THE LONDON JOURNALS. [O4kILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS. [THE TIMES.] Tile Spanish Journals, which we have received to the 22d ult., are more occupied in. describing the consequences of the public apprehension, now so prevalent throughout the Peninsula, than in' 'explaining its causes ; for, in. so far as the fears of the Spaniards for the safety of their Constitu tluta can be traced to any facts known to have tare: 'place within their own territory., it is cer tain that none such have yet transpired, of a na ture to justify the uneasiness which is generally felt,;or the measures which have in various great • and districts been resorted to. As for dateats beyond the Pyrenees—the disasters which t7ate . occurred at Naplesoo a cause assuming, to be that of freedom, cannot reasonably affect the character or hopes of any people but the wretched eapolitatis themselves ; least of all can such con tageacies impair the noble•confidence or reputa ton of the Spaniards . , who'have not served their aaantry with puerile boastinss, but with manly alfeds, and who pushed on to victory amidst dan g•tra and obstructions, appalling to all but their • own unconquered spirits. The march of a Rus sian army perhaps may have led the. Spaniards to anticipate- for it a nearer object than that to which it was avowedly destined - . If so, and if they have not already procured through any Spanish Minister a satisfactory assurance that this northern irruption was unconnected with the interests or politics of Spain, we would ,refer them to the proceedings of the British House of Commons on Friday last, when our Minister for Foreign Affairs threw his " twilight gray," upon the question of why and with what intention 100,CW Russians were moving towards the South of Europe. Lord Londonderry said," or seemed to say," with regard to the advance of the Russian troops towards Italy---4st., that they were called for by the united voices of - the I.!mperor of Austria and the Sardinian Monarch ; Ad s - that their movement had no reference what ever to Spain ; or, in other words, that they were . rot going to make war upon the Spaniards ; and idly, o:at the Piedmontese revolution. having been put down, the further march of the Russians would be, or had been, countermanded. For ohVioua reasons we do not pledge ,ourselves to this construction of the words •of the noble Secretary. Between the circumlocutory forms of - language permitted by Parliament • and those pescribed by office, the negative admonitions and affirmative interrogations, and the diverse anodes of smooth and slippery irony adopted by the Minister en this occasion, there is no guarantee for what we may arrive at after opening out his numberless involutions; or whether, if the papy rus should be ever so successfully unrolled, the hieroglyphics may at last be translatable. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The public are now looking forward with great anxiety to the p.nblicationuf the evidence taken by the Agricultural Committee. From the length of time'that Committee has sitten,'and the num ber of the witnesses examined, we may presume tEat the close of its labours is at hand. We were petty confident, at the time *was moved for, that the views of the AloVers would not be realized, and, from what has transpired ()Nile evidence, we are convinced that we were right in our conjec tures. The Agricultural Distress is the natural . result of the burdens which press upon the coun try; and it is not in the power of legislation to remedy it. It is in th e n a t ure o f thi ngs ,- t h at Takes should be burdensome, and impossible that Land can . permanently be exempted from ti - :ern, though the landholders of the country, rn:sled hy the" Pilot who weathered the storm" Himself, but left the country exposed to its buf ftings,• once seers to have seriously thought that they • could always throw the bur dens on the industry of 'the country, and remain exempt from - thetn themselves. They now feel their mistake Any relief they ,Could obtain Would only be at the expence of the country at large ; and we,do not think the Government dare venture on any - thing of the kind... The excessive issue of paper money in Austria, enabled the landholders of that empire to rob their creditors, by paying off their debts and incumbrances in a currency which, in value, ho:e no proportion to that in which they \were -contracted. The Government of this country dare not, however,, transfer in so barefaced a way the property of one class to another. The Bank Restriction Act went as far in the way of. robbing creditors, as a Govertmient like ours can well . g6;—but it has been o bli ge d t o repea l t h at A Ct, grid to give the creditorS,,,in -turn, an advantage over their debtors—an advantage from which the _Landholders are now 'severely smarting. • • [BRITISH PRESS.] - • • The events that are passing in the dorhinions • of Turkey are also fraught with important con - Sel uences to Europe, and deserve the most ear.. nest.attention of oar Government. Should the Greeks under Prince Ypsilanti succeed in • wrest lag from the grasp o f T ur k ey any portion of tho:le extensive dominions. that once formed the .(27reek empire, and so long groaned under the horrors of Mahomedan:tyranny, the neigh. . Louring .States will affect to believe that the new Power will be unable to maintain the rela tions of peace and commerce with Europe, and will, in their generous solicitude for the com mon welfare, undertake to share the territories between them. Austria and Russia are both pre '. pared with considerable armies on the frontiers of Turkey to take advantage*of every occurrence, and their almost proverbial ambition will feel but little scruple in . appropriating whateyer part of the . Turkish provinces may seem• to become dismembered from the main trunk. Should Eng land then interfere to prevent the further extension of these already overgrown empires, how shall she be enabled to give effect to her remonstrances ? Slie has looked' with indifference or with approba , tion upon the destruction of Italy ; ahe has not uttered a word to - prevent . the'sudden and violent extinction of the brilliant meteor that seemed for a gunlient_.tn shed a 'gleam of hope and liberty through the gloom and despondency of Italian' slavery ; she has suffered Austria to monopolise• that Fairest portion of Europe, and, with Russia, to hurl a►►athemas against all who dare to talk of freedom ; and how shall she' hope to collect around her the moral strength of public opinion, or gain credit for her professions of regard to the welfare of Europe, when she shall find herself at length reduced to the necessity of checking the ambitious career of Austria and Russia, and of saving the balance of power from being distuibed by the accession of any considerable portion of the Turkish dominions to the strength of these two empires, already too — formidable for the safety of the rest of Europe ? The foreign po licy of the British Cabinet ever since the capture of BuonaParte, has effectually robbed Great Bri tain of the proud distinction she once enjoyed among the people of the Continent •of being re ,garded as the champion and advocate of freedom. By this policy her statesmen have, no doubt, obtained the smiles and approbation of foreign _Princes, and have in delighted complacency ex changed "snuff-boxes with the Ministers of foreign despots ; but it should never be forgotten that it is from these very personages that pro bable danger is to be apprehended, and that we have 'increased the chances of incurring it by tl►e conduct we have pursued in endea vouring to render them independent of public opinion. They may loosen at their pleasure or caprice the link that binds us to their Cabinets, so soon as they shall find our friendship irksome or unprofitable, but for us to regain our place in the estimation of the world cannot be the work of a moment. Then shall we mourn over the fatal policy that severed our national interests from those of, mankind in general, and taught us to purchase the friendship of Monarchs by flat tering their passions, and .sacrificing the liberties of half of Europe to appease their fears or gratify their resentments. [NEW TIMES. We feel it our duty to notice the manner in which certain Journals, professing to act on Con stitutional principles, think fit to speak of the House of Commons. About a fortnight ago, The Morning Chronicle, adverting to the question of Parliamentary Reform, thus expressed itself : " That the House of Commons should set them selves against all reform in their own body, can surprise no one, though a little more respect to the people of England might have been expected from them—The day will come, however, when it will no longer by possible to refuse the just desires of the People of England on this subject." — Me Times, of Thursday last, referring to the de bate of Monday, has the following remark :—" If any proof were vvanting of the total indifference of the greater number of thoe Members of Par liament, who are usually denominated the Repre sentatives of the Landed Interest, to the expen diture of the public money, the proceedings of Monday last on the Army Estimates would sup ply that proof. In a House of 658 Members only 27 could be found, at any one time of the even ing, to oppose the several extravagant grants." THE KING'S BIRTH-DAY. The Officers of the Royal Marines quartered at Chatham had a grand dinner, in honour of his MAJESTY'S Birth-day; on which occasion Major- General DESBOROUGH, the Commandant, pre sided, and the day was spent with tho utmost conviviality. The Public Breakfast at Sydney Gardens, Bath, in honour of his MAJESTY' Birth-day, was most brilliantly attended. Near 800 persons of the highest order of rank and fashion, elegance and beauty, attended the delightful spot : where a dejeune was laid out in a very tasteful style, and partaken of with the utmost gout and satis faction. An excellent band played enlivening and loyal tunes, and the company continued several hours in the enjoyment of the cheerful promenade, and the refreshing beauties of the sylvan scene. his MAJESTY'S Birth-day was also celebrated by a public dinner, at the White Lion, which was attended by a numerous company of the most respectable trading inhabitants of this city.- Mrs. Arnold provided a sumptuous entertain ment, comprising all the delicacies of the season, and laid out with peculiar taste and elegance the wines were of the best flavour ; and all the guests declared they never sat down to a dinner more admirably served in every respect. Glee, good humour, and loyalty pervaded the table ; several excellent songs were given by the com pany ; and among the toasts were many appro priately adapted to the honourable occasion of the meeting, which it was unanimously agreed should be held annually at the same house, for the same loyal purpose. LOWESTOFFE.—On the Kinf's Birth-day the loyal and respectable inhabitants of this . place celebrated the anniversary at the Queen's Head ; the Rev. Mr. Anguish in the Chair. Many loyal and constitutional toasts were drank ; the King's health was given amidst the greatest enthusiasm, and received with five distinct rounds of applause. The company enjoyed a very pleasant' evening. ItEiOATE.—St. George's day, as the anniver sary of the King's Birth, was ushered hi in this ancient and respectable borough, by the ringing of bells, which was continued at intervals during the day. At four o'clock about forty of the principal inhabitants sat down" to a surriptuous dinner at the White Hart, Dr. Shelley in the Chair, supported by th^ bankers of the town, Ernly Gale, and Isr ae l Pip e r, Esqrs. Many loyal toasts were drank. A band attended and played several favourite loyal pieces of music, the greatest hilarity prevailed, and 'Steward§ were elected for the ensuing year, it being deter mined to meet annually, in furtherance of the loyal feelings of the inhabitants. t i We understand that it is in contemplation to form a new road between London and Dublin through Gloucester; and the coaches are, in. stead of driving on to Carmarthen, to turn off at Llandovery to the New Quay, in Cardiganshire, where a steam-packet will pass and repass ; so that a person travelling to Ireland. Would only be one night on the road, T , EICESTERSIIIRF- --- The General Quarter Sessions for this County commenced on Monday last,. before a numerous Bench of Magistrates, and did not terminate till late last Thursday evening. The Chairman (Sir CHARLES PALmEn), Bart.) addressed the Grand Jury to the following effect Gentlemen of the Grand Jury,—A circumstance of an unusual nature has occurred since' the list Sessions, which calls - for some observation from the Bench. I allude to a e nomst ranee which has, been presented to the Load Li-Cotenant orsarbe increase of County Rates, which, with that uniform at tention to the interests of the County, which his Grace on all occasions manifests, has been by him snbmitted to our cousi iteration. As the result of that consideration, I have first to lisove, that the subject is but ill nuderstood by the very few persons.(naMely, the constable's of tight parishes, lying contiguous, or nearly so, to each other) front whom the re monstrance proceeds; and, secondly, that as the accounts are made public every year, it would have been more to the pur pose to hare pointed out where the imputed excess lay, than to have inoulated in a general ac cusat i or i o f a w h o l e b o d y. accompanied with some (not eery liberal) insinuations against a particular part of it. That County Rates have increased, I do not deny but that the increase originates either in the negligence or profusion of the Magistrates, I do allitm to be utterly unfounded. .t slight acquaintance with those Acts of Parliament, which impose this Rate on Counties, would hare shewn that on this subject our acts are ministerial and . not judicial; that is to say, that the Legislature directs the Magistrates to call 'you the County to perform its duty to itself, and to levy those sums which are to be ea trended -for the advantage Of the public. The great increase of the popu lation, and the various fillet nations in the trade of thi , • County, which we have all witnessed, could nut by_ any sensible observer of human af f airs be expected to have been inoperative on our public expenditure. Accordingly, we have necessarily been exposed to additional expence in the prosecution of felons, in theS passing of va grants, and in the construction and repair of bridges.— The multiplied concerns of Mankind having increased—the temptations to crime have rendered our Gaols insufficient, and our Courts inadequat e'to the husittess which is tube con ducted in them. Coot inued - remonstrance has been made by the Juidges of Assize on this subject, which has, at last, com pelled the Bench to turn their attention to those Improve 7 moats, whi,ch, they well knew, they were, by Law, compella ble to effect. 'nose who are conversant in our Law Books knew, that where such remonstrances have failed, a Fine has been imposed ; and, we think, that we have exercised a smuts, discretion, by the timely avoidance of such an alternative. What - has-been observed will, I think, account for the Sup posed excess, which, however, has been witch magnified, by a generally prevalent misconception, as to the quantum levied, in the Pound, for this Rate. I speak advisedly, when I say; that in no yearims it amounted to lii in the Pound, till the last, which may lie quoted Fourpence Farthing; which in crease is, in some degree, owing to the Rate of the preceding year, viz. 3d. haying been taken upon too' low a calculation. That it should be necessary to raise this sum, is by no-means a matter of indifference to the Bench, all of whom arc direct ly or indirectly Contributors towards it. Let us, however, look around and see, it we,-of this County, are more horthen ed than the'Owners and Occupiers in other Counties; and lastly, let Its reflect how many public and private advantages we alt derive from this source. At this time I need not enu merate the-en, for many will lie remunerated, before the con clusion of this Session, from the Comity Purse, who would otherwise have been left to bear their legal expenses, in midi Lion to the plunder of which they come here to complain, The construction and repair of Bridges, if not provi'ded for by. the County, would necessarily hare fallen upon the Parishes in which they were situated, and would have been a hurthen too heavy fur them to bear. In short, Gentlemen - , the whale scope 'and intent of the Acts of Parliament on this subject, have nothing but the -general good in view; and however we may lament the season in which the pressure falls upon us, we can neither take blame to ourselves, as Guardians of the Public Purse, or impute it to the Legisla ture."—(l,tit ester Journal.) At the Quarter Sessions for this County, held on Monday last, Mr. Edward Marston was ap pointed Keeper of the House of Correction, in the room of Mr. Phillips, deceased.—(lbid.) BOSWORTH FIELD.—Mr. BELL, who has SO much distinguished himself in the Huntingdon Peerage, informs us, relative to this celebrated place, that Richard, regarding the confiscation of the estates of Hastings, as if struck with remorse, or, what is more probable, pursuing his usual line of policy, by letters under his privy signet, dated at Reading, the 23d July following, removed the attainder, and restored the forfeited posses sions of the family, with the exception of the manor of Loughborough, which, he alleged, be longed of right to his own wife. It is rather a singular fact, and not unworthy particular notice here, that Bosworth Field, where Richard not long after ended his life and ill acquired domi nion, was part of the estate of Hastings, whose murder he had so treacherously procured. It would seem as if Providence had decreed this spot to be the theatre of its retribution, in order more deeply to embitter. the tyrant's fall, and remind him, at that avenging moment, of the foul act by which he may be said to have com menced his career of crime. " A greater judg ment of God than this upon Hastings,- I have never observed in any story," says Sir Walter Raleigh. " For the self same day that the Earls Rivers, Grey, and others, were (without trial of law, or offence given) by Hastings' advice, executed at Pomfret; I say Hastings himself, in the same day, and (as I take it) in the same hour, in the same lawless manner, had his head stricken off in thetower of London."—(lbid.) We last - week noticed the finding of some Ro man remains at Castor, near Peterborough ; fur ther discoveries have been since made by Mr. Artis, the principal of which is a splendid tas selated pavement, of the rarest antiquity, and in the most perfect state of preservation. This beautiful work has been completely laid open, and is found to admeasure eleven feet nine, sur rounded by strong foundations. Floors of point ed plasters, and others of the larger tessellx, have also been discovered, with coins,, trinkets, urns, and similar articles of undoubted Roman manufacture. Three hundred yards of this an cient city have been already explored ; and our i correspondent informs us that Mr. A rtis has no doubt of connecting the Forty foot way with the Ermine street and the Roman way called the Long Dyke, of which Camden and other writers have spoken much, but no one has yet traced the ways from Stamford. We are happy to cor rect the account of Mr. Artis' discoveries given in our last Paper :—the pavement first found by him was destroyed and removed on Sunday the 15th inst. by some persons unknown, and not by Mr. Artis; and the apartment said to have been discovered under an ancient gateway, had not a *pavement in it, but the plaster Walls on one side of the room were perfectly sound. Four elephant's malores (grinding teeth) have also been found, with leg bones of the same animal, and other re mains.of that kind.—( Stamford illereurN.) Some labourers digging for gravel a few days since at Littleton, in an open field, discovered some human bones, and 'the foundation of an ancient- wall, enclosing a quadrangular area about ten yards from the Roman road called Askwell street ; within this area are a number of Roman urns perfect, composed of red and others of black argillacious earth ; only one coin was found, on which iy the head of the Emperor Trajan.
