LONDON JOURNAI,S., [D,III,Y EXTRACTS.) FROM THE MORNING PAPERS. [Morning Chronicle.] Letters were yesterday received from Lima,- dated:2.7th March. • li'hey were conveyed across the isthmus of Panama, and owing ,to distance t*nd the uncertainty of navigation in the lower.part of the Pacific, the above date may be deemed very recent. The capture of Valdivia by Lord,. I,;pchratte was known in the capital of Peru on• the 16th of the same month, and the loss had been ,regretted by those emigrants only from the south .of Chili, having property in that quarter, the tenure of so ,distauf a ,point having hitherto been extremely expensive to the Viceregal -Govern :ment.—Accounts had also been, received there, that the O'Higgins, the Chili Admiral's flag-ship, had -struck`on the QuiriCraina, in Talcaguano bay, by which accident she had been so much injured, .as- to make from 50 to 60 inches of water per hour. With the greatest difficulty she had been got up to Valdivia, subsequently to the capture, and •shipwrights had been ordered from Valpa raiso to endeavour to repair her, which was deemed alinost impracticable, owing to the want of convenience, as well as the general state of the . ship. The greatest tranquillity and confidence 'prevailed in the whole of the Viceroyalty. Ac ' counts from the Royalist army in Upper Peru had been received, stating, that the war was at a stand in that quarter, the troops opposed to them being chiefly withdrawn, or in a state of complete - insubordination. They had been informed at Lima of .the progress of the Montoneras. and the other Parties from the interior against - Buenos Ayres; but they had not yet learnt the successive revolu -tionS which had taken place there. No appre hensions whatever were, entertained respecting the threatened attacks from Chili, nor had the Viceroy deemed it necessary to change the posi tion of the disposable force he now has in the interior. The three frigates, 'La Preuba, Esme • ' , Ada, and Venganza, had joined at Callao, and • had been sent on secret service to windward. • We learn that the negociation which we an nounced to be pending between this country and Holland for some correction of the error commit , ted in the Treaty. of. 1814, as 'to the Indian Islands, is broken off, or at least suspeneldd with out being brought to any amicable termination. It is, however, to be renewed on the receipt of dispatches from India, which are not expected before October next. The Dutch Commissioner • would not yield a single point, though the King, of tlie 'Netherlands owes every thing he posses ses• to •the gratuitous exertions of this country, and by which exertions we have involved our selves in our present financial difficulties.—(lbid.) .It is now known that the Austrian Govern sment have demanded from this country pecuniary aid, to . enable them to fit out and expedite their Army against the NeapolitanS Will it be be lieved, that such a demand can be listened to With complacency ? We' are sure that every considerate Englishman would revolt at the idea of-again involving the country in a crusade of tyranny against freedom. If there is any conso lation in the poverty that our former passion, in this respect, has brOught upon us, it must arise. from the certainty that it secures us. from a re turn of the folly.—(/bid.) O❑ Tuesday afternoon a communication was tnadb from the Secretary of State's Office to the Police Magistrates, requesting that none of them fliould be absent from town on the 17th instant. This is as it should be, for it appears as if Go vernment wished to place its dependence for the maintenance of the.public peace in the Civil force of the country. Strange as it may appear, the _persons most nearly connected with Office affect to believe that the,prosecution of the Bill of Pains and Penalties is even yet to be avoided..—(/bid.) [Morning Hcrald,] TILE QUEEN.-A. foreign Gentleman, decorated with the insignia of several orders, arrived at the Queen's late residence in Portman-street, on Tuesday morning. Information of his arrival was sent off to her Majesty instantly, when one of her Majesty's carriages with the servants in the Royal livery, came to town directly, and conveyed him to Brandenburgh House. Mr. Denman had also a long interview with her Ma jesty.on the same day. Her. Majesty has not been out.since the death of her Royal Highness the Duchess of York ; the gates of the mansion are kept closed, and no person is admitted ex cept her Majesty's legal advisers, or except those upon indispensable business. Her Majesty has slept at Brandenburgh House since Friday last. [The, Times.] We were justified in announcing yesterday, that communications, supposed to be of high im portance, have been recently carried on between their Majesties. May the result, we pray, be propitious ! The letter from her Majesty, referred to in yesterday's journal, was delivered to the King at Windsor -cottage early on Tuesday morn ing. His Majesty's messenger arrived with an answer at Brandenburgh House about 4 o'clock of the same afternoon. The Queen's Messenger -wa immediately • dispatched to Lord Liverpool, and returned to Brandenburgh House from his Lordship at 10 o'clock at night. On the subject or tendency of this epistolary intercourse we shall not now propose any conjectu res t o our rea d er s : the fruits of it must soon be ascertained. Ad vices from the Coast of Barbary, of the 10th of July, contained in letters from Gibraltar of the 13th of the same month, state, that an insur rection of a formidable nature had taken place in the army of the Emperor of Morocco. A re giment of the guards to the Emperor being or dered to escort him from Rebalt, one of his sum mer residences, to Morocco, refused compliance, and, disregarding all attempts to restrain them, suddenly, marched off towards Fez which they , 1 CO V V • C. 4 .CO Cn 01 MC, - .9 .

As to cheeses, if we estimate the French cheeses in number, at 20Ibs. each, it will only , give 5,83-1,5401b5., or one-fifth of London con sumption. If we suppose fish to be the same price in Lon don and in Paris, say 3d. per lb. on an average, then the value in London will be (calculating the London tonnage by weight) 3,360,0001., whilst that of Paris is only the same number of francs ; but I suspect the Parisian calculation is much under-rated. In poultry Paris exceeds us much, as our ex penditure, turned into francs, would only be 1,440,000. If we allow butter in Paris to be I fr. per lb., then our consumption is more than double. In wines, &c. I make no attempt at compara tive calculation, having no tabular estimate by me ; but the difference in lunch cows is most extraordinary. QUESITOIt. AERONAUTICS.—A person named Robertson, who has resided for two years in Portugal, went up in , a balloon from the Prado of Oporto, in ho nour of the accession of the King of Portugal. This had all the effect of a new discovery; inns much as an aeronautic exhibition had never been at tempted in that city before. He took the direction of the sea, from which Oporto is but a quarter of a league distant, and in half an hour he landed safely at Ferriero, about six leagues from Opor to. This experiment was the more remarkable by the courage which Mr. Robertson's niece dis played, who obtained leave to go up in a balloon, attached by a cord to the principal one. When she had "risen to a certain height she attempted to cut the cord with a knife, which she had con ' cealed in her handkerchief.. When Mr. Robertson perceived that she wanted to release her balloon, he quickly seized the attaching cord, and drew the balloon, in which she was, up into his own. 'Twenty-five thousand .persons were assembled in the Prado to witness this experiment. STATE PAPEIt, COPY OF A MEMORIAL A.Miritsstri TO ALL ,TIIE MINISTERS Or RITSiIA, ON THE SUBJECT OE THE AFFAIRS OF SPAIN. The Chevalier DE ZEA, BERMUDEZ has pre- sented - to thejmperial Cabinet the annexed note, relatiire to_the . eventS,whiCh have just taken place in the Peninsula qvid-of -Melt we ..wot,e,..?•lrekaA 7 • - A informed by the dispatches that were forwarded to us by our agents at foreign Courts. M. de Zea, in thii document, confines himself to informing us, that the Constitution promulgated by the Cortes in the year 1812 has been accepted by the King, and expresses a de 'ire to know how the Emperor has viewed this change of the Government. i 1 the distance which separates us from Spain and from the States which are best enabled to weigh maturely the nature 4.f the disasters with which she is menaced be con sidered, it will be readily acknowledged that the position of the Imperial Ministry, with regard to the Representative of the Spanish Nation, was difficult and delicate. The revolution of the Peuinsula fixes the attention of the two hemispheres; the interests which it is about to decide are the interests of the Universe ; and if ever the Emperor wished that the opinions of his Allies might conduce to regu late his neat, it certainly was at the moment when the note Of the Chevalier de Zea imposed upon his Imperial Majesty time obligation of pronouncing upon an event which involves, perhaps, the future destinies of all civilized Italians. This obligation, however, existed.; for, in these days, every sub ject of doubt becomes an instrument of malevolence. Jhe atecessity of replying tq M. de Zea was, therefore, evident; but, in this important conjuncture, it appeared na tural, that previous to pronouncing an opinion, the Empe ror should consider the object which the Allied Powers pro posed to themselves in their relations with Spain ; that he should consult the views which they 'had expressed to that same Power; and that be should take as a guide fur his own, the principles of European policy. This is what his Imperial Majesty was bound to do ; this is what he has done. Since the year 1812, more titan one diplomatic document at tests the generous solicittatle . which the several Courts of Eu rope have constantly manifested iu behalf of Spain.l hey ap plauded the noble perseverance withwhich her intrepielpeople resistee a foreign yoke. They rendered homage to their wisdom when they tallied round a constitutional Throne the dearest interests Of their country—the interests of her independence. Finally, front the period when Providence restored Ferdi nand VII. to his people, they never failed to acknowledge that solid institutions could alone secure on its basis the an cient Spanish Monarchy. The Allied Soveseigns did more. In the course of long conferences, relative to the differences with Rio de la Plata, and to the pacification of the Colonies, they let it be suffi ciently- understood, that these institutions would cease to be a means of peace and happiness, if, instead of being granted by kindness as a voluntary concession, they should be adopted by weattness as a last resource of salvation. Let us investigate, on the other hand, the great transactions which established the European Alliance. What is the object of the engagements that were renewed on the (3d) 13th of November, 1818' The. Allied Monarchs had just then obliterated the last traces of the Revolution in trance ; hut that Revolution seemed ready to produce new calamities. The obliaa.tiou of the mouarais was, therefore, anal their design was, to prevent the sante storm bursting from the saute horizon a third time to desolate Europe. Neveethelese r as if the alarws,which were then excited by the state of France, awl which it still excites, were not suffl cient—as if governments and nations entertained but slight doubts with respect to its future condition—it was necessary that the genius of evil should select a new theatre, and that Spain, inilter turn, should be offered up as a fearful sacrifice. Revolution has therefore changed its ground, but the duties of Monarchs cannot have changed their nature, and the power of the insurrection is neither less formidable, our less danger ous than it would have been in France In unison, therefore, with his allies, his Majesty cannot but desire to see granted to the Peninsula, as to its trans-marine provinces, a government which he considers as the only one that can yet justify some hope in this age of calamities. But in virtue of his engagements of the (3d) 15th of November, Isis, his Majesty is bound to mark with the most forcible re probation, the revolutionary measures set in action to give new institutions to Spain. Such is the twofold idea which is found developed in the annexed answer which the Cabinet of Russia has made to the Chevalier de Zea, by order of his Imperial Majesty.* The Emperor dues not doubt that his august allies will appt ore its contents, and perhaps they hare already addressed similar sentiments to the Court of Madrid. The same wishes may, in fact, have inspired the same language; avid convinced, like his Majesty, that crime must always yield pernicious fruit, they have, doubtless, deplored as he !taros; the outrage which has recently tarnished the annals of Spain. We repeat it, this outrage is deplorable. It is deplorable for the Peninsula—his deplorable for Europe ; and the Spanish nation now owes the example of an expiatory deed to the people of the two hemispheres. Till this be dune, t he unhappy object of their disquietude can only make them fear the contagionuf her calamities. Nevertheless, amidst all these elements of disaster, and when so many mo tives combine to afflict the real friends of the welfare of na tions, may a better future still be looked for! Is there any wise and redeemiug measure whose effect may be to recon cile Spain with herself, as well as with the other Powers of Europe ?- We dare not affirm it : for experience has taught us to con. skier almost always as an illusion, the hope'of a happy event. But, if we might trust the calculations which personal interest would seem to indicate; if it were permitted to presume that the Cortes would consult the interest of their own preserva tion, it Might be believed that they would hasten to extirpate, by a solemn measure, all that is culpable in the circumstances which accompanied the change of the administration in Spain. The interests of the Cortes are here identified with the in terests of Europe. The misled soldiery who protected, may to-morrow assail them : and their first duty towards their Monarch, towards their country, and themselves, seems to be, to prove that they will never consent to legalize insurrec tion. These are hopes which would not appear to be without some foundation. The Emperor, however, is far from che risliieg them; and if he admitted the possibility of a result so useful, be would make it depend upon the unanimity which might manifest itself in the opinion of the principal Powers of Europe, as to the act by which the representatives of the Spa nish people ought to signalize the opening of their delibera tions. This unanimity, always so powerful when it takes the character of an irrevocable deed, will perhaps carry con viction to the ntilide of the int.st eminent members of his Catholic Majesty ; and the Allied Courts would seem to have an easy means of impressing upon their language such an imposing uniformity. Their Ministers in France have hitherto treated, in - their name, with a Plenipotentiary of the Court of Madrid. Can they not now present to hint, in common, observations, the summary of which follows, and which would recal to this Spa nish Government site conduct, as well as the political princi ples of the Allied Monarchs ? The Monarchs," would say the five Ministers, " have 'lever ceased to entertain wishes for the prosperity of Spans.— Th e y will alwa y s entertain them. They have desired, that in Europe, as in America, institutions conformable to the pro gress of civilization, and to the wants of the age, might pro cure to all Spaniards long years of peace and happiness.— They desire the same at this moment. They have wished that a ll these institutions should become a real blessing, by the legal manner in which they should be introduced. They now wish t he same. "'Phis last consideration will convey to the Ministers of his Catholic Majesty with what sentitnent-s of affliction and - grief they have learned the events of.the Bth of March, and those. which preceded it. According to their opinion, the salvation of Spain, as"well as the welfare of Europe. will require that this crime should be disavowed, this stain effaced, this bad example exterminated. Thu honour of such a reparation ap pears to depend upon the Cortes. Let them deplore, and for cibly reprobate, the means employed to establish a new mode of Government in their Country ; and in consolidating an ad ministration wisely constitutional, let them adopt the most ri gorous laws against sedition and revolt. " Then, and only then, the Allied Cabinets will be able to maintain friendly and amicable relations with Spain." These observations, urged in common by the Representa tives of the five Courts, would, from thenceforth, demonstrate to the Spanish Ministry the conduct which the Allied Govern ments would observe in case the consequences of the Bth of March should perpetuate in Spain trouble and anarchy. If these salutary counsels be listened to; if the Cortes offer to their King, in the name of the nation, a pledge of obedience; if they succeed in establishing, upon durable bases, the tran quillity of Spain, and the peace of Southern America, the Revolution will have been defeated at the very moment when it thought to obtain a triumph. If, on the contrary, alarms, perhaps too reasonable, rea- I ized, at least th e five Courts will have discharged a sacred duty; at leasta new occurrence will have develop ed the *This refers to the " Note of the Imperial Russian Minis try to the resitleat Spanish Minister o " whic/s 3 Pl'earcd on the 31st ult. indicated the 'object, and Yed the s -e o pt 01 it° European alliance.
