E LONDON, JOUILNALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, N0v.16, 1825. [BRITISH PR ESS.I Lest night we received the Paris Papers of Sunday, including the Mode dated the following day. The last number of the Mercure du 19 Siccle reveals a singular transaction,, in which M. Sosthene de la Rochefoucault figures, as usual, very ridiculously. It appears that this sage per sonage, afraid of the animadversions which his administration of the household was justly cal culated to draw down upon him, paid the Editor of the lifercure a sum of 1,500 francs, on the ex press condition, as stated in the receipt, that " the said Journal should not, during twelve months, attack either the administration of the Ring's household or the person of M. Sostheue de la Rochefoucault." The Editor immediately transmitted the money to the treasurer of the Creek subscription, and in his next Paper pub lished the two receipts, declaring, at the same time, that he would keep his engagement, and apologizing to his readers for the loss of the few jokes, good or bad, that he might have made at the expence of M. de la Rochefoucault, in consideration of the use to which he had ap plied the cash. We know not how far to blame the editor of the Mercure for his conduct in this transaction. Undoubtedly he has violated the implied pledge of secrecy under which all bar-1 gains of this kind 'are concluded ; but in expos ing so clearly the gross system of corruption pur sued towards the public press, he has rendered an important service to his country. Among the contributors to the Mereure are many of the most eminent men of letters now existing in France. What must be the course taken with respect to works and writers of inferior character, when such advances as these are made, with the view of bribing the Illercure to silence ? A fresh in stance of the illiberality and intolerance of the French Government in regard to religious subjects, has been given in the prosecution of some female Quakers, who were found on Sunday the 30th of Jan. last assembled at ahouse in St. Etienne, for the purpose of reading and expounding the New Tes tament. The Commissary of Police broke in upon their meeting, seized their books and papers, and interrogated them as to the object of their society. They stated that they met in order to instruct themselves in religious knowledge according to the Gospel, which was their only guide, .that their society owed its origin to the visit of two foreigners, an American and an Englishwoman, and t hat es the number of its members was fifteen. A prosecution was instituted against them by virtue of the 290th article of the penal code, which forbids any regular assembly for any reli gious, political, or other object, except with the consent of the Government, and under such cou- ditions as the agents of public authority may think fit to impose upon it. The judgment of the Court of Correctional Police was, that the meetings of these female Quakers %vas not only a manifest violation of the law, but also a subject of disorder and scandal for society at large, The accused parties were severally sentenced to a fine of 50 francs and the costs of the prosecution.-- What must we think of the spirit and sentiments of a Government which is, or affects to he, alarmed at the meetings of a few old women in the garb of Quakers ? [MORNING POST.] French Papers to the ,14th instant, and the Etoile of Monday, reached us . last night by Ex press. They contain intelligence from Corfu to the 19th ult., which states that Colocotroni, at the head of 14,000 men, had overtaken and de feated Ibrahim Pacha at Marathonissi, and pur sued him to Mistra, where the Egyptian Chief had taken refuge with a small number of soldiers, and remained closely blockaded. It also ap pears that befOre the last grand attack on the lst Sept., and the destruction of the Turkish works which ensued, Redschid Pacha had endea voured to open negociations with the . garrison of Missolonghi, but had failed in- the attempt, the Greeks answering that arms alone must decide the contest. The late fire at Smyrna is now said to derive its origin from - a popular commotion, and to have been attended by a dreadful massacre. It is doubtful, however, from the date of this ac count, whether it bean altered version of the ori ginal statement, or whether it allude to a new event. On the 12th of October, the enterprising Greek General Karaiskaki is said to have attack ed Caravassara, the chief Depot of the Seraskier's ammunition and provisions. The main object, however, was defeated by the death of a young Greek, who like the Decii of ancient Rome, had devoted himself to certain destruction for his country, but was killed before he could reach the powder magazine of the which he had engaged to fire. It is reported that Admi ral Miaulis finding that the Turkish and 'Egyptian fleets had taken troops on board, and were preparing to set sail from Alexandria, had sunk vessels filled with stones, at the entrance of that port, and thus created a bar, which it was impossible for ships of war to pass. Should, as we sincerely hope it may, this report be realized, the effect will be fully tantamount to that of a victory, if not greater ; for even after a defeat a portion of the enemy's fleet might have found its way to the Morea and lauded reinforcements to relieve 'lbrahim, whilst the shutting up and de tention of the whole naval force of the Porte and its Vassal within the harbour of Alexandria, will leave him altogether to his own resources, which are greatly diminished, and which a few weeks or a month or two - Intiger - Would entirely exhaust. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] The alarm, which we noticed yesterday, still prevails amongst the holders of funded property, and as it has spread to the French market, where appearances are equally gloomy, it is clear, in our opinion, that the rapid fall of the English Funds is not the effect of lucal causes alone, such as an increased demand for capital in trade, or the late speculative mania ; but that it has also its rise in a prevailing sense of political dangers, real or imaginary. 13oth the Paris Papers and private letters from that capital, abound also in rumours and speculations utterly i inconsistent with those professions of amity and good-will which it has been so long the fashion of European Governments to interchange, and in which, we believe, there was more sincerity than formerly belonged to similar declarations. — Whatever may be the opinion of the principal jobbers in the English market as to the cause of its present depressed state, it is certain that a strong persuasion prevails among the leading spe culators on the Bourse, in Paris, that the fall of the ltentes is not the effect of unfounded panic, but of a marked collision of views between this country and several States of the Conti nent respecting the late Colonial possession of Spain. Plausible as this opinion may he in one sense, we mean the jealousy occasioned by the manly conduct of England, yet by not attaching due weight to British influence, it is entitled to much less consideration than it would appear at a hasty view to merit. Even were it true that our policy has given great um brage, it would not necessarily follow that an open rupture must ensue, as this would plainly aggravate the supposed evil, by urging our Go vernment to pursue a more determined line of conduct generally. Besides the risks of such a conflict would pass for -something in so grave a decision ; and where is the Power amongst them all that would venture to brave them, or flatter itself for a single instant, that the result would serve to lower the pride, weaken the considera tion, or detract from the power, of this country ? [MORNING HERALD.] The Jesuits in France appear to have adopted a different system of tactics and field of opera tions since the accession of the present Sovereign. The late King was something of an esprit fort, and never personally in favour with them. Dur ing his reign they employed themselves chiefly in the provinces—practising upon the credulity, ignorance, ambition, or avarice of those among whom they went. The success of the mission aries, however, did not answer their expecta tions—and-excited against them a degree of odium which was not counterbalanced by the conver sions they made. Now they have obviously gained a footing in the King's closet—and if they do not appoint the Cabinet Miuisters, clearly direct the exercise of the inferior patronage. The assassination of the Duke of Berri enabled them to shut the Liberals and the Revolutionists out of the Tuileries. Another in termediate party, however, still remained. These were the persons called Doctrinaires, who, having some reputation in literature, great pretensions to wisdom-and virtue, affecting to keep clear of the two leading or extreme parties, and continuing to obtain more than their proportion of pensions and allowances out of the public purse, as members of the Council of State, or in some branch of the public service ; more particularly professorships in the system of public instruction. The Jesuits have ever hated them, even more than they do the decided Liberals. But it is only now that they have at last succeeded in completely re dacing them to silence. M. Royer Collard, a leading man of this party, and a public lecturer, has been recommended to keep his oracles to himself. For the party itself, its total subjugation will excite little interest, even in France. But as a proof of the increasing in fluence of the tramontane interest, or those who labour to extend the power of the Pope within the church and kingdom of France, it is more important. Charles X. whatever may be his virtues, is the very person over whose mind Priests could obtain absolute dominion. The sin cerity of his devotion passes unquestioned. But it is of that kind which, according to Madame Boland, makes a man but a poor figure of a King. " Louis XVI." said she, " avail peur du purga. Loire et de l'excommunication—it etoit impossible de n'etre, point avec cela, un pauvre Roi." The present King is much more of a devotee, and of a more manageable character in the hands of a Confessor, than the ill. fated Prince of whom this opinion was given. [NEW TIMES.] The Funds yesterday morning experienced a continuation of that decline which has affected them for these two or three days, and, in the ab sence of any real political reason which could have caused such a depreciation, the most absurd rumours have been industriously circulated, with the view to force them still further down. Not withstanding the energy of the specalators in pro pagating these reports, they were not given any credence to. Consols for the Account 24th inst. opened at 854,2,-,fell to 8524,but again recovered, and after several fluctuations, closed at Monday's quotation,viz.BsB,and 854 i for Money. Exchequer Bills for 1,0001. varied from Is. to 2s. pm. to par. Bills of 5001. from par to 2s. premium, and small ditto from 6s. to 4s. premium. On these Securi ties, it was reported yesterday, that Government mean to raise the rate of interest upon Exche quer Bills from 12d. to 2d. per day for 1001.—In the Foreign Market it was an extremely busy day, most of the brokers and jobbers being ac tively engaged in arranging their accounts, it be ing Settling Day. We have only heard of one individual who has been publicly declared a defaulter, and his differences, we are in formed, are not to any very great extent. —The settling the different accounts usually constitutes the chief business, but this was not the case yesterday ; a great many bar gains were entered into for time, and the quan tity of the different Stock sold very consider able. The heaviness of the various Securities has been increased. Mexican Scrip, which left off on Monday at 12+ dis., was yesterday so low as 144, and closed at 131 dis. ; Brazil Scrip 12 dis.; Colombian Bonds were done at 66, but left off at 66i- ; Chaim' Bonds from 55 to 54 ; Greek Bonds 22-!.,. to 23 ; Spanish Bonds have attracted more attention than for some days past ; they were at one period of the day done at 141, but left off 15+ ; French Itentes 98f.; Exchange 25f. 15c.—There was not much doing in the Share Market, the public not evincing any dis position to avail themselves of any offers made to them of these variable Securities. Three or four of the Steam Companies have determined upon returning the deposits, after making a de duction of about ss. per share. Brazilian Min ing Shares were 1 to if pm. ; Castilian, 1 pm. ; Chilian, 3 pm. ; English, 1 dis. ; Haytian, dis. ; Pasco Peruvian, 21 pm. ; Potosi, 1 dis.; Real del Monte, 120 pm.; United Mexican, 91 to 10 pm. ; New ditto, 94 7 to 104 ; British Iron, 74 dis.; British, Irish, and Colonial Silk,l dis.; Provincial Bank of Ireland, 2. dis.—The Fo reign Exchanges were yesterday rather upon the advance. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] It is impossible for Spain ever to regain pos session of her quondam Colonies of America, and indeed the whole force of Europe would proba bly fail in an attempt to replace the South Ame ricans in their old state of servitude. But when we consider how feeble authority must long be in countries in which civilization is yet in its in fancy, we are not without our apprehensions that the intrigues of Europe may be but too success ful in fomenting jealousies into insurrections, and in creating anarchy and confusion. Several States have wisely refused to allow the natives of Old Spain to enter their country ; but the Catholic Priesthood is ever ready to supply Euro pean despotism with as devoted instruments as any that can be found in Old Spain.— Irish and even Scotch Jesuits are regu larly dispatched to South America, perhaps for purely religious purposes, but most probably to further the view of the Holy Alliance. Against natives of these Islands, the South Americans will naturally be less on their guard than against Old Spaniards ; and as their motions will be less watched, we consider them only the more dan gerous. The circulation of Priests which is per petually taking place in Catholic countries, fur nishes an easy and generally secure mode of scat tering emissaries through a country. The Priests, we fear, are not over and above well affected to the new Government, and we are sure that they most cordially hate whatever tends to emancipate and enlighten the population. We know but too well in what manner, and to what purpose, the Priests have used their influence in Europe. " The Confessional and the Pulpit," says the Author of that admirable work, Don Esteban, ‘C those two great auxiliaries of despotism, igno rance and Monkish oppression, were employed (after the return of Ferdinand to Spain) to the utmost. The secrets obtained by means of the former were revealed to the agents of the Civil Power, or worse still to those of the Inquisition; who, in their turn, caAd for the assist ance of the Public Authorities against the Iphantom of infidelity and impiety, as if their iron arm was not sufficient of itself to sa tiate their thirst for blood, while in the pulpit discord was seen waving its lighted torch over the heads of the whole people, and laying down as a sacred duty, that the son should denounce the father, the wife her husband, the sister her brother, the servant his master, time poor man his benefactor, and the mistress her lover—if they professed liberal opinions, or, in other words, if they uttered any complaints against such a dreadful state of anarchy." Possess ing then, as the Priesthood does, such powerful means of influencing the people, through the con fessional and the pulpit, the different Govern ments cannot be too vigilant with respect to the Monkish emissaries who may be dispatched from Europe to influence the Priesthood. The degree Of Prostration of the human mind, in most parts of South America, is much greater than in the worst parts of Europe. Superstition ,and priestly artifice are the enemies from which the South Americans will, for some time, have most to dread. [TILE TIM ES. The Irish Catholics, with that strange contra diction of the means to the end, which seems- to be entailed as an indefeasible curse upon the na tion, are labouring with all their might to make themselves ridiculous and their cause odious. The acknowledged leaders, instead of co-operating in the great object which they pretend to have at heart, are quarrelling and exercising all their logical skill to convince the world that no trust is to be put in each other : in the heat of controversy each party is so anxious to prove the antagonist party to be in the wrong, that they do not • see the natural result—that the world will be apt to take them both at their word, and pronounce them both in the wrong. We are sometimes almost inclined to be lieve that the Catholics have no serious wish to be relieved from their disabilities—that, to use the words of a fanatical portion of the Method• ists, " they love to be despised." It is certainly difficult on any other supposition to account for the constant bickerings, for the perpetual abuse of each other, which characterizes all their speeches and all their writings. It was said by Cromwell of the notorious John Lilburn that if he had nobody else to attack,John would quarrel with Lilburn, and Lilburn with John. The Catholics are even more litigious than John Lilburn : they have people to quarrel with ; they have numerous adversaries ready to dispute with them every point of their claims : yet, in the ardour of their combativeness, they are not content with this host of opponents, but in the mere wantonness of Irish quarrelsomeness they must fight w ith each other. Paper after paper from Ireland is filled with lettersand speeches of one I rish leader against another ; where, with characteristic shortsighted ness and vanity, each combatant, in his zeal to destroy his antagonist, is content to destroy the common cause for which they both profess the utmost devotion. What would we infer from this conduct of the Catholics ? Certainly no argument against emancipation. We should rather say that such imbecility, such indis cretion, such discord of opinion are in them selves • sufficient guarantees against the dan ger which some apprehend from giving them an increase of power, even if we had not the greater, and as to us appears, the impregnable guarantees of the enlightened mode of thinking, and the ardent love of liberty, which all rational minds believe to be essential ingredients of Pro testantism, and totally incompatible with the Catholic faith. DIGNITY OF MAN. FOR THE SUN. MR. EDITOR—When it pleased the Almighty to bestow upon man the inestimable gift of rea son) when he vouchsafed to shed on his soul a ray of divine light, h• raised this favoured being high above the rest of sublunary creation, and esta blished him lord over the rest of created beings. In this point of view, man may be justly consi dered as the completion of a work, which, with out him, must have remained imperfect. True it is, that in the stupendous and magnificent fa bric, planned by Divine Wisdom, and executed by Divine Omnipotence, there are many and evident traces of the mind by which the plan was conceived, and of the hand by which it was ex ecuted. True it is, that wherever we turn our eyes, whatever becomes the object of our en quiries; whether we examine the surface of the earth, or penetrate into its inmost recesses, or dive into the 46 unfathomed caves of ocean," or soar into the boundless regions of air, or wing our daring flight to the countless systems of systems, which fill the immensity of space we every where discover that all is as it should be, and the whole of the wondrous fabric bears the stamp of perfection ; but would this stupend ous work have been really perfect, had no one being existed capable of perceiving and of en joying this perfection ? Throughout every por tion of it, there is seen a regular gradation among the several parts, an obvious chain, which con nects one species with another, and would this chain have been perfect had there existed no link to unite the material with the spiritual world, the heavens with the earth, the work with the artificer ? Man formed of the clay upon which he treads, destined one day to inhabit that heaven towards which his eyes are directed, filled with the breath of divine wisdom, and thus connecting the world of which he forms a part, with the God who framed the whole ; may be therefore justly considered as the noblest of sub lunary beings, and as the completion of sublu nary creation. He does, indeed, vegetate and perish like the plants of the field : he is, no doubt, subject to the same wants, exposed to the same casualties as the rest of animated beings, but he dies to live again; he quits a corruptible body to assume one that will never perish more. This world is not his country, time is not his por tion ; he is the destined citizen of heaven, and his inheritance is eternity. Man, thus dignified in his nature on earth, and , destined to enjoy the purest bliss in heaven, may be justified in feeling some pride at the noble-1 ness of his being. Whenever he casts a glance around him he feels conscious that he is Lord of all he sees. He may be inferior to many other animals in dimensions, in strength, or in swiftness; but he is capable of turning these very qualitiee to his own advantage. The whole of nature labours only to minister to his pleasure or to his comforts. Animals are born to be his passive slaves ; and they, as well as plants, are intended to afford him both food and raiment ; whilst the vast bosom of the earth yields him the most precious or the most useful of its mineral produc tions. It seems as if the sole purpose of his existence were, that he should live and enjoy the varied productions which nature so abundantly brings forth. God did, without doubt, give him life that he might enjoy it. Infinite goodness, when it created man, most undoubtedly created him to be happy. It was for this that he received a soul, for this that the germ of the best affections were implanted in his heart, for this that lie had given him the capability of loving and of making himself beloved. That. his sensibility as fre quently proves a source of pain as one of pleasure, is a melancholy truth, which no one will deny, because there are few who have not known it from sad experience. But what inference may be drawn from this ? That sensibility is the bane of our existence ? that it would have been bettPr for man had his heart been cold and insensible ? 0 no ! If the best feelings of his soul are too often wounded by the rough and chilling blasts he may encounter during his journey through life, they still more frequently prove the abun dant and never-failing Source of his best enjoy ments upon earth. To them he stands indebted for the flowers that are strewed along his path. They alone cast a glow upon a scene, which with out them, must he cheerless and desolate. And, as they fail not to prompt him to noble and virtu ous deeds, as they inspire him with the desire of avoiding the alluring paths of vice, and of pur suing real happiness along the rougher road that leads to virtue, the possession of them affords another proof of his vast superiority over the rest of existing animals. But whilst man feels thus conscious of the sin gular dignity of his nature, shall this consciousness awaken in his soul no other sentiments but those of vanity and of pride ? Whilst he enjoys the in estimable gifts so lavishly bestowed upon him, shall he turn away his thoughts from Him by whom they were given, and silence the voice of grati tude ? Though great and dignified he certainly is, yet neither this greatness nor this dignity ne cessarily appertain to his nature. In himself, he is a mere nothing when compared with infinity, and but great indeed, when compared with nothingness. He is equally distant from either extreme ; and his being is as far removed from the nothingness out of which he was drawn,as from the infinity into which it will be engulphed.— To reason, and to reason alone, he stands in debted for his pre-eminence over the rest of cre ated beings. When deprived of this, he sinks even below the level of the brute creation. This reason he received from his God. To his God, therefore, he stands indebted for the dignified station which he holds in animated nature. And, therefore,does he owe to his God the thanks which are due to a benefactor, and the trihute.of ho mage and of adoration which an inferior owes to a superior Being, which the creature owes to it, Creator. Hence it follows, that as man is a ra tional being, he must necessarily be also a reli gious being. That same reason which enables him to discover his own dignity ; the nobleness of his origin ; the grandeur of his destiny ; points out to him, at the same time, his Maker, his Be nefactor, and his God, and bids himiall down and adore the Author of his being, the Omni potent, the Eternal. A. P. POLL CE INTELLIGENGE, PUBLICANS. 00 BOW.STILEET.—A number of publicans and their Tn su e crowded the office yesterday, to answer summonses 11 against them by their old friend Johnson. The first who presented himself before the Sitt in g trates, Sir R. Bit NIL and Mr. HALLS, was a Mr. Digg s ' landlord of the Sun, in Round-court, Chandos-street.
