They had only to do their duty to become .respectable ; but by ne glecting that duty they are become criminal end Intamons. Clceeto was never more correct than when lie said, i` Idleness is the tree ef utisfort MSC, and its fruits are curses ;” and Dr. FRANKLIN, in a more homely but squally excellent sentence, has said, " the ruili stream runs clear water, bit the stagnant pool is full of toads and filthiness."—By hiving taken sortie pains in my infinities, I find that several of the mistaken men who have lately dared the vengeance of the law, were not only able to earn the means of existence, but that some few of them were to expert in their business that they'could gain more in a week by their occupa tions as journeymen, than many respectable tradesmen who etubat k their capital in their un dertakings. The wife of a Carpenter, lately ap prehended, has declared that he could always ob tain employment if be chose to apply for it, and earn front 301. to 355. weekly, by which he once maintained his family in credit ; another, a cabi net-maker, of superior talents as a workman, never knew the want of work except front bit own idleness, and could earn, at least, 50s. weekly, like the carpenter, he abandoned the ho nest purstsits of industry, and followed the despe• tate fortunes of his leader ; a third, a shoemaker, has been represented to MC as a man capable of earning-2Z. per week, and similar authentic ac counts have been given of other detected traitors. The facts which this discovery elicited have struck m e very forcibly, as a means of pointing out to the mechanical and labouring classes generally, • not only the folly and danger of abandoning the boater porsoits of industry for the wild and mis chievons doctrines of the Reformers ; but also the little grotind they l:ave for cotoplaint against the Government of their Country, and even their su perior station, contrasted with that of the same class of persons in other Countries. As a short tit,6triatent detronstrative of this position may not be tinserviceable at this critical Hine, as tending to he that discontent in England is rather the result of a base attempt to poison the minds of the People than of that severe distress which is said to press upon all the operative classes, l• will, with your permission, offer it to ihe to..illUtrOw, in your Constitutional Paper.

A flew daily Jouinal has appeared herr, entitled Ue Conservator, LANA.RK ELECTION, FRIDAY, Ittm t cH 31. THE LORD PROVOST OP C;LASCOW AND OWEN, OF NEW LANARK. The whole of he inhabitants of this town hay ing unelaivocally declared themselves in favour of I.llr. Owen, and their Town Council having (by a mdjority of 13 against 7) chosen Mr. Monteith as their Delegate, we ,sll looked with anxious ex pectation to the events of to-day. Although the morning was rainy, a considerable body of men from Old Lanark went down with banners and music to Mr. Owen's residence (Braxfield), and drew him and the Linlithgow Delegate, and his friend, in a carriage. up to the town. Up on t h e i r reaching the Council-room, ‘T hich can contain but few persons, a general exclamation of "Open Court"—" Freedom of Election"—and "Adjourn to the Church," came front all parts of the crowd. En order that the business of the day might pro ceed peaceably, the Delegates removed to the Elders' seat, and the rest of the Church was filled by the inhabitants. Mr. Owen's entrance was greeted wi:h loud applause, but Provost Mon teith was received amidst groans and hisses. The greatest order was, however,immediately establish ed, and the proceedings went on without any in terruption except that occasioned by the zati•.fac tion demonstrated when the Delegate from Lin lithgow voted for Mr. Owen, and the dissatisfac tion expressed at Provost Monteith's being the choice of the Selkirk, Peebles, and Lanark De legates. %Viten Mr. Monteith was declared duly:elected, the loudest disapprobation was testified. He at tempted to speak, but could not he beard nlitil Mr. Owen had obtained silence for him. :loth Gentlemen then addresLed the assembly. The meeting quietly broke up. Nlr. Owen went home privately, having declined the houotas which the people of Liill9l - k were desitons of paying him on his return'; but the Gentlemen lion) LAitligow (in the intercv of Mr. Owen) were drawn through the town in their cart iige, and to the village of New I, tuArk nod to Ilrax field, by a body of the inhabitants. Mr. Monteith tvAs escorted from the Church to the Inn by the Sheriff of the County, followed by ft crowd hissing him. The Yeomanry had r e ceived urdets to be. in readiness.

Those of Saturday, which were due this morning, have not arrived. We give ex tracts in another Column. It is said that the Committee of the Chamber of Deputies ap pointed to consider the new Election Projet have decided upon proposing its rejection, with the exception of four or five articles which it is suggested nv,ly be added to the existing law. It has already been stated as a report that the projet is to be withdrawn, and another proposed to the Chamber tr< I'eers, and the Journal des Debuts, which mentions the above circumstance, re-asserts as a tnltter of general belief that the projet is to he withdrawn. The trial of LOtJVCL will, it is reported, cons cience on Monday next. The Madrid accounts, which are of the 3d inst., contain little of importance. The General-in- Chief, O'lloNo.ru, has, it appears, dispersed the army . of Andalusia, by sending to different guar- tors, at a distance from each other, the regiments of vsliich it was composed. The Chamber of Peers assembled on Thurs day, but transacted no business of importance. The Chamber of Deputies, after hearing a Report from the Committee of Petitions, proceeded in ate discussion of the Financial :accounts, which was again adjourned till Friday. Since writing the above, we received, at a late hoqr this dt,y, the Paris Papers of Saturday last. The Chamber of Deputies were still occupied on Friday with the never-ending discussion of the financial accounts, which was again adjourned till Saturday. Nothing further is said in them respecting the Election Projet.—The following are extracts : " Peals, APRIL 15.—The King yesterday gave a private audience to Marshal the Duke de Vainly, and transacted business with the Baron Pasquier and the Duke de Richelieu. His Ma jesty continues to suffer from the gout. FIVE PER CENTS. Friday DRFBEKED STOCK. Of the 22d Marco 18'20, BB f. 30 c. " IRON, APRIL S.—The letters from Madrid, Valencia, and Seville, which arrived to-day, con tain nothing of importance. No new event had disturbed the public tranquillity, but poli:ical clubs wete forming every where. " Letters from Cadiz, of the 24th, state, that every thing was tranquil, and that the elections commenced on the 22(1. There existed, how ever, some symptons of exaTeration. %%lien the Regiments of the Garrison of Cadiz, which had taken pert in the events of the ' 10th, arrived at Port Saiot Mary, the troops who were there took arms to receive them, and loudly blaincd-them for their conduct. The soldiers of these corps wet e di,armed, and marched, bare tooted, to the little village of Chipona, where they were to remain tiil further orders." Pipers arrivcd ttils morning to the I9:11 March. Extract of a Ettter from on board the Macedonian, Dec. 2.5. " We arrived on the S It at Lima. We ex pected from Lord COCURANCS character that he would attempt to prevent onr breaking his blockade of that port. Indeed he said, that no man of war, of any nation, should piss him.— Determined to support the character of our fl.ig, and conscious of our duty, in the protection of Atitericin commerce„ we lett ValpAraho with two American Supercargoes on board, whose business !rd then] thither, and who drpeoded on our protection to enter the port. Every necessary preparation was made to battle the watch with the English reneptdo provided be interrupted our course; o;I the harbour we met part of the CbiHai! fleet, Gousi*ting Uf tha O'Higirut, 44, oommanded by COCHRANE in person, the Inde' pendeocia, commanded by Captain FOSTER ; these two ship' are manned by English and Americans , and outlaws of all nations. Besides, there were two gun-brigs of 16 guns in sight. We beat to quarters, and cleared illsift for action ; the [WO ships bore down upon us, and asked %mho we were; alter answering and being answered several ques• tines, we filled away, and soon anchored in Callao Labour, the Port of Lima." _ Tart Quest4.--:-There we .s e report strongly pT• vslent this Inoining in the City, said to have cotev from Dover, which steted the arrival Of Talg. QUEE' at Calais, preparatory to her return t ° this country. We give not the least credit to tbis report ,• nor can we conceive for what reason such rumours are put into circulation. .It seems that a vast number of' persons bad assembled on DOT" Cliff, in expect atiou of her arrival. The prohibition of the CHIEF JUSTICE egetinst publishing the 'Dials of the State Prisoners 0 3 the whole are over, maniteits a due regard for justice, and prevents those parti.►l impressions which might be made upon the People it the pro-. ceedings were detailed every day. Besides, tho Reports are likely to be more accurate, if pro perly revised, and carefully presented to the PeoplC at large. , The attention of all Europe is naturally di' rested towards Spain, and though it is impossible to conjecture what may be the ultimate effect of the new order of things in that Country, yet the probability is, that they are not likely to secure the stability of the Throne, or contribute to the happiness of the People. The number of (lista(' fected persons who have been permitted to return to the Country, and who, during their absence, employed themselves in attemptiug to bring the KING into contempt, and to overthriof the Government, is a moat alarming measure. The same folly has been committed in France, ana hence the existence of the Throne seems to de' pend on the life of the present amiable Monarch/ who naturally desires " peace in his time," -but who certainly, in suffering so many revolittionerl characters to return, has rendered it vety that Monarchy will survive him. The same con' sequences, if not worse, may be expected ill Spain ; but there the Monarch is not to blame , because the prevailing party, no doubt, in' sisted on the impolitic toleration. it is. I+ o justice to the Due de SAN CARLOS, WII 9 beS been some time Ambassador in this Country, to state that his conduct has been exemplary, and that he has supported the important situatint" which he held with suitable dignity, and w ithout ostentation. He is, we understand, a Fauvist' by birth, but of course was selected for the hit. 4 office on account of his talents, knowledge, so d loyalty. He will carry with him, on his return to Spain, the respect and esteem of the Brititb Government and People, and we sincerely hue that his counsels may contribute to the aecuritl of the Throne, and the welfare of the Country. Advises have been received from Ceylon to the 19th of November. The Criminal Session of th 6 Supreme Court at Ceylon commenced at Columb a on the 17th November. JAMES FARREL, rsi Collector of the District at Fangalla, was tried for the murder of a native, and most fully an clearly acquitted. The Hon. HENRY BYRNE, Poisne•Justice, presides at this Court.
