l'ilE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Ed tracts from the Morning Pipers, Dcc. 14. [TM TIMES.] By the German Papers, we find that some of the States of Germany are employed in mutual bargainings for an abatement of those vexatious ind perniciouS duties which impede • the transit of useful merchandise between neighbours the flost favourably situated for an intercourse reci procally advantageous.. In a country so sub divided as Germany, it is difficult to imagine the 11.01:QpitiCeS experienced, by the better classes of inhabitants, from the wretched system of inqui sition and obstruction established on every point of the frontier, in even the most petty sovereignty. The examples appear to have been set by the more powerful, and forced, in .many instances, upon the minor states. It is naturally among these latter, also, that the mischief seems to h,ave been, most severely felt ; or, at least, that Nikom enough has been discovered, to provide the necessary remedy. Wurtemberg and Ba varia are engaged in conferences on this inter esting question; and Switzerland, a deep sufferer from the same has become a party to their uegociations. As for Austria, we might as well expect to,aee.schpolsof political economy. opened iiplopv the ,Abyssinians, the Esquilnaux, or Caffres, as any improvement sanctioned by her in the existing, relations between individuals, or in those between sovereign and subject.' Prussia, we believe, might be brought to reason with less difficulty than the Leiiathan of the South. [Flamm rims.] We rejoice to learn that tin'. general stele of Ireland continues perfectly tranquil, and that there is no present reason to dread any disturb ance of the public peace. Except now and then a" whiskey insurrection," arisi: f rom nit excess of the circulating medium of Irisis conviviality, there is nothing of a disorderly aspect in any part ;of the island. The warfare of words is formi dable, no doubt ; and that this arises out of a conflict of passions more formidable still, we are well aware ; but are we entitled to expect that the state of Ireland can permanently be very different from what it is, white the fruitful causes of dissension which have so long existed are per mitted to remain ? The friends to good order will always be found arrayed on the side of of Govern ment; but at the same time, as friends to right and justice, they cannot but he anxious that those :honourable franchises which belong alike to all as the subjects of a free Government, should not, by being withheld from tiny class in the State, be made to embroil those who administer it in everlasting disquietude ; and by furnishing' the great body of the people with endless, causes of exasperation, beget end perpetoute that very state of society which it is the end of all govern ment and of all law to provide against The Scribleri of the Orange party seem determined that no reeling or animosity shall be permitted to expire which the runy Press of Dublin can keep alive. But we are not deceived by this incessant outcry in England ; the more reflective amongst us blame the leaders of the Catholic Cause for their unadvised and turbulent zeal; but we are thoroughly well informed as to the real object of the controversy ; we know well that it is not a struggle to uphold the Protestant Church, which is in no dattger,,but to preserve thatcoMmanding influence and exclusive patrOnage which are in greet danger, and which are considered by ees.. trtin noble families as a vested interest, with which.neither the King nor his:Ministers have a itgitirnate right to interfere.. We are ourselves the Strenuous advocates of a Church Establish metal but in Ireland we consider it as abused ft= its true purpose ; the proof of this is amply afforded in every page of its hiStory. In the approaching Session of Parliament the condition of the Sister Kingdom must neces sarily take the lead among so' canny important subjects which will call forth its attention ; and when that time arrives, it must be met, as we have no doubt it will, with that firm but fair spirit of investigation winch is called for, as well by the exigency of the case as by the utter in utility of meeting it with half measures, or with mullet law, or with any other than a determina tion to lay the basis of public order and pros perity in a system of social equity and of poli tical justice. [MORNING POST.] French Papers to the Nth inst. and the Etone of Sunday reached Us last night by Ex-, press. They contain no political intelligence whatever. The Icing continued to spend a large portion of his time in hunting, whilst his Ministers were silently making ar rangement to meet their opponents at the opening of. the Chambers with a superior and irresistible force. This was not difficult to procure amongst the Deputies, but was generally considered un attainable in the tipper . Chamber without the creation of additional Peers. To this, it was said, the Government did not mean to have re ooursei and all that WLIS proposed was to secure the attefidance of the Princes of the Blood in order to swell the list of ministerial voters. But those Princes tire' so few in number that their attendance can make uo very sensi ble difference, and unleska more effective ex. pedient be adopted, it is doubtful whether the defeats sustained by the Aministration in that Chamber last Session may not be repeated. The only article of interest in these Papers is the fol lowing account of the ttourae taken by. the tre mendous hurricane which lately tilled both se-:e and land with trophies of igxvier. "It begaii," bays the Jot rtuif des lacbuls , "on the sl !eres o f Lnaland and Holland, and after having tossed up , sh a North S ea and strewed the northein coast of disttiand with wrecks, ,passed through Got- Itetibuitatul Stockholm, moving, in north-east direction, and on its way ; through Swede lay whole forests prostrate on the grould. In a moment it drove, the wate r s o f t the Gulph of Fi n l an d , rH Baltic up which terminat ing in a point at its eastern extremity, exlie. nienced a sudden and immense elevation of sur. tace. This course ? which forms a doable curve occasioned by sony high grpunds, presents an ex test of 370 or , 400 leagues which the hurricane traversed in 'a few minutes, perhaps in only one, for it is not yet exactly known at what precise period its fury was felt in the countries which suffered from its ravages. It is one of the most important phenomena ever recorded in the phy sical history of Europe." [N Fay 'flues.] The proofs of increasing prosperity in our ma nufacturing and mercantile industry, force them selves daily upon our notice. A. Meeting was held yesterday in the City, for the purpose of facilitating the speedy , and regular conveyance ofi goods from Manchester to London. It appears, that notwithstanding there are vans which travel those roads constantly; and which (we believe) are conducted with great propriety, still a de mand exists for additional means of carriage.— The silk trade, in particular, has improved so much of late, and the demand fur silk goods has been so incessant, that not only have the vans been fully loaded, and the Interior of the coaches devoted to this purpose, but par. cols have even been suspended under th e coaches ; and, after all, delays of several hours have occurred in the transmission of the silks, to the evident injury of commercial credit. At tuated by these considerations, the gentlemen above alluded to have agreed to subscribe a fund of 40,()001. for the establishment of new vans ; but of no hostility to the existing establishments, and still less with any view of trafficking in the s hares, which are in number 400, but simply from the necessity of the case. It is true that the Shares will afford a considerable interest, and may therefore be regarded as a desirable mode of investment for capital; so that, had they been brought out in the usual way on 'Change, they would probably have borne a large premium ; but as this is not the primary view of the enter prise, the shares arc to be apportioned solely among individuals concerned in the Cotton and Silk Trades ; and thus the profit will go hand in hand with the convenience. [TIIE PUBLIC: LEW.; int.] The evacuation of Spain is to he - effected, we find, in the manner that was originally arranged; and the troops who are to return to France have Already commenced their march in every direc tion. It is not true, as had lieeu reported, that Madrid Is ,to, have a French garrison,.and it is not a true that small Army of Observation is to he for Med near Vittoria. With the'eXCeption of the fortresses mentioned in the first instance, no 'part of the Spanish territory will he held in military possession 1116 French ; and though this arrangement is the result of the refractory 'spirit of the Spanish Government, it is clear that i.t , haS insPitedi tin latter with anxious presentiments. The leaders of th e ,Servilei' are' eVid6utly. alarmed. at the idea Of 'being left to.their own resources; and the stupid confidence, joined toethe blood-thirsty spirik.of their partisans, does not tend, .we should think, tp ,mitigate their fears. Their apprehensions, however,.have , net recommended moderate Coun cils; but, with an infatuation to which we can not at this. moment find a . parallel, unless.,44o Orange faction inireland afford it—they reject every other method of repressing the, discontents of. the nation,. hut such as, the spirit of perse cution suggests. The 'consequences of such , a system 'may he easily anticipated, particu lark, where misrule exhibits Itself in every vtit• riety of repulsive form ; and where private suf fering, from a dearth of productive employthent, losses in trade, and an entire stagnation of cow. mercial interests,. tends to aggravate the sense of the public calamity. All that is enlightened and useful in Spain may be said to ho arrayed in uncompromising hostility to the present tyranny; and as its vexations will increase with its feeble ness, on the: departure 'of the French, it may be easily foreseen how the nation will endure its hateful yoke. • [titOnNtNG, cutto'sict.E.] Nothing, in our opinion, reflects so much dis grace on our national character, as the cold and hard-hearted manner in which the rich of this Country contemplate theaufferings of the.miserable Italian exiles now starving among us. We refer our readers to an account under the head Man sion -house, which is quite heart,rending. Some of these unfortunate men posseSsed large estates in, their own country, which they have lost for ever in art attempt to improve. their native institutions. OneNoblernan of Lombardy, whose wealth was not I much:less than that of the Duke of Devonshire, is now; struggling to earn a scanty. subsistence by teaching. Shame on the English Nobility andGen tryy.manY of whom were gl a d to receive trospi ty from those unfortunate individuals ) , that they • staffer the cries of these famished wretches, day after day, contributing a small ; sum 'frorrt their' superfluities (and no large sum is required) to *two thorn from the death of famine. Good Ciodi. why have , men largo estates but aktrust for 'extraordinary 'calla of this nature if.nothing should be derie for these unfortunate men by the, rich, we woUld . recommend it t o those. Clergy men who'' are atliberty to!do so, toapp eul to the charity of their 'congregations. Much money is often Collected in this way, and. we. arc,, curs More urgent necessity never existed than the..pre-', sent. Do not let it 'be told to future times that; England was so . inaccesible to every generotis feeling, as to allow a liendrui. of distressed reigners; 'the victiirrzs of well intended, however unsuccessful, efforts in favour of their oppressed eountry,'to die the - death of .famine In our Areas. [MORNING `I4I3IALD.] It is" d fGcult to account, it any rational w a y, for the 63unia. which has lately beset peopl e o f embarking their capital in foreign loans anti spe culations, in prPfervnee to employing it in per. posesconnected with the' truck, manufacture, arts, COmmerce, and agriculture of their own country. simitar absurdity induces people to vioit foreign countries who have never seen their , own. Thousands of English, wa will venture to , say, have; since the peace, Crossed the Alps,. who never beheld Skiddaw or Helvellyn • and as many more have visited Paris, Itonle,and Naples, who never set foot in Edinburgh or Dublin. — Of late a new description of adventure has arisen, in the shape of Companies to work the various gold and silver mines of South America. With- Oet adverting to the fact that the 'possession of these mines appears never to have enriched the parent countries. Spain and Portugal, it must, we think, be clear to every one that such adventures must be more than doubly hazard ous as ;tong - es the question of South Ame rican independence continues in abeyance. — Were a civil war raging in this country, or were rt 'fdreign power laying claim to its domi ie it to be supposed that any number of persons from France, Holland, or Germany, would select that period for embarking their ca pital in the tin mines of Cornwall, the coal pits of Northumberland, or the lead mines of Che shire or South Wales. We would again ask, is there not plenty of room at home for the -employ ment of capital; and do not the very places We have just mentioned, as well as a hundred others, present an ample field for those who are enamour ed of under-ground speculations. The real secret, however, of all this, as most of our readers must be aware, is to be found in that arcanum of humbug the Stock Exchange. These foreign speculations present bubbles for the grown chil dren of 'Change-alley to blow, which fair, honest matters of trade at home would not afford. They who live by deception act wisely to work under ground, and those (if a pun may be excused), whose object it is to undermine one another, can not choose better scenes for their operation than the mines we are alluding to. Not one in a hun dred of the wiseacres who purchase shares in these Stock Exchange conundrums either care, or perhaps know, whether there,are, in fact, any such mines or places as they are dealing in. All that they look to. is the premium -and the discount, the thing itself being altogether, moonshine. We are glad to perceive, however, that a few home speculations are at length starting up, in the shape of canals, rail-roads, &c. These, if well digested, are calulated to be of infinite use and improvement to the country, irides pendent of the employment they will neces sarily give to capital and labour. Such pro jects, when of themselves feasible, should be encouraged by every possible means. Im portant as our foreign trade confessedly is, it is the domestic commerce of the country which is, and ever must be, our main support ; and. Go vernment cannot act more wisely than by encou raging and directing towards objects of improve.. ment at home, that surplus capital, so much of which is now • running to waste in channels equally hopeless aud.unworthy, of our regard. .''HE CiiteOF MISS 13LENKINSOPP. Bo W-s F. T.—Our readers will recollect the case of this lad who had esca_ped from a private mad-house , and w as pur sied to tonden by one of the officers of the establishment, person who made who applied to. Sit-IL BinN in on Thusday last for authority r t O ef h t O U l ß V ed i nd t s o orTa v b e' roth O e n r, I ti o ttltatdkeio,hesrirb Johnack, w ch hi a c y h m t a h n e , M la a te g iv is i t a ra r te or (tlseKifogfral.6alipitptrilirdPoiiradndMwrhiothisilltire'resitlent surgeon in the establishment in question, waited upon the sitting Magistrate, Mr. Mrwsitum., for the purpose of offering a public ex pl ana . tarnof the matters contained in the newspaper reports of Friday last. Thew gentlemen were accompanied by M r , Co o pe r , t h e proprietor of Debatt's, and not Knight's Hotel, 43 stated by mistake in the former report. Sir John Chapman sard,,ahat he was a partner in tha'Aq , lam from .which bliss Blenkinsopp had escaped, and he was well acquainted with all the circumstances of that lady's'aile. was t4c a,..ef d with even m ore t h an or di nary ki n d ness Site .was uaque.st i on ably , insane, and had b een iu'for a longtime. She in the,Asylum, 00 account of the p er f ect h arm l ess n e ss of 'h e r malady, an d the natant mildness of her disposition. Sir ,John hero mentioned the nature of the deldsion under which the unfortunate lady is said to labour, but we forbear; from motives of delicacy to the family, from repeating the desert!). tion given by the worthy 150iftht. He produced a letter to the Magistrate, which had been reeCiVed from Miss B.'s mo. titer, who is residing in a very distant, part of the country. Th at l a dy stated, that she had seen the statement relative to the, escape of her , daughter, and complained of the remissness of the establishment in suffering it. She spoke in the Most affe.c. tionate terns of her, "unhappy daughter." but'bore testimony in the most unequivocal manner to her insanity, and desired that her letter 'night he considered a sufficient authority for replacing her daughter in the Asylum. - She, added, that great as the distance was she would have come immediately to London, but that another beloved daughter was just at the point of death, and she (Mrs. B.) believed that her departure would accelerate the fatal event. A notion might have gone abroad that she bail, or was entitled to money, but that was, not the case; she never bad any property whatever. Sir John Chapman said, there wax one thing which he felt partial. laxly anxious to explain. It was stated that the certificate was signed by Dr. Pergusson . , and that no such name was to be found in the list of Physicians. It was true that that Gentle. man was not a member of the College, but he was a graduate of the University of Edinburgh.? and a most able and respect-' able man. By the act of' Parliament, the signature of one medical man was deemed sufficient to a certificate of insanity. John Chapman then begged it to be understood that he made no compaint of the publication of the case ; he was a friend to - publicity, and with regard to the establishment to which he had a share, he and his partners always courted in quiry. Not only Magistrates.; but any private individual, was perfectly welcome at ail times to inspect every part of it. He presumed, that after what had been mentioned as to the state of the young lad,y'S mind, there would be no objection to her .being taken back to the Asylum. Mr. Mi5t411171.4 said, he could give no order upon the sub ject, but he supposed the hotel keeper would offer no resistance to her removal. Mr. Cooper said, he certainly should not resist the authority of these gentlemen. He bad been actuated in the step he had taken only by,a Motive of bumanit3r, conceiving, as he did, that the lady was perfectly sane, a belief that had not been shaken by his subsequent conversations with her. Lle never saw a person more rational. .Sir J.,Chaprnan said, she was quite rational perhaps upon every subject but one, and upon that there could be no doubt of her insanity.. Butdid Mr. Cooper think her taking the pos tillion who drove her for a ghost a proof of sanity ? Cooper explained, that the postillion, not satisfied with what she gave him, followed her to her apartment, 'arid when she aimed round - and saw him, the started and said '" Oh ! 1 took you fora frhost, " and she then gave him a sovereign in stead of a shilling. , After some further conversation the gentlemen left the o ffi ce with the determination to convey Miss BlenkinsoPPhilek to the Lunatic Asylum. 4 r -.---;,-.- 7 ----.--- „, ALARM OP I' ILLE IN FLE ET•V ERCET.—About eight o'clock. last ev ening a. fire was discovered to have broken out in the Cheshire Cheese Tavern, in R ine-office-court, Fleet -street. From the closeness of tho and the aspect of th e flakes of fire which proceeded imp) a chim buildings, ney, added to the late calam i tous fires in the neighbourhood, the inhabitants, as well as the passengers, were for a tirneof to a s t a te of great consternatio n. Several the housekeepers in Wine Offige!court and vicinity we re so terri fi ed as to make preparations for mov ing their fannies and'preperty from'the up- Parent scene or devastation. .. ortunately, how. ever, St. Dunstan's, and several Firo•eilice en. ones, arrived in a few mingtes , and the supply of water was se quick and pfeotiful, that the fire was confined to that part of the premises where it first made its appearance. THE ARMY. Detachmen'ts belonging to the 3d (the Prince of Wales's), the 4th (Royal Irish), the stb (the Princess Charlotte of Wales's), the 7th (the Prince Royal's) Regiments of Dragoon Guards, the 9th (Light) Dragoons (Lancers), the 10th (the Prince of Wales's Own) Royal Regt. (Hussars), and the 15th (the King's) Regiment pf Light Dragoons (Hussars,) marched yesterday morning from Pimlico, for Liverpool, where they will arrive on the 20th instant, for the purpose of embarking fir Irfland. A Detachment belonging to the 2d Battalion of the 60th (the Duke of York's Own Rifhi Corps) marched, this morning, from Chatham, for Canterbury. The 90th regiment has marched from Chichester, on their route to Chatham, for embarkation. On Friday last a Board of General Officers was held at the Royal Military College at Sandhurst, 'when gentlemen cadets H. Hill, P. Despard, G. De Rottenbury, W. Lucas, and G. Cholmondeley obtained their recommendations; gentleman cadet H. Hill having passed the highest examination. The following are Copies of a Letter addressed to Lieutenant- Colonel Fane by the Magistrates of Chichester, on the 98th re giment leaving the Barracks of that City, and of his reply : " Chichester, Dec. 4, 1824. " San, Understanding that the 98th Regiment is about to leave this neighbourhood, we, the Magistrates of Chichester, beg leave to express to you, as its commanding Officer, our sincere- satisfaction at the very orderly conduct your men have invariably displayed whenever they have appeared within this jurisdiction, " If, during the formation of a new Regiment so close to a populous City, occasional irregularities had occurred, though they might have caused regret both to you and ourselves, yet they would have created no surprise ; but it will, we are sure, be as satisfactory to you to hear, as it is gratifying to us to say, that not a single case has happened requiring the interposition of the civil power, from the time the Corps was first embodied, up to the present hour. Whilst, however, we render this well.merited tribute of ap probation to the exemplary behaviour of your men, we arc fully sensible that the subordination and discipline it evinces, must be the result of extraordinary care and attention jour part, aided by the Officers and Non-commissioned Officers under your command. " Permit us to add our earnest hope that the Regiment may long enjoy the benefit of your exertions, and that the conduct of the members of it may, in all places, and under all circumstance, continue to reflect honour on their Commander and themselves. " We have the honour to be, Sir, " Your most obedient humble Servants, (Signed by all the :Magistrates.) " Fane, commanding 98th Regiment." " Chichester; Dec. 1824. 66 GENTl.tstxx-,—lt was with very pl ea si ng gra cation I received your letter, in which you have, in suc h arm and friendly terms, expressed yourselves of the orderly conduct of the soldiers of the Ofith Regiment from the period of their being embodied. This first tribute of approbation tendered to a young regiment, by the Civil Authorities, will, I trust, act as an incentive to their continuance of the same orderly conduct which they have hitherto shown. " I feel much gratified in being the medium of expression, of the pleasurable feelings experienced by every member of the regiment, on your sentiments being communicated to them, and beg to assure you of the interest felt by all for the prosperity of Chichester. " I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, " Your most obedient humble Servant, " M. FANE, commanding 90th Regt. " To the Magistrates of Chichester." ROYAL.
