LIE LONDON .10(JItNALS. DAMN' Ext, uct s from the Morning . Papers, Oct. 28, 1825. [THE TIMES.] We have spoken more than once lately of the -situation of the Dutch Government, in conse ,quence of the conduct 'of the Belgic clergy, ex cited and fomented by the Pope of Rome. This is a most unlucky occurrence certainly, at the present period, though we place much reliance on the temper and discietion of the King of the Netherlands for a happy termination of the rising •trouhles. People may express surprise, that " at this time of day," as they are wont to speak, such a personage as a Pope should he suffered to dis till b the tranquillity of States : but they should recollect that the difference between 44 this time of day"----that is, between the 19th century and 14th century—is chiefly owing to the reformation ,of religion in the various parts of Europe, and to the general knowledge diffused by that event ; and that where reformation has not yet penetrated, there ignorance, with its concomitant train of evils, is to be expected. The chief reason, indeed, why we have supported Catholic Emancipation is, not our want of apprehension respecting the spirit of Popery,but our confidence in the enlight ened minds of the great mass of the inhabitants of the United Kingdom, from which we conceive that we should admit our Catholic brethren to light, not suffer them to drag us back into darkness ; for, unquestionably, if Popery, and relics, and miracles, and saints, and indulgences, and abso lutfons, were to prevail again, the human mind would be again shut up in darkness ; the extin guisher of the Vatican would be clapped upon it, which it would require another convulsion of Eu rope to shake off. Had it not been for our Re formation, Bacon would never have dared to phi losophize ; and Newton, like his predecessor Ga lileo, must have been cast into the Inquisition. — The two greatest lights" of human nature would thus have been smothered. The Revolution, of course, could not have ensued, for all would have been Popery,—there would have been no Pro testants to drive the tyrant from his throne ; a crafty Italian would have ruled at St. James's, and carried away the first fruits of our lands to he eaten at Rome. Btrt not only do we owe to the happy Reformation all the domestic advan tages by' which we are distinguished above other States, but to it also—to the Reformation—are we indebted for our present political consequence and territorial grandeur. It is through the 'Re formation only that we are the great people that we now are ; for when the Reformation took place, we were sunk to nothing—we were but the 'nava nominis umbra. The statement of a very few undeniable facts will make this assertion perfectly clear. It is very true that in the " olden time" we were generally a match for France. But why ?—because we were larger than France. More than a third, and very nearly half of that kingdom, even as it is now constituted, belonged to us—was a part of us. Is it, then, to he wondered at that we could sometimes oppress the other part? Or, even placing England out of the question, is it strange that the possessor of Normandy, Britanny, Anjou, Touraine, Maine, Guienne, Poictou, Xaintonge, Auvergne, Perigord, Angoumois, and the Limou sin, should be crowned King of France at Paris ? The battle of Crecy was fought during an inroad into our territories ; the battle of Poitiers was fought in our territories ; the battle of Agincourt, in our territories. But France went on gradually stripping us of these provinces one after another ; she took our last hold from'us in the reign of bloody Queen Mary. Calais was a much more unap proachable place, and more difficult of conquest, than Dover : yet the French had taken Calais. Scotland and Ireland were both hostile to us; the former alied to our enemies. We were sunk, reduced to nothing. We were not a mouthful compared to what we had been. What, then, could save us ? Irappily the Reformation had made some progress among us. We were warm at heart, and that unconquerable spirit, which religion, and above all a true religion, ever in spires, was kindling and kindled. We were Protestants, and our natural rivals, France and . Spain, were Papists. The Chief of Christendom, the infallible head of the infallible church, be stowed, as he had a right to do, the heretic king dom upon his true sons. It was not absurd in him to christen the Armada invincible ; for, our position being taken into consideration, it was in vincible on every principle of hurnae reason ing. But who , can calculate on the issue of a war of which religion forms the animating motive ? Then sprung up the mighty Elizabeth— the greatest Monarch (notwithstanding her fe minirre foibles) that ever swayed the sceptre ; and with a sagacity more than human, mingling her existence as a Sovereign with the preserva tion of the true faith—lashing herself to the mainmast of the Reformation—on that vessel she securely rode the storm, and established the in dependence of her kingdom. Then were felt more than seen the sagacious counsels of a Bur leigh and a Walsingham ; and then blazed out the ardent courage of a Hawkins, a Frobisher, and a , Drake - . The Reformation was in every man's heart, and on every man's tongue. The Reformation saved us then, and formed also the nucleus of our future gandeur. The Reforma tion 'snatched the Seven United Provinces from the tyranny of Spain. With the Reformation the right of free discussion was introduced into the world—access to the word of God was al lowed—the Protestant interests in Europe formed the subject of every political discussion, on an arti cle of every treaty. We would advise the King of Holland to study, above all things, the history of this kingdom during the 'reign of Queen Eliza beth : it will supply him with a mine of know ledge. We shall conclude these remarks with the celebrated anecdote, which - evinces at gnu her deep discretion and the winning wit of her conversation, before the wiles of her adversaries, and the influence of female passions, bad made her jealous and severe. On coming to the throne, she ordered all that were imprisoned on account of religion to be set at liberty : upon which one that used to talk pleasantly told her, ' 44 The four Evangelists continued still prisoners,- " and that the people longed much to see them set " at liberty !" She answered, she " would talk " with themselves, and know their own mind." ,Happy change, when one Could talk with the Evangelists, and know their mind .[MORNING POST.] We received last night, by Express, French Papers to the '26th instant, and the Etoile of Wednesday. The latter contains advices from Trieste to the 14th, which confirm the previous accounts of the Turks having at length raised the siege of Mi-,solonghi. After the heavy losses which they had experienced in their repeated but vain efforts to carry the place by storm at the commencement of August, Redschid Pacha had collected reinforcements from all quarters, and left the provinces behind him almost entirely un guarded. This was a desperate measure, which, unless he should succeed in the final attack which he meditated, would expose him to the dangerof being entirely cut off, surrounded, and destroyed. In this great and last attack, which took place on the 21st of September, his numb(;rs proved unavailing, and he was beaten back with such slaughter, that he gave up the point at once, and retreated hastily no one knew whither, but pro bably towards Thessaly, in the hope of recross ing the passes of the Thermopylw before they had been occupied by the Greeks, and of re-entering that Province from whence his line of communica- Lion with Constantinople would - be uninterrupted.' In consequence of his flight, the heroic garrison of Missolonghi has taken possession of some of the works which he had left behind, and 3,000 Roumeliots have marched from the environs of Saloria through the Isthmus of Corinth into the Morea to assist in driving the Egyptian invaders out of its bosom. Meanwhile Ibrahim is closely pressed in the vicinity of Nisi by the Greek troops, whilst in Candia Ihe Turks are entirely confined to thefortresses, the insurrection having extended itself through the Whole island., The intelligence trom Spain does not. come down lower than the 14th inst. The influence of the Council of Castile had succeeded, as it had been appre hended, in preventing the publication of the long promised Decree of complete amnesty, and the abolition of purifications. But orders had been transmitted to the Inspectors .of the different arms, to employ in the army with out any previous purification all officers whom they might think worthy of it, up and inclusively to the rank of Captain. The advises from Paris itself state, that two companies had come forward to bid for the Haytian Loan : that of Messrs. Andre and Cottier, Jacques, Lefebvre, Mallet, Brothers, and Pillet Will, -whose list, having been filled up, had been closed for some days— and that of Messrs. Delessert and Co. and Casimir Perrier, which have been obliged to reduce by more than one third the subscription which it had received. A third company is also mentioned —that of Messrs. Jacques, Lafitte, Ardoin, Hub bard, Rothschild and Brothers, Pasavey and Co., Blanc, Collin and Co., Jonas, Haggermann, and Messrs. the Receivers-General, which not having approved of the mode adopted of the secret ten ders, while it designed nevertheless the greatest publicity, is said to have accepted the proposal to insure the minimum of the loan on any moderate terms, and offered to concur with the sale, if made by public auction. There was every reason to believe that the Loan of Hayti would be made on better terms than any of those of the Repub lics in the New World. [NEW TIMES.] We elsewhere give extracts from the French Papers of the 25th instant, which have reached us, together with - the Etoile of the 26th. The Three per Cents. appear to be again receding from the point of 72, which they lately touched. The remarks of the Journal des DAuts on the present influence of England on the destinies of the American world, are not very correct, nor grounded on very deeply considered princi ple, but are nevertheless flattering enough to us to make us extract them. "In those na tions, as yet virgin (the American nations) the most perfect civilisation of Europe lends its assistance to a powerful and energetic nation. The machines of England will work the mines of America, discovered, as we may say, for a se cond time. Steam-boats travel up rivers destined to be the means of easy communication, a fter hav ing been invincible obstacles. The banks of these rivers will in a short time be covered with towns and villages, as we have seen in our own days the New States of America rise out of the deserts of Kentukey.=[lt is so; the French Editor shews his knowledge of the orthography and geography of America.] Through forests deemed impe netrable, their enchanted chariots shall pass over railways, as on the roads of Britain, travelling without horses, and transporting at once, with an extraordinary rapidity, five or six hundred travel lers," &c. &c. There is a good deal more praise of the same kind, which, of course, we willingly accept. It is, at all events, putting mere politics out of the question, agreeable to find that Eng land is considered, in all parts of the world, as the most prominent agent in its improvement : in America in its physical—in Europe in its moral condition. [BRITISH PRESS.] The Paris Papers of Tuesday are filled chiefly with political dissertations. The tone of the Royalist opposition has latterly been peculiarly violent against M. De Villele. They accuse him of following a course which leads directly and inevitably to the overthrow of monarchy, not only in France but throughout the world. A whole continent of republics exists across the Atlantic; and, if we may believe the Journal des De'ba(s, nothing can save the monarchical insti tutions of Europe but the immediate recall of M. De Chateaubriand and his friend s to power. The phantoms raised by the Noble Viscount's elo quence will not, however, we apprehend, im press the French Court with that sense of impend ing danger which he professes to feel himself. Sup posing that there is as much to fear as his utmost exaggeration affirms, we doubt that his' would be precisely the counsel to select in order to avert the dreadful evil. M. de Villele seems to have adopted a cautious and temperate system of po• Hey; foreign and domestic, and he has unques." tionably the merit of adhering to it firmly, in spite of the clamour of the - extreme parties op pined to him. By a letter in the Aristarquc, it would appear that some improvement is contem plated by the French Government in the civil condition of , the people of colour in the French islands hi the West Indies. The squadron with which M. de Mackau went on his mission to Hayti touched at Martinique, and from the behaviour of the officers towards the people of colour, it is inferred that some great change is intended in their favour. This may be a groundless conjecture, but the late arrangement with Hayti renders it by no means improbable. The new Haytian loan, accord ing to appearances, will be contracted for on very good terms : we mast wait, however, till we see the biddings. The correspondence from Madrid in the Efoile talks, confidently of the speedy appearance of the amnesty. Some nego ciations ate also reported to be pending between the Mexitan and Spanish Governments. We can give no credit to these statements, for the reasons we mentioned yesterday. The news from Greece is favourable to the patriots. The Turks have been again repulsed in an attack on Alissolonghi, and the insurgents of Candia have gained com plete possession of the Island, excepting the for tresses to which the iNiahometails are confined. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] By the capture of Prome, of which the official details have reached the India House, comfort.. able quarters would be secured to our troops in the heart of the Burman Empire, during the rainy season. This capture is a new and signal proof of the excellent character of our Indian army ; for it had to overcome difficulties that were all but insurmountable, and to grope its way, if we may use the expression., through a country, almost impervious in some places, and of which it had not the slightest knowledge, except such as had been derived from the most 'vague information. Had it not with its characteristic enthusiasm, triumphed over those obstacles, it would have had no other alternative, we understand, but to measure back its steps ; as the territory which it had recently traversed, afforded not the requisite conveniences for so con siderable a force. From its present advantageous position, the army will be able to open the next campaign with great eclat, and indeed with a moral certainty of dictating peace to the enemy in his capital, if he be imprudent enough to let. the intervening period pass, without making con cessions corresponding with his humbled situa tion. The sacrifices that will be required of him, will be doubtless regulated, in the first place, by the consideration that he is the aggressor in this war, and in the nett by that principle in our Indian policy, which has been hitherto attended with the happiest results, and which sternly pre cludes any paciftvation, that does not contain triumphant proofs of our superiority. This con test promises, both in its details and final results, to be the exact counterpart. of all our former struggles, for the last sixty years, in - that part of the world. Its commencement had no lea. tune of affinity with that colossal Power, which, by unparalleled exertions, we have established in the centre of Asia ; but it was sluggish and feeble, whilst the Public, as usual, murmured, from seeing that its first opera tions bore no resemblance to those splendid proofs of courage, enterprize, and activity, which appear almost in every page of our In dian history. But the moment a sufficient force was collected from the different points of that vast empire, the scene changed as if by magic, and public feeling immediately took its hue from the accounts of rapid movements and brilliant successes, which followed one another in quick succession. The trophies, erected in the course of the campaign, .which has just closed, will stand a comparison with the most glorious monu ments which British valour and skill have raised in India ; and this contest already promises to be as honourable to our arms, and as favourable to the permanence of our power, as any that has preceded it. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] By the arrival of the British ship Cadiz at Gibraltar, letters have been received from Ma nilla to March 4, at which time no political change had taken place in the Government of the Philippine Islands. The Spanish frigates Sabina and Paz bad arrived, these vessels having sailed for that destination from •Cadiz in August and September, last year. The frigate Vittoria, having on board the •new Governor, who left Cadiz last .April, had not arrived at Manilla when the Cadiz sailed. The Union, the other frigate belonging to the Philippine Island station, was out on a cruise. The- English Funds were without interest, yes terday. In the morning Consols were 874 and 87k.. Exche quer Bills, par to 1 premium. In Foreign Funds there conti nued to be little business doing. Mexican Scrip, Bii dis. Co lombian Bonds, 7 , 4 Greek, 28 to 29. Spanish, I7A to M. In the other Stocks' there was no variation. The South Ame rican 'Mining Shares were higher, and kept firm. In the other Associations there was no business doing, except in the dissolu tion of the New Companies.—Vbid.). jMOItNING HERALD.] The Bishop of Bath and Wells, in the late Charge to his Clergy, has ,the following sentence, in every syllable of which we most cordially agree :—" A wise Government," says he, " will not desert the Church, whilst the Church remains true ,to itself. A free Government cannot subsist without Religion, nor. Religion without a Clergy. If only, my Reverend Brethren, we take heed to °IA' Ministry—lf only we walk worthy of our vocation, we shall never want the support of the wise and good."--A wise Government not only will not desert the church while the churCh is true to itself, but a wise people will not; and it will manifestly be the fault of the Bishops and. Cler gy of the Church of‘ England, if it is ever so de serted. But then there are in these words, " try to itself," much more implied than meets the ear —and much more, probably, than the Bishop himself (exemplary and right-minded as he con fessedly is) or most of his hearers understood them, to convey. If the security of the Church Could be maintained merely by an opposition to Popery, it could be secure - enough. There is no ' lick of zeal (very commendable zeal,) perhaps, in the' Bishops and Clergy on that score ; but some thing more than this wanting to render the Church really " true to itself." Is there no thing in the Church itself which requires re forming ? Is there no fault in the educa tion of its Ministers, in the facility of their ordination—in the laxity of their conduct —or the inspection and discipline it undergoes— in the unequal distribution of its immense reve nues—and in some minor points of its Ruhric and church service an adherence to which promotes and justifies dissent ? We suspect that there is a good deal wrong in all or some of these respects, and that to be really " true to itself,n those who have the government of the church should look to these points with more alarm and anxiety than to any thing they have to fear from concessions to Catholicity. We are far from meaning to join in any clamours against the Clergy ; on the con trary we should not call for a stronger proof of a de praved mind than a disposition to do so. But truth and clamour are very different things ; and while we readily admit that perhaps there never was a period when the general character of the clergy stood higher than it does at present, yet there are faults in the system through which they ar rive at their high office, which leads us to wonder how that system can possibly work even so well as it does. We allude in particular to the way in which the Clergy are educated. Any one acquainted, with this, and knowing bow much positive moral evil it contains, and how little moral good, must be astonished that our Church does not exhibit more numerous and striking instances of discrepancy among the priesthood than those which we occasionally witness. It is in vain for the most conscientious, the most pious or erudite Bishop upon earth, to at tempt to rectify this evil at the period of ordina tion, unless some means are taken to purify the stream at the fountain head. Is it possible to expect that there shall be that magic in the touch of a Bishop, that it •shall be able to transform into a pious, a zealous, an en lightened, or liberal Minister of the Gospel, a young man whose attention has been absorbed, and his health and faculties subdued by abstruse and almost useless studies, or oftener still whose time has been employed in one heartless career of intemperance, levity, and vice? We have no hesitation in saying, that as long as the present system of the Universities conti nues, so long must the Church of England st►rnd the chance of having her interests confided to incompetent persons; and so long will she cease to be in the words of the Bishop of Bath and Wells," true to herself." We shall recur to the other parts of this subject as opportunity occurs. What. we would in the meantime impress upon our readers is, that the Church has much more to fear from itself—from internal than from external danger. POLICE INTELLIGENGE. ALLEGED MURDER. Bow-sTREET.---Ann Shelton, 28 years old, with an infant in her arms, to which she gave birth only a fortnight ago, was charged with the wilful murder of Patrick Doyle, who had been living with her as her husband for several years, and to whom she had borne seven children. The deceased was in a public. house in St. Giles's, in ~company with a prostitute, about three weeks ago, when the prisoner came and whispered to him and went away. She returned some time afterwards, whispered again, and in consequence of what he said, struck him with a tin can over the head, and the wound bled profusely. A night or two after, Doyle and his brother gave her 4s. to buy some supper, but she refused to do so, and they were forced to go out and sup at an eating-house. On their return there was some altercation, and the prisoner said she would leave the house, but the deceased prevented her, and sat down, leaning his head on a table. The deceased then came unawares upon him with a hammer, and inflicted five blows'on his head, which caused his death, after lingering some days in the hospital. The prisoner seemed greatly agitated, and as the witnesses gave their evidence, exclaimed, " Ah t you don't tell how he broke three of my ribs, and was always getting drunk and going with other women." She was brought to the Office yes terday for a second . examination, but in consequence of her ill ness it was adjourned. ALLEGED SWINDLING ARYLEBONE.—The following case of alleged swindling was brougnt under the notice of the Magistrates at this Office, yesterday :—Five or six weeks ago Captain ***, residing in Gloucester.place, Portman-square, left town for Ireland, and Mr. Marsh, a house agent, was authorized to let his house for the time he should be absent. Accordingly two gentle men, the one Calling himself Mr. ****, and the other "to proposed taking the house.. They , referred Mr. Marsh, his agent, to Mr Richard Martin, the Member of Parlia ment, who being satisfied with the reference gave them possession. Captain *** had his suspicions excited while in Ireland, by reading in a paper sent him by a friend, a money. lending advertisement, with the address, "No. ** Gloucester place, Portman.square" (his own house), and in consequence he came to London immediately. An inquiry , was set on foot, and it was discovered that these gentlemen had, during the four or five weeks they had occupied Captain ***'s house, obtained goodsfrom various tradesmen, and,afterwards disposed of them under very suspicious circumstances. An, application having been made' at this Office, a warrant was on Wednesday issued for the apprehension of Mr. ***, but as yet he has not been i forthcorning. The house was searched on Wednesday, but both gentlemen had absconded. Yesterday, in consequence of information given by the ser vant of ***, a warrant was issued for his apprehension. TENACITY OF IRON, AS APPLICABLE TO CHAIN BRIDGES.—The following results have been de duced from experiments made in Russia :—" Th e best iron tried supported 26 tons per square inch, without being torn asunder. The bars began to lengthen sensibly when two-thirds of this power had been applied, and the elongation appeared to increase in a geometrical ratio with arithmeti cal increments of power. The worst iron tried, gave way under a tension of 14 tons to the square inch a section, and did not lengthen sensibly before rupture. liy forging four bars of iron of medium quality together, an iron was obtained which did not begin to lengthen until 16 tons had been applied, and supported a weight of 24 tons without „breaking. From these data, the Com mittee decided that the thickness of chains in a suspension bridge should be calculated so that the maximum weight to be borne should not ex ceect eight tons, per square inch of sectional sur face, and that before being used they should be subject to a tension of 16 tons per square inch, and bear it without anYsensible elongation." A horrible murder is stated in the French papers to have been- Committed at Castres on the 17th instant, on two ladies, an aunt and her niece. The .murderer is suspected to be son of the former, who is arrested. - OLD BAILEY, OCT. 7. bi ha l v A in O g F 'fbe RECORDER TR t a J k O e nH his N P seatA L I on ii . . h a nd the prisoners arraigned, the London Jury was sworn in' f his above-named prisoner having rendered in justificatier:' o f b IL was put to the bar, _on an indictment charging h an oool. stealing, on the 18th of November, 1824, four notes for I, ._„,, each, from the person of F.
