We regret to see 'The Morning Chronicle, which ttil gla be the chief organ of a CONSTITUTIONAL O PPOSITION, such as ought aiwaysito operate as u "etk upon MitCF,ters, making use of the Spanish I nsurrection, not for the mere purpose of attack ing the present King of SPAIN, I , ut apparently with a desire of degrading the Roikt.

This insidious plan we have sCatched, imd our:;eives petstladed that such is the real purpose .of those constant tltitiopts to represent t he King of SPAIN as a Tyrant, and the sen tinlehts o; - the Insurgenta as the general voice of -t he Spanish People. a King fealty anxious for the vrifare of the people, and a people proverbially loyal of all times. The Chloniele at first styled t he military mutineers Constitutionas, though it knew that, to fact, they were oti!y adverse to t he Colonial Expedition. To-day The Chronicle exalts these Mutineers into a character of greater tt"ghitude, for it thinks pr'oper to style them - 11 `e " NATIONAL ARMY." The folly of this designation can only add contempt to the indignation which it excites by its [malignity t owards the Spanish Throne, or rather to the exist 4nce of MONARCHY in all Countries.

It may not he generally known, that doting the progress GI N:Aiesty(then GRoaGa's) Education, the late Sir WILLIANt (then Mr.) MAC:Tr:STONE read his Lectures as Vinerian PrO• lessor at Oxford, and that at application was made to that excellent L,wyer, by the Noble person who had the charge of his Royal High ness's education, to read his Lectures to his Royal Highness. Mr. BLACKSTONE was at that time vtig4V,Cd 41til a very numerous class of pupils, and therefore declined the high honour, but he transmitted copies of his Lectures to his Royal Highness, who thus derived a part of his know ledge of our excellent Constitution and Laws from those unrivalled Lectures, which were after wards published under the title of " Commen taries on the LA ws of En land,'' which may be estimated to have passed through thirty Editions in England, Scotland, Ircland, and other Coun tries, have been translated into Fietich, Dutch, and German, and now form a part of the Edu cation of almost every foreign as well as Eng lish Lawyer. Temple, Feb. 17, 1820. A LOTAL SUBJECT. SHIP NEIL'S. The following Extract of a Letter from Nassau New Providence, dated the 13th Jativry, was re ceived at LLON ID'S this. morning : " Accounts having reached this that a piratical schooner, with a Spanish felucca as her ptize,was at anchor at Green Key (a small island in this vicinity), the schooner Primrose, of this port, was manned, armed, and sent in pursuit of 'her. This vessel succeeded in taking the felucca and schooner, but the men made their escape into the woods. The Captaiu of the Primrose, riot consi dering himself authori s ed to lend his people in pursuit of them, returned to port. 11is Majesty's schooner Speedwell, Lieut. GEARY, having in the mean time arrived from Jamaica, proceeded imme diately to Green Key, in hopes of being. able to secure these people, but on her arrival it was found they had put to sea in their boats, which the Primrose very inconsiderately left behind on the beach ; they are said to be 12 in number, and will no doubt seize (In the small vessel that COUICS in their way. Three men belonging to this place have been taken up and put into jail on a charge of aiding and abettii , g these people iu their piracies. " JAN. 15.—Since the above was written the whole of the people belonging to the piratical ves sel have been taker) on Andros Island, where they landed in their boats, and reported themselves as seaolen belonging to an Ametican vesstl"thAt had beer cast away on the 133118111 A Bank. Having been brought to this place to-day, they were wow identified, and fudged in jail."

PLYMOUTH, FEB. 19 —Arrived yesterday the Bideford, AP - Namara, flout Lisbon ; the Bri tannia, Sharp, front Shields for St. Helena, was off the Start the 15th inst. (From " The Plymouth Telegraph," Feb. 19.) We have been favoured with the following Ex- tract of a Letter from St. Helena, dated the Ist of December last, by which it appears that a ma terial contribution to the health and comfort of our gallant seamen has been connived, which may tender that station in in future more palatable to them than it has been:— " The Admiral has commenced a famous Convalescent Hospital at the Naval Farm, lliio Peak ; it is about eighty feet long, and eighteen or twenty wide ; indeed is now nearly boarded up, and I suppose about Christmas will be ready to receive some of our weak subjects. It will be of the utmost consequence to the sta tion hereafter, as a ship's company coining here feels the climate very severely after being a few months from England. Our people are now, I ant happy to say, better than they have been at this season the t_wo former years, and, I trust, will not have the attacks of the last. We have now no more than 26 or 2S men sick in the whole squa dron, which consists of Upwards of 1300 ; and the year before last we had at least 100 in the sick list.' _ Letters from Rio Janeiro mention that the Su perb,: 74, (Coi'DlTlotiore Sir THOMAS HARDY), Captain WHITE ; Vetigellr, 74, Captain F. L. MAITLAND ; and the Hyperion, Captain T. SEARLE, sailed for the River Plate on the sth-of December, to join the Creole, Captain Bowt.us, and the Tyne, Captain FALCON : —Sir THOMAS was sear t,r in c onsequence of the Buenos Ayres Go vernmvnt levying d Vexatious impost .on our mer 'chants, which it was impo4sible for them to pay. A .few hours before the late Duke tie BERRI procreded to the Opera, his Royal 'Highness or dered the transmission of the additional sum of 1000 francs to be distributed among the poor of Paris. Thus,, if his last words bespoke an innate I principle of clemency—his last action was ODE of k true beneficence ! POETRY. AN INIPROMPTIJ On the DEATH of his late MAJESTY, GEORGE Me Minn.

They breathe the language of devotion and loyalty, and if they are the effusions of sincere repentance, we e.ir nest ly hope that they will operate in his favour, and that Iris Mal Lsry's clemency will restore a Member to Society whose future life may make atonement fur his past misconduct.

Our venerable Sov'reign falls; He liv'd belov'd—lamented died, His Kingdom's glory, boast, and pride!

Borne by thy lore, to hoary hairs, He left his Sceptre, with its cares, When fully ripe, like corn cut down, To wear a bright Immortal Crown! REGISTER OF FASHION: FASIBONABLE PARTIES.

A society has been formed to carry into effect the good and gracious e.c of his .Nlajesty, in ap propriating Dartmoor Forest for the employment of the poor of the Metropolis, particulatly the pauper children ; and his MAJESTY has become the beneficent patron of the Society.

KING'S THBATRE.-After the Oprra of La Cenerentola, on Saturday, which went off in the. usual manner, a new Ballet was brougnr forward under the title of Panurge. The story, of course, was originally derived from RABELAts, and the following is a brief outline of the Plot : Panurge, shipwrecked on a country called the Isle of Lan terns, finds the people sacrificing to an idol in a temple close by the shore; they take shelter during the storm, and in the interim Panurge takes the dress off the idol, puts it on him self, throws the figure into the sea, and takes his place. When the natives return he. descends from his station, and is received at first with awe and astonishment, but they after wards assume courage, and celebrate the descent of their deity with feasts and rejoicings. In the Priestess, Panurge finds his wife, who reminds him that he is m irried, which he acknowledges, but intimates that it had escaped his memory in the course of his travels. The reunion of this happy pair gives rise to'anoth'er fete, and the. ballet concludes. This Ballet was composed by Liot.i.ttN from an Opera of the same title, the music by GraF.Tz. It is so well prepared, and the Petfortners were so excellent, that it was very well received. " God sate the King" was sung in the course of the evehing, ttitli the following additional stanza, and was applauded with ,1011(1 acclamations _ - Thou, whom protecting Heaven, Ilas in its bounty given To be our King ; Long be its blessing pour'd, On England's Royal Lord— Right and might in his sword, God save the King! There was a large and elegant audience. DRU nY•LANR. —The Siege of Belgrade intro duced Madirtne VesTats on Saturday at this The atre. Her voice is not very powerful, but well toned, anti she is evidently a good musician. St;e was much applauded, particularly in the Dancing Song, which was encored. BHA AM was finely in voice, and the Orra altogether was well sup ported by all the Performers. The House was well attended.. GENERAL ELECTION. The certainly of a dissolution of Parliament, at no very distant period, has put in motion the usual activity of those %Ow - aspire to a seat in the National Legislature. liar many will offer, aml not be acc::pted, is a tolerably self-evideut trwh ; but it is not quite self-evident, at least to the parties themselves, upon whom the mortification of being rejected, will fall. If we are not greatly mistaken, this calamity awaits some who were carried into the prestosa Parliament by a tell tide of popular clamour which it will be difficult again to create. There has been s salutary and important re-action of the public mind, within •the last twelve m onths ; a re action, fatal, we suspect, to the pretensions of those who rested their claims to support upon the single excellence of being Reformers. the magic of that name is now•chiefly4icknowledged by those enlightened individuals whom the Consti:ution wisely confines to the privilege of coating and rioting on the outside of the hustings. 1:s inti mate alliance with revolution, its undeniable ten -dericy to s , thvert the existing institutions of the country,' and its connexion with indiyi - duals whose private characters are notoriously iotamous, have all concurre4 in producing that. abhOrrence which will manitest itself, we anticipate, in a very beneficial matinee, at the ensuing elections. To say " I am a Reformer," will not be an immedi ate passport into the [louse of Commons. , The country is awakened to the Mischievous impos ture, awl unless some mode can be devised of ob taining Universal Suffrage first, we do not think the question of Parliamentary Reform generally is likely to prove in a very thriving condition among the Electors of the British Empire.—(Bir mingham Chronicle.)
