COAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS [NEW TIMES.] The foreign news received yesterday was of the same com plexion with that which we have been accustomed to for some time past—affording .complete and satisfactory proof that the Revolutions with which the Continent has lately been agitated ware in no instance the work of the people, bubmterely the act of a few worthless and profligate intriguers, who now are quarrelling with each other, throwing out mutual charges of treachery, or else running away like cowards frOm the dan ger they have brought upon _others. It is stated that no less than six million's of "francs were sent from Paris, in February, to corrupt the troops in Piedmont. This money was supplied by certain Bankers, the same who were so active in propagat ing false and exaggerated accounts of the strength and successes of the Neapolitan and Piedipontese rebels. At Turin, two of the rebellious regiments have been firing on each other. The Prince of Cisterns, the traitor, who first came from-Paris to stir up the revolt in Piedmont, has run away, and was seen travel ling in France. The Austrian troops were concentrated on the Test i°, and were expected to pass that river between the 10th and lkith Of ApriL [THE TimEs.] The public will recollect, that at the time the Committee of Lords was formed to take into consideratiOn the state of foreign trade, great distress was felt in,this branch of our commercial pursuits, and great anxiety expressed for the result . of the inves tigation. The anxiety has subsided from the hopelessness of relief, and thodistress, we fear, has continued unabated. How ever, we are not without some expectation of a beneficial result. If the labours of the Committee tend only to establish'and iaro mulgate right principles, much will be effected, though those principles are not immediately acted upon. They will consti tute a rule to which we may look, and from which we may measure our deviation. The celebrated report of the Bullion Committee has been of more use recently than at the time of its first publication. [MORNING POST.] In the Turkish provinces hostilities appear to have actually conimenced. The proclamation of Ypsilanti (for which he in curred the displeasure of the Emperor of Russia) appears to have been followed by the massacre of a great number of Turks. The revolution extends over the whole of Moldavia; Wallachia, and Bulgaria, and in Servia several corps have been raised, destined to act against the Turks. Private letters state, that on the 21st a smart battle was fought near Galata, in Moldavia, between the Greeks and the Turks, in which the latter were completely defeated. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The COURIER, who at first affected to `treat the idea of a general Greek Insurrection with sneering levity, begins now to discover his error, and if he does not acknowledge it, he at least maintains a discreet silence. But another Ministerial Paper, with a sagacity which can never be sufficiently admired, tells us, that " the present state of Europe (Ries not allow of the • Emperor Alexander's embarking in new schemes of conquest. Really! 'Why, when was the 'state of Enrope so favourable for his embarking in new schemes of conquest ? The Revolutionary matter which paralyses the cultivated .States of Europe does not affect him, and puts it out of the • power of any of these States to oppose hint in his designs. The --Power which is most materially interested: in preventing his aggrandizement on the side of Turkey, and which alone posses ses the,means of doing so with effect, namely Austria, will find more than a sufficiency of employment for a long time lo come, in keeping down the Italians.—thie thing ,can hardly•filil to have-some weight in forming an opinion respecting the connec tion of RUssia with this insurrection. The population of Russia haVe long identified themselves with the population of Turkey pro‘ fussing the Greek religion. The Russiansareextrernely ambitious and fanatically attached to their religion, and from that cause alone they must be disposed to render every assistance to the Greeks which they possibly can. The most absolute Sovereign cannot 'disregard the passions and-prejudices of a whole people. Even - supposing, therefore, the Emperor Alexander to have changed his character, and to have now lost all relish for despoiling his = weaker neighbours; we doubt whether it is in.his-power to pre vent the Greeks from receiving most material aid.from Russia. [BRITISH PRESS.I' - The King of Naples we are gl4d to.hear„ is said to:have-re newed his.promise to his people of granting them a represepta tive form of government, and aecordingly the Parliament wily shortly be convened.

Mr LO;t.D.L-Esteetri - for your Lordship's is vate virtues and love for my country will' uQt permit me to-be silent, bile f seeyour"Lordshih as a statesman, labouring under your present d lusive system, as relates to your foreign policy,.,, prejudicial as it is to the nation's best ititeresti • 4 and I feel constrained to offer my' feeble aid -,toa dispel that delusion. I therefore most. respeq ftilly take leave to observe, 'that yoUr errors ap 'pea'r to proceed from not 'having practised (he unprotecting system which your Lordship advo- Cates ; and from not censiderinz that,' comparing the world to 4 circle, we form only ,a segment of it in common with- other nations, and that we are pressed beyond our due position in that circle by our national debt and. expenditure. If the world were under a single government, and all the peo ple in it equally burthened, then your Lord Ship's system would be a perfect one, since what would be taken from' the people in tares, WOuld'be restored to them through an increase in the 'de mand for their industry, and in the price . of their labour, just as the water evapo ra t e d by the suer s rays from 'the ocean is dispersed ,in fertilizing showers over the earth, and then returns to .the place whence it came. In the existing state,of things it is incumbent on us to form a Sort•of world within ourselves, and this cannot be effected without affording protection to every species of property in the British Empire against foreign competition equal to its value to the State. also appears to me that, in your systcm,of economy, your Lordship does not make the profitable employment of our people the ground work of our national-prosperity j . nor does yOur Lordship seem to be aware that inproportion as we consume foreign articl e s, th e lik e of which we can produce ourselves at home, 'or in our Colo nies„ we diminish that profitable employment' as well as our aggregate con3um,'ption,.and Co6e quently lessen our means of producing revenue, as well as impair our national wealth and poli tical power. It is no solace to find that under this system a few merchants are Making rapid fortunes, 'for this is done at the ex pence of their country's Vital resources. 1 apprehend also that your Lordship is not aware that indired revenue „paid through the profitable e:nploymelit of our people, is not only greater - in amount, but is also , sooner paid than the direct revenue l e vi e d ; reign Commerce is. Nine- tenths of every article of British produce and workmanship - in - the Eta pire is compounded of labour and revenue, con sequently that article which, from its component 'proportions of British labour and revenue be comes most valuable, yields the greatest measure of ' wealth and revenue to the nation. Now, if the profitable employment of our people were made the test or criterion for ascertaining the nation's 'prosperity, and if our Legislators were sound Statesmen, endowed with a practical knowledge - of the various' kinds of our pros perity, the tia)e and expence of Parliamen tary committees for ascertaining the stlite of propftSr would be saved to the nation, if our properly were but ,protected'accord- ing to its value to the State. For instance, to enable any LegislatOr,to ascertain the actuLl condition 'of the people, End of the property of the empire, he would then only need to knOw the state of the landed interest, when, if he found corn selling at a price below_the cost of its production on an average of years, he would immediately 'declare that the, landed incerest way living on its capital and not on its rents, and would .add, that its labourers were 'turned out of employment for want of remunerating. prices for agricultural produce . ; . that this destitUtion of employme. - tt stkferedby those people would like wise deprive of Profitallie employment-The manu facturer, the merchant, the shopkeeper, 'the Slip-owner, and the sailor, who would conse quently cease in their, turn to be, profitable cus k.nners to ;he agriculturist, - and then 'an these once productive - classes would bcconje 'Chargeable ' on the landed interest through the p"Oori'-rates. This . is our case at present, anti the evil arises entirely from • Want of legislative "protection to every kind of British property equal to 'its value. to, the State. 'Again, the Legislator in : questiott wou:d need no Committee to ascertain the state of our shipping interest, for on beitig informed of the, price . .of freights, he would,be •ebabled to perceive, the state of • the shipping interest much better, than those theorists who deduce their data from the conflicting evidence taken befoie a Par liamentary Committee. ' To Legislators possess ing a thorough practical kriowledge of things,,,the sane .afivantage would accrue in - investigating every.. other kind of property in the British Empire. 1 beg .permisSion further to state to your Lord ship, that, own; to the want of protection to every . kind_of British property, equal - to its A,ll:ue to• the State, .the . proprioors and‘ promoters of British,indtistry . in general arc redneed to fhb , ) , 3 necessity of sUbsisting on 'their capitA ;'. that .the ',.. , -.. .• . profitable employment ot our veople ird-ally di- . .. _ _ ..... rninishijag ;. that- the .revenueand pr - bsperity of Our.
