THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Exturcts frem the Morning Papers, Sept. 24. [THE TIMES.] There are those who will recollect to this day, the part Which we took in the attack upon the :Danish fleet at Copenhagen; how we applauded that act, as a wondrous display of British , energy and courage, and how we maintained the pro propriety of the enterprise, upon the acknow ledged principles of the laws of nations. A tardy, but irrefragable proof that our opiniops were right, and the conduct of our Government just and politic, appears in the Memoirs of Fouche.— e are aware that some doubts have been ex cited as to the authenticity of the work. The doubt, however, our readers should be informed, i#, whether all that Fondle wrote has been pub lished ; and in that doubt we have no slight rea sons for participating : but every sensible man must perceive, from internal evidence, that what. ever is published is by the hand of that reputed author. We have no reason for flattering the public that the ensuing part Of the, work will not be subjected to the same censorship... In the fol lowing manner, then, Fetich° writes of the.en terprise to which we allude • " About this time it was that we learned the success of the • " attack upon Copenhagen by the English, which was the first " derangement of the secret stipulations of Tilsit, by virtue of " which the Danish fleet was to be placed at the disposal of • " France ! Since the death of Paul 1„ 1 never saw 'Napoleon . " give himself up to such' violent transports of passion. That • - which astounded him most in that vigorous stroke (virsfweux " coup de ittain) was die promptitude with which the English " littrifstry to o k t h e ir reso l u tion. He began to suspect some new " qeachery in the Cabinet, and gave me orders to ascertain if it had nothing to do with the ill-will created by a late re " a J,"--that of Talleyrand from the Office of Foreign Secretary. The publication of such a document as the pre ceding is unlucky for those who have written histories,, in which that action is comprised, do 'scribing it as " base,' unprovoked, cruel," and we know not what. As to other sapiences, who :,..only : marle speeches ou the occasion, present effect yr,al probably all they aimed ttt : we humbly act upon 'more durable principles. The justice of the•Copenitagen expedition is now, we presume, finally settled. • [NEW TIMES.] The private accounts which we receive from Spain continue to present the' same melancholy picture of disorganization and confusion which has displayed itself for years past ; and the change of. Government seems to produce little more ease, as has been eloquently said on another subject, than the change of position on a bed of „agony. A recent letter from Cadiz mentions some impressive particulars. " An English Gentleman (says our Correspondent) came hither a few days ago from Gibraltar. lie wits escorted part of the way by a detachment' of General O'Donnell's Royalist Army from . Algesiras: the men had nothing like discipline, and many of them amused themselves with singing Constitutional songs all the. way. You must not, however, suppose from this that they would not be ready enough to plunder or ill-treat any body who had the mis fortune to be marked out to their vengeance as a Negro, for that is the term of reproach for a Constitutionalist. Shortly after the affair at Ta iiffa, about 30 half-pay Spanish Officers were ap prehended at Huelva, and brought prisoners to Seville,where they were beaten,pelted with stones, wounded withknives,andotherwisecruellytreated, on their way to the gaol, by the common people— not froth any loyal feeling, but merely from that love of cruelty and licentiousness which, 1 am sorry to say, characterises the Spaniards of the present tiny. At Seville the populace frequently seizeladies in the streets, and cut off' their hair, if they'think it too long ; sometimes, in the same brutal.. manner, they shorten the petticoats of the ladies: The gates of Seville are closed every' evening at sunset, and never opened till sunri4; and this is rendered necessary by the bawls of robbers. which are prowling about in every direction through the country. In shor4 there are every where such scenes of horror and confusion as can scarcely be conceived by any but an eye witness; and what is passing at Madrid is even worse than we experience in Andalusia" [MORNING POST.I Wt received last night, by express, French Papers to the 22d inst. and the Etoilc of Wed uesday. The civil, militury, and religious bodies of the State having done fatiguing the new Mo narch with their addresses, had resorted to an employment less likely to prove. irksome to its object—that of sprinkling holy water over the dead' 4c,ing. From morning till night the con course of iprinklers, we are told, was interrupted, but oohing Was *Rid about, the tears that, were shed. The funeral ceremony, according to the Quotidierme, was to take 'Aire yesterday, which is much earlier than it had been originally an nounced. nut this may relate to the mere rend. ing of, ti,e Service, and not 'te` the lation "of the body to the AtiVey of St. The same Paper .contains an article. evidently from the pen of Viscouut Cliateauhriatid,` which, though written in the same,spirit,ns.the last, be trays more of the author's secret feelings towards the Xing by whom he . was twice disgraced„...: Uncleer tip pretence that the infirmities of Louis X VILL precluded him from exertions. which the , present Monarch is personally rnore able tcymake, it points, out many things which be had not done, or willeh, will be better done by his suocessor.- . ln opposition to the reign which is ended, it states tbat, the reign ,whicie begins 4 ‘ , will be im pressed with the two distinctive and character istic Wl:(pes ,t t, Charles X.—goodness and sin celity. 4 60 are, not, disposcd to dispute the fact, for we believe Charles X..to be by nature eminently good and sincere ; but the manner in which 'the ennouncement is made implies that his dePatt 4 d,4rOther .was deficielit in those virtues. qui§ksevere, charge., however, is that which m 1 )(4444,014 following passage It is above all favinie ; c ! f individuals, ,of services rendered to thi" 14 0,144r.0hy, of ancient acts of devotion to thq , :Eltrunil i ,of victims ..not' yet consoled,' of talents neglected, that , we.expectmany changes. The soul of our '.Priuces will speak should there be any intention of removing a tried servant.—. Gratitude wilt at last have its representatives." This is an ebullition of mere personal feeling, for Louis XVIII. could not do more than he has done in favour of the emigrants, whatever the consolidation of the Monarchy may enable his successor to do, without endangering its very ex. istence. Neither can the removal of Mr. de Chateaubriand (the " tried servant," we sup. pose), from his Councils, be considered an act of ingratitude ; for the Minister who opposes the line of policy espoused by his Sovereign and the majority of his colleagues cannot expect to, remain entrusted ►cith the execution of the Royal will. [n arn s I'l Ess.] In the German Papers received yesterday, the charge is repeated on which we made some ob servations a few days ago, viz. that assistance is rendered by the English agents in the Levant for the subjugation of the Greeks. In this instance t is roundly asserted, that there are 44 English seamen in the Captain Paella's fleet; obtained through the intervention of Lord Strangford."— This calumny so outrageously absurd, that it hardly deserves any kind of notice ; nor should we, after what we have recently done, have be. stowed a word upon kin refutation of the charge, but that 'we have seen with regret that an Evening Paper is disposed to countenance these slanders, by calling for a 46 . more distinct reftna tion " of them. We would rather wait till the charges are more regularly preferred. When we hear the Greeks themselves raising a complaint against the unfairness of our Government, or the unfriendliness , of our countrymen, it may be time to give a clear and distinct refutation to'charges clearly and distinctly preferred ; but while we have no authority but French letters and German. 3,ournals, it is enough to return a broad and general denial to the loose and sweep ing accusations made against us. There can be no doubt, we apprehend, that his Majesty's Mi. nisters are determined to act upon the principles of a strict neutrality between the parties in this struggle. The Greeks know well, that any re. presentation as to the misconduct of the diplo matic agents of England would meet with imme diate attention, and as they have every facility for communication with this country, and are aided by a Committee of great talent and re spectability, who at the same time are certainly not liable to the suspicion of being desirous to smother any reasonable matter of complaint against the Government, we conclude that the silence of the Greeks goes further in our favour than the charges of all the Frenchmen or Germans that ever existed. It may be, however sorry we should be to learn the fact, that some English seamen have entered into the Turkish service.— Among the virtues of English seamen, it is not usual to include much depth of reflection, or careful consideration of the nature of the under.. takings in which they embark; anti some may therefore have been picked up by the artful agents of the Turks in the ports of the Mediter ranean. If any are in this situation, we have no doubt, however they may dislike their duty, they will, with characteristic honour and courage, dis charge it ; but, even in that case, no ground will be laid for a general attack upon the British pen. pie ; nor is any journal warranted in saying that the conduct of these men is " a stain upon the British Government." [MORNING "JERALD. There is in on E ven i ng Paper ( T he Courier) . of last night, a long and somewhat curious descant upon the foreign poliey of this country, since the accession of Mr. Canning to the Ministry. It is, in fact, a sort of umende honorable to'the Right Hon. Gentleman for something of shyness shown' towards him on his acceptance of Office, and for a. lingering attachment either to lu deceased pre decessor-.;..-or thoie of his survivors in the . Cabinet ,Who inherit e d hi s p o li c y an d hi s personal:feel- ings. . The.deceused Minister is now sacrificed to the ,livingand even certain • persons of no mean name, station, or jufluencer who suspected Mr. Canning of Liberalisth, and wished:a diner intimacy with the , Holy Alliance, are thrown overboard. -- ,. Through a thick envelope of flattery and ambiguity'' there are discernible in this .article some glimpses of right Bri tish policy and of jug observation. It com mences, however"' with a panegyric upon Mr. Canning's disinterestedness in accepting office, which might have been spared. He could, it is true have gone out to India. But is it matter for panegyric that he was not so destitute of public Spirit or legitinnite ambition —so sordid or so vain—as to prefer ,mere revenue and the gor geous pageantry of Asia, to the eminence which hi has attained at home iR the State, the nation, and in history ? The patinode comes next. — Fears, it seems, were entertained, that the public service would have suffered by the suhtraction of Lord Londonderry; WhQ, gi by having mingled largely in the great transactions of the, pre ceding eight or nine years, and by having personally assisted at conferences with the Monarchs and 'their Ministers, had necessa rily acquired With FurA,ign Powers great personal influence and consideration. But, on the other hand, it was hardly in the nature of r things flint those perional c on f erences should have left him ; 4s perfectly' unshackled as if he had discharged the functions of his office through the ordinary , diplorriatio channels. .11is successor had none of these advantages; but, on the Other hand,he was 1 free and unfettered. Therecould be no implied assents ; no assumed :agreements; no tacit in. ferences, to embarrass the decision upon any question that might come before Mr. Can. ning. Whatever course might be, decreed, was susceptible of unobstructed execution."-- Possibly such fears were entertained—but by whom, and to what extent, is 'another ques tion. The real truth is, that Eord London- derry,' by his personal intercourse with the Fo reign Monarchs and Ministers, was disqualified— absolutely spoiled and adulterated, for a British Minister, independently even of the assents, in ferences, and embarrassments, which the Courier acknowledgeswith tolerable fairness. No Dri. - - - tish, Cabinet, Minister, and least of all, Lord Londonderry should ha've been sent into this circle of Monarchs.. and Ministers. Ho could' hardly avoid committing himself. He must have been borne away by the current, even from a sort of ,false shame. He finds himself in the midst.of Ministers, possessing and exercising un bounded discretion and power, without the fear of a Parliament or a people before their eyes. An English Secretary of State in such society feels mortified at his limited powers, and will commit himself rather than avow the full extent of his restrictions and his fears. There is, besides, the danger of being drawn in, by constant intercourse .and communion, within the whirl. pool of arbitrary principles. Who can doubt that Lord Londonderry suffered both influ ences ? Even his advocates allow that he com promised himself and his Government by indis creet engagements, expressed or implied—and as to his being tainted with the doctrines and no tions of the continental Monarchs and Ministers, he gave but too many proofs of it even from his own lips. He could hardly conceal here, what he openly avowed abroad, that there was some thing exceeding vulgar and bourgeois in British liberty. His mind and his vocabulary—the one, by the bye, an image of the other—both weak, vacillating, and incorrect, were alike infected, even to a silly affectation, with, if it may be so called, continentalism. This affectation, too, was equally absurd and pernicious. It is well known, that from his imperfect use of the French lan guage in conversation—his ignorance of the ordi nary topics of discourse—the literature, the arts, and the Court gossip of Europe, he was little better than a baby in the circles in which he moved—the very reason, perhaps, why his affectation was so flagrant and exagge rated. Had a mere diplomatic representative been sent out for this purpose, his , perils and temptations would have been much less. It is to be hoped no Cabinet Minister will be sent again on such an errand into such a school of perversion. The probability, indeed, is, that such another occasion will not occur; as the situ ation of the contracting parties was at the time really unique. Whether Mr. Canning, had he gone out, would have returned with his principles and his vocabulary in a state of derangement, it is useless to speculate. But it is certainly an advantage to the nation and himself that he was not exposed to the danger. [MORNINa Some most important Parliamentary Papers respecting Ireland hav4. just been distributed.— One of these is a Report of the Committee ap pointed to consider the beet mode of apportion ing more equally the local burdens collected in that country, and to provide for a general sur vey and valuation, with the Minutes of Evidence, and a valuable Return of the Baronies, Parishes, and Town-lands, with the extent of the latter in acres, of the different Counties. But a still r m n e o r t;e t of curious t henumber lnb e e r r t o h f a t a t c t r l e t s is, be i l s on t g h i e ng " i S o t - the Church in Ireland, distinguishing such as form part of Glebe Lands, and distinguishing such as are uncultivated."--This statement has long been eagerly wished for by those who, from their anx iety for the Church, feel uneasy least its share of the soil of Ireland should not be fully ade quate to its wants ; but the Bishops, with the re tiring modesty, so becoming in Christian ministers, shrunk always from the public gaze, till now—ask ing nothing for theroselvesond confining theirsolici ' tations to grans for the relief o rth, We may form 'some idea from these Returns, of e urns, t of the incomes of the Sees is entitl e d. credit to which the i r io d o . r brethren. n fa t 4IS top of Limerick's account the Estimate which Mr. Hume adopted from Mr. Wakefield, and which the good Bishop objected too, is muchtitav:iidoeirlitegaillylhgadton f too low. —Mr. Wakefield had e t w he o r f ea t l he vtueofthe estates Bishopricks, saysti conjectured by well-informed persons, He in stances--- The Primacy Derry Kilmore Waterford, Clogher X 140,000 per atpunn , 120,000 100,000 70,000 100,000 unis coejectural estimate is fully borne out by he Parliamentary Returns. Armagh contains 51,880 Irish acres of arable land and 11,390 acres of mountain and bog. Derry contains 41,804 acres cultivated, and .63,032 acres uncul;. tivated. Clogher has returned 9.1,320 acres cul tivated, and 5,747 acres uncultivated ; but some of the tenants have omitted to make returns from inability, and we are left in the dark as to the proportion their possessions bear to the whole.— Meath has 11,880 acres, arable and :pasture, and 6,494 mountain .and bog ; Dublin, 15,049 arable and pasture ; Elphiu, 22,776 arable and pasture ; bog and mountain, 8,240. Tuam and Ardah, 17,687 arable, pasture and re-claimed, 8,543, the whole including mountain, bogs, &c. 49,28 1 2 acres. Wakefield estimated it at, 8,600 acre 9. Let these be taken as a specimen, and let it be borne in mind, that the most of these see lands are among the most productive. in Ireland, and the wonder c not be lila mien a young Bishop or 'Arch - 1)41)6p 'may be worth half a million. It is notfair to take the reierved rents at a criterion of the EpisenPal In comes.. If the fines are taken by a predecessor for . Leases current during the incumbency, fines are also taken for leases current during the future incurn::ency, the- one may be placed against the ether. We have heard of a fine for a-single farm large oni, no doubt), of upwards of 40,000/. The worst of the matter is, that hardly any irn- provements are hoer made on these Church lands, and that on looking from an eminence the boon. Juries can be distinctly traced, from the wretched appearance they make. compared with the rest of the country.

There was no attendance to-day, the Betting Men not having yet returned ; a very strong muster is expected to wind up the St. Leger accounts. The payments, however, after the Northern Races are not so large at Tattersall's as after Epsom or New market, the bets being generally settled at the place where tle cided. After Monday the betting will become interesting on the Derby and Oaks, and the different Stakes for the October Meetings. DONCASTER. RACES.—LWEDNEsDAY, SEPT. 22. The attendance to-day was not so numerous as on the pre ceding days, in consequence of many perSonS who had waited only fbr the determination of the St. Leger having departed, but still the Course presented an animated and brilliant appear ance. Great interest was excited by the bill of fare for the day, which was very flattering ; and the fact of Canteen and Bru tendorf being entered for the Gascoigne Stakes greatly increased the anxiety of Sporting Men, as it was calculated to afford a certain criterion of the powers of the two horses.

Whilst the Parliamentary Commission was at Glasgow, it was intended by the Merchants and Manufacturers to express their sense of the portent services rendered by the Commission to the Commerce of the Country, and it was deter mined to invite them to a Public Dinner. We have much pleasure in laying before our Readers the following Correspondence which took place between Mr. MoNTEurn and the Right Hon , THOMAS WALLACE, on this occasion : Glasgow, Sept. 16, 1824. Sin—The Merchants and Maufacturers of this City, deeply impressed with a sense of the great sevices rendered to the country by the Parliamentary Commissioners of Revenue In. quirt', and entertaining for them the highest personal respect, are desirous of availing themselves of the present opportunity of expressing their feelings, and, with that view, they most re• spectfully solicit you and the other Commissioners to honour them with your Company at a Public Dinner, on any day that my suit your convenience. With sentiments of the highest consideration and regard, I have honour to be, Sir, Yonr very humble and faithful servant. HENRY MONTEITH. To the Right Hon. T. Wallace, M.P. &c. &c. Glasgow, Sept. 18, 1824. Sir—l yesterday had the honour of receiving your letter, con veying the sentiments and intentions of the Merchants and Manufacturers of the City of Glasgow, which I loot no time in communicating to the other Members of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry. • In their name, as well as my own, I beg to assure you, that we have receiv e d w i t h t h e hi g h est gra tification ex' oPfresthsei°nCoomfmthisse pecul i ar l y c apable of those interests.

O n Friday bat - Magistrates visited the several houses for which licences ive! e sought, and among them Vauxhall Ganlens. They consequence of the representation of a Reverend Gentleman'" Magistrate, that the walks which were not lighted were liable to be applied to a very different purpose from that which Inle t be expected, or was originally intended. The Visiting Mae' crates perceived that possibilities presented themselves in tiles t shady groves, not at all consistent with moral entertainmen ts ' and upon inquiry they ascertained that there were partie s e ! whom a general strong diffusion of light would be extras]. inconvenient. It was suggested that a complete and.impst b 4 ., did se II lighting up would reflect a moral credit upon the estab" 3 ment ; that watchmen should be so disposed as to preveolf% offensive conduct; and that any of them influenced by should be dismissed. The late hours kept also formed _„ l4 ject of discussion.
