TliK LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY_ ek.sfraststfrona the Moriung.l ) opers,June 17,1826- - LTIIE T 1 XLS.] If the tenour of the letters received yesterday trona Madrid, which are- dated the 2d instant, Could be assumed as prophetic, a crisis- in Spain cannot be far distant. Never was the adminis tration of the affairs of atiy civilized !kingdom in a state:of more " admired disorder.l? NO pay in gal depa,rtment, civitor military no duty to the conarounity performed ;andlthe whole, therefore, in a state of - bitter discontent or exasperation,'— Thi,s i gNltrrtlthe. interior of the kingdom, and. in .the towns atone the coast;' but it more patricularly exists in,, the _province of Valencia. N.9.tlling, but the, presence. of the French. troops prevents - perhaps' a state -of universal chaos.=- - Amongilie recent freaks of. the " belovetr.Mo usrch may be mentioned, if the letters are to be errodited, ; the cancelling 'licences granted for' the importation of cotton. goods, probably after the parties had entered. into ex tensive • purchases for the supply of the Spanish market. We confess we feel little pity for those who place confidence, even for pnrposes regarding his self-interest, in his .Royal word. Yet it. is. said that there are persons in Madrid, of respectable character too, who are making new offers of English money to Ferdinand. Their labour, however, Is useless,: let contracts upon contracts be concluded, the day is long past when his bonds could find cur rency, under whatever spectes introduced, on the Royal Exchange of London. • [THE PUBLIC - LEDGER.) A mail arrived yesterday from Buenos Ayres, bringing papers and letters to the 9th of April. The intelligence by the latter is on the whole gratifying ; and it speaks in animated terms of the impulse imparted to trade in consequence of the recognition of the independence of that country by England. That this act should con solidate the public tranquillity, and improve the national feeling, was to be expected ; and we have great pleasure. in stating that the private accounts confirm these expectations. Such a state of• things necessarily favours commercial enterprise ;- and the merchants were actively employed in taking advantage of these favour able circumstances. One letter says, that the accounts from England had inspired them with a spirit of speculation ; and gratifying as this intelligence unquestionably is, it offers only a faint idea of what is in reserve. Should our commercial relations with the Old World sustain any check, we should find in the markets of the New, a full compensation for any loss we might sustain in consequence. As this supposition,how ever, is any thing but probable, and as our Euro pean trade, on the contrary, is likely to increase, in consequence of the judicious arrangements recently adopted, we may safely affirm that our present commercial prosperity is insignifi cant, compared to what is in store. From some unexplained cause Chili has been for some time the theatre of great distractions ; though the evil, wellope, is one -of those which time will correct. The want of an efficient government, we should suppose, is the chief cause ; and the factious, en countering no check, have thrown every thing into confusion. One of the factions which struggled for the ascendancy having succumbed, it is probable that tranquillity will be restored. However the danger could not be very imminent, since a proposal made by Congress to suspend the constitution, was rejected by the executive branch of the government. The account is very obscure, and, we are disposed to think, contains much exaggeration. • I MORNING' HERA The Recorder's report of the prjsoners -capi tally.convicted in the two last sessions of the Old Bai-ley bears. revolting evidence against the laws of tire -country, or the manners of the people.— No - less than thirty-seven persons have been sen teneecito.death in that short period—and of these eighteen under twenty years of age ! This list is not even so overcharged with blood as many that have preceded it. But considering that Bank forgeries have vanished with the small notes, that the country is in a state of unexam- - pled peace, industry, and prosperity—that there are. ad idlers throWn upon the community, from want of employments or. from the disbanding and dismal:Ming of regiments and ships—considering these circumstances, the -number is horrible.— It is quite impossible to say any thing new on this subject. No question has been inves tigated with more force of reason and authori ty,and with a, success so utterly disproportioned. But it isbnnecessary to say any thing. The fact that so many human , .creatures should. be con demned to die, in so short a period, by a single Court, irresistibly fixes the stigma of barbarity upon• the community, or upon the laws. , The former Must be savagely depraved, or the latter inhumanly cruel. But it will be said that of these 37 only seven are to undergo the sentence of death.— Very true. But this seeming mercy is in fact an aggravation. If the law. were less severe, or more strictly enforced, that number even would not, in all probability, incur the penalty of death. That the uncertainty of en forcement —or, in other words, the increase of the chances of escape, promotes crime, has. been too frequently shown, and is indeed too obviously true to. be insisted on. The same. absurdity, expressed by a different .phrase, is somewhat mo,r . e.imposing, . and has more influence. Cri m e, it is -said,. is prevented by holding up severe Pe' 'tattles in terroiem. , This has been : urged with much. gravity and effect by wise and learned Members of the,llouse of Commons, and listened to as a Matter of deep sense and sagacious dis covery. Only let it be supposed for a moment thatzny Member proposed •to originate a severe lawy with a view -.to frighten,- but trot -to be. eve , cured:. Why the very countrygentletnen wOUld. cry .:out against him, .A.ttd• yet the absurdity of enacting a. , new law merely in terroreth" not More certain and pernicious than continuing an old one with that. view. -One of the com monest axioms of legislation is, that law Should be a defined,'certain, and known rule of con duct in the community. People should know to a dear certainty - two Things—whet is reqUired of them, anti what the penelty - Of their transgression. The first-is uncertain enough-,-but the second is a:it absolute lottery, in the msent usage of respite, commutation , and remission . If this principle were correct , it would be better to stitute Judges for laivs—tO leaVe 'the Judges a discrytiOnary power —or to let the law only pro hibit-the act, .and let the Judges apportion the penalty. As it is, they exercise (shared with the adviseri of the'Ciown), an . awful discretion, without the due' responsibility. It is strange that they % vill not therriselves shrink from the discretion of choosing seven victims to sutler death,' but "of thirty-seven whom the law has placVd all in the'-Same predicament. EBRITISH PRESS.] On the Report of the Committee appointed to inquire' into the consequences of the repeal of the Combination Laws, leave was last night given to ,bring in a Bill to repeal the Act of last Session, and substitute such other provisions as may be deemed'expedient to remove the existing evils. It was again explicitly stated, that no intention exists of re-enacting the severe and oppressive Statutes repealed 'by the Act now in force ; but We think that no observer of what has passed during the last 12 months in the manufacturing districts, can dispute the propriety of applying , some effectual remedy to the mischiefs that have resulted from the rash and sweeping abolition of all the laws relating to the connection between mas ters and workmen. The loss and injury which in many cases have lately resulted from combin ations, have threatened serious consequences to the prosperity of our foreign commerce. The proper object of Legislation as to this sub ject, viz:, the perfect freedom of each in . - dividual workman, has been defeated, and a monstrous power established by self-appoint ed or irregularly-elected Committees, over the whole body of journeymen in several trades ; and on this model exertions are actively making to bring the other trades into a similar state of subjection. The rules promulgated and demands set up by these Committees, have been too often of that unreasonable and extravagant character, which might naturally be supposed likely to pro ceed from such individuals exercising such an authority. This system must be suppressed.— The welfare of the workmen themselves calls im peratively for its suppression. None are really more deeply interested than they, in disenthral ling themselves from a power, which evil-dis posed or ignorant men have assumed over them, to the prejudice of their just rights, and the ge neral diminution of their means of employment. [MORNING POST.] In the House of Commons last night, Mr. Wallace obtained leave to bring in a Bill to re peal the Act of Parliament of last Session, re specting Combinations, and to substitute such regulations as might be deemed expedient to remedy the evils arising therefrom. The House was then occupied for a consideratale time with charges of oppression towards individuals brought by Mr. Brougha►n against Lord Charles So merset, Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, and by Doctor Lushington against the Duke of Manchester, Governor of Jamaica. In both cases inquiry was promised, but in another Session, as the present was to near its close to allow of its being undertaken is an effective manner. The last business of the night was the second reading of the Bill to alter and repair Buckingham House, so as to fit it for the resi dence of the Sovereign. The sum demanded by the Chancellor of the Exchequer for that purpose does not exceed 200,0001. which is one-third less than the expence of erecting either of our winter theatres. We fear, therefore, that even when all its improvements are com pleted, Buckingham House will still leave a Pa lace a national desideratum. Its site is certainly the most convenient for such an edifice, and we see no reason why it should not be carried to such an extent along the high grounds at the ex tremity of the Green Park, as to acquire that imposing magnitude which alone can befit the dignity of the Monarch and the greatness of the Empire. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The Report in the Committee on the Combin ation Laws was brought up last night, and at the 'same time, Mr. Hume, a Member of the Com mittee; certainly not the least active, or least ac quainted with its proceedings, distinctly stated in his place that the investigation had been conducted in a most partial manner, that the evidence on one side only had been received, that something even like trick had been resort ed to, in order to get rid of inconvenient wit nesses, and that the Report was premature, and as such he protested against it. On a matter of fact it is not likely that Mr. Hume could be .mistaken, and the solemn and impressive man ner in which he addressed the House, lead us to apprehend that the only interest which is not represented there, and to which so many other interests are opposed, is about to be sacrificed. In a matter of so much importance as the re litions between the Masters and Workmen, the most deliberate and comprehensive inquiry was certainly called for. The well-being of the working classes, constituting the greatest part' of the population of a country, is, as was long ago observed by Dr. Smith, an object of all others the most to be desired. A stupid Alderman the other day lamented that the work .tnen should think of injuring the commerce of the country by . geeking a rise of wages. This man, we suppose ; would think, -if the workmen could he 'reduced to the wages of IliadooS, the country 'Would be in a most .flourishing state. - The avarice which clings to the Corn Laws may deem . the degradation of the labourer Iteces-` sa:rj to 'the perfection of their system. We have oOrfears. We are unwilling to think so ill of nrsttr's at that they would enter into a conspiracy of Fhis Sort against the. working classes —but there wits Something' ominous in the language of Mr,.

No' ckianges, indeed none but technical alterations, were made in the Bill. Thus this important measure, about which cornmer- cial men felt so much interest, is brought to a successful issue. Lord King, i ii presenting a petition from the quixotic, but, w e b e lieve, well-meaning advocate of non-contagion, in dulged, as usual, in one of his discursive at tacks, which called down upon him a short and pithy retort from the Lord Chancellor. In the House of Commons a conversation of some length arose on Mr. Brougham's presenting a petition containing many weighty charges against Lord Charles Somerset. The chief discussion of the evening followed, upon the motion of Dr. Lushington, respecting the deportation of two persons of colour from the Island of Jamaica. The motion was, in the end, withdrawn, on the suggestion of Mr. Canning. FRENCH PA PERS. (From the Courier Franlais.) GIIITIALTAR, MAY 28. (PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.)-A Spanish refugee here bas just received from Madrid the following tariff, sent him by one of his friends, who tells him that all the refugees, stained as they are, may become white as snow by arranging on the following terms with the Purificators : " Purification of a Lieutenant-General, 200 pistoles ; of a Major-General, 160; Brigadier, 150; Colonel, 100; Lieu tenant-Colonel, 75 ; Major, 60 ; Captain, 50 ; Lieutenant, 30." A similar tariff is fixed for the purification of civil officers. (Front the Etoile, dated Widnesd4, June 15.) The Gazette of the lonian Islands contains the Act of the lonian Parliament, establishing the power and the jurisdiction of the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy of the orthodox Greek Church. It is in 73 articles, of which the following are the principal : " This hierarchy consists of four metropolitans, one arch bishop, and two suffragans. Each of the metropolitans shall be invested in rotation with the dignity of Exarch of the Greek Church during one session of the Legislature. " The prelates can in no case correspond with a Foreign Power, except through a Governor-General. " No prelate can, without permission of the Government, introduce into his diocess new regulations in ecclesiastical matters. " No lonian ecclesiastic can be consecrated out of the lonian States. " The Government will fix the bounds of the parishes. " Every prelate is bound to ♦isit the churches of his diocess at least once every three years. " No prelate shall interfere in matters belonging to the civil authorities. " The prelates receive a fixed salary from the State. " Whenever it is intended to build a new church, the plan is to be laid before the Government." The other articles relate to the ecclesiastical tribunals, the vicars and curates, and means of carrying the act into exe- cution. The Lord High Commissioner has assigned 10,000 talaris, (70,009 francs) to be paid to the poor of Corfu from the public treasury.

COURT OF CHANCERY—(Taus DAY.) DR. ABERNETHY V. THE PROPRIETORS OF THE LANCET. JUDGMENT. —TiIe LORD CHANCELLOR ; on taking his seat this day, gave judgment in this cause. After the most careful consideration he could give a case possessing so much importance as the present, he was of opinion that there was a breach of the implied contract on the part of a student ; and as the defendants had not stated how they became possessed of the copy of the Lectures, Isis opinion was, that an Injunction ought to issue. An Injunction to restrain the further publica tion of the Lectures in the Lancet was directed to be drawn up accordingly. In the course of the morning his Lordship stated that he should not be able to sit in that Court to-morrow, as he had to attend the Privy Counsel on a case of the utmost importance, and of most pressing nature, in which it was thought necessary to have his. assistance together with th a t of the two Chief Justices and of the Chief Baron. LIVERPOOL AND :MANCHESTER RAILWAY. This Bill, which has excited so much interest in the Commercial World, and which is so intimately connected with the progress of public improvement in this country, has been withdrawn from the consideration of Parliament for the present Session, under the following circumstances :—lt has already been stated, and we believe correctly, that about 30,600/. has been expended, by the Railway Company, in pro secuting this application to Parliament. The opposition from Inland Navigation Companies has been extremely strong and persevering. The evidence has been contested in the Com mittee point by point, in every stage. On Tuesday, the 31st ult. the Committee-divided on the preamble of the Bill, which assumes generally that Railways will be advantageous to the trading and commercial interests of the country, and it Was carried by a majority of one-37 Members declaring by their vote that it was proved, an d 36 th a t it wa s not proved. The following day, bein g A s c ot- H eat h R aces , two ot h er divisions ' took -place, the first upon the clause—That the line of road marked out upon the plan should be that over which the Rail way should pass, .which was rejected by a majority of 19 to 13 ; and the second, granting the power to purchase land for the works, which was also rejected by a majority of 23 to 14 'voices. Hav - - ing thus lost both the line of road and the power of purchasing land, it wai impossible to proceed another step, and' the Bill was of, course ,withdrawn. It is stated, that the Members whose votes ddcitled the fate of the Bill attended now for the first time, and not. h eard a word of the evidence. Twointeresting ques t' ris arise out o f t hi s d ec i s i on —fi rst , w h at course w ill the Li verpool and Manchester Company now pursue? Will they abandon the measure altogether, or will they . renew their ap alication • ' And, second pp -- in the next session' of Parliament : __nu, hOw will other Railway Companies proceed ? On the first of these points, w e understand the probability is, that the Liver pciol and Manchester Company will renew their application ; the second will depend' upon so great a variety of circumstances as;not to admit of any general answer.—(Leeds Ofercury.

Of this number; 84,548 are for the use of the poor. Theassistance given by the Society has all but exhausted its finances ; and yet, such is the increased and increasing popu lation of the country, that church room to a much greater ex tent is still required. Applications are even'inore numerous now than they were at any former period ; but anleii the' public, Whose aid is earnestly entreated, and on whom the Society lie. pends (for it is supported entirely by voluntary contributioni), shall supply the means, assistance can beno longerafforded. The parliamentary grants'are specially approp r i a t e d to the 'building of additional churches, and in places where the population ex ceeds 4,000 persons, they cannot be applied to improve, enlarge, or rebuild. These are the great objects of this society, and these objects have been promoted with no inconsiderable success dining the seven years of its existence. It has opened the doors of the establishe4 church to thousands, who were before excluded from joining in its worship. Will not, then, the friends of that church come forward, and enable the society to continue its useful exertions ? His Majesty has been graciously pleased to make a donation of 1,0001. ; and the Com. mittee cannot but indulge the hope, that the example of the sovereign will be followed by his subjects in every rank of life ; for every pound that is subscribed will be the means of furnish ing an additional sitting. They can appeal to the good which has been already done in various places, by supplying the spirtual wants of :the population. They may venture to say, that the interests of religion and morality cannot be more effectually promoted than by the support and encouragement of this society.
