THE LONDON JOURNALS. •EXTRAC'SS FROM THE DULY MORNING PAPERS; • October 12, 1822. , [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The most contradictory reports are in circula tion with rpspect to the India❑ Governorship. The prevailing opinion, at present, is that Lord Melville will not go out to India. The gloom which the slaughter of so many brave Men in France, ,and the executions Which are still meditated, are calculated to diffuse over every well constituted mind, is to a certain ex - - tentsrelieved by the cheering prospect opened in Spain. The Conslitutionnel contains some in 7 teresting details of the brilliant and imposing festival on the AnniversarX of the Installation of the Cortes. If the national property continue to sell as it has done, there will be upwards of -16,000,000,000 reals to . pay, 5,500,000,000 of debt. -An honest Government will soon set all' to rights in Spain. We augur well of the'North, from the number of monks said to be seeking an asylum in France.---a(Mid.) [MORNING HERALD.] An Evening Paper of yesterday (said to be a Ministerial Paper) expresses its satisfaction in laying before its Readers an account of the Re venue for the last quarter, which exhibits a de ficiency, as compared with the, corresponding quarter of last year, of 804,5981. This sum, multiplied by four, amounts to 3,222,392/. for a year. Mr. Vansittart and the late Lord Lon donderry promised us a Sinking Fund of five millions for the year 1822, ending the sth of January, 1823. But if our said-to-be Evening Ministerial coternporary has every ensuing quar ter to express its high satisfaction, and it is to be grounded on similar results to this last quarter, the sum of three millions and a : quarter per an num will mako an awkward sort of,reduction from Mr. Vansittart's five millions surplus of Reventie beyond Exenditure. [BRITISH PRESS.] The decrease of 805,5981. in the quarter's re venue, compared with the produce of the cor responding quarter of last year, is the more dis eburaging, when it is considered that there was an increase in that quarter of 837,2641. compared with the corresiloning quarter of 1820. There is in the Customs, Stamps, Post-office, and Mis , cellaneous, a total increase of 198,2051:, but it is more than counterbalanced by . the falling off in the Excise, amounting to no less than 819,229/. This de6-ease in that great branch of revenue is ,attributed to the repeal of the duties on malt, salt, -and:leather, during the last Session of Parliament. The produce of these articles in the quarter ended 10th October, 1821, was 3,361,195/.; but a•Mi nisterial Paper of last evening states, that in the quarter just ended they have ,only produced 2221,978/. —making a difference of 1,139,2171. To. this it may be objected that the reduction of, the salt duty will not take place until the'lst of January ; but admitting that, in contemplation of that event, the dealers have limited their present stock, yet this will not satisfactorily ac count for so •great a decrease in the Excise for the 'quarter as 819,2291.—The reduction of a duty upon any article may be expected to produce - increased consumption ; but from the great falling off in the Excise, there is reason to apprehend that the consumption has not increased. Indeed, the decrease in the assessed taxes, amounting to 140,3041. in the quarter just ended, affors tolerably conclusive evidence -of reduced expenditure in alt 'the branches of domestic economy connected with the Excise. Independent of the effect of the reduction of taxes, it is totally impossible that the Revenue must not suffer from the prevalent distress of the country, the existence of' which no minion of 'Ministers, however blessed in his own circle with ease and affluence,-can pretend to deny. • [NEW TIMES.] THE QUATITEICS REVEN UE--Most gratifying is it to, learn, that notwithstanding the recent loud, and in some instances, no doubt, well-founded complaints of distress, the Revenue not only maintained its former extraordinary elevation, but has even produced in the last quarter, as compared with the corresponding quarter of 1 - 821, au increase of above half a million. When We'say the Revenue is iiicreased, we of course mean the existing taxes. Taxes that are taken off cannot be productive. Yet though this is so palpable a truism, there are some sapient gentry (and we should not be surprised to find the Edi tor of The Times among the number), who wilt argue that the taxes on leather, malt, salt, hus bandry horses, and tonnage, which have been taken off, or reduced to the amount of above 1,300,0001. ought still to prodtkce this same 1,300,0001.; and because this has not been ex.: actly the case, therefore we must pronounce the Rovenue to have fallen off! We shall leave this notable reasoning to its inventors, and proceed to' state the plain facts.—The quarter ending 10th October 1821 produced (including the above-mentioned taxes) 14,022,9121. The quar ter ending 10th October 1822 produced (with out those taxes) 13,217,3141., leaving an appa rentdecrease of 805,5981. To make a fair com parison between these two quarters, we must add the following items, in which there has been an abolition or reduction of taxes. Leather . - Malt - - - - Salt - - - - Assessed Taxes - - Tonnage Duties (about) - £26,243 - 1 . ,033,765 - 79,204 - 140,304 - 50,000 1,329,521 Deduct apparent Decrease • 805;598 Remains real InCrease X 523,923 [MORNING POST.] The intelligence from Madrid comes down to the • &l instant. The Constitutionalists fairly •• admit that on the 18th ult. the party commanded by Colonel Tabuenca suffered, a, defeat on the frontiers of Arragon. It consisted of only SOO 'men, and , fought for six hours against five or six thousand Insurgents, whose overpowering superi ority compelled it at last to retire, with the loss of its Commander, who was taken prisoner with the head 'of his Staff, whilst reconnoitring the ground at some diStance from his troops. The first Royalist accounts stated him to have been immediately shot, but later ones represent him to have died of his wounds on his way to the Seo d'Urgel. This is the action which was mag nified by the Ultras into a great victory gained over Mina himself, who, it was asserted, had either perished in the contest or was so closely blocked up by ,superior forces at I.4erifia, that he could not long avoid surrendering with his whole army. These reports are reiterated by the Royalists ; whilst the Patriots, who do not seem disposed to conceal the real state of their affairs, maintain that Mina was not engaged in the con flict ; and that, far from beinc , surrounded and confined within the walls of Lerida, he had no sooner heard of Tabuenca's disaster than he gave directions. to march upon Cervera, in order to strike an important blow. They add, that in flamed with thirst for revenge, , his troops carried that place by storm, and growing ungovernable in their fury, could not be prevented from put ting the whole garrison to the sword. [THE TIMES.] A letter from Mr. John Hall to Mr. Bennett, at Lloyd's, conveys intelligence _that the Dutch Government has taken off the extra tonnage duties on British shipping in the ports of the N therlands, and placed our merchantmen on a. footing of equality with those of the Dutch and Flemish merchants. This, then, is the first and natural fruit of a more liberal system of maritime policy than heretofore, on the part of the British Government. This, too, is a re futation of the absurd prognostics believed in by some commercial men amongst ourselveS, and long employed and adhered to by certain of our Statesmen,—that by relaxing our maritime law we should lay Great Britain at the mercy of other States, who 'Would profit by, but not imitate, her generosity. This has been falsefied in two very striking instances-Lin that of tbe United States, which, by a proclamation of Mr. Monroe, dated the latter end of August, opened the ports of the Republic to British ships, on the fair and salutary principal of reciprocity, Great Britain having set the example on be- half of American vessels in. her colonial harbours; and 2d, in that of the Netherlands above stated. The consequence must be a general increase of commerce, the grand resource of the merchant and the financier. The next good effect is a final increase of comfort among all ranks of people, from that reduction of prices which more extended commerce always brings, and by which, ultimately, the interests of agriculture itself are promoted. The last result of an increased commercial intercourse is, the powerful confirma tion which it produces of the bonds of friendship, and of the spirit of peace between neighbouring countries. In every fresh cargo' which passes from one, commercial city to another, there is a fresh assortment of mutual dependencies, of common interests, and of amicable feelings, which all conspire to postpone the day of (at last, perhaps, inevitable) hostility, and to as suage its evils when it can be no longer deferred. The small trial which the principle of free trade has yet undergone from the measures of this Go vernment is, nevertheless,' enough to illustrate its value as a principle ; and we trust' that ere the lapse of another Session, the British mer chant will enjoy its benefits to a more ample and satisfactory extent. . GROANING AND CRYING.--A French su rgeon lately . published a long dissertation on the bene tidal influence of groaning and crying on the ner vous system. He contends that groaning and ' crying are the two grand operations by which nature. allays anguish ; and that he has - uniformly observed that those patients who giVe way to their natural feelings more speedily recover from accidents and operations than those who ima gine it is unworthy a man to betray such symp toms of cowardice and weakness as either to groan or to cry. lie is• always pleased by the crying and violent roaring of a patient during the time he is undergoing a severe surgical operation, be-' cause he is satisfied that he will thereby so soothe his system as to prevent fever, and ensure a favourable termination.- Erom the benefit hyste rical and_other nervous patients deride from cry ing or groaning, he supposes that by these pro cesses of nature the superabundant nervous power is exhausted, and the nervous system is in con sequence rendered calm, and even the circulation of the blood greatly diminished. Re relates a case of. a, man who, by means of crying and laughing-, reduced his pulse from 120. to 60 . in the course of two hours. That some. patients often have a great satisfaction in grinning, and that hysterical patients, often experience great relief from crying, no person will deny. As to restless; hypochondriacal subjects, or those 'who are never happy but when they are, under some course of medical or dietetic treatment, the French surgeon assures them that they cannot-do better than to groan all night and cry all day.--' By following 'this rule, and observing an abste mious diet, a. person will effectually escape dis ease, and may prolong life - to an incredible extent. ( American Paper.) . SUICIDE.--CORONER'S INouEsT.--Yesterday evening an Inquest was' held in the Committee room of the Middlesex Hospital, before THOS. STIRLING, Esq. Coroner, on the body of 111 r. Jackson Cranston, a half-pay officer, aged 40, who put an - end to his existence by cutting his throat on Wednesday last, at his lodgings, the Cross Keys, Belton-street, Long-acre. 'lt ap peared from the evidence that the deceased 'was labouring under a complaint in the head, and haiing lately received a letter announcing his brother's-death, it 'seemed to have a sensible effect upon his mind, and he never since has been well. On W ednesday morning last the inmates of the house m which the deceased lodged were alarmed by hearing groans, and proceeding ,to his bed room on the second floor, they found him with his throat cut, and two razors were ' lying by his' side.--;-Verdict—" Temporary de. , rangement." HOUSE OF COMMONS. Very extensive repairs and alterations of the House of Comnioni are now in progress. The House is in a state Of more complete dilapidation than it has been for many years. It is occupied with scaffolding and workmen. The Cushions of the benches, Ministerial and. Opposition,. as well as those under the gallery, where Peers, Peers' and Members' sons, Ambaisadors, and other foreigners of distinction, are admitted to sit to hear the debates, have been entirely removed ; also the secondary coverings of the benches ; all have been conveyed to what is called, the'" Long Gallery," which leads to the upper or throne end of the House of Lords. They. are there being renovated. The benches and steps leading to them are in many instances being altered and re paired, so as to increase their commodiousness.— The scaffolding is mainly raised with the view of promoting some very extensive alterations in the ceiling, and in the mode of ventilating the House: Between .the ceiling and the roof is a large gallery or loft, in some parts of full twenty feet in height, and extending in length over " the house" in which the Members asSemble to de bate, the " Strangers' Gallery," and thence over the passages and gallery-stairs' lobby, being bounded by the %Tails terminating the " Smoking Room"—an anty-room used by members literally for such purposes, segars being adopted by them: This immense loft has a good, strong, but anti quated floor ; and during recent sessions, par ticularly during the last session, on debate nights, it was no uncommon occurrence for a party- of , ladies, from seven to ten ,in number, to be as sembled in this elevated station, chiefly around the centre ventilator, over the chandelier, to hear the debates. They were accommodated with chairs, which were stationed around the gratings or ven tillators' already existing in the ceiling. The Members could- be only impeifectly seen ; but those who spoke audibly were very distinctly heard in the roof, or " Ladies' Gallery." It is approachable by a stair-case that led to the Mem bers' Coffeehouse, previously to its removal by Mr. Bellamy, the present housekeeper, to the upper rooms of the Stone' buildings, opposite Henry the Seventh's Chapel. This roof is are markable place, not only on account of its extent and structure, and of the ventillating machinery contained in. it, but from the curious and very, perfeCt remains of -the original architecture of the building that are there to be. Seen.. The walls are from eight to ten feet high from the level of the floor previously to the commence-' ment of the roof ; and these walls display the ancient architecture, its arches,- pilasters, decora- Lions, &c. of the sharp pointed Gothic style. In some instances they are partially destroyed, but in many other instances remain hi a remarkably perfect state. Perhaps, excepting the cloisters by the Speaker's house, &c. there are not to be seen more distinct remains of the arehitecture of St. Stephen's Chapel,' and of ancient buildings near to Westminster-hall, than are to be discovered under the roof, and above the ceiling, of the House of Commons. Several_ very distinguished archi tects, accompanied by lovers of antiquities, have recently been to view the specimens of ancient building and decoration here to be found. Mr. 'Soave is in 'frequent attendance, as he is super intending the new entrance, Sze. to the Parlia ment Houses. There are already introduced into the ceiling of the House of CoMmons; se veral pieces of open frame work, so formed as to appear like ornaments, and to act as ventilators, one in each corner of it, and a _large ventilator in its centre, from the middle point of which the grand chandelier was suspended. It has been removed, to be altered and improved. In addi tion to the ventilators already formed, two new ones, of considerable dimensions, are being con istructed. One of them is directly over the middle benches of the Strangers' Gallery, the present aperture in the ceiling being seven feet by two feet. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

Mails arrived this day at the Post Office from Flanders and Holland, which do not communicate any political intelligence. The letters by the Dutch Mail froni St. Peters burgh are dated on the 20th ult. (/4.5.). The Exchange was 10. 1-32. Tallow had again declined - to 1013 rubles, but there were no buyers of it at such high Prices, and in general trade was exceedingly dull. Here on the Baltic walk the trade pur chase tallow very sparingly at 43. Yesterday, however, the speculators bought some at 45., by which some heavy wagers were decided. In Mincing-lane the sugar market continues to improve.— The sales of the week have been very considerable, and the ad vance since this day week cannot be reckoned- under 2s. a cwt. The speculative inquiry still continues, for the very low prices have attracted the notice of capitalists. Fine quality is worth 725. a 785., and curiously fine has been sold at 80s. ; good, 655. to 70s. ; middling, 60s. to 645. ; and brown, at 535. to 58s. per cwt. The Rum Contract, which was taken at a fraction under is. sd. has not had any material effect on the market, and prices remain the same as for some time past. Coffee is rather heavy this week, which rimy be attributed to the great proportion of ordinary and Triage, which has been brought forward for sale. Prices of the better descriptions are, however, fully maintained. At Mark-lane, contrary winds continue to render the sup plies of Grain'unusually small; but large arrivals are expected, and consumers will not purchase until they be received. The business done this day in Grain is so small, that it is impossible to quote any change in prices. Liverpool imported,from Ireland, of Grain, in the thrce last years, beginning and ending the Ist October, as follow Wheat. Oats. Barley.

PALACE COURT, FRIDAY. LAUSON V. HULME. The plaintiff, and the defendant axe both females. The plaintiff, who had been cook to the defendant; brought her action to recover four guineas, the amount of a quarter's wages.. Mr. James Hulme, a young gentleman of fashionable appearance,. the defendant's eldest son, was examined for the plaintiff, and proved that she had been hired by his mother at the rate 'of sixteen pounds a year, and had en tered into her service on the 17th of July, and continued in it WI the 2d of September, on which day Mrs. Hulme hav ing called, her. froth the head of the kitchen stairs, she made no answer, and Mrs.Huhne having again called, the servants in the kitchen asked the plaintiff, " Did she not bear her mis tress call ?". The plaintiffreplied, " Much I care for that."— Mrs. Hulme insisted on her leaving her service instantly, and her wages to the day being calculated by the witness at 3/. Gs. 60., that sum was offered her, which she refused tUtake, say ing she had agreed for 16 guineas 'a year; and ,would consult With her friends. The piaintiff's case closed. here. There was no evidence for the defendant. :The Learned Judge charged the Jury, that although the de fendant hired the plaintiff' at yearly wages,. she still retained the power of discharging her. at any moment for misconduct ; and the answer she had given When 'called by her mistress was such misconduct as would justify dis Charging her ; but they were to examine whether the sum tendered in payment of her wages amounted to the sum actually due. . .The Jury returned a' verdict for the plaintiff 31.125. ; .which entitles the plaintiff to costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET.—RIOT AT HAMPSTEAD.—On Thursday night and yesterday a great portion of the time of the Magis trates was occupied in hearing the following curious affair : Mr. Smith, a respectable butcher, 'at Hampstead, was the leaseholder of an inn at that village, called the Old White Hart, which, ,however, has been shut up for a considerable time.— Some months ago, there being then twelve years of the lease iindxpiredi'he made an' assignment of it to another person, a Mr. Pardoe, it was understood, who had it but a very short time before he was found to be in insolvent circumstances; and he employed one Sharpe, a broker and auctioneer, to dispose of it to the best bidder. Mr. Sharpe soon found a pur chaser in the person of a Mr. Hodgkiss, who, in his turn, au thorised Sharpe to employ men to pull down the house and sell the materials.. This work Mr. Sharpe immediately commenced. Up to yesterday, the interior, tince.the commencement of the dilapidation of the house, pursuant to this Mr. Sharpe's order, has been occupied in a series of occupations and expulsions from the premises of the workmen of Sharpe, and Mr. Smith and his 'adherents ; and on Thursday an attack was made on Smith's people, then in possession of the house, which ended in much 'bloodshed and the infliction of several severe wounds. Sharpe's people, seven in number, were beaten off, and yesterday he and they were held to bail. HATTON.GAIMEN..—LAMENTABLE DEPRAVlTY.—Yes terday a youth, named Richard Farren, about sixteen years of age, was brought up for re-examination, charged with com mitting a robbery on Mr. Win. Bowser, of Islington.—From the evidence adduced on the occasion against this misguiided 'lad, it appeared that he was one of the most noted thieves, pickpockets, or housebreakers, 'in the metropolis. That from his earliest age up to the present time, he constantly employed himself in daring acts of theft apparently far beyond his years; and young as he now is, he has been frequently tried and whipped, and on every occasion of his discharge from prison he 'returns with, if possible, renewed activity and vigour to his sys tem-of plunder. The theft for which Farren was yesterday examined was committed on last Thursday week, and the pri soner had Only been discharged the preceding day from prison. The evidence was conclusive against the prisoner, and he was fully committed to Newgate for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—CHARGE Or BlGANY.—Yes terday Miles Rayner, a middle-aged man, late a servant in the family of Lord Westmoreland, was charged with having inter married with Maria Ann Flask, an interesting looking young woman, his former wife being still living. The prisoner was also charged with having deserted his for mer wife and three children ; and, in so doing, burthening the parish of St. George with their support. ' It appeared that in consequence of the prisoner's neglecting to support his wife and children, application was made by them to the parish, when support was granted, and continued for some time. A warrant, however, was issued for the apprehen sion of the prisoner, which was executed at the time he was Cohabiting with another Woman, to whom it was afterwards as certained the prisoner had been married. The officer here produced the certificates of both marriages, the last of which proved the marriage of the prisoner with Maria Ann Flask, to have been solemnised 'at St. George's Church, Hanover-square, on the 21st of February last. The prisoner, on being asked what he had to Say in his de. fence to the charge of deserting his wife and children, said, he had continued to support them as far as was in his power, until a few months back, when his wife was continually threatening to prosecute him—in consequence of which, together with not being overstocked with money, he had neglected. giving her the usual stipend ; he was, however, at present perfectly willing to enter into an arrangement, and continue to contribute as much as lie possibly could to their support. Mrs. Rayner, now deposed, that she had been married to the prisoner for a number of years, and had three children by him ; but, in consequence of frequent disagreements, the prisoner, about eight years' ago, quitted her, when she was obliged to resort to the parish for relief, and the prisoner was compelled to' allow her a weekly stipend; which he acted up to for some time, but ultimately seemed to forget that she and her children were existing. Since he had thus deserted her, he had cohabit ed with another female, and she at length ascertaiaed that lie had intermarried with llaria Ann Flask, who had occasionally called upon her with the greatest effrontery, confessing that she had been married to her husband, and making proposals to allow her something per week, which she disdainfully rejected, and determined on bringing forwardsthe present prosecution. Mr. CONAT asked the prisoner what he had to say in his de fence to the latter charge ?—He acknowledged to having mar ried Mary Ann Flask, but repeated his readiness to support his wife and family. AL CONANT asked if there was any person present to prove the second marriage ? Grist produced the certificate, informing the Magistrate that the only person present, who could prove the marriage, was Maria Flask, the second wife. The.officer said he had only in , structions to proceed against the prisoner for the desertion of his family. Mr. CobrAwT—But here is a charge of felony brought be fore me, to which lam bound to pay attention. You must swear. Flask—No, - your Worship, I will not be sworn. I feel no ' inclination to injure the prisoner, nor do I see any necessity for my being sworn. "have never taken an oath in the course of my life, and, I am totally ignorant of the nature 0 t tile 1" ceedin Mr. CONANT now wished her to understand could thatg i be e r a r nt e : • faueigaulatointebde with hom the ewoeirulcod circumstances e o r e te toofathsuespicion thatioing pr i s oner's no a be wife and family when she married him • and e that proved, she would be liabl e t o b e severely punishe d ' d I c. sil Flask—My family, i s very respectable a n 'prove that I did not know of th e p r isoner having been"'airiage m arry before, or that Mrs. Rayner existed at the time In 9 took place. very Mrs. Rayner here denied this, saying that flas,,,k, iria nate l l knew it ; it was told her at Lord Saltoun's, bu t 11 ' — '1 1 be she could produce no further evidence to that effect.
