IHE LONDON JOURNALS. DA I IX Extracts from the Morning Papers, Jan. [BRITISH PRESS.] Nlonday's Paris Papers reached our office last night : they continue to give, even under their esisting controul, a most melancholy account of distracted Spain; that wretched country,through ent her provinces, is now a prey to the most dreadful anarchy. Plunder and assassinations sere everywhere prevalent, and still increasing. N . si - eg,ninary contests between the two parties, the .lea'aatiss and followers of the Constitution, were daily taking place. At St. Jago a deadly fray of this description had just occurred ; one hull -vidual was killed on the spot, and several wounded. The prisons were everywhere crowd ed with victims, and neither amnesty nor orders of any sort had been issued for their release.—' Letters from Corunna, dated the Ist of January, sta:e the arrival of the royalist Contreras, the new Captain-General of Gallicia, in that town. The prosecutions against the - Con stitutionalists were inveterately continued there. —Several had been arrested recently, and confined au secret, charged with being concerned In the noyade of sixty one Royalists, while Vigo was Governor. Madrid, at the last accounts, was a gloomy scene of distrust and terror ; not i night passed without new murders. The .roved of churchmen, archbishops and bishops, collected in that capital, had been peremptorily •ordered to their dioceses, and were gradually quitting for that purpose. They mere looked upon as the most determined opponents of any liberal measures, and their departure was hailed, in consequence, as the herald of the amnesty 30 long expected, and of other conciliatory measures, calculated to restore something like tranquil lity in Spain. A plan is stated to have been discovered, framed by these Prelates, and the General of the Cordeliers. Almeida, who was at its head, to overturn Irujo's Ministry, and effect an important change in the Government, by calling Ferdinand's brother, Don Carlos, to ,t) - ie Throne. The statement rests, however, on no good authority, and is, probably, only one of the many rumours of the Spanish capital or Ba yonne. Telaru, the French Ambassador, is said to have received important dispatches by a cou rier extraordinary from his Court, and to have irnthediately addressed to the Madrid Cabinet a pressing note, urging the promulgation of the amnesty, and the immediate execution of the other measures promised several months since. It-was subsequent to this note the order was given to the Spanish prelates and priests to quit Madrid. Berea, Colonel of a Royalist regi- Ment, had also been ordered to leave that ca is:tel- with his soldiers, having declared that he erou4l not answer for the fidelity of his fol lowers if the amnesty was promulgated. The Madrid populace was daily becoming more hostile to the French garrison, and several of the latter had been assassinated in the streets. —Fresh troops were ordered up in support, and the Spanish soldiers were all sent away. [MOP.NING POST.] French Papers to the 20th inst., and the Eloile of Tuesday, reached us last night by express. 'Y heir contents are not important. A Conven tion has been concluded by the Governments of France and Spain, to indemnify and reimburse their .respective subjects for the losses which they suffered by captures at sea during the late war. An inquiry had been previously instituted to as. certain the amount, and as it was found to be nearly equal, it was agreed that the two Ge vernirents should be considered acquitted to wards each other, and should take upon them selves the reimbursement of their own subjects. The Journal des Debuts regards this arrange ment as a masterpiece of policy ; and not satisfied with making it the subject of the following panegyric on the late appointment of a Superior Council of Commerce, seriously declares that it must decide the fate of the approaching elections and the question of a Septennial Chamber " The Opposition Journals," it exclaims, " do all they can to rob the Government of the merit of having issued the fine Ordinance which esta blished a Superior Council,of Commerce. What will they say- when they read this day in the Moniteur the Convention concluded between France and Spain relatively to the captures made at sea in the course of 1823 ? how does it' happen that a Government which is repre sented as treating commercial interests with so much.. disdain, should- have paid so much at tention to them, that its first treaty with libe rated Spain should 'be one securing the French commercial property captured by Spanish priva teers during the last six months ? Not only the disasters which we were told would overwhelm our merchant navy during our contest with Spain, have not occurred, but the few accidents which had taken place have, by the present arrange ment; been retniclied. A Government that gives such answers to the declamations of malevolence .--that proceeds with a firm and tranquil step towards , the object which it has in view—. that abstains from no measure which it deems necessary, notwithstanding the calum nies of enemies and the occasional misunder standings of its friends—such a Government must necessarily obtain confidence and es teem. This confidence and esteem in fact aug ment every day. The battle of . the , elections, and the question of a Septennial Chamber, may be considered as already gained on the part of: the- 'Monarchy. And after_ following with frankness the Constitutional System, 7feeling no dread of the liberty of the press, but on the contrary committing to the tribunal of pub lic opinion those questions which most deeply interest • the State, it is impossible but that public opinion should not ultimately do justice to those who are entitled to it. The Ministers for the first time will mount the tribune without fear; both the Peers and'the Deputies will know to what'subject their attention is tool-be called : opinions, will be formed beforehand on the merits sk f :tbe: project of law, to be discussed ;, the de bates- will be shortened,- and we can. prophecy that the question of Septenniality wilt have as great a majority of reasons as of votes in its fa- our." [MORNINGRONICLE.] Our Parisian Corresp Wl dent expresses himself in strong terms of indignation against the Swiss people, 4 ' who, from the mountains of Tell' and the land of freedom, scatter chains all over Eu rope, and in their suicidal infatuation em bark in that liberticide war of which they cannot be the instruments without ultimately becoming the victims." There can be but one opinion as to the infamy of the practice which our Correspondent reprobates, and the wish of all friends of national independence must be, that mercenaries of this description, who lend themselves to the purposes of every Tyrant who can afford to pay them, should receive from the nations which they insult their merited re ward. But our correspondent makes it an addi tional charge against the Swiss, that " from the mountains of Tell and the land of freedom," they should scatter chains all over Europe. Here something may be said in behalf of the Swiss. — The Cantons which engage in this traffic are, it is true, democratic ; but so are the Indian tribes of America—all democratic— fiercely democratic. They are dcmocratic, and must continue so, because the poverty to which their situation condemns them prevents all accumulation of property. The only ine quality among them is that resulting from su periority in the use of the fist or the club, in their general assemblies. Switzerland consists of Catholic States of this pure democratic descrip tion, and Protestant aristocratic or mixed States, ill confederated together for certain general ob- jects. The Protestant States contain the rich and cultivated country ; the Catholic States, that lend their troops to Spain, Naples, &c. are, per haps, the most brutally ignoraut and prejudiced of any in Europe. There the pilgrimages of the middle ages, &c. subsist in full vigour. A single ray of mental light has never penetrated the clouds of ignorance which perpetually hang over these mountains. The natives descend from them impelled by the natural instinct which drives the hungry fox from his den, and it is not very na tural that they should have any scruples with re spect to the invasion of rights or privileges of which they cannot even form a conception. [TUB TIMES.] Many of the Merchants and Members of Lloyd's appear to be highly amused by the Quixotic generosity of the French Government, in offering to make good the losses incurred by the capture of ships during the late war with Spain. There are various causes which tend to give a colouring of ridicule to the whole pro ceeding. First, as we hinted yesterday, be . cause an indemnity of this nature was the last thingin the contemplation of the Under writers, who, so far from being sufferers by th e war, reaped enor mous. profits by it, the incr ea sed rate of insurance having been more than adequate to the increased risk, sinc e every obstacle, as they w e ll knew, was thrown in the way of Spanish privateering, even by the British Government. Of the rich East In diamen then on the voyage home, which were all insured at a premium of from 9 to 30 per cent., P . not one, we believe, fell into the power of the Spaniards, and some of the principal made, in consequence, the greatest profit known since the conclusion of the underwriters general war. Se condly, very few of them, we believe, have much confidence in the forthcoming bounty of the iFrench Government, and would willingly sell their future prospects at one third of the a mount, paid down immediately. But the last point, and the most amusing of all, is the discovery that this act of liberality, should it hereafter take place, will be realized at no cost whate ver , s i nce the pro ceeds of the value cargo of the Veloz Mariana alone, capture d by the Jean Bart, under circum stances which must be fresh in tile recollection of our mercantile readers, far exceed the amount (8,000,000 fraucs) of the destined indemnity. The Veloz Mariana had on board 2,000,000 of dollars in specie, besides cochineal and other costly articles of production ; and the results of this prize will, without doubt, becom e the pro perty of the French Government. It is true that a separate indemnity by Spain to her own sub jects is talked of, but what the fruits of that will he, a very slight knowledge of the state of Spa nish finances will be sufficient to answer. A prospectus-of a Greek loan has been in cir culation for some days. We suppose the in terest upon it will be paid by the beautiful new coin just stamped in Paris, of which w e gave an account yesterday. This prospectus is probably all the memorial that will exist hereafter of the contemplated loan. Indeed, it does not clearly ap pear that the Greeks themselves know that they are borrowing money, or attempting to borrow money, in England ; and that they are mortgaging their revenues, or that others are mortgaging their revenues for them. No; as much of our charity as possible let these suffering patriots receive ! But as to loans, it is an insult to common understand ing even to use the term in reference to th e Greeks. We should wish also to see the whole of British disposable capital employed in the le gitimate pursuits of commerce, by which hands are employed, and from which revenue accrues ; and not hazarded upon speculations of usurious interest, which, even when successful, impart no life and activity to the operative classes.—(lbid.) [NEW TIMES.] Consols were yesterday very steady at 88-i 89, at which prices sales to a very considerable amount were effected. Spanish remained nearly stationary. 'The Greek Association Loan seems likely to follow its worthy predecessor, the Loan .to the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem. In deed we apprehend that the Knights were a rather more definite Body than the Association, who seem to have neither " a local habitation'' nor" a name." The Mexican Loan is somewhat in the same predicament, if we can trust to the statements of the Morning Chronicle, which informed us on Tuesday, that " no permanent form of Government had been definitively settled and agreed upon (in Mexico) up to the middle of August." This is certainly a very material consideration for those who are tempted to lend money to Mexican Government ! And we fully agree with our cotemporary, that these facts " ought to be known to the British Public, be cause extensive plans are forming here to be, carried into effect in the Mexican Provinces, which may hereafter be materially affected by the general law of the land, or the municipal re gulations of the states." So says The Chronicle: and we fully accede to the justice of the obser vation. [MORNING lIERALD.] It is announced that Hunt's life has been spar ed in consideration of the confession which he made to the Hertford Magistrates. His sentence of death is commuted for transportation for life. It was generally and reasonably expected that such would be the determination in the proper quarter, without any reference to his immediate connection with, or behaviour in, the com mission of the crime. 'Whatever might have been his criminality, it was from him that the leading discovery was made—that of the body of the decease, without which there could have been no prosecution. It is probable, even from the evidence, that without the confession of the accomplice neither search nor accident would have led to the discovery from the nature of the place of concealment. He had therefore esta blished a claim, if not a right, to have his life spared. With reference to the general preven tion and discovery of crime, the commutation of his sentence was equally expedient. Had sen tence of death been executed upon him, accom plices would be deterred from making confession upon an almost hopeless hazard. It is said that further restiations have been made by Hunt since his certrviction. We know not whether they are of a nature to cause criminal proceed ings to be issued against any individuals. But if it were not so, his communications may be made conducive to the repression of crime. The prac tices which led to the murder have been brought forward in too glaring a light to have escaped any body's observation. The vice of gambling was the source, and even the immediate incentive. Why is it that in London, where there is certainly less gambling than in other capitals of much smaller population, this practice should give rise to so much more of depraved and atrocious crime The reason, as it strikes us, is, that from the surreptitious mode, if it may be so termed, in which gaming takes place in Londou, there is much more of unfairness and secret deception. The law of the land repudiates gaming, but, at the same time, almost tolerates it. The adepts are, in consequence, under no restraint in their practice, and incur no greater penal responsibility by cheating and plundering, instead of trusting to the calculations of strict chance. It would seem, therefore, that places of resort for gain i ng should either be left open to ate eye of t h e Public, and the vigilance of the police—or e l se suppressed effectually and altogether. As it i s , they must be what in truth they are—dens of fraud and spoliation, and nurseries of crime. An other topic not unworthy of attention among the circumstances of the trial, was the admission of necessaries to give evidence for the C r own. — The law on the subject seems short and intel ligible, but at the same time by no means satisfactory. It seems t o be comprised in these words of Blackwood : cc It bath been usual for Justices of the Peace, by whom ens , persons charged with felo n y a re committed to o gaol, to admit some one of their accomplices to become a witness (or, as it is generally termed, King's evidence) upon an implied confidence, which the judges of gaol delivery have usually countenanced and adopted—that if such accomplice makes a full and complete discovery of that and of all other felonies to which he is examined by the Magistrate, and afterwards gives his evidence without h prevarication or fraud,e shall not himself be prosecuted." The best comment upon this is the proceedings at Hertford. The accessary in the first place a ppears to be placed under hard ship and uncertainty. The Justices are to de termine the value of his confession. Suppose them to reject it—it is evident that the ac cessary is li a ble to go to trial prejudiced by the confession which he had made. Against this he has, it would a ppear, no protection. Such was Hunt's situation. —ln the next place, the Justices of Peace are placed under a delicate and embarrassing responsibility : they receive the confession of the accessary, and make use of it, upon t h e ccimplied confidence" above mentioned. But suppose the Judge of gaol delivery not to cccountenance and adopt," but discountenance and reject it, how grievous the case of the accomplice put upon his trial, and how embarrassing that of the Justices, who have received and acted upon the communications made by him. It would appear that some means ought to be devised to protect the accomplice from the effects of his rejected confession, and re lieve the Justices, by e eabling or obliging them to hold communication with a Court above, before they pledge expressly, or by implication, the justice of the country. The last resort to the Crown is too precarious and arbitrary to be so far embodied in the criminal proceedings. It is very well at its proper stage. IRISH MUMMY.—As borne labourers were late ly sinking a pit. to procure gravel in a bog, in the County Kildare, on the estate of Mr. William Murphy of Dublin, they discovered at a consider able depth, the body of a man in a state of com plete preservation.—The earth which encom passed the body, was a dry turf mould. The body itself of the consistence of tanned leather; the members so flexible:and the features so perfect as to induce common observers to suppose it had been a recent sepulture ; but the state of the ground in which it had been discovered, and the depth at which it was found, joined to the confident assertions of the oldest persons in the neighbour hood 4G that no person had ever been there in terred during their time" establishes beyond a doubt the fact, that the body has lain in that ground at least one century ! It has been in terred in an adjacent burying ground.—(Carlow :Morning Post.) WEARE'S MURDER-AWFUL TRUTHS. ( From the Antidote.) The curiosity and attention awakened in the public mind, and the unusual space in the public journals, which, since the perpetration of the shocking deed, every circumstance connected therewit has occupied, has been to us a matter in accounting for which we felt ourselves at a loss. Murder is, at all times, and in every in stance, an appalling crime, and one in which sympathy is universal towards the victim, and his or her relations, while horror and indignation is expressed against the perpetrator; but, in this particular case we are at a loss to account for that intense feeling which seems to have been excited. There was not any tie of friendship or consangui nity between the murderer and the murdered ; no particular bond by which individual members of society are united, was broken upon this occa sion : nor was the character of the victim, or of any of the guilty persons, such as to make so unusual an impression upon the public mind, though some of the parties wore a better coat, or were better educated than many of those gene rally impeached with the horrible crime of murder. No—in this case we could not perceive any of those extraordinary shades of guilt which call for general execration; we could, upon attentively perusing the English Journals, alone perceive that a murder had been committed, but a murder of no uncommon kind ; it was unmarked, unattend ed with any of those dreadful features of atro city which we have had, from time to time, to record, and which have brought shame and dis grace upon unfortunate, unhappy Ireland ; but which were only the conversation of a day, and passed over as unheeded as a case of common brutality under Martin's Act : we are really at a loss to account for this astonishing fact. In Eng land the commission of murder is by no means rare, nor unfrequently attended with circum stances of an aggravated nature ; revenge insti gates to some ; the desire of gain to others ; and but too frequently, in England, the unfortunate female becomes the victim of her seducer, an occurrence, thanks to the lenity of our laws, rare in Ireland. On the late occasion, the in citements were more complex. Thurtell seems (from what we have _heard) to have been a cool, plodding gamester, whose mind was wrought upon by the strongest feelings of revenge and disappointment, and who was ready to take ad vantage of any pecu n iary resources thrown in his i ps v t e l villain, without fe e li ng or pr i n . ‘ e, amy cO n m ei p Yn e le c o mpete nt gratification. Hunt i s a despe ra ut to the achievement o f any d ee d, whether a o of on the highway or in privacy, w h ere by th e di s sipation could be supplied ; and Pro bet accessary after the mu r d er , wa s a bankrupt m purse, a bankrupt in pri nc ipl e , an d, a t r, though in an once , e ntered into the spirit of the sanguinary mea suresassociates, and partook of th e i r spo il s ; were tutored in the m o d ern sc h oo l of hisassociates, which is synonymous w ith bar oafll p tl o ir g e i e lism, bar barism. Weare, the victim of their revenge and avarice, was a cautious gambler, who having once pounced upon his prey, coolly plucked him of his last feather; yet so suspicious withal, that his ill-earned gain was never accounted secure when separated from his person ; it is generally under stood that he was seldom without 1,0001., or more, sewed within his flannel jerkin. These we believe to be a true statement of the facts, and the inference is easily drawn. Public sym pathy, it would seem, was first excited by the report that a conspiracy had been entered into by a few of those desperadoes to assassinate twelve or fourteen marked persons, who were obnoxious to them ; and the circumstance of the murder of an obscure individual of desperate character, connected with the idea that twelve or m t ig e ht powerful impression, and also fall under the assas filled the pag e s of th e Conti shiat,s fourteen sftoere irn, o o t h inn e tai r id s s: h nen t a l, British, and Irish Newspapers 1 . Are those things so rare, so much beyond the spher e of common crime, that they are not to be equal led ? No. Does not our domestic history furnish instances innumerable, compared with which, t h e murder of Weare, with all its addenda of conspiracy, &c. is but as the dust in the balance, or a grain of sand upon the sea-shore ? We shall not ransack the pages of history, or look to days that have long passed away, to give an affirmative answer to the latter question ; the burning of Wildgoose Lodge is a recent occu rrence , i n wich eight human beings were sacrificed upon the altar of Molech by a gang of modern legislators, whose plan was matured in a Popish Chapel, after the ceremony of mass had been concluded, and from whose porches they issued to accomplish their blood-thirsty purpose. (Wildgoose Lodge is within four miles of the residence of our en lightened and faithful guardian,- Sir Harcourt Lees, who was himself threatened with destruc tion, having detected and desperately wounded a Whiteboy incendiary who had made his way into the house, and attempted to corrupt his servants ; it was subsequently set on fire, and the lives of his infant and amiable family endangered, it is supposed, by a part of the Wildgoose Lodge gang, as by his own parishioners he is idolized.) This is not a solitary instance ; we can still refer to another, if possible, more atrocious; that of the Sheas, wherein sixteen persons became a prey to the devouring element ; whilst the savage in cendiaries, outside the funeral pile, made the welkin re-echo with their shouts of exultation. If these are still insufficient, our catalogue can be lengthened to an almost unlimited extent, es we scarcely yet entered upon it. Let our readers recall the fate of the following persons, whose bodies can scarcely be said to be cold in their graves—the Franks, the Goolds, Crofts, O'Hara, Torrance, Brereton, Collins, Going, &c. &s. And why were these overlooked by the English Journalists, or if casually glanced at, noticed only as the ephemeral produce of an Irish soil ; unworthy the consideration of civiliz ed beings ; and unattended by any excess of • sympathy either at home or abroad ? It cannot • surely be urged that there was no conspiracy leading to these atrocities, by which the matter was rendered doubly interesting ; nor can it be • said that they fall short, in aggravating points, of .the murder of Weare, for the annals of English ,history produce no such examples as those al. lulled to. A conspiracy certainly exists in Ire land, the object of which is the total extirpation of the Protestants, and of such of the Roman Catholics as lend not themselves to their treason able purposes. Whoever doubts the truth of this assertion, needs only refer to the recorded words of Wm. Conyingham Plunkett, who it cannot be believed would misrepresent those whose cause he has espoused, (the Papists) or be tray the trust reposed in him by his sovereign : he states that an association has " for some years" been organized, whose objects are,—" to extir pate all the Protestants of the country, to over throw the Government, and to recover the rights lost at the reformation." So says the Attorney- General for Ireland !—We have thrown those few hints before our readers for their considera tion : let it be kept in remembrance that it is the duty of some of the radical prints of this country to forget past events, and put as smooth a face as possible upon the present. We shall only give our English readers one other statement—in the month of February, 1823, there were no less than. Twenty-five persons murdered in Ireland by the Whiteboys !!! Let our English readers reflect upon this;—we shall say no more. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.._.. Yesterdaf Joseph Thompson and William Thompson, two brothers, were brought in custody of Bishop, the officer, and underwent an ex , amination before G. R. MiNsnui.r., Esq., the Sitting Ma., gistrate, on a charge of being concerned in stealing a large quantity of jewellery, and other articles, of the value of 1,000/, and upwards the property of THOMAS POTTER MACQUE E Esq. H.P. It was stated that the prisoners were by profession decorative Artists, and had been employed in embellishing Mr. Macqueen's house, No. 19, Park-lane, Mr. Macqueen. left town on the 18th Dec. last, leaving the prisoners at work at his house, and they continued there until about a fortnight since, Mr. Macqueen returned to town on Thursday last, when he dia.. covered that all the drawers in his bed-room had been picked and rifled of every valuable article; the prisoners had frequent access to the bed-room, as they had some slight repairs to do in it. Amongst the articles stolen was a valuable Highland dirk, the handle studded with cairngorams, which was highly prized by Mr. Macqueen, as it had been a family relic for many years. Information of the robbery being transmitted Bow-street, Bishop was dispatched to make inquiries on the business, and after two or three days investigation he suc ceeded in ascertaining that the prisoner 'William Thompson. pawned on the 18th December, at Mr. Harrison's shop, No. 95, Wardour-street, Soho, pawnbroker, a dirk, which in the most minute particular answered to the description of the one stolen, and redeemed it a few days after. In consequence of this dis covery Bishop apprehended both , the prisoners yesterday. They . both strongly protested their innocence, but stated no material fact in their defence.—They were remanded until Saturday next. QUEEN'S SQUARE.—Yesterday a woman, the keeper of an infamous house in the Almonry, was committed for want of bail, upon a charge of ill treatment towards a poor girl who had been seduced into her house for the purpose of prostitution. The wretched girl had been prevailed upon by one of the' vicious inmates of the house to leave a respectable place of • service. MARLBORO UGII-ST REET.—Yestez day Elizabeth Brewster, a vulgar-looking woman, about 24 years of age, was brought from St. James's workhouse, charged with having deserted her male child, about 7 months old, whose death had since taken place—Remanded. LAMBETII-ST REIZT•--CHARGE OF ARSON.—Yesterday, John Wells , a middle-ag e d man , o f rat h er respecta bl e appear ance, was harged with feloniously setting his house on fire...—. Remanded for further examination. SCALE of Catma.—ln the list of setences at the Somerset Quarter Sessions, we find the following among others :—T o twelve months' imprisonment— John Adam, for poaching. One month : Thomas White, for stealing three sjaill.iad\wlvsi familyi: d n George ih arfgoer Aude a bsltee r atol for iing plao leaving rtiasthoeosf._li,pe Isoitiabscivf potatoes.—poaching we suppose is twelve times as criminal as stealing shawls or potatoes. On Friday last, the Members of the Canter bury Book Society met at the Fleur-de-Lis Inn, to commemorate their fourth anniversary, and to , transact the general business of the Society. The Mayor, on this occasion, presided, and the greatest harmony prevailed. The company were served with an excellent dinner, consisting of game, fish, fowl, &c. in season, and in a pro... fusion that did credit to the liberality of Mr. Miller. Our object in noticing the circum.. stance is to give our hearty concurrence to this and similar associations, which have for their object the entertainment and mental im provement of their members ; as they affora moans to individuals, at -a trilling expence, to' read any new publication that is approved bl the generality of the Society ; and when twentf or thirty persons can be found to unite, a suffi cient number of new books can be purchased tCY enable the members in succession to receive set of books weekly, which allows them all opportunity of perusing the best work on all sub.' jects, published during the year.
