THE LONDON JOUANALS. DAILY ,11:atracts from the Morning Papers, April 29. [Tie r•. hl Es.] We have received the following letter from a Well-informed quarter, and we beg to call parti cular attention to a series of questions with re pect to the llegency in Spain. Those questions, if:answered in the only way Which our Corres pondent supposes to be conformable to truth, would not only involve the French Government in a charge of the basest duplicity, but we should think would subject one who is more in a situa tion to satisfy the demands of justice to a very awful responsibility. Has Ferdinand given his sign-manual to the establishment of a Regency, acting itt unison with foreigners, who are slaugh tering his subjects, and ravaging their country ? " The French Government, when questioned with respect to the new Spanish I.legency, declare that they have nut recog nized it. The question of its recognition is extremely im portant, both from the principles which it announces, and the authority which it assumes ; and it is' to be feared that in this instance the 'English Government is duped by perfidious de clarations, as it has beep in many others. That the Spanish .tuna is acknowledged by the French Cabinet as the only legi timate Government in Spain, there cannot be the slightest doubt. Let the French Ministers'answer the following questions, and then we shall see what is meant by its denial of recognition to the Junta : " I. Is not Eguia, who is at the head of the Regency, pro •vided with full powers, signed by Ferdinand's own hand, to establish a Regency ? Was not the signature of Ferdinand to the paper procured through the French Ambassador at Madnd? And has not Eguia concerted with the French Ministry, both_ about the name which the new Government should take, the kind of proclamation that it should issue, and the functions which it should exercise ? " 2. Have not the members of the new Supreme Junta of Spain and the Indies been nominated by the French Go vernment ? " 3. Is not the new Spanish Junta attached to the head quarters of the Duke of Angouleme ? "4. Is it not pensioned by the French Government ? Has it not been paid by M. de Martignac certain sums already, and is not a provision of 2,000,000 of francs henceforward to be set apart for its support? " 5. Did not his Royal Highness write to the Archbishop of Tarragona, the Bishop of Valencia, and the Bishop of I.Trgel, from Tolosa, between the 11th and the 15th of April, requir ing those three prelates to come and occupy their places in the Junta established at his head:quarters? • " 6. Does not M. de Martignac, the King's Civil Commis 'sioner with the Duke of Angouleme, the double capacity of adviser of his Royal Highness and Ambassador with the Junta ? " 7. Ilas not M. de Martignac counselled the former, and obtained the consent of the latter, to allow no provincial juntas, because they might clash with the Supreme Junta ? " 8. Has not the Duke promised to establish this Junta at Madrid ? " 9. Do not the`French require submission to the Junta as the price of their protection ; and have there not been instances of persons required to leave Paris because they refused to ac knowledge it ? Surely it is high time for the Eng Government to be awakened to the perfidious conduct of France in supporting, and at the saute time appearing . not to acknowledge, the Re. gency. There will be a curious denouement of this mystery when the French reach Madrid. The Regency will then have the four liloly Alliance Ambassadors, and Ferdinand those of England and the United States. The Regency and the French Government mean, by the obnoxious articles in their procla mation, to deter English capitalists from supporting Spanish independence." [MORNING The Debate on Mr. James Macdonald's Mo tion on the subject of the late Negociations has been adjourned to this day. Indeed, from the number of those who must be anxious to express their sentiments on this question, it would not surprise us if the Debate should be'still further prolonged. ; There is nut a reflecting person in the country who does not believe that Ministers, by acting with proper firmness, might, have pre vented the unholy IVarogainst Spain. Even Mr. Wilberforce shares this belief. But, then, the Government of England is identified with the Holy Alliance.—The cause of Spain is not the cause of King's and Boroughmongers.—The great fear expressed by Ministers is not for Spain but for France.—Mr.Stuart Wortley admitted, " that the conduct of the Allied Sovereigns struck at all the principles on which our CotOtitution was found ed, and attempted to shut the door to the admission into any State of any thing but rational liberty," , and that there was "a perfect agreement through out this country," with respect to the conduct of the Foreign Powers towards Spain. Lint this agreement throughout the country will not de tach the Government from that Holy Alliance of which he so much reprobates the conduct. The curious spectacle is just now exhibited of the nation honouring the Representatives of Spain and Portugal by every possible demonstration of respect, while, in the highest and most influencial quarter, they are ail but insulted, But Mr. Wortley knowns, or ought to know, that an Un reformed Parliament wilt not and cannot prevent this contradiction. Does he think The Courier Newspaper' does not know in which character honour lies ? Whatever be the result of this contest, there can no longer be any mistake hereafter with respect to the character of the English Government. The day of delusion is gone by for ever. [NEW TIMES.] rm. Lisbon Papers of the 18th present a me lancholy picture of the state of Portugal. The civil war, which has coutinnPd ever since the 21st of February, still rages with unabated fury ; and the Constitutional General Luez Do Itego has rendered himself infamous by ordering a whole town to be - burnt ! it is deeply to be lamented that the cause of Liberty should be -disgraced by such horrible enormities:— Yet the only three individuals who, in modern times, have actually resorted to this barbarous and inhuman mode of warfare, all professed to act in the name of Liberty—namely, Buonepatte, Mina, and Do Rego. Buouaparte, in 1796, burnt the towns of Binasco and Lugo ; Mina, last year, issued a Proclamation of Castelfollit, in pursu ance of which one of his subordinate officers burnt a town in Catalonia; and Do Rego has now burnt the town of Trindade, in Tras-os- Montes. Without entering into the merits of the particular systems of Government which each of these men was at the time defending, we do wish, that for. the sake of humanity, some pro test should be entered against the cruelties which they practised. It is particularly incumbent on the avowed Friends of Liberty and Humanity in the British Parliament to do this, for the sake of vindicating their own consistency. Let them reflect on the dreadful consequences which must ensue if these examples should be come precedents to he universally followed. Let them consider that it is rank hypocrisy to ex claim against single and double instances of alleged cruelty, and wilfully to slur over the savage barbarity of burning a whole town to the ground.—Be it remembered that Mina and Do Rego, who now exercise such cruelties against their insurgent countrymen, were themselves in surgents no longer ago than 1820. Ere a short time elapses, they may need the exercise of that humanity which they now deny to others. At all events, some public and solemn reprobation should be expressed of a mode of warfare so shocking to humanity and so disgraceful to a civilised age. [BRITISH PRESS.] The debate on Mr. Macdonald's motion on the Foreign Policy of the Country, and the Nego ciations at Verona, was last night adjourned, on the motion of Mr. Peter Moore, to this day. Mr. Macdonald's ispeech was a very able one ; but there would be little wisdom indeed in marking out at present for Great Britain any line of con duct.but that of a firm and honourable neutrality. She needs repose after her past mighty exertions, and without it the country never can recover from the pressure that weighs upon it. We are far from indifferent to the cause of - liberty in Spain, nor have we a doubt that it will ultimately tri umph. France cannot conquer the Peninsula, or retain a permanent possession of any part of it. Spain, thrown on her own energies and feel ings, will yet meet the invader at every step. We must regret that a higher and a firmer tone was not assumed towards France before the ne gociations closed ; but a war would now be ruin ous to the finances of the country and the pro sperity of its people. Peace is essential to the welfare of Great Britain ; and we think Mini sters wise in the determination, if possible, to preserve it [MORNING POST.] Lord Holland has embodied the very acute reasoning of the Opposition, upon the advice offered by the British Government to Spain, in the imperishable form of a Protest against the division of Thursday in the House of Peers. --England, anxious for the preservation of peace, although she had deteraiined for her self not to embark in the existing quarrel, naturally and wisely interposed her good offices to remove, if possible, the ostensible grounds of complaint, so far as she deemed that they might be removed, not only without injury, but with positive and obvious advan tage to that party in the threatened conflict with whose cause her immediate feelings and her con tingent interests were more intimately blended. This, it is said, was wrong, because the existing Government of Spain was bound by oath not to effect any change in her institutions till after a certain period, which has not yet arrived. It is a sufficient defence of the British Government against this charge, that the proper construction of this oath is a matter in dispute amongst the Spaniards themselves ; that it was no part of its duty to define the precise extent of its obligations ; that, in fine, it merely suggested what -it thought a prudent and beneficial line of conduct, leaving every question, whether of policy or of consequence, where it ought to be' left, to the free determination of Spain. The British Government did not undertake the duty of casuistry as well as that of intercession. The conduct of England is condemned also, be cause it offered its advice to Spain, ignorant whe ther its acceptance would have propitiated France, and without any assurance of her own intention to assist Spain in the war, if the changes she recommended should prove insuffi cient to avert it. If these changes had involved any sacrifice on the part of Spain—if they bad tended to produce any injury, or any chance of injury to her, there would have been some weight in this objection. But so far from this, they were no other than the very changes which the most enlightened and influential of her own Statesmen wish to effect, when the period fixed by her Constitution for the reversion of its forms and establishments shall arrive. England besides, it is obvions,could not have received from France and communicated to Spain the precise constitutional changes which would alone satisfy the former (if any such changes would indeed have satisfied her), without degrading herself into the agent of a Power, asserting by the very communi uation terms,a pretension the most haughty, overbearing, and unjust ; nor without at the same time divesting her own friendly suggestions of whatever value or authority they might be supposed to possess, by blending them with the insolent dictation of a menacing and hostile Slate. If England, on the other hand, had made the compliance of Spain with her recom, mendations the condition of her ultimate assist ance, would she' not thereby have violated the great principle of her own policy, and lave be come a direct party in the whole transaction ? Would she not have incurred the imputation of being also a dictator ? Might she not have exas perated that conflict of parties in' Spain which it was so important to allay ? The Solicitors to remedy. the evil of Counsel being called from one Chancery Court to another, have agreed amongst themselves to give briefs to certain 'Counsel for such l.usiness as they wish to go before the Chancellor, and the same for such as is brought before the Vice-Chancellor. SUOCKING SuictnE.--On: Saturday morning, a gentleman named Bates, a ruler in the King's Bench Prison, put a period to his existence in his bed-room. His arms and throat were cut in a dreadful manner ; and he was found under the bed, with a razor grasped in his right hand. i -i 41.4?,1".1 . , lii .? .. -..„.„ ,_.:.., .

ALNWICK.—The Birth-day of his Grace the Duke of NOItT ri- UMBERLAND falling this year upon Sunday, it was celebrated, for the 18th time, on Monday, the 21st instant, by two respectable companies, in Alnwick, of nearly eighty persons each. Several Gentlemen of the County dined in the Town ; and the tradesmen of the town ;at the Star Inn. The entertainments were, respectively, very creditable to Messrs. Wilson and Coxon,_ who provided the dinners; and the wines were good. In the Hall, Thomas Forster, Esq. of Adder stone-House, was in the Chair; and on his right and left, Messrs. Clutterbuck, Collingwood, Shaw, and Gibson : the Vice.:Presidents were, Sir David Smith, and William Burrell, and William Clark, Esqrs. After the King, the Chairman gave the Duke's health, with a very neat and appropriate speech : then followed several toasts, embracing the rest of the Royal Family; and the House of Percy; which were in termixed with other complimentary ones, of a local and per sonal nature; 'and several songs were sung. About nine o'clock; a deputation was sent from the gentlemen at the Star Inn to the Town Hall, to thank the President, who, with a Committee, had paid a like compliment to them ; and a just tribute to his Grace's character and virtues, his kindness to his tenants, and support of the Borough of Alnwick, was well pourtrayed by Mr. Hindmarsh, on the part of the tradesmen and inhabitants of the town. The day passed off with great harmony and good humour, and both parties separated about eleven o'clock. Rejoicing guns were fired through the day, and the populace, were regaled with ale. It is understood that the lion. Mr. Liddell is to be chairman of this anniversary meeting, in April next, at Newcastle. Tuesday evening, .Alnwick ex hibited a very gay and pleasant ball, at Busby's rooms; and on the 23d, the naval and military gentlemen in the town dined with Sir David Smith, to celebrate his Majesty's Birth-day. The Dake of NorthuMberland's Birth-day was celebrated at. North Shields with proper respect. The ships in the harbour hoisted their colours, and various flags were displayed from the ropery of Win. Linskill, Esq. and Co. during the day. 1' 0 E T It Y. ADDRESS Spoken by Miss CLARA FISHER, at the Dublin Theatre, April 15, 1823. Many the ways Poets arc forced to try To raise the Laugh—or draw the tender Sigh ; Whirst Actors anxious in the Drama's cause, Try various arts to merit your applause : And I, an Infant, not yet twelve years old, By former Plaudits grown perhaps too bold, From Britain come, to join the mimic train, To try to-night your favour to attain ; Should your applause my humble efforts crown, • And escape once more the Critics frown, What tide of joy will animate my breast, And every doubt and fear be lull'd to rest. Strange it may seem but true I do assure you, At six ;fears old I acted at Old Drury In Garrick's Lilliput, with mimic strain, Cried—" Conscience avaunt !—Richard's himself again !" " Hark !—the loud Trumpet sounds to horse—away !" ".My Soul's in arms, and eager for the 'fray." If I thrive here, I'll come again to please ye, Or what's more likely, come again to teaze you ; Our Sex 'tis said, in teazing take delight, But who would teaze kind friends like these to-night ? No, to amuse shall be my aim alone, If I succeed, the harvest is your own. Sir Pretfid Peevish will most likely say, " Who can endure to see an Infant play ? " Sit's much too short, unworthy our regard." Acting should not be measured by the yard, By such a standard should we acting try, 'Our greatest Richard is not six feet high. Genius and Talent to no size confined, sgiven by Providence to all mankind ; Indulgent fleav'n—protector of us all, Bestows its blessings .on the short and tall. On- this bright circle may it ever smile, An crown with happiness fair Erin's Isle. • F. G. F. Tl►e Earl of FIFE has arrived in town, from his seat in Scotland. His Lordship's cause comes on in the House of Lordsduring the present week. All the most eminent Counsel at i dthe Scottish bar are employed on the occasion. Miss WiLsoN, who two years ago made so successful a debut at Drury-lane Theatre. and subsequently in Ireland, is going to Italy to per. feet her taste in that celebrated laud of so►►g. Property having been missed from her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA'S premises at "Frogmore, particularly truss bound straw, from the rick, the person who had the charge of the premises took the precaution to cut several small pieces of stick, in a manner to enable him posi tively to swear to them ; and which he thrust into the middle of,a number of the trusses ; and on Tuesday last, (22d instant) more straw being missed, -diligent search was made, and four of them were found with the identical sticks that had been placed in each. On Thursday, Win. Clarke, —, th e wife or -- Green, and Eliza, the daughter of -- Houlden, at each of whose premises a truss of straw was found, with the stick as before stated, underwent an examination before the M'ayor of Windsor. Clark was com mitted, and Houlden remanded for furtherexami nation, the father having absconded. Green was discharged.—(Bucks Gazette.) The Pr - ovost of Aberdeen has received a re spite, during his Majesty's pleasure, of the sen tence of death passed upon Peter Scott, at the last Circuit Court there, for murder. LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Arn.lL 28. COUNT EICTIULEMBUita V. BOYD AND CO. This is a case which has frequently been before the Court, and has been argued at considerable length. his a question relative to a sum of money due from the firm of Boyd, Benfield, and Co., to the Count, and with respect to the delivery by the latter of certain.debentures in his hands. It will be recollected that Messrs. Boyd and Co. were agents in this country for the Emperor of Austria,.and were employed to contract a loan for the Emperor in' this country. A loan was contracted, and the Count became a holder of debentures to a considerable amount. The firm of Boyd and Co. afterwards became bankrupts, and the Count now claimed the interest upqn the debentures. His Borrow" said he had written an order in this case, which he would read to the parties concerned. It directed that Count Schulemburg should be paid the sum of 3,000/. claimed by him, upon delivery of the debentures. He had framed the order in such a manner as to prevent the payment of the money until the debentures had been delivered up. PREROGATIVE COURT, Axial. 28. GILL V. GILL. This was originally a suit brought against Mr. Gill,.a Gen tleman of fortune, for restitution of conjugal rights. In bar of the suit, Mr. Gill pleaded that his wife had been guilty of adultery. This allegation had been tried by the Court, which ultimately pronounced a sentence not only acquitting Mrs. Gill of the charge, but declaring that her innocence was com pletely established, and Mr. Gill was ordered by the Court to take fits wife home, the sentence directing in the usual terms, that he should treat her with conjugal affection. In March 1822, he brought in an allegation stating that he had obeyed the sentence of the Court. On the part of the wife, it was denied that he obeyed the sentence of the Court, and treated her with conjugal affection. Evidence to this effect was heard, which stated, that when she returned to his protec-1 tion, he again charged her with infidelity, and treated her in such a manner as compelled her to leaVe him. The Court then pronounced him contumacious, and refused to dismiss the suit. He now appeared before the Court alleging that he had sub mitted to the sentence, and praying to be dismissed. Doctor SWABE V appeared on behalf of the wife, and objected to the dismissal ofilfr. Gill, on the ground that the orders of the Court had been disobeyed by Mr. Gill in sending his wife a letter, in which he repeated the charge of which she had been declared innocent, and also on the ground that he did not take, his wife to her proper home. Mr. Gill himself replied.—He did so to prevent his Counsel from the necessity of making statements disagreeable to the Court. He entered into a detail in which he said he had done all in his power to conform to the sentence of the Court, but was prevented by the obstinacy of his wife, who declared she would not go down to Rihafa. The Court sentenced him to " love, honour, and cherish" his wife. Now this was impos sible. All the law co u ld oblige him to do was to receive her in his house, and provide her with all that was necessary for her comfort. The Court were bout*, to act on the principle of the Commo n L aw , w hi c h on ly bound man and wife to live together, allowing him to tell her of her faults and exhort her to amend, allowing both to use towards each other any ex pressions they might think proper to adot, and him to do what he bad not done—to beat her, provided he did not beat her outrageously. Ile then contended that he had acted in con formity with the Common Law. He proceeded to read the letter which he had sent to her, notwithstanding the admonition from the Bench that it would be injurious to him, as it contained calumnies against his wife and libels upon her friends. The letter accused the Judges who had heard the charges of having decided improperly, and upon statements made out of Court. But Mr. Gill said,' that whatever construction might be put upon the letter, yet he had subsequently implicitly submitted to the decrees of the Court. Sir JoitN ?''tenor. recapitulated the circumstances of the case, and said he had. hoped that a former recommendation, which he had given to the unfortunate Gentleman to accorumo date the business, would have been attended to; but after Mb re petition of such conduct towards his wife, as had been testified, it would be injustice to her not to pronounce him ai continuing to act contumaciously. The petition of Mr. Gill was therefore rejected, and he was refused a dismissal from the authority of the Court. MR. CLARKSON. The JUDGE to-day pronounced' that the suspension of Mr. Clarkson (which had taken place in the Prerogative Court, of Canterbury) for the space of 12 months, from► the exercise of his profession as a proctor, and which suspension had been notified to this Court according to the Judge's directions, Should take place and enure in the Arches Court also for the same term.
