THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Ertractrfrom the Morning Pespers, Aug. 10. [TUE TIMES.) We 'have. received El Iris de Jalisco, and se veral political pamphlets printed at Guadalaxara. Upon a view of these paperi, it appears that the federal system is not rightly, adjusted, and that, either owing to some opposition of interests, or to a want of practical experience in those who govern, its component parts are not in a state of perfect co-operation. How far the divisions which prevail are promoted by persons in the in terest of Iturbide, there is not sufficient informa 41on to enable us to determine. If we might judge from what is publicly printed in the Jour nals before us, that adventurer is det6ted as an ambitious impostor and a tyrant ; but the truth of ,! these representations, perhaps, cannot be entirely relied on. The march of General Bravo, at the head of a considerable force, to Guadalaxeraihas already been noticed. Guadalaxara is the seat of the: Congress of the State of Jalisco or Xalisco, which includes several provinces, and which, in point of extent, population, and wealth, is one of the principal members of the Federa tion. The news of the expedition of General Bravo created great alarm in the Congress of Ja lisco, and a resolution was passed on the 21st of May, to instruct .the representatives of Jalisco in the general Congress of Mexico, to endeavour to obtain from the Supreme Executive Authority an explanation of the object of this extraordinary military measure. In the dispatch addressed to the hliscan representatives, it is observed, that tbere is no account of any enemy on the coast threatening the independence of the State ; that the movement of Gen. 13ravo has no ostensible motive,; that among the reasons which may be put. forward as a colour for such a proceeding, are the reports of its having , been intended to crown iturbitle . M.Guadalaxara, and of the existence of popular COMIIIOIIOIIS ; all of which are . asserted to be fa he, and' to have their origin In certain public papers, which had unjustly accused the state of Xalisco of being 44 ' iturbidiltical." All this the Xaliscon Deputies are required to repre sent to the Supreme Executive Authority, accom panied by the assurance, that 44 the peace of the 44 State has never been disturbed by the Itur cc birl;sts, because, though there' May bet in it 44 some of - that party, they are powerless, " and „never can accomplish their object, since the country abounds in good patriots." The dispatch .was enclosed in a letter from the Gover nor of Xalisco, Luis Quintanur, in which he de cletre,s, that the State being uninformed of the object of General Bravo's invasion, the Govern ment would be under the necessity of repelling force by force. After receiving this dispatch, Senor Canedo, on the 28th of May, submitted to the General Congress the following proposition, Signed by all the Jaliscan. Deputies : " The Deputies of Jalisco have received official information, by which they/learn that the Government intends to invade that State' with t,reops collected for the said purpose. The ConstittukrirAct, in Faculty 8, Article 16, stipulates, chat the Government eannot declare war without the previous consent and , approbation of the General Con gress . Th e Jaliscan De 'lodes appeal to this law, and in virtue thereof pray the Con gress that th e: Government be immediately culled upon to give tpformetioteeoncerning those occurrences so interesting to the Federation ; and that, in consequence or the facto and doeu- Monts which prove the hostile attitude assumed towards Ja ils°, the Cangecas may come to such resolution us shall ap. pear to at calculated to save the c ountry front anarchy, anti our gtate from military oppression. ' After Senor Canedo "grad supported the above proposition by aspeech,,apd read, the dispatches leceived from his. constituents; some of the De puties bithe Greneral . Congress observed, that as the subject under consideration was one of great delicacy, it was proper that any discussion which might Hike place should be secret, or at least that it should be determined in LI secret sitting, Whether or trot. the debate ought to be public. This lattfir aliernUtive was adopted,, and the Con gress proceedeilto deliberate in secret. The re stilt of that deliberation ii not yet known. ENLW 1131143.] 'lt is mentioned iii 'the-Po-it 'Journals that a Commissary of Police seized -the' vihole of the impression of the'Courtier. Franca!: of Thursday, for giving an abstract of,t:ke "will 'of Napoleon poonaparte 'from the English lingers. We can scarcely believe that the fact Is accurately stated. There must surely have' ()eel) somtfthing more hi the Courtier, than th e mere abstract of the Will. We canuGt , perietvolvhy-the .whole'of it should ant be p ' ubli'sh d" fli j lranee. To none can it he more olNlfrive:ttlustt, to:those who are still stupid enougleitbit . Ai:tir pe'rverie enough to utrect ad tniratieienethlCtOCttchttrlatati of the age. In striad of stip-pressing this r r e of nturder,com bined with a' 'paltry and false excuse; this avowal. of impotent malignity, coupled with an ill concealed regret that a gallant enemy escaped the dagger of the' assassin ; this dull, egotis tical, tailor-like list of trilling bequests— instead of endeavouring to .suppress so severe an attack on the fame of Napoleon, we sloduld rather have expected that tbe present Government of France would have distributed it gratis—have proclaimed it irythe highways, and have told the few remaining 13uonaparti,t's to !view the portrait of their here drawn by his own hands, —An article of the 15th ult. from Constantinople, given in the Augsburg Gazette, mention's .the arrival of a naval Officer sent by the Capitan l'acl)a to 1111001111 Ce the conquest, of the island of Ipsara, after an obstinate resistance on the part of the Creeks. A great quantity of artillery and more than 100 vessels are said to bill* been Captured ; and it is alleged that Samos Will . to be the next object of attack. [MOUSING eon.] Tho Constibitionnel contains extracts of pri vate letters from Madrid, which state that the fate formidabl e and fatal. affray between the French acid Slmitli6ll soldiers in that metropolis was n ? t the am e;serted in the Ministerial Journals, of a private limn, but the explosion o f rage, long contentered and nourished by dis cord and fanaticism." the affray itself was mrist serious is proven try the fact that the firing o f th e Spa niartls upon the French lasted half an hour, and that the people took active part with the j tnilikary, reaping, Cha cry of ", D ea th to the French," that cry which gave the signal for insurrection in May 1808, and cost so mang lives in the conflict which ensued in the capitol and througluint'SPain. The situation of the French in that country becomes every day one of greater difficulty and danger, and the letters from which we have taken the foregoing may well ask— " What will be the result of . this state of dis order and anarchy ? It is not difficult to foresee it, but to remedy it is no easy task. If the French army does not fall back on a good posi tion, without waiting for satisfaction from the Spanish Government, which that Government cannot give it, much time will not elapse ere it will be forced to live as in -an enemy's country, and the immediate consequences will be, civil war in the interior of Spain, and the necessity of adopting other means than those which have been used to set Ferdi►iand at liberty.—Hither to the invasio►► nf.Spain has only served to change its masters and to compromise the safety and dignity of France." [tumuli mess.") By a private letter . from Java we learn, that the Dutch Authorities in that Island have sud dently imposed an additional and almost prohi bitory duty on the importation of British goods. Formerly the duty was nominally I'2 per cent, ad valorem ; but as it was the practice, to levy the duty after raising the invoice price by an ad dition of one-third of its amount, the duty was actually about 16 per cent. The Dutch Autho rities have now laid on a duty of 25 per cent., to be levied not upon the invoice price, hut upon an official rate' of valliation,, which is estimated so much above the real value of the goods that the duty in fact extorted` approaches nearly to 50 per cent. The 'result is, that. ships, which had , left this country on the faith of the former regu• lation, have been obliged to sail for. Bencoolen; and at a great loss trans-ship their freight for Calcutta or some other port, where they.liope to find a market. By the treaty concluded, with the Netherlands in March last, it was stipu lated that the British and Dutch Governments should reciprocally permit their subjects to trade with the colonies of either power, and that only an additionalduty, not exceeding 6 per cent . , should he imposed on go' ls imported in vessels not belonging to the nation possessing the colony. Falk, the Mitch Minister, who concluded. the treaty on the part of his Government, is, we understand, attempting to justify the authorities of Java, by construing the: text' of that docu-H ment in a way suitable to that object, but the• sense of the passage is- obviously' very diffet'ent. from the interpretation which.he wishes to make it appear to convey. On Friday a deptitatiini of the Gentlemen connected with the Indian trade waited on Mr. Cuniting,'lO'complain of this,grievance ; and we have no doubt that re dress will speedily be obtained. [MORNING HERALD.] We are told by an inspired writer, that " hope deferred 'maketh the heart tack." This sickness must have fallen with more than common force, we should think, upon the holders of Spanish Bonds; who seen like persons sentenced and left for execution, but whose fate has been delayed by successive respites. W,e doubt wbether a re prieve will reach them ; and whether they will not at last be doomed to be the victims of a too credulous confidence in the once chivalrous idea of Spanish honour. We have too often expressed our opinion of the folly of persons who . have Wen bitten by the mania of foreign loans, to be, suspect, ed of any great sympathy towards the holders of those securities, the generality of whom' bought them as they would Lottery tickets, in. the ex... , pectation of their beeoming prizes, and, there. fore, if they turn out blanks, as flit' the - specu. Wino goes, they have no great reason lo cam. of the matt er — v i z. as plain. But Mere is a view 'it ,afreCts national faith and integrity-4hich we cannot pass , over with the same indifference.— Nations should at least be honest. I't is in vain to look for lodividual integrity, %Theft,. the' aggre gate of 'a country, represented by the Govern ment, do that which would either subject indivi duals to the perils of the law, or at all events exclude them from future intercourse with their equals in society. We had always'imagined that the Spanish Governinent would have .seen and felt the subject in this light, as a point of honour; mn d w e cannot help thinking that the holy Alliance would give the appearance, at least, of something mote of real sanctity to theirproceed. ings, if they had made the'recognition of debts contracted, in a great degree, for his own pet soma support, a condition of their hallowed countenance of Ferdinand. We sometimes hear in private life of persous making a common , purse to save their family or profession from some great scandal ; and we think that' had their Holinesses (including, of course,. the Pope him. self) done this, they would 'have stood a better, chance of ingratiating th emse l ves with the Euro. peon community. As it is, we suspect that the ; holders of these Bonds will have to thank Fer dinand's necessities, not his will, for an assent, should it ever arrive; for he seems as averse to, recognise the debts contr ac t e d by the Cartes, as if both the borrowers rind the lenders were he. reties, with whom no faith was to be kept. Our Government, we think, are wise in having ab., stained from any interference in the matter. It la by no mean' nn international concern ; but which, by the way, us far as the Spanish Govern. ment is concerned, only makes the matter worse. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The information received by Government by the last special messenger from Constantinople, is reported to have been extremely satisfactory ; for it represents the decline of that once great but wicked empire to be more rapid than the most sanguine wishes of the friends to the civili zation of that part of the globe could have anti cipated. 'the success of the cause of Chris• tianity in Greece, on which there exists but one feeling throughout his Britannic Majesty's domi nions, is represented by these udvices to be certain, for the barbaric Ottoman Government had been unable to fit out any thing worth the mune of offensive hostility to the independ ence of their former Christian slaves. Imperial edicts had been issued to the faithful, a year ago, to prepare an expedition of eight thou sand Musselmen, to maintain the authority of the Crescent over the Christian Cross of Greece; but such has been the want of power, and the want of authority, that although WO piastres per man had been offered, only 3,000 men could be mustered last March for the subjection of thb re bellious subjects of this iniquitous Government. These men were, however, finally embarked at Tophana, but a south-wester afterwards prevailed for a month, and no power in the empire was able to induce them to proceed . on their ultimate des tination,so long as it lasted. The fleet at last,how ever,reached the Dardanelles,where another south wester was again experienced by them, and fully convinced the fatalists that the Prophet did not ap prove of the war. This adverse circumstance conti nued for another month, at the expiration of which time the soldiers, if they merit the name, had ex pended all their money, and refused to proceed any further. Nine hundred of them abandoned the ships by force, and went over into Asia, and then the fleet sailed on its destination, and to the beginning of July had literally performed no thing against the Greeks. ' As for the Pacha of Egypt, it was understood at Constantinople that he would neither join himself in the expedition, nor permit any of his people to do so. He is too able a politician to perpetrate an act so 'suicidal, fur he knows too well what fate awaits him, if the Sultan should triumph over the Christian population of his Empire. Advices have also been received from Smyrna, dated on the 22d of June, which are four- days later than the previous accounts. They, state that the British • Consul at Alexandria had pub. lished .the Manifesto 'of the Greek Govern . meat,: denouncing all neutral vessels, which should lend themselves to the Turkish • Go vernment, for the purpose of invading Greece, and the 'consequence had been, that all British flags 'had refused to assist in any way in the threatened' invasion. This resolution was, no doubt, highly, agreeable-to•his Highness the , Pacha l for it afford ed him a nother excuse for not proceeding with a force to Greece, to attack the Christians, for to do so he never promised, but to mediate be twixt them and their former tyrants, and to tiring about, if possible, a reconciliation. The 'Consuls of Abe other European Powers waited for instructions from the Ambassadors at Con. stantinople, by which they might regulate their conduct respecting the Greek Manifesto, in is- . :suing , Which, and in acting on it, this rising,. :people ,possesses the authority of all civilized 4tiqns. Nothing certainly call, be more favour , a hie than these accounts received from the ca. THAI . of thit Barbarians, for they place beyond all doubt that another civilized Power will soon spring up in Europe, and add stability to that system of Government which is founded on the progress of knowledge, and on the increase of prosperity amongst mankind. CORDWAINER'S COMPANY, NEWCASTLE. 'Flit' Incorporated-Company of Cord wainers of this town having, at their • heitcl.meeting.day, voted pieces of vitae to 14.1r.GT.0. Bit asr r. r. arid Mr. Joni SCOTT, their late stewards, in testimony of the sense entertained by the Com. puny of their services, *special general meeting of Company was held at their Hull, na Monday evening; to make the pre sentation to the worthy Gentlemen..—on which occasion • Air. JAarEa I. I. Alt n the present steward, in a ne a t a d. dress, declared th e obj ect of meeting, and stated, for the in. formation of the many individuals who had recently joined the Company, that the property or the body had been in a state of considerable difficulty and danger, but that by the persevering exertions of Mr. Brutnell, and his associates, a settlement had been etfected, which had rendered that secure which had for merly been doubtful. The plate upon the table was about to be presented as a token of the sense the Company entertained of the merit of the Gentlemen for whom it was designed, and to .this memorial he might add his own testimony, that whenever the ening of the Company had required the services of Mr. firumell and 'Mr. Scott, their utmost exertions had never been wanting. The steward then called upon the secretary to read the insriptions on the plate—The inscriptions we re similar— that on the piece designed for Mr. Brumell was as follows " Presented by the Incorporated Company of Cordwainers, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, to Mr. George Bunnell, as a token of the able, upright, and independent manner in which, for five' successive years, he discharged the office of Warden of the Com pany, and, of their .gratitude to hini for his u nw e a r i e d and suc cessful exertions' in securing to them their property, and direct ing the application of their 1?tind5.....21.5t June, 1824."' Mr. Median], then addressing Mr. Brumell, said, that as steward he had the honour to present him with an elegant piece of „plate, in token of the opinion his brethren entertained of his services as one of. their trustees, and for five years their ste ward. Be had the sinerest pleasure in performing this service, and wisheti'Mr. lirumell long to possess this pledge of their esteem. Mr.Meillard 'then addressed . Mr. Scott, and after compll; menting him on the very able and upright manner in . whiCh he had sustained the office of steward of the company, and attend ed to their every interest, expressed his wish that the plate he how presented to him might long remain in his family, and stimulate his descendants to follow the footsteps of their worthy relation: • 111,x. Prumol returned thanks, and desired to acknowledge the satisfaction he felt at meeting with so marked an expres sion of the approbation of the company : he said his feelings were. so strongly excited, that he could only declare, that he trusted he should ever continue to watch the interests of the company, and to.discharge to the best otitis abilities what ever duty might devolve upon him. Whenever any service required his attention, he hoped always to he found at his post; and it was-hia earnest desire that there never might be wanting any of his family to whom the company might not look with confidence, as having similar feelings towards them with himself. 4 - - Mr. Scott, in returning thantcs, said, it had ever been hi s ear . nest desire to perform to the best of• his power the business of the,company, and ho hoped that their • very elegant present would atibrd a stimulus to bis children to serve the company in ,whatever way they could.

At 20 minutes to four o'clock, the signal gun was fired, and the following men took their stations to row the first heat, viz. : John' Robins,. green; John Wolfinger, red ; and Benjamin Bird, yellow. This was a very well-contested heat between green and red, who were declared the winners. The second heat was equally well contested, and declared in favour of Mr. Henry, .orange, and James,Thomas, pink George Alartin, light blue, having declined rowing the distance. Betting ran now very high, and shortly before seven o'clock the men, green, red, orange, and pink, were ordered off to row the last heat.. This was a most arduous contest, and decided in favour Of Orange. Green came in second, and pink third. Green was entitled to 4/., Pink to Si. and Red to 11.—The two men who did not row in the grand heat reeeived 11. each. WINDERMERE REGATTA. - - On Thursday week, the charming exhibition of the Queen of the Lakes, decorated with the pomp and pageantry of its living ornaments, was unveiled to a host of enraptured specta. tors. The beautiful situation of Low Wood Inn was the ap pointed station. The whole of the proceedings of the day were under the direction of I'rofessor Wilson, of 'Edinburgh. The grandeur of the mountain scenery, the splendour of the fiats waving in the breeze, the firing of cannon, the melody of muse, and the bla ze o f b eauty and fashion, all conired to render th e Regatta mo s t enc h ant i n g to the senses: The grand aquiltie procession of the barges, and numerous row-boats of the lake, was the most beautiful sight ever witnessed on Windermere. The other amusements of running, leaping, and wrestling, were admirably conducted. The yoting Duke of Ruccleuch was of Colonel 'Bolton's party in this exhibition, as was also Air. Wordsworth, the poet.--(Carlisle Journal.) Yesterday the LORD MAYOR and Corporation Officers proceeded in the City barge up the Thames, for the purpose of holding a Court of Conservancy, and inspecting th e state of the embankments upon the River. The City barge on this occasion having undergone a repair, made a gay and stately appearance. .A complete set of new civic flags and emblems were displayed, and - the elegant company on board added much to the splendour of the exhibition. On the arriv a l o f the barge above Westminster-bridge ' the LORD MAYOR wa s sa l ute d b y a discharge of 2Q guns , fired from N.g.t.swr's (the. Water RIM!) Causeway.
