TIIE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAP.ERS. June 21. FMORNING' The Turks seem to have more than any other nation of what is called character. When rous ed, they are most tempestuous ; but in situations where the men of other nations could not con troul their tempers, they preserve a sangfroid worthy of a Roman, or reply, as in the instance. of Charles XII. With a sarcasm. The most important view is the probability which is exhibited of a war between Russia and the Porte, and the schism be tween Russia and Austria consequent thereupon. —We know not how far Ministers of this coun try would be disposed to interfere between the Turkish Empire, and the destruction with which it is now doubly menaced by foreign war and in surrection.—Pcrhaps the prevention of . Russian aggrandizement would be a motive for them to in terfere.---'phis country is certaini far from any obligation to the Porte.—On the contrary, the Porte - manifested an open predeliction for the in terest of Buonaparte—whose Minister, And reossi , was the most influential Foreign Minister at Con. stantinople. On the whole,. it seems a question whether that cumbrous, disproportioned, and di vided Empire will survive the crisis to which it is actually brought. [BRITISH PRESS.] - Mr. Hutchinson submitted to the House of Commons last night his promised motion respect ing the present state of affairs on the. Continent of Europe. The resolutions with which he closed his speech, and which contained in fact a•suin mary of the principles advanced in the course of his observations, are framed to express the con cern of the House at the avowal of pretensions on the part of the greater Powers of the Con tinent, " as novel as they are dangerous, and which are in direct opposition to the principles of our own Revolution, and to the independence of all other nations." They therefore propose au Address to his Majesty, requesting him to ute his influence to secure to the minor States of Europe their undoubted rights, and to remonstrate with his Allies on the assumption of the dangerous powers on which they lately acted in the case of Naples and Piedmont: The Marquis of London derry- declined entering into the question altoge ther, so that without any discussion the House divided. There appeared for the Resolutions 29 —against them 117. [MORNING POST.] Mr. Hutchinson last night again called the at tention of the House of Commons to the state of Europe. He went over(as on the former occa sion) the late proceedings on the Continent, and extended his views to the events of the late war. The Marquis of Londonderry in a short but pointed reply, demonstrated the folly of interfer ing with the Acts of other Powers not immediately affecting ourselves, and fairly represented the mischievous consequences which must flow from taking such a course. lie skewed that all the sub jects to which the lion. Gentleman had referred had previously been before the House, and therefore called for a direct negative to the motion.—Mr. Hutchinson seemed hurt by the home thrusts of the Noble Marquis, and did not reply with his accustomed good humour. He divided the House, and only 28 members were found benevo lent enough to go out with him, while the ma jority against his motion amounted to. one hundred and seventeen. The merits of Mr. Scar lett's Poor-Laws Bill were again discussed, and at a late hour an adjournment of the debate was agreed to. . • [TII E TIM ES. Were we to calculate the final prospects of the Walachian insurrection on the same principles as those of an ordinary campaign, the accounts from Hamburgh would lead us to believe that the Greeks have no further chance but in unreserved submission. Our own hopes were never sanguine as to the result of.any contest undertaken by that degenerate and nerveless people against Turkey ; and if the intelligence now transmitted through the above mentioned channel be correct, the laurels of Naples and Carascosa bid fair to be matched in history, nay overtopped, by those of Ypsilanti and his high-born followers. A corps of Turks, it is said, entered Bucharest on the 28th May, under Kiaya Mohammed; Pacha of . Silistria : the several Greek Chieftains and their troops hav ing, with much foresight, made room for the Ma home tans by running.a way on the 27th. .Ypsilanti, adds the Vienna letter, had not without diffi culty escaped. It is at the same time satisfac torY to learn, that the Turkish soldiers were not guilty of excess or outrage towards the inhabit ants of Bucharest, who had been apprehensive of a general pillage. The Austrian agents and sub jects had formed a guard, and kept the peace until the arrival of the Ottomans. To the ge neral descriptions of the state of Moldavia, which► . is said to be a prey to the most frightful anarchy and wretchedness, except where Turkish troops appear, to preserve order, and " pay ready money fOr every thing," it is possible that all persons may not give implicit credit. [YEW TIMES.] The, honourable and weighty testimony given by the Recorder to the legality and utility of the Constitutional Association was a pill which The Times could not digest. Hitherto it has been considered by all candid persons, that whatever may be the politics of a newspaper, whether loyal, neutral, or positively radical, it is a sacred duty to give an impartial account of proceedings in Courts of Justice, more especially in those which relate to the criminal jurisprUdence of the country: The readers of The Times, therefore, must view with indignation the attempt of the Editor to conceal from them the affecting and portant observations which fell from the Learned Judge above mentioned on passing sentence ou the capital convicts. The very reasOn why those observations were suppressed by •Thc Tit;te,r; is the reason why they should have been parti cularly noticed. It is because that able and ve nerable person paid a just tribute of praise to the exertions of an Association, which has been the object of so much shameless obloquy and unfounded scandal. [MORNING cnnomcr.t.] Sir John Silvester, the well knotin Recorder of the City of London, has it seems, in hiS prelimi nary address to the criminals at the Old Bailey, given. the world a proof of his : nice sense of the con duct Which becomes a Judge,'and of his sagacity as aphilOsophic inquirer into the cause of crime. At a time.when the question of :the legality of the self-styled Constitutional Association ,was Under the consideration of the Lord Mayor, be takes the above solemn occasion to go out of his way to pronounce it founded upon just and legal grounds: - lie availed himself of the same opportunity for delivering an opinion respecting the cause of crime, which will form a valuable addition to the evidence on the subject, given by him before the Police Committee. To indecent prints and blasphemous and seditious publications, " he had • no hesitation in asserting the great increase of crime, especially among the juvenile part of the comic unity, was mainly attributable ;" and he added, 's it was with the most unfeigned pleasure that he viewed- the 'establishment of an Associa tion which had for its , object the destrdttion of this monstrous evil." 'Was -Sir John, not aware of the existence of a Society which has long exer cised a superintendence over blasphemy and in decency ? The Constitutional Association origi nated among the patrons of the most indecent publication of the day, and the great advocate of the Association is also the advocate of that pub lication. In the year 1788 or 1789 a Society was formed for insuring from loss those who should prosecute felons, and many Bankers and others were sub scribers. Application was 'made.for a patent.— . This was refused upon the Report of the Law Officers of the Crown. After _this the Society applied to be .incorporated by charter, and upon the Report of the same Law Officers (we believe Sir A.... Macdonald and Sir John . Scott)• this was also refused. It is said that the opinions of. the then Attorney and . Solicitor General were; that no such Society could exist, or be permitted in this country. We wish that some Member . Of ParliaMent would move that a Copy of the nion of the Law Officers of the Crown at that time should be laid before the House. We Should then see whether the opinion giVen by Sir John Silvester, that the Association originated in sound constitutional principles, and was founded upon just and legal grounds, accords with the opinion of those Law Officers.—(lbid.) Mr. C. Hutchinson called the attention of the House last night to the odious proceedings and doctrines of the Holy Alliance. Lord London derry, who was termed Hutchinson a steeping partner in this Alliance, :seemed deter mined to let it be seen hat the contemplation.of their success afforded him high delight. Naples and Sicily, and the Circular from Laybach, are noble subjects of triumph for an Englishnian.— We leave his Lordship to the full enjoyment of it.—( PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. (From The Birmingham and Lichfield Chronicle, Jane 14.) The Coronation, it appears .from the Gazette of Tuesday, is fixed fOr the llith - of July; and the London papers are already filled with accounts of the preparations for this great national solemnity. We'haveno doubt that the known good taste of his Majesty, and the advanced state of the arts' in this kingdom, will render the approaching festival far more splendid than any which has preceded it. And' thus it should be. The proud pre-eminence .to which the country has attained demands it. And we should be ashamed to nee any 'sordid motives of parsi mony prevailing at such a moment. Whatever sums of money are expended on this occasion will be wisely and - beneficially employed in assisting the manufacturer,. in fostering the trade and commerce, and in. rewarding the ingenuity of our own countryrnen ; . and the result will be, a display of grandeur and magnificence, well calculated to impress foreign nations with an . idea of our power and unimpaired resources, and to.invest this important ceremony with' all those external circumstances of dignity and splendour which should Mark that.hour when the Scivereign of a mighty Empire publicly assumes his Crown. But it is not merely as a magnitilient pageant, as a proud display of the richrs and the taste of the nation, that we look forward to the Coronation. higher and holier thoughts are inspired by the - consideration of the real motive for all this show of Magnificence; The Coronation, if viewed in its. true light, is - a' religiaus ceremony of very solemn import. For then die Monarch receives his Crown in the Presence of Him by whom Kings reign ; and at his Altar swears to wear and maintain it for the good ofhis people. Then he vows that he will maintain inviolate cur happy Constitution in Church and state ; and then is an opportunity of more than ordinary interest and :value afforded toms loyal subjects,to pour forth their ardent and united prayers tq Heaven for his support in his great and arduous office. This, then, is • no vain or use lesa ceremony ; no insignificant pinn'eant invented merely to dis play the skill of our artists, the excellence of onr manufactures, ontne n-reatnos of our o:calth. Mean and narrow must be his . mind. who can contemplate it in thiS light only; and still more sordid must be the.character of hit, who can grudge the ex penditure which it will occasion, and turn unmoved. from its imposing ceremonial to calculate the farthings it may add to the amount of his taxation. We know • no higher, no more effectual obligation upon the conscience, , than an oath : and the wisdom of our ancestors determined that their Monarchs should thus bind. .themselves by a public sacred. pledge in the presence of God, a nd i n th e h ear i ng o f all that is great and dignified fOr rank and station amongst their subjects, to.reign according to the established laws of Ole kingdom, and to maintain: the rights, the privileges, arid the 'liberties of all their subjects unimpaired. That oath his Majesty is now about to take : an oath which will be registered in Heaver!, and in his own conscience as the guide of his conduct. We shall. hear no persons speak cf this as an idle ceremony, but those' who feel not the obligations of R e li g i on , an d value not the bonds of a religious compact. Some such there may be ; and. they may perhaps affect to curl the lip and shrug the shoulder, when they read of the preparations for this holy solemnity. But they are few ; and their voices, if indeed on such .an occa sion they . dare to raisz, them, will be drowned in those-heartfelt acclamations, those deep and earnest prayers for the life and safety of our gracious Monarch, which will then be pealed forth by a Loyal anti united people. We look forward then to the day ' fixed for this auspicious rite with anxious pleasure : we trust etarmt will occur to delay it further; and that it wi ll b e hailed, and pass /throughout the country as a day of National is with difficulty that we can prevail upon ourselves to return from these gratifying anticipations to the scenes of the passing hour.; to the 'complaints, and machinations, and fury of those who regard any manifestation of energy on the part of 105-al men as a declaration of war against themselves ; and shrink with terror from the first display of that spirit, which their long provocations have at last awakened. The whole in dignation of the Radials and all their abettors, high and 1 ; from the blaspheming publisher, to the writer who in the mur ky recesses or his. garret furnishes the poison which such crea, tuaes vend, and the: deluded readers who swallow it as a cordial anti a patacea ; all the tribe of evil spirits, black and grey, thingte their venomous ingredients. to prepare a spell potent 'enough to - relieve them from the dreaded influence of the (7on stitutional Association. But they win fail. The goOd sense and energy, of the nation will defeat them. Loyal and Wise men are fully alive to their situation; they know the evil withwhich they have to contend, and they know how to combat it without in.; fringing upon the real liberty of the press or violating the laws. They Cannot bepersuaded that their Religion, and the C,onstitu- Lea of their cinerary. are less valuable possessions than their hou acs or their g=ileaS.... They have, learned, by experience that they may lawfully, -and . can effectually associate .to p reserve t h em from spoil and deprtaation and they cannot be b u lli e d cu t o f , taking the same effectual measures to vindicate the purity of their Holy Faith from the insults and revilings of the Blas phemer, and to defend the Constitution and the Constituted AuthorttieS froM the vile attacks of the calumnious scribbler for hire, or the bolder inroads' of the *sties of sedition and treason. Mr. Ex-Sheriff Parkins thee.- may bustle, and look unutterable deeds of vengeance ; his legal man Friday n:ay cm- ploy all hiS special - pleading to wrest the laws to his purpose; the 4 Times' may anew its talent for logical disputation, and its less disputed poee.aa of abuse ; and the Morning Chroni cle' may pour forte the gall and bitterness of reckless and (Es , appointed ambitiOn ; but the good will continue to associate— and their united efforts, if d i rected with temperance and perae , vering firmness, will silence-the brawlings of the factious, and put down the combinations of those who are enemi e s alike to their iktonarch and to the Laws; to virtue, religion, and their.' country. EAST INDIA HOUSE. A General Court was yesterday held for the transaction of various public and private business. The CHAIRMAN laid before the Court certain accounts. Mr. lIrPIE asked whether the pension of 4401. granted to Col. Gillespie, stated) in the accounts to be for 34 years' service, was 'over and above the pension enjoyed as •a military man. He thought that Gentleman had not been 34 years in the civil em phiyment of the company. The CHAIRMAN replied, that the Pension was independent of all military service. Mr. Hu expressed a doubt whether, under the act of the 53d Gco. Ill ' . military officers were en ti t l e d to t hi s pension. He was afraid a mistake had been committed. . The Cit 111 31 A x observed, that CoL,Gillevie only enjoyed, as a military man, hail pay as a Lieutenant. To the legal qua.. tion he could make no reply, , and he begged that the - subjc:,.-:t might be allowed to stand over. The CirAiiimAN then declared a dividend of 54 per cent. upon stock, from 3th January last to the sth JUly next. MR. CANNING. , . , The CHAT 11 )I...said,. in . consequence or the vote of tha-nS whieh had been pasSed upon Mr. Canning by a Court of Pro prictors, a letter had been sent to that Gentleman, enclosing the resolution passed, and an answer had been received from. Mr. Canning, which should be read to the Court. The follow ing letter was then read : " .Gloucester Lodge, April 5. . " Sin—l have to thank you for your communication 'to 111e. 4 conveying a Copy of the Resolution of the Directors, agreed to yesterday by a Court of Proprietors, on the subject of the letter communicated to me on the 22d December last. I cannot but feel myself highly flattered and gratified by the concurrence of the Wirt of Froprietors in•the expression of'the Directors, and I request you will have the goodness to take a proper opportu nity of making known my due and grateful sense for so honour able and unloOked-for confidence and kindness. " I am, &c. " GEORGE CANNING.'' (Signed) Addressed to the Chairman of the Court of Directors. A long discussion took place with respect to the appointment of the Committee of by-laws and it having been communicated from the chair, that Sir J. 13. Walsh had retired, Mr. Richard Twining, jun., was proposed by the Chairman to succeed him. A question then arose as to whether the right of proposing such members of the Committee was vested in the Directors or the proprietors. 31r..11 Jackson, Mr. Lowudes, and others, sup- ported the right of the proprietors, and Mr. Grant, Mr. Pat-. terson, and ethers, that of the Directors . . In the result, Mr. Twining was appointed ; and that Gentleman .shortly i:eturned, thanks for the nomination. , . BIJONAPARTE. . . The CITAIRMAN having communicated to the Court some information respecting the pension ,of Colonel Gillespie, and after an observation from 31r. Hume, Mr. D. KI NNAI rim alluded to the . . claims of the- East India Company upon the Government, amounting to 11,4101., due on account of - recent expeditions. Ile imagined that a great por tion of that sum was due on accnunt of the expedition to St. Helena. A statement had gone forth from the mouth of the Chancellor, that claims had been made by the Company, a : eat part of which would be disallowed, This, he thought, argued either great want of 'foresight or of honesty ; he hoped only the former. The Court of Proprietors were naturelly jealous of these expences, and were anxious for their early re-payment, particularly with respect to tie expedition to St. Helena. The CirarumAN replied,'. that were was no understanding between the Government and the Company, but a written con tract had been drawn up. It was quite true that the Company had not yet obtained what had been expected (although not for want of asking) ; but the probability was i . that very' shottly'the accounts would be adjusted. The intention was, that in fcaiire these accounts should be annually settled.. • • Mr. LowxnEs regretted that so much money ha( en ex pended upon the support of a man who lived at St. He be lerit like a Nabob, and who was more deserving of other treatment. After some observations • from Mr. It. JACHS'ON relatlve to the pension of Colonel Gillespie, r. HUME remarked upon the increase bf the pension list, and alluded to the :payment of Terisions to Dr. Lumsden and Colonel Lawrence. , . ASIATIC PRESS. Colon:.1 STANHOPE postponed his motion relative to the Asiatic Press until the next General Court. Mr. HUME was anxious that the quesiiOn should be L.l.lewed to stated over for the present, as he thought the tilecus,ion would now have no beneficial effect. COL STANHOPE would certainly bring forward the subject at the next Court. He thought little danger was to be appre hended during the administration of the Marquis,of lia.stngs, tilt he was anxious finally to put down mental despotism. —The Court soon afterwards adjourned. • • Singular instance of Cowardly Desperation.—A very singular circumstance took place at Ha vannah on the 3d ult. The postilion or driver of a person of considerable note had been chas tised by his master for improper conduct ; reflect ing upon his disgrace, he grew desperate, pro cured a sword, and indiscriminately attacked every person he met with : be killed three per sons, one - a mulatto, and .wounded three others, and then attacked an oflicer,'Who very fortunately disarmed him with his walkieag stick, when he was secured. lie says be only regrets that•he did not murder hay ; and is prepared Co meet . . his fate.
