THE LONDON JOURNALS. irrnAcTs FROM TIH 13,4111 Y. IWAIMING .PAVEAS, August 1, 1822. [MORNING . POST.] The House of Commons having finished all its business, adjourned last night to Monday next.; :end on Tuesday, or - Wednesday at farthest (as we Stated yesterday) Parliament will be pro rogued by his Majesty in person. 'On the clues 'tion of adjournment being put, Mr. I3ennet and Mr. Hume made their farewell speeches. ,The former Gentleman expects for every Petition presented this ye'r, that ten will be produced in the ensuing Session ; the latter looks forward to a further reduction of expenditure of from seven to tel millions ! Mr. Martin remarked it was matter of astonishment that Mr. Hume had not suggested such reductions as he now considers to be necessary, "While he sat among the friends of Ministers. The Honourable Member for Aberdeen did not answer this,-either by declaring that he had offered snch hints before he ratted, or by explaining how he came to see 'things so wonderful-1y clear after turning his coat, which had wholly escaped his observatiOn before. Some edifying reflections 'might be made on the circumstances which form a patriot, and on the means by which popularity and plate can be most easily obtained. These we .may indulge in on a future occasion. At pre sent we shall only remark, that in the east of Mr. Hume it is seen, as in many , others, thht an unregarded retainer of Ministers, who has not talent enough even to make Itis name known or apostacy remarkable, will , pass for a very great man in the ranks of an OppoSition like the pre sent. . [MORNING CIIRONICLE.I The business of the Session having been gone through, the House of Commons 'adjourned last night to Monday next ; Mr. Bennet, in what may be called a valedictory address, said, " be fore this SesSion the Ilouse had not attended in 'the slightest degree to the Petitions of tlie Peo ple, but they had now in some degree listened to their complaints, complied with their requests, lessened - the expenditure, and lowered taxes." Mr. Ilume seemed, however, to think that his honourable Friend had given to the House what belonged properly to Lord Londonderry, who was alone entitled to thanks for any remis sion of taxes that had tak'en place, though he himself should have been more grateful had the redfictiOn of expenditure corresponded to the remission of taxes. We cannot help thinking that the House shewed themselves much more obe dient to the call of his Lordship than the wishes of their Constituents, voting, as they did, against all reduction one day, and for it the next, with out any change of circumstances to justify the contradiction. The country, as Mr. Hume ob served, owe nothing to the House,,and the Ap pendices to the Report on the returns of Mem bers holding places, partly explain the reason _why the House and , the Country have so little sympathy with each other. Mr. Hume said he had no hesitation in declaring his belief, that be fore the end of the next Session a.reduction of 7,000,0001. would be effected in the public ex penditure. . . _ . [BRITISH PRESS.] Last night the attention of the House of Com mons was called, and very properly called, by Dr. Lushington, to the debts due to •the credi tors of her ; late Majesty. The Hon. and. Learned Gentleman stated, "that it appeared from the ac counts at present, that between the assets left by her Majesty and the grant of Parliament, there would be only, 29,0001. to meet a demand of 44,0001.,. which was the amount of her Ma jesty's debts, both gnglish and foreign. Now this sum twill not be divided equally amongst all the creditors, as strict justice would require, but, according to one of -the resolutions in the Bill, the parliamentary grant is to be confined to liquidate the debts of English tradesmen solely. As far as feeling is concerned, one cannot help rejoicing that the poor English tradesman shall suffer no loss ; but it is not only a reflection . • on the Government, but a national disgrace, that the just and lawful debts of an English , Queen should xemain unsatisfied—debts too not origk nating in any wanton or unnecessary extrava gance,. but created by an imperious and over 'ruling- necessity, partly arising too from a mis underitanding, if not a deceit, practised on her by the Government. Far better would it be for his Majesty's Ministers to abstain from any act which can tend to awaken the. recollection of events which they perhaps would "be the most anxious (as they have the best reason) should be forgotten. The sum is trilling, the country would willingly consent to it, and the disgrace of leaving 'these debts unpaid would be perpetual. 1 . [NEW TIMES. 3 We yesterday received, by express, letters and papers from Parrs to a late hour on Sunday even ing. They leave the recent news from Spain still in cousiderable obscurity ; and the opinions of the writers on it are much divided. The Courier Prang . ais, a paper exactly corresponding . in revolutionary sentiments with The Times, treats the whole story as The Tunes did, as serting it to be a gross falsehood. The Consti tutionnel, Which bears about the. same relation to The Coul'ier Franguir as The illprning Chro nicle does to:. The Times, attempts to discredit the news by argument, but des not go so far as to give it a poSitive denial. The Royalist Papers content themselves, with observing, that, as the - nr:rs by thp",: . regular .courier from Madrid came down onty,to,the 18th, it could. neither confirm• nor disprok - that which was said to have been brought by a. special courier "on Saturday; except sd far..aS the occurrences up to the 18th might afford , a`prnbable . inference Of further movements. ;" [THE , rtmEs . .] We . take: .- the opportunity which the arrival of. French -.Papers affords us to notice, that an at tempt; a.s..bangling and absurd in its contrivance as it thasrliave been odious - and disgraceful, in its purpose,. was yesterday playa off in the City: to mislead the public mind on the subject of Spa wish affairs.. About two o'clockiti . the afternoon, after the Evening Papers hail obtained their usual supply of intelligence,.and exhausted their usual means of inquiry, a pretended despatch was rectived by a respectable Coffee-house in the City, enclosing three documents in two different languages. The , first was a soi-disant letter from Paris, dated .10. o'clock on Monday night, men tioning only the arrival of a courier from Madrid in four days, and referring to an enclosure for news ; the second was an incoherent farrago of undated nonsense,. purporting to be the account of a battle in Madrid, which ended in favour of the Liberals, after the slaughter of 6,000 men ; and the third a pretended kind of ultra-liberal song of triumph (in the shape of a proclamation,) without date or signature, over a battle without probability or details. It would be superfluous to enter fartherinto the circumstances of a hoax which did not for a moment mislead or to attempt to destroy the 'ci - "e - ra - Tiibrication which died in the moment of its -bieih: Ridicule and contempt will be the only punishment which we would in flict on 'sueh silly ill-contrived inventions, Were we. not convinced that they had their origin in fraudulent and disreputable motives. The approach of settling day in ,Spanish Stock ' ' will at once explain this pretended victory of the Liberals after an extensive carnage, and the foolish counter-revolution of the Dra per" Blanc without . a battle. Truly, if the Serviles in Spain bring no greater talent and dex terity to the service of Ferdinand and absolute power, than their friends north of the Pyrennees to the invention of plausible falsehoods, the Spa nish Constitution is in no more danger of being overpowered, than English good sense of being over-reached. [ - MORNING HEKALII. COMMITTEE: FOR THE DISTRELED IRISH. Extract of tt Letter from Castlebar, JIIIN 20 : " I beg to inform the Committee, that in conse quence of the very severe distress which has generally prevailed in this district ; the females are peculiarly deserving of protection, a great portion of them having been discharged from employment, with Out a residence to go to, or without means to procure the common neces saries of life, and have' actually been under the painful necessity of selling, their clothes to procure sustenance, and a great portion of them are at this present time almost in a state of nudity ; and I much fear, if clothing is not pro vided for them, many may be sacrificed by the inclemency of the winter. It is the anxious desire of the factory to purchase wool, and to have it manufactured into cloth ing. However, the fund applicable to the factory is not adequate to such an under taking. By desire I annex an estimate of the probable expence of clothing each female, and, should the idea meet the countenance of your Committee, aided as they must be by the bene- volent females of Great Britain, I shall esteem it a mark of attention if they Avill communicate to me their opinimr and determination thereon. I shall only add, I consider clothing for a female almost as requisite as, food." PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. (Frain the Bury Gazette, July 31.) The Suffolk Pitt Club is about to hold its second Anniver sary ; and if the county be still what it has always been con sidered, a wise, religious, and loyal county, there cannot be a doubt that the occasion will concentrate such an assemblage of the estimable portion of society, as will convince the advocates of anarchy that their undertakirw is not quite so easy as they at present flatter themselves. It there ever lived a Statesman whose memory deserved to be made immortal by the grati tude of his country, that man was WILLIAM PITT. His mighty mind created resources, in the hour of peril, of such wondrous magnitude as the imagination of man had never before conceived : his potent genius directed these resources in every part of the warring world, for the salvation of ,Bri tain and the succour of surrounding nations. He struggled with and overcame a domestic faction of most appalling force. Ile preserved to his country the.blessing of internal tran quillity, whilst all around was blood, and homicide, and ruin. He trained a band of patriots, who, pursuing his precepts, crushed the power that had deluged Europe with blood ; and, with the wealth of empires in his reach, died in honourable po verty l—a victim to the services he had rendered his beloved country. Such was the man,whose name hallowed in the grateful recollections of a free, brave,_ and loyal people, serves as - a rally-' ing point for the friends of the Constitution in Church and State, as delivered to us by our ancestors, and by law established. 'And the aspect of the times threatening the very existence of all those time-honoured institutions on which, we believe, our happiness on earth and hope of heaven depend, Tenders it an imperative duty on all whose example may be of import to those around, and who would preserve the Throne from thral dom, .the Law from violation, and the Altar from pollution, to assemble beneath the banner inscribed with the immortal name of WILLIAM PITT. AGRICW',TITRI;4 I , &c. MONTHLY REPORT FOR JULY.—Froin the un favourableness of the weather for some days past the Wheat harvest has been in a precarious state. In several parts of the home and eastern . counties, a considerable extent of Wheat: has been carted, aud samples produced at market, fine in quality, .and exceeding last year's weight. But the princi.pal Corn districts . that cut later have it chiefly abroad, and from the continuance of dose' damp weather, much of it is found speered. The Markets are looking upwards. The rains have improved the Barleys on good soils. Oats and beans are generally light crops. Rapeseed is 'on the rise. Although the Swedish Turnips have almost every where failed, the . Hertfordshire W' bite and Tankards, with which the lauds. ; have been resown, have planted well, and are so full of growth, that a fair average pro duce feed 'limy be expected from them.— Coleseed, Ilangel Wurzel, and. Cattle Cabbage, are likely to prove abundant. Potatoes are not found to rise well, from having shot afresh in the ground, through the moisture of the wea ther. The Cider counties of Devon, Hereford, and Worcester, :expect a fine average crop.-- h e Hop plantations have benefitted much by the heavy rains, throughout Kent and Sussex. Smithfield has been rather scantily supplied with prime Beef, - which commands a better price ; but 'the Lamb and Mutton trade continues low from .the abundance forced upon the market in a half fat state.. Store Sheep are worth more money; but lean Beasts are considerably lower. The fairs are brisk for good shaped Horses, for either car, riage or the field ; several strings of them have lately been shipped for the Imperial stables in Russia. The Wool trade is rather better for fine short fleeces ; 'but long Wool remains stationary at last month's prices.. PIRACY. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM A SPANISH HOUSE AT THE HAVANNA'', DATED MAY '" We have recommended to Mr. ---, in case of his chartering a. vessel , to choose one armed with four guns at least, having from 16 to 20 men, with a sufficient number of muskets and ammunition to defend Vier against the pirate's with which our coast is swarming. A great num ber of American vessels have been plundered, and their crews most cruelly treated, which has induced the Government of the United States to send a light squadron of brigs and 'schooners to these seas. One of them, the Grampus, retook the, British brig Cherub, Captain WINDER, from Buenos Ayres, bound to this port, which was in possession of four open boats filled with pirates : one was sunk by the Gramynts, one sent in here, and the two others escaped. We would wish to see three or four of your fine frigates here, and some brigs and schooners, to protect the trade against these depredators. They must be sunk without mercy,and not be brought into this port, where they all find padrinos, or protectors, who, together with the dilatory proceedings of our Courts of Law, ensure their perfect impunity.— ( The THE ARMY.

COWES, JULY 30. The depot of the 47th regiment, about 240 strong, were embarked here yesterday for Portsmouth, to do garrison duty there. Mr. WALTER BURRELL, one of our County Members, and who, through the agricultural distresses, has several of his farms whi c h h e u s e d to let upon his o wn hands, w e are cre dibl y hi formed, finished his wheat harvest upon them all on Saturday. his crops are said to have been abundant,(BrFghton Chronicle.)' FOR THE SUN. MR. EDITOR—In your paper of ,Friday you inserted a paragraph, * stating the liberation of Mr. WOOLER " from his prison at Warwick," ,and that a dinner was given to him on Thursday, ,by the artisans of Birmingham, in honour thereof, at which several speeches were made. Your Cor respondent was a little mistaken in the latter part of his communication, as yesterday was " the day, the important day," for that festival, which had far some weeks been announced by placards posted against the walls. About one o'clock, yesterday (a day for ever memorable in the an nals of the Bruins, being that appointed for a wake, at which all the and town generally assemble—e sociis noscitur), the Black Dwarf arrived, accompanied by two or three hired carriages, and some half dozen greasy fellows on horseback, and at tended by many of his lricd friends, who occa sionally made " the welkin ring" with their gra tulations on account of his liberation, a few mu sical instruments preceding them, which ever and anon " sounded an alarm" through the streets; ' but from the vox populi it was impossible 'to dis tinguish whether the performers had chosen the Rogue's-March or the Black ----- , for the occasion. After calling at the head-quarters of the cele brated George Edmonds, who, out of respect to IC the God of his Idolatry'," rode into town bareheaded, they adjourned to a place ap propriated to cock-fighting and other respectable amusements, in a retired spot called Lawrence street (known among the Torn and Jerry lads as the back slums), there to regale themselves at three shillings per head, no one being admitted without tickets, in order to render the party select. The renowned Mr. COBBETT was an nounced as one of the Junto who was to meet his brother compatriots, but it appears that dudgeon arose among them : Sir CHARLES WOLSELEY, the lately elected 64 Legislatorial Attorney of BirminghaM," but who has _never yet " taken the oaths and his seat," and a Mr. NORTHMORE, were named in the Bills, as gentle men who would grace the festive board ; Mr. COBBETT'S name was also introduced, but it ap pears to have been without his consent, and al though the getters up of the farce wrote to hitn, stating the disappointment that would occur, should he persist in refusing to come, Sir Tristram Fickle remained inexorable, turning " a deaf ear to the charmers," and asserting that he could not be supposed to be acquainted with the views of the Committee. This object, however, it would not be very difficult to divine, it being at this time of day pretty well ascertained. "Having neglected to purchase a ticket of admission, till too late to avail myself of that glorious privi lege, I cannot impart to you an account, of the speeches uttered on the occasion, or the bursts of applause which followed the delivery of them ; but from the numerous opportunities lately af forded to us, we may very easily judge of the burden of the remarks. Thanks to the returned good sense of the inhabitants of the town, who very generally partake of the returning prospe rity of our native land, the day passed off with out any of that disturbance which was probably calculated upon by those who chose such a day for the dealing out of their nostrums. I remain, your's, &c. Birmingham, July 30, 1822. ARGUS. * The paragraph in question was taken from one of the Morning .Papers. ASCENT FROM CHELTENHAM. TUESDAY, JULY 30.—This afternoon, at half past three o'clock, Mr. GREEN, the aeronaut, with a Gentleman named GRIFFITH, of the Chel tenham Chronicle, made an ascent with a large and very beautiful balloon, from a yard at the back of the London Hotel, in this town, amidst a more numerous assemblage of Nobility, Gen- try, and Fashionables, than was ever wit nessed in this place on any former occa sion. At half-past three o'clock the Gentle men entered the car (which was of most costly and elegant structure, a gift to the xronaut by Colonel Reddell of this place) ap parently in high spirits ; they both displayed the utmost coolness and intrepidity ; and having at tached the cords, they bade adieu to their friends, when at the moment the car was removed to the farther end of the ground to windward, it was discovered that some wicked person had cut one of the cords that suspended .it from the net-work. Mr. Green, with the greatest promptitude, order ed every person to leave the car, and when cirged to have the cord 'repaired, he replied," I'll not hazard the cutting of another cord—l do not depend upon one line only, unloose the ropes." The cords were loosened immediately, and the balloon ascended in the most majestic manner, amidst the plaudits of thousands.— The voyagers remained in sight upwards of twenty minutes, and the greatest delight and satisfaction were expressed by every behold er. Bets, amounting to many thousand pounds, were depending upon the ascent. A public dinner will take place to-morrow, at the Plough Hotel, of Mr. Green's Committee, inhabi tants, and visitors. Lord Sherborne was on the ground, with several Noblemen.—The course of the balloon was due east"; it passed over Northleach, and Lord Sherborne's park, and we hear the mrial voyagers descended near that place, after being half an hour in the trackless space. ,Great numbers of Gentlemen have rode out to meet and welcome Messrs. Green and Griffith. Saturday forenoon the Weigh-house of this City was sold by public roup for 2711. Early this morning a number of workmen began to take it down, and it must be cleared away on or before the Gth of August, under a penalty of 501.— . ( Edinburgh Courant, July 29.) A dreadful attempt was made to assassinate, Mr. O'BRIEN (late of the county Limerick.) at his new residence, near Caller, on Sunday night, by a desperate gang, who fired several shots, which wounded Mr. O'BRIEN. Mr. CAVENDISH, and a party Of the 10th hussars, under the Earl of WILTstuRE, followed the perpetrators, but without effect. LAW INTELLIGENCE: COURT OF CHANCERY, AMY .3 1 .
