it TLIE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, July 23. (MORNING ERA r.n.l Tuesday's Paris Papers, with the Etaile, dated Wednesday, arrived last night. The Etoile has . once more South Amerivan intelligence from Madrid. According to this news, Bolivar, com pletely diseomfitted by the RoyalistS,, had atm cloned Peru altogether, anti made the best of his way to the Colombian territory. In order to re. piove any doubts or suspicions of this intelligence, .the - French Journal gravely declares that it is derived from eye-Witnesses ; but as these letters are no‘ referred to—which.might afford ground of .cavil against their evidence—all objection is put ar► end to by the declaration that the account of the defeat of Bolivar has been published in the Madrid Gazette!!. There is but little else worth particular notice in these papers. The discussion of. the Budget still continued in the Chamber of Deputies, with, as usual a strong tide in support o'l4 Minister. [Nov TIMES.] We are informed that another attachment was yesterday laid upon the moneys raised for the ColombitmGovernment in the hands of the con. tractors. This attachment differs from the former, inasmuch as the individuals constituting the Go, vernment are now sued, instead of the" Govern. merit of Colombia"—no such Government,or any other of the South American States, being re.. cognized in our Courts of Law. It is now con tended that the individuals above alluded to are responsible, like any other individuals, for con tracts entered into by them, or by their agents duly authorised. It is asserted that debts to a large amount have been incurred by such agents ; and the question will speedily be determined as to the liability of the individuals sued. We understand that the parties included in the' pro cess hie—Simon Bolivar, F. P. Santander, Jose M. Strabo, P. Goal, D. B. Urbanego, J. M. Castello, and P. B. Mendez. The claim is made by,a Mr. Walton. D4011:2•11t40 CURONICLL) Ass 'article under the head of Mentz, or Mayence, 13th July, which appeared first in a Frankfort Journal, and was thence copied Into the Paris Journals (see extracts from the Etoik iu ;The Chronicleof yesterday ), has created a con. sidera hie sensation. It stated some truths, which could not fail to be very unpalatable to the Wore liberal part of the Administration. The dispatching Count Munster to Johannisberg, , charged with a negociation, having for object the sending a Hanoverian force to Portugal, is repre. rented as most glorious for Prince Mkternich. " By this step," it is said, " the English Government does homage to the conservative principles of the Oply Alliance, and implicitly recognizes the right of interference which it so - decidedly con. Amnia doing the 150anish..war." NOthing can be.more true, and It is cutting, precisely because itis . true. No one can doubt whence this pnra- Iltraiilt issued ; :or whence the contradiction is. sued which the poor Frankfort Journalist has been obliged to insert, (see Extracts from the . Paris Papers in The Chronicle of this day), after the original article, had, served its purpose.— " We'll re within-lied," says the Gazelle of Frank fl4rl, " to declare,, that the article dated Mayence, July, 13, in our No. of the 15th ofJuly, contains wily Abe and fictitious statements." False and fictitious statements ! The Julse and fictitious statements are the consequences drawn from the embassy of Count Munster, that the English Government thereby does homage to the comer online principles, of the Holy, dilliunce. Why the contradiction, instead of serving as an antidote to the original article, only gives en additional sting to it. Prince Metternich knew very well, that—the inference drawn from the presence of Count Minister, at Johannisberg, sins the only Wo'f6 which any man of common sense could draw, and the contradiction is something a-kin to Lord Peter's attempt to palm a brown loaf en his brothers for excellent mutton. [monstrin row.] French Papers to the 21st instant, and the Eloild of Wednesday, reached us last , " t by iixpress.

Were not the Session so near its close, the attempt might be unavailing ; but as he is soo (CI carry the Budget through the Lower Hewn., and the Peers Cannot possibly refuse the sums necesiary for the public service, the promo. gittion will arrive in time to save him.

[THE nstes.i The paragraph in the Doile, which we noticed yesterday more for amusement than as consider ing it entitled to any serious notice, has drawn forth long and laboured lucubratious from some of our cotemporaries. In our judgment, the .Toile and its Ultra neighbours of Germany are work ing to very little purpose, when they fancy that the English nation, whatever may be the bias of the King's Ministers, will suffer itself, under any pretext, to be involved in the meshes of the Holy Alliance. We long since published intelligence conveyed to us, that in all probability no troops under the controul of this Government, whether British or Hanoverian, would be sent to Lisbon, to act under the orders of King John. The dispatch of a naval armament, reinforced by marines, few Englishmen, observers of the course of foreign politics, will object to, inasmuch as the establishment of our gallant navy is rather perhaps below the level of the times, than open to censure for extravagance. But with regard to these Ultra Royalist speculations concerning the mission of Count Munster to Prince Metternich's diplomatic circle at Johannisberg, the first idea of collecting Hanoverian troops for a voyage of interference, no matter on what side of the ques tion, with the politics of a distant Power, did no doubt appear to have placed the Count and the German Cabinet of George IV. in a pitiable sort of dilemma. If the consent of that non descript, the Germanic Diet, were, by its constitution, indispensable to the legality of the proposed armament issuing from a Ger man State (and the Diet, of course, would be ready enough to set up such a pretension), it is obvious that Prince Metternich and the rest of the legitimates would clog their acquiescence with conditions tending to give the Anglo- Hanoverian expedition to Portugal a colouring favourable to the views of the Holy Alliance. — How, in case of the Hanoverian troops being sent, our Government could manage to force upon the world their own construction of the measure, in opposition to that of the Austrian Minister, we have yet to learn. Prince Metter nich would say—l sanction your enterprize, be cause it is a virtual recognition of the doctrines of the Holy Alliance. Mr. Canning cannot ac cept the authority so expressed, seed off the troops, and then turn round upon Europe—" I " have dispatched an army to Portugal, but it is " not in confederacy with the Holy Alliance or " its principles"—that would be a breach of faith to the Alliance. To keep faith with them, on the other hand, he must break it to the British nation : so, with regard to this Hanove rian army, we suspect that, as Puff' describes it, Ministers may have felt themselves " at a dead lock." The grand hope is, that they will follow throughout, the advice which, from the first, we ventured to offer them—namely, to steer clear of the trap which had been laid for them, and, ex cept as a preventive of invasion from other quartet'', to shun, as. they, would disgrace itself, the proposed occupation of Portugal. [BRITISH PRESS.) We have received advices from Corfu to the 21st of June, bringing us important intelligence with respect to the lodgement of the Greek Loan at Zante. On the I gilt inst. a Proclama tion was issued by the lonian Senate, declaring the decree of the Greek Government, fur depo siting money within the lonian territory, to by a violation of the neutrality which it was their de termination to maintain. The lonian Government will not suffer its shores to be used us a depot for money or warlike stores by either of the con tending parties, and it denounces the full penalty of the existing laws against such of its subjects as s h a ll allow the loan to be deposited with them. If the offenders be aliens, they will be banished. This Proclamation is,. to say the least, founded on a very strict construction of the principles of neutrality. If the lonian Senate are right, the British Government must have given the Porte just cause of oar in suffering the loan to be raised in this country ; for surely it will nut be arguilli,at:y wasaatit tislrmoely o p re r crimioal to take rare that the rr applied, than it was, in the first instance, to raise the loan.—During the late Spanish war, the Cortes openly raised money in England, and nu one dreamed that it was a violation of the., strict neutrality his INlajessy's Ministers professed.— Why, then, should this objection be now taken a gainst the Greeks ? The }Metope to confound 44 money and warlike stores" will not avail the lonian , Senate ; nut that we know of any inter national law which prohibits the supply of war like stores by neutrals, to contending parties, who may choose to purchase them. But if money is now to be declared coutraband, it. will be ne cessary to inquire into the character of every bill of exchange drawn for or upon the subjectsof every belligerent power, and offered for payment in the neutral territory. Besides, us yet the loan has not become the property of the Greeks. I t belongs to British subjects; and it is only while it remains their property that it is to be deposited at Zante or Cerigo. We arc afraid that this hasty and over scrupulous interference of the lonian Senate will • have the effect of putting the Greeks and their creditors to considerable 'newt venience. The decree of the legislative body, will give the utmost satisfaction,. as to the dispo sition of the Greeks themselves, with - respect to the loan. Not a shilling is to be applied to cover former ex petters. The o bole dedicated to the future charges of the struggle. Tile earn which Colonel Stanhope ascribes to the Gret.k Legislature, respecting the appropriation of pub lie money,' is strikingly exemplified in the fulness of the, terms of the law, and in the obvious anxiety t o prevent the smallest [forting of the money from being appliedloany purposesdifferent from those for which it rs borrowed.

JAMAICA PAPERS. BARANQUILLA, MAY 14.—The proceedings of Congress, in Bogota, have not, as yet, been marked with any act of public importance, if we except the law just passed, agreeably to which all the lands, dedicated to the Saints, (by far the most valuable in the country, and amounting to many millions), are taken from the Clergy, and appropriated to the exclusive use of the Government, for the prosecution of the war, &c. This is as it ought to be ; but the system ought to be followed up ; and it is hoped it will, by condemning all the properties of Monasteries, Cloisters, Convents, &c. in favour of the Go vernment, and converting their useless inmates into useful members of society. Upon a late occasion, when the Archbishop of Merida was commencing a speech in the Senate, in the fol lowing manner : " Our Holy Religion is losing ground," he was most promptly put down by nearly a unanimous vote. Of the Holy Alliance the Executive has received some late advices, indicating an enterprize on this country. On this the Congress have debated with closed doors ; but, whatever may be said or written on it, the fact is, that neither Spain nor France are desirous of a war with the United States. What pare the English Government takes on this occasion is per fectly enigmatical. If it is really the friend of this Republic, it ought to recognize it ; Hits policy dif fers in this respect from that of the Holy Alliance, it ought to recognize it ;--on principles of com mercial policy it ought to recognize it. Great Britain itself (styled a free country) ought to recognize the Republic of Colombia as.a matter of course, and illustrative of her own free prin ciples of government. (Extract ofa Letter front Trinidad, dated the 10th inst.) You will have noticed in the English Papers the Order in Council for the treatment of the slaves in Trinidad. This has been published in the Gazette here (although not officially), and has caused great dismay and consternation among all classes of the community. I fear it may be attended with mischievous effects. I have no hesitation in saying it gives a deadly blow to the agricultural prosperity of the island, as none of the inhabitants in the other colonies (the soil of some of which is nearly worn out), will now establish themselves here, and be subject to all the palm; and penalties enacted by the said Order. It is really unfortunate that Trinidad should be made the theatre, for experiments on all occasions ; but this too clearly proves the case from Mr. Canning's speech. I send you a pamphlet published by a Member of the Council here ; and although it relates to the former pro. positions of Earl Bathurst for the treatment of the slaves still you may find it worth perusal. FOR THE SUN. IRELAND. :Mr, EDITOR—Our tropes in Ireland are san gUine on die important change likely to originate in the very necessary and most laborious atten tion which the British Senate has devoted to this vexed and ill-governed Island. We have a Vice roy of acknowledged talents, of fair, manly, and liberal policy, whose powers have been abun dantly appreciated on a field of ample space to try the governmental tact of a veteran' in the art of a statesman. Unhappily, however, Marquess WELLESLEY'S splendid talents have not that field for developement, for nice and consistent deci sion of character, in this secluded nook of the Atlantic, which they lied while he wielded the sceptre of Asia, the modern Autocrat of which quarter of the globe it requires little observation to see is, and must be, for some centuries to come (it is to be hoped) the Governor-General of British India. Doubtless his Lordship will lay before the Commissioners the large and generic views for amelioration which his sound judgment and clis. passionate inquiries must have procured since his arrival in Ireland. As to the Catholic question—there can be but one sound opinion, perhaps, on this once intricate inquiry ; the annual voice of the Commons House of Parliament proclaims that common sense will, at last, be an over-match for the mean shuffling, and the wriggling lubricity, of the High Church Party, the Saints, and the aca demic Tories of the Senate. England, Great Britain rather, must give as a boon, if she waits not to have the donation ex torted from her fears, or wrung from her prejudices. What is this great boon to be bestowed—what these prejudices to be conciliated ; the latter are in truth abundantly obvious; the prejudices which have kept faction alive for the last ten years on the subject of concession to the Catholics are interwoven with the earliest and strongest ties of life ; they must really be extorted from such great men as Mr. Peel, and all his advisers " et id genus ovine." The talent of five millions of Irish Catholics will speak in tongues of thunder, and no Ministry can silence, no administration can sit while this grand arcanum of politics re mains unexplained. What do we fear ? what is the value of our obsolete and forgotten Veto—we give a few fea thers to adorn the moth-eaten plume of papacy ; the modern Bishop of St. Peter's, if not made im portant by injudicious opposition, must patch up his parchment mitre with, the meagre remnant gratuitously conceded by his whiskered martyrs, the Austrians and the French. We are asked by a few briefless lawyers and petulant bankrupts in fortune, talent, and character, to grant Emenci pation ; what meaneth this enfranchisement from chains, a boon of a few feathers to prop up the decayed honours of a hierarchy past delivery ; a few sacrifices, which a rational Statesman would he the,first to grant unasked, for the purpose of conciliation to some twenty or thirty Catholic Gentlemen, , who wish to sit in his Majesty's Senate, where possibly they may be very useful in filling. the places of restless democrats, or ex. pectant patriots: lo God's name let us give a boon which must be writhed out of us at last against our inclination. What would Daniel O'Connel, that Hybrid Demosthenes of Ireland, be, if he had no injustice to expatiate unto his despised compatriots ? Have we not the power still of making the infant legislators inert, by withholding; the patronage of the Ministry to the unpledged Sire of Popery in his incipient progress? What in this free mixed Monarchy can we fear from 50—from 70 Catholic Members of Parlia ment: -,Thectly . danger is from Catholics, w h o have net;OtitkiqUenCe, responsibility, or stake in the eotuttry,.coutinuing by their insane effusions to infuriate our Milesiau Give then, Mr. Canning, the Catholics their long-asked Emancipation, but shew these blunder. into sons of faction that they shall wait for what, had they observed more consistence and respect in their harangues, they would have had sooner.

It seems to be a prevailing opinion in this Co lony, that the Ministerial experiment, now about to he tried in Trinidad, will meet with serious obstructions in practice, and, indeed, that it will ultimately fail altogether. Our new Governor; Sir Benjamin d'Urban, already displays great energy of character, and pleases us by all the frankness and affability of pia manners. Ile has set out on a tour in this United Colony, to ascer tain, by personal investigation, the real state, &c. of our Slave population—probably for the purpose of grounding a Report to Government On the subject. We entertain some hopes that the new Slave Code will not be forced upon us, till after it shall have been seen how it operates in Trinidad." jobbing is at this present moment notorious—but the ignorance of the makers is as manifest; they actually seem not to know the advantage of taking a level through a hilly country, as many of the new roads may attest at this day. But what should most of all secure the at tention of the Irish Commissioners is the change to be introduced into the habits, manners, and domestic customs of the poorer part of our population—the first feature, which looked pro minently forward in the portrait of Irish im provement, is the total want of sympathy of the higher orders with the wants, the wishes, the distress of the wretched and ragged Irish pea santry, and . to this is their full series of evils and dereliction incidental to a state of society where honesty of character has no incentive for its elicitation—positively character in the rural population of Ireland is at a low ebb, the thoughtless and ignorant vassal is ignorant of the .value of honesty, and the importance of reputa tion. There is no reward for fair-dealing—their landlords are in general merciless rack•renters, and the tenant is almost careless what opinielz either his landlord or the few remaining gentry entertain on this subject. Education gradually introduced, and imparted to Catholics and Protestants, without Bibles, or interfering with ceremonials, or proselyting, to the remotest manner--this must be the work of time, and the descendants of the present incum' bents will be two or three degrees advanced its the scale of civilization, by the infant germine now committed to the soil for maturation.

CHARITIES, and F UNDED E NDOWMENT S, ill IRELAND, should be new modelled—these me) be formed, and noble endowments granted, from the family of absentee Peers, whidh are at this moment absolute sinecures—large schools en" dewed, whose very walls* are in ruins. AGRICULTURE may Le much improved, ana most useful changes induced in the art, by send ing over farmers qualified to instruct by example; let a few absentee landed proprietors be solicited by Government to grant districts of their estates to persons renting the same, for the purpose of introducing a better system of farming—let townships or villages of useful, industrious colo nists be introduced from Norfolk, from York shire, from Airshire, from the Lothians, from the Carse of Gowry ; and let these valuable ml grators get an interest in their farms, and en couragement to remain, and hopes of , enjoying 0. renewal of their leases—let the nietuts o f de• fence be placed in their hands, after allegiance to their Sovereign be secured by oath. You will find these valuable innovators will impress on the minds of the endemial inhabitant the use of industry, and the value of honest dealing. The great defect of Ireland is—the vast Catholic population have no wants—the potatoe fills the windy, voice in their intes• tines, and they look not for the aliment of men civilized, but are content with filth and farina inferior to their kindred swine. This subject is too extensive to be compressed into the compass of a letter; if your Readers IW I I the inquiry, they may hear more from ANGLO-IIILESIANVS. • Vide Middleton, County Cork, a noble endowment by th e. family of Lord Middleton.

The whole was qui c kl y I n a blaze, and all the regular means of ogees cut off by the flames.
