PARIS, APRIL 17.—When England, some eighteen months since, effaced herself from the political scene of Europe, the cause of this change was sought by every one, and it was explained by every one to be " Ireland and the - National Debt." Before she borrowed money to make war against the Powers of Europe, it was necessary to be certain there was no occasion for money to make war against the Catholic Association. Before we expose our selves to the chances of a foreign war, it is well not to risk those of a civil one. This was repeated everywhere three months ago without the thought that we were se near the moment, when the causes ascribed to the inaction of England would vanish before the firm and immoveable determination of a man who was equal to the task he undertook. To give complete satisfaction to Ireland without compromising the success of the cause in England : to extend to all the benefits of freedom without doubling the ranks of its adver saries, such is the great problem resolved by the Duke of Wellington. A half concession, the effects of which would have been futile, would have been leaving things almost in the same state as when lie attained power, except an increase of irritation in the oppressore, and sonic more demands on the part of the oppressed. The English Ministry has telt it, and that is what ren ders it worthy of the high mission it has just fulfilled. It has gained its enemies by the greatness of the work which it performed ; and there is no doubt that the people of England have not yet recovered front the stupor into which they have been thrown by the completion of an enterprise which would not have been conceived possible two years ago. The conquerors and the conquered look at each other, astonished at finding the old Constitution, which protects them all to-day as well as yesterday, still standing.

" This is the noblest answer which could be given Ge neral Bolivar's calumniators, and which will be duly ap preciated by every reasonable man in Europe. Attend also to all the decrees which you will see in the papers herewith sent,—decrees no longer fallacious, but executed to the letter,—and therein you will find sufficient proof of the paternal care, liberality, wisdom, and diligence of the Liberator. Colombia, I repeat, is saved, and her pros perity will redeem the new world from the perils which the crimes 4n4 madness of faction were preparing for the overthrow of its liberties. Santander, the accessory be fore the fact in the attempted murder of General Bolivar, is now gravely implicated by the late insurrection of Colonel Obando, and the intercepted communications of General Lamar, whn, it appears, had been engaged to support, anal bad promised support to the rebels. He is, however, to be sent to Venezuela, his present place of con finement being considered fatal, and the Liberator being too generous to destroy insiduously him whom he has pardoned even too indulgently. If, however, there Le legal proof of his having provoked the Peruvian invasion, the tiherator must resign him to the laws." KING'S COtitT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY. The following letter, addressed to Sir Charles Chambers and Mr. Justiee Grant, from the Governor and Members of the Bombay Council, was publicly read in court, on the 6th of October : " To the Hon. Sir C. H. Chambers, Knight, Act log Chief Justice, and the Hon. Sir J. P. Grant, Knight, puisne Justice of the Hon. the Supreme Court of Judizattare. " Honourable Sirs—We are quite aware that we trans gress upon ordinary form in addressing this letter to you, but the circumstances under which we are placed will, we trust, justify this departure from usage, and our know ledge of your private and public character leads us to hope th it what we state will be received in that spirit in which it is written, and that, notwithstanding your strict obliga tions to fulfil every part of your high and sacred duty as British Judges, you will, on this extraordinary occasion, deem yourselves at liberty to consider as much the object as the rules of that court over which you preside; and, viewing the intention of the Legislature in its institution, as directed to the aid and support of the government en trusted with the administration of this Presidency, you will, for a short period, be induced, by our representa tions, to ..betain from any acts (however legal you may deem them) whieh, under the measures we have felt our selves compelled to take, And which we deem essential to the interests committed to our mharge, must have the ef fect of producing open collision brtwee n our authority and yours, wad, by doing so, not only diminish that respect in the native population of this country which it is so re sential to both to maintein, but seriously to weaken, by a supposed division in our internal rule, those impressions on the minds of our n4ive bubjects, the egietence of which is indispensable to the peace, prosperity, and perPnanence of the Indian empire. This conclusion refers to a variety of circumstaiaces which we are equally forbid from explain ing as you are final . attending to such explanation ; but we deem it necessary to atate our c.mviction of the truth of what we have asserted, except that it may have some cre.i.i. , ht with you, as connected with the preservation of that atrek-gth in the Government which in all on;' territo. ries, but pea ti4agsrly those we have so recently scquiced, is the chief, if not t only, power we possess for main taining that general peace, pp the continuance of which the means of good rule, and a .administering law under any form, must always depend. - 2. " In consequence of recent proceedings ',he Su preme Court, in the cases of Moro Ragonath and Bappao Gunneas, we have felt compelled, for reasons which we have fully stated to our superiors, to .direet that no fur ther legal proceedings be admitted in the casenfAloro Ra gonath, and that no returns be made to any wAita pf hateas corpus of a similar nature to those recently issued, and directed to any officers of the provincial courts, or to any of our native eubjeete not residing on the island of Bombay. 3. " We are quite sensible of the iteep responsibility we i nc z by these measures, but must look tor ,our j,utitifica tion ib they necessity of our situation. The grounds upon which we act kive exclusive reference to considerations of civil government axel of state policy ; but as our resolution cannot be altered 41;1W we ,receive the commands of those high authorities to whicit Re are*Lb;:ect, we inform you of them, and we do neost anxiously 441 the consi derations we have before stated may lead you to limit you!.- selves to those protests and appeals against our conegict ttt the cases specified that you may deem it your duty to make, as any other conduct must, for reasons already stated, prove deeply injnrious to the public interests, and can, un der the resolution taken and avowed by government, produce no result favourable either to the imfuediai:e or future establishment of the extended jurisdiction you have claimed. 4. " A very short period will elapse before an answer is received to the full and urgent reference we have made upon this subject; and we must again express our hope that even the obl'gations under which we ere sensible you act are not so imperative as to impel you to proceedings After the foregoing letter had been read by the Clerk of the Crown, Sir C. CHAMBERS addressed the Court at considerable length, remarking on the impropriety of the Government in thus attempting to interfere with its jurisdiction ; and was immediately followed by Sir J. P. GRANT, who took the same view of the case as his colleague. As Mr. Justice Grant's remarks embody nearly the opi nions of both Judges, we give his entire. Sir J. P. GRANT said —" I have heard this letter read with equal attention, surprise, and regret. I would wil lingly abstain from making any remarks on it; and I will abstain from making many which forcibly suggest them selves. Considering, however, who the persons are who write it, who we are that are addressed, and what the matter is which it concerns, I am not sure that I perform my public duty by the abstinence I shall observe, and I sin quite sure that I should not perform it if I were to per mit that letter to pass without comment. " It is a document of a singular nature. It is a missive letter, signed by the Governer and the Gentlemen who are members of the Council. How we can receive a letter missive I know not. But no communication made to us relative to the discharge of our judicial duty can be consi dered by us as any other than a public communication.— The gentlemen who sign that letter seem not to have a very clear conception of the nature of the judicial office, but it must be presumed that at least they know this. " The style of:the letter is not very clear, and the meaning is attempted, not very skilfully, to be wrapped up—l suppose fur the purpose of softening it—in many words. But, stripped of such of these as are immaterial, the proposal made to us, the King's Judges in the first part of the letter, is this, that, notwithstanding our strict obligations to fulfil every part of our high and sacred duty as British Judges, we will, on this extraordinary accasiou, deem ourselves at liberty to abstain from any acts, how ever legal we may deem them, which, under the measures the gentlemen who sign the letter have felt themselves com pelled to take, must have the effect of producing open col lision between their authority and ours—that is, that, not withstanding the obligation of our oaths, we will consent. to refuse to administer justice according to what we deem to be raw, under the threat that if we do not so consent we must encounter a collision with their authority. " What feelings of painful indignation the approaching him with such a proposal must excite in the mind of every honourable man I abstain from stating: But this it is necessary that I should state, in order to preserve the confidence in the King's Judges of those who have 'occa sion to resort to their tribunal, that the gentlemen who sign this letter labour under a great mistake if they be lieve that there exists, with the exception of a very short, calamitous, and disgraceful period of our history, that there ever did exist a British Judge to whom such a pro posal would be addressed with the least chance of success. " In another paragraph of the letter they even venture to mention by name two cases, one still depending before us, instituted on the part of individuals who thought themselves aggrieved, for the purpose of obtaining a resti tution of their private rights—those rights being no other than their personal liberty, of which it was stated they were unlawfully deprived, and in one of which cases it ap peared to us, for any thing which was alleged by the de fendant who confined him, though ample time was given him, by a large exercise of our discretion to correct what seemed an ignorant return, that the person was unlawfully confined, and he was accordingly set at liberty. And in the other of which cases we have decided that no justifica tion of the confinement has been shown, though from the course we have adopted an opportunity still exists of show hig it, if it can be done. " In this last-mentioned case the writers of the letter say that they have directed that no further legal proceed ings be admitted, though how they are to prevent private persons from taking such legal proceedings as they may be advised, or what power exists in any part of the King's dominions to stop any legal proceedings which any of his Majesty's subjects may choose to institute in any Court of competent jurisdiction, or in any Court not of competent jurisdiction, except by means of other legal pro ceedings in a Court which has jurisdiction to controul such incompetent Court, they have not said nor do they seem very well to have informed themselves. " They say that they have also directed that no returns be made to any writs of Habeas Corpus of a similar nature ' to those recently issued and directed to any Officers of the provincial Courts, or to any of their native subjects 'not residing on the island of Bombay. " Now, they do not seem to know that a writ of Habeas Corpus ad subjiciendum, that is, a writ contain ing the command of the King, in a matter containing his prerogative royal for bringing a person said to be unlaw fully confined before the King's Judges, that they may ascertain whether he be lawfully confined, and deal with him accordingly, is not a matter of discretion in the King's Judges to grant or refuse, but is a writ of right, due to such as demand it, ex debito justitice, on sufficient cause shown, and which the King's Judges are bound by their allegiance and their oaths to issue without delay, and to deliver to the applicant. " Neither is the process that may follow on such writ, in order to enforce obedience to it, a matter of discretion in the Court to direct or refuse the issuing of it, if the subject to obtain the issuing of such process, and to re fuse it is to refuse to administer justice, and is denegatio justitia% " And by what means they propose to prevent persons, whom I take to be King's subjects, and not theirs, from the returning writs of habeas corpus, if any shall be directed to them, or to indemnify them if they do not, they have likewise omitted to declare. Meanwhile it is the duty of this Court to declare, that lawful power of this sort they possess none. " They talk in one part of their letter of protest and appeals. Protests we have no means of making, nor any reason to make them, nor any person to whom to make them, but the Almighty Fountain of all Justice ; and fur appeals, these are the rights of those suitors who think themselves aggrieved by our decision. " They say that they are sensible of the responsibility they incur. This is for them to judge of, and not me. But I may say, that I doubt exceedingly whether they are sensible of the entire responsibility they may incur. And this, at least, it is right for me to say, that, whatever re sponsibility they may choose to incur in their own persons, they canrmnt shelter others whom they may employ or cou troul from the responsibility such persons shall incur if they are concerned in any offer of resistance to the King's writs issued by the orders of this Court—s-a responsibility criminal as well as civil, and which, in case of any loss of life occasioned by such resistance, will infer the guilt of murder in all those who shall have been aiding and assist ing in it, or who shall have directed, counselled, or advised The Clerk of the Cicwp tyas ordered by the Court to write to the Chief Secretary of the Government, informing h:rn that the letter had been received, and that the Judges could take no notice thereof.

The Madrid Gazettes to the 7th inst., received this morning, contain nothing of importance, except the Decree of his MAJESTY to his Excellency the Secretary of State for the Grace and Home De partment ; according to this the Earthquake has made the most extensive and devastating havoc : MADRID, APRIL 6. His Majesty has been pleased to address to his Excellency the Secretary of State for the Department of Grace and Justice the following decree:— " The dreadful earthquake which, on the night of 21st March, was felt in various parts of the district of Orihnela, and others in the kingdom of Murcia, has converted into a desert those fertile plains, which just before tvere covered with above 4,000 houses, 20 churches, and various manu factories, which made that district rich and prosperous, burying under the ruins a considerable part of the in habitants, with their harvests, their flocks, and their fortunes. The afflicting picture which is presented by this calamity, which is unparalleled among us, and the situation of so many useful labourers, arti sans, widows, and orphans, has filled my heart with grief, and felt more on this occasion the loss of onr former opulence, which does not allow me to alle viate the calamity in a manner conformable to my paternal wishes. Persuaded, however, that all my beloved sub jects will see in the catastrophe which affects their brethren, while they venerate the inscrutable designs of Divine Pro vidence, a new and powerful motive for the exercise of the most eminent of all virtues, I have ordered the sum of 1,500 milrees to be immediately taken from my private purse, and that of the Queen my consort, for the relief of the necessitous, and desire that the public bodies of the State, the Nobility, Prelates, all rich princes, and in general all the inhabitants of my dominions, be invited in my royal name to subscribe ac cording to their ability to this charitable walk. I have also ordered 20,000 fanegas of wheat belonging to the crown to be applied to the same purpose.—April 5, 1829." The decree states other measures taken or recommended, and orders a Junta, of which the Archbishop of Toledo is president, to be formed, for the purpose of investigating the cases of distress, and taking such tneasuies as they may judge the most effectual.

TRIESTE, APRIL 3.—According to letters from Corfu, of the 29th of IV:arch, the town of Prevesa, and the whole coast opposite Corfu, had for some days past been blockad ed by the Greeks, so :bat no barks could approach, and the lonian Government, besides, did not allow them to violate the blockade. The number of the French troops that remain in the Mores, has been estimated at 6,000. A commercial let ter received here from Constantinople, and dated 10th March, says, " A few days ago, a Turkish frigate, sloop, and a corvette, were going to enter the Bospluarus by night, but were mistaken by the garrisons of the Castles at the entrance, for Russian, and so severely injured by a v'olent cannonade, that it was necessary to fend the steam boat along the coast of Candia to Alexandria, in order to prevent the landing of troops and provisions as well to Candia as the Dardanelles, especially as it is affirmed that the Egyptian fleet is to go to Constantinople, in order to act during the summer in the Black Sea in conjunction with the five ships of the line, two frigates, four cor• vettes, and twelve brigs, now in the harbour of Con stantinople."
