THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, June 27. [MORNING TILITALD.] The following is an extract from a Letter which we received last night Though no telegraph has yet announced it, M. Chateau briand says that he has certain information of the King 'of Spain's Deposition. His Majesty was forced into his carriage, witl► a guard on each -side of him, and surrounded by 300 chosen troops, tsith orders to puffer no person to ap. proach, and thus carried off to Cadiz." Our corespondent says nothing of the King having been restored to his functions in Cadiz, and indeed his boing accompanied by the Regency of three, would seem to indicate that no such in tention was entertained by tl►e . Cortes. We received last *night the Paris Papers of Tuesday. They give no additional details con. corning the late events at Seville, nor do they announce, in an authentic' manner, the arrival of the King and Gortes at Cadiz. In a Proclama. tion issued by the'Provisional Juhta at Cordova, after the stone of the Constitution was thrown down there, we meet with the following aster tiOUS The National Representation was sold to intriguers, was composed of heterogenous 'twits, nourished in its bosom hateful passions, was incapable of conceiving one idea useful to the country, or of forming a system of - finance. General bankruptcy threatened every family in the nation with ruin. Everywhere was per., ceivuble the absence of Christian morality. Re. ligion was attacked with all the weapons of im.: piety. Disorder constuned` fhe social body, already approaching to its dissolution, and rendered necessary legions of invisible spiis anti informers—means odious, but indispen. sable to' a Government without strength or steadiness. Justice was no more than a word; pa t. riotimu a disguise, liberty a phantom, and virtue a lie." It concludes thus Dearly be- , loved Ferdinand! at the end of thrde years of revolution, misfortune, and slavery, , under the disgraceful yoke of treason and tyranny, we de posit in your hands the sovereign authority. We hope that, on your part, you will answer to our confidence by the means which you will employ' for the prosperity of the State." This address needs no comment. Cordova was esteemed one of the most Constitutional cities in the South ; and it is matter of regret to find that it does not retain sufficient spirit, while blaming the excesses of the e past, to trace out some securities for the future, 'besides those of throwing themselves un conditionally into the hands of the King. From Bayonne it Is said that the unimpeded and sue. cessful 'passage of the French army over the Sierra Morena had excited astonishment amongst the most incredulous. Well it aright; for, by abandoning that pass without a struggle, Pla. cencia betrayed the cause %Odell ho affected to support. rt is said, from the sante quarter, that St. Sebastian's was becoming discontented, and that it already felt a want of the first necessaries of life. 'This, howeirer, we have been told for tame time: The Quotidienne labours hard to show, that, in consequence of, the events at Se. yule, Great 'Britain wilt withdraw her Minister, istousaNG POST.] Without pledging ourselves to approve the conduct of the. Cortes of Spain, in the very de licate and difficult circumstances in which they • were placed by the refusal of the King to pro seed to Cadiz, we may be permitted to express our astonishment at the hardihood of certala writers, who pretend to find in the whole trans action a proof of the justice and policy of the Spanish invasion. That the King of Spain had ceased to be a free agent and was subjected to the most absolute and degrading coercion, lies been the unvaried apology for this aggression, flom the moment when it was first meditatid. And now, with a shame less effrontery, oee single instance in which coercion has been applied, is seized, not as a justification of future interference in the af fairs of this independent nation, but as a proof that the assertions on svhich it was defended three or four months ago, were at that time well founded. The vote of the Cortes that the King of Spain hid become incompetent to the diacherge of the Regal duties, may have been founded uPOn a fiction suggested by the pressieg emergency of the moment, or it may have been strictly acmdant , with the fact. In the' 'latter' case, the question re specting- tlie"Justice or the injustice of the invasion is in no degree affected. In the former, and perhaPs the - more probable case, is it not clear th ihe' assertion of the King's previous iikiresse is completely negatived ? Ily what con eeivablo motive could the Cortes, if it already held the Mng and Royal Family captive, b e actuated, when they promulgated to the world a falsehood so entirely unnecessary and useless ? This vote, calcUlated as it is to suggest suspicion and to attract calumny, must of necessity have been extorted from the reluctant Cortes by the consciousness that in no other way could it ac quire that absolute dominion over the Royal person, rliich for months has been ascribed to it by the enemies of Spanish independence. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] Extract of a Letter from General Pope, dated Lisbon, May 30.—" You, will be surprised to learq, tbat the Prince D.Mignel, son of the King, reyelto at the. bead two regiments. Yester day, beneral 3epillv9da went over witli another regiment. The Provinces are in complete revolt. I am in the midst of treachery anti infamy. How ever, this 'Morning the national guards came to aettiaptling that I shotrld put myself at their bead. What a contrast between their conduct sing that ~ of o'e adds , I shall remain in this eity so long as there is a breath of Portuguese liberty.—The 30/h in the evening. I resume my pen to tell you, that 4 even the King has joined the factious All is lost I—The marine has also revolted !" We have in Spain and Portugal a melancholy instance of the demoralizing influence of the Ca tholic religion. In all Catholic countries, the po pulace, from being kept in a state of profound igno rance, are, necessarily, greatly debased. Where ever the mass is ignorant and debased, revolution is easy, because the abuses of a Government, unchecked by an enlightened public opinion, be come every day more insupportable, till at length they' render revolution almost inevitable. But when the revolution is consummated, the middle and intelligent classes, who are sensible of the good they had gained, and determined supporters of the new order of things, have the mortification to find that advantage is taken of the ignorance of the lower orders, by those who have an in terest in the existence of abuses. Thus we find that all the revolutions in Europe, within the ,last forty years, have taken place in Catholic countries, as in France, Poland, Spain, Portugal, Piedmont, Naples, &c., and that in All these coun tries the populace have either turned on the first emergency against their benefactors, or remained indifferent. A Catholic country may be said to have always in it the materials of revolution of one sort 'orotlier. In Protestant countries,abuses can hardly ever be so shamelesslypractised, and consequently they are with difficulty revolutionized. When a change, however, does take place,- it is clung to pertinaciously. It is only in the Protestant parts of France, such as Alsace, Tor instance, that a strong love of liberty pervades all classes.—ln Spain everything will' depend on the strength of The respectable daises, as compared with the - populace.- No - individuals' of character have joined the - French' and. the Priests. Nay, the greater part of the National Guards of Madrid even proceeded to - Seville.- In every province the decent and respectable householders, detest the . invaders, • and remain attached to the Con stitution. It is impossible, however, to`" dissem ble the fact, that the rabble and the courtiers are with the French and, the Priests:—,-(lbid.) [THE TIMES.] The news of a modification of the Constitution of Portugal is confirmed. Yet it seems a ques. tionable matter, whether the merits of either the Portuguese IVlourch, or of the military who have effected this:change, have been suet) as to entitle either .of them to the approbation of the Holy i Allies. For, first, the troops have spilt not a drop of liberal blood, nor wreaked any menu or wicked vengeance on the friends of a free consti. tution. The King has pledged hit-itself neither to despotiSm nor the Inquisition. .He has pro. scribed nobody . —threatened nobody—complain. cd of none—and renounced no errors but those of tyrannical Government. His Majesty has in direct terms declared, that he " by no means wished to " return to the old system , but it was • neces " sary to frame a constitution more adapted to " the Interests of all classes." Now it is clear, that with a large army about him, and in the midst of the' Nobility and old Courtiers of Por tugal, while the Cortes bad no power which there was the slightest reason to dread ; if, we say, the King at that moment expressed him self in terms of kindness and moderation to his people, we may fairly infer that he spoke his genuine ,feelings. If, then, a' more ba lanced and temperate system be called for by the Sovereign, and by the intelligent part of the nation, why should- it, not be tried ? Por tugal is blessed in having an honest and humane Prince upon her throne—who knows how to cherish those noble principles and institutions, to which, nevertheless, he owes the curtailment of his own absolute authority. But, for the Spanish Ferainand ! we ask, can the reign of such a creature be compatible with the security of his subjects, in 'liberty, property, or life ? Had he and his race been de;iosed by his injured people in March, 1820, the title of his successor would have been'identitied with that of the Spanish na tion to their recovered freedom. Enarrisu ram.] Mr. Brougham brought forward last night his motion, founded on the petition from Dublin, on the administration of justice in Ireland. The lateness of the hour at which the debate closed, prevents our this morning stating our opinions on this most important subject as fully and reflect ingly as it deserves. But this we may now de. flare, and that from long knowledge and expe. rience, that the entire administration of justice in Ireland needs revision—that in questions of life, and even of property, furious party spirit, both in witnesses and juries, defeats and banks all the efforts of justice—that the Civil Bill Courts throughout Ireland, where small debts are recovered, have unfortunately increased the spirit of litigation among the peasantry, and alniost destroyed all regard for oaths—that the state of the country is such that distresses for rent cannot often be made; civil process exe cuted, or executions levied, but with armed force, and at the imminent hazard of both life and limb. One half the Magistracy itA Ireland also is yet prejudiced and corrupt. The late changes have done nothing to really alter or re form ►t. They were too partial. The higher judicial offices in that country are filled by indi viduals utterly unfitted for them. The Chan collor, Lord Manners, is a man of narrow and illiberal sentiments; his decrees are question. able, and his political principles opposed to the happiness of Ireland or the union of its People. Mr. Joy, the Solicitor-General, is every thing but an orangeman, and a corn. plete clog on the measures of the Attorney- General. Lord Norbury, the antiquated jester of the Common Pleas Bench, is one of the old school of monopolists and exclusionists in Ire. land. Are these fit men for situations so ele. rated ? Should they have seats within the Tern. ple of Justice, where all ought to be unstained, unsuspected; and pure ? In Englarid, as Mr. Brougham very truly stated, the tiye of the law makes no difference between the rich man and the poor. 44 The juries'are not lacked; the Judges " are decorous 'on the , bench) ,, they never sucri• " lice the dignity o( their elevated situations " for the sake of some ribald joke." No Judge on this bench, like the veteran Nimrod of another country, could coolly pass sentence of execution on a wretched forger, and then in the same breath call to the Sheriff of the County to know on what day his hounds would go out. In Eng land, if a bill of indictment were presented against the most wealthy and ponerful indivi dual, and supported by evidence, it would be found in Ireland, the merits would never be considered it would be sure at once to be ignored. In England, no Magistrate viOuld issue his supersedeas, or bail a capital felony, from mere partiality to the culprit, or hostility to the individual who had received the informa- Lion ; nor would he reject the deposition of any individual to a serious charge, until he had investigated it thoroughly. In Ireland few ma g►istrates would receive an information against an individual of any consequence; and nothing is more common than admitting parties charged with capital felonies to bail, merely on the score of partiality or prejudice. The consequence of the present system of administering justice in Ireland has been, the demoralization of the lower orders, an extinction of all respect for the laws, a ruinous waste of property, and a fearful increase of crime. Ireland never can be tranquil, or its populatienf contented or at peace, until the whole sys,tem is changed. Mr. Brougham introduced his motion in a very able speech, which produced a power ful effect on the House. [NEW 'RIMES.] The accounts through France of a counter revolution in Portugal received full confirmation yesterday, by the arrival of a Mail from Lisbon, with Papers to the 31st ult. They furnish ma terials rather for a general outline than for a de, tailed narrative of facts. On the whole, it is clear that, as in Spain, the people shewed no° syrna pathy with the Cortes. The revolutionary fac tion had been raised to power by an armed force —and by an armed force its short , lived aua thority was annihilated. It is matter of much satisfaction, that the change was effected with , out bloodshed, and it must be the wish of every real friend to Portugal, and to the cause of true liberty, that it may lead to the establish ment of a system - of Government congenial with the habits and character of the people, and cal culated to promote their gradual advancement in knowledge and freedom. The consummation so devoutly to be wished, of combining stability and power in . the Government with rational liberty in the people, is not to be brought about by any sudden effort. It can only be pro dueed by the slow hand' of dine, and by va rious co-operating causes and principles, the thorough comprehension of which is beyond the reach of the ablest politician. History shews them to us in action ; but the man has not yet lived who could so reduce them to consistent theory, and, so understand their effects in prat= tire, as to be able to frame Constitutions fitted for all the necessities, peculiarities, and in terests of different nations. It is scarcely to be conceived that any combination of human intellect could be adequate to such a task. — Can we wonder then at the failure of a few turbulent individuals, setting out upon the very principles of disorganisation., sweep ing away all that they should have preserved of the old foundations, and raising , a crazy fabric of - their ovrn, which must crumble into ruins on the slightest shock of political agitation?' —The intelligence by the Lisbon Mail, al , though mare authentic, is not of so recent a date as some of the advices through France, in which it was stated that the King was completely restored to his authority on' the 3d instant. The' counter , revolutinn commenced on the 27th ult. by the departure of the Infant Don Miguel, with the 23d regiment, from Lisbon. On the same day the event was an-. flounced to the Cortes by direction of the King, The Message was referred' to a Committee of Public Safety, who proposed to declare the coun try in a state of danger, that the King should' be requested to dismiss his Minis4rs, and that General Sepulveda should be charged with maintaining the peace of the capital. Sepul veda was called in, he declared his resolu tion to uphold the Constitution; and stated that the King was profoundly grieved' at the events which had occurred. The pro posal for the dismissal of the Ministers . was then modified, and the King was left to consult the Council of , State on the subject. In the sit ting of the 28th, a Deputation which had waited on the King reported, that their reception had been favourable, and that. his Majesty had re peated his assurances of regret at the conduct of his son, and of confidence in the Cortes. The paper of the 30th contains a Royal Proclamation to the' lime effect, and The Supplement to the same paper announces the desertion (If Gen. Su pelveda, with 9.700 men. A new Ministry had in the mean time been appointed ; and on a Deputation waiting on the King, he is said to have made farther protestations of his 'attach ment to the Constitution. We have next his Pro clamation, dated Villa Franca, May 31, in which he states that he had taken the present step in conformity with the wishes of his people, who had declared themselves decidedly against the existing institutions, and in order to avert im pending ruin ; an d that his only desire was that a constitution might be established by which the dignity of the Crown and the rights of the Citizen might be placed on a secure basis. The private letters state that it was not at all probable that there would be any resistance or reaction, as the troops had all joined the King ; and the people, as far as they cared at all about the matter, are favourable to the change. We under stand that some Members of the Lisbon Cortes have arrived in London. On Saturday, the 21st ofJune, the Rev. G. P. BOILEAU POLLP.N, A. B. Domestic Chaplain to tho Right Hon. Lord NORTFIWICK, was instituted to the Rectory of Little Bookham, in Surrey, on his own petition, as true Patron, void by the re signatiou of the Rev. 11. MEARS., SOUTHWARK ELECTION.-(KR ROOT. WILSON.) Yesterday a body of the Electors of South wark, to the number of 300, dined at the Horns Tavern, Ken. nington, to celebrate the election of Sii ROBERT WILSON as the Representative of the Borough of Southwark. It had been advertised that Mr. LAMBTON would take the Chair, but he was absent on account of indisposition, and Mr. Alderman WOOD supplied his place as Chairman. After dinner the following toasts were proposed and drank with three times three :—' The King"---" The sovereignty of the people"—" A speedy and effectual reform of the House of Commons",-" Sir Robert Wilson, land may the spirit he has evinced in the cause of freedom lead to the destruction of Bour bon tyranny." The CHAIRMANI next proposed as a toast ." Lord Erskine and the trial by Jury." Lord Ensxner rose amidst loud cheering to retire thanks for the honour which had been conferred upon him. He ex pressed his opinion of the necessity of a reform in the system of representation, and his abhorence of the Bourbon aggression on Spain, and said that he was glad to have an opportunity of de claring his sentiments upon those subjects, because he felt he bad not long to live, and that his public life indeed might be said to be at an end. He felt honoured in having his name coupled with " trial by Jury :" it was the highest compliment that could be paid him. Mr. WETHERSTONE, after complimenting Mr. Lambton for his zealous attention to the interests of the Borough of Southwark, in the absence of his friend Sir R. Wilson, pro posed the health of" John George Lambton, Esq. the zealous and undaunted friend of public liberty ."— Dra nk with three times three, and loud cheering. The following letter from Mr. Lambton to Mr. Wether stone explaining the cause of his absence, was then read to the Meeting : " Cleveland-row, June 26. "My dear Sir,—lt is with deep regret that I have to an nounce to you my total inability to attend the Southwark dinner this day, in consequence of a severe indisposition, which has confined me to my room since Friday last. I did not give up the hope of being able to go, until the last moment; but I now find it quite impossible. This is a severe disappoint. mem, as I had anxiously looked for this opportunity of proving to the Electors of Southwark how highly I value their exertions in the cause of independence, and how willing I am to contri bute any slight services which it may be in my power to render in furtherance Of that important object. "I had also anticipated the greatest pleasure in witnessing their cordial approbation of the step taken by my gallant friend Sirß. Wilson—a step which not only they, his constituents, must approve of and admire, but which entitles him to the respect and gratitude of every lover of libeity and national independ. eine& It was sufficient for him to know, that the strong and powerful of the Continent were all arrayed against the weak and defenceless ; that the time was come when it was to' be dc. cided whether liberty and knowledge or slavery and mental debasement, were to rule' the earth--w hether the legitimate revi were to be allowed with impunity to tyrannize over, imprison; and murder, the enslaved many. It was sufficient for him to know, that for these purposes the Botabons were about to over run Spain, destroy her representative system, annihilate her free institutions, and re-establish a despotism foUnded in ignor., ante and superstition. " It was then that lie felt that delay would be a crime of the greatest magnitude against the principles which he entertained ih common with his constituents. At great personal sacrifice of convenience and foitune, he left England ; his very landing on the shores of Spain was productive of the most beneficial conse quences; and all who:knew his military talents; his extratirtli: nary bravery, his unbending; determination, his energy, and ac tivity, must anticipate, as I do, a series of actions, which will not only confer honour on him but on his country of whose wishet and sentiments he is the true representative. 'Vali regard to the cause in which lie is' embarked, I need only repeat my firm be. lief that it must ultimately be victorious;. I.care not for tem; forary success—the French armies may extend themselves rom the PYrenees tothe walls of Cadiz—they may corrupt the weak and the base, . In which every country abounds,. and with these materials form regencies and issue boasting proclama-; tions : still their work of subjngation is not the less distant front its fin a l com pl e ti o n. The unconquerable; never-dying spirit of liberty may be smothered for the moment, but a spark will always remain from which Spanish valour and patriotism will raise a flame which must eventually consume their oppres sors. Requesting you once more to convey my sincere regrets to the Meeting, 1 beg leave to subscribe myself,. Yours, very truly, "JOHN GEORGE LAMBTOX." " George Wetherstone ' Ego:" The reading of the a bo ve letter was followed by great applause. Sir F. Hurdett'a health was next drank with the most lively: marks of approbation, as was also that of Mr. Hohhouse. Mr. Honirous E said lie wan proud to hear his name men tioned with approbation by so respectable an assembly. He he mtis A t find (atilt --it L it r w d a o s E d rs ia k t in in e then allitiled to the observations whi c h h a d fallen from Lord which d ress Erskine, and observed, that there ri bi e c n h d h 's e a was one lan of his Noble talked wi dying.ab thw o l u li t ch could never die. , --(Applatise.)—The strenuous exertions of his Noble Friend . on behalf of liberty, were as immortal as the genial, which gave birth to• them'. Let not that Noble Lord think, that when the cote neon fate which awaits all men, should have placed him by the side of the great indivi duals who had gone before rum, his name would be con signed to oblivion. It Was natural upon the present occa sion to advert to the struggle now going on in Spain, in which their Gallant Representative had gene to take a part. He •saw no cause to despair of the triinuph of freedom in Spain.-- appiause.)— Against that conntry was arrayed the mbar for midable confederation that had ever attempted to trample on the liberties of mankind. Besides open foes, the Spaniards had also to ' contend against pretended friends!--(Applattse.)—lie blushed to think that lie was' addressing an assembly of a people whose Government, instead of placing itself as it ought, in the vanguard of independence, had chosen to put itself in the rear of despotism. He would repeat, that he saw no reason to despair of the success of the Spaniards. It was, however, a fortunate circumstance that there were 200,000 teen in Spain who were compeomised by their exertions in the cause of liberty --who knew that if tyranny were restored, there would be no pardon. for them. They would exhibit no apathy , and if the bulk of the population were at present so infatuated. as not to perceive their best interests, they would soon be awakened to a sense of them by the inconveniences to which they would be subjected by the invading army.--(Applause.)-.. After some further observations,- the Hon. Gentleman con. eluded, by thanking the Meeting for the honour which they conferred upon him. Ttie healths of Mr. Hume, M.P. ; Mr. S. Whitbread, :M.P.; Mr. J. Williams, M.P. ; and Mr. Alderman Wood, 1%1.P., were successively drank. Each of the above-named Gentlemen addresaed the Meeting, but the want of space prevents us from reporting their observations. - The CHAIRMAN left the room about ten o'clock. SPANISH SUBSCRIPTION. The following is a Copy of the Protest ten dered at the Common Council, on Monday last, and which the Court refused to receive : " London, June 10, 1823. " To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor of the City of London. We, the undersigned Aldermen and Members of the Court of Common Council, do beg to lay before your Lord. ship our Protest against the Vote of the Court of Common Council assembled on the 10th instant, on the question for contributing a sum of money out of the cash of this City in behalf of the People of the Peninsula of Europe, as such Vote in our opinion ts'wholly unprecedented, and tends to oppose the system of neutrality wisely adopted by the Executive Govern ment of this country, and sanctioned by the two Houses of Parlia ment; and also as it grants the cash of the Mayor and Com monality of this City to purposes foreign and unconnected with its municipal interests, and because such also appears to us to be injurious to the national benefit.

These were the last legitimate memorials of that mighty master, who, in practically illustrat ing the works of the " Great Bard," left every competitor at such an immeasurable distance.—. Most of the domestic pictures were painted by the express order of Mr. GARRICK, and under his immediate superintendence and direction. — The retired - habits of Mrs. GARRICK, during the latter period of her life, owing to extreme old. age, and the natural infirmities consequent on a protracted existence, had occasioned many- of these rare gems to be forgotten, except by a_few amateurs, artists and actors who could obtain permission to view the interior of " Garrick's villa" at Hampton and his residence on the Adelphi Terrace. it is always of use to know in whose possession pictures and gems remain, in which persons of taste feel a deep interest.-- These relics were sold by Mr. CHRISTIE, at his Rooms in Pall-mall, on Monday last, and his ex ordium upon the merits of the great actor were worthy of the accomplished" Returning Officer," as Mr. CHRISTIE humorously designated him• self, after having awarded Hogarth's very cele. brated set of four Election subjects, for sixteen hundred and fifty guineas, to Mr. SOAVE.

SINGULAR AFFECTION OF A DOG.---We are credibly informed that, a few days since, some person on the opposite side of the river (in Duchess county}, for some supposed, or perhaps sufficient cause, shot a dog, and, as he supposed, mortally wounded him. The dog was in afield at the time, distant, and probably out of sight from any dwelling. He was felled to the ground. A person living adjacent to the spot, severali days immediately succeeding (without having any knowledge of the fact that the dog had been shot), observed his dog daily, after being fed, run with alacrity with part of his rations iu mouth, in the direction where the wounded dog was found ; be was from this unusual conduct or his dog induced to follow him, when, to his ast , )-- nishment, he found that his dog bad been some days carrying comfort and sustenance to his un fortunate fellow-quadruped, who had by this means been saved, become convalescent, and re stored to his master.
