dangerous sitasuou of flnng upon each other. In the inevitable confusion which followed, it was found necessary to order a cessation of the Bring. in order that our brave troops should not perish by the hands of each other. " But as the breach was practicable, and the artillery of the insurgents dismounted, in the un certainty of their situation, orders were given to carry the place by &mauls, and the principal fortress and the other forts were taken without difficulty; but only sixty men, some women and children, were found. All these miserable wretches were subject ed to the rigorous laws of war, with the exception of the women and children. The fugitives arrived almost dead, seven hours afterwards, at Sanahya, where they joined the main body of the insurgents. " We obtained posseesion of a outsider:Ade quantity of prolusions and ammunition, with nine pieces of cannon of large and small calibre. All were made to direct themselves upon Calaf and Cersers. The main body of the insurgents; commanded by Erolles, Romani'los, Homagosa, and Minikes. united themselves on the 35th in the environs of Tors, with the design of attacking the small co lumn of Gunn, which occupied this point, and which protected CasteVoila. The project of the insurgents was to regain possession of Castelfollit, and to maintain themselves there, in order to give encouragement to their partisans ; or, if they failed in that, to reconquer, at least, their artillery and ammunition, of winch they were in gteat need. General Mina, foreseeing their inteation, moved from his head-quarters an the 26th, at five in the morning, with ■ force of 2,300 men, and took a po sition in the environs of Casselfollit. The battalion of Corunns sustained single-handed kr some time the whole shock of the rebels, whose number might amount to 5,000 men. Ou► General suede all the efforts that a most experienced soldier could make to engage the enemy in the position which he occupied; bat finding all those efforts un availing, he decided upon attacking them upon their own ground, notwithstanding it was very advan tageous, as they occupied a diagonal line, extend isig from Tore to Savorahuge. During two hours a brisk fire was kept up on bath sides. It was here, in fact, that the first pitched battle that was fought in Catalonia took place. A short time after noon the General prepared to attack them upon their right flank with the bayonet, and the battle became general and terr►ble. Some of their corps resisted bravely for some time, but our manoeuvres threw them at last into such frightful disorder, that they were obliged to betake themselves to u shame ful flight. " The cavalry of the column which attacked them in Hook and decided the action, by making the rebels believe that they were surrounded, made • horrible carnage, and broke the itiO cuirasssers, armed with the cuirasses and helmets, recently ex ported from France, and commended by Baron d'Erolles in person. The Insurgents lost in this battle many of their best soldiers, and what is still more important, they lost a great deal of their con fidence and moral force, since they knew that they have been beaten by a force one-third the number of their own. Even then our reserve division had to remain under arms simple spectators, and furious riot to have any occasion to attack the enemy. Our loss was very trifling, compared with that of the rebels. "General Mimi immediately gave* new direc tion to his columns. He is probably by this tiine in full march iwen Bahguer. The' velour of our officers nod 'lnherit was carriedlo s pitch‘ollaettiisils.

They confirm the accounts of the victories obtained by Generals MINA and ESPINOtA. The following are eztracts:— BAYONNE. NOVEMBER 5. As we have stated, General Quesuda arrived yes terday morning, •t ten o'clock, in this city, with two Aides-de-Camp and a Secretary. At noon he waited on General d'Autichsmp: it being observed that his two Aides-de-Camp were in their full uni form, sod wore their sabres, these defenders of the Faith were near being hissed by the crowd in the square where General d'Autichamp lodges. Their defeat has been complete. It was General Quesada who, on the lot November. attacked the Constitu tionalists between Estella and Salvatierrs, but he was beaten, and repulsed as far as to Los Arco., by the regiment Imperial Alexander, commanded by its Colonel, Alexander O'Donnell, in person. At Les Arcot they found fresh forces to engage, but after same resistance they were beaten and dis persed, leaving the field of battle strewed with arms. The disorder was an complete, that Qee sada, when he reached Loinhiere, could muster no more than 200 men; but it seems that the day before yesterday the partisans, Ladron and Guerguet, hid already rallied about 1,200 men. W e know nothing of the farther movements of Et pinoas, nor whether O'Donnell. who is at Bayonne, will go and take the command of the division of Navarre, which is in the greatest emission. There is nothing extraordinary in the three provinces except the vigorous measures of defence which are adopted at all points, especially at Bil boa, where they have erected in eight days a fort which has cost 500,000 reels, paid by the masse of the inhabitants, while the two moveable companies of volunteers, forming together 280 men, are ready to take the field. The incursions and operations of the royalists in this country are of uo advantage to the cause of the Faith, on account of the number. less excesses which they commit. The Madrid Journals mention the defeat of Me rino on the 24th, in the country of Burgos; but that of the 428th, which is mentioned in letters from that city, was much more complete. Four co lumns came up on that day, with the band of that partisan, consisting of 800 men, badly organised, near Araride; Go were killed and the rest dispersed, for, having retired towards Roe, the were attacked by another column from Valladolid. The officer who commanded in this expedition flutters himself in his report, that Merino will never recover this direst, but we already know the exploits, the courage, and the cunning of this priest, who possestws greet influence in the country where he acts. It is affirmed that he has hitherto been con cealed in a convent of nuns. A bulletin published at Saragossa on the 28th, relative to the taking of Camelfollit by General Mina, states that that place was occupied by 4,000 of the factious, and was taken by storm after 1,400 had been put to the sword and 1,500 take,. prisoners. The loss of the Constitutional troops was not so cousidenthle es might have been expected, because the attack was supported by the heavy artillery, which did greut execution. The trews of this victory has spread consterna tion among the rebels,• who will be dose pressed in their isobitious, and wholly unable to resist the courage of our troops:-8,000 men, with a good train of artillery, were immediately detached to wards Baltiquer, and we hope that thi. important point will be very soon in our power. Public rejoicings, and • splendid illumination, took place ou the same day at Saragossa. The Paris Papers up to Tuesday have arrived. The Five per Cents. opened on Monday at 83 f., and after great floctestion closed at 86 f. 90 c. The improvement is no more than the reaction of the first esittordina , y inapul.c, and does not war. "'"" - - .a '' rant a conclusion to the discredit of tli) 1 / 4 rumours which have recently depressed the funds. On th is subject we seek in vain for any light or explanation is the Paris Papers or private letters of !Woodsy ; but, to use a vulgar adage. 66 uo hews is good news ;" and from this stsdied silence it may be ia fund that the strong Inclination of the Allied Sovereigns at Verona to interfere by force in the internal state of Simi% sad the detertninatio u of the French Government to march an army into that country, are mere sisecehttions set afloat for sinister purposes. From the extraordinury success of these rumours, it would seem that they could not have been entirely without fouintotinii; but the history of the Stock Exchange alfarila many in stances of base practices, which have proved equally successful. If the plan prepared by cunning fraud and avarice can only take of rct upon • few, the panic soon becomes general, and each individual, without exercising his own judgment, takes courr..l from his Of inlibour's fears, and goes along with the crowd. Of any intention on the part of the Allied Sovereigns to dictate a Constitution to Spain at the point of the bayonet, there is Dot only nu positive lilt, Iligence, bet the supposition has not even probability is its favour. The present Constitution of Spain may not be es actly to the taste of the despotic Sovereigns of Russia, Prussia, and Austria, but it is not • citation of yesterday. 'I hey have seen its foundation laid, and the superstructure completed, without fear or apprehension ; and ohatever may be its defects, or to whatever objections it may be liable, it threatens to them no danger from its example. They sit upon their thrones in remote security, and having assumed the title of conservators of the peace of Europe at Verona, they will not forfeit it, sud be come the disturbers of that peace without an obvious necessity. No such necessity exists in the present state of the relations between them and Spain, at least none that would satisfy public opinion, and fortunately that is a tribunal to shicli they owe and must pay obedience. The immediate contiguity of France places her is a different situa tion from the other Continental Powers with respect to the Peninsula. In her ease it is Unit Ueolegow. A political fermentation in Spain must prove to France a source of great alarm. It was soon ap. parent that the cordon soxitaire, the original name of the army of observation, was intended to stem, not a physical, but a political epidemy. Still, however, it could only be considered a measure of precaution. The various trials for plots and conspiracies in France did not say much for the stability of her own Government, and surely that was not the moment for meditating the destruction of a neighbour. France could not at any time march an army into Spain without etictsugeritig her own internal security. But the present moment is the most unfavourable that could be chosen for the purpose since the com mencement of she civil war in that country. The constitutional cause is now triumphant in the north of Spain. A division of the army of the Faith, under D'Eeot.Les, was detested by MINA with considerable loss, on the 26th last, at Toro, near Castelfollit, after which MINA advanced in the di rection of Balaguer. The defeat of QUESADA by General ESPINOSA on the 27th, at Los Arcos, is also confirmed. That General has escaped with difficulty, attended by only a few follower., into France, and his tale can afford little encouragement for a French army to march into the Peninsula with out friends or supporters to join it at this ad• vaoced season of the year, • season fitter for can tonments than service in the field.
