THE LONDON JOURNALS. V.'XTRACTS FROM . VIE D ILY MORNING PAYERS, March M 2 18'21 [MORNING POST.] • Is it possible to believe that Ferdinand, in the hands of the French Ultras, would be more free than he is surrounded by the Cortes of his country, and seated on a Constitutional Throne ? But even if he were the captive which he has been represented, is it to restore liberty to such a man and Monarch as he has shown himself to be at the hour of unlimited power, that the rights of a - whole people are to be destroyed, the blood of nations shed, and the peace of the world en. dangered ? . Is there something so interesting in ideotic superstition; heartless ingratitude, and sanguinary despotism, as to enlist all the sym. pathies of the heart on the side of the tried op. pressor, merely because he is no longer permitted to oppress? With respect to the Constitution which is said to be imposed upon him, but to the free establishment of which in ISM he owes in fact his Crown, it may not be faultless, though it was sanctioned at its birth by the approbation of nil the Legitimate Sovereigns of Europe. We have never contended that it could not be irn. proved. Our own has only reached its present state of perfection by a series of improvements. Put, what we Jiave contended, and what we still contend for is, that those improvements are to be made by the Spaniards themselves, as the want of them is progressively discovered ; and that to receive them at the dictation of a foreign Power, or at the point of the sword, is what Spain can not do without losing all title to the respect and esteem of mankind.- [THE TIMES.] We really are at a loss to understand the con duct of Government, or at least to reconcile their assertions with what we see passing in Europe. ' An act more atrocious than' any that were ever perpetrated even by revolutionary France, is at the point of being attempted by the restored Bourbons; we, above all nations, except those of the Peninsula itself, must suffer in relative ' power, if the enterprize prove successful. Our remonstrances—for we suppose we have remon strated---against the wicked attempt, have totally failed. It is made in spite of us ; and yet it is said, we have come with honour out of the ne gociation. All these things, it is obvious, are inexplicable, or irreconcileable to common under standings. If the forthcoming Papers do explain and reconcile them, and so take the apparent tar nish from our character, they will effect more than ever was effected before by any diplomatic docu ments. In thinking over this matter, as English men anxious for the reputation and consequence of their country in the scale of national power ought .W think it ever, it has occurred to us,- that our disgrace would not be so flagrant on account of our acquiescence in the invasion of Spain, if we have held some such language, or insisted upon some such stipulations, as the following in otir'negotiations with France 'Welly if you tc must commit this act of invading a people most 44 friendly to us, and who. have done you no " wrong—if, as we find to our shame, we possess' " - net stiflicient consequence or consideration 44 with you to stay the enterprise altogether y at 44 least do not attempt its execution by sea ! " Do not violate that element, of which we are, or " ought to be masters ; thus, as it were, stabbing 44 Spain under our arm! Such an atrocity—such an " insult—such absolute contempt of our power— " such ungracious forgetfulness of what we once " were as a nation—such holding of us up to the derision of Europe, we cannot suffer. If your 44 ships put to sea, they must meet us there as 44 enemies." If even such language as this, we say, has been held, however different from that which a William or an Anne would have used to France and the Bourbons, we shall not be wholly dissatisfied. We must look a little at our pre sent situation ; and the reflection but too often occurs to us, that those under whose administration we have sunk into it, are still at the head of our affairs. That France also, or rather that the Bourbons, would have no right to complain of language such as the above, and a corresponding system of action, is obvious ; for they assert that all that they are now attempting is, 44 to set Spain free from a 44 domineering faction, and that as soon as the " French forces shall enter the Peninsula, the " fetters of the' King and of his people will be 44 broken ; myriads of loyal Spaniards will flock 44 to their standard, and the • invaders will be 46 hailed as deliverers." Be all this, then, as as serted : we will. not dispute your word : but then it follows, that you have only to pass the Pyrenees, and the► business is done—at least you have no occasion to join your friends by sea ;- the Uyerx•xexiaa, can only lead you farther from their embraces. [MORNING IL ERALD.] Extract of a Letter from Paris :—. 44 There is universal disconteet in France against the war, and if the Government do not come to an ac commodation through our moderation, it is im possible to say how it will terminate. The affair of Manuel has occasioned ,a serious uneasiness among the National Guards, and discussions and referenctts' to. their services in former times during the ,Revolution, and their principles of blind obetlienee, which may lead to very unpleasant and dangerous consequences. The manufacturers and , commercial men are violently against war,- and threaten to discharge ail their labourers the day on which war may be de clared. * * * and * * * * are in. Spain with 3,000 French deserters, and a° doubt many discontented half-pay officers wilt join them , to try the effect of their example and proclamations to , the French army whenever war is declared. Every one, excepting the most viol. lint of the fanatical party, wishes that there had not been any interference with Spain, and it is un. derstood that the King and Villele are earnest in h o ping that our mediation will give them an op. portunity of backing out of it, without any change in the Spanish Constitution. It is supposed that if the present Ministers were dismissed, and any others appointed at Madrid, the French Govern. meat would consider that sufficient to renew their negociations,and although popular oratory obliged, or rather Induced the King to restore them lately, after this plan was in train, it is thought the same measure will take place very soon through Sir Wm. A'Court's influence. [ -NEW TIMES.] We cannot conceive any thing more uncandid than the attempt to entrap the Gentlemen who attended the London Tavern Dinner into a pledge in favour of engaging this country in war. Certain individuals of honourable and independent feel ings wished to pay a compliment to the Spanish Nation in the person of its Ambassador : and they were expressly assured that by so doing they should be considered solely to express an interest in the fate of the Peninsula. — They accordingly assembled at a dinner ; and now they are told forsooth that this repast was 66 a solemn ceremony ! " and that 46 they were convened by way of making a confession of faith with regard to Spain !" If so, the whole proceeding must have been a disingenuous trick s and would serve only to disgust any candid mind with a cause which could require such support ; but we will not do the Gentlemen who proposed the Meeting the injustice to , suppose it possible that they could have had any such object in view: Indeed some of those who felt most wormly in favour of the Spaniards, have expressly disavowed all idea of binding either themselves or others to the support of any particular course of policy on the part of Great Britain: [MORNING CIIRONICLEd . The advices from Oporto so late as the Ist instant, have entirely removed the apprehensions excited by the letter from that place, published in The Courier of Monday last, and we hope very soon to have it in our power to inform our readers of the entire discomfiture of this last attempt of the French Ultras to create a civil war in Portugal, on the plan they have been long pursuing in Spain. When Count Amarante's Proclamation first reached us, we considered his attempt at a counter-revolution as the act of a madman, and these same sentiments we now find were excited in the minds of the peasantry of the province, where he raised' the standard of rebellion ; for, with the exception of some dis appointed characters and idle men, whose time and services can always be commanded by money, few had joined his cause.—The Portuguese generally have been able to appreciate the benefits of the new order of things, and although as in all countries, there are men ready to rouse the prejudices of the people, from personal motives, yet in Portugal the effect can , only be temporary. Amarante has been eclipsed by the numbers of great and able men the Portuguese re volution has brought forward, unaided by titles and distinctions. The law has made him equal .with the rest of his fellow-countrymen, and the pride of ancestry, and selfish vanity, have ren dered him insensible to the public good, and `,made him the tool of a party, impelled at the present moment by revenge, and by the most un worthy motives to destroy the hopes of the coun try. Fortumately, the Portuguese peasantry are cautious and reflecting, and not easily led astray. They are bound to their present institutions by every feeling of patriotism, by the many advantages and social blessings of which the Revolution has put them in possession, by their love of independ ence and peace, and by their zeal for the cause of intelligence lied moral improvement. Under the old system, they were the feudal vassals of a few pampered Lords, like Amarante, neither possessed of virtue or talents. From this degra dation they have been raised by the Revolution, and the Constitution by which it has been fol lowed secures their rights. It is to this impor. taut event that they owe the present union of public power and private liberty their regene rated country enjoys, us well us that impulse which contributes to national prosperity, and these benefits they will not exchange for fetters and shame. The threatened danger from without has, besides, united the Portuguese, in the same way as it has done the Spaniards, and they are ready to forget their local animosities when na tional safety is the order of the day. This feeling is prevalent in the whole of the Peninsula. • [BRITISH PRESS.] We received at a late hour last night the Paris Papers of Tuesday. • As ~ we anticipated, the ' insane revolt of 'Antennae has - ended in early and total discomfiture. A letter from Vigo assures us, that the troops of the Censtitutional General Rego have exterminated the unthinking fanatics whom the Count Amarante had excited by his in trigues. Tht Authorities of Galicia sent to the Pron. tiers of Portugal the regiments of Arragonand Bur. gos and a party of the militia of Pontevadra, to repulse Amarante, in case he appeared otv that side. The Conde Abisbal had totally routed the bands of the Frenchman Bessieres. The Conde had his head.quarters at Agreda, eight leagues from Soria. Bessieres was on the 4th of March at Sepulveda with only 40 horaemen,and entirely isolated and cut off from the scattered remnant of his band of traitors ; it is thought he was flying towards the Sierra de Cuenca. The Contitu. tional General. Torres, having come up with. the factious in Lower Arragon, took 600 prisoners. The Political Chief of the province of Soria had written to .Bessieres, advising him to profit of .the amnesty. The Conde Abisbal, in a dispatch dated Agreda, March. 3, has written to the Go. vornment that the factious are entirely destroyed ; a great ninnberHof these unfortunate wretches have been made prisoners, others have :been killed, and numbers profited .of the amnesty offered, which produced much good. The. Consti. tutional General O'Daly took from the insurgents their treasure, and the greater part of their am. .Munition and materiel. It is stated that the greatest activity prevails.at. Bayonne in the pre. Orations.. for war, and every thing announced that it would commence sootier than was at first imagined. They write from Bayonne that several tallith of the bands of factious in. Spanish Navarre. have refused to recognize the authority. of Queseda, notwithstanding. the great,care. he took. to notify to them the new commission and autho rity with which he was invested. It appears from private letters that Mina has written to Madrid that he is, in no want of money, and that he looks for above 30,000 muskets to arm the volunteers of Catalonia. It is positively stated that Mequinenza has fallen , into the hands of Mina, and that the bands of Bessieres are entirely dis persed. The lateness of the hour at which we received these Papers last night prevents our making any further comment on the intelligence they convey, than merely to express the un feigned pleasure we feel at Spain and Portugal both succeeding in ridding themselves of domes tic traitors. There is not now throughout Spain a band of traitors worth recording, and the revolt of Amarante, in Portugal, is no more. Both countries will now be able to devote all their energies against the foreign foe, and, united, they will be invincible, and ultimately triumphant. PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. ( From the Leeds Independent, March 11. The debates in Parliament' respecting the property of the Church in Ireland and the Otange Societies in the same part 'of the United Kingdom, will be perused with much interest and cause serious regret for the mode in which the Opposition appear determined to act. The motion made by Mr:. Hume • upon the subject of the Irish tithes•could never be put in exe-- 'cution without the utmost danger to the ecclesiastical este iblishments of these realms, independent of its manifest injus• tice to the individuals against whom it would, in the first in stance, operate. Much, indeed, has been urged on the emo 'luments of the Irish Clergy, and' the comparatively small part ; of the population for the administering to 'hose spiritual needs they are thus remunerated, but the calculation made out so ;'greatly in favour of reducing their revenue, is not under dertaken without evident proof of an unfair bias in the calcu lators against that body, whose income they are anxious to curtail: That the number of Protestants in Ireland is not as large as could be wished, every one will readily . allow, but that on such grounds the Clergy arc to be deprived of their' property, will not so easily be granted. The Protestant Mi nisters of the sister kingdom have ever been zealous in the dis charge of their sacred functions, and it is not to' their apathy or neglect, but to the fat al ' ascendancy the Roman Catholic Priests have over their congregations, that so' little fruit of their labours has yet been visible. We con sider the Irish population completely enslaved by their Catholic pastors, as much so indeed, as any of the nations of whose priestly thraldom we hear continual censure from the ,gentlemen with whom Mr. Ilume's motion originated. The great complaint is that these bigots have to pay tithe to a Clergy, of whose flock they are not members, and by whose labours they do not profit. But can their obstinacy or infatuation be adduced with any shadow of justice as arguments against the remuneration of that Clergy, or in proof of their inefficacy ? Certainly not; and the very attempt' at so doing only be trays the weakness of their cause, who build their hopes of success on such unstable foundations. The government of the countfy and the Protestant establishment must stand or fall together. Any efforts directed against the one can only be regarded as so many attempts at undermining the other, and it is to be hopcd,for their own credit's sake that the Opposition are not aware of the mischief they are preparing for both, by sanctioning such,motions as' this of Mr. Hume. If the Clergy can without injustice be deprived of their cclesiasti . ... 'cal property, by the same rule Government would be fully au thorized to adopt the suggestion of another Member orthe Op position,.and annihilate the' national debt without wronging the fundholdeses, who have furbished money for the exigencies of the State. Theother motion brought forward in the House of Com mons' the intention of which w as t o suppress the Orange Clubs, is equally objectionable, at the present crisis especially, with that for sequestrating' the property of the Irish Protestant Clergy. That the Orange Clubs have been of essential service in times of great danger and alarm, is a fact which cannot be contradict-. eti: We are willing to admit that in sonic instances the difib rent political feelings of this body, and others with whom they have come in contact, may have been attended with un pleasant effects ; yet still we must argue that these in convenitacies are nothing in comparison with the be. nefits accruing from the existence of these dubs.— During the disturbances in Ireland the Members of them were ever distinguished . for their strenuous exertions in maintaining good order anti subordination. Latterly they have been accused, though assuredly on no good grounds, and by men too whose accusations should not be received but with the greatest caution, not to say suspicion ; of fo menting disturbances, and recently of contriving an un manly assault upon tile Lord Lieutenant. To condemn any set of men, for the bad conduct of one or two individuals, is not the m ode which Englishmen are accustomed' to pursue, yet in the case of the Orange Men this has been done both in - and out of the House. The destruction of these Societies would, in deed, be a great point gained witha certain party, and therefore hardly to be wondered that means, at alllikely tattecomplish it is this end, should be eagerly laid hold of. The attempt, how ever, has been unsuccessful, and we trust ever will be so. They are amongst the worst enemies of a State who would disperse the members of societies like these, instituted for the defence of the laws and the maintenance of good order. AMERIC A. The banking mania has broke out with fresh violence at New York. There are at present not less than sixteen applications before the legislature, for new ban s—ten of thun to be located in one city. Some of these applications are, we believe, made in derision of others, and certainly the legislature of that state will give just cause of derision if it needlessly multiplies these iustitutions. (Extract of a Letter to the Editor of the Franklin Gazette, dated Washington, Jan. 30.) " The Bill for the more effectual protection of certain do mestic manufactures was taken up yesterday. Mr. Tod, the Chairman of the Committee who reported the Bill, made a .very able speech in its support. This day he was followed on the same Aide by Mr. Holcombe, wlio took a very commanding view of the policy of the country, which he illustrated by reference to that of other nations in a very impressive man lier. Mr. Tatnall, of Georgia, replied with great warmth. In the course of his speech, he called the Bill an " nal Bill," and in conclusion said, that the people of his " section of the country could not submit ;" that 1 ‘ they ought not to submit," and that 44 by heaven, they would notsubmit." Thus is the standard of rebellion to be raised in Georgia at the very moment when she is earnestly engaged in trying. to make one of her citizens the President of the United States. This fact is a better test of the views of the Secretary of the Treasury on the subject of manufactures, than can be found in the naked denial of a•frivolous timeserving print in this district." A letter from Rome says :—" We had yester day the requiem of CANOVA performed at the church of the Saint A postoli. All the Acade micians attended, and his finest monumental works were ranged in the church in. Gesso, and the two noted lions were placed on escti side of the door. The church was partially hung with black, and the music and ceremony were very imposing, The poetry was by MisEatra." The same writer mentions that the Duke of DEVON.. MIRE has bought ail the modern sculpture of merit in Rome. On Friday last, Mary Algal:non, the keeper of a brothel in Edinburgh, was tried in the High Court of Justiciary in that city for the murder of William Ilawat, who had gone to her house with others in a state of intoxication, The Jury found her guilti, but recommended her to mercy, on what grounds it does not appear. The Lord Justice Clerk, in passing sentence of death, Faye her no hopes of any mitigation of punishment. She was ordered to be hanged at Edinburgh on the 16th April ; her body to be given to Dr. Alexander Munro ) for dissection. COMMON COUNCIL. A Court of Common Council was held yesterday at Guild ball, for general business. TILE PIIILANTHITOPHIC SOCIETY. Mr. JONES moved that the Court should confirm the report of the Bridge-house Committee, recommending to the Corpo ration to sell to the above-named society, the fee-simple of the ground and buildings in St. George's-fields, which they held by lease expiring in 1052. The motion was opposed by Mr. Dixoar, and the Court di vided on the question. The numbers were as follows c—For the motion, one Alderman, .18 Common Councilmen ; against it, 20 Common Councilmen. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. Mr. OLDHAM brought up the Report of the Committee to whom it had been referred, to consider the most eligible plan for holding two Courts of Session at the Old Bailey. The worthy Gentleman observed, that the subject of the report was one of great importance to the public. It had been calculated, that by having two Courts sitting at the Old Bailey at the same time, not only would the duration of the Sessions be shortened by one half, but also that the expense which the City at pre-! sent incurred would be materially decreased, as well as the trouble and inconvenience to which prosecutors and witnesses were subjected. The Committee had directed the clerk of the City-works to select a proper site for the erection of the new court, and to deliver in an estimate of the expence of the build ing. The clerk of the works had reported, that a building to the left of the present Old Bailey Court, which was used as the record office, might conveniently be converted into a Court, and the expence of the alteration would amount to about 4,5001. The proposal for making a new Court had received the appro bation of the Judges and the Recorder. It was intended that • the Judges should sit in one Court to try offences of a grave nature, whilst cases of a lighter character would he tried in the other Court, before the Recorder or the Common Serjeant.— The Worthy Gentleman concluded with moving, that the re port, which merely . contained a recommendation of the plan which he had described, should be confirmed. . Mr. Alderman Woon observed that he had, as long as 14 years ago,. recommended the holding of two Courts at the Old Bailey, because he was convinced that it would be of great ad vantage to the public, and less expensive to the city, than the present system. After a few words from Mr. Alderman YEN AB LES and Mr. TAYLOR, in support of the report, the motion was agreed to. LONDON BRIDGE. Mr. OLmIAM brought up the Report of the Committee ap pointed to imjuire into the merits of the petition of Mr. B. Mesnard, which complained that the box in which his Specimen of a Plan for a New London Bridge was contained had been violated. Mr. Oldham stated that the Committee had most scrupulously examined into the circumstances, and ascertained that there was no ground of complaint whatever ; and that so little cause of complaint had been given to Mr. Mesnard, that his petition was frivolous and vexatious. Some further business of no importance having been dis patched, the Court adjourned. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

The examiners for the Scholarships being unanimously of opinion that the literary Merits of 11. Browne, of Corpus Christi College, and J. Price, of St. John's College, were nearly equal, thought , proper to re. fer to that part of the - supplementary clause of the foundation deed, which directs in such cases to whom a preference should be given. It appears by the University Calendar that the number of members on the boards of the respective colleges amounts to 4277, being an increase of 112 since last year, and more than double the number in 1804.

The deer went off with . great swiftness across the fields towards 111 r. Peen's, at Stoke. Soon afterwards the huntsmen brought the hounds to where the cart was; they immediately got into the scent, and the whole went off in full speed. By this time the deer had got across several fields a-head of the hounds; the deer ran across Stoke Common,leaving Bulstrode Park to the left, taking to the right of Uxbridge, where he ran across the country, and was taken at Hakes, to the left of Hounslow, after an excellent tun.
