TUE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, Dec. 7. [narristt elms.] The royal order for placing on the retired list all the French Generals, who having attained the age of fifty years are entitled to the full pension, has excited a strong sensation in the political circles of Paris. France is the only country in Europe in which there is a fixed term beyond which, without any reference to their wishes or ability, no military officer is permitted to remain in the service of the State. The leave to retire pit fifty years of age was originally intended as a beim to those who might, for particular reasons, desire to avail themselves, of it : but it is now con verted by the Ministry into an oppressive engine to drive from the army all the veterans who do not enjoy their favour. It will be in vain that Charles X. may continue to compliment the military by a visit to the Invalids, or the gift of a few crosses of honour, if he suffer his Ministers, by one sudden blow, to strike off sixty Generals from the list of active service. Our Correspondent, whose letter on this subject will be read with peculiar interest, gives an account of some other plans, which it is understood, in the best-in formed society, M. de Villele has formed for the maintenance of his power. The measures he is persuading his Sovereign to sanction, in spite of - the King's better judgment and the strenuous opposition of the Dauphin seem to show, that he possesses some extraordinary influence over the Royal judgment, not likely, we think, soon to give way to any force that can be marshalled against him. lie has firmly withstood the shock resulting from the accession of the new Mo. xiarch, and it. is not probable that the Chem -her of Deputies will declare against him, unless by the violence of his schemes to retain office lie should raise too general a storm of public in dignation. We can conceive no measure so ill judged in that point of view as this, by which sixty of the most distinguished Generals of the French army are, by a single stroke of the pen, absolutely dismissed into retirement. In one re spect, perhaps, it may be acceptable to the Eoyalists. Hardly one Officer, who acquired eminence during the duys of the Republic, will now remain In the ranks that march under the white flag. Whether it be wise or just to ma nifest this distrust of the soldiers of the Re volution we will not now discuss ; but we cannot refrain from expressing our disapprobation of an arbitrary act, utterly irreconcilable with our 11000113 of what is fairly and honestly due to all public servants. The measure, we understand, is to be carried into execution in a mode worthy of the design with which it was conceived. [MORNING HERALD.] It appears another of our Colonial Governors is about being removed from his Government, but for what reason we are not yet aware of— viz. Major-Gen. Sir Thomas Brisbane, K. C. B. and to be relieved by Major-General Darling. The Commander of our Forces in the West Indies and Governor of Barhadoes, Lieutenant- General Sir Henry Warde, K. C. B. is expected daily in England on leave of absence, which leave is generally tanta►nuunt to a resignation on the Officer's part.—(lbid.) [THE TIMES.] • We inserted an article from a correspondent yesterday, on the subject of a protest tendered too clergyman of the Church of England, by a couple about to be married, against the cere. Many eccording to which the clergyman was bound by his duty and solemn obligation to per. form the rite. The manner in which we have here stated the case will show our opinion upon it. If the clergyman had previously promised to accept the protest, he had inad vertently entered into an improper engage. ritent, from the infraction of which, how ever, the party with whom the engagement was made could receive no damage ; for what good could this protest do them, unless the de gradation of the parish priest were a good to those who were married by him ? What 'have the Clergy of the Established Church to do with protests of this nature ? Or where is the accept ance of them enjoined as a part of their duty ? It is not optional with tl►e►n to use or to omit a pert of any of the Church ceremonies. They pledge themselves, and are solemnly bound at their ordination, " to. comply with the Liturgy ►' of the Church of England ; their hands, there fore, are tied ; and it seems excessively foolish to pester them with protests h► an affair to tally beyond their controol. It would be quite as rational in the clergyman to give the couple a protest on account of their faith, as for them to give him one on account of a rite contained in the Book of Common Prayer. Indeed, it appears to us ) that if a Dissenting couple must tender a protest on account of .their,being married in the church, and according; to its ritual, .the minister of their own' Dissenting congregation is the pro. per person to whom the ;protest should .be ten. tiered, and by whom' it should be received ; for by such it process, he learns awl is assured, that though this portion of his dock may seem to quit hire nu the most important occasion of their lives, it is only beCause the existing law of the land forces them, and that he is not therefore to es teem them as renegades or deserters, [MORNING POST.] We received last. night French Papers to the sth inst. and the Etoile of Sunday. Their con u•ots are of less than usual importance. There ire letters from Madrid nhich say, that if the . Infants of Spain postpone or abandon their inten tion of is [[airing to Naples and Portugal, it i►s on account of the King's illness, whiCh had assumed a very grave character. The Council of Castile had been soddenly summoned, and the matter was deemed of such importance that even the sobers who were ill had rt ceived orders to at tend.. Some seemed to imagine that the rho twittery danger which lately threatened the fife of rerdinand'had been the cause of this extraor. ordinary meeting ; but others state that the object in view was a fresh application to the 'French' Government, not to prevent the evacuation, as it had been already partly carried into effect, but to augment the number of the places which should remain occupied, and to leave garrisons in the cities of Saragossa and Malaga, so as to make the French force in Spain twenty-five thousand men. The only thing, however, which had transpired with any degree of certainty, was the fact that an express had been sent off to Paris with dispatches immediately after the breaking un of the Council. The number of Con stitutional ' bands rising in different parts of the country was still increasing, and as they were well armed, much alarm was felt by the friends of the present system lest they should grow , too strong to be put down, when the French should have left Ferdinand and his Ministers to support themselves as they could. [NEW TIMES.] Yesterday the usual expresses were received from Paris with accounts to Saturday evening. The private letters (which, as well as the papers, contain very little of political interest) notice a considerable improvement in the French Funds, which closed for Money at 101 f. 6.5 c., and were subsequently purchased at 102 f. 10c. to 15c. fur the Account. The above information gave an impulse yesterday to the British Funds, Consols closing at 9548 for the Ac count; as also to the Continental Securities, which were much higher than on Saturday. The French Itentes were freely purchased at 102 f. ; and the Scrip of the last Loan advanced to 13.1 premium ; the Scrip of the last Neapolitan Loan (the letters from Paris stating a considerable de mand for this Stock), which had been previously at a very small premium, advanced to 18 per cent. Danish Bonds were (including the dividend) 1041, and Prussian Bonds 102. The South American Securities, in common with almost every descrip tion of funded property were higher in price.— In the New Mining Shares the prices remain without alteration. A ❑ew company for the working of certain mines, in the neighbourhood of Buenos Ayres, has been talked of for some days, and will, it is expected, be brought out this day, under the management of Messrs. Hut lett, Brothers, and Co. Tine shares were reported yesterday to bear a premium of from 10 to 11 per cent. in anticipation. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The commerce of England is rapidly assuming a more extended character, and her vast capital is penetrating into the most distant quarters for employment. Joint Stock Companies are form ing for the most extensive operations, and the experience of the past shews that, under able ma nagement, no doubt can be entertained of the success of their undertakings. The Charter of the Bank of England, however, stands in the way of Joint Stock Banks in England, from which the inhabitants of Scotland have reached such vast advantages. The monopoly of Banking, however, in England, will soon yield to the enlightened commercial operations of this truly new era in human affairs. The Rio de la Plata Associa tion for working the Mines of Buenos Ayres, has ut length been formed. The capital to be em ployed amounts to one million sterling, and, if necessary, it may be increased. It is divided into ten thousand shares of one hundred pounds each. The Directors maintain the highest sta tion in the City of London, and every confidence may be reposed in their knowledge of the prin ciples of commerce. A Joint Stock Bank has been formed for Ireland ; and if the Local Di rectors be held responsible for their conduct to the extent of their private property, the Asso ciation will receive any assistance from Capi talists, and whilst it will be of great importance to Ireland, it cannot fail to yield a fair return to its proprietors. [Tilt: PUBLIC LEDGER.] The evacuation'of Spain by the French is be ginning to produce those results which have been anticipated by every enlightened man, and wished for by every honest man. A systematic resist. ance to her horrid and incorrigible tyranny has, it is said, already manifested itself. in several parts of that unfortunate kingdom ; and we hail it with satisfaction, because it is the only re medy, though a bitter one, for her intolerable evils. No doubt there may be much exagge ration in the present accounts, as they re spect the number and strength of the Consti tutional bands ; but the time will come when they will be formidatle enough to procure the triumph of their cause, and an end to the misery of the nation. The wrongs of Spain are a re proach to the rest of Eueope ; and the present Monarch ' of France has set a noble example, by showing an abhorrence of the misrule that has caused them. Above all others, the friends of Monarch should exert themselves to put down that misrule, for it is. a plague-spot on their favourite system ; and how can they ,hopO to acquire proselytes, whilst such a practical illustration of• their principles stares every. one in the face. The private 'accounts front Paris contain two reports, which are not even alliided to in the' Public Journals. In the first place it is stated that th e French Go vernment is negociating a T reaty o f C ommerce with Hayti, which, in other words, is recognizing her independence. This rumour is very probable, because it is agreeable to the general policy of the French Cabinet ; whilst it would he import ant in another sense, by serving to explain the sentiments of that Cabinet wart respect to the gteat question o f South American lndependence. If France admit the principle, where het own inte rests or pride no at stake , she will shew the less "regard fur such objections to it on the part of an other Power. At the . sam e 011ie 'she must be anxious that so portentous a r put (1) e it, and ) queition' should be having loosened her 'connection us ith Spain, she will steal a March upon us, if ive care, to acknowledgineY t take do nu the political existence of the New Americ an States: Another report 'says, that the French * Government has of late manifested mud) sympathy in favour of the Greeks; and inneed' the tone of all the French Youripals correspond with this rumour: It has even said, that the Cabinet of the Tuileries has expressed a willingness to concur with any other Power, in measures for securing the inde pendence of that people. As nothing would be more acceptable to the French in general, it is not improbable but that their rulers have shewn such a disposition. Besides the popularity of the act, it has the recommendation of the soundest policy ; for it is evident that the Ottoman Em pire is falling rapidly to pieces; and to fill up the vacuum that it will leave, or rather prevent Russia from filling it, there is only one safe method, and that is to plant the Cross, or the standard of the Greeks, where the Crescent has so long shed its barbarous influence. PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. ( Prom the Dublin Star, Nov. 26.) , PROTESTANVISM AND THE RENT. A letter was read at the Meeting of the " As sociation" on Wednesday, from a Roman Catholic Bishop who dates from Letterkenny. In this communication, the Reverend, or Right Reverend Gentleman (for we are not versed in the language of titular courtesy) asserts, that " he had been ire quently urged, and most earnestly solicited," by certain " beral and enlightened Protestants and Presbyterians" of his, diocess, to give his public sanction to the collection of the Rent. We do not intend to cast a shadow of doubt on the assertion of the Bishop of Letterkenny,—or by whatever name his dio cess may be designated—but we most certainly should wish to be informed what advantages the " liberal and en lightened " persons alluded to, can prose to themselves, and to their fello w -p ro f e tssors of 'Protestant po ism, or of Pres byterianism, from the objects contemplated by the Rent Faction. We should like to know, of what grievances and oppressions they complain, to which the Rent is to be ap plied as the engine of deliverance. In the name of Heaven, can any Protestant, or Presbyterian, who is really such by con viction, he blind to the views of the Faction now struggling for political and religious ascendancy ? Cin they be so besotted as not to understand the more than hints which have been so bountifully thrown out at Bible discussions,-at aggregate meet ings, and at every sitting of the Association P. Are they callous to the aspersions cast upon their Religion —are they deaf to the charges of Protestant oppression, and blind to the crime of Proselytism, with which they, in common with their brethren, are accused ? Are they ignorant that, in the language of these regenerators of Ireland, Protestant, Orangeman, and Murderer are synonymous ! The persons alluded to, if the fact be cor rectly stated, must either be grossly ignorant of the most or dinary transactions now of every day occurrence in Ireland ; they must be in a state of intimidation ; or they must have been most egregiously imposed upon by the smooth chicanery of the holy plyfers of the Rent system ! The politicalintriguers of the Association are determined to avail themselves of the acknowledged talents of Mr. Macdon nell, as their London agent—but is it not obvious that, on a reli gious score, lie is viewed with suspicion ? Mr. O'Reilly, still, at the last Meeting, opposed that person's appointment—Mr. O'Reilley is an orator, and stood up to state the grounds of his opposition; but it is the extreme of' filly to suppose that the opposition was confined to himself. Father Keogh, would appear, attended the Wednesday's meeting for the express piss pose of giving his opinion that it was a crane in Mr. Alacdon nell to have married a Protestant wife ! His appointment, was, nevertheless, carried on the grounds of his present useful ness. Let, however, the Romisli Church get the ascendancy for which it is striving, and we should then see what would be the reward of these Protestants and Presbyterians of Letter kenny, " liberal and enlightened" as they are now stated to be, and we should be much deceived if the Protestant taint of Mr. E. Maetionnell tended to enhance the merit of his services ! FOR THE SUN. EI)DA. FABLE IX.-Of the Cilia that arc in Maven. o d u to re l l i n a h 7 ; l ; " b m u n t d t e e r li MR.

In one of them, dlifheins by name, dwell luminous genii, but those that are dark dwell beneath the earth, and differ from the former in appearance, an d s till more by their actions. The luminous genii are brighter than the sun ; but the dark ones are blacker than pitch. In these regions stands a city of beauty equal to ours ; and ano ther, of width the walls, the pillars, and the in terior are of gold, while the roof is of silver. Here, also, may he seen the city, called the Heavenly Mount, situated near the frontier, on the spot where the bridge of the Gods meets the heavens. The vast cities of Odin are built wholly of pure silver, and in it are placed the royal thrones called The Terror of Nations. When seated on it, the Universal Father can view at Once all the regions of the earth. But at the furthest end of the heavens, towards the south, stands the most beautiful of all the celes tial cities ; and its name is Gimle. It is more resplendant than the sun itself, and will subsist ever; when both the heavens and the earth shall be no more; and in it upright and good men shall dwell for ever. The pomn of the Voluspa mentions this place in these wortls:— " Well do I knew that there stands in the city of Gunk a palace higher than the sun, and c o . vered with gold. Ther e virtuous men s hall dwell and live in peace and happiness for ever." Gangler asked : But who shall save this city on the day when a horrid flame shall consume the heavens and the earth ?—llar replies : We have been informed that towards the South there is another heaven higher than the first, of which the name is Light Blue; and above this last a third, still more elevated, called The Immense. In this heaven we believe this city of Ginde must stand.; but at present none but the luminous genii dwell there. The Journal du Commerce of the City of Lyons relates the following instance of the danger which - indiscreet individuals are exposed to who are so imprudent as to relate in public inns that they ar e h earears o f l arge mums of money, or that they are oth erw i se entruste d w i th valua bl e e ff e cts;—.A few days ago a travelling LacC Merchant, in an inn at Cr en ay, 1: 7 enay, n the )epartment of 'lsera, sheWed'to who tOok up his quarters some apparently ,fellow travellers at. ilia inn in tptestion a bind':;- of bank tunes, to the value of 5090,t,r2146 (4bout 2001. sterling), as also h'quitntit,y of valuable 'fade, telling them that in the course of' the day he was going into the neighbouring Commune of Saint George. .

The discovery was made in s singular way. • He had been-at tacked and cut by a shurp weapon, which had severed u paru of his hat. This piece of hat was picked up by a countryman, who on examining it found it contained a portion of human skull. Suspicion was awakened, and after making due search, the body of. the unfortunate man 4sat; found buried not far from the spot. The Police is very vigilant after the offenders, and it is thought they cannot romstin long concealed. ODD MIXTURE.--.A, gentleman travel l ing in Mecklenburg, saw at the post .house at New, Stargard the following curious fact :—After dinner, the landlord placed on the floor a large, dish of soup, and gave a loud whistle ; ionne. diately there came into the room a mastiff, a fine Angora cat, an old raven, and a remarkable large rat with a bell about its neck. These four ani mals went together to the dish, fed peaceably, after which the dog, cat, and rat lay' before the Gre s while the raven hopped about the room. FOR THE SUN. FISHERIES. MR. EDlTOR—ThroughtlTe medium of your valuable Journal, I wish to call the attention of all Members of Parliament to a Work lately written by Mr. CORNISH, on the Salmon Fishe ries. Mr. Ccitustsn has entered so fully into the subjects connected with the Salmon Fisheries, that it would be presumption in any one to offer further remarks thereon. It is therefore to be hoped that a wide circulation of that book will be the means of opening the eyes of those persons who may have been cheated out of their rights by the usurpation of those violaters of the Law, who, under feudal tenures, claim privileges both con trary to Acts of Parliament and to the Statute Law. Prescription is their claim, a term in some cases synonimous with robbery. Can common sense be so gulled as to give in to the vulgar prejudice that a man unjustly deprived of a right, provided he acquiesces in the same for a term of years sufficient to establish a prescription, has no re medy at Law, but must submit to the loss ? This doctrine might have held good in those times when the stronger party oppressed the weaker ; but thank God, for those who can afford to pay for Law, justice may be obtained. Mr. CORNISH has, at the end of his Treatise, quoted sufficient passages from the Statute Law with respect to the preservation, &c. of salmon. From Magna Charta down to the reign of George the Third, Acts of Parliament have passed confirming those heretofore enacted, and providing, by new Acts, for the better preservation and protection of fishe ries. All locks and weirs are-prohibited ; nets that are not according to Law are also forbidden ; but how the Gentlemen of England, so tenacious of all rights with respect to their lands, could have so easily resigned their aquatic privileges, is matter of surprise. All locks, weirs, and dams, are in dictable us public nuisances, provided they pre vent the free access of salmon at all times up and down a river. No term of prescription can le galize such encroachments, nor can Acts of Par liament be invalidated on the grounds of pre scription. It is to be hoped that associations , will be formed which will lighten the expellees of litigating those abuses. Let Gentlemen unite together, and they will put down all locks, weirs, and other destructive engines used in the methods employed for taking salmon. .Dec 3. THE WEATHER.

A 2 1 1 2i 01 8 5. 30 Tile month has been remarkably windy and 'wet, it having rained, more or less, on 22 days ' a nd blown hard on 17 days. From the humid and electrical state of the air, the mean temperature is high for the season, and .nearly two degrees higher than the mean of November for many years . past ; nor has the thermometer been so low by two degrees as it was last month. The maximum temperature has occurred on six different nights, which is remarkable for the number. This seems to happen on the approach of rain and wind from the westward, which tend to raise the thermometer several degrees, end to property on shore so uthern make some pan of the night warmer than any part of the clay,. arising no doubt from the electrical state of the con densing vapours. The temperature of spring water has decreased only two. fifths of a degree this month.

This copious fall in so short a time had brought down the barometer to 28.47 inches, the lowest pressure that has yet . occurred - this year, and so weakened the elasticity, of the atmosphere, as to cause a ready induction or the furious storm. Here the gale came on at 10 P.m. in the night of the 22d, frotn due soilth, and gradually increased till four A.X. the following morning, when distress guns were heard firing along the coast. From this time till nine o'clock it blew a Perfect hurricane from S.S.W., which was equal 'in strength' to that on the 4th and sth of March, 1818. It was not only the means of many trading vessels part ig their cables at Spithea4., and running on the shores of Gosport and Portsmouth, but drove several men of war 'from their Moorings in the harbour:' The sea broke so heavily over the head); that it inundated Many of the lower, parts of Ports. mouth, Portsca, and Stoke's Bay Alarsh. At noon the tide rose to Within two inches of the height it attained in March 1818; the barometer was nearly at the same attitude as it weather), and the wind in the same direction ; but, had tjle wind not fortunately veered round 4 Or 5 points' to the r west, arid moderated 'at' the flowing of the tide,' the water would have been 'considerably higher. From 7 till 11, c.r.t.; the appearnce of the sea arid air was wild and awful; the former running to an unusal height belbre the retorn oldie tide—the latter so dense and murky as to contract the view ton short distance. The frequently break. ing of the sea over the beach—the hollow sounds of the wind in the holds of the vessels that were driven on shore, its howlings, through the rigging and the leafless trees—the deafening noise of the clashitig elements—the ungovernable state of the vessels in the act of driving—tile extreme anxiety, of those who were. stranded for the safety, of their lives through a tremendous' siirf -:-the falling of chimmes—and the almoit impossibility of epee._ tutors keeping. on theirfeet in the storm, were scenes that un presied reflecting minds with terrific emotions, and pointed out the feeble efforts of man ageing the coni•ulsiont of nature. • The atmospheric and meteoric phenomena that have come within our observation this month, are one parhelion, one farm selene, two solar and two lunar_ halos, three meteors, two double rainbows, lightning and thunder in the evening of the 21st, six slight hoatfrosts in the. nights, and eevenYeen gales of wind, or days on which they have prevailed, namety—one from the E. three from S. seven from.S.W. two from W. and fog fro m N.W. • The planet Georgina' Sidus is now visible at dark in clear weather, about one degree north of Mars.
