THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS, May 22. [THE TIMES.] The news from - Spain, we regret to say, ac quires an alarming interest‘ Those who are of an age to recollect the commencement of the French Revolution will think that they are car ried back and reading some of the occurrences of that lamentable period. We believe the Spa niards to be too moral and religious a people to rush into all the excesses of which the French were guilty, and under which they suffered ; but we confess we anticipate no early settlement of the affairs of the Peninsula ; and we fear that the intervening period between the present moment and their final arrangement, of whatever nature that may be, will he stained by many crimes, and inflict much suffering. In one respect the Spaniards are inferior to the French. The former have Ferdinand VII. for their King. It is not neces sary to say much more in the way of comparison between that Sovereign and Louis XVI. ; nei ther should we have said so much, if what we write were likely to act as a stimulant to a peo ple now too much intent upon their own actions to listen to foreign opinions respecting them.— Yet do we believe that the present King of Spain returned from his imprisonment with the love of his subjects—that is, his subjects entertained a love for some theoretic and imaginary personage, which they were u illing to suprose might be their -King. How far he has given a body to the creations of popular fancy, or realized the fic tions of loyal feeling, it is unnecessary to say. Oh that Kings should not know how to judge rightly between the love of their subjects and the s.ycophaney of their courtiers ! that they should not see that they can buy the homage of slaves at any time for - mouey ; but that they can only pur chase public esteem by gentleness, goodness, humanity, virtue ; that the servile - wretches by whom they are too generally surrounded, who flatter all their foibles, eulogize their very vices, and tell them that they are adored by those whose love they have done nothing to gain, can not, no nor will not, stand for one moment be tween them and the general indignation, when this is once fully roused. A King is not loved because he is King. Let him not flatter himself with that foolery : but let - him consider, being -Kieg - , what he has done in that eminent station to merit the affection of his subjects ;—what sa crifice of himself, oe his own personal feelings or advantages he has made to their wishes or dis tresses ;—what remission of taxes, what conces sion of liberty, (the common right of all) have taken, place under his reign ; and the answers which his own heart will render to inquiries such as these, will inform him much better than the assurances of the creatures who usually haunt his palace, in what degree of estimation he stands with the people whom he governs. [NEW TIMES.] There was a sudden and extraordinary rise of the Funds yesterday. Consols at one time of the day were done for the account as high as 76, and they left off at 754, which is 11 higher than the closing price of Saturday. No political news transpired, of sufficient consequence to produce so marked an impression on the Money market ; but it is probable that the speculators operated o i a well-founded persuasion of the favourable state of the Finances. A rumour (we are in clined to believe, an exaggerated one) prevailed, Of Buonaparte's health. Letters were said to have been received from the Naval Commander at Deal, notifying the arrival of some ships of war which had touched at St. Helena, and slating, that according to the account of the Officers, the Corsican was reduced to nearly the last stage of disease. It is possible, that some persons, regarding 'Buonaparte's life, as a, continued support to the hopes of the re volutionary faction, may have -looked on the above news as favourable to Public Credit, hich rests so mainly on public tranquillity, and hence the rumour in question may have had some influence in raising the Stocks. For our own part, however, we are inclined . to think that foreign news of any sort has, for some time past, ceased to excite any great interest in this country ; and we are therefore inclined to attribute the rise of yesterday almost exclusively to the cause above mentioned. [MORNING POST.] The Coronation (which is now intended to take place about the middle of July) became a sub ject of conversation last night in the House of COTIIMOTIS ; in the course of Which the Marquis of Londonderry intimated that Ministers were not prepared . to advise his Majesty to . exercise his clear, undoubted, undisputed right, of with holding or bestowing the honours of a Coronation On the Queen, in the Way that her supporters could desire. His Lordship added, that if there Were any who would wish on this occasion to re- Vive_ the dying, or rather the dead embers of those fires which had so fatally prevailed, on their heads the consequences must rest.Mr.Brougham declined immediately entering into the question ; and we should expect that duty to his Royal Mistress will make him careful not to agitate so very un pleasant a subject. The honours of a Corona tion have hitherto been viewed as a mark of Grace to. the Queen Consort: Her Majesty (God bless her) may be all virtue, purity, and deli cacy ; but even the most enthusiastic admirers of her pure and spotless character can hardly main tain that the King is bound to confer on her any special mark of his Royal grace and favour, after the course which she has thought it became her as a modest and dutiful wife to pursue. [BRITISH PRESS.] It may be now considered certain that the King will visit Ireland in the course of the summer. The time will be shortly after the Coronation, which is fixed for the 12th July. His Majesty will proceed to Dublin, and his excursions will be confined to the vicinity of that city, as his Majesty will not sleep out of the Castle during his stay. His daily rides will, therefore, pro bably not exceed twenty or thirty miles from Dublin. lie will be accompanied by seveial 1 Of his Ministers. ' After this visit, which may occupy about a fortnight, his Majesty is ex pected to confer a like honour upon Hanover. llis Majesty, we are concerned to say, is now confined by an attack of the gout. It is, how ever, very slight, as his Majesty has signified his intention of honouring the Duke of Devon shire with his company at dinner on Friday next, at Devonshire House. Their Royal Highnesses the Princesses Augusta and Sophia, and the Duchess of Gloucester, visited his Majesty yes terday at twelve o'clock. [:MORNING CHRONICLE.] The rumour which is afloat respecting the in tention to exclude the Queen from the approach ing Coronation, was last night made the founda tion of a question in the House of Commons by Mr. Monck. That Gentleman, after alluding to the vote of 100,0001. last year towards the ex pence of the Coronation, asked whether any pro-- vision was made by Ministers for the appearance of her Majesty at that ceremony, and if so, whe ther any additional expence would be necessary for the arrangements to be made on that ac count ? He said he could not believe in the rumour, that whilst seats were provided for ,Peeresses at the Coronation, there was no place'l appointed for the Queen—a rumour which he considered scandalous towards the Government.l The Chancellor of the Exchequer endeavoured to evade a direct answer to this question, but when he began to be rather hard , pushed, Lord Londonderry came forward with a pointed declaration, that he and the other advisers of the Queen were not prepared to advise the King to take the steps which were necessary before her Majesty eould take part in the ceremonial; and he concluded with a threat, that if any Members were prepared to revive the painful controversy in which the country was lately involved, they must take on themselves the responsibility of their discretion, or he should rather say, indiscretion. What ! his Lordship, we suppose, now thinks the conjuncture more favourable than ever for attack on the Queen, and almost sighs for some pretext to renew the warfare under better auspices ! The most admirable part of all this is the cool assump tion ; Ist, That one attempt to injure the Queen entitles Ministers, as a matter of course, to make another attempt ;-2dly, That the authors of the fresh attack are not the revivers of the contro versy, but those who endeavour to ward it off; without saying any thing of the admirable equity of making the Queen responsible for whatever any Member of Parliament, in the exercise of what he conceives his duty, may say or do with respect to the conduct adopted towards her. On all this we have no comments to offer. It is impos sible, however, to avoid remarking the tone of elation now assumed on this subject by the Mar quess of Londonderry. Friday and Saturday about twenty sail of out ward bound merchantmen, which put into Ports mouth with contrary winds, proceeded on their respective voyages. The ship Tuscan, bound to the South Seas, was among them, having on board the Rev. DANIEL TYERMAN (late of Newport, Isle of Wight), GEORGE BENNET, Esq. of Shef field, and missionaries, who are about to visit Otaheite, &c. as a Deputation from the London Missionary Society. Extract of a letter receivel from Santiago de Chili, dated the 10th January last :—" We have just received despatches from Lima, announcing the pleasant advice, that since the defection of the regiment of Numantia, 800 strong, with all the officers, 27 officers belonging to different other regiments have also gone over to San Mar tin. He was within a few leagues of the city, and hourly expecting its surrender. Armales is also said to have arrived at Cruzes. Lord Coch rane has (since the fri g ate) taken six of ves sels, four of which are from Spain. One is prin cipally laden with quicksilver, and very valu able ; another is the Indian, from Rio Janeiro, with an assorted cargo. Captain Basil Hall, of the Conway, is sending an express to Buenos Ayres, with the above intelligence." A letter, dated Gibraltar, the 26th ult., says— " Several arrests have taken place this day at Algesiras : among them is the Vicar of the town, Town Major, and Brigade Major, suspected of counter revolutionary principles, which they are endeavouring to disseminate." We learn from Dinant, that a wall, 80 feet high, being part of the new citadel, for the de fence of that town, has fallen down, with four casemates. Two workmen were killed by this accident.—(Dutch Paper.) _ A botanical curiosity has been exhibited at I.:lves—it is a polyanthus, with more than sixty flowers on the same stem, but perfectly separate from each other, which had been gather ed at Asharn. A most singular circumstance has occurred at Ilailsham, whiCh offers a problem worthy the investigation of the curious. A ball of hair, of a hard subst ,,, ce, and of a glossy black co lour, has been taken from the stomach of a bullock belonging to Mr. Kennett, of that place. A basking shark, which measured nine feet in length, was taken, a few days ago, in Bracklesham Bay, south of Chiches ter, by some fishermen, who with difficulty brought it on shore, entangled in their nets. On opening it four young ones were taken from it, which weighed about seven pounds each. SINGULAR CONSANGUINITY.— Two Gentle men of the County of Bucks, lately deceased, each married the other's daughter, and left issue on both sides. ROBIIERY.-Yesterday morning, between three and four o'clock, the dwelling-house of ColoneLEglinton, in the City-road, was entered by means of false keys, and plun dered of plate, linen, &c. to the amount of £5O, with which the thieves got clear off. DROWNING.—A boat, in which were six per sons, four of whom were females, was sunk, on Sunday even ing, below by the unskilful act of the two youths, who run her against some piles. One of the females, of the . name of Spenser, was unfortunately drowned, but the others were saved by a Westminster party in a six-oared boat. The deceased was a servant, who had liberty for the day, and resided ,at Brentford. A SWINDLER.—On Saturday last, a person genteely dressed in black, went into the shop of, Mr. JaAson, in Henrietta-street, Covent-garden, Glass-manufacturer, and ordered a pair of glass decanters which stood in the window to be sent to a lady whom he named, residing at the Stamp-office, • Somerset-house. A person in the employ of Mr. Jackson was sent with the articles, and was met by the same person who had ordered them, at the entrance of Somerset-house; he re quested the man to accompany him, and he would chew him to the lady whom the decanters were for, and when they came to the door of the Stamp-office, he took the decanters from the man, saying, he would, take them into the Lady, and return with the money in a few minutes. The man waited at the door a considerable time, and then began to suspect all was not right. On inquiring in the office, no such person was to be found there; the man with the decanters had gone up the first flight of stairs, and made his escape at the door on.the ground floor. FOR THE SUN. Ma. EDITOR.—After hearing the debates in a certain great House on the question of giving po litical power to Roman Catholics in this Protes tant country, I returned home at three in the morning, and being exhausted by the attention I had given to all the speakers, I threw myself on a sofa and fell fast asleep. And as I slept I dreamed, and behold a castle having four turrets stood before me—near to this building was a crowd of people holding a consultation, eppa rently on some important subject. I inquired of a person who was passing, the name of the place, and the cause of the assembly. He informed me that I was on Tower Hill, and. that the crowd was composed of the neighbouring inhabitants, who were then considering the merits of a Petition which bad been presented to them from the wild beasts who inhabited the Tower, praying eman cipation from confinement, and also an equal par ticipation in all rights and privileges possessed by every tame and harmless animal in the metropolis =also admission to. the Select Vestry of the parish, and a share in all offices, emoluments, and advantages at present enjoyed by the resi dent inhabitants and householders. I thought I was in time to hear the petition read, and it set forth, among other things, " that the brutes were, pro- CC perly speaking, Lords of the creation, being "created previously to man. That they were " also the original inhabitants and possessors of " the British Isles,which were infested by wolves, 4 ' and other wild animals, before they were dis " covered by man. That although they did not " deny the truth of certain histories respecting " the cruelties, murders, and enormities of 'many 44 of their progenitors, nor even that they had 14 been sworn enemies both to the human race 44 and to all tame animals, yet that ever since " they had become their fellow parishioners in " the Tower they had lived harmlessly and peace " ably, molesting no one, and neither biting, 44 tearing, or devourins , any thing but their daily " food. That so far7from being injurious they 44 had contributed very greatly to the emolument " and security of the Tower; and that in evi " deuce of this their good conduct they could 44 bring forward the testimony of their keeper, ",and also that of many monkies, pelicans and 44 other respectable and defenceless animals, " who had lived for years , in the Tower with " them in undisturbed security. For these, and " other reasons, they prayed emancipation from " their present state of oppression and unjust cc confinement."—Perceiving the favourable man ner in which the petition was listened to, and fearing, as the crowd was rapidly increasing, that might not be able to escape before, the wild beasts should be liberated, I was happy to learn that counter-meetings had been held in Lamb's Conduit and Cateaton Streets, Nag's Read Court, Houndstlitch; and Cow Cross, at which petitions had been voted and forwarded from the various tame animals in the metropolis against the emancipation of their wild fellow sub jects in the Tower. One of these Petitions stated, «that as the wild beasts acknowledged " the Lion as their rightful Sovereign, whereever " he may haptsan to be resident, and were per " petually swearing obedience to. his will and 44 commands, they could not be relied on as trust " worthy subjects of King George IV. who was 44 nothing but a man." A grave old gentleman entreated honourable members *coolly to weigh this fair objection—he was, however, silenced by a shrewd and powerful orator, who reminded' the assembly that the Lions, having for the last 200 years been regularly washed every Ist of April, had been purged by degrees of all their natural ferocity, and would certainly require nothing of their subjects inimical to the peace of the nation at large, or to the authority of their well beloved human brother on the Throne.—(A loud shout of hear, hear !)—Having confirmed the solidity of this argument, no one had courage to answer it. Another petition reminded the meeting that the wild beasts were in the constant habit of maintaining that no faith was to be kept either with men or tame animals ; and that they were in the habit of taking an oath that, should it be con sidered for the good of the wild fraternity, they might tear, and slaughter other animals as a matter of conscience. Another grave man now entreated the assembly to allow this fact to pos sess its just and proper weight with them ; so that if they would not listen to argu ment they would at least regard a proof of this nature. A flourishing fellow, however, quashed all this by stating that what the wild beasts promised on their honour to the tame animals, or to man, was of much more importance than all the oaths they took to their Creator. — After the counter-petitions had all been read, I thought the debate continued as follows :—" Mr. 4 ' Chairman, all beasts have equal rights—they " have been oredient-subjects, and peaceable-in-. " habitants."—" What do you mean ? (said ago " ther,) why one got loose and killed the 44 keeper's wife in the Tower, and a relation of his 44 at Exeter 'Change broke out and eat two mon ; CC tries."—" Another wild beast got out near " Salisbury, attacked the Exeter Mail Coach, " tore one of the horses, and killed a dog ; and " wherever they have got loose they have always " done the same—and as for the Tower, if they ".have lived harmlessly there it has been for this " plain reason, that they have not had the power 44 of doing mischief, which very power you now " wish to allow them."—" But (said another), 44 they may be let out safely now, for they are 44 ready to give security; they will give bonds, 44 and, sign and seal any thing you please."— " Hang it (said another), but they can claw it to 44 pieces as soon as they have signed it."—" Sir, 44 (said one) a gentleman has most unjustly re " proached wild beasts as bloody and ferocious in " their dispositions; I can disprove such assertions " altogether, and put beyond doubt the fact, that CC all wild beasts have at all times been generous, " grateful, and honourable ; in proof of this uni cc versal characteristic in wild beasts, I will appeal " to the story of Androcles in history, and to the " fable of the bear, who so carefully whisked 44 the flies from his master's face while he was CC asleep."—" I'll tell you what," said another, cc you had better let them all out directly, for " they have grown so much stronger latterly 44 than formerly, that, if you do not, they will ' force their way out before long without leave." ' •--No one present seemed to think this argument worth answering, since all remembered our suc cessful opposition to the French Revolution, and the glorious end of the battle of Waterloo. 46 I am for letting them out," said another', " be " cause I am sure that we enjoy so much light, knowledge, and freedom now, compared with SC what we did when England was covered with " wolves, that people will not suffer themselves " to be torn to pieces as they used to be for " merly." Another advocate for the claims, who had been conversant With many foreign me nageries in the• course of his life, appeared to think that so far from there being any real grounds for alarm, the wild beasts, when re leased, would, from the natural principles of gratitude and self-interest, be found among the most orthodox, pacific, and loyal of all his Ma jesty's subjects, and even afford considerable as sistance in keeping in order certain refractory animals, who, under the present system, were often showing their teeth, and giving him consi derable trouble ; and as this advocate was known to be much in the secrets of government, his no tion seemed to take surprisingly with all except with those who seemed to fear that, when the wild beasts should once feel their own strength, they would set up for themselves, and only con cede to this modern champion of their claims the privilege of being devoured last. Another ad vocate said, that" times were completely al " tered, and that therefore wild beasts and every " thing else must be altered too."—" Yes," said one,' but what has made the alteration? Has it " not been the putting down the power of these " ferocious animals ? If you are sensible of the " blessings of light, freedom, security, acid CC peace, then keep them while you have them ; " and if so, you will continue those under con " troul who have never allowed these blessings " to other animals than those of their own fra= , " ternity." lle also added, " Suppose you let " them out, and they should begin their old " tricks of tearing and devouring, bow are you "to get them in again ?" Ile was, however, silenced by cries of " Order, order !" and a re primand from the Chairman, that his expression " old tricks" w as unparliamentary, and that any reference W future evil could only be specula tive. The facts which had been brought forward were however deemed likely to have some effect on the minds of impartial hearers, and it was therefore considered advisable to divert them from close consideration ; and, in order to effect this, I thought a lively little old man stepped forward as a volunteer with a violin under his arm, and said, " Mr. Chairman, I will sing you " a song on this subject ;" on which he began, and I thought I never heard a more musical voice than that of the old man. He skipped round and round like a bird on his perch, and brought such melodious sounds out of his violin as made all the people cry out " hear, hear !" and clap their hands with extacy. The following, I thought, was his song : " Through this grand conciliation, " We shall be a happy nation, " Loving grows each savage baast, - " Grateful for our favours past. " Blessed day when all are free ; " Let them out, my friends, and see." ' - - Now, I suppose, it will be. allowed that there was more sound than sense in all this, yet it had such an effect on the hearers, that they seemed indisposed to hear any one else, and there was a general cry of " Question, question!" One man indeed ventured to say, " Mr. Chairman, on a " subject of this serious importance to us " and to our children, is it. be supposed ‘C that we shall allow ourselves to be lid " died out of our- old English understand " ing, and common sense ;" but perceiving that he was against the question, they soon coughed him down ; and only one more speaker Would they listen to ; this was a bald-headed man, who pleased them much by reminding them that there was once a lioness who used to suffer her keeper to go into, her den whenever he pleased, from which circumstance he asserted it was proved that. wild beasts were by nature friendly to mankind; and after dwelling most forcibly on this wondrous • piece of disinterested hospitality, be added "one " good turn deserves another." This Was enough— They were now ripe for emancipation ; • and strangers being ordered to withdraw, I was most happy to find it possible to obey the command, lest I should feel the fraternal hug of so many lions, tigers, bears, and leopards. Just as I. was passing Allhallows Barking, I thought some one had conveyed, the joyful result of the meeting to the TOWer, and the universal howl, growl, and.. scream of exultation which was emitted from the dens of the various animals terrified me so great- • ly that I awoke, and behold.it was a dream. I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, JOHN BUNYAN. ETON COLLEGE.-Several Noblemen and Gen tlemen who received their education at this Col lege, dined together on Saturday evening at Willis's Great Rooms, King-street, St. James's ; the Most Noble the Marquis of DowNsninE in the Chair. After the cloth was removed, Non Nobis Domine was sung in fine style, and the usual toasts were drank. On the health of the Noble Chairman being drank, he addressed the company in an eloquent and animated speech, which was much applauded. ,The meeting did not separate till a late hour. The Society for the cure of Diseases in the Eye, held their Anniversary Dinner, at the Thatched House Tavern, St. James's, on Friday last. His Royal Highness the Duke of YORK was hi the Chair, supported oil his right by the Earl Blesinton, and Lord Saltoun ; and on his left by Lord Lynedoch,Mr. Byng, and Sir Colin Campbell. There were upwards of - ninety per sons of distinction present, including many medi 7 cal and chirurgical professors of the first eminence. There is in some hop-grounds, at Rotherfield, in the eastern part of Sussex, a hop-pole, which has been used for no less a time than 35 years ! On Friday last, a melancholy accident occur red at Mr. CLEAVER'S soap-manufactory. The man superintending the coppers, unfortunately fell into the boiling soap; he was carried to the Hospital without any hope of recovery ; and soon expired. LONDON MARKETS.
