TEE LONDON JOURNALS. [DAILY EXTRACT'S FROM THE MORNING PAPERS.] [Morning ile'ra4l.] No Paris papers, or other foreign' mail, reached us up to a late loom last night. We therefore' are still without further intelligence resprotlng the voyage of the King of Naples, or the inctelents which may have taken place in that capital, or any other part of the kirgdom, since the departure of the Ring. Literal copies of the invitation of. the Sovereigns of - Austria, Russia, and Prussia, to the King of Naples, and of the message of the latter to the Neapolita6 Paths-intent, will he found in atwitter column. The letter of invitation is couched in such getieralities that `nothing can be deduced from it: In a:unties docousent, the King pledges himself that " whatever variation may be required by circumstances re latively tee their actual political state, all his strength shall be exerted that it may remain founded on the basis of security of person and property—abolition of privileges of birth—taxa tion byreoresentation—rtecoutitabilit of the public expenditure ~. -legislation only with the consent of Parlianient—indenen deuce of the Judiciary power—liberty of the Press—responsi bility of Nlinisters—limitation of the Civil List—and, lastly, the King declares as follows :—" I declare moreover. that I will never canseut that . any one of my subjects be molested for any political act." Here are certainly the cardinal points. of a free Constitution. But if the King of Naples should protiounce hitn-elf, or should be . pronounced by the three great Powers, not to have been a free agent whilst within his own kingsioni, thi,s message, with the others issistd.ditritig the new order, might go to the tomb of the Capulets.— The Allies, sir, rather, the three Great Powers who have assumed a lead in this :business, are supposed to act with one or the other of two design----the utter extinction of representatiei. g.everillorti , or t antis (lifted The Lerner is an extreme which- we should hardly think !hey meditate ; .the latter is the inure likely course. It was the course pnrstied towards Flattce in 1 14 , When that kingdom was invested by foreign troops. Europe armed, did t bets hod it necessary to capitulate with tenth lion, rat het th to • attempt the re-ittipoStitioar of the ancient arbitrary system of Government,—and thutigh tome shocks, dissatisfaction., send alarms, have since takes) place in that country, yet neither France nor Europe have reason to regret that the pact was, made upon constitutional principles. There would be this one point of dissitnilitudr Ise wren the establish merit of the French Charter and the acknowledgment of the .C.ittstitutiorial system at Naples—that the former was . de elaved a free gift of the King of France to lies people, `a niece tenon of political metaphysics), whilst the latter was merely conceded by the Stiveteign to solicitation accompaiited by force. This is a question of abstract principle rather than of practical operatioti—and if the Neapolitans obtain a consti tution under the name of a free emanation front the Royal power, joined with theble•ssing of security and peace, they and the friends of humanity and freedurn may he content.-- It the seeds of liberty are SO.l, Mid their geoteth t.derated, lie matter from what hand they .came, they will ultithately gain strength, and perhaps more vigour and durability, than it the attempt were made to tratisphstit the constitntional system of Spahr, lull grown, its the very first instance.. That the Serereigns, whatever be their wishes, should attempt to vast. the new order in Naples, and punish its authors, as it is certainly apprehended, and openly menaced, is an exercise of mere force over right, which we carr hardly think possible in this axe. There is a spirit in the north of Italy which war would nochain, and of which Austria is well known tee be in 'no little terror. Still, therefore, we have hopes of the con tinuance of peace. [Morning Post.] A Mail from Holland has arrived, from which we have ex tracted an interesting article relative to Naples, con• tained in the Berlin State Gazette. This Paper, which bears every feature of official authority, seems clearly to define the course which is intended to be pursued by the Allied Sove reigns towards Naples. It is obvious that the Allies are averse to negociating with the prevailing party at Naples, because it " would be recognising the legality of an insur rection, the instigators of which were a secret political sect, and whose instrument was the army." It is further intimat ed, that whatever is to he done, will be done with the King o!' Naples when he " shall be in a Siete of liberty to intro duce into his kingdem another Constitution—that is, rap far as he shall be convinced that such a one is adapted to the Wants . and wishes of his people." There is nothing in all this. to induce a snpposition that the Allies will refuse to re -c,rgnise a new Constitution of some sort, when the King, in a state of freedom, shall inform them of what may be the genuine desire of that part of the twin,' whose wishes deserve respect. It will be seen by the State Papers given in another part of our Paper, that the King of Naples lost no time in communicating to his Parliament the invitation to him from the Allied Sovereigns to meet then, itt conference at Laybach, and that the necessary dispositions for his Ma jesty's journey were irnmediatelf made. Upon the probable consequence of the approaching interview it w o uld be pre mature at present to deliver adecided opinion; but from whet we have heard upon the subject, we deem it extremely proba ble th.at war will not only Ire avoided, but that Naples will bait: a Constitution founded upon rational principles of liber ty.--According to an Article froM Vienna of the 15th the de liberations at Laybach "are not expected to commence before February. It is added that the Pope had offered his media tion, stril that Cardinal Gonsalvi woul,', probably he present at the Congress, as the representative of his Holiness. [British Press. j Letters just received at Portsmouth .from Naples Bay, mention that. the Vengeur, 74, (Aptain F. L. Maitland, and the Active, Sir James Alexander Gordon, were expected to sail shortly for England. These ships, with the Liffey, Hon. Captain Duncan, were sent to reinforce our Mediterranean squadron in Naples Bay thiring the allied conferences with Jespect to Naples - at Troppau. It appears from the Paris Papers received last week, that the immediate destination of the Vengeur has been altered since the writing of these letters, as - the Vcn4eur proCevds to Trieste with the Kivu of Naples. Trieste kin the Golf of Venice, on the onpusite side of Italy. The Vengeur most therefore round the Peninsula,- It will probably prove a tediona rovne, and must be a pain ful one, under any circumstances . , to the poor old King, at this inclement SCSilnt of the year. [The Times.] An article, dated Bet lin, Dec. 19, which appears to come from an official source, ought not to be passed over unnoticed. The authorised writer undertakes to assert, that no idea was ever entertained at Trappau of negotiating with " the party prevailing at Naples" to change the new order of things. Now the party prevailing is the Neapolitan - nation and .though true, it is'.not decent to -acknowledge that a whole nation has been condemned unheard, andrumarked- out for punishment Without eieti -the form of a trial. As a reason. for this enor mous act of tyranny, it is said that to hegociate with the' Neapolitans would be to recognize the .` legality' uf an insur rection, time instigators of which were a secret political sect, and its instrument the army.," But must not every change of government, or reform of almoses, be brought about by the opinions of one in' more sects, acting upon the will of whatever body of citizens may hare pi n cer enough in their bands to of .feet the required reformation ? Suppose the standing army at Naples had taken part with the Court, and that both had been put down by the people,would not the Allied Sotereigns have exeLeimrd still more violently than they now do, against the unnatural rebels who had attacked the king's faithful troops, awl overturned the Monarchy by force of arm , ? It is a just and striking proposition, that a %stride " nation never can re bel;" and the hest proof that the great body of the Neapolitan pation was n party to the- rCroini•Of the inona,rchy, is, that the army, the poi lion of•tlie community most closely wedded to the Court, 'became one to , :ving and paysetful. engine for advancing time cause of liberty.

We are sorry that •a doctrine so iniquitous has any disciples; hut being entertained, we rejoice that it is avowed so clearly, since those—viz. the whole civilized world—who are exposed to its oppressive and disastrous consequences, have timely warning of the magnitude ofthe danger which awaits them.

The commencement of the deli berations at Laybach is not likely to take place very early, as the Emperor was certainly expeeteil at Vienna on the iSth la. and would remain there till the beginning of February. . . [Morning Chronicle.] If the pretence for interference with Naples a regard for the peace of Europe, it would be easy to spew that nothing is more calculated to involve all Europe in all the calamities of war than s uch au interference. The King of Sardinia, for one, would he placed in a most perilous situation by any at tempt on Naples. His army is well known to be friendly to liberal principles, and would never look tamely on while an Austrian Army was acting against Naples.— Span., which has long been connected With Naples, and wnich is now in, preciszly the same situation, would feel itself gunned to, interfere. The Government of France most pay some deference to the feelings aut.! inielluations •of the nation; and that nation will never sanction any hostile proceedings against Naples. The French will not - look tamely on while Any foreign power assumes the dominion of and least of all If that power is .knstria. The Govern ments the free and more 'part of - Europe, from a regard for the general peace, which is threatened by the pretensions of Russia, Austria, and Prussia, are called on to take such measures as are best 'calculated to ward off that calainity. It is certain that the peace of Europe cannot be considered secure, till the rights the people are every where secured by Constitutional Governments; fur arbitrary Governments are never willingly submitted to by any people, and the state of things under them is to be considered violent and tin nut oral, and therefore containing in it se lit he seeds of Revolution, The Constitutional Governments ought to de clare, that the ‘. Monarchial principle" - advanced by the three Sovereigns in question, is altogether irreconcilable with Eitropeattciviliz dim,: that the general peace. and tranquil lity can only be preserved by the admission of the people to Constitutional rights; and that those Sovereigns who refuse to admit their people to the enjoyment of these rights, are nrit . only enemies to mankind, -hut enemies to the tranquil lity of Europe. It is nut enuo4ll that the Constitutional Go vernments resist the particular claim of Austria with regard to Naples ; thew ought to join in reprobating the abominable principles in which that claim originated, and sit long as these principles are persisted in, to stigmatize the Sovereigns of Russia, Austria, and Prussia, as. unworthy Members of the European Social Union• MEMOIRS OF HENRY THE FIRST, LATE KING OF HAYTI. (From the British Monitor of yestmlay.) DEDICATED TO WM. wiLnEttroftcr, ESQ. bI. P. " C.:naive°Plie, alias HENIUI 1., late King of Havti„ was born in 1787. The place of his birth is not exactly known ; some imagine it to be the Island of St. Christopher's, whence be was conveyed to Cape Francois, and sold to an English merchant, •whose name was Badeehe ; others, that he was horn at St. Domingo, on the plantation of Limonaite, which then belonged to the celebrated translator, Durean de In Millie. However this may he, Henry Christophe began to render himself remarkable at the very . begi n ning of the trouhles of • St. Domingo, for his great stature, his harsh and fierce disposition, and a certain strength of character, which has since been the cause of his elevation. Being at first ap pointed as snperintendant over the negro slaves, he employ ed in this office a rigorous severity; but when the revolution broke out Christophe changed his character, and from a per secutor of negroes, became a persecutor of the whites. He was, nevertheless, hut little known before the arrival of Gen. Lech rc, its 1802. In the insurrections of the blacks, he fol lowed their troops, pillaged, massacred the whites, and bought at a low price, the booty of his comrades. He thus acquired a considerable fortune, and was enabled to become the chief of the band. Having assembled a small troop he over-ran the country, encouraging the rising of the blacks, and supporting them with bis arms; he thus acquired a species of t enowts. _ _ Touissaint Lonverture,. who was then General-in-Chief of the Negroes, made him General of Brigade, and cent him to fight against his nephew, General Moiso, a young officer not destitute of courage, but who aimed at supplanting him. Christophe had recourse to stratagem. He went over to Moise, pretended to enter into his resentment, and succeeded by this atrocious dissimulation. in obtaining his confidence,• of which he took advantage, arrested him in the tnid:t of his at my, and sent him- to Tonissaint. Moise was massacred by his uncle's orders, and Christophe obtained the command of the northern province in his stead. " .Moise had a great number of partizans. who only aspired to avenge his death. In the evening of the e 1 st October, there was an insurrection at the Cape, and the insurgents he gan to massacre all those who were noted fur their attach went to Toussaint. Chri , tophe immediately mounted his horse, attacked the insurgents in person, killed two with his own hand, dispersed the Multitude, and got the chiefs arrest ed. The plan entered into by Christophe on this day was executed with such' precision and prudence, that on the next day a great number of the inhabitants were ignorant of what had passed, and the warehouses were opened as usual. The following. days news was successively brought of the rising of the qua) tcrs of Actil, Lintt►e, Port Margot, Marmelade, Plai saner, and Dondon. Christophe, at the head of a detachment of infantry, and some dragoons, rushed forward to all the places where the insurgents had risen, alarmed the mutineers, a►nd made them - lay down their arms, while he ordered the chiefs to be shot. " In the beginning of IBM be was still commander of the Cape. Being compelled, after a vigorous resistance, to yield to the troops of General Leclerc, he set fire to the town be fore be left it, and went to rejoin Toussaint Louveritne, with three thoirsand men. Soon after this ha negoci ated with the ' French, gave them apparent prods of sub th;ssion, and succeeded in - disarming the insurrectionary dis tricts. Hut perceiving the army of Leclerc weakened, he again went over to the blacks, after the carrying off of Tous saint, lragned himself with Dessalines, powerfolly contribut ed to his successes, and oblii, , ed the French to evacuate the colony. Dessalines remaining now the tranquiipossessorof St. Domingo, took the title of Emperor of Hayti, under the name of.larnes I.; and Christophe, hose services had been so useful to hint, became one of his Generals, arid one of the first Men o f his Court. But this new Empire, established by force and violence, .over an ignorant and barbarous people, was to ex perience no less vicissitudes than governments established among nations more enlightened . by philosophers. "As it has happened all ages and in all countries, the Lieutenants of tike black Emperor, soon became jealous of his power ; and ttiose who had contributed the most to establish him, Christophe and Paion, were not long before they de clared themselves - his enemies; they exclaimed against 'des potism and tyranny, excited the negroes to rebellion against Dessali, under a pretence of a tax that the latter had es tablished on the expOrtation of sugar arid cotton ; led him into a snare laid for him, and murdered him in the midst of his troops, on the t7th October 1806. _ _ _ . " Christophe was immediately proclaimed President and GeneralissiMo of Mei State! of .Hayti, and, Petion was his Lieutenant and Governor in the south. A national assembly was convoked at Cape Francois to form a Constitution. This was the period of the first divisions between two men who, until then, bad appeared to have the same aim in view. Petion put himself at the head of a party who wished for a Senate and a Representative Syitetn of Government. Chris tophe wished that no authority should counterbalance with his own ; and seeing- himself at the head of a more numerous party, be declared, in a• Proclamation which he issued as Sovereign against the rebel Petion, that authority belongs to the strongest. In order to •prove the truth of so incontesta ble an axiom, the President - Chriitoplie asgenibled all his troops, made active prepaiations against his rival, who on his part bad assembled considexable forces, and had taken his station at 'Port-an-Prince. Petion being attacked several times very severely, be was at last beaten in several rencotin teis, lint was never entirely defeated; and it:happened that at'the moment when be was outlawed, and m 7 m when' the report of his death was spread throngnouvtheTsiand, that he rr-appeate.d,.. with. new- strength. Christ9phci:neeer reigned 'over the whole island of " ebristophe at last assumed the title of King, and was• crowned in the month of April tall. A capuchin friar, cam- ed Cornelius Briell, crowned him in the chrlith of the Cape, and 'Consecrated him. with some oil of the cocoa tree. '1 he new Sovereign framed his court on the same footing as that of Buonaptute. In imitation of the Corsican hero, the black King thanked his 123 nit, and took that of Henry 1.; attribut ing to himself likewise the power of creating titles, he esta blished a number of Negro Dukes, Counts and Barons, and distributed among them the principal plantations of the Co lony, which he erected. into Fiefs or Lordships.---Thus there was a Count of Limonade, tx Duke of M,irmelatle, a Prince of Sale Frone, Barons of Jeremy and Seringo, Knights of Coco, of Jaco, &c. &c. all these were decked out with ribands of the Legion of Henry, a pitiful and paltry caricature of the Legion of Honour, and which even now serves as a laughing subject to naval officers and English merchants, who frequent the coasts of this island. In short, this martial black King had even an almoner ; but he in vain requested of the Pope to make an Archbishop of this man, who was no other than the capuchin friar Cornelius Buell; the latter was the only white person at the Court of Hayti, and the only one of the Lords of the Court who knew how to read or write. His Title is that of the Duke de l'Anse. " The dominion of the King of Hayti extended over the whole Of the northern part of the island, and, in the interior, as far as the mountains of s;iboo and the plains of St. Yago. Pet ion, who declared himself independent, commanded under the title of President, all the Southern part. • " Christophe seemed not to be wanting in shill in the art of governing, generously recompensing his partizans, he dis played great firmness against the enemies of his power and spoke wonderfully well of liberal ideas; he succeeded latterly also in forming commercial relations with several European) ordinals; be could not read, and wrote just enough so as to he able to sign his own name. " After tine fall of Buonaparte, the Treaty of Paris having restfirtd to France its former ultramarine possessions, one of thefirsteares of his Majesty Louis XVIII. was to endeavour to recover them. This Prime immediately sent agents, whose mission was to sound tine disposition of the inhabitants, and to ascertain whether there were not means to enter into ar rangements with their chiefs, According to tlasr report, Petion expressed a willingness to acknowledge the aut trinity of the mother country. Christophe at* first expressed great joy, on hearing of the fall of Buoniaparte, and loudly pro claimed the desire which Inc formed of entertaining amicable relations with France, now restored to her lawful Kings.— He declared consequently that he would respect the white flag, and that his ports should he opened to ;French vessels; but be eat,: essed at tine Caine time a - firm resolution never to renounce the Sovereignty of a country which the people bad Conquered over Buonaparte's armies. Hearing afterwards that France was preparing an expedition to reduce him to submission, he made every preparation for an obstinate and formidable resistance ; and, in a kind of manifesto, he ats swered that his troops would make no prisoners. " At the first 'account received of the disembarkation of the French envoys, he took the most severe measures to se cure their persoos, and oriessi them having fallen into hii !mods, he issued a Proclamation to the Blacks, in which be congratulates the Haytions on the discovery, as he calls it, of the most atrocious and criminal intentions of the Cabinet of France; informs them that one of the French agents had fallen info his power, at the moment that he was fulfilling his abominable mission; awl that in order to investigate - the Matter inure fully, the Freud, traitor-should be publicly ex posed, that every person might - interrogate him as be should thick proper, with respect to the documents seized - 11pm' his person. He finishes by exhorting the Haytians to unanimity m tine cause against their enemies. " Let us exterminate our enemies, he says,the whole universe ere spectators of our conduct; never was a cause more just than ours: place con fidenee ist your King, and prepare yourselves to follow him is victory. We will consolidate our rights, our liberty, and our independence, on the carcasses and ruin of our enemies." " his conduct destroyed all hopes in the Cabinet of the Thuilleries, hf succeeding by trans of conciliation ; and the return of Buonaparte in la t 5, did not allow to have recourse to anus, Thus it is probable that it will be long before the French will be masters of this colony, formerly so rich and so productivelo the mothercouotry. - • " Cbristophe neglected rio means to strengthen his power, and he sent agents to several parts of Europe and the Ame rican Continent, in order to procure men capable of directing Iris admioistrat ions, which was certainly regularly mannged. His revenues arose from - direct and indirect taxes, laid on rattier largely; and the population of - his kingdoth rote to three hundred and, twenty thousand - inhabitants, forty thou sand of sebum were always armed He had a mime' ous Conn, and six 'Palaces richly fortiished - . -In England he bad nutherous 'enthusiastic admirers. The African and Asiatic Society created him their hero, and in July Is Hi, Mr. Wilber force, President of this Society, at a Philauthropic dinner, where the greater part of them were blacks collected from the harbours, gave the following toast : " Christhphe, the honour of the human specieso he most liberal, the mostenlightenedond the most beneficent of risen ; a sincere and pious Christians, one of the most august Sovereigns of the universe, raised to tine throne by the love and gratitude of those whose happiness be makes." - The toast was drank standing, with enthusiasm, whilst the health of the King of England was given, all the guests were seated. " At a dinner given at Cape Henry, to the foreign mer chants by the Duke of Marmelade, Governor of the Capital, on the occasion of the festival of the Queen of Hayti, after having drank to the health of George 111. and the Prince fie gent, tine following toast was given :—" To the friend of the human race, the inimortal Wilberforce, who undertook and defended the most sublime cause that ever existedl" About tine same time. Christopbe being informed that a great num ber of learned and military men of all ranks were quitting France for their opinions, lost rio time in addressing art ap peal to them, and offered them an asylum in his States. It is not exactly-known how many and who those persons were who accepted of this invitation. The royal aim:snack of the kingdom of Hayti contains a long list orChamberiams, Mar shals, &c.; and the army of King Christoplie is there stated to amount to twenty-four . regiments of infantry, two of ca valry, and two of artillery." CURIOUS OCCUR fIE7iCE.—A tradesman of this town having lately placed some oysters in a cupboard, was surprised at finding in the morning, a mouse caught by the tail, by the sudden collapsing of the shell. This incident, though curious, is rot liew.--The oyster has the power of closing the two parts of its shell, with considerable force, by means of a strung muscle at the hinge. This circumstance in Natural History may be illustrated by a singular incident, whichhappened about 40 years since at Ashburton, at the 'rouse of Mrs. Aldridge, known by the name of the New Inn. In an undergrutiod cellar a dish of Wembury oysters was lard, by way of coolness; at the time the tide flows, the oysters, it is well known, op:sn their shells to adroit the water and take their food. At this period, a 'large oyster had expanded its shell, and at the instant, two mice, searching for prey, pounced at once upon the victim, and seized it with their teeth; the Oyster, shrinking at the wound, collapsed with such force as to crush the marauders to death. The ' , oyster, 'with two mice dangling from' its shell, was for a loog time exhibited as a curiosity. Carew, in his " History of Cornwall," tells of an oyster that closed its shell . on mice. An apposite instance is also epigrammatically -re corded in the Greek . AntholOgy.—(Plyniouth Telegraph, Dec, 30.) . J. Norton, of Stokesby, Norfolk, having strong reason to expect his barn would be visited by sonic nightly depredators, from private information he had re ceived, stationed Frostlike, the Filby Constable-, arid three Whet persons, in an outhouse to guard the premises. After watching for several nights, the long-expected visitors made their appearance about one o'clock on Friday morning last; they were provided with pick-lock keys, with which they opened the barn doors. and Were three in n un On enter ing they began to look about them, being prepared with a dark lalithorn, and they 304111 set :themselves to work about filling the sacks they had brought-with them with corn. They were, however, much surprised by the sodden appearance of the four persons employed to guard the premises, to whom they did not surrender withimit making .a desperate resistance. One of the villains seized a pitchfork, with which he made a thrust at one of the party, who instantly tired his pistol at him, which compelled him to desist, after being severe ly wounded. In the confusion which naturally ensued, one of the robbers made his escape, and two were secured.. They proved to be Joseph Thaxter and Joseph Warnes, both married men with families, residing at Burgh. They were taken to Rollesby the following day, where they underwent a strict examination before the Ilev. T. [later, who fully com mitted them to Norwich Castle, to take their trials fur the offence.
