TEE LONDON. JOURNALS. [DAILY E.75.1 - RACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS.] [MORNING' POST.] The latest accounts relative- to the insurrection in the Greek Provinces (the most important sub ject, that now occupies the ptibl;c attention) re- P;re.4.4nt. the Insurgents a's being supported by ...that ingredient—money ; which the Greeks . of - seteral neighbouring countries readily st-nd to th? Ass3istFmce of their suffering countrymen. At - corestani-inople, no attempt is made to..conceal the extreme apprehension§ of the Porte ; and the .lanuaze of the . articles from thence tets forth teiter the means of defending the capital than those of regaining the, provinces. if these corn :lv-mica:ices have not - been written in extreme and unreasonable fear, one of the most important questions in European policy (namely, who shall command the Bosphorus and the DardanelleS ?) is likely-to be opened for a rieW 'decision, after •having been settled for nearly font' centuries. — The insurrection in 111achia did not threaten at first to affect the relations of more than Russia and Austria ; but if it be true that this is to be •a war of extremity, and that there can be no- Coinpromise between a suppression of the insurgents or of the masters . of Constan tinople, every maritime Power in Europe must feel a deep interest in the question; and we shall in that case have only to hope that they will have wisdom and integrity enough to arrange their re specti7,:e parts in it without a contest; 'That it is useful for England in: partiCular to 'have the Turks possessors of Constantinople, has been so long as undisputed maxim, that we 'suppose it must be true. Notwithstanding the maxim, how ever, and that our inclinations are certainly the revere of favourable to insurrection in general, we confess that were it in our power to suppress this by the Mere display of a talisman, we should very reluctantly so employ its magic. Here is not Merely a Government of force, the tyranny of which, as in - many States, is not greater than the condition of the people requires, but a Go -vernmeeit of force, savagely misapplied, and the barbarous despotism of which is altogether un necessary, as far as respects the Greek popula tion. "'Here the question is not between - a mild despot, in the shape of a sympathizing, unfear ing, unsuspicious Sovereign, and a thousand gangs of marauding revolutionary felons, calling them selves a Popular Government. In the Grecian Peninsula, at least, every Greek is at the mercy of every Turk—of the Turkish Officer of Justice for life and limb, and for all unconcealed pro perty=-of the meanest Turk for permission to breathe the air uninsulted. •Here, then; is an occasion on which the interests of other nations can.have no comparison with those of the strug gling.provinces, nor can any proficient in revolu tionary jargon inflate their resistance into' an ex ample elsewhere. • . Emonmx - c- CIMONICLEI .Letters were yesterday received from Madrid dated the Nth instant, mentioning, that . Som brero Arija, leader of the insurgent band in the vicinity of Burgos, had been taken with 3G par tizans, 8 of whom were mounted, and the rest on foot. The Cortes and Government were actively engaged in adopting measures for the suppression of : the mad attempts of disaffected and disap pointed individuals, whose nefarious projects of ty. re-action disturbed the tratrquillity of districts, though from the . fewness of their numbers and the abhorrence with which their treachery was viswed, by the people .at large, nothing more than temporary inconvenience was feared. The fenity, however, hitherto shown to the guilty, had, rather . proved an encouragement, and they had resolved to frame an act, similar in its 'operation to martial law, by which they coukl try and punish similar offences in ten days. Our readers will see, from our private Corres pondes)ce respecting Spain, that the Cortes have aioptecl what. our Correspondent justly calls Strong measures. They have decreed a levy of 500,000 men, and the creation of four armies, and the appointment of a Commission of five Members to . act with the Ministry during . _ the wan"- As soon as hostilities commence, the Poli tical Chiefs are to :have dictatorial power, and endeavours to overturn the Constitution are to be tried by a Military Commission, of which the sentence is to be. carried into execution within hours, if approved of by the.. Political Chief. In the preceding article, containing the substance of letters from Madrid of the Nth, it is 'Said that both the trial and - famishment of the offence is not to extend beyond ten days. Such are the deplorable consequences of the atrocious con spiracy of Kings against the liberties of mankind. The Spanish Revolution has hitherto conciliated the:friends of humanity in every country, by the ab sence of violence and bloodshed which has marked its progress. Other nations suffering under evils si milar to 'those from which the Spaniards had so successfully freed themselves, began to follow their example. The - despots were immediately it: motion ; and—leaguing with those who pro fited by abuses and Misgovernment, and who from their' rank and the situations they filled.under ti - e• old system, which they were generally al lowed to retain, possessed but too much power of doing - mischief—they trampled the new-born liberties of the people under foot, and re-esta blished the former despotism at the point of the 6-gionet—telling us, by way of insult to our un derstandings, that the counter-revolution so qffoted was the earnest wish and desire of the people themselves. If the•peoPleof Naples and I , iedmont themselves wished. a counter-revolu tion, it would have been all very well ; but that they did not 'is proved by the necessity, of sending an . Austrian army to effect it in 'both countries. The Spaniards have seen all .this; they know the sentiments of • the Confederacy of Despots with respect. to their Constitu tion ; they -know that it is proscribed ;, they see the partisans of the Alliance 'at work' among themselves ; -they know., that the Laybach Con gress is to continue its Sittings, and they are told in .an expressive article from_ its organ at Vienna, that" it is possible that the affairs of Spain will tbe foreign.tO'the assembly." Threatened in •Inanner,.:.and .surrounded with dangers on every hand, are we to wonder if the Spaniards in' their alarm have recourse to measures of harsh ness and'severity Can we expect that a people, irritated by the incessant attacks to which they are exposed, should on all occasions preserve the utmost calmness and eglianimity ? Do we forget, too, what is due to self-defence? And what we have always ourselves done when the safety of the country was'eudangered by rebellion,aidefi by foreign Arms ? [MORNING HERALD.] If we may trust the representations from vari ous quarters, not only the Greek nation. bAt all those professing the Greek rite in the Turkish provinces, are engaged in a general bond of in surrection.' The youths, 'also, who were resident temporarily in Russia and Germany for the pur poses of commerce or education, are flocking to the national standard. Still, it must be confess ed, the reported numbers of Prince Ypsi lanti's army is inconsiderable, and the only affairs that have shed blood in the cause, have been instances of surprise and carnage, rather than trials of resolution. The modern Greeks have been exalted and decried ; hut it is not a little to their credit that they retain any of the stamina of their ancestors. Centuries of slavery undor Goths and Turks would ultimately = debase the noblest elements of national character. It would be gratifying to see them relieved from -the con temptuous domination of the Turks. But will they be able to maintain their independence ? We can really see little to rejoice in the parti tion of the emancipated Greeks under the yoke of Austria and Russia. The adequacy of their means of emancipation is also a melancholy ques tion—the retribution would be terrible. • [BRITISH PRESS.] The war which either now rages, or is on the eve Of raging in Turkey and Greece, is to be regarded less in the light of a revo lutionary . enterprise by a portion of the people against their Government, than of a national war between two distinct people. —The Greeks profess no desire, so far as can be collected from the very vague accounts which have hitherto reached this country, to al ter or modify the form of the Ottoman Govern ment, or by controlling the authority of the Grand Seignor, to improve the general condition of the people. They proceed upon no spirit emanating from the revolutions that have oc curred in Spain, Portugal, or Naples, their sole object'i.s to obtain the independence of the Chris tian provinces of the empire from tile, general tyranny of the Turks. The inhabitants of these provinces are all individually interested in the success of this object. and every Turk, no mat ter how much cause he may have to lament the brutality of his native government, feels himself bound by sentiments of national pride and pa triotism to confirm the chains in which the Greeks have so long reposed in quiet. As yet no Fo teign Power has manifested any disposition to in terfere in this quarrel, probably, among other causes, from a conviction that no principle urged by either party, whatever may be the result, can be 'productive of much effect on the condition of the neighbouring States, and from an assurance, confirmed by time, that Turkey and its pro, vinces, no matter whether united or divided, have been so long a negative power in the arrangement of European affairs, that no modification of their quantity can seriously affect the balance that is now established—provided that no portion of them falls under the dominion of either of the two great Empires which are more immediately connected with Turkey. Austria, however, has already drawn a strong cordon of observation along the north-western frontier of the Turkish dominions, and is ready to act according to the progress of events. We believe that by the Treaty concluded at Constantinople, in Ja nuary, 1809, Austria bound herself to gua rantee the integrity of the Turkish Empire in Europe, and, if we recollect 'rightly, Great Britain was a party to that Treaty ; but how far we are bound to secure the integrity of the Turkish dominions we are not at present aware. It cannot., however, be doubted, that if this Treaty of guarantee were then really exe cuted, the spirit of the treaty referred altogether to the preservation of Turkey from the rapacity and ambition of Russia. At all events, from the very nature of the present occurrences, the wssi bility of the dismemberment of the Greek or Christian provinces from the empire could not have been contemplated in the year 1809, and consequently England and Austria could not be required by Turkey to save the empire from the probable consequences of such an insurrection as that which is now in progress. NEW Public curiosity seems much alive to the part which will be taken by the Emperors ef,Russia and Austria relative to the affairsof Spain. Most deeply shall we r, , gret the necessity - for their interference, if such necessity should exist ; but when we turn our eyes to the state of that distracted country, we hardly know what shape to give our reason able wishes. History is - Philosophy teaching by example ; and the history of our own days has held up an example iu the French Revolution, which nothing but the extreme of folly can mis understand, and nothing but the' extreme of wickedness can dissemble. The FrenCh Revolu tionists began by the seizure of Church Property. Hoc fonte derivata Clades In patriam populumque ruit. = The Spanish Revolutionists—servile 'imitators of the Madmen of 1790—haVe rigorously - copied this injustice; the Portuguese Cortes are now treading in. the same path ; and The Morning Chronicle says, i‘ this is going to work the right way."—Let us coolly ask .ourselves whe ther such - conduct,. and the avowal of. such principles, be not calculated to force all Established Governments into a commonleague against the revolutionary faction, wherever it exists ? Is it not in the nature of a reproach to . our 'GoVer,nment for its firm adherence to, the pystem of Neutrality? " No funds," says The Morning Chronicle, " can with more prOP,riefy be - made available to the relief of a people from taxation, than those of an overgrown Church Establishment." Now we cannot forget that the 'seditious Addresses to the Queen, the still more seditious Answers to those Addresses, the in flammatory harangues of the Mob-Orators Hume and Moore, and the columns of the -Chronicle itself, have repeatedly held up the establishment of the Church of Ens land to public obloquy as " an overgrown Church Establishment" — The plain English, therefore, of the passages which we have qnoted is, this—" The trench, Revolutionists. did right in plundering their Church : the Spaniards and Portuguese are cluing right in plundering theirs—and we shall do right to plunder ours."—Now, we address ourselves , to the Whigs of England : is this a Whig prin ciple ?—it is a COnstitutional principle ?—is it a principle 'compatible with the existences of any established Government whatever ? Pro-. perty is altogether the creature of law, and the same law which protects the Churchman in his tithe, his glebe, his dues, offerings, and fees— the very same is the law which secures to the landlord his rent, the farmer his market price,and the labourer his hire. Violate this law in any one point, and you become a robber: break down the dyke at any one spot, and the revolutionary-flood will rush in, sweeping away property, liberty - , and life.—What ! then, it ma y be said, are there no bounds to, the growth of a Church Establish ment ? None retrospective, whatever there may be of a prospective,. nature. The question is exactly the same with every species of property. It is a possible case that there may be overgrown land-ownerships, as well as overgrown Church Establishments; neither evil, however, can come on all at once ; and wise laws may always be made (like the Mortmain Statutes of our ances tors) in time to guard against the evil. We will go a step further, and , fairly admit, that if Church property, or any other species of pro perty, has, in fact, outgrown its reasonable limits, it may be gradually and cautiously brought within those limits again. But Revolutionists, do nothing gradually and cautiously ; partly from the hungry nature of their passions, and partly from the dullness of their intellects. , The knaves are too rapacious, the fools too stupid, to make nice distinctions, and separate right from wrong, according to the peculiar circum stances of every case. [THE TIMES. Spanish papers and private letters from Madrid, bring intelligence that the public mind, both in the capital and at a distance from it, is in a state of much uneasiness and agitation. At Barcelona, the Bishop, with the ex-Inquisitor, and two other ecclesiastics of high rank, as also five general officers, one of whom bears the name of Campbell, and another that of Saaisfield, were ordered - by the Captain General and Junta to be shipped off for Mahon. No specification has yet reached us of the crime of which these official persons were accused ; nor are we told whether any thing but the dread of popular violence was alleged by the Captain General as his motive for arresting them. We trust that no Spaniard in the exercise of authority would be so forgetful of his obligations, both to justice land to liberty, as to sacrifice any number of his fellow subjects to paltry personal fears. In France it was the disgrace of Robespierre and his ruffians that they took men prisoners on suspicion, and cut their heads off as a measure of precaution : one of the reports to the Committee of Public Safety stated that 44 certain aristocrats had been taken up, on suspicion of being suspected persons!" But the downfall of that faction was near at hand. On considering, therefore, the mo deration, prudence, and integrity which have mark ed the conduct of the Constitutional Government and its functionaries, we are led to apprehend that some treasonable schemes must have been de tected at Barcelona, which it was a matter of necessity to baffle by the sudden removal of their instruments. For serious dangers to the Consti tution we were prepared at its outset, from the comparative insignificance to which it consigned the grandees, and from the loss of revenue, as well as power, with which it threatened the Church. The apparent sense of the nation and of the Cortes would, of course, keep down such natural enemies of the Constitution, except when circumstances might be presumed to offer a favourable moment to subvert it. The ruin of the public cause amongst the Italians was pre cisely such an opportunity as would encourage the diSaffected Spaniards. The Spanish quarrel itself was at stake in Italy ; for both nations were menaced with the same fate, - from the same source ; and from the like motives. Thig then was a conjecture at which it would be reasonable to look for symptoms of exultation on one side, and of anxiety and vigilance on the other. — We hear, accordingly, that in the Cortes on the 10th inst. a project of law was read and debated, for rendering the ill-disposed who attempt to subvert the constitution amenable to a less dilatory legal process than before. NI. Martinez de la Rosa proposed that the rules of proceeding in the Cortes should be adapted to the urgency of the case ; that the bill should be read a third time within four days ; and that the dis cussion once begun, should terminate only with the passing of the measure. The third reading was fixed for the 14th following.—A private letter, dated from Madrid on the 12th, enfers into the state of parties within the legislative body, and announces the multiplication of secret societies throughout the kingdom at large. ATTEMPTED StiectnE.—A housemaid in a gen tleman's family in Sloane-street attempted to destroy herself, yesterday morning, in a water closet in the house. She was discovered sus pended from a beam by a fellow-servant, and fortunately she was cut down in time to restore suspended animation. Pregnapcy was the cause of the rash act. DROWNING.-Yesterday morning a gentleman was bathing in the,Serpentine Itiver,-Hyde Park, when unfortunately he was setzed with the cramp, and immediately sunk. Some persons near the spot, Witnes.sing the circumstance; made an in stant alarm; and after several endeavours to save the gentleman's life, they succeeded in getting him out" of the water. Medical assistance was pro cured, but he was quite. dead. The body was carried to the Bricklayers' Arms,in Mount-street, Berkeley.square,.for the:Coroner's Inquest. - • Tilt BIRTH,-DAY. SCARBOROUGH, APRIL 24.—Yesterday (his MAJxsTy's Birth-day), the inhabitants of this town gave additional proofs of that loyalty and attachment to their Sovereign', for which they have so long and deservedly been distinguished. The morning was ushered in by the ringing of bells, which continued all day, and the vessels the harbour mounted their colours. The can- non in the batteries and about the walls of the garrison, were scaled as usual at twelve; after which the detachment of the 52d Light Infantry, stationed here, and Captaiti Moorsom's troop of Yeomanry Cavalry fired a feu de joie.—A select party of Gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous dinner at Morwan's Hotel at five, and the great room at the Assembly Rooms was lighted up soon after nine. The attendance was numerous and select, and the party did not separate till a late hour. NEWCASTLE, 'APRIL 9.4.—Early yesterday, in honour of his MAJESTY'S Birth-day, the bells of our several churches rang merrily, the town's flag was hoisted on the Castle, the guns were fired, and the ships in the river displayed their various colours. The 22d Regiment of Foot e and the 3d Dragoon Guards, together with Sir Tho mas Liddell's troops, and the Newcastle and Northumberland mounted and dismounted Vo lunteer Cavalry, were reviewed on the Town . Moor, by Colonel Sir lls i gh Gough. The gal lant Colonel took•occa:4ion, -on the field, to com pliment the Local Corps on their martial appear ance. The dismounted Corps were marched ; to . the Sandhill (on which a marquee • was erected), `where, in . .the presence of the Mayor and Magis trates, they fired a feu de joie, and afterwards drank his Majesty's health. • Yesterday being the day appointed for the ce lebration of his Alajesty's Birth-day, it was ob served in this town by the ringing of bells and other testimonies of respect. In the evening the Mayor entertained a large party of Gentlemen to dinner at the Town-hall.—( Liverpool Advertiser, April 21.) In consequence of the arrangements for ob-, serving the Birth-day of our most gracious Sove reign on Monday last, the wonted demonstrations of respect evinced the love and loyalty of his subjects. The morning was ushered in with the merry' peg of bells, and the British standard hoisted, as is customary:—(Cheltenhanz Paper, April 26.) • The Society of True Britons dined together at the New Hotel on Monday, in celebration of his Majesty's Birth-day. The company-, after en joying a most harmonious and convivial day, se parated at a. late hour. The bells of the Colle giate Church were ringing the greater part of the day.—(Wolverhampon Chronicle, April 25.) The 23d of April having been appointed for the annual celebration of his Majesty's Birth- day, the same was observed here yesterday by the ringing of bells, &c. ; and in the evening the Mayor (J. P. Holloway, Esq.) entertained a nu merous and respectable party at the Town Hall, where a handsome cold collation was provided for the occasion.—(Boston Gazette, April 24.) Monday being appointed for the .observance of our gracious Sovereign's Birth-day, it was wel comed in this city, by the ringing of bells, &c:as a testimony of respectful congratulation.--(Be. reford Journal April 25.) HIS MAJESTY'S VISIT TO IRELAND. The rumour which has lately been circulated, announcing that his 'MAJESTY will not visit us, is a mere invention. A. friend, who is in communi cation with a personage in a high Official situation at the Court, enables us to state the reverse. That his Majesty has been long anxious to see this country is true—that he is also solicitous to be come personally acquainted with his Irish sub jects, is a further proof of his sincere attachment to Ireland, and an animating reflection to all. The advantages likely to result from the royal visit are incalculable ; he comes unlike other Monarchs that have trod on our green fields—bearing love in his bosom, and conferring happiness in his progress. Let us for one instant trace back the page of his tory. In 11.72 King Henry 11. landed at Water ford, his evident object being to conquer—not by the sword, it is true : he bore, a talisman more powerful; before which courage withered, and pa triotism fell. He stayed here 6 months. King John touched our shores at Waterford also in 1210. His visit was promoted - by a resolution to punish our hardy ancestors, for daring to retaliate on • their invaders, and revenge the outrages then frequently offered to those without the pale. Edward Bruce landed in the north in 1315, and was crowned King of Dundalk. Robert, King of Scotland, came to Ireland the following year. Richard the Second, that unhappy victim to treachery and misrule, arrived .at Waterford in 1392.—James 11. landed at Kinsale, from Brest, in 1689,and met here the grave of his hopes and his ambition. K.William landed in 1690, in the pride, pomp, and circumstance of war ; but George IV. will arrive . in June, 1821, more in the quality of a welcoMe guest, than as the ruler of the land— rather to be cheered by the affectionate shouts of a truly loyal people, than to be gazed at with awe, as a Supreme Chief—yes, a Sovereign, whose real character is unfolding itself to his peo ple, will come to dissipate prejudice,to be known for what he is—the protector of Irishmen—the amiable philanthropic King, who would heal.the long bleeding wounds of his subjects, who would, banish forever from amongst us all heart-burn 'lugs, all moptifying distinctions between Catho lic and Pi otestant=who would reign in the hearts of his people,,and live only to be beloved by all. Such a King, and what is, doubtless a prouder reflection to himself, such a Man comes hither to 'receive the well known hospitality of dear and affectionate children—to justify his favourable opinions of Irishmen, and to, con , . firm 'those opinions for ever in his miq. We are convinced his Majesty will return to Eng land deeply impressed' With those flattering ideas of. us, with which strangers have ever depat ted, on receiving the last fond adieus of b.ospitality and kindness.-L(Limerirk Advertiser.)

MORALITY OF THE 'CHINESE chang, the General - in command of the Tartar district of E . -le, reports to the . Emperor the rase of Soo-kwo-tang, who was a Major in the army, and was broken for misconduct in regard to a cer tain female, while on garrison duty, under the command of General Ma,yu. Soo-iiwo-tong was • banished to E-le for three years ; and the time being now expired, he entreats for permission to return. The charge brought against Idm, and . for which he was punished, was as follows Whilst under the command of General Ma-vu, who was stationed at the garrison of 'naming, he lodged at an tan, Where he became intimop with Mrs. Toan, the landlady, With whom he frequently drank a `glass. It appears that at-, terwards he agreed with her for a sum of raorwy to become his concubine, and they lived in illicit i.intercourse at the Intl. For this very disgrace ful conduct be was taken into custody, and wade to wear the cangue for Iwo months, at the expi ration of which he was banished to. E.le. This took place in the 4th month of the 20th year of Kea-king, and in the 4th month of the present year the term of three years had been completed. The Emperor's pleasure was therefore solicited in regard to the criminal. The Emperor, on ceiving the report, wrote with his vermillion pen cil, that it was a most degrading and disgraceful affair, and that the criminal should not be permit" ted to return, but continue three years lo3ge r ° when the Emperor's pleasure would be know i 1 the Pekin Gazette).
