THE LONDON JOUMALS. ,WfRACTS FROM Tur. DAILY ,MORNING PAPERS, Jiztli 25, 1822. CHEW TIMES.] :Utters and 'Papers from Rio Janeiro to the sth May, and from PernambuCO to the sth June, were received in town yesterday morning. Every thing in the Brazils continues in the most per fect tranquillity, and the Prince Regent has, since his return, been assiduously devoting him self—to the permanent establishment of a well selected Representative Governr;ent, and has at knell, it is said, determined on introducing a la* Tor the eleCtion of the Deputies in a similar manner to that at present adopted in Portugal. — la :confirmation of this determination, it ap pear* that the Prince Regent has dispatched a. .message to the, Cortes of Portugal, inform ing them, that having, during his recent tour into the interior of the country, made himself ac qtfainted with the general feeling throughout the Brazils, he had resolved on immediately convok ing the Deputies in the manner described. What effect - this determination may have in Lisbon, it is difficult to say ; but immediately on its trans piring at Pernambuco, that province, as appears by the accounts above referred to, instantly de clared itself in faVour of the plan, and corn menced preparations for carrying the views of the Prince Regent into effect. it was_not doubted fo - r . a moment that every other province in ,the - Brazils would follow the example of Pernambuco. [THE rues.] ,A :Petition was last night presented to the House of Commons by Mr. Spring Rice, from sense humane inhabitants of Middlesex and sarrey, entreating the lionse to take into further consideration the condition of their distressed fellow -subjects in Ireland. The good cause of charity thrives, apace; and we do venture to hope, that in a fortnight more the worst of the evil will have - been encountered. Never was there displayed a continued effort of humanity more indefatigable or more delightful. The volun tary-subscriptions for the Irish by the people of England have now exceeded two hundred thou sand pounds. This, too, at a season of no in considerable suffering at home, and on behalf of those who will never possess any means of re payment but by their prayers and their blessings. There are still some amongst us, we lament to say, ,who stand out perversely against the indul gen& of that feeling ,which has so animated and so honoured the great mass of their countrymen. [BRITISH PRESS.] Letters from Washington of tir. date of the 25th ult. mention, that fresh despatches had been received from Russia, stating that the Emperor entertained the most friendly disposition towards, all Powers, but particularly to the United States ;' but his Imperial Majesty, it appeared, had not consented to withdraw the Edict respecting the Ruisian posSessions on the western coast of North America. Matters, therefore, remained in precisely the same situation as by the preceding accounts, aid it was conjectured that the Emperor had de layed giving any specific answer to the remon strances of the American Goirernment until he had atteertained what was the real feeling of theßritish Cabinet with regard to his pretensions. As, how ever, it 1-as been declared from authority that oar Government hai protested in strong terms against the pretended right of his Imperial Ma jesty, it is more than probable that he will deem it not only advisable, but absolutely necessary-, td Concede the point at issue. The attendance in the House of Commons las) was very thin, the business not interesting agd every thing wears the appearance of the ap. proaching close of the Session.—(Mid.) - [friORNING CHRONICLE.] As the most erroneous notions with respect to Turkey in Europe are day after day repeated by Ministers, and the Journals in their interest, we Shall lay before our Readers a few considerations, folinded on the actual state of that country. — ..4o in the first'place with respect to Govern rnent.—There-is really nothing in Turkey which deServes that name. It has neither Laws nor Constitution. VlThat is called Government is properly a number of assemblages of Banditti, spread over the country, but more numerous at Con stantinople than elsewhere. The power of the Sul tan in Constantinople amounts really to nothing. The Pachas and Governorsappointed by the Porte areoriginally Ttirkish Slaves, who have no country, Eind know none, who never consider the -place ' over which their authority extends as their home, who have no object but to accumulate moneyand increase their power, to prevent themselves from being stript'of every t'ing. They are in a con stant state Of rebellion to the Porte, and the . Porte on its part is as constantly employed in attempts to crush them either by assassination or by arms: They know no other policy than . ra pine,- than devastating the place they inhabit, lind spoiling those who are under them. The Greeks do not acknowledge the Sultan for their ACing, nor have they ever taken any oath to him. 'Neither Turk nor Christian in the Ottoman States in Europe has the least security for life or -property. We are completely warranted in re ireatitig after M. Chateaubriand, that the Turks are merely encamped in Europe, and in classing them in some measure along with the vagabond tribes, or people without fixed homes, who - are to be found in Turkey, as Jews and Gypsies, for instance. [MORNING HERALD.] The Paris Journals of Monday, which arrived last night by express, add little to the . informa tion previously received relative to'Spain. The , 'Auke del Infantado has been exiled to Badajos, apd * ,the Marquis de Las-Amarillas, formerly Minister of War, an Inspect-1. General, and a Privy Councillor, has been deprived of his func lions, and sent to Granada. It is understood that several oilier persons about the Court will be soon treated in a similar manner. The- re maim of the Royal guards have been ordered beyond a hundred leagues from the capital, divided into four detachrrients ; but their officers are retained at Madrid. It is stated, as a matter of report, that the counter-revolutionary party made an offer of five millions to General Morillo, on the 7th, if he would place himself at the head of the Guards. Morillo replied, " Five millions is a large sum, but the oath of a Spaniard is worth much more." A private letter in the Journal des Debuts asserts that a representation was made, on the 3d, to the Permanent Deputa tion of the Cortes, by 40 Members of the " left side," urging them to insist that the King should quit his Palace, and that if he would not, that they should declare him in a state of captivity, and• nominate a Regency. The same Deputies made a second representation on the 10th, sug gesting several measures for taking advantage of the victory which the. Constitutionalists had gained, and again recommending the appointment of a Provisional Regency. The King did not leave his Palace on the 11th, as was announced ; the indisposition of the Queen is assigned as the cause. The greatest tranquillity prevailed at Madrid. The Minister of the Low Countries at Madrid quitted that capital after the events of the 7th. [MORNING POST.] A subject occupied the Committee last even :ng in the House of Commons, to which we more particularly call the public attention, be cause it is one of those striking illustrations of that exaltation of a cultivated mind and refined taste, solicitously engaged in raising the national character by the promotion of literature and the arts, which his present Majesty has unceasingly evinced since he first exercised the authority of a Sovereign. We allude to an Address moved last night by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, requesting his Majesty to give such directions as might be necessary for hav ing a correct edition of the Ancient historians of this Realm drawn up and printed. The Right Hon. Gentleman, in most distinct terms, speci fied the many reasons which make it necessary and beneficial that a great work of this sort should be undertaken by the Government, and not left to the chance of individual speculation. In rising to second the motion, Sir J. Mackintosh depicted in glowing terms the political as well as li terary advantages of the measure. He also sketched the faint outline of a comparison between the past conduct of Britain,with regard to this subject, and that of other States—in which we blush to con fess the disadvantage was greatly on our side. Sir James Mackintosh well observed,'that consider ing our rank and renown among the nations of the world, we have shown an indifference to the promotion of public works of magnificence and ornament which it would be a mistake not to sup pose detrimental to the interests of the country. The justness of this remark, we are sure, will be generally admitted. In later times, it is only within the last ten years, that, under the especial patronage of his present Majesty, even a com mencement has been made to do the Empire justice in this respect. We need only refer to the splendid improvements now making in the neighbourhood of Cockspur-street, and the truly magnificent range of buildings almost completed between Carlton Palace and the Regent's Park—to the Retoration of Henry Vllth Chapel, and the front of Westminster Hall—to the erection of Waterloo Bridge, and of those exquisite, though stupendous specimens of Art, the new Temples of Religion raising in different parts of the Me tropolis—to prove the assertion which we have advanced. The printing of the National Ite cords is another instance to the same effect, and the one last night, a still prouder one for the age we live in. It is unnecessary to say that the motion was enthusiastically agreed to.—ln a Committee on the Superannuation Act Amend ment Bill, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, yielding to the representations of Mr. Calcraft, consented to exempt salaries of fifty pounds per annum, which were to have paid two and a half, per cent. from the operation of the Bill alto gether. Salaries from 1001. to 2001. are to pay two and a half per cent., and others are to con tribute five per cent. to the fund. -As undutifitl SON.—In the Court for the relief of Insolvent Debtors, the will of a Mr. was read, containing the following remarkable passage :—" I leave to my undutiful son, One Hundred 'f!lousand Pounds A terrible conflagration took place at Balti more on the 23d ult., which destroyed numerous stores and dwelling houses. The whole loss iS estimated at 40,000 dollars. Several persons perished. _ On Friday last, the boiler of a steam engine, belonging to Messrs. 3. and G. Hollings, brass founders, Tipping-street, Manchester, blew up. The boiler - itself, which weighs several tons, was thrown into the air. Several . adjoining buildings were seriously damaged, and a wall, about ten yards from the boiler, was thrown down. Serious injury was also done to the windows, doors, roofs, and. furniture of the neighbouring houses. Amidst such a destruction of property, it is a consolation to find., that there were no lives lost ; but a little girl had her leg broken by a brick; a man had his arm bruised ' by a similar cause ; and one of the workmen was severely bruised in one of his legs. The Engi neer had just left the engine house when the ex plosion took place.—( Leeds Intelligencer.) Thursday morning last, two men, one named William Reynolds, the other John Nash, were brought before the Magistrates at Ramsgate ; the former charged with an indecent exposure of his person on the preceding evening, by having jumped naked from the east. pier head,,when se veral ladies and others were walking near ; and the latter with encouraging • him in so doing.— Reynolds was convicted of the offence, and sen tenced• to one month's hard labour in the. House of Correction, - and sent to . Sandwich gaol imme diately. ' Nash Was recommitted to the care of the constable, till another eXannination had taken place. FOR: THE'StIN. ENTHUSIASM. " Non est joeus.esse malignum."—HoH. MR. EDITOR, -At an interval of leisure, per haps, you will insert the following observations on Enthusiasm in the columns of your paper. — Lately I have observed, in many instances, in the communications of your Correspondents, that asperity has been mistaken for humour, assertion put forward as evidence of fact, and invective for argument. The effect of such folly is evi dently so unsatisfactory, that I think it unneces sary to add a remark upon it. Therefore, I shall immediately subjoin the observations I intend to make upon enthusiasm, in the sense it is gene rally accepted, with respect to religion, and espe cially concerning the Methodists. The ignor ance of some people, the obstinacy and weakness of many, and the perversions made by others, have at various periods brought upon this Chris tian country much disgrace and obloquy, by ex posing its religious ceremonies and doctrines to unmerited scandal and traduction. On these oc casions, infidelity has not been remiss in its ex ertions to turn the existence of these miseries into an opportunity for the dissemination of its destructive principles, and like the lawyer in the fable, endeavoured to establish its own interest upon the disputes of the two clients, and pervert their quarrels to the advantage of " his law." That there have been enthusiasts, now called visionary fanatics, strutting their hour from time to time among us,is not to be denied. Bilt enthusiasm has not been charged against such people only who were demonstratively enthusiasts ; for the followers of Wesley and Whitfield have been incessantly pursued and assailed with the imputa tion : and thus not by parsimonious hands. It is against the Methodists alone, the accusation is brought : and the advocates of a Hume or a Gib bon appear to excite little or no interest or at tention among the opponents of Methodism : al though I apprehend it requires far more enthu siasm to become an Atheist, than a Methodist. Unitarians, Anabaptists, Arians, Arttinomians, Sze. and the Roman Catholics seem to be ex. eluded from the intended censure, for it is sel dom any of these are assailed with the charge of enthusiasm, or are regularly denominated enthu siasts ; yet, I suppose it must require something of the kind to adopt the doctrine of transub stantiation, or the efficacy of prayers to the Virgin Mary. Innumerable are the pamphlets which have been written and industriously cir culated against the Methodists, by envious and illiberal men ; not that I mean to assert all men have been such, who have opposed them ; on the contrary : yet, the majority of those who unhesi tatingly, without distinction, have charged the Me thodists with bigotry, have been such ; yet this is no matter of wonder, when we reflect how the column of writers on this subject is composed. In it have been greedily enlisted, and are at all times to be found foremost, libertines and infi dels. The body may consist of different writers from these, but of such is the rear formed, and by such is the main attack seconded and sup ported. The intermediate body of these writers may assert their disapprobation of the conduct of the elect, but it is just like the conduct of the Holy Alliancers who are confederated with the Turks, against the Christians. The Holy Al liancers call the deeds of the Turks murders, and abominable ; but nevertheless remain at home and take credit to themselves for humane policy, whilst calmly contemplating the field of battle, smoking with the blood and gore of their fellow Christians, without one attempt to check the massacres committed by the infidel host ; a host, who when they do not murder, ravish the victims of their successful wars, and in the eyes of the mottle- slaughter her children without any mercy, and, scattered through the streets, leave the massacred bodies of parents, relatives, and friends. Perhaps I have digressed a little, but the comparison for awhile suited my purpose, and then I felt inclined to put an additional ob servation upon it. But to return to my sub ject. It is not my intention to include amongst these writers even such a writer as Nightingale. lie had seen improprieties amongst the followers of Wesley, and he felt the ignominy which one day they would bring upon the Institution, and therefore he beneficially exposed them ; but, of every uncha ritable, dishonest, and interested motive he stands acquitted, or ought to do so, deservedly. Dr. Butler, who is now put forward and hailed, like Southey, but in a more especial and merited manner, with rapture by the Established Church, has said, institutions are not to be judged by their perversions, bit their natural tendencies : it was, doubtlessly, in this light Nightingale viewed the condutt of some of the Methodists ; his writings were not directed against the So ciety, hut against the innovations upon, and per versions of, the original Institution. But it is not thus with the Correspondent on this subject lately in your Paper:, he eagerly desires these Evangelicals, whether tight or wrong, to be allowed the enjoyment of " their doctrines to their hearts' content in their own conventicles :" if it is thus he ,writes, of what value, may I ask, does he consider the future welfare of these peo ple ? If it is thus, with so much revelry and satisfaction to himself, he can resign these infatu ated people to their heresies, it is evident he mistakes wherein the general scheme and spirit of Christianity consists. I should like to know the opinion of such a one regarding the Chris tians, to whom a traveller thus alludes :—" Being informed there were several Christian inhabi tants in this place, we went to visit their Church, which we found so poor and pitiful a structure, that here Christianity seemed to be brought.into its humblest state, and Christ to be laid again in a manger. It was only a room of about four or five yards square, walled with dirt, having nothing but the uneven ground for its pavement and for its ceiling only some rude traves laid athwart it, and covered with bushes to keep out the weather. On the east side was, an altar, built of the same mat erials with the wall; only it was paved at top with pot-sherds and slates, to give it the face of a table. In the mid dle of": the altar stood a small, cross, composed of two laths, nailed together itr t h e m iddl e ; On each side . of which ensign were fastened to the wall two or three old prints, representing our blessed Lord and the blessed Virgin, kc., the venerable presents of some itinerant friars that had passed this way. On the south side was a piece of plank, supported by a post, which we understood was the reading-desk, just by which was a little hole commodiously broke through the wall to give light to the reader." There must have been some powerful feelings amongst these few ChriStians l Hying surrounded by infidel neighbours, who could thus withstand adversity, without ever being infected with Pa ganism. There must have been a strong spirit amongst them, thus to foster and maintain their persecuted faith. It seems neither the sword nor gold, example or persuasion, had ever ex tinguished the holy Faith they had embraced.— " A very mean habitation was this for the GOD of of Heaven, but yet field in great esteem and re verence by the poor people, who not only come with all devotion hither themselves, but also de posit here whatever is most valuable to them, in order to derive upon it a blessing :"—Are these enthusiasts and hypocrites ? Dr. Johnson defines an enthusiast to be one CC who vainly imagines a private revelation—one who has a vain confidence of intercourse with God :" and it is in this sense applied to the Methodists. He then quotes Locke,—" Let an enthusiast be principled that he or his teacher is inspired and actuated by an immediate communica tion of the Divine Spirit, and you in vain bring the evidence of clear reason against his doc. trine :" Influence he defines " power of celestial aspects operating upon terrestrial bodies and af fairs :" Spirit he defines "an immaterial sub stance—an intellectual being. He then quotes Locke again,—" Spirit is a substance wherein thinking, knowing, doubting, and a power of moving, do subsist." I find no definition of a Divine Spirit mentioned above by Locke : Now it is very clear a question arises on these defini tions :—Are they, or are they not, intended to exclude the existence or belief of the opera tion of Divine influences, that is to say, the Holy Spirit ? As to an individual having any extraordinary revelation of the will of GOD, the falsity and absurdity of the supposition is ap parent, or the Scripture was left incomplete for its intended purposes ; but it is not left so ; as to an intercourse with GOD, it can only mean what was first defined. But I apprehend enthusiasm, as applied to religion, is a term frequently used in a vague, inconsiderate manner. Enthusiasm, par takes, if it is not altogether such in this respect, of the nature of delirium or lunacy, when the victim of it mistakes the ideal offspring of ima gination for reality, that is, as if it were a some thing corporeally i❑ existence ; he ceases to dis tinguish between the object offered by the mind and the effect of it on the mind. That which is presented in a dream is quite different from that which the inventive faculty of imagination presents ; the eye may be said not to lose its natural action and power in either case, although the mind is primarily indebted to the intermediate agency of the eye, for the faculty of indulging flights of fancy. In a dream, reason is dormant ; and for the time, until we awake, we feel as if the representation were a reality; and we do not divest ourselves of this sensation until we do awake. In the instance of invention, we know the representation presented to our mind is a fiction ; but we cannot distinguish this whilst dreaming. A dream never happens to a man awake ; a vision might ; a vision may happen to a man either asleep or awake ; at least it is said so, if the New Testament is correctly translat ed, for in it we find instances of both. In the dream and representation by imagination, the eye at the time is not actually of use ; it is the force of memory that yields the representation ; this faculty then presents it to another which discerns it. It appears we dream generally something' connected with us in some way or other ; we, in general, appear agents in it ; whether it is pro duced from attentive reading, or conversation, or occurrence witnessed, it is seldom, if ever, a dream is unconnected with any thing which has occurred in some shape or other. Men have been known to dream that they were spirits ; and appeared to themselves to be composed like a cloud, while their mortal body had been de ceased some time ; there are several instances of this ; but it must have been connected with fre quent meditation of some kind, or a recent transac tion ; here there could be no mistake ; it was a dream, not a vision, as they found when they sub sequently awoke. in enthusiasm, the mind has so long dwelt upon a desired object, however irrationally the longing may have been indulged, until it insensibly falls into the state we call En thusiastic ; and in the end, is so absorbed in the longing, that it cannot divest itself of having en joyed that object, whatever it may be, a sup posed revelation or anything else. Reason is ex tinguished by vehement desire, and thus the de lusion in enthusiasm takes place. And this is the case of an enthusiast as to religion. John son, says " a dream is natural ; a vision mira culous ; but they are confounded." They are confounded frequently and in various ways ; since a vision implies a communication by an 'agent ; a communication, or action, which does not depend upon ourselves in taking place. A dream does, and is an ideal representation ; and although angels are said to have appeared in dreams, I believe the proper translation would be in visions. It is of no consequence in what shape an angel appeared ; the appearance ren dered it a vision, and . the warning an agent. For if a dream is natural, , it is evidently dependent ; but a vision being miraculous, or contrary to the ordinary course of nature, it is independent in a peculiar manner, because no terrestrial antece dent is required to produce its appearance ; it is in no ways dependent upon the mind of the in dividual. But then in a dream it is just the con trary, as I have shewn. So that, considering the subject altogether, I apprehend Dr. Johnson's definition of enthusiasm regarding religion is correct, when explained in the sense I have now taken it ; that is, it is a deception induced upon the mind by anxious and excessive thinking, and an extraordinary desire the result of it ; so that the, object. of that desire becoming deeper and deeper impressed upon the mind, the mind becomes weakened, and is tricked' ont of its ordinary faculties : and if it is any thing relative to a desired course of Providence, it firmly be lieves such has taken place : and this is sometimes supposed mentally, and sometimes visibly reveal ed to it. Such, I believe, is wherein consists enthusiasm ; and if it is asserted the Methodists " vainly imagine they have private revelations, or entertain a vain confidence-of intercourse with . Gon," the assertion is untrue and unwarranted. If a belief in Divine Influences be enthusiasm, then the Methodists are enthusiasts, and glori ously such. To act under such influences, to this they do aspire ; but as to private revelations or visions, as generally understood by the terms, to these they do not pretend. If a confidence in the belief of Divine Influences be enthusiasm, a Taylor, Porteus, Sherlock, Blair, Hall, Tillott son, &c. &c. have enjoyed a full share of such imbecility and presumptuous folly. As the Church, so do the Methodists implore the assis tance of the Holy Spirit; and in the prayers or the Established Church such request generally prevails. It is this Spirit alone the Methodists seek; and I trust it will not be said this Spirit is not to be obtained, is not to be discerned: the efficacy of prayer will not be disputed, or the interposition of Providence in the affairs of this world, by awy member of the Established Church. I confess I am enthusiastic enough to believe any true disciple of Christ's may obtain and feel the impulse of this Spirit. lf, there fore, I have rightly defined enthusiasm ; and since I have accurately stated to what influences the Methodists aspire, I shew it to be defama tion unjustifiable to rear the accusation of enthu siasm on the perversions of individuals, and for their follies to brand a large body of people as enthusiasts and heretics. But enthusiasm is not the only charge unhesitatingly made against the Methodists; for, in the succeeding breath, they are accused of hypocrisy. I t seems to me almost needless to observe how iniquitous this charge is, when applied, without reserve, to a whole class of people, especially against the Society to which I am alluding. A hypocrite is a dis sembleOn morality and religion, and surely it is remarkable, if among a Society so large as the Wesleyan has been, if in it some of the acknow- ledged learned and pious men did not discover the blasphemy and heresy they regularly cow mated and supported every day of their lives• But the fact is, jealousy and envy, and not any charitable motive, have urged these accusa tions. Whether the genuine Methodist is a se ceder from the Established Church, I much doubt : and, whether the breach which has beet' made and widened by innovating successors ill the Society is consistent with the doctrines of the Cross, that the brethren of the Church of Christ are to dwell in unity, I will not detain you to observe; Neither will I now discuss the point/ whether, in all probability, the Church has deriv ed a proportion of its strength from the establish - ' ment of different sects : whether they have bee¢ instrumental in calling into action abilities which otherwise would have been lost, never required, and therefore never exerted. Whether it may not have been ordained that the contest which is being carried onwards, should at this time take place, that hereafter a perfect kingdom may b e esti' Wished. Omitting these and many other consl' derations, I will ask, if " the gates of hell are, never to prevail" against one particular set o f selected doctrines, why this violence and bitter hatred of such men as ./Equus, against the sec' tarians, or those who will not hold the same doc• trines as he entertains, especially, if, as insinuated; these people have been let loose from th e nce • Perhaps it may, in the end, prove the wisest plan for him to divest himself of his confident infalli. bility, and take the advice of the lawyer; a And now I say unto you, refrain from these men, and let them alone : for if this counsel or this work, be of men, it will come to nought : but if it be 01 God, ye cannot overthrow it ; lest haply ye b e found even to fight against God. And to hill ) they agreed, and when they they had called the Apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, an d let them go." JUSTUS• *.• The postcript in reply to iEquus's last Letter shall ar pear the first opportunity.
