THE LONDON JOUKNALS. larrit'ikieTS , ?140M TIM- HA Iby MOTtNr.ktG PAlintS, April 30, 1822. DAtiTCN Ciffitosici.v:.] Lord • tondonierry. submitted last nig-fit toile mse Resolutions ftrunded •on. the Report of the Altriaultural Committee, and.Mr.RicardoCounter- Riesokstions on the principles adiranccd o in his late Pamphlet,. and Friday next was fixed'for the dis cussion. Lord Londonderry did not, however ) coml. - me: himself to-measures connected with the ,Agricultural Report. Ile announced various re 01'MS and innovations in'our financial and mo-. itory system,- the most important of which were, ISt, A plan far reducing the present burden of the :Pension List, by distributing the pensions over a mninber of years, and offering a corresponding fixed-annuity to monied men who would advance the sum now required, beyond-the average of the whole period,. with- a view to benefit after-wards from the decrease ;-• t.2,dly, An extension of the peiittd for allowing, Country Banks to issue small notes to 1833,- the termination of the Bank of England Charter; and 3d, Liberty to Country Banks, 65 miles or more distant from London,. to adopt the principle of the Scots Banks, with 9espect to partnerships, that is,- to be without limitation with respect to number of partners ;- in . consideration of which, the Bank of England Charter to be extended - for ten years beyond 1833 in London and its vicinity.—The plan for equalizing the burdens over forty-five years wilt be productive of good as far as it goes.- No one can. doubt the advantage of a di minution- of taxation at the present moment ;- and if we remain at peace (and we have the as surance from Ministers of perpetual peace, as the age of wars and conquests is gone by,), we may Mope that the industry of the Country, by adding. to its resources,. will-render even an eqoal amount of taxation comparatively light.—With respect to. the proposition for continuing. the issue of Country Bank Notes, it has also-our unqualified approbation. It is only during suspensions of cash payments that any danger can be appre hended from a paper circulation.- The precious metabt-are costly commodities,- and when. they. are employed as the circulating medium of a country, a great part of its property is thereby rendered unproductive.- Paper is not only a cheap medium, but it is more convenient in many respects than gold or silver. N - 0•101 /r ItERA /, b.l The South of Ireland at length assumes an ap pearance of tranquillity. There are few narra tives•of outrages in the Irish Papers, and even these are not of the desperate and atrocious kind that has hitherto prevailed - - But the distress becomes equally shocking. From the accounts in the Journals the poor are in a state of starva tion. We know not whether it is from the ho manity of the persons of property, or the greater pressure of distress there,. that in the county of Clare the suft:erings of the poor have be.. oome most prominent. Liberal. coutribu.tions are made there for the relief of the poor by the Gentlemen of property in the county — and facts are stated, under the guarantee of Resolutions come to by numerous meetings -of the Magistracy and Gentry, at which- the heart shudders. A single example is sufficient. In one district of the county of Clare, of which the population is about sixteen thousand, it has appeared, upon special investigation, that there were, about a month since, three thousand per sons, who had neither food nor the means of pro curing. it ; and the report of the investigators ,added,that. in one month more the number of the .destitute would probably be five thousand. This is-a frightful fact put upon record. It. appears that the Government, both in this Country and in Ireland, has held out hopes of relief, but it does not appear that any thing has yet been done. [Tilt: Times.] Lisbon Papers to the 21st inst. were received yesterday. The affairs of brazil have occasioned considerable discussion in the Codes.- In the Sitting. of the 15th, a number of official docu ments relative to the Revolution at Rio Janeiro were read. In the course of the debate which followed, one of the Brazilian Deputies (11obeiro de Andrade) expressed himself with considerable Warmth, in reply to some-observations which had fallen from another member of the Cortes (Borges Carneiro). lie said the assertion was false, that the events which had occurred at Rio de .Janeiro were brought about by a faction at tached to the Court, by placemen, or public plunderers, who wished to continue to feed on' the vital's' of the nation. The opinion of three' whole provinces had been declared, thein haliitents• of which, especially those who had figured in the late transactions, possessed•as ho. nourable sentiments and as pure intentions as any of the members of that Assembly. As the speaker was proceeding with this kind of vindication, he Was loudly called to order by the Deputies on all sides, and marks of disapprobation were heard in the galleries. Next day Andrade addressed a letter to the Editor of the !Maria do Governo, in -- which he states that he had been called to order by' 44 a domineering party in the Cortes," and trio he had been grossly insulted, and the respect diiesto his person and the province he represents, violated , by the persons in the galleries. Ile there 'fore declares that he no longer considers himself a Deputy, since he cannot freely execute the duties belonging to that character. In the sitting of the 18th, letters addressed to the President by four South American deputies were read. These deputies concurred with Andrade, iw declaring that they would not again take anypat in the deliberations - of the Cortes until the public mind should be tranquil lized respecting the affairs of Brazil. After some derbatf„. an• answer was ordered' to be given to the Brazilian deputies, stating that there was no just foundation for the reasons they assigned for ab senting themselves-, and that their attendance could not he dispensed. with, as only a physical impossibility could excuse a member of the Cur. tes from executing the important mission intrusted to•him, [MORNING POST.] It is with much• satisfaction we find that the recognition of the gpanish Colonies by Great (a efettitte whfcit ttu ttarE so long and! earnestly recommended) now prorthies to be fully adopted ; and theugh it NS as out wish to have taken the lead, even of the Unita!' States, in , this act of justice and necessity f yet are we glad' to find that we are about so speedily to follow their example. It is already known, that a Meeting of the Merchants and Ship: owners of London has'been held for the purpose of presenting a Memorial to Government on the expediency of admitting - the vessels of Co- Joinbia, Buenos Ayres, and the other Independent States of South America, to enter la our ports. — We have now^ the pleasure of laying before our Readers (hi our last page) a copy of the Memn. rial itself, signed by many of the most eminent mercantile houses in Great Britain, and.coase= quently in the world, and also to announce that Government have wisely acceded to the prayer of the Memorial. We trust Oita what has been done somewhat tardily will now be done with liberality, and that the intercourse with South America will be fettered with as few restrictions as possible. [BRITISH PRESS . .] We apprised our readers some days since tha a Memorial had been presented to the Privy Council by several Merchants of the highest re spectability in the City of Louden, urging the expediency of admitting ships belonging to the Republics of Columbia, Buenos Ayres, Chili, and the other Independent Governments in South America, to entry in our ports. The Memorial was prepared at a meeting of Merchants, which was convened - expressly for this purpose. The representation contained in this Memorial, we re joice to say, has been successful , . The Lords of the Privy Council have caused an intimation to be made to the several mercantile Houses which had signed the Memorial, that they " have decided favourably on the application for admitting to entry in this country the ships of the Indepen dent Governments established in the Spanish part of South America, conformable to the peti tion presented to their Lordships on the 23d inst." To the commercial' concerns of the country this measure of the Privy Council promises the most se rious advantages. It evinces a disposition on the part of our Government to encourage and promote the trade of this empire inn portion of the world where British enterprise and British ingenuity may most reasonably hope to be highly appre ciated and nobly rewarded: We feel the sound policy and discretion of the measure at this mo ment perhaps more keenly, from the apprehen sions which we, in common with many others-, begin to entertain, that we were about to he ex cluded from the markets of South America in consequence of the measures which are now in the act of being pursued by the Northern Union. We feared that our Government might hesitate, without the concurrence of Spain, to recognise in any way the independent exist ence of the South American Republics, and that the United States raising upon this backwardness of ether powers a peculiar claim of merit with the infant Governments, might he thereby enabled to subject others to serious disabilities in the South American markets. It must, indeed, be felt that the measures of the United States have left no dis cretion to the other Powers upon this point. The Southern Republics must of necessity be uni versally recognised, and it would ill become the Government of the most commercial nation in the world to be the last in establishing com mercial relations with countries so highly en dowed by nature and qualified by circum stances to promote our interests, and in the pro gress of whose independence the inhabitants of G rent Britain evinced an early and generous con. cern. The present is evidently but a prepara tory step towards the more formal recognition of South American independence. To effect even this preliminary step our Government must ac knowledge the several flags of the respective States, must recognise the official seals that au thenticate ships papers, and must receive Consuls in our ports accredited from the several States, as the customary guardians of their mercantile rights. A letter from Leghorn of the Bth instan says, that after the death of Ali Pacha, Chours • chid, his ignoble conqueror, addressed the fol lowing Proclamation to the Greeks : " Peace and pardon on the following conditions 2—You shall lay down your arms ; you shall pay to the Sultan all the awns, dues, and tributes, which you paid to Ali Pacha ; you shall lay aside the colours reserved for Mussulmen, which you pro fane, and you shall clothe yourselves only in habits made of goats' hair ; you shall cover your heads only with a cap of buflalo skin. " in the humble Petition, which you shall address to our Sublime Porte, your names shall be always preceded by the titles of Niopeks, Kaffir, Keavour, ( Dogs, Cafre, Infidel,) signs of your unworthiness, and of your servitude as vile Christians, &c. &c. " You shall deliver into the hands of our Elictar (Sword bearer) the 30th of your children, both male and female, to be educated in the principles of the religion of our Great Prophet, • Mahomet. You and yours shall henceforth ride nothing but asses:" Such proposals have been received by the Epi rotes as they merited. All have sworn on the Cross rather to die than to deliver up their chil dren to apostacy, and submit to a disgrace to which even Ali never thought of condemning them. Chourscltid has by this action restored the memory of Ali Pacha to honour. The General Assembty of the Greeks lately met at Corinth. In a solemn Sitting it decreed to send four Ambassadors to. the principal Euro pean Powers, Austria, Russia, England, and France. Among the various Civil and Military Laws published by this Assembly, we remark that which finally fixes that the Greek flag is to be black, red, and white horizontally ; bearing on one side the figure of Minerva, and on the other a Phoenix, as an emblem of the resurrection of the Greek Nation, and of its new existence. We observe also, in the date of these several Acts, the year 18:Y.2 denominated " the first year of the Emancipation and Independence of the Greeks." A Decree of the same fixes this year, 18'2'2, as " the first of the new !Era of Greece." Madame CHRISTOPHE, ci-derant Empress of Hayti, is about to take up her residence at Blackheath. It is generally understood. that she has saved about 1,5001. per annum, from the wreck of her deceased husband's. fortune. rot THE SUN% RUSSIA AND TURKEY: ED/TOLt—ln a series of letters. Aloft I addressed to yoti, t6(sllte months since, *ion the subject of thus Holy Alliance, I advanced the Opinion that a rupture between , . Russia and Turkey was inevitable. This opinion, the correct., ness of which seems ntht , about to be fully verified, was folinded upetti" the anibitioits views of the Court of St. Petersbtirghl views which have been manifested whenever any opportunity of so doing has occurred. Not satisfied with its preponderance as a military power, which its vast and hardy population must fully establish, Russia has ever aimed at an increase of its mari time importance. To create a Navy was one of the first, and of the principal objects, of Peter the Great. It was to accom plish this important purpose that be endeavoured to become master of the shores of the sea, of Azor, and that he determined to wrest the provinces of Ingria, Carelia and Livonia, from his rival Charles XII. It was in furtherance of the same design that Catherine 11. took possession of the Crimea, and extended her domination along the Black Sea, from the mouth of the Don to that of. the Pruth : and it was the same system of policy that induced Alexander to strip the infatuated Gustavus IV. of the valuable province of Finland. To this ..important accession on the shores of the Baltic, the arrange• "went concluded at the Congress of Vienna and the Treaty of Paris, have since added a portion of the Northern Court of Po land. Many centuries nzay, indeed, elapse, ere the Russian navy can assume an aspect sufficiently formidable to alarm this country. But he is a shallow politician indeed, who, cir k cumscribing his glance to the present, does not seek to antici pate future and possible events. Of all political errors, the most fatal is that of despising a rival, because he is not now able to injure; and nothing. can possibly be of more impor tance than to crush sich a disposition in the bud ; or, rather to prevent, by, timely interference, the possibility of such an oc-. currence. History affords no example of an increase of political impor tance more rapid, and to all appearance more permanent, than that of the empire of the Czars. Scarcely more than a century ago, and Muscovy was hardly considered as an European Power : and little did Peter the Great foresee, whilst manffilly contend.. ing with adverse fortune in the plains of tngria, and on the banks of the i Pruth, that within one hundred years one of his descendants should dictate laws to Twkey, and enter Paris, at the head of a victorious army. Yet such an occurrence have we witnessed in our days. Within the above comparatively '‘short period, Russia has extended its domination from the shores of the Baltic to those of the Black Sea, and from the most eastern boundaries of Europe to the Banks of the Vis tula. If we cast our eyes upon the vast tract of countries that form this empire, both in Europe and in Asia, we shall be ,amazed atits - extent, extent, an extent, indeed, which exceeds that of the Roman domination, in the zenith of its power. If some of its provinces are but thinly inhabited, as a nation, it still pos sesses an immense population, which being placed wholly at the disposal of one will, acquires from this very circumstance a considerable additional force. To these advantages, which are in themselves of no trifling importance, we must add that of its peculiarly favourable geographical situation, which, se curing it from any attack along the whole range of its eastern, northern, and southern frontiets, enables it to press on the west with the whole weight of its power ; an advantage which is too often wholly overlooked, but which more than compensates for any intrinsic deficiency. Independently of the force it thus derives from its peculiar situation, in an offensive point of view, it possesses, moreover, every possible defensive advan tage. The proof of this assertion is- exemplified by two very striking historical facts. History recorchf only two serious attacks directed against the Russian empire. Each of those attacks was made by Chiefs hitherto invincible, and whose power seemed irresistible. In each of them, the ruin of Russia appeared, therefore, inevitable. Yet, in both of these in stances, not only has she escaped unhurt, but the failure of her enemies has proved such,' that it has eventually occasioned the destruction of their power ! There are persons who con ',rider that the want of money will ever neutralize these evident advantages of Russia ; but let such persons recollect that Buonaparte has taught conquerors how to make the vanquished defray the expenses of the war, which has stripped them of their independence. If the above views of the immense and preponderating power of Russia be correct, we must look forward with censiderabk in terest to the probable issue of a war between this power and Turkey, and to the effect such an issue may have upon the political system of Europe. The present distracted state of the Ottoman Empire, and the revolt of the Greeks, are particu larly favourable to the ambitious views of Russia. Hence, re gardless of the avowed principles of the Holy Alliance, she is warmly espousing the cause of rebellious subjects. Every li beral mind must abhor the Turkish domination, which has every where proved pernicious to society. Wherever its bane ful influence has extended, the energies of the human mind have been destroyed; the arts: and the sciences, freedom and happiness, have withered and died. In the pride of his ig norance, the Nlussulman looks down with contempt upon the rest of mankind. Bigotted to the moral and religious code contained in his Koran, he is essentially inimical to learning, to liberty, and to civilization. Ilis language, his manners, his ideas, his dress, all mark him as an intruder in the land which his barbarity and intolerance have ruined and depopu lated. The emancipation of the descendants, even though de generate, of the Aristides, the Phocions, the Themistocles, must be desired by every friend' of humanity, although the bar. barities they have committed at Tripolizza prove them to be little less ferocious than their Islusaulman oppressors. But in great political questions, the welfare of one nation must be well weighed with the interest of the whole European community. The question is not how far the Greeks may be benefited by the active interference of Russia, but how far such an interference may affect the peace of Europe, and the balance of power, which it has been the principal object of the Congress of Vienna and the peace of Paris to re-establish. Unless this political equi_ librium be preserved, peace cannot be considered as resting upon any thing like a solid foundation. In the contest which is about to commence between Russia and Turkey, the eventual success can scarcely be considered a doubtful. Although fanaticism will, most probably, add vigour to the ferocious courage of the Ottomans, the steadiness, and the superior tactics., of their opponents, must necessarily prove, in the end, successful, and the probabilities are, therefore, that ere long the Russian Eagle will soar triumphant over the domes of the Seraglio. But can Austria, can Prussia, can England, or indeed can any of the powers of Europe permit the annex. ation not only of Turkey, but even of any considerable portion of it, to the Russian Empire ? It is probable that the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh, well aware of the impracticability of such a • measure, will realize the favourite plan of Catharine 11. and make the Grand Duke Constantine the founder of a new Byzan tine dynasty. But however disinterested we may suppose the Emperor Alexander, we can vcareely imagine that he will not seek, in the acquisition of some of the Turkish provinces;to in- aernnify himself for the exiknces of the war. Such a steP, which ' cannot be blamed, in itself, together with the placing of his bro_ ther upon the throne of Constantinople, must considerably in crease his - political power, not only by an accession of territory, but also by the. influence which the proximity of the capital of ;,the new empiri to his own dominions will enable him to exec_ else over the decisions of the Byzantine Cabinet. This being the probable resrilt of the interference of. Russia alone in the cause of the Greeks, is it not incumbent upon those Sove reigns, whose interest it is that neither the military, nor the naval power of this empire should be materially' augmented, now boldly to avow that they are determined to preserve the balance of power, now existing, undisturbed, and that, if the Turks are to be expelled from the shores of Europe, they are resolved that the emancipation of the Greeks shall be the work of all, and not rendered the means of aggrandizementto any one particular Monarch. The expulsion of the Turks must prove, indeed, an event of considerable political importance, and one pregnant with the principles of future contention and warfare. Even though the policy of every Cabinet in Europe should countenance this measure, we cannot expect that the same unanimity will prevail as to any ulterior arrangement.—Many are the jarring interests which must be then brought into contact, and it is not at all improbable that the sword would be drawn ultimately to decide the question. Every one who de. precates the renewal of hostilities, and shudders at the bare idea of any further effusion of human blood, must feel a de , sire that the Greeks had been left to fight their own battles against their oppressors Cor hope that the wisdom of the cabin. etsof Europe will. devise some effectual, means of accomplishing the emancipation of the oppressed, without endangering the ,peace of the European community. Midhurst, April 22. A. P. LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, APRIL 29. DWERRIHOUSE AND CARTER V. HENRY AND SMART. Mr. BEAStES moved his Honour the Vice-Chancellor at the sitting of, the Court for a special Injunction, under the follow ing circumstances : It appears that the plaintiffs, Messrs. Dwerrihouse and Car ter, are watchmakers, and that they originally carried on busi ness in Berkeley-square, from which place they removed to Davies-street, on the pulling down of the house in which they resided. Mr. Smart, one of the defendants, who had been a clerk to Dwerrihouse and Carter, having been discharged by them, entered into partnership with a Mr. Henry, and set up business as watchmakers in another house, No. 4, in the same square. They painted over their door the words " Dwerri house and Carter" in very large letters, with the word "From" prefixed in very small letters, in a flourish. By this deception, and by Mt: Smart going, round among the customers of the ;old firm, as he had been accustomed to do when he was their clerk, and by his passing himself off on many occasions as one of the partners of Dwerrihouse and Carter, many of the cus r,tomers-have been seduced and led away from the old fitrii. His Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR granted an Injunc tion to restrain the defendants, Henry and. Smart, from solicit ing or executing business as Dwerrihouse and Carter, and from keeping up the names of Dwerrihouse and Carter, or putting up any other names calculated to induce the public to believe that the defendants' shop belonged to, or was connected with, •the house of Dwerrihouse and Carter. COURT' OF KING'S BENCH, APRIL 29.. DREW V. DRING. In this case, which was-an action by &father for the seduction of his daughter, tried at Winchester, before Mr. Justice Park, Mr. G. Si: ILLIAMS obtained a rule to show cause why the ver diet for the plaintiff should not be set aside, on the ground that it was improbable that the circumstance which was the founda tion of the action ever in reality took place.

It would be well if our other Public Institutions were placed upon•the same footing as the British Museum. Yesterday was held the adjourned meeting of parochial officers, in consequence of Mr. MAIN , NV A aiN n's default. The Chairman reported:, that an answer from the Magistrates, through. the Clerk of the Peace, had been received, which concisely stated " that the balance due from George Boulton Mainwaring, Esq., the late Treasurer of the county, had been stated for the Court a to amount to the som of 17,5051.85.c21d., and that the Justices had in consequence placed the se curities of the late County Treasurer in the hands of an attorney, with directions to take such measures as might make the same available with all pos sible despatch. This at first was thought not sufficiently satisfactory % and a Committee for fur ther investigation proposed, but a communication having been made, that four of the most opulent parishes of the at the west end of the county, unconnected with the meeting, which contributed a fourth of the rates, had determined to submit the matter to Parliament, this meeting thought 'it unnecessary to pursue the proceedings further, trusting that securities would be adopted to pre vent further defalcations.—(Morning Paper.)
