THE LONDON JOURNALS. DA 1 LY Extracts from the Morning Papers, Dec. 22. [MORNING POST.] We were the first to call attention to the ef fects of Mr. hlume's Bill for repealing the Com bination Laws. Scarcely had the measure passed the Legislature, when the working manufacturers in various parts of the country showed a refrac tory disposition, and in Glasgow attempts were made to organize the whole body of the muslin weavers in the United Kingdom into an affiliated society. At present Sewland seems to be in a, state of serious agitation from the proceedings of the " operatives." And what are the objects of the persons who thus combine ?—Not merely to obtain an advance of wages, but to obtain a rower and controul over the affairs of their mas ters. The proprietors of establishments are, in short, to be made the slaves of their own work men, and the man who finds the capital to com mence and carry on business—who employs and pays the numerous individuals that perform the manipulations of the manufacture, and who live on the talents of the Principal, are to have his interest at their mercy! Any thing more preposterous has never come under our observation in the most chimerical periods. Such, however, are the bles sings provided by Mr. hlume's Legislative pro fundity. Because the Combination Laws im posed a salutary restraint upon the conduct of the workman, the sagacious Member for Montrose would repeal them, and thereby restrain the master manufacturers only. So much, too, for the adoption of theory without regard to experience. But we have already so fully exposed the absur dity of the measure, whose direful consequences are daily developing, that we shall not at present pursue the subject further. That some remedy is necessary, no one can doubt ; and, we presume, it is equally certain, that a remedy will be found and applied in the ensuing Session of Parliament. [THE PUBLIC LEI)GEII.I There are private advices in town from Buenos Ayres to the '2d of October. A Gazette of the 11 th September has been also received, contain ing an official account from Colonel Valdes, who commands the Buenos Ayrean troops in Upper Peru, In which he gives the particulars of a suc cession of actions with the Spanish forces in that province. The Officer opposed to Colonel Val des, is the Spanish General of the same name) mho, it will be recollected, had beeu selected by' the Viceroy to put down Olaneta. If he did not succeed better in that commission, than he has in his several engagements w ith his name sake, he has a chance of having his recent ho nours erased, by the same Royal hand that be stowed them ns the reward of his fidelity and triumphs, in the cause of legitimacy. This de gradation, when Ferdinand is apprized of the real state of things, is the more likely, as Valdez, it is known, has a taint of liberalism, having been appointed to his present command by the Con stitutional Government ; and, to remove this stain, he had only one way left—that of dying his sword deeply in the blood of Ferdinand's re bellious subjects in Peru. But, as he had not the requisite mettle for this most loyal of offices, his old sin, in all its enormity, will stand against him in the faithful tablet of the royal memory ; and his Grand Cross of St. Ferdinand, should he return home, would not protect him from the gripe of a legitimate hangman. Colonel Valdes, in his dispatch to the Government of Buenos Ayres, claims uniform success in all his actions with the Spaniards ; and, besides other trophies, about eleven hundred prisoners were the results of his triumphs. As the enemy has probably sustained an equivalent loss in killed and wound ed, his situation would soon be as precarious as that of his countrymen, who were flying before Bolivar. As both Valdez and Canterac were pressed by superior forces ; and as neither of them, under these circumstances, could assist the other; there is every prospect of the war being brought to a more speedy termination than the most sanguine friends of the Independent cause had, a short time since, ventured to anticipate. It is even possible, that tidings of the cessation of hostilities may reach this country before Par liament assembles ; and, as in this case, there would not be a single Spaniard in arms on the American continent, the conjuncture to which Ministers have repeatedly appealed, when it would be their duty, as well as their fixed re sol,e, to recognize the independence of the New States, would have actually arrived. [einerisn .ettEss.] By the Robert, which arrived at Liverpool on Monday, we have received letters and papers from Buenos Ayres to the 4th of October.. On the day previous an extraordinary number of the Argos had beet published, containing the official dispatches of the :defeat of the Spaniards, at Junin, by Bolivar. ,The success of the Coloin, Wails in this skirmish seems to have filled the good people of Buenos Ayres with extravagant demonstrations of joy, The .news is headed in the Argot ,with a pretty well-executed wood cut, representing the Courier Extraordinary bringitig ,the.dispatelles from Chili,. and it is ad dressed, in large characters,• to the attention of the Madrid Gazelle and the „Dale:. of Paris.-- There is no intelligence whatever in these papers, reapectiog Oltineta or the civil war in 'Upper Peru. It is therefore, improbable that the Spanish servile had declared. in the cause of in., dependence, ,as the last:dispatches from Bolivar's: army somewhat hastily, we fear, affirmed. • The fellow ing extract of a : private letter,. from Buenos Ayres, dated October 21, will show how deeply , `retried the South Americans have already become la t h e UM` of the figure .hyperbole:--» • - " Tlib VireStinorland _got out of sight yesterday, carrying with lier minaof 9,6 th ultifitio: We have yet no letters from the other side k Smut if hope some of the vessels sailhig in it few days for; your port will carry you news of interest.. , Dispatches have just arrived tO the Oovernnient with accounts of Bolivar h av ing icompletely thrashed t h e Sp aniards. f have not yet beard the Pan w a" eGrr dcttY , but, perhaps, we intiirlikvc? them ii) print in time. to forward by tilt, conve yance: What: t g ather is, that ,wing the new* we hail snip e time ago is true, and, that l3Ol up with hit array, hid - endeavoured to Bolivar, potent hims elf of the passe* of dOlllO MeVtl 4d n et ! t aw ilia: name) in order to prevent the retreat of the Spaniards, without' a general action. He found, however, that they had passed a few hours before he came up ; and finding it impossible to come up with them with the entire of his army, be sent the whole of his cavalry in pursuit, under the command of Nico cheo, who came up with the Spaniards, destroyed their cavalry, and took a number of prisoners. It is said the infantry came over to the Patriots. Nicocheo is said to have behaved ex ceedingly well in this affair, and has been severely wounded. Lhua and Callao must fall into Bolivar's hands of course, I suppose. If 1 get the Gazette in time, I shall inclose it." [THE TIMES.] We received last night New York papers to the 25th of Novernber,- which arrived at Liver pool on the 2 Oth of December, by the Manhat tan. Though the papers are five days later than those which came by the last packet, they contain no news worth extracting. In our foreign news, under the head CC Aleppo," will be found a Firman published by the Sultan of Persia, prohibiting the introduction of the Bible into his dominions. As we read the man date, we thought that the Imperial author of it was no worse an enemy to Christianity than the Pope of Rome, his Holiness having, in like man ner forbidden the knowledge of the Word of God to the subjects of his spiritual dominion in Ireland ; and there is no doubt that the Bible is equally fatal to Popery and Mahometunism. No one could learn one word of either of them from the sacred hook in which Christians believe. — On looking farther, however, into the foreign news, we learned that his Holiness stands sus pected of being the author of the happy project for proMoting Christianity in Persia also as well as in Ireland, by smothering the authentic re cords—" Catholics as well as Christians believing " the Firman to have been issued at the instance " of the Roman Catholic Clergy."--(lbid.) [MORNING CHRONICLE.] Letters were received yesterday from the City of Buenos Ayres, dated to the Ist October, and the informatiou which they communicate from Alto Peru is particularly satisfactory. From the beginning to the middle of August various actions occurred betwixt the Patriots and Royalists, and the result has been the capture of upwards of one thousand prisoners by the former, along with a great quantity of military stores, &c. &c. Colonel Valdes, the Independent leader on these occasions, has greatly distinguished himself, and should General Canterac make good his retreat on the Royalist forces, commanded by General Valdes, he will only form a junction with forces in an equal degree as destitute as his own. The Liberator, in his dispatch of the 27th August, promised to finish the Peruvian war before the close of this year, and the advices received yes terday from Buenos Ayres do more than render probable the predictions of this distinguished friend to the human race. The official account of the victory gained by the Liberator on the Pith August over the Royalist army under General Canterac bad been received at Buenos Ayres, and had given great satisfaction to the people. [ti EW T mrs.] We rejoice to tied that the disciples of Tom Paine are again likely to be repelled with dis grace from the Ward of Farringdon Without. Many men, who are disposed to allow great lati tude to political principle, are not prepared to go the length of denying their Saviour. The ob jections against Paine's Age of Reason are not merely that the author entertains an honest doubt on questions of the highest import, but that he treats subjects of the most awful sanctity with brutal and shocking mockery. To religious liber ty, In the proper sense of the words, there can not be more sincere friends than we are ; but li berty does not demand, nay, it cannot tolerate, impious attacks on that which mankind in gene ral regard as holy. He who avows himself a dis ciple of Paine avows himself not only to he irre ligious, but to be• regardless of the pain that he" inflicts.on every religious mind. At the close of the poll for the day the Painites were yesterday left in a decided minority ; and there seems little probability that the Ward will ever again be disgraced by the election of Mr. Ex-Secre tary Galloway. Still we say to the respectable part of the inhabitants, come forward, and do your duty us Englishmen and as Christians. rmouNlihro nEnALn.I There is no leading article in this Paper to. day.

The extracts which we have already given from the Reports of Captain Nicuom.s on this great national undertaking, are sufficient evidence of the sense which we entertain of its importance. The following paragraphs skew the saving of time which will be accomplished by all vessels using the proposed canal, instead of going round the Land's End. 44 The most obvious fact to be noticed is the great saving in distance, which the vessels pass ing from the Irish or Bristol Channel into the English Channel, and, vice versa, will effect by using the proposed Canal instead of going round the Land's End, and which saving cannot be reckoned at less than 300 miles. This, under common circumstances, may, I apprehend, be considered as a saving of six days for a direct advance on the voyage of 50 11111e3 per day, will be found to be beyond the average rate of sav ing of coasting vessels. In the difficult nautical directions for navigat ing the English and Bristol Channel, it is stated by some that westerley winds prevail for eight months,in others that they prevail for nine months in the year. The truth, I believe, lies between them. To vessels, therefore, proceeding round the Land's End into the Irish or Bristol Channels, or from these Channels to London and the other Ports in the English Channel and Germanic Ocean, there are about nine chances out of twelve that they will meet with contrary winds during one half their voyage. Looking then to this last circumstance, as well as to the sating in distance, I am quite sure that vessels navigating between the above-named points will on an average throughout the year save fully a week's sail in each passage out and home, by using the canal instead of goitg round the Land's End, reckoning that the passage of a vessel through it will occupy about a day and a half, for the width of the canal being ninety-five feet, vessels will be able to pass each other with facility ; and as it has on the whole a level range of 34 miles for navigation, uninterrupted by locks ; and as moreover the direction of the canal will be nearly north and south, whenever the wind shall blow from the eastward or from the westward, as it most gene rally will do, vessels will be able to use their sails with advantage in passing through it ; and I see no objection to their being permitted to do so under proper regulations. Sloops and fore and aft rigged vessels will mostly be able to sail through : at times recourse must be had to tracking, either by the crews or with horses, or occasionally by both, or it may very possibly hereafter be found expedient to establish some kind of steam boats on the canal for the purpose of towing ves sels through it. There are, however, other circumstances con nected with the passage of vessels round the Land's End from the Ports on the south coast of Wales, which must, as far as the Welch traders are concerned, greatly increase the above esti mated saving of time. These circumstances I will here state. The regular traders between Cardiff and London generally make six complete voyages in the year. The passage from one place to the other sometimes occupies thirty days ; it has been done in six; but these are alike unusual occurrences. From Swansea and . Milford the length of passage is somewhat less, —from Newport and Bristol it is rather more. Perhaps 12 days may be taken as about the average length of passage each way between these places and London ; but then the voyage must only be considered as commenced when the vessel has actually sailed from and cleared the last port in the Bristol Channel, for excepting in the summer months, and in very moderate wea ther, vessels cannot depart from the ports in South Wailes to go round the Land's End, unless the wind be in such a direction as will enable them to sail out clear of the coast in one tide ; if they cannot accomplish this, the returning tide which is here exceedingly rapid, would drift them back again, probably to lee ward of the port whence they started. In summer, vessels do occasionally venture to sail with.., a westerly wind, and take the chance of anchoring to save a tide, but in winter never. The most usual place of rendezvous for vessels waiting for a wind to sail from the Bristol Chan nel is Pennarth roads, near to the entrance of Cardiff river, where they may be sheltered under the high land of Pennarth, and whence they can readily proceed on their voyage in case the wind should become favourable for their 'doing so. The detension here is often for a con siderable length of time, and it was only last year that a great number of vessels were actually kept here and at Swansea, and at Milford, for thirteen weeks by the continued prevalence of westerly winds. The delay occasioned to the Welch trade, by this last mentioned cause alone, cannot, I think, on an average of seasons, be reckoned at so little as a week for each voyage— or 6 weeks in the year ; and if the ship canal was cut from Stolford, or some concurrent point of the Bristol Channel, across to the proposed termination at Beer Harbour in the English Chan mei, no such delays would take place, for vessels from all parts of Wales might then cross over to 'its entrance from whatever point the wind blew, and, in 24 hours, be transported to an open part of time English Channel either in winter or Slimmer. O►► the whole then, and taking into account this cause of detention, which, although it is not confined to, yet applies more especially to vessels frequenting the Bristol Gunnel, as well as the other sources of delay before noticed, and re. gar►iing moreover the facilities which the propos. ,ed Canal will yield generally to the communi cations between Ireland and the western parts of England, and all the ports on the English Chan ' nel and German Ocean, I think that I do not overrate its advantages wheu I reckon that on an average of circumstafices, and seasons a fortnight will be saved by all the vessels which shall regularly use it In their outward and home. ward passage, instead of going round the Land's End, or in other words, that wliero six inure voyages are now performed in the year, vessels from the Welsh Ports will then always, and other vessels will generally, be enabled to make twelve. The saving in expence will, of course, bear a certain proportion to a saving of time, and we may arrive at some kind of an approximation to its amount, by attending to the following state ments. In the returns made to Parliament during the last Session on the motion of Sir Tilos(As La BRIDGE, Bart., it appears that five thousand and eighty-eight vessels, whose registered tonnage amounted to 410,673 tons, passed round the Land's End, from one part of the British coast to another, during the year 1823. The average tD sizensa n of these d p robably , vess l therefore, r p efo re er Reg , each of them would carry about 100 tons of cargo. I will suppose each vessel to be navigate d -b y a Master and five other persons, men and boys, ister, was 80. f. and I will take the cost of wear and tear of the vessel, and the expence of wages and niaintea nance of the crew, at only 21. per diem., on an average. This, for the 5,088 vessels will bo 10,1761. per diem, or 142,4641. for a fortnight, which is above calculated to be the probable saving of time, by means of the proposed canal, to all vessels using it instead of going round the Land's End. I will, however, omi ent t the other branches of trade, and f or the pres confine my observations to the above-named number of vessels alone, it being sufficient for my purpose to shew what the saving will be here, and from which its probable amount on the total number of vessels passing the Land's End may be easily inferred. From the above-estimated saving, 1.124641. however must be deducted 75,9.90/. ls., which sum would be paid on the amount of tonnage passing along the canal at ld. per ton per mile for 44 miles. I have here taken the registered tonnages leaving the great saving of 67,1731. 19i. to the shippers of goods . and owners of vessels an.. nua lly, and when to this is added, as there ought to be added a fortnight's interest on the value or cost of the cargoes of these 5, 088 vessels, an d the risk or cost of insurance which will be saved by means of the canal, the amount of saving a s above estimated will be greatly increased. Ilaving, in the preceding estimation, purposely excluded foreign vessels, and British vessels d i t ihsi r la a gvi)eis i i r:nyeg t of considerable soatita: foreign sdtids,eFtr;4aln ports, atd)t eathnae(.s inu m ber and le vruoibhleerri Ireland, I : a v i e bll tityi t oe h usr o ege s lefvieterp, reference el s ec s' ri 0; ll to the Appendix 8., that I have intentionally abstained from noticing the expence of tracking or towing vessels along the Canal, as this will, apprehend, be nearly covered by the sums which are now paid to the several lights on the coasts. Another consideration as to the saving of ex' pence is, that vessels returning round the Land '9 End,after having discharged their cargoes, arenow obliged to take on board a great quantity of ballast to enable them to carry a press of sail, in case the wind should set in strong from the westward, s l4 e c l iat he uti ludy)suos occasionsa'outtul ilio ns of b discharging fe t ineitcs e t: ah ate andb Newport, able sufficiently t l w o a l apes ar e tya : s h er ) to m th n a nrl e i d. en e s je l v g o . and t t i l r u y : . o t h i e f r ports ligilt canal, vesselsand an d d t hu s o opportunity voidng of hedia ia n s g s e h r i s g o thro fa u s g t l o i r t n h li e point of the coast, they would then take on board very little ballast in their return voyage.
