TILE LONDON 'JOURNALS. S7LTRAETS FROM THE DAILY MORNING PAPERS, Jam 5, 18'2'2. [BRITISH PRESS.] The foreign Papers present us with a pretended declaration of war by the Emperor of Russia against Turkey. Our Parliamentary Report this cozy presents a more formidable document : it is a declaration of war by Sir Thos. Lethbridge against Ministers, grounded upon the inadequacy of their promised relief to the agricultural in terest of the .country. The Honourable Mem brr contends, very fairly we think, that all the meaciures proposed for that purpose, and we dare say no more are intended in the present Session, I fall short of the expectation and actual wants of the agriciiltural interest. The Marquis of Lon donderry, in his answer, admits that butter and cheese and flax, trifling articles we suppose of no value, may not have attracted very particular notice, but as evidence of a just attention to economy, he refers to the reduction of the taxes. A few words will suffice to settle the matter between these disputants. Since the peace Alinitters laid on three millions a year of additional taxes ; they have since remitted in the Malt Tax and the Agricultural Horse Tax about two millions; and they now propose to remit 1,800,0001. by " a scheme," as the Marquis of Londonderry very properly calls it, which, by counteracting the Sinking Fund to the same extent, is only an exchange of the burden from the present to the next generation. This is all that has been done, or is promised to be done, for the relief of the agricultural interest. As for the Bill now before the House, every man who understands the agricultural interests .of the country says, " we are better without it, and the present law, however defective, is preferable to the innovation." [THE 'FEU ES.] Letters from Rio de Janeiro, ,dated the 13th March, state that great numbers of the Spanish families from Buenos Ayres, who had abandoned that provinCe during the troubles by which it was lately agitated, and settled in Brazil, were returning home, satisfied with the prospects of secur►ty under the existing Government. This province, it will be recollected, was the first to shake off the yoke of colonial. subjection. It has not in fact seen a single Spanish soldier, or at any rate a Spanish force, with any pretensions to its obedience, since the revolution in the Pen insula ; and during the last ten years it has not only exhibited an example of .independence, but has assisted distant provinces to attain the same enviable blessing. That blessing, however, has not been without alloy. Conflicts between rival candidates for supreme power, and disputes about the camparative.merits of a federal or con solidated Government for the whole of the pro vinces bordering on La Plata and its tributary rivers, have more than once occasioned civil disorders in the capital, and terminated in pro scription and bloodshed. At those periods volun tary exile was embraced by numbers of citizens who preferred their commerce to their country, and the secure possession of their wealth to the patriotic assertion of their freedom. Since the advancement of Mr. Ribadavia, well known both tfi England and France for his wisdom, firmness, and patriotism, to the office of President, all ap prehensions of disorder have been removed, and consequently we hear of the, return of his coun trymen to share the benefits of his Government. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] We yesterday observed that the cause of Re form, aided by circumstances, was advancing with such rapid strides in this country-, that those in whose hands power was now placed would soon be compelled by the overwhelming force of public opinion to relinquish it. The signs of the times are, in fact, not to be mistaken by the most superficial observer. Tories to whom the very name of Reform was till lately an abomi nation, are now hastening to proclaim their_ con- Version to its doctrines. Even Sir Thomas Leth. l bridge declared last night in the House of Com mons, that he thought Reform absolutely ne cessary, while Lord 'Londonderry complains bitterly of the inflammatory language of his old friends. This is all in the natural order of things —it is the necessary result of the mad career which the.. Government of this country has so long pursued—it is the final development of the Pitt System. We are now reaping the reward of our exertions to restore the Bourbons, the Pope and the Inquisition—to infuse fresh blood into the exhausted veins of superstition—to prop up feudality, and, under the prostituted name of religion, to send forth armies of Missionaries to *debase and brutalize the minds of the people. We are now reaping the rewards of our war in behalf of religion and social order, that social order of which the edifice was no sooner secured by the crowning victory, than it began to threaten its supporters.. There are now insidious attempts Made to undermine it, said the Chancellor . - attic!. clay. Insidious! Why, good God! the in struments of destruction are brought forth in open day, and daringly used. It is only the -Pitt-clubists who now need to make insidious attempts. ( - NEW TIMES.] The Morning Chronicle attempts to justify the ;libel whiCh was laid on the table of the House of .Commons on Monday evening, in the shape of a Petition from some Persons in Norfolk: The Courier, on the. other hand, offers a sort of .. .humble apology for the rejection of this, libel, by the majority of the House. We must say that, upon strict constitutional principles, we differ almost equally from both our cotemporaries. If the, paper was really such as it is in substance .represented by them both to have been, the law :of the- land would pronounce. it to be in the 'highest degree scandalous and seditious ; ,and common sense teaches us, that to address a scan. Aalous and seditious libel to a branch of the Sove leign.POwer, must,. in any country, be a crime de ;"erving.to be. visited with severe and exemplary , nishrnent. , ..Godforbid that the lawful rightof iitionihould be in the slightest degree abridged! , God forbid that the subject should not hare the fullest latitude to state his grievances ! but they are the deadliest enemies of the right of petition who use it as a cloak for direct and daring insult to the assembled majesty of the nation. Is it a petition to any man, or is it an insult, to tell him to his face that be is corrupt, and that he is at all times willing to support another person in unprincipled conduct ? Yet such is the lan guage which both The Chronicle and The Courier represent these pretended petitioners to have held to the majority of the House of Commons. The proper way to deal with such persons is, not to reject their petitions, but to order them to the bar of the House, to see whether any one of them will dare to avow such language, and then to let the law take its course. [MORNING POST.] Some differences have arisen between Spain and the Dey of Algiers, in consequence of claims set up by the latter to the property of certain Jewish and Spanish defaulters who seem to have received protection on the Spanish territory. The Spaniards talked very big, and threatened the Dey, if he should`persist in his claims, with a declaration of war, a threat in which the Dutch Consul also joined. The Dey, however, who ap pears to have justice on his side, replied with becoming spirit, and at the same time with much sense and moderation, and followed up his answer by preparations for defence, which shewed that he was serious in his intention of meeting the hostility of Spain rather than sacrificing what he conceived to be his just 'rights. The Spanish Ambassador departed with this answer in the frigate which had brought him, and matters re mained in this situation at the beginning of the last month, as will be seen by the following translation of a letter from Algiers, dated the 17th Rajet, 1237, which corresponds with the 7th of April, 1822.—" At the beginning of this month, a Spanish frigate arrived here, bringing an Ambassador from Spain. A week after his land ing, the object of his mission was still unknown ; but at the expiration of that period the Spanish Consul explained it, in the Ambassador's name, to the Pacha, in the following terms The three different claims which you have made on my Government are not well founded. The pro perty of the Israelite comes into Spain through ahran (a town), as well as the engagements of our Spanish merchant at Algiers, are connected with commercial transactions which have failed, and in which you have nothing to claim. With respect to the 3d, the loan which we owe to Jo seph Bakry, the Regency has no right to claim the property of an individual, although he be her subject. All she can do, in case we do not fulfil our engagements ; is to support him, but not to re ceive money for him. We admit ourselves to be indebted to that individual, and what we owe we shall pay to his heirs. These are points to which you have nothing to reply, and, if you insist on your claims, we shall declare war upon you.' The Consul added other menances of the same kind, and equally unprovoked. The Paella replied in a calm and admirable manner, " Give me legal proof of the bankruptcy of the two first persons, and I will abandon my claims ; but, if you cannot prove it, pay my demand. As to the third case, the loan which you have borrowed from Joseph Bakry, you say well it is to be re paid to his heirs, I have no intention to take his property ; but, as the said Bakry owes a large sum to the Regency, I must receive that which is le gally its due, and the rest shall be paid over to his heirs, or to their trustees.—(Such an observation from a despotic Sovereign, who unites all the powers of the State in himself, is worth notice, as it shows that he possesses just notions of com mon right.)—l must, therefore, insist on these points of right, until you obey the dictates of justice. As to menaces, beware how you make them. lam ready for war if you declare it, and to defend my rights."—The Consul quitted the palace, the frigate sailed, and the matter remains in this situation. On the very day of the Ambassador's departure, the Pacha ordered the fortifications of the town to be put in a state of defence, and all necessary prepara tions to be made to repel an attack.—The Dutch Consul then sent the following mes sage to the Pacha : ' Know, Seignor, that we are the allies of Spain, and that if you go to war with one country, you will have it with the other too. If the Spanish Consul has quitted Algiers, I shall also embark.' I'he Pacha, on this oc casion, very properly and wisely answered : You ought not to meddle with the affairs of others. if it is your intention to quit my country, and to declare war against me. do it by a written declaration, in which you will state, according to truth, that hostilities commence on your part. Then farewell, lam ready to defend myself against all who may assail me. Learn, besides, that the peace which exists between you and the Regency, is on account of England, and is due to the respect which we have for that country, and not to your insulting conduct.'—This second threat of war has also re mained without any result, and the Dutch and Spanish squadrons have retired to Mahon." SHOCKING CATASTROPHE.—A most melan choly and distressing scene presented itself on Friday last, at Horif;ver's-quay, near Pentillie Castle. A man having occasion to light the lime-kiln, went down from the kiln head, as is usual on such occasions, to make a hole, or what is termed a chimney, with a rod of iron, when he was suffocated by the gas arising from the culm. A second man went down to his assistance, who instantly shared a similar fate. A third followed, and he also lost his life. — A fourth man had still the courage to descend to the assistance of his unfortunate companions ; he took the precaution, however, to tie a rope round his middle, but was no sooner down than he dropped as the others had done. He was im mediately drawn up senseless, and after a con sideral3le time restored to life. The three men who had descended into, the fatal kiln were after much difficulty drawn up, but the vital park was extinct. It is a lamentable ,circum stance that each of the sufferers has left a wife to deplore his Untimely fate ; and the children of the three families amount to twenty !—dstrong appeal to the benevolence of the charitable and • humane.—(Cornyvall Gazette) LEICESTERSHIRE PITT CLUB. The Anniversary of this Club was holden at the Three Crowns Inn, in Leicester, on Tuesday, the 28th of May, to celebrate the Birth of the late Right Hon. WILLIAM PITT, and was numerously attended. Colonel BURNABY pre sided. After the cloth was removed, the usual series of toasts and sentiments were given by the Chairman, in the following order : " TheiKlNG."—Three times three.—Song and chorus—" God save the King." The Duke of York and the Army.—Three times three.— Glee—" Hail Star of Brunswick." The Duke of Cambridge, and his Majesty's Loyal Subjects in Hanover.—Three times three.—Song—" Loyalty." The CHAIRMAN next propoied the Immortal Memory of the late Right Honourable WILLIAM PITT.—IIC observed, in introducing this toast, that it had always been customary with his predecessors to excite the admiration of the company by elo quent panegyrics on the consummate Statesman whose memory they were assembled to celebrate. 'Would to God he possessed equal abilities to follow their good example ; but, though de ficient in those qualifications, he would yield to none in the ad miration be imbibed for the abilities of that illustrious States man, and in the gratitude he felt for the services rendered by him to our country—services unequalled by any Statesman this country ever had to boast of.—(Applause.)—lt was unnecessary for him to enter into a detailed history of the eventful period when the abilities and firmness of Mr. PITT were peculiarly conspicuous, as that was perfectly fresh in the memory of every one present.—Suffice it then to say, he stood fearlessly at the helm of his country, when assailed by enemies without, and the storm of faction and rebellion within ; and therefore well me rited the title of—" The Pilot who weathered the storm." This toast was received with rapturous applause, and drank with three times three. Song—" Pitt, the Patriot's name." The CHAIRMAN then rose to propose " The Protestant As cendancy," which was hailed with loud cheers. He took oc casion to dilate upon the extreme importance of supporting the Protestant interest at the present event ful period. He firmly hoped that the Civil And Ecclesiastical Constitution of the Country, under which we had received so many blessings, would be preserved inviolate by our Legislators.—(Loud ap plause.) The toast was drank with three times three, and in . a manner fully expressive of the opinion of the company upon the Ro man Catholic Question. Glee—" Rex, Lex, and Pontifex." May the principles of Mr. Pitt ever animate the Councils of Great Britain—three times thiee. Song—" For Pitt the Patriot dear."—(Written for the occa sion ; vide THE SUN of the 28th of May.) William Ralph Cartwright, Esq. M.P. and the London Pitt Club—three times three. Mr. CHESLYN returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN then proposed the health of " The Duke of Rutland, Lord Lieutenant of the County," observing, that the well known excellencies and amiable character of the Duke, rendered it unnecessary for him to expatiate on the readiness with which his Grace at all times stood forward to promote the welfare of the county, and whose prosperity was his anxious wish. Drank amidst the warmest demonstrations'of respect and at tachment—with three times three. Glee—" The Red Cross Knights." " The Duchess of Rutland, and the Fair Advocates of Loyalty."—three times three. Glee—" Here's a Health to all Good Lasses." Mr. Gouoss then rose, and said that he entertained the firmest conviction that by introducing the estimable character whose health he was about to propose, he should fully atone for the liberty which he assumed to himself. He then con gratulated the Meeting upon its numerical force, evincing a becoming zeal to offer their annual tribute of veneration and respect to the memory of that great political architect, by whose design, and upon whose basis, the matchless beauties of our constitutional fabric had been elevated; and the recollection of whose gigantic abilities, splendid virtues, and consummate integrity, every generous and grateful Briton must revere.— The Honourable Gentleman, after paying a merited tribute of applause to the public and private character of the Worthy President; concluded with proposing his health, which was drank with the utmost enthusiasm. Colonel BITILNABY returned thanks in an appropriate speech. " The immortal memory of King George the Third" was drank in silence, amid evident feelings of respect and venera- tion. " The Duke of Newcastle and the Nottingham Pitt Club," three times three. Mr. CIIESLver, as a Member of the Nottingham Pitt Club, returned thanks in an animated and impressive speech._ He 'recollected with pleasure the time whe n he was President of that Club ; and could assure the Company that the principles of Mr. Pitt were not venerated higher in any part of the coun try than amidst the Members composing the Club at Notting ham. The difficulties which they had to encounter, from pe culiar circumstances, served only to prove the sincerity of their attachment, and the firmness of their principles. Glee—" In Sherwood's Grove." Mr. Po c Hier reminded the company, that the Corporation of Leicester had ever been considered as warm supporters of those principles which had for their object the maintenance of the best interests of the Country in Church and State ; he there fore begged to propose—" The Mayor and Corporation of Lei ceister, which was drank with,three times three. The MaYou of LEICESTER rose to return thanks for the honour conferred upon the Corporation and himself, and for the cordiality with which the toast had been received. He could with truth assure the Meeting that, as a public Body, they were firmly attached to the principles of that great and good man whose birth they this day were met to celebrate ; and he should be doing the Body Corporate a great injustice, if he were not to declare, that they were at all times most anxious and desir ous of promoting any measure that had for its abject the sup port of our glorious Constitution in Church and State.—(Loud applause.) Mr. CifE.4l.Yet begged to propose the health of " Sir Frede rick Fowke," as a most valuable and efficient member of the Club, and than whom no one had its interest more at heart , o r had been more active in its service.—Sir Frederick's health was drank with great applause, and evident feelings of respect. Song—" Should auld acquaintance be forgot." The health of " Nathaniel Atcheson, Esq., the father of the London Pitt Club, was then proposed, and drank amid loud cheers. Mr. STOCKDALE HARDY proposed as a toast, " the Lord Chancellor, and Success to the Protestant Interest." He was well aware that a diversity of opinion existed respecting the sen timents of Mr. Pitt on the Roman Catholic question ; but it was a libel upon his illustrious memory to suppose for a mo, ment that he would have consented to an alteration of the Con stitution he so much loved, to7please a part of its subjects, at the expence, and against the inclinations, of the great majority of them. There could belittle doubt as to the line of conduct which the illustrious Pilot would have pursued; had he been spared to Babe seen what were the sentiments of the Country, and he was always a decided enemy to any thing like unrestricted con cessions. In the dawn oflife ; Mr. Pitt wasthe firm friend of Pro testantism ; in maturer years, the intrepid advocate of civil li berty ; and on the couch of dissolution, a faithful son of the Church of England. Upon these grounds, therefore, it was matter of congratulation that the Protestant ascendancy" still continued a standing toast of the Club. It would, indeed, have beenatrange if on any occasion when they met to celebrate the Triumph of the Constitution, that should not have been drank which formed its principal ingredient.—(Applause.)—ln ! mentioning the name of the Lord ChanCellor—the firm cham pion of the Protestant cause, and the keeper, for so many years, of an afflicted and revered Monarch's conscience—he was confi dent he was meeting the wishes of the Club in asking them to join in a testimony of grateful recollection for his Lordship's eminent services as a public character, and of cordial esteem for his virtues as a private one. Though sinking into the " vale of years," his Lordship would be found at his post in the hour of trial, in defence of those institutions for which their ancestors had fought and bled—for which heroes had fallen and martyrs suffered :---bulwarks which, if once destroyed, could never be replaced, and which constituted the surest, the only guarantees for the safety of the Throne and the happiness of the people. He begged, therefore, to propose " The Lord Chan cellor, and success to the Protestant interest in the House of Peers." The toast was drank with great enthusiasm, and with three times three. Glee—" The King and the Church." The health of Mr. Jackson, the Honorary Secretary of the Club, was then given, and drank with much applause. Mr. JACKSON, in a speech of considerable length, expressed his high sense of the honour which the company had conferred upon him, and assured the Club that his services were always at its command. lie congratulated the meeting upon - the in creased attendance of members, to what had appeared at some recent anniversaries, and made some strong and pointed com ments upon certain 'local misrepresentations which had been made with respect to the permanence and strength of the So ciety. A number of other toasts and sentiments followed, and the Meeting separated, highly delighted with the proceedings of the day. LITERARY NOTICE. TALES of the DRAMA.—By Miss MACAULEY. The Public have already witnessed, though, we are sorry to say, not so often as they ought, the histrionic powers of the fair Authoress who now comes before them with a new claim to their attention. In the work, here under re view, she has boldly and fairly stepped forward into the literary arena ; and, not confining her self to one species of style or composition, but varying her subjects from grave to gay, from the classic pomp of the buskin to the lighter trip of the sock, she displays a versatility of power, not often found in the same individual, and at the same time under a contrast so striking, that one almost hesitates to believe the various tales to be the product of the same pen. The selection seems very judicious, not only for variety, but for general effect ; the tragic tales being from SHAKSPEAR E, MASSINGER, SHIR LEY, ROWE, MURPHY, Lamm, and MoottE; and the comic from STEELE, F ARQUHAR, CUM BERLAND, BICKERSTAFF, GOLDSMITH, and Mr 3. COWLEY. The limits of a Newspaper will not permit us to offer a fair specimen of the work ; for its merit does not so much depend upon particular striking passages, though such are very numerous throughout, as upon the ingenuity with which the acted Drama is turned into a tale possessing all the intricacy of dramatic plot, all the sur prize of scenic effect, all the interest of minute detail, and all the rapidity of denouement which delight upon the stage, even whilst the strict ness of narrative is completely retained. If we were to point out specific instances, where this spirit is most strongly marked, " Richard the c2d" and the " Inconstant," must claim the first rank ; yet it is almost invidious to make selection, so well adapted is every tale, both in conduct and in style, to the subject which it treats of. It is unnecessary to say, after these observa tions, that the style' is good, varied, and appro priate ; but we must add, that no opportunity is neglected where a moral can be elicited, a virtue inculcated, or the general subject illustrated. To execute this purpose, short quotations and extracts are made from the plays under consideration, where such presented themselves : and in nume rous instances poetical_illustrations are introduc ed from the Author's muse, manifesting a spirit of moral and liberal piety, honourable to herself, and which, we trust, will not be lost upon the rising generation, for whose improvement the tales were originally commenced, but now com pleted in a style that fits them alike for the par lour window or the library. The paper and letter-press are excellent, and the embellishments numerous; and worked off in a very superior style ; but still we must re commend that a second edition should be in larger type, and on larger paper. We also suggest the propriety of prefixing the names of the several Authors of the Plays of which she has given such amusing and interesting illustra tions. LAM INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 4. ROUSE V. DOYLE. The plaintiff, a surgeon, residing at Fulham ' brought his action to recover 241. as a compensation for skill and medical attendance. • It appeared that the son of the defendant, a young medical student, had shattered his hand by the burting of his fowling piece, and the plaintiff was called in to afford professional assist ance. The injury was severe, and amputation necessary. The hand was taken off by the plaintiff, and some time after the ope ration he sent in a bill of 181 . 2 s. 6 d. The defendant considered the demand excessive, and tendered 101., which was refused. The plaintiff then brought the present action. After the case had been proved, the defence was found to rest on two grounds. It was contended that the charge was excessive ; and, secondly, that the plaintiff had shewn a want of skill in the operation, which made it necessary to call in Dr. Reece (the Medical Gentleman who declared Joanna Southcote in a state of pregnancy.) 1)r. Reece being examined, stated that he was a Member of the Royal College. He looked at the amputation performed on the defendant's son, and found that a splinter of the bone had been left. He also removed a piece of skin which would have retarded the cure. The Jury, under all the circumstances, found a verdict for the plaintiff for 181.25. 6d. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE 4. ASSAULT.—CURLING V. HAVDOCK. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover damages for an assault committed on his son, a youth of eighteen years of age, by the defendant. It appeared in evidence, that the plaintiff had conducted himself in such a manner while on horseback in the Park (pul ling up the skirts of his coat), as to induce the defendant to suspect that offence towards him was intended; and finding the same repeated, he proceeded to horsewhip him. But there being no proof that the defendant meant his motions offensively towards the defendant, and the latter not having satisfied him self by previous inquiry whether offence to him was actual ly intended, the Jury found a verdict for the Plaintiff-7001. damages. CITY BUSINESS.-1:11D LORD MAYOR be, a Court of Aldermen yesterday at Guildhah for the general dispatch of public business, which was numerously attended.—The Courts of Conservancy for Essex and Kent were ap pointed to be held on Thursday the 20th inst., and for Surrey and Middlesex on Thursday the 27th inst., and precepts directed to issue accord ingly.--The Court unanimously voted their thanks to William Saint Julien Arabin, Esq. for the at tention, ability, temper, and punctuality, with which he performed the very important functions of a Judge at the Sessions House in the Old Bailey, in conformity to the wishes of the Court.

Southey and Scott suspend your clacking, And hear me sing of TURNER'S Blacking. 'Tis worth against all others backing, Who vainly vie with Turner's Blacking. In George's Fields I watch'd the packing Of hampers fill'd with Turner's Blacking. And svish'd (no wonder !)
