THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the ilfortaing Papers, July 6. rTIIE TIMM] 'We have received the Paris morning and even ing papers of Saturday. The former contain no news of the slightest interest, and the latter are nearly equally barren. The Quotidienne gives the Ministers some gentle hints about a timely retreat from office—telling them, that as they obtained power by enjoying the confidence of the Royalists, they had now forfeited it by losing that confidence. In the Chambers nothing had occurred since our last mention of their proceed ings, which deserves notice. Nothing is said which would lead us to suspect any alteration in the health of the King. [MORNING POST.] We observed - in a Paper of yesterday an ar ticle is which the common courtesy shewn by one side of the House of Commons to the other is elegantly denominated as " Parliamentary Hum bug." The Mode is accordingly lauded for having expressed its chagrin at the general har. niony of sentiment between Mr. Secretary Cun ning and Sir James Mackint.osh on the question of South American Independence. What is the inference ? Of course that a popular Ministry is an evil, and that neither sincerity nor public good can be expected but when the two sides of Parliament are at drawn daggers with each other. Verily the new lights that break in on us are 'n umerable. e have this day given a variety of intelli gence from South America, derived from Buenos Ayres and Jamaica Papers to a late date. The rause of independence has greatly suffered from the important posts of Lima and Callao being regained by the Spanish army, as well as the in ternally distracted state of Peru. The Interven tion of the Colombian forces and the elevation of Bolivar to the Dictatorship have evidently been made use of by the friends of the Spaniards in Peru to awaken the petty jealousy which in every nation, and %% WI the greatest strength among the most ignorant, is felt towards neigh bouring states and provinces. Bolivar's procla mation upon this subject will be read with interest.--(lbid.) [MORNING CHRONICLE.] 44 Never in the memory of man," says The Dublin Evening Post, 46 was there n prospect of a more abundant harvest." This sentence forms a very odd commencement of an article in which famine in all its horrors is said to he now raging in Ireland.—" Seven or eight weeks dry weather will crown the hopes of the corn-growers with abundance,—but it is an abundance we appre hend in which the population of the country will not share !! ! "—Thus year after year that beau tiful country is scourged by famine in the midst of plenty. Instead of being a source of strength to us, our own resources are wasted in maintain ing armies to enable the Irish Squirearchy to carry on the struggle with their famishing vassals —and the worst of all is that the evil IR not one to which we can foresee a termination. The people of this country cannot be expected, to come forward every year as they did in 1822. [nut Lim Nit Siirl The jealousies which have been excited by the appointment of Bolivar to the Dictatorship have evidently sunk deeply, when we find among the traitors who have joined the Royalists Torre Tagle, the late President of the Republic. The Spaniards, besides, have possession of nearly the whole country. Truxillo, from whence Bolivar dates his proclamation, is above 300 miles north west of Lima ; it is the northernmost province of Peru. All the interior, and much of the coast, is under the dominion of the Royalists. The fact also that Quito, a province of Colombia, should have been subjected to martini law, proves how serious the aspect of affairs must appear to the authorities in that part of the *Md. In a private letter received yesterday from Bogota, it is also mentioned that a motion had been made in the Colombian Congress to in crease the army by an additional force of fifty thousand men. This motion is ascribed partly to the current rumour, that the French intended to assist the Spaniards to re-conquer their colonieb, and partly to the proceedings in Peru.— From the same source we learn, that Bolivar had again tendered his resignation as President of Colombia. This step is obviously taken only to obtain the sanction of public opinion to his re cent conduct. We have no doubt it will be rea dily given. We are not afraid that the inde pendence of Peru can be destroyed, either by foreign force or domestic treason. Throughout South America not a Spaniard in arms can be found hut in Peru ; and as the new States have all confederated to support each other's inde pendence, though the contest may be somewhat prolonged, the issue must be in favour of the Peruvians. The capture of Lima and Callao at this period is, however, much to be regretted, on account of the effect it may produce in Eu rope. it will be eagerly seized by the. Ultra Papers of France, as a proof that the dominion of Spain may be easily restored ; and it is not to he foreseen what mischievous projects may grow out of a single disaster. DiEw TimEs..] Consols improved yesterday. In the course of the morning they had been at 941; but they closed at 04i, 05. This is to be attributed, in a greet measure, to the favourable accounts received of the king of France's health ; but we cannot avoid repeating, that the vulgar notion is totally unfounded that the death of Louis X VIII. would 130 followed by Political disturbances. All danger of that kind ceased with the downfall of Decaze. That Minister protected the Liberals, and nursed theM . up Into cousequence; but when deprived of his fostering care, they fell back into their nativ6 insignificance ; and as to the Buonapartists, they isityclnng been extinct as a faction.--The apilie . ation or the King of Portugal for troops to be monied as a subject of much in terest we believe we may confidently state, that eight thousand Hanoverians are to be sent forth with to Portugal, and to be paid and supported by the Portuguese Government. It was yester day rumoured that transports are preparing in our ports to convey this force to its destination. It has been suggested that the people of Portugal may view the arrival of these strangers with in dignation, and may thus be driven to resistance : but this reasoning is founded on a false view of the feelings of the Portuguese. We Islanders have a just and constitutional jealousy of foreign soldiers ; but it is not so on the continent, where almost every sovereign has some foreign corps in his service. Tlie South American Securities con tinue rapidly to decline. Colombian Scrip, at one period of the day, was 41 dis count, but it closed at 2.1 discount ; Mexican was at 34 discount, but closed at 1i discount ; Peruvian Scrip was at 14 discount ! This last circumstance is easily to be explained by the latest advices from South America. A letter, dated Callao, ht March, which was received yesterday, states, that the Spanish forces, under Gen. Radii, took possession of the Castle the preceeding day, and Lima the evening previous. The evacuation of Lima had been effected with out any public commotion or tumult, a few trilling robberies only having been committed. The entry of the Spanish troops into Callao had af forded, this letter states, confidence to the mer chants that their property would be secure, much alarm having previously existed for its safety from the depredations of the Black troops. [MORNING HERALIId Saturday's Paris Papers, with the Pilots and Elate of Sunday, were received yesterday. The war of words is still unremittingly kept up be. tween the two sects of Royalists, who adhere respectively to M. Chateaubriand and They mutually criminate and recriminate, and the consequence is, that in this way some curious circumstances are brought to light. A new ver sion, for instance, has been put forth of the cause of M. de Chateaubrian's dismissal from the Mi nistry. It is his having intrigued in favour of the Queen of Portugal and her son, against the Sovereign of that Kingdom, on occasion of the late conspiracy. The ex-Minister is said to have been detected and denounced to his colleagues by Mr. Canning. The truth of this statement is by no means apparent.— It professes to be conveyed in an article dated from Manheim. Perhaps the best criterion is the character and political bias of the Journal in which it is published—and this circumstance would lead to a belief in its correctness. The Pilote, once conducted on the principles of Libe. ralism, is one of those that have been bought up by the Ministry—and ray be presumed to speak only by Ministerial dictation. The Journal des Davis, which was, and is the especial organ and instrument of M. de Chateaubriand, shifted very remarkably on the subject of the Lisbon insur rection when it broke out. On the first arrival of the news, it treated the affair with unqualified and even contemptuous censure, but the next day there was a distinct retraction —a sort of amends honourable, to the Queen, her son, and their party--which looked very like a suggestion, or perhaps rebuke of the patron, then Minister. There is nothing in his character to render his having meddled at all improbable. lie has always shewn an unquiet desire to be conspicuous—an impatience of repose, and even of regularity, which might tempt him to an endeavour, by a change of affairs which should assimilate Portugal to Spain, to relieve himself] from the superiority of M. de Villele. The .par tisans of the fallen Minister even say that he was obliged to drag M. de Villele into the invasion of Spain ; and that if his counsels had been followed, much more would have beeu gained for " the faith" and " legitimacy." Another circumstance worth observing is, that it is utterly improbable that the Queen of Portugal and her son would have attempted a revolutionary coup de main with. out assurances of foreign support—and of no weak support, to counteract the well-known opposi tion of British influence. It would appear from t h ese papers that the health of the King of France has suffered no material alteration. At hi s age, and with his personal infirmities, the tenure of life 13 most precarious, and this will naturally produce frequent rumours and alarms. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

To the Right Hon. GEORGE CANNING. shall make no apology for intruding on your time ; the busiest and the wisest men have most leisure, for they assign to each hour its proper duty. To a first Minister who wields the power of this vast Empire, while his wisdom directs her, counsels in the Senate to a statesman who enjoys and deserves to enjoy this free nation's confidence, the present crisis is big with incident. We have lived to see systems overthrown in government ; in others in commerce—our blind devotion to national vanity lost us America, or rather anticipated the loss, by a few years of folly, which would have taken place in a more steady, quiet, and statesman-like form—in a few years, perhaps half a century, such is the notori ous expose of national gratitude—such is the love of colonial infancy for its parent's senility. From the loss of America, we may date the commencement of those systems of change in sentiment and in Governments, which, by steady and necessary reciprocation, induced the grand metastasis in political life, engendered in all the old Governments of Europe. When will Statesmen, those enlightened Emis saries of Heaven's attributes, to alleviate the evils of poor and frail humanity, derive know ledge from experience ? when in this free Govern ment will our Statesmen acknowledge truth when they do actually appreciate its blessings, and knowing it, to have the courage to dare either popular odium or Royal spleen, by nobly relying on self, uniform, manly, energetic, all-sufficient genius—who, Mr. CANNING, can believe but the adage of the moralist is applicable to you and to your compeers in this influential administration. " Video meliora proboque ; detenosa minor." Have you profited by the experience of the last half century—have the records of your office grown musty on their shelves, moistened with the vast tide of British blood shed in conformity to the mandate of folly, at one time time royal, at another democratic and factious? Has our fatuilous effort at domination, which lost us our Colonies, those exuberant Scyons of national ex crescence, been thrown away on the will of a great Statesman, worthy to wield the Empire whichCHATnAst grasped—why,Mr. CANNING, do you wait ?—Do you want knowledge of French politics in the year of our Lord 1824 ? Do you think that nation of brave men, of cava liers, now metamorphosed into heartless and fac tious Royalists and democrats, and self-consti tuted patriots—do you mistake their views, their vices, their crimes national, constitutional, ende mini ? Know you not the definition or the cha racteristic of the Gallic nation, drawn by the terse and acute annalist, Tacitius ?—Will you, while your beaureaux are filled with rational, cautionary surveillance of Europe's apostasy—will you, with a brave, a free, and great nation, occupying the central point of assault in old Europe, aided by the young but gigantic arm of h er asp i r i ng o ff spr i ng i n th e N ew World--t-will you wait tilt despots have risen like strong Men from their slumber, and arrayed their strength for battle ? The glory of modern politics is the anticipa tion of great evils in their germina, and by bold but salutary caution striking those great blows, wl►ich,though despots may declaim never so loudly, though patriots may rail ever so pitiously, still the silent and calm voice of universal approval will calm like the voice of a wise and good man in a moment of popular madness. This moment has art've d,--w ill you wait till associated despots have plumed their eagle pinions for an ill-omened flight against the free and the brave in the young governments of that vast Continent, South America? Be bold, —be vigilant,--a few noble and vigilant strokes will astonish and astound these whiskered cor fathom of the North,—these great, these bad, and multified despots, who, assuming the blasphemous attribute of Holy, would palter up their vile systems of domination under the trite and mean garb whose seams are obvious. What! shall we now mistake the policy of fools because they wear paper crowns, left on their unworthy heads by the Corsican puppet, by mere accidents in seasons, in gusts of wind, snow, and frost ? Are we to consider that Kings have not the sense to improve, which is so notoriously cog nizable to their subjects, or do we want a know. ledge of the deterioration of the human heart, by the cares and habitudes of exalted place Let us awake—let us do in time what as suredly we shall be driven to ere the close of this year—send a large naval force to the waters of the Spanish Main—wait not till their green garbed Scythlas leave them—move to their forests for other Scithias and other climes—let our navy ride on their saline frontiers—let Spain and Por tugal in the Old, and their Colonies in the New World, claim the protection, th e bl oo d, t h e trea sure of this godlike, pro tecti ng arm, thunder so lately hu r l e d it s b o l ts on upstar t des pot,, and enfranchised E urope. whose BELLA'fOR. A letter from Vienna, dated the 15th June, states, that in the n e i g hb our hood of l'esth, in Hungary, the complaint is universal of the ex treme cheapness of all sorts of indigenous pro. duce-- at the same time that there was an in creasing disposition on the part of people of pro perty to speculate in Government Securities. The following is an extract from a letter, dated Cadiz, the Ist June t--• 44 We are plagued with an almost msparalleled drought, and with inces. sant stormy east winds, which together totally destroyed all vegetation, converting the sown corn into sheer straw.

A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE of the NATIONAL (late TILE AIiGEItBTEIN) GALLERY, now open to the Public, in Pall Mall. In a brief preface to this tract we aro informed that " these NoTicEs (which are here printed separately for the convenience of Visitors to the National Gallery) form a portion of a work, entitled " British Galleries of Art." The work is to include critical descriptions of the principal objects of Fine Art existing in England at this time. A work of this nature is well calculated to give encouragement to those who devote their talents to Painting and the other arts which embellish society, as well as to improve the general taste. The National Gallery, here noticed, which belonged to the late Mr. ANGER STEIN, who had formed this fine collection of Pictures, regardless of expence, under the guid ance of his friend, Sir THOMAS LAWRENCE, ap pears to be viewed in the present tract with candour and judgment. The collection is now gratuitously opened to the Public, and has ex cited much attention. This tract is certainly well calculated to enable the spectator to ob. serve the prominent excellencies of the several works which constitute the collection, and we may, therefore, fairly recommend it as a Vada Mecum to the visitors. JAMAICA PAPERS. ( From the Jamaica Courant, May 26.) PANAMA, APRIL 27.—General Bolivar was at Truxillo, his advanced guard at Putivilia ; he has under his command 8,000 Colombians, and 2,000 Peruvians. The regiment of Tacedores, 1,000 strong, sailed from this port, on the 25th, for Guayaquil ; they were accompanied by spare transports, in order to take in 2,000 men at Guayaquil, and would proceed immediately af terwards for Truxillo.

MR. EDITOR—You favoured us lately with an anecdote of MALIIERDN, who is so cblebrated a French Poet, that perhaps it would not be disagreeable to your readers to see something more about him. Ile was just that blunt, or what his countrymen would say, frank character, which the anecdote told of him in your paper proves him. Another instance of his frankness was on an occasion when some man of consequence and rank brought some verses which he had composed in praise of a lady, telling him, as he showed them, that he had some private reasons for the compo. Having read them, he asked him if he were con demned to write them, or to be hung ; otherwise, said he, you should not expose your reputation to such ridicule. The writer, who was conse quential, as well as a man of consequence, was not a little offended, and such a scene past be tween them as might be the basis of the famous scene in MOLIME'S Misantrope. When another great man, no less than art Archbishop, had in vited him to hear him preach, he fell fast asleep before he quitted the table, and when the Pre late wished to wake him that he might go with him to the church, the Poet begged to be excused, as he slept well enough without the sermon, which was sure to be a good composition for sleep, if it was good for nothing else. An Oriental scholar was said in his presence to understand the Punk tongue well enough to translate the Pater into the language. Oh ! says he, I will translate the credo, and he poured forth a volley of barbarous words, just as they came uppermost ; there, says he, is the Punic credo ; who can prove the contrary ? One time, when he wanted to punish a servant to whom he gave 10 sous a day and 20 crowns a year, he said to him, Friend, when your master is offended, God is, and when he is offended, to have absolution, we must fast and do alms ; I shall therefore de tain 5 sons of your wages, which I shall give to the poor in your name for the expiation of your sins. When he wished to fight a duel with a man who had killed his son, and he was told what madness it was for a man of seventy-five to fight with a man who was only twenty-five, on that account, he answered, I wish to fight, because my stake is a farthing against a crown. lie was particularly concerned for the purity of his native language, so much, that an hour before his death, after having been a long time strug gling with its attack, he sprung up , on a sudden to correct a word which he did not think pure French ; and when his Confessor was represent ing heaven in a low and beggarly style, and ask ed him whether he would not rejoice to taste such pleasures ? Speak to me no more of them, he exclaimed, your style disgusts me with them. Your would-be politicians should be reminded of one of his favourite apothegms :—" We must not meddle with the management of a ship in which we are only passengers." Though MALUERBE was proud of his poetry, he often repeated the same thoughts in his works, and in reciting his verses he was in the con s t ant habit of spitting ; upon which a wag remarked, that there never was a man more humorous, nor a Poet more dry.

Having learned of this ragged sybil, to know if at the next drawing for the conscription he should escape, and if he should marry the girl he was attached to, he received for answer that the lot would fall upon him to join the army, and that his mistress would marry another.
