THE LONDON JOUEtNALS• DAILY Extracts front the Morning Papers, March 19. [NEW TIMES.] The Debate of last night in the House of Com mons was more amusing than important. Lord John Russell deserves some praise for his intre pidity in bringing forward his promised motion about Spain, when all the world is tired of the subject, and all the predictions and expectaf.ions of his political friends have been falsified and disappointed. . - Consols closed at 94 for the Account yester day, and more business was transacted than for the last few days. The private advises received by the expresses are of a favourable nature, and the Rentes were on Tuesday in Paris higher ; but the political intelligence continues of the same unimportant character as for some time past.—ln Foreign Securities we have little to notice, as the business transacted has been inconsiderable ; the prices consequently remain without alteration.— Some purchases were made in the New Assur ance Company's Shares at 15 premium; the first instalment upon this plan is payable to-day, and will place in the hands of the Treasurer an im mediate capital of 500,000t.—(Ibid.) [MORNING POST.] In the House of Commons last night, Lord John Russell made his promised Motion on the subject of the evacuation of Spain; for the pur pose, as he asserted, not to bring a charge against his Majesty's Ministers, but to draw from them some explanation of the policy which they had adopted towards that country. Sir Robert Wil son took that opportunity, while seconding the motion, to bring his own case before the House, and to describe the services by which he had obtained the Foreign Orders of which he had recently been deprived. This he did at consi derable length, but with a degree of military frankness which does equal honour to his he roism and modesty, as our readers will be able to judge by the following specimen :—" One of these Ordershad lwen for participation in a service which (he would say it) was for daring enterprise in the plan, for fortitude in the execution of it, and for brilliancy of success not exceeded by any thing that occurred in the course of the war."— Now this is all very natural, but it appears to us that the gallant (aur would have better con sulted his dignity if he had remained silent on the subject. llis taking notice of the withdraw ing of his order might be considered by some less acquainted with his contempt for distinctions as a proof that he regretted their loss. Mr. Lit tleton wisely returned to the original question, and considering his Majesty's Ministers entitled to the confidence of the country, and no danger likely to accrue from the temporary occupation of Spain by the French armies, moved an amend ment to that effect. On this the House were going to divide, not one additional voice being raised in support of the motion of the Noble Lord, when Mr. Secretary Canning rose and ex pressed his astonishment at the inconceivable neglect to which a proposition brought forward with so much of menace and preparation scorned likely to be sacrificed. The Right Honourable Gentleman then declared, that he believed France to be at this moment anxious for the evacuation of Spain, and that there was less difference than Gentlemen seemed to imagine between the views which France entertained to wards Spain and those which were supported by tots country. In a vein of the richest irony he then represented the military expeditions of the Gallant Officer (Sir Robert Wilson) and a cer tain Noble Lord, as having thrown great impe diments in the way of neutrality, and showed that they had compelled his Majesty's Ministers to offer explanations, when they should only have thought of asking them. The description given by the Right lion. Secretary of a Noble Volun teer's journey- to Falmouth convulsed the House with laughter. The Motion was ultimately ne gatived, and the amendment Agreed to without a division. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] As the present Session is likely to give birth to an inquiry into the state of the practice of Courts of Equity, with a view to the most effec tive means of preventing the delays and extraor dinary expences of proceedings in those Courts, the public must naturally feel anxious to be in formed who the individuals are to whom they are to look for the redress of those grievances of which they have so long complained. We do not profess to be in the secret as to who are to be the Commissioners charged with this most important duty, but rumours have reached us on the sub ject, and though not prepared to state affirma tively who the Commissioners ought to be, we think we may, without exposing ourselves to much difference of opinion, state who they ought not to be. We will not presume to assert that the Lord Chancellor, under other circumstances, would not be a proper person to be at the head of such an inquiry, but we think we may venture to doubt whether, under existing circumstances, he ought to preside on this Commission. His Lordship, as Chancellor, has been at the head of the Profession for upwards of twenty years, and whatever may be the cause of the grievances now complained of, it seems to be admitted that they had not reached so intolerable a height when his Lordship was raised to his distinguished station. We mean not to infer that his Lordship has been 'wanting in the discharge of any of his various and arduous professional duties, but we refer to the fact to shew that the evil has grown up, if it did not originate, in his Presidency, and thence eon elude, that as his Lordship has not taken a single step during twenty years, almost daily witnessing the evil, to check its progress, he is not the indi vidual upon whom reliance can be had for its utter extirpation.—Should it be said that the Chancellor's time has been too much occupied in administering the law to allow of his directing his attention to the amendment of it, allowing the apology, we would then ask whether his Lord ship is likely to find time to review a mass of grievances, the growth of many, many years, if' be could not find time to prevent that growth by checking it even in a single instance ? lu this view of the Chancellor's pretensions to be at the head of the projected Commission, we have abstained from alluding to any benefit that may be sup posed to accrue to the Great Seal from the alleged abuses—no one has imputed improper motives to the Lord Chancellor, in the adminis tration of justice, though all must admit that more than former inFonvenience to individuals has been experienced since his Lordship was charged with the Great Seal. But we must think that we have suggested sufficient objections to his Lord ship's reviewing the present state of grievances, when we represent them (and the fact will not be denied) as grievances which were notknown, or at least, not in any degree, as of the present size, before his Lordship was elevated to his almost supreme judicial station. As a Peer, the Chan cellor will have the opportunity of reviewing the result of the labours of others on this inquiry, and we are willing to hope will honourably dis charge his duty. But the public will feel that he ought not to be associated, in an inquiry on the state of his Court, with persons whose judg ment may be influenced by his high judicial au thority, or by his claims to personal gratitude. [THE Tuvres.] There will be seen, in to-day's paper, a project for the establishment of what is called a Chamber of Commerce in and for the city of London. The report of a Committee appointed to collect in formation on the subject was received yesterday by a general meeting convened at the City of London Tavern. We believe the persons con nected in this business to be highly respectable. In proof of that belief, indeed, it is sufficient to point to the name of the Chairman ; but we can not conceive the scheme itself to be equally wise. The term " Chamber" of Commerce is derived from France. We recollect, that when Sir Francis Burdett attempted to impose that appel lation upon a certain assembly, studiously calling it " this room," and " this chamber," instead of " this House," the Members were all excessively indignant, and flouted the misnomer as calculated to convey insult ; and for our own parts, we think " the Chamber of Commerce" at least as absurd as " the Chamber of Commons." We find, however, from the report, that there already exist in some of our great trading towns, establishments called Chambers of Commerce. Of the merits of these we know nothing; but we do know full well,l that in France, where Chambers of Commerce are in full operation, they are felt to be very mischievous institutions. They monopolize privi leges, they clog commerce, they deal out partial justice to mercantile suitors, and they make the spirit of commercial enterprise evaporate in babble. A list of persons capable of occupying stations in the London Chamber of Commerce is given in the report. We ask, if those Gen tlemen will become one whit the wiser— will their knowledge be extended, or their sa gacity sharpened, by quitting their counting-, houses and entering a common chamber ? Might they not be consulted with more ease and less confusion each in his own bureau ? A hint is also given, that the London Chamber of Com merce might be called upon to decide mercantile causes. This has a fearful sound indeed. Our commercial law rests at present like all our other rights, upon the firm basis of a Jury, from which each litigant is at liberty to erase the names of those whom he may believe liable to an unfair bias, either personal, political, or commercial ; but 46 the Chamber of Commerce " would pre sent him with a Jury ready struck, and above all human passions, of course. What ground for challenge could there be against such men as the Governor and Deputy Governor of the Bank of England ; the Chairman and Deputy-Chairman of the East India Company ? But if these should have a trial with each other, then Mercury, the god who rules over the commercial world, must be sum moned to preside in person.—ln serious gravity, however, we do hope that this matter will not he persevered in. Each of the persons mentioned in the Report will best serve the interests of com merce, and most effectually benefit his country by attending to his own business, and the duties of the distinguished situation which lie has been already called to fill. There are then, also, the offices of social and domestic life to discharge : whatever is superadded to all these can only breed distraction, and impair the operation of the whole. PRESS.] Lord John Russell, at the close of a length ened speech, in which we thought he did not treat the affairs of Spain with that knowledge and discrimination► that mark the highly culti vated mind of this distinguished young Noble man on other occasions, brought forward last night his motion for " Copies of all Communica tions made by this Government to that of France respecting the evacuation of Spain by the French troops." Mr. Canning's speech, in reply, was one of the happiest efforts of his elo quence. His allusions to the chivalrous crusade of Sir Robert Wilson (whom the Right Hon. Secretary, with the urbanity that distinguishes him in debate, called all through his Honourable Friend), and to the warlike expedition of Lord Nugent to the shores of Spain, and the for midable panoply prepared by him for his Iberian battles, were in the best style of playful " ba dinage," and called down irresistible laughter.— We are afraid, that from the first moment Lord Nugent's campaign had something Quixotic about it. The blowing up the French vessels in the bay of Cadiz savoured strongly of the La Mancha Knight ; and we fancy the veteran Valdez, then in command at Cadiz, thought so too, and in consequence restrained the Noble Lord from risking his valuable person with a single boat and a " catamaran" to " sink, burn, and destroy" a whole fleet. Such a plan certainly was strongly in the style of the valorous " Bobadil," who proclaims annihilation to an entire army of 20,000 men, in a few successive encounters, by his single rapier. We do not think, however, of impeaching, for a single moment, the high spirit and chalirster of Lord Nugent ; both are un questioned; and his motives, when he engaged in the defence, of Spanish liberty, were, we are sure, most honourable and disinterested. Sir Robert Wilson's generous devotion of his services to Spain, in her hour of trial, were of a different cast, though at Corunna, and in his nnfor-' tunate treaty with the renegade Morillo, he committed, we fear, some unhappy errors ; but he possessed high military character and ex perience. —He had fought on the soil of Spain before, and with equal gallantry and success ; and had the Spaniards rallied to the combat for their independence, as was expected, Sir Robert Wilson's devotion to their cause must have been !Rost valuable. Mr. Canning, in the course of his brilliant address, stated, that at the period a neutrality was promised by this country between France and Spain, three express stipulations were made: the first, that no attempt should be made on Portugal, the an cient ally of this country, whom we were bound by treaty to defend ; the second, that South America should not be interfered with ; and the third, that no permanent military occupation should be taken by France of Spain. Portugal (the Right Honourable Secretary added) had not been attacked; South America was not inter fered with; and the occupation .of Spain was defined by treaty, and would not be permanent. The French troops, he stated, were now the great protection of the remaining friends of li berty in that enem ies unhappy country, and the most iestliefanatcs possessed. Lord John Russell's speech last night was desultory and ineffective, and did not appear to carry any im pression with the House. There is no man of any principle or independence who must not re gard the attack made by France on Spain as most atrocious ; it was uncalled for in every way, and brought a host of horrors in its train ; but it would have been madness for this country to have rushed into a war for the mere preserva tion of a Constitution full of defects and vi sionary errors, and to which a large party of the Spaniards themselves were hostilely opposed. Every thing now shews that Ministers acted wisely, and that in preserving peace they took that line of policy best suited to the character and interests of the country. The debate which sprung up on the discussion was a most animated one ; at the close, Mr. Lyttleton's amendment, which will be found in our columns, was carried with the coincident of a vast majority. FOR THE SUN. TO THE POLITICAL ECONOMISTS. The Economists are again at work, sounding in our ears their new principle of free trade.—f i Sir, have been educated in that school in which it was not thought any crime to admire, and even to extol, the ancient navigation laws, and that co lonial policy which gave the greatest encourage ment to all other branches of native industry, or to admire those Statesmen who, following the principles handed down to us by our ancestors, considered those laws as the safeguard of the State—who, when the most portentous cloud hung over and threatened this island with de struction, had then the proud satisfaction to see Great Britain most effectually put forth her maritime strength to curb that Hydra of Demo cracy which threatened to overwhelm all Europe in one common ruin. This democracy afterwards changed its character to that of a Monarchical Ilydra of Despotism; but still in this despoiling shape it was met, overawed, and finally subdued by means of the naval preponderance of Great Britain. this result as a foundation incontro vertible, faking a nd as d er i ve d f rom th e w i n d ow an d efficacy of those Laws, how astonishing must the acts of this boasted new era appear to those who y e t preserve consistency in their former impressions, wr e find that system of policy which every one then acknowledged as the na tural bulwarkof proved the salvation of the nation, and which, in the late desperate struggle, the country, and has likewise been the means of ving the of all the Monarchs of Europe, w subject for declamation to every now become crowns a r—those laws, which even the Review acknowledges to have had E pu d n in y bu p r o g l h i ti R cian that reverential hold on the minds of all classes of the community, that twenty years ago no man would have dared to have stood forward to pro pose their abrogation ! Yet the consistency of some men's political creed his been much extoll ed, who suddenly found in those laws matter for the theme of continual reproach—who suddenly found them a theme to ridicule as the grossest blunders—as the most positive remains of the barbarism of our forefathers—and that, fortunate ly for us, a new light had at last illuminated our hemisphere—that every risk must now be run, even to the ruin of a great part of the community, (the extent of which ruin no one has dared to surmise), to clear the present generation of that invidious disgrace, which so long has ' been attached to our statute book !—Those barbarous relics of our forefathers are to be swept away to make place (under a Tory administration) for the introduction of an en tire new code, founded on those sound and liberal principles which were so long and so strongly recommended by those once considered our enemies (the Illuminati of France and Ger many), taken up at second hand by the radicals, then joined by the Whigs, and at last recom mended for practical adoption by those who were thought to be Tories ! The first step towards the accomplishment of the new theory was to endeavour to impair the magnitude of our commercial marine, which was considered too extensive to suit foreign interests, by relaxing the Navigation Laws, and relaxing our Colonial Policy, to introduce what is termed a reciprocity or equalizing of duties on the ship ping of all nations entering our ports, without any consideration of the different rates on their value and the expence of navigating them ; thereby giving the foreign shipping a decided advantage in supplying us with the produce of their respective countries, which they are enabled to do much cheaper than our own shipping, where by the freights are lost to us. Then follows a notice of withdrawing the bounties hitherto granted to the Fisheries, and that a larger duty will be imposed on sea-borne coals than on those supplied by inland convey ance! This is the sound principle—the boast ed liberal policy—the perfect freedom of trade, that is to be enforced as regards British naviga tion, the greater part of which has been accom plished, and the remainder undoubtedly may be carried into effect, without meeting any formidable opposition more than that which the Shipping In terests may feebly interpose, which as yet has had no effect in any way to check the measures as they have been progressively brought forward, though they have made it known that they can not successfully compete under such circum stances,—that their prospects are blasted by those sound principles,—and that the shipping must be gradually annihilated under such a bane ful influence.—There perhaps never existed a greater peril, pregnant with more danger to the vital interests of a maritime country, than is to be apprehended from the ill-judged desperate spe culation in this freedom of trade, and this concilia tion of Foreign Powers, which gives them the choice of imposing evils on us, or rejecting our humiliating offers. It will enable them to fill us up a cup of bitterness, and make us drain it to the dregs. We have allowed them already to tell us that if we do not yield, they will compel us to make the sacrifice. Then, most gracious Provi dence ! is our national character likewise gone ? It might be thought that, on hearing this, at least we had touched the bottom of humiliation ; that our lead had come up covered with mud and dirt ; that we should thence determine on a dif ferent course ! But our economists have found in the lowest deep a still lower deep, opening to them a dark profound abyss, and into that they are directing their career, and still pressing for ward, resolving to plunge deeper and deeper into humiliation, conciliation, and folly, without end !—To a people who have been proud and great, and great because they were proud, a change in the national spirit is the most terrible of all Revolutions. Then may we inquire how is it that our national character has become on a sudden so completely changed. What would a Cromwell, a Blake, or a Claren don have said, or, in modern times, what would the first Earl of Chatham, or the first Earl of Liverpool have said to such measures ! But, lower ing our degraded selves from their high spirit, the least that can be said is, that too much shopkeeping principle is abroad. There is in this no intention to ridicule honourable trade ; but we find such principles abroad in every spe culative merchant and broker; and nearly every branch of trade seeking to sacrifice its fellow, in hopes of more gain to itself ! That war is now ended which had given us for a time almost the entire navigation of the globe—that trade which made England a univer sal depot, from which merchants, brokers, and others derived much benefit ; but those gains flowed from an unnatural source, and ceased with the cause. The trade of the world then fell into its more natural course, which caused a diminu tion of gain to those whom that trade had em ployed, and a clamour was raised to endeavour to find artificial means to bring it back—and this under the pretence of liberal ideas and free dom of trade ! It is a thing utterly impossible to induce Foreigners to deposit goods in this country to any extent ; it was a stoppage from a natural cause which time as naturally would have rectified and brought to a level. This country was in a state to command and facilitate a full proportion of commerce; and natural causes have rectified and re-instated the commerce of the country, and not the measures of the Economists. They had, it is fatally true, searched out all the old tattered remnants which had fallen from the illuminati, which they new furbelowed, tinselled, and vamped up, and put forth as their own ; their nostrums were eagerly gulped down by the ava ricious speculators and the inconsiderate ; and a loud clamour soon made converts in higher situ tions, which it is impossible to account for on ra tional grounds! As yet the agriculturists have re sisted the principle as regards themselves ; but at any rate it has found its way deeply into the Se nate, where it threatens to become a gangrene to the State, and will gradually stop circulation, if not impeded in its fatal course. The Navigation Laws, and all the barriers that once protected our commercial shipping, are now thrown down, and whilst this was doing the other interests looked calmly on as if they had no thing to dread ; they never once thought that any other steps were necessary ; they therefore will. ingly sacrificed the shipping, those stately out works that had rendered the citadel impregna ble, when the slightest consideration would have made it obvious that the shipping had a double claim to protection,—first, as the natural defence of the country depends on the seamen ; and, 2dly, from their equal right to protection,—and that the protecting laws under which the ship owners' ca pitals were embarked were the most ancient in the kingdom. They never perceived, while the out works were demolishing, that the economists had declared free trade a general principle, and that other countries were to be thereby invited on the liberal principle of free and unrestricted recipro city and conciliation, to supply the British mar kets with corn, cattle, butter, and cheese, at a much cheaper rate than it is possible for our agri culturists to do : that linens, silks, and all other articles, whether of growth or manufacture, can and will be brought into this country, if the system of " sound principle" is persisted in and carried to the full stretch, at a much cheaper rate than it is possible for us to supply ; for in this country, our national debt, and a consequent taxa tion, disproportionately increase the expence of la bour and materials. By degrees the cloud of so phistries breaks over us, and we come nearerto the climax of the plan " for the further conciliation of Foreign Powers", and it seems well calculat ed to render the system still more complete, for there is a proposition in embryo to allow the artisans to march off with all their apparatus, im plements, and machinery of every description.— This is something like a finish to the work. Those ho on the first clamour for free trade, perhaps might not contemplate the full extent of the liberal system, may now h ave a li t tl e more ex' tensive view! ! Many of them never thought that any of th e p o i so n e d c h a li ce was preparing for their own lips ! Oh, no ! b u t, now i t i s p re pared . many of those lib era l s h ave turne d ro und 111 dismay,—one p ra y s f or ti me — anot h er f or indem nity,—and others to be excuse d a lt oge ther frofromits effects ! The m e di c i ne i s goo d f or any 1)1 1 themselves--they wish to shun th e em brace °; conciliation, and fi nd in recip r o c ity no charms • They most willingly assisted in raising a whirl wind for the destruction of others, but offer up most devout prayers that the impending storm may pass over their own heads in safety and that they may b e s h e lt ere d f rom t he destructive blast ! Th us , many w h o c l amo ureu , and lent their aid,now say that they never intend' ed the system to extend so far, or most certainlY not to themselves! Yet it may be asked whether they sanctioned that sweeping resolution, 44 that all restriction on trade is an evil," or did they expect that this most profoundly combined system of free trade, with so much tinsel, and gloss, and varnish, was got up t o res t w i t h t h e sacr ifi ce 01 British Navigation alone, and doomed it alone t o compete with misery an d rags , great as t h at sacri fice was ! If any one thought this, he mus e have looked very superficially into this question, or he must have thought very unjustly that British Navigation was alone to yield, and hai e its capital alone ground down to dust, to increase the contingent chances of the other parts o f the community, without either indemnity or time being extended to it ! What had the ship' ping and seamen done to call down so severe 3 measure of vengeance and punishment ? It was much more rational to conclude that the econo . mists never meant to stop with that measure, but to proceed onward as far as their visions may carry them. They from the beginning held out that there were two great evils to stir' mount before their plan could be effected, (viz, the National Debt and the Corn Laws). I t is true there was some little hesitation on the in' troduction of" sound principles," as to their being of too sweeping a character to be accomplished without much difficulty. There are evidently some qualms of this sort still rema i n i ng ; b ut " a soun d principle" is still echoed and re-echoed, although the first movers now begin to see the dreadful precipice. They see in that which lies before them innumerable accumulating difficulties, which must increase at every step; arid yet there seem°, a determination to pr ocee d aga i nst t h e repeate d warnings of practice ! It may reasonably be 1 0 ' quired for what end all these dangers to all our old establishments are to be undertaken, when, year after year, we are corning round from those difficulties which the war had occasioned, by the natural resuscitation and course o f events, an not by any efforts that have arisen from our sound principles.

All Foreign Powers bacg s their choke of taking the vantage ground. If rti their power to undersell us, they will make the election : if on the contrary, they will spurn O r offer, and shun our reciprocity.
