THE LONDON JOURNALS. EXTRACTS FROM. THE 1) XII, Y 14.1011.NrNG PAPERS, JII7IC '27, 182. [NEW TIMES :2 The advices from Constantinople are of no im portance. It is indeed said, in a letter from that City, that the Porte continued to refuse the con cessions required by Russia, in the place of which it only held out vague and general pro fessions.; but this is mere rumour or invention. — The intelligence from Spain is, as usual, well calculated to exhibit the consequences of revolu tion and anarchy. The country continues to be disturbed and agitated by bands of mal-contents, who, we observe, are now styled " Royalist In surgents." Armed bodies, amounting altogether to nearly four thousand men, are enumerated in One 'of the Spanish 'papers. The Revolutionists 'of Spain, in imitation, probably, •of those of France, have imputed many plots to the Royalists, which have turned out either never to have existed, or to have-been the subjects of gross exaggeration. An instance of this kind his recently occurred at Madrid. It was said, that on the 10th inst. the Political Chief re ceived information of two meetings of conspi rators in the Capital to arrange a rising in New Castile'and La , Mancha, and a march to Aran juez and Madrid to obtain possession of the - King, and annul the acts of the Cortes. On a search, however, of the two alleged places of meeting, two or three obscure persons were seized at one, and not an individual at the other. The persons arrested were fo be immediately put 'upon their trial in order to gratify the commit • iteros, who were extremely clamorous, and de clared that the' patriots, were not in safety at Madrid, and that the Cortes must remove to the Isle of Leon. [TUE TIMES.] We left it, a few days ago, to the benevolent feelings of our readers to decide whether, upon a brief statement of the facts connected with the,' lieart rending situation of the Irish poor, which statement we laid before the public in the words of the Committee at the City of London Tavern, it had not become the duty of every human being in the country, who had more than a sufficiency for his own wants, to add yet something to each former ,mite contributed towards he relief of their starving fellow-creatures in Ireland. The ivadequacy of the charitable fund to its objects was, 'on the slightest calculation, evident to those 'Who would be at the trouble of making one ; but the Committee have sittee with great pro priety circulated printed details of 'their dis bursements, a satisfactory voucher that if the great end of the charity kid not yet been com pletely or nearly accomplished, the cause was in the intrinsic magnitude of the evil itself, and not in any improvidence on the part of those who had undertaken the administration of the funds for removing it. The list of remittances, of which a copy has been sent to us, is drawn up in a . clear and simple form, containing in one co lumn the name of the county and town, barony, parish, village, &c., to which relief has been forwarded ; in' a second column, the names of the parties, Noblemen, Bishops, Clergy, or Gentry,. who have been entrusted with the dis fribution•of the bounty ;- in a third., the date of the remittance and in a fourth, its amount. The, counties, to- whiCh the most ample proofs of the kind and , benefice/it nature of our countrymen have been extended are—Clare, 11,0951.; Cork, 11,6-101.; Kerry, 6,2504 ; Mayo and Galway, 19,6051.;Limerick, 5,2801.; Leitrim, 1,9501. ; Roscommon, 4,1801.; - Sligo, 2,5301.; and Tipperary, 1,4251. ; besides which, there have been remitted to seve ral other counties, where the distress is compa ratively lighter, sundry small sums. We see with pleasure the unwearied activity of the Archbishop of Tuam and other clergymen of both persuasions, in dispensing the stores of Eng lish charity to their famished people. It is a pity that such men should be exposed to the misery of seeing that the success of their pious exertions is but transient, and - to the dreadful consciousness that if the tide of charity should now cease to flow, the unhappy beings whom they have already rescued from the pangs of death, have'been but tantalized by a momentary suspension of their sufferingS, soon to relapse, and undergo a second mortal agony. [BRITISH PRESS.] The Marriage Act Amendment Bill was further discussed last night in the House of Lords. The retrospective clause was carried, and an amend 'moat proposed by Lord Liverpool, that it should not extend to any marriages respecting the va lidity of - which a suit was now depending, was negatived by a majority of 39. Last night Mr. Creevey submitted a series of resolutions, the object of which was to repeal the present Pension Bill. The Hon. Member stated himself that he had no idea his proposition should be acceded to of inserting these resolu tions on the Journals, but so strongly did he feel the injustice of the Pension Act, in the present distressed state of the country, that one day it must be repealed. The motion was opposed by Y'jtr. Bankes, who moved that they should pass to the other orders of the day._ Mr. Creevey took rile sense of the house on the first, and moved the-others as amendments in their several. orders. A division then took place, when there appeared, for Talr. Bankes's Amendment, 143—For the ekiginal Motion, 42—Majority 101.—(/bid.) [MORNING CHRONICLE.] Mr. Abercrombie gave notice that he should this day move for the production of all the pro ceedings in the civil action between Borthwick Alexander, and copies of all the precognitions aial informations on which the criminal prosecu tion,against the former was founded. We shall thus have a complete development of this. most appalling business. The various actors will be -made to pass in review before us. Of one of the coadjutors of the Lt , arned Lord, something has already transpired ; and it is well to be a little better acquainted with him, as when his Lordship shall at length receive,in the accustomed promotion to the Bench,the reward of his exertions for the pub lic good,this distinguished individual will in all pro bability be fixed on as his successor. We believe the whole Parliamentary History of this Country furnishes no instance of a Judicial Officer offer ing such a shock to all our notions of justice and propriety as is exemplified in the case of the Lord Advocate. The Officer who alone can commence criminal prosecutions, is found at the head of institutions in different parts of the coun , try, set on foot for the sole and avowed purpose of violating the laws. He is found in con nection with systematic libellers, coolly pre pared to add murder to the catalogue of their outrages. -We have his name to the very charters of these corporations of infamy.— The thing has been brought home to him in the clearest and most convincinc , manner. The only thing that looked at all like justification in his speech,—and a singular justification it was, no doubt, for the Grand Conservator of the Peace of a Nation,—was that the Press of Scot land promulgated the most licentious opinions, and every effort was resorted to for the purpose of inflaming and stirring up the minds of the people,—that is, the spirit of the Press of Scot land was bad, and it was therefore determined to exhibit an example of• a still worse spirit. This to be sure is one way of bringing about Refor mation, [MORNING POST.] Mr. Michael Angelo Taylors Motion respect ing the Court,of Chancery and the High Appel lant Jurisdiction in the House of Lords, was last night at length disposed of for the present Ses sion. He moved that the House should resolve itself into a Committee, to take into considera tion the Act passed in his late Majesty's reign, authorizing the appointment of a Vice Chan cellor ; upon which the House divided—ayes 51, noes 108. It is unnecessary for us to follow the Hon. and Learned Member through the various details and observations in which he indulged, and the more so, because it appears to us doubt ful whether the above minority exactly expresses the relative number of opinions concurring in Mr. Taylor's object; The honourable Gentleman very punctually votes with his party on all sub jects, and as there can be little danger of his Chancery speculation being realized, to support it once a year is but a reasonable return. In coming to this conclusion we are solely guided by the nature of the proposition which was last night submitted to the house, and our respect for the good sense of Parliament. The Office of Vice-Chancellor was created in consequence of the universally admitted fact that one individual, - however highly gifted and qua lified, was physically incapable of getting through the immense and accumulating mass of' public business which in the progress of this great Empire has devolved upon the Lord High Chancellor. The mere statement of this last mentioned fact immediately suggests the seriousness of the evil and the necessity of at once correcting it. With the exception of the Lord Chancellor's share in conducting the Govern ment, and presiding in the House of Peers, his entire business is Judicial, and that of a descrip tion superior to all other Judicial business of the Nation. Whatever, therefore, tended to obstruct this most important function, was a grievous injury to the Public ; and accordingly, in order to prevent delay in the Administration of Justice, the 'office of Vice Chancellor was created.— The result has been, that the facility thus afford ed for suitors, and the consequent saving of delay and expellee,- has greatly increased the general business of the Court of Chancery ; until both the Lord-Chancellor and the Vice-Chancellor are now incessantly employed in the public service. Yet, upon this very ground, Mr. Taylor proposed last night to abolish the office of Vice-Chancellor, and to re-model the Court upon some new principle of his own ! We need scarcely add how averse any Parliament' must be to such a measure. For ample particu lars, proving the efficiency and the utility of the I Vice-Chancellor's Office, we refer to the speech of the Attorney-General, founded on the re turns made to the house of Commons. To the same source we would also direct our readers for a just estimate of the extraordinary and pro found talents of the Noble and Learned Lord who now holds the Great Seal., The exalted opinion entertained by the whole people of the United Kingdom of those talents, is, in short, the great cause of that accumulation of business in his Lordship's Court, which is alone complained of. Under these circumstances, so far from soliciting a change in its- constitution, we must rather ex press a fervent hope that no event may occur for a long period of time in anywise calculated to derange its present' salutaey operation. NOT AT domc.—Another knock !—Another " Not at Home !" A fat tradesman, with all the terrors of unauthorised impertinence written legibly on his forehead, was combating with per tinacious resolution the denial of a valet. " The Captain's not at Home," said the servant : " I saw him at the window," cried the other. " I can't help that," resumed the laced Cerberus," he's not at home." The foe was not easily repulsed,' and seemed disposed to storm. I was in no little fear for the security of " the Castle," but the siege was finally raised. The enemy retreated, sending forth from his half-closed teeth many threats, intermingled with frequent mention of a power ful ally in the person of lawyer Shark. " Here," said I, resuming my meditations, " here is another instance of the utility of my theme — Without it, the noble spirit of this disciple of Mars would have been torn away from reflec tions on twenty-pounders by a demand for twenty pounds ; from his pride in the King's Commission, by his dread of the King's Bench. Perhaps he is at this moment entranced in dreams of charges of horse and foot ! lie might have been roused by a charge for boots and shoes. In fancy he is at the head of serried columns of warriors ! His eyes might have opened upon columns of shillings and pence.—ln fancy he is disposing of crowns! Horrible thought ! he might have been awakened to the recollection that he has not half-a-crown in the world.— (Etonian) LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, JUNE 2 This being the last day of Trinity Term, the LORD CHAN CELLOR sat in the Court from 10 to 2 o'clock ; but the busi ness which came before his Lordship possessed no public inte rest. Thursday, the 2d of July, will be the next seal. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 26. THE KING V. KNATCHRULL AND OTHERS. The Cotirt gave judgment in this case, and allowed a Rule obtained by the COMMON SERJEANT far a new trial, to be made absolute. The defendants were found guilty of a con spiracy to defraud a peisen, named Worrall, of 4001. This being the last day of Term, the Court sat to a late hour hearing motions relating to points of practice. -..11.--. PREROGATIVE COURT, JUNE 26. . IN THE GOODS OF HIS LATE MAJESTY. lnirther Particulars.] Sir JOHN NICHOL gave judgment this day. After stating the nature of the application, and the document on which it was founded, The'Learned JUDGE observed, the question was, whether it could grantprobate according to the prayer of the party, and ac cording to the principles and practice of the law, as established ? ' The- first point taken in arguthentwas the right of Sovereigns generally to make their wills ; secondly, the form of the instru ment; and finally, the jurisdiction of this Court, so far as its rules of practice and general principles were proved to give it power of decision over this question. ' - The right of Sovereigns to make their wills might appear a' gobil ground for raising the question of protest, and for bring ing the matter more, formally before the Court. Next,sthe form of the instrument might be fairly argued by propounding the instrument itself; and its genuineness would become the final object of inquiry. On these pointS the Court would ex press no- opinion whatever. Even assuming them all in the affirmative, and taking the allegation before the ' Court to be sufficiently proved, the first question was; whether the Court had jurisdiction to entertain the inquiry ? , When this application was, first made, the Court inquired for a precedent, and after the most diligent research, no precedent or principle of authority could be found; not even a principle of analogy could be found, as furnishing a precedent for the jurisdiction of this Court. From the re4,,m of King Alfred to the present day, there was no instance of probate being taken to the Will of a Sovereign in this Couq, and much less fox pro ceedings being taken, as agaiti§t the'reignlng Sovereign of the country. The ordyinstanee of 4 King's Wiltheing brought into discus sion, waS referred to by Sir Edward Coke, in his 4th Institute, and which stood thus upon the Rolls of Parliament: —Henry IV,'made a-will and appointed executors, who fearing the estate might be insufficient to pay, declined to act; and it was stated that, in consequence, it was decided that the effects should be disposed of by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Henry V. how ever, put an end to the jurisdiction, by agreeing to take the ef fects, and pay for them by appraisement. There was no pre cedent to be found for this Court's exercising jurisdiction over the Will of a departed Sovereign. The only instance of a Will of a Sovereign being brought into the Registry of this Court, was a copy of a Will of Henry VIII. ;.but to that there was no trace of probate having been granted. The object of the Statute of Henry VIII. chap. 12. was for the purpose of putting offall appeals to the Pope of Rome; and only serves to shew, that the reigning Sovereign henceforth became the Su preme Head of the Church, and of the Ecclesiastical Courts ; but it was not the object of that-Statute to make the reigning So vereign subject to the jurisdiction of this Court. It might un doubtedly be taken from the established rules of law, that our Kings had the power of making Wills. This was according to Lord Coke's authority ; but to what extent that power was exer cised, need not here be inquired. There was an instance of a King's 'Will so late as the reign of George I. Yet no trace of any Will being sent here for probate, which furnished decisive proof that the Court had no jurisdiction in such case. All intermediate Sovereigns since Henry VIII., might be supposed to have died intestate, as far as the question of precedent could affect the jurisdiction of this Court. In all cases of subjects dying intestate, the Ordinary of the Archbishop might grant administration to the widow, or next of kin; and by the Statute of Charles the Se cond the widow became trustee for the purpose of distributing it. In all cases of the Sovereign dying his successor is entitled to his personal property; and no precedent existed for his com ing into this Conn, in order to give his successor legal powers to act as administrator. The Sovereign was superior to this 'Court ; its business was testamentary ; and it was described as the prerogative, in consequente of the Archbishop halting the .power to grant administration ; yet still this Court had no power over the prefogative of the Crown. But the Sovereign was considered the fountain of all justice, both Ecclesiastical and Civil. He was the Head of the Church ; and the Com mon Law Courts were denominated the King's Courts. The question here was not to try whether this was the true will of his late Majesty, but as to its being an express personal demand upon his present Majesty ;which was sought to be en forced adversely; and that the proceeding could not be institut ed against himself, seemed to be admitted, by praying a moni tion against the King's Proctor. It would be a perfect infrac tion of and against the principles of the common law to implead the reigning Sovereign personally in any suit; and this Couit, least of all, was entitled to interfere with the prerogative of the Crown. Mr. Justice Blackstone; in speaking of the rights of the Crown of England, said it possessed imperial dignity.— The Sovereign was Imperator, and his kingdom declared to be an empire. The Statute of Henry VIII. e. 12, declares the King to be supreme head of the realm ; inferior to no man on earth ; de pendent on no maid; and accountable to nb man. To say, therefore, that any Court had jurisdiction over him, when all jurisdiction implies superiority of power ; then no Court can have jurisdiction, unless it can redress wrongs, and unless it ,can carry its decrees into execution. According to Finch, every subject of England is totally di vested of remedy, in case the King should invade his rights, either by private injury or oppression. But to this might be added; the law has provided a remedy ; if any man has a just demand against the King, he must petition him in his Court of Chancery through his Chancellor, and the Chancellor will en deavour to influence and persuade, but not to command, justice. The King, according to the same author, can do no wrong. The King is not only incapable of doing, but of thinking, wrong; for the law will not treat the Supreme Magistrate with fallibility (although as a i'nan he must be subject to the same infirmities as other men)," but that such a charge against the dignity . of the Prince might lessen him in the eyes of his sub jects. • As the fountain of justice, he is supposed to be present in all his Courts, possessing übiquity, although personally he may not dispense justice. The Learned Judge, having gone over a series of other au thorities, to shew that the Legislature had never contemplated that the reigning Sovereign should be subject to the jurisdiction of the superior Courts, and much less to this, which was an inferior Court, concluded by adverting to the argument of Dr. ' Lutbing,ton, that, by the 39th and 40th of his late Majesty, it would have been a mockery to give the power to his late Ma jesty to make a Will, unless that Will could be carried into execution, came to the decision, that it would be presumption in this Court, and high disrespect, to suppose the Sovereign could exercise any power of defeasance, since he could only have a wish of doing justice, and must be supposed incapable of doing any injustice. There was no doubt there were proper Tribunals to remedy any real injustice in this case ; but what ever that justice might be, this Court did not presume to de cide ; but simply upon the question of jurisdiction, this Court -having determined that it was bound by law to reject the pre sent question, on the ground that it had no jurisdiction.

The HISTORY of JOHNNY QUIE GENUS, the Little Foundling of the late Dr. SYNTAX; a Poem, in eight Monthly Numbers. Written by the Author of THE THREE TOURS of Dr. SYNTAX, in SEARCH of , THE Plc- TURESQUE, of CoNsoLATlcog, and of A WIFE ; the DANCE of DEATH, and-the DANCE of LIFE. We cannot but feel some degree of self-re proach for, having so long delayed to notice, the work before us, as it afforded us much pleasure in the perusal, and is a surprising proof of the strength and fertility of the Author's imagination. His Doctor Syntax is a work of so entertaining and moral a nature , that it is likely always to re tain a high rank among the poetical effusions of our country. The easy versification in which it is convey ed, its benevolent tendency, the virtuous precepts which it inculcates, its luxuriant but well governed humour, and the variety of divert ' ing incidents, and extraordinary characters in which it abounds, and particularly the admirable portrait which the author- has drawn of that whimsical compound of singularity, knowledge, and benignity, Doctor Syntax,,fully account for the popularity of the work, and for the many ,ttt tempts which have been made to obtrude imita tions on the public, under the attractive . jitle of the original composition. Doctor . Syntax himself is described as so amiable a character that any thing connected, with him, 4hen coming from the author of the original work, cannot but excite an interest in all who have had the pleasure of pe rusing it. Upon this principle the hero of the present work, Johnny Quce Genus, in having been patronized by the benevolent Doctor, is naturally an object of curiosity and attention. The cha racter of Johnny seems to shew that it had in a great degree been influenced by that of his Worthy patron ; he seems to inherit the benevo lent spirit, the unaffected waggery' and 'good humour,. if not the simplicity, which often exposed the good Doctor to wanton mis chief and interested artifice. Johnny, like Gil Bias,' passes through a great part 'of his life in the humble condition of servitude, and his se veral employers are properly discriminated, con trasted, and described. He is involved in various adventbres and perplexities, and at length, with poetical justice, finds in the conclusion a full re compense for all his difficulties and his sufferings. The same .ease, . spirit and humour, the same benevolent aid moral tendency, which charac.: terize the several Tours of Doctor Syntax, appear in the adventures of Johnny Qace Genus. The rectitude of his mind triumphs over the defor mity of his-person, and, while. the Readers enjoy the oddity of his humour, and are interested in the vicissitudes'of his fortune, they rejoice In his final prosperity, and must acknowledge that he was worthy of the protection of the departed Doctor. Before we conclude our notice of a work which has afforded us so much entertain ment, and which, as we have said, is so surpriz ing a proof of the vig orous mental powers, luxu riant imagination, a nd genuine humour of the author, at the advanced age of eighty, as stated in the last Tour of Doctor Syntax, it would be unjust to Mr. no WLANDSON not to add that the twenty-four plates, with which he has enriched Johnny Qum Genus, strikingly illustrate the Chief incidents of the work, and manifest the inexhaustible.fertility 'of his sportive pencils The French Papers contain melancholy de tails of the destructive effects of the late storms ; one of them has the following paragraph:— " The 14th and 15th June were fatal days to the greater part of the Agriculturists of the departments of La Dordogne, Incire and Loire, Loire and Cher, &c. Storms, such as have not been known within the memory of man, have caused ruin and devastation in those districts. In several communes there is no hope of the least harvest ; it will not be thought sur prising, when. it is known that hailstones have fallen which weighed three pounds (at Pouilley one of them even weighed seven !), and that the country was covered with hail to the depth of two feet." LOSS OF A FRENCH FRIGATE.—" Halifax, May 24.—H.M.C.M.5. Africaine, of 44 guns, Capt. EPTON, from Martinique for St. Pierre and Miquelon, the weather thick and foggy, struck on a shoal on the south side of the Isle of Sable, a heavy swell then beating on the shore. In less than half an hour the ship became bilged ; and the weather lanyards being cut, the masts soon went by the boards. Part of the crew, in five boats, attempted to land ; the boats were over set, and destroyed in the breakers ; but the men, with the exception of three or four, were saved by the exertions of Captain HUDSON, the keeper, and the people under his direction on the island; who were ready to afford them every assistance. Providentially, the schooner Two Brothers; DARay, was then at anchor on the north side ; she instantly got under weigh,. and with great risk and difficulty, having touched several times on the bar, at length beat over it, and reached the ship about twelve o'clock the next night, in time to save the Captain and re mainder of the officers and crew, upwards of 250. At three o'clOck on Friday morning last the wreck of the ship was left, having heeled off nearly on her beam ends, and the sea almost con stantly breaking over her. The Two Brothers left the island on Sunday last, and arrived here on Wednesday evening, with about 130 of the officers and seamen, including the first Lieu tenant, Surgeon, and Purser. The Captain, 2d Lieutenant, several other officers, and part of the crew,l23 in all, are yet o❑ the island, where they were left with about ten days' provisions.— A vessel from the Dock-yard, and the Two Brothers, will proceed immediately with every requisite for relief. Two or three of the crew, attempting to swim from the wreck, perished in the sarf, which, together with those lost by the oversetting of the boats, amounted to six per sons." I~iGuw:AY Roaßrny.—Tuesday night,. Miss MARGARET Assi, of Princes-street, 'Westminster, returning home from a friend's house in the King's-road, Chelsea, was met by a soldier in his morning dress, who snatched off her shawl and ran off. She called out " Stop thief !" upon which he returned, knocked her down, took the ring off her finger and escaped. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
