THE , LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY .Exer(mis from the Morning Papers, Aug. 16,1825. [NEW TINtEI.I We congratulate the friends of humanity on the important step which. has been taken by the French Government, iu declaring the Haytians independent. Several of our Cotemporaries give themselves credit for their sagacity in predicting this event some two or three weeks ago. un fortunately happens, however, that none of them became so sagacious until after the l.ltly'Of July, when it was first distinctly stated the New Times," that the French Government had taken a definitive resolution to recognise the independ ence of . Hayti ;'' and " that the llaytians were prepared to pay a large pecuniary indemnity to the ancient French Colonists." At the same time •we observed, " that such a sum of money paid, as -it would be, into the hands of the French Government, would be of con.. siderable use in promoting M. de Villele's favourite financial object, the reduction of the Rentes." As to the form in which Charles X. acknowledges the independence, we regard it as a matter of very trifling moment. The simple truth is, that the French Government has long ceased to have even a chance of reducing its old Colony to subjection ; and it has therefore acted wisely in endeavouring to derive from it commer cial advantages. In saying this, we are far from admitting that the right is merged in the fact, as doctrine which one of our contemporaries says is the dictate of common sense ; but which in truth is subversive of all morality and justice. If right be merged in fact, then is a robber the rightful possessor, a usurper the rightful King, and an adulterer the rightful husband. True it is that time greatly alters questions of right : but that is because it creates new rights which con flict the old ones : and in this way it becomes wise and just to effect a compromise between those who were unjustly put out of possession, and those who have long. possessed and improved the property, more especially if the latter were not personally concerned in the violence done to the former. Such is the compromise effected by the late law of indemnity for France, and by the present Ordonance of Independence for Hayti, [TII E TIMES. The acknowledgment of the independence - of Si. Domingo by the French Government is an incident of sufficient importance, both in the commercial and political world, to justify our recurring to the subject. We rejoice in it ; though it may create, or at least infuse new life into a rival ()lour own West India colonies : for rivalry is- as frequently attended with the ad vancement of both parties, as with. The success of one and the fall of the other. Where, in deed, there is only a single mistress to be won, a single aspirant only can attain her; but one great interest may be most successfully promot ed by rival operations. Had we, for - example, been the sole manufacturers of Europe, many of the mechanic arts, by which manufactures in ge neral have reached such perfection, would have remained undiscovered. The necessity of over coming competitors has racked invention, and forced her to obtain great results by com binations which were not originally in use. The world at large reaps the benefit.— Our West India planters, have, no doubt, suffered severely enough of late years. A new and inde pendent realm of planters may either help them to bear the burden, or teach the parent state the means of alleviating its pressure. It is, indeed, a remarkable fact, that sugars have become dearer in Europe as the prospect became more cer tain that this free competitor would enter the market. But it is, perhaps, in a political point of view that the acknowledgment of the in dependence of St. Domingo is most striking. " Time," says Lord Bacon, in his admirable Essays, "is the great innovator." We are of opinion, that more important changes are now operating in the world by means compara tively peaceful and silent, than could have been produced by Buonaparte, even had he been successful in all his projects : for had he triumphed over the old world, there is no doubt that he would have wished to retain the inhabitants of the new world in his chains. Mexico free—the States of South America free— St. Domingo free: a man naturally asks himself, " Where will these things end %" and human foresight can supply no answer to the question. The document by which this last event is an nounced is - brief and frigid enough : neither must we theoretically draw more important inferences from it than the instrument will allow. If the island in question has bought it; inelependence, it is a sign that the old supremacy de - jure was allowed. England bought the sovereignty of the Isle of Man twice over of . the Duke of Athol; if she should be obliged to buy, it a third time, it would be a proof that she allowed the Duke to have been thrice' Ring in hiS own person —that is, to have NvOrn'a triple crown—to have been Pope of the If France has sold its independence to St. Domingo, France no doubt *considers herself as having had in her own hands that which she has conveyed away for' money. [BRITISH PRESS 4 By the Paris Papers which received last night, it aPpears that the depression of the French fonds continues.' The Five per Cent's. closed on Satniday at 102 T. 20c.; the Three per Cents. at 71 f. 60c. This-sudden and extraordinary de cline in the valun of French stock has given rise to a multitude, of reports in the political circles of Paris.. A . change of Ministry seeins to be confidently expected. It is said that M. de villele, anticipating the event, had himself tendered • his resignation, and that his phfee' •had bp - en offered to one of his prede.. cessors in the departnient of finance. No artifice has been neglected to prevent the fail ure'of the plan for the-conversion of the Itentes ; yet, in spite of all the power and influence used to insure its success, never was any failure more complete The arrival of the telegraphic dis. patch, announcing the recognition of the inde pendence of Hayti,had evidently been caculated for the critical moment. But it had no perceptible effect upon the Paris exchange. The departure of the Messrs. Rothschilds for London, it appears, was delayed till Saturday. On the previous day they had another interview with M. de Villele. This conference, it is said, was not only long but animated. The Editor of the Journal des Debuts writes in high spirits. " If it were indeed true," he says, " that M. de Villele had resigned (and we do not see how he can remain in office),the public would find that the evil consisted in his presence alone. Things would of them elves return to order. Thank God, and the good sense of the re'ntiers, the Five per Cents. are not destroyed, and an able Minister of Finance who would, in stead of stock-jobbing schemes, introduce a sound system of administration, would at once restore public credit." He goes on to predict that in that event all internal dissentions would cease, and party spirit be extinguished for ever ! From these articles, however extravagant they may be, .it is clear that the enemies of M. de Villele en. tertain strong hopes of driving him from his post. tIIORNING POST.] French Papers to the 14th inst. and the Biotic of S , .nday reached us last night by Express. They contain no intelligence from Greece, and are almost entirely filled with observations on the recognition of Ilaytian Independence and the fall of the Three per Cents. According to pri vate accounts, that fall was so considerable that they came down to 69 frs. 50 cents, but af terwards recovered and closed at 71 frs. 50 cents. As only the last price is given in the Cours Authentique which came last night, we are not able to speak positively as to the previous vicissitudes which they may have ex perienced : but it is highly probable, not only that they have been as low as it has been stated, but that they will be still lower. 64 There will be nothing done in the Three per Cents." says the Journal des Debats, " until having descended to near 60frs., they actually return to the state of Fives. But then what will become of the Minister? It was reported yesterday that he had sent in his resignation : but this is not consonant with his habits. However, let it be sooner or later, he cannot help it, he must fall. It is evident that he cannot remain where he is. Whether there be a plastering up of his measure upon 'Change or not, the operation has failed, and has failed for ever: no efforts, even if they should succeed in producing a momentary re-animation, can give it permanent life. After such a failure a Minister must necessarily resign." It is cer tainly true that M. de Villele's situation becomes every day more and more critical ; but it is not likely that he would retire without having tried the effect of the second branch of his measure, the conversion of the Fives iuto Fours, which will not take place till next September. The Constitutionnel contains a letter from Pavia, which states, that at the interment of one of the Students killed during the late tumults in that city, the Gendarmes and Tyrolian Chasseurs made a wanton attack upon the young men who followed the procession and upon the people, and wounded great numbers of individuals. [THE PUBLIC LEDGEII..I Letters were received yesterday from Constan tinople, dated the 11th ult. at which date a report certainly prevailed there of the defeat and cap ture of Ibrahim Pasha; but the letters generally treat it with derision. Some of them, and those from the most eminent establishments in that Capital, do not even deign to notice it, whilst they look upon the termination of this long and sanguinary contest as near at hand. In the German Papers, which arrived yesterday, advices, ten days later ) are quoted ; and it is observed that they are wholly silent respecting the capture of the Pacha. In the mean time, some of our contemporaries have announced the receipt of intelligence from Zante of the 7th, and from Corfu of the 12th ult , which mention the defeat of Ibrahim Pacha, but say nothing of his capture. It may be proper to observe too, that they pretend to have received news of a later date from Leghorn, than that which first an nounced the overthrow of the Egyptian Chief, whereas it was merely the same news, though under a different form. For our own part, we adhere to the opinion, which we first expressed, as to the improbability of a report, in which there is the omission of date and place, and which rests solely upon the proverbially loose credit of the crew of a Merchantman. Our opinion is certainly corroborated by the arrival yesterday of letters from several of the Italian ports, and which were written three days later than those in which the capture of Ibrahim Pasha is men tioned, and they take not the slightest notice of the matter. We also understand that neither the Greek Deputies nor the Greek Commit tee have received any other communication on the subject, but that of which the Public are already in possession—no intelligence from Hy dra, or from Napoli di Romania, or from any other place, tchere the alleged transaction could have been verified. We have heard, however, that there is a document in town, purport ing to be the copy of a dispatch, dated the 2d ult., from Colocotroni to the Governor of Mis solonghi, in which he exhorts him to hold out a few days longer, as he should send him immedi ately powerful reinforcements, having obtained the most signal success over the enema ; but nothing is said in this pretended dispatch of the capture of the Pasha. We suspect, therefore, that the report, like many of its predecessors, will either prove to be utterly unfounded, or a gross exaggeration. LMORNING HERALD.] • • The decision recently pronoun Ced by the Court of Vienna, in France, whereby the will of a rich widow, who bequeathed all her property to an ecclesiastic, was annulled, is likely to be pro ductive of beneficial consequences to society.— There are not many who will be sorry to see that rapacious and artful " piety," deprived of ill-got spoils, that watched the bed of death with a view to take advantage of the fears and infirmi ties of the human mind. This practice which j brings destitution into families, and swells the reve- I nues of churchmen, who have forsworn the vani ties of the world,is more calculated than almost any other abuse of the sacred functions of a clergy man, to bring religion into disrepute. It was this practice, which in the dark ages accumulated the wealth of the Church, and impoverished its character. But too often the minister of reli gion, when called to afford consolation to the afflicted and broken spirit, planned, in the midst of the agonies of nature, the robbery of the widow and the orphan. He taught the dying person, on whose conscience the recollection of his misdeeds pressed heavily, that by bequeathing his goods to what were called pious uses, he could appease the anger of Heaven, and purchase, by the ruin of his relatives, the peace of his own soul. The house of mourning has sometimes been known to work a salutary influence on the hearts of vi cious and profligate men ; what then is to be said of the appointed teacher of religious duties, in whom its awful circumstances only excited the passion of ungodly gain ? Before the Reforma tion in England, so prevalent a custom was it with priests to extinguish the natural sentiments of humanity in their dying communicants, and to obtain their estates in this world, in exchange for the hopes which they gave them in the next, that the civil authority at length found it necessary to interpose and prevent all the property of the kingdom from being transferred, by will, into the possession , of the priesthood. Before the Statute against pious uses was passed, the more the priests blessed the memory of the dead, the more reason had their nearest relations to execrate them. The heir-at-law often became a mendicant at the gate of a monastery, for a pittance of the wealth which the cunning of the churchmen haft extorted from the dying grasp of his parent. Infants born to ample fortune, were made outcasts from their homes, and high bred and delicate females thrown on the cold charity of the world. It is, therefore, pleasing to every humane and well-regulated mind to know, that at a time, when priestcraft is attempt ing its ancient ascendancy in France, a Court of Law has had discernment enough to be aware of the evil, and virtue enough to avert it. [MORNING CIHRONICI.E. J A Meeting was yesterday held at the Town h all, Croydon, to consider of the best means of assisting the Society for the Relief of Discharged Prisoners. If, as was stated by Mr. Allen, the Magistrate of Union Hall, upwards of three thousand parsons are every year discharged from the prisons _of Surrey, and if there is a reluctance (certainly very justifiable) to em ploy discharged criminals, the disposal of this appalling multitude, in such way as may, while it contributes to the reformation of the individuals, relieve society from the dreadful consequences to be apprehended from thousands of desperate per sons, driven to the perpetration of fresh crimes to supply the cravings of hunger,—becomes a very difficult problem. We have not merely to apprehend the acts of the discharged individuals themselves, but the effects of the moral conta gion in corrupting others. Of course all that can be done by any Society, will go but a small way towards meeting so enormous a demand as that of 3,000 discharged prisoners; but as far as its activity extends the Society will do good. This fact of 3,000 persons being discharged from prison in a year, in one county, affords us a melancholy glance into the interior of society in this country. This is " a great and happy coun try" no doubt, as was observed by Mr. Allen, but the privations and demoralization of the lower orders form a sad deduction from its greatness and happiness. If besides those who fall by the hands of the hangman, and -those sent to the hulks and the Penal Colonies, 3,000 persons are every year discharged from our prisons, for one county of only 323,000 inhabitants, what must be the number of persons in it who have at one time or other been in confinement ? No doubt a great proportion of the three thousand annual discharges, consists of persons who have been before imprisoned, but.there must also be every year a number of fresh subjects. Kent, it is said, has fewer prisoners than Surrey, and other counties more remote have no doubt still fewer ; but making every allowance of this sort, what a fearful proportio►► of our population must at one time or other have bee►► within the walls of a prison. It is good to contribute to the reforma tion of, and to find employment for those who have been discharged from prison ; but it would be still better to diminish the supply of the prisons. Societies for the improvement of education, for instance, as was remarked by Mr. George Smith, are still better than Societies for the reformation-of the depraved. Prisons, too, lose most of their terrors, to a population, or any part of it, when n►isery causes thee► to be looked to as a relief. Now there are many thousand children in this very metropolis bound out by parishes, as-apprentices to factories, to whom dis cipline and prison treatment would be a welcome relief. These wretches having been called into an existence which to them is one scene of misery without relief, are necessarily beyond the reach of the law. HAYLIN G ISLAND.-To the admirers of pic turesque scenery, and to the numerous families ,who annually emigrate from the great Metropolis, and inland counties, to enjoy the more pure and invigorating breeze which arises from the sea coast, this Mane will shortly offer a pleasing and most delightful retreat. The advantages which it possesses so far surpass the present most popular watering places of the day, that doubtless the exertions of the present owners of property, and the spirited conduct of several Noblemen-and Gentlemen in the neighbourhood, to render it as a complete and desirable place of resort, will not prove unavailing. The formerly dan gerous approach to this Island prevented it from being generally known, but the late erection of a .substantial and elegant-built bridge has been the means of innumerable families visiting this truly enchanting spot. The delightful sands on the south side of-the Island, an d w hi c h exten d near l y fi ve m il es , un it e d w ith the sea prospect, comprising Spithead, the Isle of Wright, St. Helen's, and the shipping in Portsmouth Harbour, add much to the scenery of the place. Builders and architects are now busily occupied in digging and planning foundations, and erecting most elegant marine residences, several of which have already found occupiers, and the numerous applications which are daily made for sites of ground to commence building or., evidently shew how desirable a place it is considered, as well for the investment of capital, as for the beauties which it possesses. His Grace the Duke of NonFotii, we understand, early in the ensuing month, intends ,to honour the Island with his pre sence, for the purpose of laying the first stone of an elegant mansion, which is to be immediately erected for the use of his Grace. CORONEIIS' INQUESTS. RESUMED INQUEST ox DAWKINS, TUE POLICE OFFICER. Yesterday evening the Inquest on Nicholas Dawkins, the Police-Officer, was resumed, at the Triumphant Chariot, Pembroke Mews, before T. HIGGS, Esq., Coroner for West minster. Mr. Samuel Plank. Chief Constable of Marlborough-street Police-Office, deposed,' that he resides at No. 4, Chapel-place, Cavendish-square. On the evening of the 23d of May last, he was on duty at Lord George Cavendish's residence, at a party given by his Lordship. Witness took the deceased along with him to assist. The deceased was stationed in the centre of the yard to regulate the carriages, none of which had a right to come in unless called. A little after twelve o'clock he was informed that a man had been run over at the lodge, or yard-gate. He he immediately went down, and saw the deceased lying on the pavement just within the yard. He spoke to the deceased. Mr. Price, the Solicitor, objected to Mr. Plank saying any thing that the deceased said to him, as it could not be received as evidence, unless he was in danger. Mr. Plank.—l shall give what tie said to me in a way that will not be objectionable. , The deceased told me that he had been run over, and that his leg was broken. He (Mr. Plank) felt, and it was broken in two.places. From information he received, he took a man in custody on the following day..;--(111r. Price—That's evi dence.)—Lord Westmorland came up when he was speaking to the deceased, and he said that it was Lady Lambert's coach man that had drove over the man. On taking him in custody, he said that his horses had knocked down a man, but he was not aware that the wheels went over him. The name of the man is John Collins. He took him in custody on the Magis trate's warrant at his stables. The deceased also told witness that a Nobleman, with a star on his breat, came up to him, and he gave him his name. He understood since that it was Lord Westmorland. Mr. Price--Pray upon what sort of a warrant did you appre hend the coachman ? Mr. Plank—An assault warrant. Mr. Price—And he expressed great contrition at the accident having occurred ? Mr. Plank—He did. Mr. Price hoped that the Coroner or Jury would not leave off investigating the case until they had received every thing that would tend to elucidate the matter. A person was ha custody under the serious charge of murder, and if any thing could be heard that would be favourable to the prisoner, it ought to be received. The inquest was adjourned for the purpose of re ceiving the evidence of Mr. Plank and Lord Westmorland.— He thought that his Lordship ought to attend. The Coroner instructed some one to attend on his Lordship, and request his attendance. Mr. Jefferies, the surgeon, addressed the Jury, and said he was ready to answer any questions the Jury might put to him, as they did not appear to be satisfied with Mr. Pitman's evi dence at the last examination. Mr. Henry Jefferies, of Clarges-street, Piccadilly, deposed, that the deceased was under his care with a compound fracture of the right leg. He saw him daily for several weeks. He was properly attended to while in the hospital. He was attack ed with erysipelas in the leg, which gradually extended to the top of the thigh and buttocks, and a large abscess formed on the leg and thigh, and they discharged profusely. He died as patients generally do under such accidents. Coroner.—Were the bed-clothes changed ? Mr. Jefferies.—As often as compatible with his safety. Coroner.—Do you know, Sir, whether he received a hurt from the kick of the horse on the back ? Mr. Jefferies.—He had no hurt on his back when he came into the hospital. His sore on his back arose from his lying so continually on it. A relation of the deceased here observed, that he had been speaking to the deceased's wife, who informed him that the de ceased complained of his back, and said he was afraid the horse had kicked him. Mr. Jetferies said, the broken leg was the cause of his death. Thomas Dawkins, one of his Majesty's servants, brother to the deceased, deposed, that his brother (the deceased) was 55 years of age. He visited him every day in the hospital. He was kept clean, and was dressed every day. He would contra dict the statement that there were mushrooms growing on the bed. He was kept too clean for his situation. (Here there was great applause in the Court.) The deceased spoke to him the night before his death, and% said, " Tom, it is all Dickey with me. lam going ; lam murdered." _ _ Did he say by'w . ho‘m or how he was murdered ? Witness—Why, that Lady Lambert's coachman had run over him. He told me so several times. Coroner—Was he aware that he was in danger at the time he told you so ?. Ni r itness—l think he was. 111 r. Jefferies here said that the deceased was very low spirited as to his condition. _ _ A Gentleman here suggested the necessity of further ques tioning this witness, as it was the particular desire of the Go. vernors and Managers of St. George's Hospital. A very un favourable impression had gone abroad, and it was just to have the matter properly investigated. The witness answered, that he praised Mr. Pitman the drzsse, and he actually cried when he heard that Mr. Pitman was about to leave. The witness continued, that the deceased told him that while he was hanging on the pole of the carriage, the coachman whipped his horses on cruelly, and that when Lady Lambert's coachman called to see him, the whole mass of his blood turned. His brother was perfectly- sane the night before he died. The Saturday previous to his death, he said that he could not live many hours. He requested witness to tell " Gun" (his son), who is in the police, to get his place if he could, and that he considered he was murdered. He said to witness, " 1 hung by the reins and the pole of the carriage, and the coachman kept flogging the horses." He said nothing about the horses kicking him. Clements, the officer of Marlborough-street, stated, that he did not converse with the deceased while in danger. The de ceased said there was a mushroom found in the bed. Mr. Jefictics explained that the appearances on the bed might proceed from its having been placed in the garden to air. William Ballard, the officer, stated, that about a month prior to his death he went to see him ; he put out his hand and said, he should never get better, and he cried. He asked him how the accident occurred. He said, that he was in the middle of the yard, and was called down to the gate, and when he got there he found two carriages jammed in the gate-way. After some little to do, he got them partly back, and then one of them darted in, and, to save himself, he caught hold of the pole and the reins, and was driven back some distance, and then he fell, when both wheels passed over hi's leg. When the carriage passed, he tried to get up, but he fell down again directly. Rev. Samuel Clarice Goodwin Clarke, LL. D. deposed, that he was walking to his residence on the 24th of May, when there were two carriages jammed in the gateway, contending for entrance. They both kept whipping their horses violently. He called out to the coachmen that they would ruin their mas ters' horses ; they paid no attention to him, and he called out, " Officer, constable," when souse one in the yard said, " Put back ;" it was a man's voice. Witness passed towards the other entrance, when they 'both went back a little, when one of them renewed the whipping and drove in. The messenger who was forwarded to Lord 'Westmorland, stated that his Lordship was not at home, but had gone to dine in Grosvenor-square. The Coroner thought that the evidence of Lord Westmor land was very material, if he could with convenience attend the Jury. The Foreman of the Jury expressed himself satisfied with the evidence already received. The Coroner summed up the evidence, and the Jury, after about an hour's consultation, at half-past ten o'clock returned a verdict of—" Wilful Murder against James Collins." FATAL MISTAKE. Yesterday afternoon an Inqtiest was held at the Britannia •public-house, J amaica -street, Commerciahroad, on the body of Charles Trimmer, a bookbinder, aged O. It appeared that the deceased had been much annoyed by a hungry and noisy Tom cat, which visited his room every night, and not only disturbed his rest by caterwauling, but devoured his meat, and every other provision which came within his reach. —The deceased being resolved to get rid of this troublesome customer, sent a boy for some poison, and he returned with four pennyworth of ar , .enic, which he procured from the shop of 111 r. Doble in Stepney, and with this destructive drug he thought he should send poor puss into the other world. It so happened, that on that very day the deceased was engaged to dine with a Society, of which he was a member, and the trap was not laid. This good feeding, when at dinner, caused his bowels to be disturbed, and, to obtain relief, he determined to take some magnesia, but unfortunately mixed up the arsenic, and 'he died shortly after.—Verdict, "Died by accidental misfortune." Tuesday last died, at the Marsh. near Shire hampton, Mr. EDWARD PAINTER, aged 77. His death was occasioned by the stinging of a wasp, which was unobserved in a cup of beer of which he was drinking, and although after very considerable eflbrt•he succeeded in throwing the insect out of his mouth, he died of suffixation, in consequence of the swelling of the throat, within half an hour.
