TIIE LONDON JOURNALS. EXTRACTS FROM THE DAILY MORNING , PAPERS, November 7, 18'22. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] M. de Chateaubriaud is, we learn, expected in London by the end of the month. The return of M. de Montmorency has also been announced in the Paris Papers :—ln fact, the Congress has had nothing to do. The Sovereigns had, no doubt, made up their minds to do something, or they ivotlld not have taken the trouble to cross the Alps. As it would be next to madness to expect any good from them, their inaction mtist be viewed in the light of no ordinary blessing. Even if we did not know of their determination to enforce, wherever it can be enforced, the Monarchical principle, ai► assemblage of Despots or arbitrary Monarchs, to regulate the affairs of the nations would, of itself, be sufficiently alarming to those who have at heart the welfare and improvement of the Intn,an race. Thanks, however, to the instruc tions, of the Duke of Wellington, and the pru dent as well as manly part taken by the British Cabinet, the prey has this time been withdrawn from their grasp. The Royal vultures have been deprived of their anticipated meal. With respect to the Sovereign of Russia and Prince Metternich, they must no doubt be greatly chagrined at the disappointment they have experienced. They little anticipated that the Government of England would at last remember that it has duties towards its own subjects, and that neither the advantage nor the honour of the country could be promoted by supporting a Confederacy which has for object the triumph of barbarism and ignorance over civilization. It was not by acting on the system of the Holy Alliance that England became intel ligent, wealthy, and powerful, and it is not by supporting that system that it can hope to con tinue so. The best reproof they can receive, is the demonstration of their importance without England, and the humiliating contrast now forced on them between the resources of their overgrown dominions, and those of a small island in the Northern Ocean, naturally far from fertile, and owing its productiveness chiefly to the industry and enterprize of its inhabitants. [TUE TIMES.] Letters from Bahia to the 13th of September were received yesterday. The expected contest between the Portuguese and the Brazilians had not taken place, but the crisis appeared to be near at hand. General Le Batt, who com manded the Brazilians, had drawn his lines closer to the city, and was receiving accessions to his force. He had availed himself of the assistance of a body of the natives, a class of men Su ffi cien tly formidable, and easily incited to join any cause that held out the prospect of plunder. A Portuguese soldier, who ventured beyond the en trenchments, had been found dead, pierced by a poisoned arrow, the weapon used by tha natives. General Madeira remained on the defensive, and skewed no disposition to make the first attack. This cautious conduct seems to have caused dis satisfaction to many of the Portuguese residents, who urged more decisive measures, and who were endeavouring to procure the removal of General Madeira from the chief command. [MORNING lIERAMLI The Foreign Intelligence of yesterday would induce a belief that the French Government me ditates making war upon Spain, even without - waiting the determination of the Congress. This is so improbable, that nothing but the most de cisive indications should obtain belief. The Go vernment of France has certainly shown its hind— " Willing to wound, but yet afraid to strike." But it has been the general opinion, justified by all appearances, that the more reflecting majo-' rity of the advisers of the King had resolved to sacrifice the gratification of the passions to consi derations of prudence. The symptoms of hosti lity are said to be at present multiplied and strengthened. Accounts in the Paris Papers re present the Army of Observation as manifesting signs of the opening of a campaign. This is not all—French frigates are said to be cruising off Cadiz and Corunna. It is true, under a pacific pretext—that of protecting any French subjects exposed to hazard in Spain. That this can be no other than a mere pretext is obvious ; but it is still more probable that there is in these ru mours—for they still are only such—much distor tion or exaggeration. [MORNING POST.] VVe received at a late hour, lasi night, Bayonne Papers to the 30th ult. They present an afflict ing picture of the state of demoralization and wretchedness to which the criminal excitations of the Rebels have reduced the frontier Provinces of Spain, but contain no accounts of military operations or battles. It appears that the lower classes in those provinces are taking arms in every direction ; not, however, to fight in sup port of the Regency of Urgel, but C ‘ to plunder the rich." In fact they are becoming hordes of banlitti, who, without any political object in view, commit the most horrible excesses. Thisis a still greater calamity than the civil war Which the pretended Royalists have inflicted upon their. country : for swords maybe sheathed and cities may be rebuilt ; but when the moral habits of a whole people- are changed, years, if not centuries, may elapse before the mental leprosy be entirely eradicated. It appears that Mina is acting with consummate prudence.— Aware that much will depend on the result of the first battle which is fought, he does not rashly seek. to engage, but confining himself for the present to maintaining a commanding line of po_aitions, he adds daily to the strength of his army, both in numbers and discipline, and thus prepares, if he does not insure, the means of future victory. [NEW TIMES .1 An express bps brought us intelligence from Verona to the ibth ult. Up to that period no thing of a very interesting nature had transpired. A variety of rumours were of course in circuia tion. It was said, even in well informed circles, 1 that Congress would decidedly interfere with the affairs of Spain, and require from the Go vernment some alteration in the present Con stitution, so as to render it more assimilated to 'that of France. It was even further af firmed that the Courts of Paris, St: Petersburg, Vienna, and Berlin had joined in a common Note to this effect, which had been already transmitted to and had arrived at Madrid, but to which no satisfactory answer had been received. The first subject to which the August Assembly would devote its attention was understood to be the Slave Trade. The general 'complexion, of the advises from Spain would lead us to believe that the recent military operations have been decidedly favourable to the Royalists. One of the Republican Generals has been killed hy a random shot : and some contests have taken place in which the partizans of that faction have been worsted. The Regency is daily taking the more and more consistent shape of a Government. 'They. propose raising a loan in Paris; and undoubtedly their security is much better than that of the democrats of Madrid, though the latter are supported by Buonaparte's banker in Paris, and even, won derful to speak ! by an English Bank Director ! [BRITISH PRESS.] We have received New York Papers to the 'l7th last. The malignant fever had abated in that city, but in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New Orleans, it continued to make great ravages. The south-eastern coast of the United States was visited on the 27th of September by a dreadful hurricane. It was felt particularly at Charleston and its vicinity, in which it did great damage. The storm, which was of unprecedented violence, did not subside until the afternoon of the 29th. These Papers abound with accounts of the de predations committed by the pirates in the West Indies. Adverting to this subject, the Havanna!' Government Paper remarks, that up to the year 1822 there were no pirates, except the privateers of Buenos Ayres and Colombia, fitted out in the United States; and that from the island of Cuba not a single man went upon this " infernal business." They allow, however, that boats, armed and manned by criminal adventurers, have sallied forth ; but they assert it to have been done with the regret of the authorities of the island, who will not rest till they have succeeded in exterminating them; that this is due to the commerce and agriculture of the place ; and that the United States will make a common cause, " for, that the Power which supplies the most force towards this important object, will be signalized as the friend of the common felicity." As there is no country more interested in the re pression of this vile system, or more competent to put it down, than England, we hope she will soon signalize herself as that common friend. LAW INTELLIG ENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. G. - - - This being the first day of term, the Judges and King's Counsel were with the Lord Chancellor in Lincoln's Inn Hall until near one o'clock, when his Lordship took his seat, and partially heard one motion. At half-past two the Court rose, it being necessary to have the Hall prepared for the students of law to - dine.—To-morrow at LI was positively fixed for the Portsmouth cause. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. G. This day Michaelmas term begat - a' The Judges took their seats at one o'clock. Mr. CAMPBELL moved for a certiorari to remove an order made by two Justices of the county of Brecon, directing the parish officers of Llanfeu, in that county, to pay 751. for the maintenance of James Parry, a lunatic, in the asylum at He reford, from the 24th of October, 1820, to the 10th of Novem ber, 1822. This was an order, which he contended the Magi strates had no power to make under the statute. By 48 George 111. c. 96, they had only such authority in , two cases—first, where the lunatic had been acquitted of treason or felony, on the ground of mental estrangement—and second, where the overseers applied to them to send the lunatic to the asylum ; neither of which extended to the present case. He therefore applied for:the writ absolutely ; but the matter must conic again before the Court, on a motion to quash the order after its removal. .... The Court granted the writ. After the Court had gone through the bar, without hearing any motion of public interest, they entered on the consideration of cases in the peremptory paper. _ THE KING V. GEORGE JAQUES. Mr. Buo um-lAm moved for the commitment of George Jaques under the 22d George 11. cap. 46, section 11, which enacts, that if any attorney shall permit an unqualified per son to act in his name for the profit of such unqualified person, he shall be struck off the rolls, and the person who shall so have acted in his name may be committed to prison for any period not exceeding a year, at the discretion of the Judges.— In a former term, the Learned Counsel moved against an attor ney named Thackeray, for suffering Jaques to practice in his name, and against Jaques for so practising. The matter was referred to the Master as against Thackeray, and the rule en larged as to present defendant. The Master had made his re port, in pursuance of which Thackeray had been struck off the rolls, and the defendant now attended to show cause why he should not be visited with imprisonment for his share in the offence. _ _ _ _ Mr. Jaques appeared on the floor of the Court, and began to address the Lord Chief Justice, in a tone scarcely audible. In answer to a question from the Bench, he said that be had affi davits which he wished to read. It was then suggested that the affidavits in support of the charge must be also read, and that, as the officer proceeded, the defendant might direct the attention of the Court to his answer on any point materially tending to affect him. Mr. BROUGHAM, after the officer had read part of the affi davit of a person named Lockwood, who deposed that he had acted as clerk to Jaques, observed, that he could save the time of the Court by stating the substantial grounds of the charge. It was alleged that the defendant had practised in the name of Thackeray, receiving and paying all monies, and allowing Thackeray some weekly sum for the use of his name. As it was suggested that a cash-book had been kept, the entries in which might throw some light 'on the transaction, the Court directed that book to be impounded, and, on its production, it appeared that all the entries were made in the name of Jaques. This book had been the chief evidence before the Master against Thackeray. Mr. Justice BAYLEY observed, that the present defendant must not he prejudiced by any thing which was done in the case of Thackeray, to which Mr. BROUGHAM assented. As the book referred to what was not in Court, it was direct ed that the case should stand over till to-morrow, or the first convenient occasion, when its merits may be heard. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 6. The Court sat at one o'clock, and was occupied in determin in.- justifications of bail.—Mr. W. H. Brown was sworn in as Marshal of the Fleet Prison. PREROGATIVE COURT, Nov. 6. IN THE GOODS OF WILLIAM JONES, DECEASED. On the motion of his Majesty's Advocate, letters of adminis tration of all and singular the goods, chattels, credits, and effects of this gentleman, lately deceased, at Llandilo, in the county of Carmarthen, were granted to the nominee of his Majesty. [Our readers will remember that this individual was a man of eccentric habits, and died very recently, possessed of immense wealth, and leaving no relatives behind him. The Crown, in consequence of his intestacy, succeeds to the whole.] TAYLOR AGAINST HIS MAJESTY'S PROCURATOR-GENERAL. In this case Mr. Ruffin, the deceased, had executed a will, dated the 4th of May, 1819: against it,a caveat had been en tered in the usual form by his Majesty's Proctor ; and the same not having been removed, in consequence of which probate cannot pass the seal of this Court, .111 r. James Taylor and Mr. Hind, the two executors named in the instrument, have insti tuted the present proceeding, calling on the Court to permit the will to be proved. By reason of the bankruptcy of these parties, they sue in forma pauperis. As the depositions in chief were not read in Court, the Judge.announcing that he had pursued them at chambers, and as the argument of Counsel is not yet finished, we forbear from any recapitulation of the facts in this case ; and shall at present state generally that the grounds upon which the will is opposed on behalf of the Crown are—the presumed incompetency and unsound mind of the testator, at the time of its execution ; and the imputed undue influence exercised by the parties proponent• in obtaining it. The de ceased appears to have amassed a fortune of about 16,0001., and to have converted this property in the year 1817, when he retired to the Continent, into an annuity of between 1,0001. and 1,1001. a year. He is supposed to have died possessed of about 3,0001. in realty and personalty. His death took place in May, 1819. A considerable mass of evidence has been adduced, consisting of commercial and other letters, and checks in the Bank of England, in the hand-writing of the deceased, for the purpose of proving his perfect mental capability in and about the time of executing the last will and testament. In the correspondence there are, however, other letters, which, to judge from the opening of his Majesty's Advocate, lit is in tended to rely on, with a view of establishing a case of mental imbecility against the deceased at that and former periods. The evidence went generally to show that the deceased was a man of restive and liberal habits, a bachelor, having no chil dren, and residing, when in London, mostly at the Horns' Tavern, Doctors' Commons, and always warmly attached to the two parties in this cause, who were his old and personal friends. The argument will be resumed next Court day. [Should the intestacy of the deceased be established by the sentence of the Court, the Crown, there being no relatives in existence capable of taking the property in distribution, will suc ceed in this case also.] LAURENCE, ATTORNEY OF THOMAS, V. MAUD AND ANOTHER. This case being called, Sir J. NrcifoLL, on Dr. Lushington's representing that Dr. Swahey's illness prevented him from attending in Court, per mitted it to stand over till the Learned Counsel's arrival. The Court at the same time suggested that the pleadings might be very materially abridged. This was an interest cause, and en certain points as to relationship to the deceased, the parties had been very properly put on proof. (These degrees the Judge recapitulated.) There were others into which it was quite un necessary in any event to go into evidence. Dr. ADAMS, on behalf of his client, assented to the suggestion of the Court. Dr. LUSHINGTON had no doubt it would meet the concur rence of Dr. Swabey on his return to town. IN THE GOODS OF SARAH BOND DECEASED. I The KING'S ADVOCATE said that this was a case, about which so much had been told to the public, which had ended in so little. About a dozen caveats had been entered on the part of persons claiming to be relations to the deceased, an only maiden lady, who died in Nay, 1821, at Cambridge-heath, near Hackney. Those caveati had now been every one with drawn. The King had been pleased to appoint the Solicitor- General as his nominee ; and he (the King's Advocate) now prayed that letters of administration to him might pass the seal accordingly. The Court made an order to that effect. (This property, which was originally stated at 100,001. and upwards, does not exceed, we are assured, 20,0001.) • INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 6. Charles Simmons, grocer, whoSe case had stood over from a former day, to affbrd him an opportunity of producing evi dence in proof of an alleged robbery to the extent of 701., to gether with his account-books, which he then stated to have been committed in his house, was again brought up to-day. Roger Taylor, a lodger in the insolvent's house, stated, that on the night when the robbery was said to have taken place, he was alarmed by the insolvent's wife, who knocked at his bed room door, and called him up, saying there were robbers in the house. The witness heard a noise like the rattling of coals, and on going down stairs found the door of the coalshed open, and perceived the traces of a man's foot in some mortar that was in the yard. After the witness's- examination_ was con cluded, The Court proceeded to give judgment, observing that when an insolvent was charged with a fraud, the evidence of it must produce a moral conviction in the mind of the Court before it will act upon it ; for if a doubt exist upon the subject, it is bound to give the insolvent the benefit of that doubt. Now, in the present case, although the Court entertained the strongest possible suspicion that the whole of this story of the robbery was a wicked fabrication to cover a fraudulent concealment of property, yet as that suspicion did not, amount to an absolute conviction, the Court did not feel that it would be justified in inflicting the penalty alloted by the Act for such an offence upon the insolvent. The Court then went over the other cir cumstances of the case, which it stated were so fraught with fraud in every part of it, that were it not for the absence of positive conviction of the fallacy of the robbery story, it would go the utmost extent allowed by the Act in punishing the in solvent. As it was, the judgment of the Court was, that he should not be entitled to any benefit of this Act until he was in custody, at the suit of Messrs. Hall and Miller, for a period of 12 calendar months. Mr. William Busleby, a gentleman whose debts amount to an immense sum, was brought up to be heard on his petition. He was not opposed, but in consequence of the want of service upon some of his creditors, who were not discovered to be cre ditors until Monday last, the case was ordered to stand over to Friday, (on which day the Court will sit to finish the cases in this day's paper,) to allow the insolvent an opportunity of ob taining the consent of those creditors by that time. Mr. POLLOCK, the defendant's Counsel, suggested the names of R. Williams, Esq., M.P., and David Colville, Esq., as fit persons to be appointed assignees ; to which the Court assented. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Nor. 1. Thomas Brajier, a respectable young man, was indicted for assaulting Fordyce, a watchman, in the discharge of his duty. The prosecution was instituted by the Parish Officers of St. Giles's. Mr. ANDREWS for the prosecution, said that this was another instance of the mischievous consequences of that contemptible dramatic piece, which was performing at the Adelphi Theatre, which was continually operating as an excitement to disorderly young men to commit riot and assault on the watchmen at night m the streets. He then stated that the present defendant had interfered with watchmen in the execution of their duty, and afterwards assaulted them. After two or three witnesses had been examined, Mr. ADOLPIIU s addressed the Jury in behalf of the defendant.— He began by asking why the prosecutors had not called the constable of the night, who took the charges in the watch house, and who could have told the whole truth. As to what his Learned Friend had said of the dramatic performance called Tont and Jerry, he differed altogether from him, for it was not only highly entertaining, but was, not calculated to do any injury to public morals. The same objection had been made to " The Beggars' Opera," and " The Beggars' Opera" still held its ascendancy on the stage. He had witnessed the representation of " Torn and Jerry," when it was obvious that the audience consisted principally of families and individuals of rank ghtl respectability, and he was sure they would not go to a performance of such a character as that stated by his Learned Friend. The fact, however, was, that watchmen were aware of the prejudice existing against this piece, and those fellows took advantage of such prejudice, and made unfounded charges against young men for assaults, in hopes of getting money from them. But the play, of " Tom and Jerry," had no connection with the defendant's conduct for he was a sober -correct young man who,' on the night in question was going home with his' wife and who merely interfered to prevent a young woman trom being cruelly treated. The prosecutors failing to substantiate their charge, the Jury found the defendant Not Guilty. FlRE.—Yesterday morning at two o'clock, the inhabitants of Fleet-market were thrown into considerable alarm, owing to a fire which broke out in the extensive premises of Messrs. Shears and Son, coppersmiths, which extend from the west side of the market to Shoe-lane. From the length of space from the two entrances it was impossible for the watchmen to discover the ra vages in the interior, and had it not been for a journeyman baker observing the flames issuing from the premises, there is little doubt but that the whole would have been.at this moment a heap of ruins. The fire raged with fearful impetuosity, but through the timely arrival of the engines, and the indefatigable exertions of the firemen, the damage sustained is comparatively inconsi derable. _ _ Another proof of the mildness of the season : There was discovered, on the farm of Freeland, parish of Inchinnan, the property of Mr. MAT THEW KILLoCLI, a hedge-sparrow's nest; contain ing three new laid eggs, in a hedge in the open fields, on the 26th ult. Also, a bee-hive, in the same parish ) was carrying on work. FOR THE SUN. CURRENCY. MR. EDITOR—Some of our former Ministers, I think Sir R. WALPOLE, was used to liken the landed, as contrasted with the mercantile and manufacturing classes of Society to the sheep and the hog : the one suffering himself to be sheared to the very skin without a murmur, whilst touch but a bristle of the other, and the whole neigh bourhood is instantly alarmed with his cries. In deed, i❑ the nature of things, it can scarcely be otberwise, not that the one feels less acutely than the other, but that he has not the same means of giving vent to his complaints. Cultivators of the land of all descriptions, landlords, tenants, and labourers, scattered over the whole surface of the Country, have no means of assembling together but at the times of assize, held only twice in the year, or at public County Meetings called to gether for some specific object. There their complaints begin, and end, except in the time of Parliament, when they load its tables with useless and unregarded petitions, which either lie there wholly neglected, or give rise to debates which always terminate in a ministerial majority. The mercantile and manufacturing interests, on the other hand, lie as it were wedged together in close contact, with the frequent opportunity of meet ing, and combining for the discussion of every matter in which their interests are committed, even in the smallest degree, and peremptorily calling for redress of any, the least, grievance to which they are subjected. Impose but the most trivial tax on any article, the cry of the supposed aggrieved is instantly heard and com municates the contagion from one class to another. At the present moment, when every landed proprietor in the kingdom says in very plain and intelligent terms, we have been for some years, and are now living on our capitals, which are daily and hourly exhaust ing, compelled, as we are, to sell our produce at less than a moiety of what it costs us to raise it, not only is a deaf ear turned to those natural, and but too-well founded complaints, but there are other classes sufficiently weak and insolent, even to exult over our distresses, rejoice at the lowness of those prices by which they are them selves immediately benefited, and only say for our consolation, that our products are too abun dant, overstock the market, and cause that de pression of prices of which we complain, and that when things are equalized, former prices will re turn, and every just cause of complaint be wholly done away. This is at the best but cold comfort to millions of starving individuals, and those the strongest and in all respects by far the most use ful members of the whole community, without whose assistance, none of the other classes could subsist for a single year, but the whole of the finest and most fertile country in .Europe must become a desolate waste, dependent on other nations for the bread we eat. Should this situa tion of things originate in natural causes, it would be our duty, as men, quietly and contentedly to acquiesce in them. Bad seasons, desolation by earthquakes, or the irruption of enemies on our territory, are all in the chapter of accidents, and must and would be submitted to in tacit acquies cence, but resulting from erroneous principles of Government, it is alike our duty, and our inte rest to complain, and make our grievances know❑ to those who alone are able to relieve them. It has been shown, beyond the power of reasonable contradiction, that the sudden and premature change of Currency, and that, almost alone and exclusively, has occasioned this sudden and de structive depression of prices, and it is perfectly futile to talk of any change in those prices with out a total chance of system, and an immediate reversion to that under which, labouring under all our other difficulties we have weathered every internal and external storm for upwards of 20 years. To refer it to a glut of markets is mere idle nonsense not worthy of a moments atten tion Every farmer living upon his capital must do the best he can, till that capital shall have been fairly exhausted, and himself and family consigned to the poor-house, or the more hospit able shores of some Foreign country. In the interim, be the prices ever so low, he must bring his saleable articles to market, and cause that temporary glut which is used as an argument of repletion, and the existence of a more than ordi nary plenty, which in fact does not exist. Within a very short period those exulting mercantile and manufacturing classes will perceive their gross error in the loss of their home markets, greater than all their Foreign ones combined, and what will be felt more severely than all the rest, by our monied and funded men, in a defalcation a that public revenue without which that wealth becomes merely nominal, existing only in paper, worth no more than the material on which the amount payable is inscribed. Independently of the greater difficulties in making these com plaints known, than are imposed, on the other classes of the community, the Land ed Proprietors have further to combat with the immediate interests of different very numerous, very opulent, and very powerful classes of the great community. Every monied and funded proprietor, every placeman, and pensioner of the State, every individual possessing a fixed income, not derived from landed property, in short, every consumer either of the necessaries or the luxuries of life, all naturally rejoice in that depression of prices which compels the vender to sell at half or less than half of what it costs him, to raise the articles he is now obliged to bring to market, or submit to the miseries of a jail, no other alterna tive being open to him. All these classes com bined, not only outnumber the proprietors of the land, but from local and other peculiar circum stances, as was above observed, possess the ad vantage of being better heard, and resting al ways on the plausible ground of saner, safer, and more substantial currency, which no man of com mon understanding ever pretended to deny. But, let it be considered, that such sane and substan tial currency was of necessity abandoned by Mr. Pitt, when he clearly saw that a war of such ex tent and expenditure, could not be carried on without that abandonment, and who must have seen with equal clearness, that after a debt of six kundred millions sterling had been incur red in the paper substituted for the precious metals, a reversion to that latter one ee jd never be effected without the total ruin of the kingdom. The very attempt has already on hinged every subsisting contract, wheth er be : tween Government and subject, or between /0d1" vidual and individual, and a much further obsti nate perseverance in the same system cann ot bet complete the ruin already but too universally spread, and pin the basket of all our mise ries within a period too little distant to be coo templated without dismay by every reflecting mind in the kingdom. It would seem extraordi nary that in all the considerations of the Com . " ( mittee appointed to report upon the distresses n.: the times, their causes, and their remedies, it should have escaped them to state the injustic e ' as well as the impossibility of paying the in terest of 600 millions of taxes, imposed under on e cur "' rency, in another of a very different description.; of what value can the result of their deep c ons " deration prove, with the .omission of that alest material of all circumstances ? Will it sinc e for the satisfaction of any reflecting and iruPa r. tial mind that, they tell us, our markets are over' stocked, that demand and supply necessarily ac' company each other, and that nothing but Pa: deuce to await their equalization must be oil; consolatory remedy ! 'Why did they not tell of that the interest of so enormous a weight e taxes granted under an artificial paper cur rency !.. could only be paid in the same, and that to at' tempt it in one of far superior value must nec es ; sarily not only lower prices, b u t even euda e g e o the safety of the Kingdom. This had he ee he i r real illumination tending to place things in t r o f proper point of vi ew , w h ere as what e- , e s have said only tended to keep the cat us of the evil out of sight, and delu de by prospects which they must h a ve known• cn- ho never be realized ?
