THE LONDON JOURNALS. AINtaCTS FROM THE r) %MT WINING" PAI'EItS, September 10, 1822. LEIRITISTI ettEsm.] The modification of the Ministry, consequent upon the death of the- Marquis of Londonderry, is uot yet finally settled. The general opinion yesterday was, that Mr. Canning will be per mitted to go his way to India ; that the Marquis of Hastings, on his return, will be appointed to the Vice-ROyalty of Ireland ; and that Marquis Wellesley will succeed to the office of Secretary sf State for Foreign Affairs. This arrangement will require six or seven months for completion ; tot ;Parliament is not expected to meet until February next, and in the mean time the Duke of Wellington will manage our continental in terests at Vienna and Verona ; and should Par lament meet before the return of the Marquis of Hastings, Mr. Peel, it is presumed, will be able to bear the brunt of the battle in the House of Commons for a time sufficient to prove his strength, or if it should not be found adequate, to - call in assistance. [MORNING HERALD.] Such is John Bull's avidity for foreign secu rities, that the expected Portuguese loan already bears a premium on the Royal Exchange of three to four per cent. It is said, however, that it is very uncertain whether the Portuguese Govern met will favour John Bull with a loan on any profit-getting terms. Portugal not being much in debt, the financiers of that country have the conscience to ask 1001. money for every 1001. bond to be created, and the interest they pro pose is only 5 per cent. per annum. These terms are so very different from what John was accus tomed to during the last reign, that he does not like to buckle to. He would much rather give only 501. in cash for every 1001. bond to be granted. The Portuguese Government, unfor tunately, only want about a million : but there are already names put down in the various Fo reign Stock Brokers' books to the amount of two millions. Time only will discover whether the Lisbon financiers will relax in their exorbitant expectations, and gratify John's wishes, by per mitting' him to add another name to his Stock List of Foreign Securities. [NEW TIMES.] The present vigour and efficiency of Opposi tion would be very little if it were not for their connection with a large party out of doors.— The shades of modern Whiggism and Radicalism run so imperceptibly into each other, that, for all purposes of hostility against our national institutions, they may be considered as forming one-body. Nor is this all. There are unfor tunately in the House of Commons, as there are in most public assemblies, many individuals highly respectable in character, and perfectly pure in intentions, but who know little of human nature, and less of the practical principles of Go vernment. These Gentlemen are naturally swayed in the first instance by popular clamour; they are eager to meet it half way, and to buy off the whole of its demands, without examination, by the concession of a large part. On such men the invectives and clamours of the Reformers pro duce considerable effect ; and the fear of incur ring imputations of bigotry and servility more than half disposes them to be led away by the doctrines of a spurious liberalism. Yet their real integrity and good sense makes them listen at tentively to a great orator maintaining the arse of the Constitution, provided he does so with poWerful and convincing argument. Dry, cold, Lifeless matter of fact speeches will not satisfy such hearers : their understandings must be en lightened, their judgment won over, and even their passions captivated. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] We fear there is but too much reason for be lieving that the Greeks have been materially injured by both English and Austrian agents, but particularly the former. In every country there are men who, for the sake of gain, set jus tice and morality at defiance, and we of course have our share of characters of this description. 14 there were Britons , who did not formerly scruple to engage in the Slave Trade (nay who do not now scruple to embark capital in it); we cannot be surprised that persons unworthy of the name, at present afford assistance, and in various ways .to the Turks. We fear it is but too true that agents for promoting divi sions among the Greeks, and spies on their operations, have been sent in abundance among them from the places under our rule.—Our readers will see in , the account of the trial' at Poitiers, that - the Procureur-General did all' but directly accuse Messieurs La Fa) , ette, Voyer d'Argenson, Lafitt/r, Benjamin Constant, Foy, Manuel, of being engaged in the plot. After enu merating the various occasions' on which their names had been brought forward, he dwelt on the intimacy between them and Berton. "' If the Throne had beenoverturned, in whose hands, great God, would the power have fallen i" It could not have fallen into worse hands, surely, than those who now have it. 44 Moral proofs abound in the cause, but the material proofs, the only ones on which an accusation can be established, or a con demnatin founded, these proofsare wanting—And why ? It is not because they are innocent, but because they conceal themselves behind their agents, that. they envelop themselves in mystery, that they correspond verD'ally ; they put for Ward agents, they feed them with chimerical hopes, and then endeavour to dishonour them."—The words guilty and innocent were . never, perhaps, more misapplied than in this. case. It is to be hoped that Italy will not always be enthralled to Austria, nor France to a family without hold of the nationalfeeling,-and hostile to the national interests. It certainly would not grieve us to hear that the Bourbons had swelled the list of ejected Dynasties,: [Tin TIMES.] As the meeting of the Congress draws nigh, people are disposed to look with more attention than at other seasons for such proofs or indica tions as may offer themselves, of the feelings entertained by the great military Governments of Europe, on questions of general interest. It has been suspected that the deliberations of the Congress about to meet would embrace a wider field than that of the disputes between Greek and Turk and Russian. The constitutions ac quired, or rather begun, by Spain and Portugal, are represented to have infused much grave alarm into the minds of those Sovereigns and Ministers who dread the contagious influence of liberty upon their own enslaved dominions. It is even imag ined , but probably without justice, that measures for the forcible repression of whatever power has been wrenched from Ferdinand and the Inquisition, are to be adopted by the mem bers of the holy Alliance. If so, they will fail in putting down the Spaniards, and they will succeed in extending to other nations, that blessing which is the object of Imperial and Royal animosity. Portugal, too, stands in the same peril, or, more correctly speaking, enjoys the same security with Spain; and, we doubt not, that as an attack upon the rights of Por tugal must be meditated, if those of Spain are molested so it may be as well inferred from the language used towards the Por tuguese Constitution, as if it had been the Spanish Constitution itself, what sentiments are cherished with regard to the conflict, unhappily too obvious, between Ferdinand and his gallant people. The Austrian Observer, the half-official organ of the Court of Vienna, makes, in its num ber of the 27th ult., Portugal the formal subject of a diatribe intended against freedom—we might have said against mankind at large. That king dom though in profound tranquillity is said to have no taste of real happiness, but to experience only such repose as is the fruit of unconditional sub mission to a fate voluntarily brought upon them selves by the people. Can, then, a more exact definition be furnished, of the sort of tranquillity prevailing under a despotic Government, than fruit of the unconstitutional submission of its subjects to a fate involuntarily brought upon them ? The art of writing is dangerous to certain modes of dominion,even when exercised by their own agents. Other topics of reproach are se lected against the Portuguese, but with no greater semblance of discretion. The loss of Brazil is most falsely attributed to the revolution —as some days ago, in another impression from the same mint, the loss of the Spanish colonies was charged against the constitutional Spaniards ; and both Governments are condemned to certain ruin, from the same causes, and through the same means, viz., the disproportion between the o'yal power, and that of the other branches of ie constitution. [MORNING POST.] We are much concerned to find by accounts from Ireland, that owing to the great and general distress i❑ the Western parts of that island, the Fishermen along the coast of Galway are unable this season to purchase Herring Nets as usual, and that much anxiety is felt, lest from this cause they may lose the proper opportunity for sup plying themselves, and of course a considera ble portion of the rest of the population, with Fish for their subsistence. We do not notice the circumstance immediately with the view of suggesting any particular mode of averting the apprehended evil. In the present period of solicitous and active sym pathy for the sufferings of the unhappy people of the sister country, it is quite enough that attention should be merely pointed to the sub ject. The discriminating as well as generous benevolence of those who have undertaken the arduous task of administering relief to the dis tressed, will not, we are certain, allow so im portant a point to escape their observation, and to them we most willingly confide it. It may, however, be permitted us to seize a moment when the subject of Irish Fisheries is incidentally - before the public, to remark how vast a mine of wealth in that branch of trade is not only un wrought hi Ireland, but almost totally neglected. Mr. Grant, during his Chief Secretaryship, was in truth the first person connected with the Ad ministration of Irish Affairs who actually did any thing to foster a branch of Irish in dustry, which, whether we regard that coun try or this country. or the Empire at large, is ;of the greatest moment. The great desideratum respecting the Irish Fisheries is the application of ordinary commercial means to turn the bounty of nature to account. As they are carried on at present, for instance, on the very coast of Galway already mentioned, and the rest of the Western Coast of Ireland, generally speaking, they waste the labour of those en gaged, and make no adequate return what ever. Fishing is there carried on by the inhabi tants or the coast in as rude a manner as in the Islands of the Pacific Ocean. Numbers of the people follow it solely to obtain their daily sus tenance, without thinking at the utmost of more than rounding the supply for the year. Others un doubtedly carry the trade farther, and extend their views to the supply of the adjacent inland districts, but this is the limit of their commercial 'horizon. There is, therefore, properly speak ing, no fishing trade carried on by the popula tion of the western coast of the island, "although they are mostly fishermen, and alibi; ugh they have the great Atlantic Ocean at their doors abounding with every species of fish. Hence the vast multitudes who inhabit that extensive shore, and few, if any districts, even of Ireland, are so thickly peopled, are reduced to nearly a similarly vile and precarious subsistence as those in the interior, whose existence depends sole' on the hazards of a potato crop ; nor is it impro bable but in certain parts the combination of the two modes of subsistence may aggravate instead of lighten occasional distress. Tuesday, seven hair-dressers were fined 5 . 5. each, at the Glasgow Police Court, for shaving on Sunday. On Wednesday afternoon last, three large stacks of hay standing at the foot cf . Cannongate-street, Aln wick, and belongihg to his Grace the Duke of NORI'IITIM 'BERLAiiD, took fire, and notwithstanding the precaution had been taken to build a chimney or funnel through the stacks, they were so greatly heated and the combustion was so general and violent, that every effort to save them was. unavailing.— ~( Durham Chronicle.), CITY, MONDAY EVENII•iG: During Saturday and this day, the great abundance of money has produced a considerable effect on the value of the British funded debt. It would be much more for the welfare of the country, if its surplus capital could beemployed, so as to obtain living wages for the people. at the same time that it yielded a good interest to its possessors. The distress which exists among many classes of society, is certainly not diminished by the fa cility which the interest of the national debt affords for the em ployment of capital. This facility is undoubtedly as great a national evil as the interest of the debt itself, for through its means the man of capital can obtain an income proportionate to the value of other descriptions of property, without calling for the productive labour of any class of society. It is no doubt true that there cannot be a seller withouta buyer, and consequently it may be said that nobody can invest a sum of money in the Funds without sonic other person Withdrawing from thence an amount equal to that investment. There is, however, in England an unfunded debt quite equal to consume the sums occasionally withdrawn from the regular and fixed se curities, and the facility which the enormous amount of time bargains affords to the capitalist of employing his money in continuation, is in the highest degree prejudicial to the agricultural and legitimate commercial interests. By means of the National Debt, money commands an income without producing a solitary mess, even of pottage, to any indivi dual, but land, ships, and every other description of pro perty must employ the people, if any income at all can be produded from them. He who has made a fortune abroad, generally, now on his return to his native country, in place of purchasing land, building houses, ships, or acquiring an income from the labour of the people by the employment of ' his property or lending his money to be in that way employed, invests it in some national security or other, and takes his income Out of taxes, extorted from the labour and capital of the industrious, instead of acquiring it from labour, which his own capital would otherwise have rendered productive. Thus the ease with which an income can be obtained from, capital in the National Debt paralyses industry, encou rages idleness, and oppresses all the active classes. It is generally understood that the Bank of England cannot at present make Five per Cent. of their original capital, and consequently are unable any longer to pay out of their pro fits Ten per Cent. to the proprietors. It is therefore suspected that they must either reduce the rate of their interest, or that they must pay up a part of their capital, in order that they may be able to continue the present rate of interest on the remainder. The idea that at least a quarter of the Bank Stock will be re paid to the proprietors, adds confidence to the speculators for an advance in the value of the funded debt, and no reports of a disjointed Administration, no conviction of their imbecility and weakness, no effort of the Holy Alliance for continuing the present system, will probably prevent an advance. Though ruin hangs over the heads of the landed interest, though the shipping interest is hourly going into decay, and with it the best defence of the liberties of the Empire, though it is notorious that already the British Navy is so far degraded, that it cannot protect British Commerce from piracy and robbery, and tho Ugh commerce itself is depressed and unprofitable, though the inte res of the funded and unfunded debt has reached so enormous an amount, still the wantrof more profitable employment for ca pital will probably throw such a quantity of money into the mar ket, as must produce a further addition to the value of every de scription of European public securities. Consols for the October settlement have advanced to 81 during this day. They after wards fell to 811, occasioned by the reported indisposition of the King,and finally closed at 811 buyers. In the Foreign Funds also an immense quantity of business has been done, and the dealers, after the gates of the Royal Exchange are closed, find it neces sary to collect themselves in Cornhill to finish their transactions. An express from Paris brings the rentes on Saturday last at 94.25. a 941. Here Old Spanish Bonds have this day been sold at 67 for the end of the month. Powerful attempts were made last Saturday, and this day to advance the value of the New Russian Loan, and they have been successful to the extent of i one per cent. Still this is far from being a favourite security. The late acts of the magnanimous ALEXANDER, including I the restrictions and prohibitions which he has been pleased to put on every description of import commerce, are not calculated to give much confidence in the progressive prosperity or future security of his empire. The Chili Stock has improved in value, and there is a report that the Peru will also soon be registered amongst the borrowers of British capital. The prices of every description are as follows : French * Five per Cents. with Div. from 22d March, 94 50. Spanish * Five per Cents. of 1820 Dividend from Ist May, —67 for the end of the month. Ditto Five per Cent. Bonds of 1821, (sterling) Dividend from Ist May, 64. Russian * Six per Cents. Dividend from Ist July, 82. Ditto * Five per Cents. (metallic) with Dividend from Ist March, 81. Ditto New Five per Cent. (metallic) Dividend from Ist Sept. 86,i 1. Prussian Five per Cent. Bonds of 1818 (sterling) Dividend from Ist April, 901. Ditto of 1822 (sterling) Dividend from Ist July, 87. Austrian * Five per Cents. (metallic) Dividend from Ist Fe bruary, 80. Neapolitan * Five per Cent. Bonds, Dividend from Ist July, 77i Danish Five per Cent. Bonds (sterling) Dividend from Ist July, 88 Ditto * ditto Banco Marks, Dividend from Ist July, 861 Colombian Six per Cent. Bonds (sterling) Dividend from Ist May, 86i. Chilian Six per Cent. Bonds (sterling) Dividend from Ist April, 821 31 A. Marked * are subject to the rate of Exchange. There is a wide difference betwixt raising the value of the British Funds to an unnatural height, and lending surplus ca pital to foreign States. To place surplus capital into the Bri tish funds, and thereby to enhance their value, is neither more nor less than rendering that surplus capital inactive, but by lending it to needy foreign States, an interest is drawn for it out of foreign labour, and it also enables these States to in crease their production so much as to render their payment for those articles, which their wants require from England, both secure and regular; for whatever money is exported from Eng land, either under the name of subsidy or loan, English in. dustfy and art will soon draw back. During last week, in Liverpool, the public sales of plantation sugar went off rather heavily, and inferior and soft qualities did not maintain their value. The quantity sold was 600 casks and 600 bags from Bengal. Bright yellow, rather damp, brought 68. —middling white 70. to 72.—and good to fine 74. 3. to 75. 9. per cwt. ; for foreign there was no inquiry —lOO puncheons of De merara molasses brought 24. 6. to 28. 9.' according to quality. ' Rums were very dnll, but there was no alteration in their value. The coffee market was much the same as during the preceding weck, particularly as regarded the better sorts of plantation.— which being in demand sold readily, hut inferior quality was nearly unsaleable. The sales of cotton were very large, amount ing to 11,522 bags, and, contrary to exptCation all that was' offered went of freely and with great spirit, a number of dealers and spinners attending : after closing the sales there was more inquiry, and on the whole the market had a steady-appearance. Owing to the advance on tallow, palm oil had risen to 251. and `upwards of 600 tons had been sold. From Petersburgh letters have been received, dated on the 20th ult. by which the information has been communicated, that British speculators had purchased 6 0 00 casks of tallow at 98'to 100 rubles, and that the price then was 102 rubles. The exhange had been at 10 6-32, but had declined to 10 5-32. The supply of hemp and tallow from Russia will this season be very large. The former is this day worth 391: perhaps 10s. more. Tallow is exceedingly unsaleable at the same price. At Mark-lane there is this day an extremely short supply of every description of grain. During the week the arrivals of wheat amounted to only 5346 qrs., of barley'46l qrs. malt 3040 quarters, and of oats 9,630 quarters. Fine qualities of wheat sold' on rather better' terms than during the preceding week, chiefly with a view to maintain the value of flour during the short supply. Fine new barley has been sold at 325. a quarter to needy maltsters. This ought not, however, to be considered a fair value, for the first tolerable supply must reduce the price. Old barley finds-few buyers, and does not undergo the importation for the week ending the 31st slightest improvement. Oats are also very dull. The average prices for regulating August, were for wheat 38s: 9d. barley 19s. Bd., and oats 17s. 4d. per quarter.—( Morning: Chronicle.) 9 I LONDON SESSIONS. ---The London Quarter Ses sions began yesterday, at Guildhall, before the LOUD MAYon, Sheriff's, and Aldermen GLYI,?m, J.

It is impossible to describe the dis tressing scene which took place when the mother of the boy (a Acidow)'was made sensible•of her loss. FROM SATURDAY'S GAZETTE. DIVIDENDS. Sept. 30. T. and W.
