THE LONDON JOURNALS. XTRACTS . •FROM THE "DAILY' MORNING PAPERS, June 19, 1522: [MORNING POST.] Agreeing, as• we do, in the general opinion re specting free trade, expressed by the Earl of Liverpool, on the New Navigation Bills, on Monday evenirg, and believing that by repeal ing so many cnsolete statutes, it will bring pre cision into an important branch of our commer cial law, ve would take leave, nevertheless, to make an observation on the usual tendency of all measures like the one in question. In legis lating, where present interests are involved, and where the interference is, not to remove sorre actual and . positive injury suffered by those interests, it would, perhaps, be advis ;;ble to fix a distant period for the opera tion of the new enactment. The natural .course of all mercantile affairs in particular, is to adapt themselves to existing regula tions. Hence each individual in trade directs his industry, in conformity with those regula; tions, so as to render them beneficial to himself - and his general business profitable. Now it is obvious that whatever suddenly disturbs the ha bitual order of- proceeding thus acquired, must in a variety of ways be prejudicial to each indi vidual concerned. Established connections in different quarters of the globe are shaken, per haps disjointed,. and that derangement of settled plans and intercourse takes place which may have been the work of years to adjust and con solidate. Nor is it easy to calculate what the amount of the disorder thus caused may be; for in commerce the ramification of interests is most ex-. tended and intricate. A system therefore which in tl - eory cannot be objected to, and which, were so chty to be first established, would be best, may wider the foregoing circumstances produce very serious injury. The balance of advantage from ics adoption should greatly preponderate; in the estimation of those most concerned, beforq we think, it ought to be enforced ; or, if not, time stould be given to foresee and prepare for the change; and, let it be observed, that in every Improvement,, change is implied, and that change is in itself an admitted evil. We do not wish to oPplse these considerations to the New Naviga tion gills, but we hope they have been duly at tended t. O by the Board of Trade; for it must be confessed the Mercantile part of the community, with some reason, is not much in favour of the measures. [BRITISH PRESS.] A new series of papers relating to the state of Ireland, transmitted by Alarquis Wellesley, have been printed by order of the House of Commons. They consist of dispatches from his Excellency, enclosing communications from Magistrates and Commanding Officers in different counties, of various dates, from the 16th February to the '22d May.—The latter class is a recital of the various outrages which have taken place in the interval in the disturbed districts, the most in teresting and important of which have been com municated through the medium of the Irish Papers. The dispatches of his Excellency contain his views of the country, and dwell upon the good effects of the strong powers committed to his hands. Great credit is claimed for the operation of the Special Commissions, and the propriety and ability with which they have been conducted ; but upon the insurrection Act, above all, the greatest praise, is bestowed. It is superfluous to add, that these papers are published for the purpose of laying a ground for the renewal of this Act. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] We alluded the other day to the prosperity and contentedness of the people of Tuscany, Cre ated by one man, the Archduke Leopold. This garden of Italy was, however, a perfect wilder ness before the accession of Leopold. Bishop Burnet, both an intelligent and honest traveller, speaks of it as a perfect wilderness in his time. " As one goes over Tuscany (he says) it ap pears so dispeopled that one cannot but won der to find a country that hath been a scene of so much action and so many wars, now for saken and so poor, that in many places the soil is quite neglected for want of hands to culti vate it ; and in other places, where there are more people, they look so poor, and their houses are such miserable ruins, that it is scarce account able how there could be so much poverty in so rich a country, which is all over full of beggars." We know how this change was effected. The means were simple enough, though we think the Lord Chancellor would hardly have stumbled on them ; for Leopold had very different notions' of justice and property from his notions. He certainly did not conceive that the denial of jus tice to the poor was the way to improve them. [MORNING HERALD.] We last night received Sunday's Paris Papers by express. Their contents are remarkably un important. They contain no domestic intelli gence worth notice. In the Chamber of Depu ties no decisive question has yet come under con sideration during the actual Session. Complaints are made of the oppressive partiality with which passports are granted by the French police. The chief matter of complaint is, that in France all persons are obliged to be provided with rigid documents—and a Commission of inquiry has decided that all lodging keepers and others shall make a return to the Magistrates of any stranger passing a night in their houses.—The latest in, telligence from Germany is of no importance. There is not a word that throws any light on the affairs of the East. [THE TIMES.] Ministers have supported their demand of a renewal of the Insurrection Act in Ireland by a communication to Parliament of a copious list of documents, transmitted to Mr. Peel by the Lord- Lieutenant. These Papers contain a long series of reports from judicial persons, Magistrates and others, descriptive of the state of the country; which, so far as regards the open perpetration of crime, is said to be, on the whole, improving ; but dreadful must have been the antecedent state of a kingdom, when such pictures, drawn upon the spot, and not fairly chargeable, as we sup pose, with infidelity y , are taken in evidence of its improved condition. As most of the facts in this gloomy catalogne, which embraces a period of about three months, from the middle of February to the middle of May, have already appeared in some shape or other before the public, we shall not recapitulate them now. Notwithstanding the cessation of their movements in the open field, the insurgents have not refrained from the frequent commission of that class of out rageswhich_ indicate the continuance of a stub born and hostile spirit. Violence and terror have been employed systematically, although, it is confessed, with some abatement of their previous activity, not in Munster alone, but throughout all the provinces, as means of ren dering three descriptions of persons subservient to the will of the multitude—that landlords might be forced to reduce their rents—in-coming tenants to abandon their farms—and witnesses for the Crown to withhold their information, on pain of death, or some barbarous bodily outrage. [NEw TIMES.] The Paris Papers of Saturday give the debates of the Two Chambers on the preceding day, but they afford nothing of particular interest to the English reader. The preliminary business of the Session has been conducted with a degree of rapidity which surprises equally the Liberals and the Royalists. This is owing to the good understanding which prevails between the Ministers and the majority of the two Cham bers, and which has every appearance of being likely to continue throughout the Ses sion. At length France happily sees a Re presentative Government proceeding on prin ciples calculated for its own support. The mon strous and absurd system of vacillation between loStalty and treason is at an end. It is true that the Ministers cannot adopt severe measures, nor do they seem in the least inclined to do so, against the enemies of the Bourbons. They adopt the wiser mode of letting those enemies dwindle into insignificance. It might be desirable not to leave quite so many of those gentry in possession of important places under the Go vernment ; but it must be remembered that the Ministers themselves are to a certain degree under the coniroul of the Saloons in Paris, where the best company assemble, and discuss all political measures. Among this best com pany all political characters ) except the very worst, find patrons and defenders. The Ladies especially are loud in their outcries if any worthy personage of their acquaintance, who has been in place for the last ten years, under all the successive Governments, happens to be removed for shewing hostility to his superiors. Other Ministers did not regard those otacries,or perhaps took care to prevent them ; but it is thought that a Royalist Government must proceed less despotic, and perhaps in the end it may be the more secure. PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. [From the Bury Gazette.l PITT CLuns.----The enemies of Virr principles will, we have no doubt, be enraged at the display made at the recent meetings of sterling loyalty, and sound constitutional opinions ; but their rage will be in vain, they may as well at tempt to stem the current of the ocean, as to cheek the progress of that system which saved England from revolution ; which preserved to our Monarch his throne, and to our Nobles. their titles and estates; which protected the revenues of the church from pillage, and the property of the landholder from spolia tion ; under the influence of which we have lived in peace, and enjoyed the fruits of our honest industry, without any fear of being deprived of them by the rude hands of the spoiler ; and under whoSe influence we still hope to live, in the enjoyment of peace and plenty, and of every blessing which Providence can bestow on a grateful and contented nation. It is folly to talk of the Pitt system as having produced the load of debt and taxes which the nation has yet to bear. That load is main ly to be attributed to the opponents of the " Pilot who weathered the storm ;" to those men who supported the friends of Revolution both at home and abroad ; who sought to paralize all the efforts of Government by their unprincipled opposition ; and who encouraged the enemy of their country to perseverance in his wicked machinations against us, by disparaging our resources, and magnifying the difficulties against which we had to contend. It is to these men, and to their system, that we must attribute what we have lost ; whilst to Pitt and his principles we are indebted for all we have saved. Whilst we are on the subject of Pitt dinners, we may be permitted to allude to the contrast which is afforded at those meetings to the radical assemblages, in the manner in which the health of the King is honoured. At the meeting of Sir Francis Burdett's friends in Westminster, a few weeks since, after the health of the Sovereign, the song of " Rule Britannia" was sung, instead of that inspiring and animating anthem, " God save the King." At other meetings his Ma jesty's health is drunk frequently in silence; sometimes only as the " head of the Constitutional Government;" and in every instance with marks of studied insult and contempt. Look at the contrast. The disciples of Pitt always receive the name of their King with enthusiasm ; and we will venture to assert that, amidst the host ofloyal hearts who joined in the cry of" God save him," at the Pitt festivals, there was not one but would willingly devote both life and fortune to his service. The Radi cals and Whigs, however, all profess to be loyal —aye, and they are all, too, honourable men. But how do they show their loyalty ? By constantly endeavouring to bring the kingly go vernment into contempt; by propagating, incessantly, the most gross and scurrilous calumnies, ' relative to the pursuits and habits, and acts, of the Monarch ; and by doing their best to excite suspicion against, and bring down the public odium upon, those generous spirited men, who, with true and genuine loyalty, are always ready to stand in the gap in defence of good government; and to come forward in support of the just pre rogatives of the Monarch, as well as of the rights of the people. With the disciples of Pitt, the rights and privileges of both prince and people are alike respected ; with the liberals, the latter are every thing, and the former nothing, whilst they are attaining the summit of power; but, once placed in possession of the object of their ambition, and both prince and people are then made the'mere slaves of their imperious will. History shows, that such has been the conduct of demagogues in former days ; and there is nothing in the character of our modern disturbers of the public peace to warrant us in believing that they would prove an exception to the general rule. It is by maintaining the integrity of the Pitt System, that continued prosperity, and hap piness, and peace, and plenty, can be expected to shed their blessings on the land in which we live. That system is the only guarantee for the rights and privileges of all classes of the people. Our opponents would violate the possessions of the church ; they would rob the fundholder of his patrimony : and were this to be permitted, what security would there be fbr any other spcies of property ?—A portion of them would gladly deprive both nobles and clergy of their privileges ; and how long would the privileges of other classes be kept inviolate ? Let us, then, adhere to the system-which has raised our coun try to glory and honour; and tell our opponents, that;" the King we hOnour is his people's choice; the laws , we reverence are our brave fathers' legacy :" that we want no‘change,. and, least of all, the change that they, would bring us."' . FOR THE SUN. HERESY. EDITOR-4T. PETER SUS," there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies," and though the word of inspi ration must be fulfilled in this is in every other cir cumstance, and his brother apostle declares most positively that heresies there must be among us, yet it is the duty of any of his successors slim are appointed by their office to take special care of the Church, imitating his spirited example, to establish, as far as lieth in them, unity of doctrine, at least among those who profess to be within its pale. It is against these chiefly that St. PETER may be supposed to warn us, as the worst of all foes, of our own household, that privily enter into our bosom, and are the more able from their in timacy to inflict the wound, and the wound itself is the more fatal, as the psalmist so beautifully complains, in a style of pathos without a parallel : 44 It was not an open enemy that did me this dishonour, for then I could have borne it, but it was even thou, my companion, my guide, and mine own familiar friend ; we took sweet counsel together and walked in the house of God as friends." The kiss of Jun.ts was more pernicious to his master than whole legions of his open adversaries that conspired against his life—who, but for the treachery of one of his own friends, would have had no power at all over him ; his offence must needs come, and CHRIST took no pains to prevent what was so necessary to fulfil the word; but he who has now the care of his Church is bound to preserve it from all heresies ; for though it is declared in the word, that such men must be among us, yet it is also as expressly declared, that the Church is founded on a rock and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. It Is the bounded duty of the Minister to perform his part that the word may be fulfilled, and prevent such false teachers from entering the Church, who would privily bring in what he considers damnable heresies—and to at tack them in the very threshold ; but if once they penetrate the sanctuary it would be difficult to expel them from it, or impossible at least to prevent the mischief which all such heretics ever have done, and must do, wherever and whensoever they are suffered to prevail.— To attacks of open hostility from the infidel or the profane, we must, with all our care, as long as there is profaneness and infidelity in the world, be of necessity exposed ; but it is our own fault if we suffer the hypocrite privily to bring in his dam nable heresy, and give him the opportunity he so anxiously watches, under our own hand and our own seal, under the veil of submission to articles interpreted in a sense quite contrary to what they who impose them require, of sliding into its bosom by degrees, and making such innova tions as the Partizans for the New Birth and New Lights would rejoice to see triumphant over the sound and sober doctrines of our pure and reformed Church. Unhappily for that Church, there are many of these enthusiasts already in its bosom, " that have crept in unawares ;" and if others are not prevented from coming in, and others who are there are not most strictly and carefully watched by our appointed watchmen, who are placed on a height on purpose to observe every approach of the enemy, they may creep on till they accu mulate in such crowds upon us as to do tremendous mischief, though they never, with all their zeal, can destroy that Church against which the gates of hell itself shall not prevail. Among the rest of their schemes to this malignant purpose, we hear, in a Paper renowned at least for penetra tion and elaborate research, what however I believe is universally acknowledged to be a fact, and ought to be generally circulated, in order to make its just, impression, and arouse all those who, like yourselves, have the least regard for the safety of the Church, (and such a regard as to be called the Bisnor's Paper*) and long may you so continue, and become in your turn patronised by the Bishops and Universities together, that there exists a species of select vestry, composed of the leading sectarians, com monly called Evangelical, who have the entire ma nagement of an immense fund, collected through the means of their emissaries from every part of the kingdom by gathering weekly a penny from all the families who attend their preachers. The directors of this fund apply a portion of it to pur chase any presentations below a certain value which come into the market; and as they are anxious to increase their temporal power, usually outbid others who wish to purchase, and then place in these livings individuals who are of the same sect, and thus disseminate their doctrines, which are in opposition to those of the Establish ed Church. With these doctrines we have nothing to do —let them enjoy them to their hearts' content in their own conventicles,—but let them not attempt to overthrow our Church, for the purpose of ma king them universal. Neither should they be permitted to make the Church itself a cloak for their hostile intentions, by forming within its pale a body of men who profess, and sedulously dis seminate the same doctrines as themselves, and hold regular communication with those very sec tarians who are openly arrayed against our Ec clesiastical Establishment. * THE SUN. SHOCKING ACCIDENT.--Sunday evening, Joseph Clifton, aged 19, apprentice to a glass-cutter in Fetter-lane, stripped off his clothes to bathe in the Surrey Canal ; on diving in his head struck against a stone at bottom, and he never rose again. William Jones, a youth about his own age, whose father works at Mr. Wilkinson's, gun-maker, on Ludgate-hill, instantly jumped in to the assistance of his companion, and he also shared the fate of his friend. The father of the latter, in endeavouring to save their lives, had nearly lost his own. The bodies now lie at the Plough for an Inquest. A thatched cottage, at Wedmore, in Somer. setshire, was last week burnt to the ground, from the intense heat of the Pun upon the glass VViP dows igniting the thatcb.. THE ARMY. The Egham Yeomanry Cavalry had the honour of escorting his MAJESTY from his Cottage, in Windsor Great Park, on Tuesday evening last. His MAJESTY was pleased to express his appro bation of their soldier-like appearance. On Monday last a troop of the 14th Light Dragoons marched into Coventry. The other four troops are to be stationed at Birmingham, Nottingham, and Abergavenny. The Cobham Yeomanry Cavalry are invited to breakfast at Cobham Hall, Kent, on Wednesday the 26th inst. On the Friday following, they will assemble for exercise in the Park. On Tuesday the 2d of July, they are invited to break fast at Rochester, with their respective Captains, and on that and the day following, will exercise with other troops on Chatham Lines. Coax, JUNE 15.—This day the Imokilly Yeomanry, under the command of the Marquis of THOMOND, the Douglas Yeomanry, com manded by Lieutenant Newenham, and the Riverstown Yeomanry, commanded by Captain H. Townsend, were minutely inspected in the exercise field, near the Barracks, by Major-Ge neral Sir John Lambert, in the presence of Major General Sir John Elley. The Generals entered the field about half-past one o'clock, and were received with a general salute. They then passed the line in front and rear, and on taking their station in front of the line, the three corps broke into open column, passed into ordinary time, then passed in file, and forming again in open co lumn passed in quick time. They afterwards advanced in line, and the inspection concluded with a general salute. Sir John Lambert, having called together the different Commanders of Corps, was pleased to express his satisfaction at their military appearance and state of discipline. The fineness of the day, and the novelty of the scene, attracted a great concourse of spectators. From the LONDON GAZETTE of June 18.

More than once during the period of their imprisonment the owners have been severally removed by Habeas to the King's Bench, and each time they were regularly at tended by their faithful friends, which, during their sojourn there, remained as near to them as possible. One of them, in particular, is never absent many minutes together from the gates of the Fleet, nor has it been for nearly three years —the duration of its unfortunate master's incar ceration. A man was crossing a small rivulet near Con niston Lane, and observed a toad sitting on the edge, which, on seeing him fell into the water, where was a large eel, which immediately gave it battle. " It seized it by one of the hind legs," says the man, "and shook it as a terrier would a rat." Still the toad defended itself with great vigour, till the eel acyally severed its leg from its body, which it swallowed, and again returned to the charge, but with great care evaded coming in front, till espying one of the oad's unguarded moments, it seized the remain ing hind legs which soon shared the fate of the former. There being no more prominent parts behind,, or any other part to seize upon, without rushing into the very heat of the battle, the poor toad was suffered to escape with the loss of two of its most useful : members. ---(Westmoreland Ga zette) LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 18. THE ICING V. COLLINS AND OTHERS. Our readers will recollect that this was an indictment agains r Mr. Collins, Sir N. Conant, and, Mr. Mills, for having col; ru Pt - ly refused to license the house kept by James Meek. J. Jury found the defendants guilty. Mr. SCARLETT was now heard against the rule obtained 03 a former day for a new trial. The COURT postponed going farther into the case, as M r ' Justice BAYLE r was obliged to leave the Court at two o'clock, REX V. CHARLES KNATCIIBULL ESQ. AND OTHERS. This was an indictment aga i ns t 'Mr. Charles Knatchbul l, brother of the Member for Kent, and Messrs. Fowell and Par tridge, solicitors, for a conspiracy to obtain credit for the de fendant, Knatchbull, from certain tradesmen, by falsely repre senting that Mr. Knatchbull had not b een pa id a legacy of 3001. bequeathed to him under his father's will, whereas, ' g truth and in fact, the legacy had been paid at the time of th e false pretence. The defendants were all found guilty at the London adjourned Sittings after last Hilary Term, and in Eas ter Term a rule, nisi, having been obtained for a new trial, Mr. GURNEY and Mr. ADOLPHUS were heard to-d 3 Y against the Rule, but owing to the lateness of th e h ou r at which their argument was finished, the further hearing of the case wo•' postponed until to.morrow. HABEAS CORPUS. Mr. CAMPBELL moved for a Habeas Corpus, to bring up th e body of Thomas James, from Carmarthen Gaol, to which he had been committed by two W e l s h J ust i ces, f or an alleged can' tempt in imputing to them that thCy had acted with partialitY towards him in a matter in which he was summoned before them, touching the payment of a sum of 3s. which had been paid on his account to the Clerk of the Peace, by his predeces sor, in the office of High Constable of the Itundred of Llau; dovery. The circumstances stated by the Learned Counsel disclosed a very extraordinary exercise of extra judicial au thority, but upon an ex parte statement, we forbear entering into particulars. The defendant had been committed to the County Gaol for the contempt, until discharged by due course of law. The COURT, under the circumstances stated, immediately granted the writ. THE RING V. THE CARLILES. Mr. EvaNs moved for a rulQ to shew cause why the gaole r of Gloucester gaol should not allow the defendants, who are prisoners in his custody, the same air, exercise, and indulgence as he allowed to other prisoners. t• The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said unless Mr. Evans made his motion as the ground of a criminal proceeding, the Court would not interfere. The Legislature had provided for the re gelation of prisons, and unless there was barbarous and cruel behaviour on the part of the gaoler, the Court could not make any order. Mr. EVANS could not say there was any charge of cruelty: The parties deposed in their affidavits that they were treat different from others in the prison. The COURT decided that they could not attend to the aP' plication without some case was cited to justify their inter ference. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET.—SANGUINArtY ASSAULT.--A decently dressed elderly Iri s h- woman , name d M ary K elly, was b ro ug before THONAs HALLS, Esq. yesterday, charged with havn?g stabbed Edward D'Urfey in such a manner that his life iS 10 imminent danger. Edward D'Urfey is a mender of pots and kettles, residing in Carrier-street, St. Gil es ' s ; an d i t appeare d by the evi c i dence of Margaret, hi s w if e , t h at s h e an d h er hus b an d had been at an " afternoon party," on Monday last, and they were there told that M rs . Kelly had spoken ill words 0 D'Urfey's brother-in-law. D'Urfey was very angry, 3 , 114 when the party brok e u p h e repa i re d to t h e house of 303' Kelly, in Church-street, to demand an explanation—the it nour of his brother-in-law, as he said, being as dear to lII' as his own. His wife accompanied him, and they found MP' Kelly at home; but D'Urfey had no sooner opened his mouth on the business he came about, than Mrs. Kelly told him t o leave her place or she would stab him ; and as she said thila she seized a knife from th e t a bl e , as if w i t h t h e d eterm i n ation of fulfilling her threat. His wife became alarmed, and foreg o him out of the room, but he s p rung f rom her arms, and aga irl entered. the room ; and Mrs. K e lly i ns t an tl y rus h e d forwaw i and stabbed him in the front of his shoulder. The wound she inflicted was nearly two inches in depth' and divided one of the principal arteries. Some people led hil l : away to a neighbouring surgeon ' s , w h o recommen d e d this, he should be instantly convey e d t o th e Middl esex Hospital, an(' he was accordingly conveyed thither. Mrs. Kelly, m her defence, stoutly denied having wounded him, and accused him of great violence towards herself and he r husband. The officers produced a large clasp knife covered With blood, which D'Urfey's wife declared she had taken from the wound at the moment when her husband, having received the blow, staggered and fell upon a large chest which stood in the room. They also produced a certificate from Mr. Sweet; man, house-surgeon of the Middl esex H osp i ta l , stat ing tha,, it was hoped the wound e d man might eventually recover, P o .' that it was impossible to g i ve a decided opinion on the subjec t at present. Under these circumstances the Magistrate committed the pri soner for further examination on Friday next. Two of the three women— or ra th er two o f t h e t h r ee sit 4 ruffians, committed by Sir Richard Birnie, for cruelly assaiii . i t ' ing and robbing a man in D rur y-l ane on S un d ay morn ingi; are the same who were impli ca t e d i n th row i ng a man ou t of window in Charles-street, Drury-lane, some months ago. Last week two females died in Strathaven the prime of their age. They were very WU: mate before marriag e ; th e y were marr i e d a bol' the same time; their husbands were brother s ' they both died within 25 minutes of each other, were carried under the same pall, and laid in th e same grave.
