THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, Nov. 2, 1825 [NEW TurEs.l The removal of M. Zea from the post of Prime Minister in Spain, is an event which we cannot ?nit deprecate ; because, though perhaps not so enlightened as the Statesmen of a more fortunate zountry, he was for Spain, a miracle of intelli gence, liberality, and moderation. He was ac cordingly held in high estimation by most of the 'foreign powers, who hoped to be enabled through him to introduce something like order and tran quillity into the affairs of the Peninsula. To their support it was undoubtedly owing that he maintained his post so long; but he has at length been forced to give way to that in fluence which in Spain is behind the Throne, and greater than the Throne itself—the in fluence of the Church. There is an unfortunate circumstance which renders this influence of the Church almost -a necessary evil in Spain ; it is, that 'there is .no other body capable of stand ing between a despotic throne and the people. There is no, effective aristocracy, and the senseless dolts, who set up what they called a Constitution in Spain, laboured to extirpate the small remains of Arisfocracy still left. We perceive that one of these incurable idiots is even now writing a book: to prove that ale Constitution can be re established. Thus between the overwhelming power of the Church on one. side, and theabso- Jute drivelling insanity of the Constitutionalists on the other, there seem to be no elements in Spain wherewith a moderate man like M. Zea could construct a system .of rational government; and accordingly he could not have remained in place for the short time that he has done . had he not had a foreign support. It is true that the Duke del Infantado, who has succeeded M. Zea, is in his individual character extremely respecta ble. Hels anobleman of high rank, great wealth, loyalty, and unspotted honour. But we ap prehend he has been brOUght forward as the head of the Church party ; and if so he must go all the lengths of faction, just as General Alava, or any other ho-nest Constitutionalist, was forceil to adopt the follies of those bedlamites with whom he acted. One lesson we ought to draw from the wretched state, In which Spain is now plunged.' It is that the want of an effective aristocracy in a monarchy is fatal' to' real freedorri. By an aristocracy we do not mean simply a House of Peers, or a body of -titled Nobility ; but a gra dation of intermediate classes Possessing rank, wealth, privilege, and power, and capable. of holding the•balance between Prince and people. Such an aristocracy England has in greater Per fection than any other nation ; ,and accordingly our liberty is more secure than that of any nation ever was; while unhappy Spain seems to - know no medium between tine frantic anarchy of the Comunerqs and the uncontrouled power of the Chord!. ETII E M ES.] We received last night, after two days of in terrupted communication ; the French papers of Friday and - Saturday. - They are Mill - occupied, like theirarrnyon the other side . of the Pyrenees, with that puzzle of politics—that riddle of di plornacy.-----that eternal subject of speculation . and discussion—the state of Spain. More than two years have elapsed since the cessation of a war which was professedly undertaken to put down anarchy and to restore order—more than two years have elapsed since the leader of the inva sion had fulfilled the object of his mission, and: left the kingdom whiCh. - he• again' placed under the dominion of abs:Olute.' power—more than two years have elapsed sin'te the promised era of tranquillity had _commenced, and the alleged disturbers of the 'pit - bile peade ' had expiated their love of freedom in exile, in dungeons, or on the:scaffold ;• but we- still hear of an amnesty as a doubtful question, and see -prosCription the order of the day.' Two acts of oblivion; had al ready passed,...in , which nothing was pardoned,. and nothing 'forgotfenthe same discontent still prevailed, the' usual resources of a bigotled Go vernment had been exhausted, and a Constitu tional J - unta,was-' lately, _nominated to advise his Majesty and lirs Ministers' on the best means of getting money and obtaining quiet. This Junta, it would 'appear, :recommended the publication of anoth'er , amnesty,and the cessation of political persecutions, as one of the means of order; but the Council of Castile has opposed -this wise recom mendation, and the Ministry Isas.of course joined the fanatical party. One of the .Ministers having sagaciously taken it into his head that Fremasons are the-great. cause of - national anarchy and public misery, Iris demanded a more severe•set of enact ments against masonic aprons and symbols. But unfortunately, : the execution of a whole lodge, including all` orders of the craft, will not, ~like' that of x rich. Jew in the dark ages, replenish the Royal Exchequer,•and 'Ferdinand is obliged to look to a different quarter for the means of filling his; privy purse. The Dutch,'. it is said, having been afiplied to,_and Vying : refused .to ace:mi-no date any further so fraudulent a debtor, the Go vf.rnment of his Catholic Majesty looked towards Mexico for assistance., and offered to barter a useless_aaiM'Of sovereignty for a needful supply of dollars=. As the EngliSh had acknowledged this Re - Pilblic - without any equivalent, Mr. Lamb, our Ambassador, is said to be regarded with much dislike at Court. The Envoys of Sweden and of the United States are de, scribeo.s being very little higher in favour. In short, Rerclinar7d seems to be at war with half of his own -stthjects, and at variance with ,more than half hig7allies. - In the Mean time, his Consulta tive Junta, hiS',Council'ofiCastile, his Council ‘ of Ministers. v iiis,spkial,.cbOnlissibils-, and his cama rilla, are .all consulting, deliberating, re commending, sruggesting,, , ;dispotine, decreeing, waking .. laws, aiic,.: . fOrrykit.. l ' 10jeC'ty, : which Ore seldom heard of, - and never attended to beyond the ,ro,Y,al. patac . e.„or , the ,v,,7115 , „ z 0,f', Gopstitutianizq .sttit4 , its 5 . 91i T ifyit, ttt i lio,fit c y . of 4 : letter fibrn'Franfe l fbrythitt:fhe:hottordf ;R t ithschilsi , has cOntracttv•gor.a,OetvloViollle‘.Apm9 of Ans,trut.

[MO RNING POST.] French Papers to the 31st instant, and the Elate of Monday, reached us last night by EX press. The latter, we regret to state,'contains a telegraphic dispatch, announcing that M. Zea Bermudez, the most liberal and enlightened Mi nister in Spain, has at length been overturned by his enemies, and that the Duke de l'lnfantado has been appointed his successor. Though the Noble Duke has served nearly all sides since Napoleon's first intrigues in the Peninsula, he has for a considerable time appeared as the leader of the Ultras. His appointment -may therefore be considered as a proof of their regained ascend-. ancy. over the unfortunate Ferdinand, who, after having for a short period followed a course of policy which, held out hopes of a brighter era for Spain, will probably now revert to his former system of despotism and unbridled violence. It is likely that the fall of the discarded Minister may have been hastened, if not occasioned, by the exertions which he and his colleagues lately made to persuade the King to issue a Decree of general and real amnesty ; exertions, which .according to previous accounts, seemed on the eve of being crowned with complete success. The demand made by Commodore Rogers in the name of his Government, of a free passage for American vessels into the Black Sea, i►s now said to have been rejected by the Porte, ott the ground that it had been refused to other Powers. This is certainly a fair and sa tisfactory reason ; but - as it is one which the United States must have anticipated, it is strong ly suspected, and even feared, by the Turks, that the demand was only made in order to pro cure a denial, and to draw from that denial a cause for offence, and a pretence for openly taking part with the Greeks. This possibility struck us when we heard that such- a claim was to be put forth by the Americans, and we mentioned it at-the time. It is . confirtned,by the.apprehensions of the Divan, and in some degree by - the public recog nition Of 'the Greek Government, made de facto by Commodore._ Rodgers, when he brought his squadron to Napoli di Romania. The Porte, however, consoles itself with the idea that he would not proceed agiinst the Turkish or Egyp tian fleets without haviNg previously sent for or ders to -the United States. • But when a Com mander is dispatched .by a Government for the avowed purpose of urging a particular claim, he . is always furnished with instructions how to act in :either case of the demand being allowed or re. jected. There is no doubt therefore, that if Com. Modore Rodgers came to the Levant with the views ascribed to-him by the Turks, he is also armed with full authority to give them imme diate execution; That hostilities will take place between ,the United States and the Porte, is- as yet no more than a surmise, -which however bears strong features' of probability. Much alarm is also felt at Constantinople at.-the visit paid by the ,Emperor of Russia to his armies on the Turkish frontiers, and it is said to require all the faith which is - placed in the repeated assurances of the Atistrian Nuncio, to prevent Russia from being regarded at this moment as the Ally of Greece. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] : . The Paris Papers, which arrived last night, contain as striking an illustration of the debili tatingeffects of arbitrary power, as we gave in an article of the vivifying influence of rational liberty. The Spanish Government, whose peat, Diary necessities increase in the ratio of it's vexa tious proceedings, has failed in another negocia- Lion to relieve itself by means of a loan. The perversity of that power is become proverbial.:' sooner than act honestly, there is no mortifica tion that it is not prepared to endure; and it ex poses itself' to frightful embarrassments rather than practically admit the .principle that subjects ought to be protected in• their persons and pro perty against the invasions of lawless authority. Ferdinand, in following a contrary rule, is per haps as miserable as any of the victims of his perverse policy, though it is impossible to pity one who never feels any commisseration for the sufferings he inflicts upon others, and these the most enlightened and deserving portion of his subjects. Such is the aversion too in which he holds all, that is estimable for talents and moral worth in his kingdom, that he has thrown himself again into the arms of the Apostolic Junta, notwithstanding their recent treasonable plots; and it is to their influence that the failure of the new negociations for a loan is ascribed. It probably contained some clause, which it did not suit the views of these fanatics, who are evidently preparing , the overthrow of their system, by the furious zeal they display in maintaining it. What a contrast is there between the present situation of Spain and that of her late Colonies ! and all this arising solely from the 'difference of their political institutions. There is no other intelligence in these Papers, except on the affairs of Greece, and this is of so vague a character as usual, as to merit very little atten tion. However, one. fact is mentioned, as con nected with this subject, which is probably en titled to some regard—we allude to the state ment that an active correspondence is carried on between our Cabinet and that of the Tuileries, relative to the future lot of the Greek Nation. We easily credit the assertion that our Govern ment displays great atociety to render it as con formable to the. humane and enlarged notions of the age as possible. It appears certain, from a great number. , of concurring accounts, that the siege of Missolonghi has been raised ; and that the Turkish Seraskier, who directed the opera tions, has:retreated in the direction of Arta. The state of , the war in the Morea is still, however, the subject of conflicting statements., LMORNING HERALD.] A plan, we hear, has been submitted to Mr. Peel,-under the sanction of some of the Magis trates,for the county of Surrey, for doing away altogether with the , present Licensing System, ,and . opening the trade,, under proper regula ,tions, in a way that would at once defeat the , is destined to replace the bonds baneful monopoly of the brewers, and confine which four and a half per cent. the powers of the Magistracy to keeping good order in victualling houses, whether they be eating or drinking houses. This latter arrange ment is much wanted ; as it is quite notorious that while severe laws are passed to regulate ale houses, eating houses and coffee shops are the resort of the worst characters, and , are under little or no restraint. We believe the present Licensing System to be the most vicious, ar bitrary, and tyrannical of almost any power which is exercised in this country ; and the way in which this duty is performed by a part of the Magistracy, both in town and country, is such as makes it quite unfit that they should be any longer intrusted with it. In the metropolis this evil has now become in some measure inCorpo i rated with the Vestry System (its twin-brother in iniquity), the evils of which it, of course, cannot fail considerably to enhance. But so it is, that Parliament has incautiously suffered some of the large parishes to be formed into sepa rate licensing divisions, where a few paro chial Magistrates (most of them persons who ought never to have been such at all) assume to themselves the sole disposal of property to an immense amount in a way most harsh and arbi trary towards individuals, most inconvenient to the public, and detrimental to the Revenue:— That favourite brewers or favourite publicans may enjoy a monopoly of trade, new neighbour hoods are often left without a single public-house to afford them the necessary supply of beer; or else the supply is confined perhaps to one, who having no competition to contend with, vends whatever trash he or his superior thinks fit to furnish, the latter sending it bad enough at first, and the former re-adulterating it for his own ad vantage. The consequence is, that many of the inhabitants of these disticts are deprived of beverage, and the lower classes are forced to consume spirits, much of the wretched stuff called porter being only fit to furnish work for the apothecary and undertaker. In the country, especially in borough towns, the evil is still greater. In the latter, the local Magistrates are generally themselves the owners of, or, through their connections interested in, the greater part of the public-houses, and due care is taken that no interloper finds his way into the hallowed ground. And where this is not the case, the brewer generally contrives to be the client of the Magistrates' clerk, who manages their Worships in the way most conducive to his own and his employers' interests. These are only slight specimens of the mischiefs which flow from this accursed system. Were we to extend our view to the scenes and seminaries of vice, of crime, and of depravity, which are formed, are nurtured and maintained under the sanction of those who are the sworn guardians of public morals, the minds of our readers would shrink with disgust from the details. And ought then such a system to continue ? ' For its conti nuance, we confess, we see no plausible excuse. We are sure that the landed in terest ought not, for their own sakes, to countenance it ; and mer cantile men who adopt so warmly a system of free trade in other respects, cannot pos sibly justify to themselves the support of an exclusive system in this. We readily admit that places of public resort, which are neces sarily liable to produce insubordination, should be under severe regulations—indeed, the pre sent laws do not seem to be wanting on that head ; but we see no reason to suppose that if the trade were thrown open, these disorders would increase ;. while it would tend greatly to promote a spirit of competition in articles of universal de mand, from which the public at large and the revenue could not fail to be considerable gainers. Many of the Magistrates, we dare say, would dislike to be shorn of their power : and the brewers might feel alarm at the consequences of its undermining their monopoly; but on the other hand, a good Magistrate will be happy to be rid of a power which he knows he ought not to pos sess ; and an honest brewer, who makes good and wholesome beer, would soon find his trade increased where the retailer is at liberty to deal with whom he pleases.. [BRITISH PRESS. Mr. Hume has, we think, acted very judiciously in declining to receive the piece of plate prepared for him by the Glasgow Operatives, and by the Colliers of Lanark, Renfrew, and Dumbarton.— His exertions to obtain the repeal of the Com bination Laws were made on principles that were truly liberal, and he met the effective sup port of Parliament from the conviction, very ge nerally felt, that those laws were unjust in their origin, and p er nici ous i n th e i r e ff ect. A n earnest wish accordingly prevailed on the part of Go vernment to relieve the working classes from their operation, and to leave them free to act for the protection of their own interests in all cases where, under the Combination Laws, any at tempt hostile to them might be made on the part of their employers. But subsequent events have shewn how fatally the best endeavours may be perverted by the criminal misconduct of those for whose benefit they were intended. For this unforeseen result, however, neither Parliament nor Mr. Hume can stand responsible. The best regulations which can be framed involve no se. curity against treachery and faction. This is a consequence which must be met, and put down, like any other evil, with that firmness and deter. mination necessary to suppress it. When we speak of suppression, we advert only to such ille gal proceedings as require the interference of the judicial power ; for, with respect to the existing system of combination among the workmen, if left to its own course, it must wear itself out; and perhaps, after all, the best and truest policy will be for Government to stand aloof. If the neces sities of the refractory leaders are left to work their own way, they will be willing enough, not only to permit the well-disposed workmen to accept em ployment, but to come themselves to a fair and amicable adjustment. It is a subject to which le gislation cannot be applied with any permanent good effect. When the out-goings of the different Union Committees begin to exceed their income, they will come to terms without the aid of Par liament; this is the thread on which alone their existence hangs, and you must wait till it is spun out; conciliation will then come of itself, and not till then.—To refer the dis putes between the employers and their men to Magistrates--to empower the latter to adjust the disputed prices—is, of all measures of remedy the most unwise. The patients, herein, must minister unto themselves. The law—when it has applied its protective regulations equally to the masters and tollityworkmen—lias done all it can do with benefit o'd:frier:All beyond must be left to the reciprocal interest of the parties, forbere the minor details are every thing, and of these the Legislature can know nothing, and its enactments must, of necessity, be mischievous and misplaced. If the operatives imagine that they owe the repeal of the Combination Laws chiefly to the exertions of Mr. Hume, they can Tikeive no reproof so severe or so salutary as his:very proper refusal to accept from them any reward for his service in a cause which their conduct had made impossible for him hereafter to advocate. DIVING 13ELL 2 - 1 A ,patent has been obtained by THOMAS STE£LE, Esq. A.M. of Magdalen College, Cambridge, for some very important improvements in the construction and apparatus of the diving-bell. The improved bell will en able a directing engineer to descend and remain at any depth at which diving-bells can be worked without being subjected to endure the pressure of condensed air, and the working itself is rendered much more safe and effective, by means which Mr. Steele has invented for communicating by. conversation with those above, which will super sede the present imperfect and insecure system of signals by strokes of the hammer. He has further invented, by the application of optical . principles, an instrument for the stronger illumi nation of objects under water, and improved the means of detaching men .from the bell. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The audacity with which the names of men of rank and respectability have been inserted in the Lists of Directors of Joint Stock Companies, without their knowledge or consent, as a lure to decoy the unwary, almost surpasses belief. It was thought more than usually daring to name Lord Grosvenor on the Exchange as having been deeply concerned in one of the. Companies, when, as the Noble Earl stated in his place in the House of Lords, he had never held a single share in any one of the Companies. The. thing was altogether a stock-jobbi ng manoeuvre . A st ill bolder attempt on the public has, however, been made in the affair of the Gwennappe Mining Company. In the printed prospectuses which appeared in the Chronicle of yesterday, Lord Nugent is entered as President of the Directors. It was stated at the Mansion-house on Saturday, that his Lordship had been au extensive share holder, that he had poured his shares into the market while they were at a premium, and it was even insinuated, that having made a profit of the shares, he had Withdrawn his name from the direction to escape responsibility. Now so far from this being the case, it is stated on authority, by The Times, that Lord Nugent never had any connection with 'the Gwennappe Mining Com pany, and that his name had been used with out his authority or knowledge. This assuredly conveys a very lieavy accusation against the Se cretary of the Company, the personage who, ac cording to the account of the Shareholders at the Mansion House, had the management of the busi ness. The name,of that gentleman, according to the prospectus, is Mr. J. P. Noden. As no Nobleman stands higher with the public than Lord Nugent, this declaration of his utter igno rance that his name had• been used in the pro• spectus,consequentlyofhiineverhavingsanctioued ' A French Journal says--" Messieurs VAlG any such insertion, will afford very general satis- NEAu and VANNIER, Natives of France, who faction.

ANTIQUITIES.—Last week, the workmen, in levelling the ground near the new infirmary, at Chichester, in Sussex, discovered a stone coffin, deposited in the common mould of the field, about 18 inches below the surface. It is formed out of the coarse sandstone rock, common to the north of our Downs, and consists only of two pieces, the body and lid. It is about six feet in length, and somewhat more than two feet at its widest part, measuring from the exterior. In ternally it slopes towards the bottom and end ; being about 21 inches wide at the top and 15 at the bottom, in the widest part ; and 16 at the top and 12 at the bottom in its ❑arrowest part. It is 14 inches deep at. the wider end, and 12 at the narrower end. It is roughly hewn. The lid fits it very perfectly, and is let in with a small rab bet at the edge. When opened it emitted a very bad odour, and was found to contain mould about two inches deep, intermixed with minute portions of nearly decayed bone, and a few fragments of iron, like corroded nails, together with a perfect earthen jug, capable of holding about half a pint. This small vessel - lay on its side, near the larger extremity of the coffin.. It is of a very elegant shape like some of those discovered at Avisford Bill, in 1817. It resembles a small pitcher or old fashioned milk pot, having a handle and nar row neck, with a lip or beak, for the convenience of pouring on one side. The surface of it is of a dark brown colour, generally, but the whole of the wider part of it is overlaid and surrounded by a band two inches deep - consisting of white prominent lines, crossing each other diagonally, and forming a net work with diamond shaped openings. at the Mansion•house, barter the authority of his name for shares, and afterwards withdraw, when these shares had been disposed of. Those who have made thus free with his Lordship's name will, if we are not mistaken, find, before all is over, their speculation a very costly one. LAW INTELLIGENCE.
