SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Notwithstanding the apparent inattention shown to Polish interests and griev..neea in Parliament. when the sul-feet Was lately brought before that assembly, we are well convinced that there is no question, not strictly speaking a domestic one, in which the pent le of Engl .n.l take.ao deep or vivid a concern as in that of the national sufferings of what once was Poland. The ease which has most impressed itself upon the mind of the British nation is .his viz., that the independent nationality of Poland was provided for solemnly by the treaty of Vienna. as at, essential ineredient in the general welfare and security of the whole of Europe, and that the stipulations to th it ffect have Since bet n thither itely vi.ilated in the grossest m .n -iter by the Government of the Czar of Muscovy. But, fr , in an article pub ish d in this, day's Times. it wouti appear that another of the p rritinning Pow.ra is loafe leas criminal in rs treatment of that portion of the Pobsti rice which an . vil de,tiny has placed within its grasp than Russia has ever shown herself, The Ceurt of Berlin is re. resented by the article fr. , m Posen to be rivalling that of Sr. Petersborgli itself in the work of denationalizing Poland. Under pretence, it is said, of - improving publi c instruction. " the Polish language has be. n btnished from the school.," and foreign institu tions have been forced upon the country to this slate eff et as in Russian R.land. although—and this is • most important fret—the guarantees of the treaty • V.enna extended to the oreservati of their nationality on I elial of sill the Fo ov:rices of ancient R•land so c•I cif 1 ef . e th e p a . thin. of 1772. and therefore actually covered the Ati,tian and P us-tan allotments as comploelv as those.of Russia. In conformity with this understandin: of he ti. ay. it is stat.ri that solemn pi oi. tier- held o•t in al --he P. us can pr-elarriations of 11-115 that t 1 e tartional indep. ndence and identity of that part of P.l,nd ot Which F. ed. irk Will.ain th.n took possession shou be set iiptilou•ls, respe. red. ah. r modes, neverth. leas, bes;tl s • hat of silencing the P.-fish lon mtg.., have leer. • red to by at.

It is true th ,t• Austria, who orivinally was -he least wi ling of the three d..spotie Governments to merl&e with the independ nee of Polind, has been leas reproachal.;e than any of them with tyrannical exercise of her usurpation. She is„ mitre over, less united by position and local interev with Russia, as well as more deeply :unveil by je douss arid apprehension of that encroaching power, than Prussia has horn, or is like)r to be for some time to come If the ereat Eng ish and Rene)• nations, therefore, desire to act by efficient means in resietance. to Russian tyranny, and on b•-ha , f of Pol .nd, their wisest. course will he to consult the defensive in terests of the Austrian empire, and co.eperate with th ii narchy for the removal of rl e Russian frontier to a suffirient distance from enua, which it now menaces within less than a week's mare''. The only way of realizing a project at once so palate le to Austria, and so beneficial to Europe, would he by re-establishing the Po land of 1772. so far as Rtoisia is eitaret ned, and interposing it between the dominions of the Cz tr and those of the Emperor o 1 Austria. It has been asked, would the latter consent to the surrender of Galicia, for the sake of so entire a relief from the pressure of Russia upon his northern, frontier ? The answer is, that Austria would find her account in d o ing so, as the s crifiee w- old be mod• rare, and the good immense. Austria, moreover, gr,vitates like Ru•s , a towards th, south, irate .4 of towai d. the west of Etirone, and in the breaking up of the bar barous emit ire of Turkey, will one day find indemnities, a'. well as securities, far out of compartson to G In the man rime, let not our G verninent or country lose sight of the cause of Poland.—Times.

Tile *man Parliament, though, in . bad times, it did many iniquitous thing s . never disgraced i tself by passing, a statute in favour ti this irithatims application of brute force to man our ships of war. We are aware that such high prerogative Judges as Lord Mansfield and Judge Foster have argued in support of the practice, not on the ground of any statute of Parliament, but upon that of established usage, by which every long continued abuse might be defended. The levying of ship money bad not Only immemorial usage in its favour, but the solemn opinion of the Judges of England, given on Hampden's celebrated trial. Y et t h ese i s not a l aw yer now in England who does not admit that such a practice was illegal, oppressive, and unconstitutional. So had the practice of issuing general warrants a long course of as age in its favour, but a decision of the enlightened Lord Camden put an end to that practice for ever, and the same Learned Chief Justice expressed his opinion in not unequivocal terms against the legality of impressing seam n. Sir James Graham's notions of justice and equal rights do not induce him to hwe any qualms of eon•cience on the subject. If the Royal navy were regu late t as it ought to be, able bodied and brave stilors would never be wanting to man it. Let the system be rlormed and the d fficulty of procuring a supply in time of need will exist no longer. What an outcry used to he raised in this country against the conscriptions of Bola pal te !

THE NATIONAL. GALLERY. In consequence of the reported intention of Government to abandon the original design of selecting one side Of Trafal. gar-square as the site of the projected National Gallery, and to convert the Chapel at Whitehall into an institution for the exhibition of works of art, a respectable assemblage of the re sidents in the vicinity of Charing-cross took place on Thursday evening, at the. British Coffeehouse, Cockspur.street, for the purpose of protesting against the alteration. Col. EV/iNS, M.P., on taking the Chair, said the primary object of the present meeting was to solicit Government to per severe in their original intention of erecting the National Gal. lery in Trafalgar-square. The motive for abandoning this de sign was stated to be economy. It had been asserted that 27,000: would complete the requisite alterations in Whitehal l Chapel, and as 75,000/. was the estimate of the building in Tta falgar-square, with about 40,0001. for the purchase of the ground, a saving, if the latter project was relinquished, would be effected of about 80,000/. He had, however, very little faith in estimates, especially when he looked at Buckingham House and Windsor Castle, which had cost the country such vast sums beyond the first estimates, and which were still un fit for Royal residences. The Whitehall Chapel was every way unsuited as a building for an exhibition of pictures. It had seen suggested as a mode to remedy the vital defect of a side light in viewing the paintings, that screens about 20 feet long should be placed on each side the windows and the pic tures hung on th'em, according to the plans of a gallery at Florence. In his opinion this would not only spoil the gallery by giving it the appearance of an hospital, but it would not answer the required purpose. He believed, however, from information which he had obtained, that Government did not mean to persevere in this plan, but to proceed with that which had been first projected. Several Gentlemen spoke on the subject, and the feeling of the meeting being for the adoption of the Trafalgar-square site, resolutiohs to that effect were passed accordingly.

Yesterday morning and afternoon the King rode out in his pony phaeton. Lord and Lady Frederick Fitzclarence and Sir Frederick Smith arrived at the Castle yesterday. This morning the Duke of Wellington arrived at the Castle. His Majesty reviewed the 3d battalion of Grenadier Guards (commanded by Colonel Lambert) this day, in the Home Park. The King left the Castle in state, under a guard of honour of the Royal Horse Guards, and was accompanied in his carriage by her Majesty, the Duke of Cumberland, and her Royal Highness Princess Augusta. Other distinguished personages were of the Royal cortege, among whom we noticed the Earl and Countess Brownlow, Pr nce George, the Duke of Wellington, Duke of Dorset, General Sir Herbert Taylor, Sir Wathen Waller, Lord and Lady Frederick Fitzclarence, Lord Falkland, Colonel Sir Charles Thornton, Colonel Wood, Lord Elphinstone, Miss Boyle, Miss Wilson, Mdlle. Marianne, Mdlle. D'Este, Miss Johnstone, and Lady Kennedy Erskine. Their Majesties were received on the ground with the Royal salute, after which the King inspected the front and rear ranks. The battalion then went through various movements, and fired by files, companies, squares, wings, and battalions, and concluded by advancing in line, the band playing " God Save the King." After the review the King was pleased to express to Colonel Lamb , rt his entire approbation of the sol dier-like appearance of the regiment, and the correct manner in which the various evolutions were performed. Thera was much fashionable company in the Park. COURT CIRCULAR. The Duchess of Cumberland, Prince George of Cumberland, and his Preceptor, the Rev. Mr. Jelf, and the Prince Alexander of Solms, came to town from Kew on Tnursday. The Duchess and the two Princes returned to Kew in the afternoon. Monsieur Van der Weyer, the Belgic Minister, Gen.

The Earl of Liverpool, the Ladies Catherine and Louisa Jen_ kinson, the Hon. Sir George Anson, Sir Frederick Wetherell, and Doctor Milton, left town yesterday, on a visit to the Duchess of Kent, at Norris Castle, this day being her Royal Highness's birthday. GERMAN PAPERS. VIENNA, AUG.s.—After the funds had for some days re. mained nearly stationary, there appeared the day before yes terday, without any particular cause, an extraordinary number of sellers, as not frequently happens, and there was a tendency to a decline in the prices. The speculators for a fall took ad vantage of this, and, after the reports they spread of riots in Paris were refuted by the accounts from that city, new and absurd reports, which this time related to our own state, flew from mouth to mouth. Thus the decline in the prices led to reports, and the latter then contributed to act again on the former. The consequence was, that we had yesterday the Five per Cents. at 94, and the Bank Shares at 1220. The false hood of these reports, of which it is not worth while to say any more, was of course soon known. The funds have to-day risen again,and to.morrow will probably be as high as they were before. The cold rainy weather continues without intermission, but the injury done to the corn and the vines is not so great as to give reason to complain of a bad harvest, or to doubt of a favour able vintage. The Danube is extremely swollen, and has in some instances overflowed its banks. A ship is said to have perished at Nuss dorff, about a league from Vienna. Letters from Bucharest, of the 231 July, say that the Rus sian auxiliary corps, stationed on the Danube, is in hourly ex pectation of orders to march back to Russia. General Kiss eleff had set out for Odessa. We have receive,i, by way of Trieste, letters from Syra of 6th July, which announce the arrival of King Otho in that island, where great fetes were. Tranquillity prevailed through out Greece. VIENNA, Am. s.—Five per Cent. Metalliques, 941 ; Four per Cent., 861 ; Bank Stock, 1,230. NAPLES, JULY 30.—The Duchess of Berry, immediately af ter her arrival at Palermo, expressed a wish to see the members of her husband's family, which is not only very numerous, but one of the most ancient and respected in Sicily. They all vie with each other to render the residence of the Princess as agreeable as possible. When she rides out she is received with all the honours due to a Royal Princess. Count Hector Lucchesi Palli occupies in the carriage the place of an officer of the household ; he sits opposite the Duchess, by the side of the Prince de Beuffremont, while the Princessa Beuffremont is seated next the Duchess. At the beautiful mansion of Prince Butera, at Olwuzza, her Royal Highness lives in a very plain and rational manner.—Allgemeine Zettung, Aug. 10. GENEVA, AUG. 10.—The complete pacification of Switzerland may now be considered as very near at liana, thanks to the unexpected energy displayed by the Diet, and its determination to occupy the whole of the cantons at Schwytz and Basle until the fate of those two States be definitivel, settled The hypo. critical disavowal ~f the conference of Schwytz is only a new tact to be added to the history of the intrigues of the Sarnean faction. A revolutionary manifesto was to appear if the at tempt of Abyburg succeeded, and papers exciting to insurrec tion had been circulated in great numbers in the cantons of Lucerne and Berne. The Diet has duly appreciated the act of submission forced from the oligarchs of Schwytz. In the spring of 1798, as in the autumn of 1822, those premature Swiss who boast of loyalty and patriarchal virtues, lulled asleep the vigilance of their enemies by capitulations which they violated as soon as they felt strong enough to re. commence hostilities. The massacre of Nedwold, on September 9, 1793, which became a subject of imprecations against the Directories of France and Switzerland, can be imputed only to the traitors who had misled the prevailing party by a feigned submission and love to the act of amnesty. The fears of a foreign intervention appear now to have entirely subsided. The Austrians have hitherto made no movement towards the fronti rs of the Tesin and the Grisons. The Governor of Neufchatel has lately set out for Cologne, leaving to his faithful allies of Sarnew all the responsibility of the first at tempts, in which he would have subsequently acted a part, in the name of his master, if success had attended the wishes of the Holy Alliance. The Ministers of Austria, Prussia, and Russia, assembled at Baden, have, it is said, addressed a somewhat peremptory note to the Diet, which it appears to have answered with dignity, as well as energy. The French Ambassador, on the contrary, has expressed a lively interest in the national cause, and much devotedness to the chiefs of the regenerated Cantons. The Canton of Valais has hitherto made no hostile demonstration or the least indication of treachery. Three or four thousand men from the Canton of Vande would occupy the country from St. Maria to Gondo. We learn from Basle that the consternation produced by the events of the ad and 4th inst. has been followed by general dissatisfaction with the Government. M. Buck hard, the Burgomaster, has taken refuge in the French territory, in order to escape the popular vengeance. The Diet seems to have come to the wise resolution of maintaining on foot an army of 22,000 men, until tie country be entirely pacified and secured against the danger of foreign intervention. FRANKFORT, Atm. 9 —The Corfu Gazette of the 20th Aug. says, that by the new treaty between Russia and the Porte, a corps of 6,000 Russians will occupy Jan.na, and put down the hordes of rebels who have spread disorder in the country in the name of the Pacha of Egypt. —Frankfurt Papers, Aug. 9.
