SPAIN. 1rn07.1 EL ES PECTADOR.I REPRESENTATION OE THE MEMBERS OF A PA TRIOTIC Cl UB - I'HE CITY' OF VALLADOLID AND - or OTIIER CITIZENS TO THE KING OF SPAIN. Stnn,.—The undersigned citizens think that the time is arrived in which their sacred duty of looking not less to the safety of the State than to the:t of-your Majesty, authorizes them to speak a language which, far from being deficient in respect, ie. the sincere expression of the most ardent patriotism, and the warmest affection to the person of your _Majesty. Individual petitions ageinst'a particular abuse of power ought not in the present moment to be the object of'the declaration of free citi zens to your Nia;esty. Such declarations have rained like dew upon your palace, but they are either concealed from your view, Or receive a sinister interpretation ; therefore they produce no ether results than such es are contre.ry to expectation. " The unforseen fall of Gen. Riego may be considered as the exciting Ca,lS2; but it is not, in truth. the principal yor the sole cause of this exposition: his hit, wbatevet it maybe, cannever be indifferent to Spaniards who love:their 'country ; it is, if we _ may use the expression, identified with the constitutional system, and the whole nation- has fixed its , eyes on his prosperous or ad verse fortunes. Pui-lidty s Site, is the spul of representative go vernments; but although it were not so, neither justice nor policy would advise that the violent measures of' Government should be covered with the veil cf mystery, which, - althOugh they affect one individual only at first.. may - in time compromise, as they teally - heive coMpromised, the piiblic tranquillity. Let his crimes therefore be declared, if in truth he has been so misled . as to make an attempt againschis country ; and-let the sword of the law fall upon his -head, exhibiting before . the face of neighbouring nations an aet :of justice, which will at once Co hononr - to the Spanish name , anti to' the sacred code of our liberties. 'tut if, as it is to be hoped, and as it has happened, not for the first time, that he sheeild'turn 'out to be innocent, what iefererice are We to. draw frOiii his dismissal, which, al though-it is in the powerof your Majesty to order, ought not to be effected by mere dislike or caprice? The only inference is, that it has .been the work of the same. hand from which pro cee6a- the Uni-tist attempts conimitted doily by thoSe who held the reirs4oAverrinient.- . -that it has coincided with the peculiar tendency and sinister- end with which repeated appointments have been made and are making to the first offices, in the per. sons amen the most unfit for such, situations and disaffected to the present order of things--that efforts are made to oppose ti e spirit. of plosuliberal institutions by. which ,e are governed, in order that under their shade past evils may be perpetuated. On any other supposition, how can we explain the conduct of the Council of State, which, since the persons employed in the admi nistration of justice were suspended by the Cortes, with the in-, tention that,passing through the ordeal of examination;only such should be nominated- as are truly worthy of occupying poets so important, has them all indiscriminately, and without consideration of what repeated decrees had provided? This 4jire 7 j. 2 you will permit the expression, to give the INrational Congress a slap in thc.face, and to place yourself in diScordance whh its deliberations, in order to paralyze the majestic and tranquil progression which we have promised ourselves from a chanie of 'Government without convuision-J. Such may be said of that `of i'llePublican faction, Which has been sa often and 90 vainly dec lared,andthe assertion of which doubtless has no other object than to impose Upon the unvtary, to intimidate the weak, and to kindl. the fire of discord which. burns and consumes us. All these, Site, ara . direcipintS against the Constitution plots and .machinatiOns cOnceived.pe.rleaPs in the wretched clubs of a foreign policy, and seconded by those who have acquired an ascenilanefover the Meek anddocile - heart of yOur Majesty. Those persobs have endeavoured to-Jear up the constitution from the . SY4nishweil, bUt it is fitruly rooted in the hearts ofmore than two Miltit;iks;:fpaniards resolute and decided, and can only be rooted out fr;oin Spain . along with them. Such measures, Sire, conduct us "directly to a rivolution which has not yet begun.---to a revolution horrible to name, the epitome of all thecalamities of the - human race. Iforrible and i bloody :W0i4.1 it be, since the Li berales of Id2l are not like those 0f.1814 ; and what would be its con.sequer.ces ? We trernhfc when we cont2rnplate them ! like tempests, discharge their power preferably upon the most elevated points: What, then, would become of the se cred p='son of your ;Majesty :Who could answer for it then? . It is sacred and inviolable, - Sire; but that inviolability is not like that of the Alps and the PyrennLTS. can only beeffec-_ tive unde.r the shade of law and order. In a revolution all things are overthrown. In the same revolution died the just Louis XVI., and Le monster BObespierre. rte must speak plainly, Sire, since perhaps this is the only time for doing it. The persorr of your NI ajesty is sac - zed and iniinTable; .but a.s . long as that . great charter which secures you thatpreromtive is egablished, as. tong as Spain contains - tine enemy 'of: th at charter, it behoves you to act as if your inviolability did. not exist. By any other conduct your Majesty Will at every step be surprised, and ex. posed to a precipie What is worse, ierhatis, ignorance and malevolence will attribute to your Majesty torte plots of foreigners. Far, Sire, from your petitloners be the idei that you - r Majesfy can be the least involved in these plots; but, Sire, you are the image, and there will not'be wanting ignorant men who will im pute to you the faults of your priests, as thousands have imputed to our holy religion the vices of whidh they themselves were .guilty. Preiter - ve, tlietefore, your precio-ls life. - Proieive the vessel of the state, which is on the point of foundering. - Be a King for once. Place yourself at the head of that great na tion which, loving your Majesty with the greatest affection, de- serves in return the peace and the happinesi for ithlen it sighs. By not enjoying . those blessings at present, its memberi tremble and threaten arcomplete dissolutiQn by not has ing e joyed them in the year 1314, you• weremade to-appear a horrible monster of ingiat4ude ;. by not having enjoyed then' for t'le last six years, - you• have been the object of attack among fo reigners,-andof compassion among tho sound part Of your own subjects; and, finally, by not now enjoying them, you appear under constraint while performing an act the greates'..:, - the most spontaneous, and the most worthy of your megnanimous heart. Bea King, Sire, we repeat, and whilst the greatest and the best of men desire not to play the least part in the - history of Kings. " Condescend, Sire, to accede to the wishes of your falthful subjects, who thus supplicate you, and who incessantly pray to the Almighty to preserve the life of your 'Majesty through a long course of years for the good of the Monarchy.

The French Papers of Saturday and Sunday arrived at a late hour this morning. They bring accounts of fresh successes obtained by the Greeks at sea and on land.—Advices from Trieste, Genoa, and Frankfort concur in stating that a decisive action has been fought between the Greek fleet and the united fleets of Turkey and Egypt, in the waters of Rhodes, which ter minated in the total destruction and capture of the combined fleet, with the exception of two Turkish vessels, which have fled in the direction of Egypt, but are pursued by the Greek ships, which are better sailers, and will give no doubt a good account of them. In the Morea the fortresses of 'Fripolizza, Mouembasia, and Neocastra, have surrendered to the Greeks. Twelve thousand muskets and a great quantity of ammunition . were found - in the second of these :fortresses. The successes obtained by MIyOXET- PACHA in Livadi;l. have been of short duration, for it appears his troops have been complete!y beaten and dispersed. The Turks have evacuated Thessalia, their bad - suc- Bess in :which province and in Macedonia, have given serious alarm to: the Ottoman Porte ; so Much so that :certain reinforcements destined for Moldavia have' been " ordered to march to that quarter. The-Prince CANTAcuzEsAlhas . . joined the Greek array besieging Patras; and the Chief of the insurgents,MAnnocono.ki.o, the Cifs stendant of an ancient Greek family, and ‘s ho distinguished himself in Epirus, has been acknow ledged by the Greeks as their Commander in Chief in that province. —It is reported that a personage of distinction belonging to the Ca binet of Berlin, is about to proceed to St. Petersburg with dispatches of the highest Importance, said to he relative to: the at*, fairs' of Turkey. It would seem by the ac . counts in these papers, that Prussia and Russia mean to act in concert, and that in case of war the Porte, Russia will observe an armed neutrality. The decision of• the iluestiou pend ing. between- Russia -and Turkey is still as re mote as - ever; for the Russian GOveinm . ent, while it expresses its satisfaction on several points, such as the raising of the embargo, the re-establish ment of the free passage of the Dardanelles, insists - in the most formal 'manner on - more precise and categorical answers respecting many other subjects, which Are not sufficiently ex plained in the note transmitted by the Ottoman Government. It appears, that this new declara tion-.has been delivered to the Baron DE LEBZEL TEnN; the Austrian Ambassador at Petersburg, for transmission to Vienna, in order that it may be delivered to the Porte through M. DE "JUT' zow, the Austrian Internuncio at Constantinople. This document has been accordingly forwarded to the latter Alinister.—The intelligence respecting the yellow fever in Spain is in some respects more consolatory. Letters from Barcelona of the 15th state, that the atmosphere had been cooled by a gentle rain, and that hopes were entertained the violence of the fever would be abated. Barcelona is surrounded by a cordon, which prevents the departure of any, of the inhabitants from that city. Nothing certain is known respecting the number of victims in the town, but at Barcelonetta from 12 to 15 are carried off' daily. Advices from Lyons of the 25th say,lbat news has just arrived that all the sick at Marseilles are convalescent, and that no new-.cases had occurred. The Moniteur contains a Royal ordinance regulating the mea sures to be adopted an the frontiers to prevent the entrance into Prance of any persons from Spain who are not furnished with certificates of health. The execution of these measures is ri gidly enforced, and gives us every reason to hope that this destructive malady will not be dissemi nated in France. assurances, that the Constitution of 1117 ensures to the States a degree of peace and conter.t st:perior to that possessed by them under any other anterior form of Government, and also his Ma jesty's confidence, that so-long as the Legislative Assembly shall lend its aid to maiptei - in that CottstitritiOn inviolate, the attempts of the discontented and factious ceik,9nly redeirratto their own ruin anstelisgiace. - - ' " A Proclamation of Major-General. Sir Frederick Adam, Lord High Commissioner, pro tempore, in the States, makes known his Majesty's full approval of the sentence . passed by the High Court of Delegation on the 17th February last, upon Antonio Martinengo, of Zante ; but adds, that this being the first time in which the opportLinity is afforded his Majesty of exercising the prerogative of pardon in cases of High Treason, and also on account of Martinengo's adVanced age, his Ma:. jesty has been g,raciously pleased to remit that part of the sentence which regards the twelve years imprisonment, .Con.: dition that Martinengo be banished from the states and from every part of the doininions of his Majesty for the period "of three years.

AMERICA. BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. A PROCLAMATION. Whereas, by an Act of the Congress Of the United States, of the 3d of March, 1615, so much of the several Acts imposing duties on the ships and vessels, and On goods, wares,and mer chandize, imported into the United States, as imposed a dis criminating duty of tonnage between foreign vessels and vessels of the United States, and between goods imported into the United States in foreign vessels, and vessels of the United States were repealed, 83 far as the same respected the produce or manufacture of the nation to which such foreign ship or ves sel might belong, such repeal to take effect in favour of any foreign - nation whenever the President of the United States should be satisfizxl that the discriminating or countervailing . duties of such foreign nation, so far as they operate to the dis advantage of the Unites States,.hav 7 e been abolished. And whereas satisfactOry - proof has been received by me, through the Charge d'Affaires of the United States in SKeden, under date of the 30th of January, one thousand eight hundred and twenty-one, that thenceforward all discrindnating or coun tervailing duties in the Kingdom of Norway, so far as they operated to the disadvantage of the United States, hadtbeen and were abolished. Now, therefore, I, James Monroe, President of the United StateS of America, do hereby declare and proclaim, -that so much of the several acts imposing duties on the tonnage of ships and vessels, and on goods, wares, ar I merchandise, imported into the United States, as imposed a discriminating duty of ton nage between vessels . of the Kingdom of Norway and vessels of the United States, and between goods imported into the United Statetin vessels of the said Kingdom of Norway and vessels of the United States, are repealed, so far as the same respect the produce or manufacture of the said Kingdom of Norway.

To-day, at one o'clock P.M., anchored the ship Thais; from the Captain of the Port I have received the following intelligence':—The Eng lish ship Thais, 450 tons burthen, Capt. ALBERT ROBINSON, is just now anchoring, corning from the coast of Peru ; he brings the news, that the best spirit is said to exist thronghout Peru, and that the cry is " Independence or death !"

[Extract of a Lett= froth Pore-au-Prince, Bth August.] Two days ago the cruizers of this Government brought into pert two small vessels, filled with desperadoes, who were fitted out expressly for capturing an American schooner that sailed from here lately; with 50 or C. 0,000 dollars in specie, bound to Philadelphia. Had these pirates succeeded in their object, it is probable they would have murdered every person on board the American. These pirates are is general fo reigners, but principally from New Orleans; amongst them are nine white men. SIR ROBERT WILSON.—As the dismission of this gentlemari from the Army is the daily topic of factious clamour against Government, it is much to be regretted that the charges against him have not been fully deVeloped. Whether or not any subsequent measures are intended for adoption we know not, but it may be fairly pre sumed, that, considering his importance to his party, his dismission would not have taken place unless there were strong grouadS of justifi cation. It is somewhat strange, however, that as the honour of a soldier, as well as the chastity of a woman, should be exempt from suspicion, Sir ROBERT WILSON himself has not come for- Ward in self-defence, tut sllonld leave his v dication to those who appear to be wholly igno rant of the facts in qUestion. We are told in deed that the Kniglit has demanded a Court Martial, but as. it hasi..been shewn that a Court - Martial, is of applicable to the •case, `which ought to\-be. known to 'Sir 'ROBERT himself, such a demand, if it has actually been made, is by no means creditable to him in. point of military knowledge,' or must have been made with other views. It would be wise, therefore, in his advocates to be silent till they are better informed, for if substantial charges should be brought forward, they will rather in- crease the difficulties of his defence than tend to clear his reputation. INSTITUTION FOU LAWYERS.—We recently inserted an Advertisement in recommendation of an EStablishMent of this description, which we heartily wish may be properly supported, as its success will be beneficial not only to the Professors of the Law, in all its departments, but to the country at large. As it appears to come forward under the protection of THE ME TROPOLITAN LAW SOCIETY, we presume , that it cannot have a stronger claim to the support of the profession in general. The object of that Society is, to promote fair and honorable practice, and preventing abuseS in the prdfes sitm.- It was too well known, that persons not educated for the law could obtain the liberty of practising as Attornies, merely by paying a small sum for a certificate; and that throughout the kingdom such persons' were to be found 'who united other callings with their Practice as Attgrnies, and thereby not "only brought discredit upon one of the most useful, and, properly conducted; one of the most honourable professions, but ex posed property ter imminent hazard, from ignorance, presump tion, and venality. This evil has been stopped, and the public are chiefly• indebted for " the suppression of the evil—an evil attended with incelculable danger, to the exertions of the Metropolitan Law Society, and its intelligent, sagacious, and persevering founder and secretary, Mr. ANDERTON.— It is shocking to reflect on the mischief and misery which may have been occasioned by the mong;el practitioners to whom we have alluded, and it is lamentable that people should have been so credulous as to entrust the disposal-,of, their property to such hsnds. What dangerous blunders must have been involved in the legal instruments which they pre sumed to construct; what law-suits must have ensued in re spect to Wills, Deeds, and conveyances of every description ! ! But this motley breed is happily now almost extinct, and it cannot be doubted that the profession, as well as the possessors of property, have derived great advantage from that laudable Society. The proposed new Institution for the ASSURANCE of LIVES and SURVIVORSIZIP3, seems also to be eminently calculated to increase the respectability of the Professors of the Law, as well as to afford provision for their families. Accord ing to the plan which has been submitted to the public it ap pears to have, been formed with due_ reflection, and to be admi rably adapted to the purpose. None but respectable members, it appears, are to be permitted to sulascrbe, and the subscribers are not to be limited to any branch of the Profession, but even Judges are to be included ; nor is the advantage of such an Institution unworthy of their attention and support. Judges are obliged to maintain a state suitable to their rank, and they may be inciunbered with relations, so as to leave little, in case of their decease, to those who depended - on the 4 r lives. It must be s o eLsirable to belong to such an Institut'ie,a, on account of the advantage.; which it holds forth to families, -that not only the inferior branches 'of the profesSion,. bttt the whole body may be expected to conduct themselves with : integrity in all concerns, otherwise they would not be admitted. But the plan submitted to the public, through the medium of the Advertisement, speaks 'so well foritself,. ‘ that we need only repeat our satisfaction that such an Esellilisilment is likely to be soon carried into effect, and our conviction that it will be productive of essential ad, vantage to the public at large. In our Paper of Monday last we made a few passing remarks on Education, in consequence of a report having reached us that the Lancasterian metbod of giving instruction had been relin quished in Russia. There are few subjects on which many persons have more indistinct ideas than this. The universal diffusion of knowledge being allowed to be highly desirable for the wel fare of mankind, as the most certain means of promoting the interests of morality and virtue, well-meaning persons, who have not, thought with accuracy on the subject, too often imagine that they are contributing to the diffusion of know ledg.e, by merely facilitating the acquisition of reading and writing amongst the poor, and that the extension of edacation, in the common accep tation of that term, as applied -to the elements of instruction, is a direct and beneficial addition to the general stock of human knowledge. But nothing can be more mistaken, and few things are likely to 'be . more injurious in their conse-: quences, than this fallacious and narrow view of :the nature, objects, and, effects, of education. The term, in its just application:embraces the developement of all the intellectual, moral, and physical powers,—in short, the i formation . , of the wiwle..maii, as respects the energy, in telligence, and 'integrity, of his character; and the same system, or method of corporeal and mental training -may be employed with the Sarno machinery, the same skill, and nearly the same success, fur the formation of habits of frugal Industry, active intelligence, and ,mo ral worth, or of habits of fraudulent ingenuity, criminal activity, and immoral licentiousness.-- The method and matter of instruction employed at Air..Ftr.LENßEacz's School of Industry at Hof= wyl in Switzerland, and at .Mr. OWEN'S esta blishnient at. New-•Lanark, are admirably con trived to develope the physical, intellectual, and. moral faculties of the children of the poor, and to direct those faculties, after a high develope went, to the furtherance of the gel:tend we...third, of society, and to the exercise of industry, frti% gality, and patience, the permanent posses sion of upright principles, the €.. act, ment of moral and religious duties, and, con sequently, the enjoyment of happiness throughout life of every one of the individuals 'so educated and trained:- It is quite • obvious that the sanic machinery and skill which distinguish these ex% cellent Institutions above all, other Sethinariegi might be employed with nearly equal success - To the cultivation of the intellectual faculties, fg.r the purpose of giving refinement and ingenuity to wickedness, or great activity to the mtisculqr powers, in order that the individuals might be the better fitted • for the bold perpetration of • crime—that the vi r t uo u s . p eas a n t ry of 'Mr. Fl:r7 LENBERG -might have been trained to act as a banditti, not less distinguished for the id` telligence displayed in their designs than *for the promptitude, vigour, and ..courage of their execution; and that the peaceful cotton. ners of Mr. OWEN might with the same pairrg which have been employed to give them. their present character, have ,been rendered the most dishonest wad dangerous population of the dis . trict, in which they reside. to taking any steps for the extension of ethication, therefore, we ought to consider, first, of what education, in the proper and extensive sense of the term, consists; secondly, of what are its legitimate and most beneficial objects, that is, what desc . ription of character it is the most desirable that we should endeavour to communicate to the pupils, and to render if possible permanent:—and . of the best, most economical, and most expedi" tious means of effecting, not a part, but the whole, of the object which we have determined upon as the most desirable to be accomplished• If we mistake the import and narrow fly. extent of the term education, and communicate, no t knowledge and fixed principles, but a mere apti" tulle and facility, under the name of reading and writing, of imbibing and diffusing error as well as knowledge--false as well ac true principles -- with indifference,—or if we confine our exertion s to the diffusion of mere speculative truth, withou t the addition of practical energetic habitq, we shal l • I most probably see muc h more ev il than goo(' arise from our proceeding. -If our object be in distinctly defined, or be in itself not desirable for its intrinsic excellence, the less perfect oar method of operating for an uncertain or perni cious purpose, the better, since in case of error or of wilful deviation from the legitimate pur pose, the less permanent or injurious will he the mischief produced. If on the other hand the design be wise, the purpose rational, the ell ject accurately defined and advantasr,eous• in itself, all the resources of science and skil l ought to be employed in the preparation of the details,—in selecting and giving efficiency to ale agents,—in carrying on the work to its ful l completion. Now, in England, by far the greater number of our schools have no other nb- ject than a partial and very' imperfect develop' meet of the intellectual faculties. Except fo r the small amount of practical knowledge Nvhii:h they communicate in arithmetic, and of practical utility in reading and writing, these school`, therefore, are of very little real advantage' 1 ° society. Many very forcible reasons, indeed 7 might be advanced in support of . an opinion that they are much mor e i n j ur i ou l t h an beneJ dal. It will be admitted, however, by all, that their object being impeifect, they are necessarnY impe:fect institutions, and not calculated to Pr' ). " duce' those desirable results which, with mor e enlarged views and more extensive machinery",. might with certainty bf , obtained from the sam e amount of exertion, and writh greater economy of expenditure. Other schools, in this country, such as theLancastcrian,.in addition to the same partial development of the intellectual facu ities as the former, and the same small amount of practical knowledge, g i ve , t o a certa in but veri, limited extent, habits o f ac ti v i ty an d e xactness, and some sense of m ora l an d re li g i ous dutl- Dr. BELL'S schools go a littl e f ur th er and 0 1 addition to the former end eavour t o i ns til certaio fixed and durable principles of c i v il and re.ligicn! s ~ obligation, as compatible with th e ex i s ti ng civil and religious institutions of this couutry.—V Cre , shall resume this subject to-morrow.
