THE LONDON JOURNALS. 13TRAC1S FROM THE DNALY MORNING PAPERS, June 13, 18/2. [MORNING POST.I The debate on Mr. Western's motion relative to the Currency was resumed last night, and con tinued till a quarter past three o'clock this morn ing, when on a division it was rejected by an immense majority, there being against it 194, and only 30 for it. Upon this result we congra tulate the country. As we have already ob served, we foresaw in the first instance the incon -veniences now complained of, and accordingly raised our voice against the measure. In the present state of things, however, the only dan ger would be to attempt retracing the steps, while the futility of the idea is fully mani fest. Whatever research or talent some of the speeches delivered last night may evince, they now come too late, and can only serve to agitate, and consequently injure the country, at a time when we have so considerably recovered from all injurious effects. The prevailing distress we sincerely regret, but still it is only partial, and cannot be, of much longer continuance. Within the last year Ministers have remitted no less than four millions of taxes, and reduced the expenditure two millions, making an aggregate saving of six millions in twelve months. Indi viduals should follow the example, and a fixed hope be entertained, that Providence, which has so bounteously favoured us at all times, will won romove the passing visitation, and restore the Empire to universal prosperity. [MORNING HERALD.] In all that has hitherto been said or written on the subject of the fall in the rent of land, and in the price of agricultural and other productions, we do not remember that the following circum stance has been taken into consideration :—The difference that now exists in the value of the national debt of 800 millions, compared with the price it was worth during the greater part of the last war. Its present value is about 801. Money for every 1001. Stock ; which requires 640 mil lions of capital to purchase it. During the - war, its average price was not more than QO/. Money for every 1001. Stock ; which consequently required but 480 millions of capital to compass it. If, therefore, we deduct from 640 millions the sum of 480 millions, we have the sum of 160 millions of capital, taken from land, houses, agricultural, and other pro duce, which we will call the real thing, and that amount has passed into what we will call the unreal thing. Exclusively, however, of this drain of capital from the one thing to the other, an immense capital has found its way into ano ther unreal thing, called foreign securities. We should think the drain, in the later instance, has been not much less than 40 millions since the peace. If we . should be near the mark in our data, we have the sun's of 160 millions for the English unrealities, and 40 millions for the fo reign, making the sum of 200 millions taken from the realities, and put into the unrealities. We have been often surprised that Mr. Ricardo, Mr. liuskisson, Sir Francis Burdett, and others, who .have spoken and written so much on these ab struse subjects, should never have contemplated the probable effect, per centum, that such an operation as this must have had on the price of land, of horses, and of all other descriptions of property. We are especially surprised at Mr. Ricardo, since it is said that he calculated to such a nicety in the affair of Mr. Peel's Bill, as to assert, that it had made, or would .make, exactly four and a half per cent. difference in the price of all things. [MORNING cnttoNlcr,r.] We profess ourselves utterly unable to see the benefit that would result from going into a Com mittee to inquire into the effects produced by Mr. Peel's Bill. Who would recommend a re turn to a depreciated currency now that we have got a good one? If it is not meant to return to a depreciated currency, why go into a Com mittee ?—Mr. Western seemed to think that to depreciate the currency was an infallible means for promoting the prosperity of a country. Such a description led, in his opinion, " precisely to the same results as the opening of the Ame rican mines on the diminution of the value of silver, and the consequent increase of the quantity of metallic money throughout the nations of the world. But though the impor tations of America did produce depreciation of value in the Silver Currency, did not that event also .give an increased stimulus to the industry of all the nations of the world ?" And he ap pealed to the famous mistake into which Hume fell on this subject, which has been so well ex posed by M. Mill. " The man," says the latter, " who goes first to market, with the augmented quantity of money, either raises the price of the commodities which he purchases, or he does not raise it. If he does not raise it, he gives no ad ditional encouragement to production. The supposition therefore must be, that he does raise prices. But exactly in production as he raises prices, he sinks the value of money. He there fore gives no additional encouragement to pro duction." The whole amount of the effect pro duced by depreciating the currency, limits itself to the transference of property from one set of persons to another. [BRITISH PRESS.] We mentioned a few days since that a ballot -would be taken at Lloyd's, upon the vote for giving 5001. to the suffering Irish. It took place yestettlay (Wednesday), and we are sorry to an nounce this trifling sum (trifling compared with the former gifts of this house), was lost by a ma jority against the grant of 23—the Noes being 269; the Ayes 246. The supporters were stre . THIOUS in their exertions, and canvassed with in defatigable assiduity ; but the Committee were decidedly against them, and also a party who conceived the funds of this house ought not to be applied to any charitable act unconnected with nautical mercantile distreas or claim. It is curious to observe the feelings which actuate the same men at different periods. When a vote for thousands would oblige a Minister and give' eclat to " the powers that be ; " when votes of enormous sums, and to foreigners, would assist in increasing a Minister's influence in European politics and despotic rule, this same body was lavish in its donations—then all was charity—a duty we owed our fellow-creatures, a proper appropriation of the abundance Heaven had blessed us with ;—but now, prudence is held out in reconciling the denial of a gift to a starving multitude, who hold by birth, or who rather ought to hold, every thing in common with us —the same rights, the same privileges, the same laws. NEW TrmEs.l After a long debate, Mi. Western's motion was negatived this morning by a majority of 194 to 30 ; and Mr. Huskisson's amendment carried. It may be remembered that, during the discus sions which preceded the resumption of cash payments, we uniformly contended that that measure was premature. The best informed persons thought with us, when the measure was first proposed ; but popular clamour was the other way : and few are the Statesmen who have the virtue or the courage to resist popular clamour. Well, what will be done now ? Cobbett says, Mr. Peel's Bill must be repealed ; and a consi derable number of persons of weight turn round and cry for the repeal—because they think it will be popular! Really, if we are to be blown about in this weathercock way, we had better have a Republic at once. The standard of our currency (according to the unintelligible jargon of our political economists) has been changed once, to the great derangement of all our pe cuniary concerns ; and now we are called upon to chang e it back again, without the slightest regard to the additional confusion that such a measure must produce. " The parti cular evils that have resulted from the return to cash payments, says an evening paper, " were fully anticipated by the Legislature and the country, when that great measure was agitated." We should like to see the proof of this broad as sertion. Our opinion is, that if the evils that have resulted from it, or one half of them, had been foreseen, that very ill-judged measure would not have been adopted ; but that is no reason whatever why we should rush blindfold upon an opposite train of evils. IVe raised our feeble voice ineffectually against the passing of Mr. Peel's Bill ; but now that it has done all the mischief that it can do, we raise the same voice against its repeal. [THE TIMES.] We have received by express certain docu ments from Paris, contained in the official part o the Moniteur of Monday last. These are the address of the Chamber of Peers to the King on the opening of the Session, and his Majesty's re ply. We should not have thus particularly re marked the arrival of ordinary State Papers, but the last of them is rendered interesting by the confirmation which it affords of a fact already announced here, and of the greatest importance to Europe. The King, in his reply to the Address of the Peers, states, " that it is with the " most 46 sincere pleasure that he informs the Chamber, " that he has received news since the opening of " the Session which announce that peace will 44 not be disturbed in the East; and that he feels 44 a lively satisfaction in imparting the know " ledge of this fact." Thus, then, terminate for the present, we presume, all the speculations that were founded on a war between Russia and Turkey. To speak with certainty, or the affectation of certainty, of the issue of dis cussions carried on with such a Government as that of the Sublime Porte, would have been rash ; but the public will recollect that, during every stage of this very protracted dis cussion, we have never ceased from expressing our opinion that matters would terminate peace ably : others who have spoken with more con fidence will now appear to have been more in error. Above all, the French politicians of the Buonapartist school, with whom " might was right," have been wbfully in the wrong.— They could not conceive that the Emperor Alexander, who appeared to have the power of overthrowing the Turkish Empire, would want the will ! With respect to his Imperial Majesty, we now adhere with more confidence than before to our opinion of his conduct. Ile may occultly be the most ambitious man alive, but he has as yet given no indication of any rea diness to sacrifice the sense of justice to the hope of personal aggrandizement : and we think it unfair reasoning to infer at once from the simple possession of a great empire, the disposition to make it larger by injust►ce and oppression. Whenever his Majesty does outstep the bounds of moderation, we hope we shall be the first to otice and reprehend his conduct. SHOCKING CIRCUMSTANCE.—Yesterday after noo❑ an Inquest was held by T. STIRLING, Esq. Coroner for Middlesex, at the George Inn, Isle worth, on the body of Richard Neale, whose death was occasioned under the following unfortu nate circumstance :—The deceased was walking with his brother, Thomas Neale, and another per son, on Monday night, over Isleworth Bridge, carrying a basket, and the brother observed to him that he looked like a pedlar carrying a basket, and he would throw it away rather than carry such luggage. The deceased replied, " By G— it shall go then," and threw the basket over the bridge into the canal. As the basket was float ing down the water, the deceased recollected that it contained a shawl of his wife's, and imme diately ran round the bridge and leaped into the river to get it out. He swam for some time : and then attempted to gain the hank, but in stantly sunk to rise no more alive. his brother leapt into the water to rescue the deceased, but before he reached the spot where his brother dis appeared,he also sunk. The bodies were taken out of the water immediately, and the brother of the deceased was, after a great deal of exertion, restored to a state of sensibility, but the de ceased was quite dead. The medical gentlemen have some doubts whether the brother of the deceased will recover from the effects of his im mersion. The parties were intoxicated at the time the occurrence took place. Verdict—" Acciden tally Drowned, being intoxicated at the time." EAST INDIA HOUSE. Yesterday a General Court of the Company was held for the purpose of considering the Bill now pending in Parliament;for consolidating the several laws relating to the private trade with the East Indies; and also to consider the pro priety of concurring in the repeal of the law by which ships, under the burthen of 350 tons, are precluded from engaging in such trade, from the United Kingdom. The CHAIRMAN (JAMES PATTISSON, Esq.) having taken the Chair, stated to the Meeting that a Correspondence had taken place between the Directors and the Board of Controul, on the subject of the business of the day. The Correspondence was next read by the Clerk. The CHAIRMAN then said, that though it was most de sirable to have an immediate discussion on the business of the day, yet he understood it was the wish of seve ral Gentlemen that the correspondence which had been just read should be left on the table for the consideration of Mem bers, and that the general question should be discussed on a future day. He concluded by moving that the discussion of the question should be postponed to Wednesday next. Mr. FORBE s concurred in the idea of postponement, but he could not help thinking that there never was a time when In dia stood more in need of support in that House. He was not hostile to a free trade, but he was hostile to a principle which gave all the advantage to one side. The Hon. Gentleman then went into a discussion of the measure before Parliament at con siderable length; he concluded by regretting that the interests of India were so poorly represented and defended in the House of Commons ; he suggested, that for the purpose of strengthen ing the Indian interest in that House, every Director as mat ter of qualification, have a seat in Parliament. Looking as he did at the passing events, he was convinced that it was the po licy of Government to depress the state of India, in favour of the West Indies. Mr. CARRUTHERS protested against the assertion, that it was the policy of Government to depress one class of society at the expence of another ; on the contrary, he believed it was the wish of the Government to deal out equal justice towards all. Mr. D. ROBINSON spoke against the Bill, and condemned the system of Ministers, as not likely to watch with sufficient jealousy over the commercial interests of England, whilst the other nations of Europe rigidly watched over their interests, and promoted their objects. Mr. S. Dixow, after alluding in pointed terms to the ab sence of Mr. Hume, said, he could not too forcibly condemn the suggestion of an Hon. Member (Mr. Forbes), who would wish to make it a qualification of every Director to hold a seat in the House of Commons. To use the words of an old song, he would have in that House his four-and-twenty Directors all in a row—ta laugh)—But he ought to have recollected that the business of a Member of Parliament was not to watch over any particular interest, but to watch over the rights and liberties of all. Mr. RICARDO said, that his Hon. Friend (Mr. Hume) was absent in consequence of having been engaged on a Commit tee of the House of Commons. He agreed with the Hon. Gen tleman who described the duties of a Member of Parliament. — That Gentleman stated what the House of Commons ought to be; but he must be a blind man indeed who would say that the House of Commons, constituted as it was,was what a House of Commons ought to be.—(Here Mr. LOWNDES called to or der.)—He was willing to admit that the question was not a pro per one for discussion there, and he would not say a word more on it. Adverting to the general subject, it was impossible to ex pect a beneficial trade with India, unless England received from India produce in exchange of her own. The subject indeed was so self-evident that he was surprised any man could doubt the benefits which this country would derive from the abolition of all sorts of commercial restrictions. An Hon. Gentleman had spoken of the Government in terms which shewed how high was the opinion he entertained of it. Perhaps he (Mr. Ri cardo) did not differ much with him as to the intentions of Government, but those intentions were often of no avail, and Ministers were not unfrequently obliged to press measures of which they could not approve. Clamour and the interest of persons in that House forced such measures on the Ministers. That was a great evil—and what he (Mr. Ricard'o) would wish to see was, the House of Commons independent and free, who would spurn the views of parties, who would turn a deaf ear to particular interests, and who would bear in mind the great duties of a House of Commons—to watch over the common good and liberties of all.—(Hear, hear, hear !) Mr. TUCKER contended that nearly three times a greater quantity of sugar might be consumed in England than was now actually consumed, and the sugar, instead of being 6d. might be sold for 21d. and 3d. per lb. After solna other observations, the Honourable Gentleman strongly impressed on the Court the propriety of obtaining a relaxation in the Duties on Sugar, as a measure most equitable and necessary. Mr. TRANT next addressed the Court on the same side, and concurred in the propriety of an adjournment. An Hon. ME.M.ER wished to know whether Ministers would consent to stop the progress of the Bill till the next meet ing of tl - .• Court ? The CHAIRMAN said that a communication to that effect would be made to Ministers. The question of adjournment to Wednesday next was put and carried. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 12. THE SING V. HARRIS. This was an information against the defendant, filed by the Attorney-General, for wilful and corrupt perjury, assigned upon evidence given by the defendant before a Committee of the House of Lords, upon a Bill for regulating the Elective Franchise of the Borough of Barnstaple, in contradiction to evidence given by him before a Committee of the House of Com mons, upon the same subject, in which the defendant deposed in contradiction to the evidence given before the Committee of the House of Peers. In Michaelmas Term Mr. D. F. Jones moved in arrest of judgment, that perjury could not be assign ed upon evidence so given. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL and Mr. LITTLEDALE, for the Crown, now shewed cause against the rule, and cited prece - _ dents in the time of Mr. Justice Chambre, shewing that indict ments and convictions for perjury upon the like assignments had taken place. Mr. Justice HOLROYD, who had heard part of the argu ment, having left the Court at two o'clock, the further, hearing of the case was postponer'. until a future day. There was no other case worth public notice. PREROGATIVE COURT, JUNE 12. WILL OF HIS LATE MAJESTY—THE soi-disant PRINCESS OLIVE. Dr. LUSHINGTON this day renewed his application to the Court in behalf of the claim of the soi-disant Princess of Cum berland (Mrs. Serres), under a testamentary propounded, pur porting to he a bequest of 15,0001. The Learned Advocate went through a long and elaborate deduction of authorities, from the reign of Henry the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth, which had furnished cases in point, with the opinion of Sir Edward Coke and other Lawyers, that the right of bequeathing private or personal property was inherent in the Sovereign. The following is the substance of this curious document:— " We, by this paper, to which we hereunto set our royal sign manual, do give and bequeath unto Olive, daughter of our royal brother of Cumberland, 15,0001. and we command our heirs and successor after our demise, to pay the same to the use of our said niece, as a recompense for the injury she may receive by keeping the marriage secret." The attesting witnesses to this instrument were stated to be the late Earls of Warwick, Chathani, and Mr. Dunning, after wards Lord Ashburton, and the genuineness of their signa tures had been proved. The instrument was dated in the year 1774, and the Learned Doctor said it was important that this was before his Majesty had been visited by any mental afflic tion. The Learned Doctor concluded a long argument in support of this claim. He was anxious to proceed in the most cautious and respectful manner, in a matter of so much delicacy. A re spectful application had therefore, in the first instance, been made to his Majesty's Government, who returned for answer, " that they did not think proper to interfere," and his client now came forward to challenge the minutest inquiry and opposition, that her right might either be established, or being to be convicted of propounding a forged instrument, that she should receive the punishment of the law. The Learned Coun sel having 'concluded his address, begged to communicate that he had just received a note from the King's Advocate, request ing the further hearing might be deferred, and to which he readily assented. The KING'S ADVOCATE said, as it was his duty to act merely in obedient submission to authority, he awaited the receipt of any instructions that might be given. Sir J. Nic or.r. directed the further hearing to stand over till next Court-day. A Jubilee of a singular nature took place on the evening of the Ist instant, at the Boot and Star inn., at Sutton, near Dover, when the Choir of Singers of that parish gave a supper to Wm. Newing, sen. on his having passed his 50th year as Leader of the Band of Singers. The evening was passedwith much har mony, the old Chairman joining with the rest of his brother singers in many convivial songs. CONSOLIDATED CUSTOMS ACT.

Southey and Scott suspend your clacking, And hear me sing of TURNER'S Blacking. 'Tis worth against all others hacking, Who vainly vie with Turner's Blacking. In George's Fields I watch'd the packing Of hampers fill'd with Turner's Blacking. And wish'd (no wonder !)
