TILE LONDON JOURNALS. EXTRACTS FROM TRH DA ILy MORNING PAPERS, .elpril '29, 1822. [NEW TIMES.I IVe have this day to communicate' information of the greatest magnitude and importance to the commercial world. In our Paper of the 18th we first notified that aMeeting was about to be held of the Merchants and Shipowners of London for the purpose of presenting a representation to Government on the expediency of admitting the vessels of Columbia,- Buenos Ayres, and other Independent Countries of South America, to entry in our Ports : and on the 24th we men tioned that a highly respectable Meeting had taken place, at which a Memorial to that effect was agreed to. We have now to lay before our Readers the Memorial itself—(See our Paper this day)—subscribed by several of the first Commercial Houses in Europe,,and to announce that its prayer has been acceded to by Government. The conduct of Great Britain throughout the whole contest between the European and Ultra-marine portions of the Spanish Empire has been narked by a principle of integrity and. good faith,- than - which nothing can be more honourable to our national character. Bound by Treaty to abstain' from all interference " pending the troubles be tween Spain and her revolted - Colonies," no prospect of commercial profit or'advantage, how ever alluring, could, during the colonial-War, in duce Ministers to depart from the most even handed neutrality between the conflicting parties. But now that the contest is over—now that the countries in question are no longer to be viewed in the light of " Colonies," but have achieved an absolute Independence—now that they are go verned by their own laws and political Institu tions, and that. the Spanish authority over them appears to be - wholly and irrecoverably at an end, we do but follow the course of events, and obey the dictates of reason, in entering into rela tions with them in their new character, from which, in their old one, we were precluded. [THE TIMES.} The softened tone in which Mr. Canning mentioned every class of Reformers in this coun try, in his speech upon Lord John Russell's mo tion, may be considered as an omen, we hope, of gentler manners and a more humanized heart. It is Christianly, at least, to wish for the im provement of those whom, in their past state, it was impossible to love ; and to catch with avidity the first flattering symptom of their ameliorating condition. The present situation, however, of this Right lion. Gentleman, is calculated to in stil meekness. He is goi;ig to leave a too generous country, perhaps for ever; he is removing to an immeasurable distance from the objects of his en mity ; and, therefore, those feelings of indif ference may perhaps be springing up in his mind, which will generally exist towards those with whom a man ceases to have any intercourse or rela tion. Perpetual separation, whether by death or by distance, calms and modifies most passions. The Reformers will thank Mr. Canning the more for his treatment c3,' them, when they observe, with us, that his charity was not indiscriminating. Who could have thought that on such an occa sion, when, by the permission of Lord London derry, he is going forth to reap the spoils of India, his mind could have recurred to such a subject as the \Valcheren expedition ? or that he could have suffered his discourse to dwell for one moment, not only on the lamentable catas trophe itself, but on some of the peculiarities succeeding it, in which he and his victorious rival personally bore so important a share? [MORNING HERALD.] This evening, it is expected, the Marquis of Londonderry will be able to make his promised Motion on the subject of Agricultural Distress.— We have already expressed our disapprobation of the Report of the Committee, and farther con sideration has only tended to confirm us in the opinion that the plan of granting loans to depo sitors of corn in warehouses chosen by Govern ment, and under inspectors appointed by Govern ment, is extremely complicated in its machinery, difficult in its execution, and liable to much ac sual abuse, and to the suspicion of more. The turn also proposed to be granted in that way, even if the plan was the least objectionable in the world, is so limited, that it could have but a very partial operation in relieving the distress of the agriculturists,and would be productive only of a job to some favoured speculators. When we recollect the guarded terms which the Noble Marquis used, on the presentation of the Report by Mr. Gooch, in giving notice that he would submit a proposi tion springing out of the Report, and when we add to this circumstance the time which he and the Committee have since had to give farther consideration to the subject, to modify and ma ture their project, as well as to examine the va lidity of the objections made to it—when we re collect that the Noble Lord had already pro posedl.and as soon abandoned, the idea of lend ing so many millions to the Agriculturists on securities of the parish rates, we have - still room for hoping that the warehousing plan will form no part of the scheme which his Lordship will propose this evening for the relief of the Agri culturists. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] The prospect of war is by no means a cheering one to most of the Governments of Europe ; and the greatest exertions have therefore been made to prevent an open rupture between Russia and Turkey.—As to the issue of these exertions, we have ever had but one opinion. Turkey cannot satisfy the demands of Russia. To suppose that Russia will abstain from availing itself of the present favourable opportunity for realizing her, favourite plans, is to know little of the real character of that power;—at one time we are told that the time for conquest is gone by, as if we did not bear fresh in our recollections the partition of Saxony, the forced transfers of Nor way, Genoa, &c. the retention of Poland and Fried-. land. At another we are told that Russia dare not set the wishes of the other States at defiance, as if there were one State in Europe at this moment which he might not safely defy. Then we hear of the sympathy of Alexander for the embarrass ments of his brother Monarchs, and his attach ment to the cause of legitimate' Monarchy, as if on grounds like these he durst baulk- the hopes and oppose the interests' and prejudices of his nation. The finest provinces of Russia are on the Black Sea, and these provinces can never attain the prosperity for which they are destined, so long as the incurable Government of Turkey is interposed between them and the Mediterranean. The establishment of a regular Government of any description in Turkey would soo❑ be a mine of wealth to Russia ; and of this she is so well aware, that we may be assured she will not rest till this is effected. She has a tower of strength, too, in the public opinion of Europe, which is every where strong in her favour. The Governments which are opposed to her, and endeavour to up hold Turkey, are, on the other hand, ashamed of the cause in w hich they are embarked, namely, the prolongation of the reign of ignorance, fana ticism, and savage cruelty. [MORNING POST 1 Painful as were the accounts from Ireland, which we published on Saturday, they will have one good effect, that of erasing every trace of doubt as to the real causes of the disturbances in that part of the Empire. Mr. Grant, in his late truly philosophical speech on the state of Ireland, observed how remarkable it was, that whenever, from local canses, any particular dis trict broke out, the disease instantly spread through the' adjacent districts on every side.— The most applicable solution for this singularity appeared to the Right lion. Gentleman in the abject situation of the people generally. In ordinary times, the wretched food upon which they live is obtained with ease,.and then their numbers mul tiply exceedingly ; but when by any accident that miserable staff of life is destroyed, despair follows, and they fly to outrage from the horrors of famine and its attendant, pestilence. The accounts which we daily receive shew this state ment to be now verifying in its worst shape. — A great part of the evil, at the same time, may be ascribed, as we lately remarked, to the absence in Ireland of any public provision for the indigent, like what our poor laws afford.— We do not, however, so much mean that the be nefit would arise from such aresource being always at hand to relieve the distressed and thus prevent outrage, as that, if the property of the country were liable to a charge of this sort, it would make the owners of that property, with a view to self in terest merely,exert themselves to better the condi tion of the people, in order to avoid being burdened with their support. A result somewhat similar to this has, in our opinion, been produced by the operation of the poor laws among ourselves. We should be sorry, nevertheless, to attribute the active benevolence which distinguishes us as a na tion, to selfish motives, yet the latter may be said, without disparagement, to have originally aided the formation of those habits which are now per haps alone sufficient to preserve to the lower classes all their existing rights and comforts. But we still find that even a legal provision for our poor is not adequate in seasons of hardship to pre vent very serious excesses. '[lie agricultural dis tricts have, for some time, exhibited lamentable proofs of this ; and, assuredly, with such a fact before our eyes, we ought to judge charitably of the wretched victims of want in Ireland, who, at the best of times, know nothing of comfort, for whom the law has made no provision, and who, it is now unquestionable, have lately been goaded to outrage by sheer starvation.

We had a large arrival of all descriptions of Grain during the *eek. The Market to-day being pretty well attended by dealers from the interior, who gave a little animat i on to the trade, the best Irish Wheat advanced about 3d per bushel. Malting Barley, being in plenty, was 3d lower, and, as well as Malt, difficult to sell. The holders of Oats, encouraged by the rise in Wheat, asked id per bushel more than on this day week, yet they were not very ready sale. Other Articles were without fluctuation.

The Jury were in waiting this morning a considerable period, in consequence of the Aldrman whose turn it was to preside not making his appearance. At length Mr. Alderman \Vial'''. MAN, although labouring under much indisposition, attended for him. Thomas Clements, aged 16, was indicted for stealing a silver watch, &c. the property of Mary Ivory, in the house of Prince Esterhazy. The prisoner made no defence, and the Jury re turned a verdict of Guilty. Mary Young was indicted for stealing a piece of lawn, the property of Wm. Haynes. The Jury found a verdict of Guilty. She was removed from the bar in the arms of the turnkeys.— The Judge inquired whether any person knew her, when Mr. Brown, the late Governor, stepped forward, and said that she had conducted herself in a most exemplary manner. The Judge observed, that she should be leniently, dealt by, as it was probably her first offence. Henry White, a genteel youth, was placed at the bar, charg ed with stealing two shirts, the property of Hugh Milner, and a silver spoon, the property of Urbino Pizetta. At the com mencement of the examination, the unfortunate youth fell back wards with considerable violence, and animation was for some, time suspended. Every efibrt was used to restore him, but in vain, and he was carried out of Court in a state of in sensibility. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.--On Wednesday last, between. the hours of one and two o'clock, the following young gentlemen of Preston were drowned in the river Ribble, viz. Master Charles and Master George Grimshaw, sons to N. Grimshaw, Esq. Mayor of the Borough ; Master Henry Hul ton, son to Henry Hulton, Esq. county treasurer ; and Master Joseph Kay, son of N 1 r. Kay, the proprietor of Knox Folly Cot ton Mills. These young men were plying their little boat on the river Ribble, near Penwortham-bridge, when, having thrown out their ballast and hoisted their sail, the boat being light, and the sail top heavy, a sudden gust of wind came and upset the vessel. Immediately afterwards, they were seen, at the surface of the water, making all possible exertions to regain land, but all was ineffectual : they clung to each other : their shrieks were heard by two or three persons, but they were heard in vain. At last, exhausted by exertion in striv ing to overcome the force of the current, (there being what is termed a fresh, the water running very high) they sunk to rise no more ; the vital spark was extinguished, and they are gone to that " bourne from whence no traveller returns !" As soon as the melancholy event was known in the town, it excited the greatest sensation through all classes of society : the people were seen running in every direction, and hurrying down Fishergate towards the water-side. The number of specta- I tors amounted to many thousands at intervals, who stood in silent anguish. Boats werefilled with men, endeavouring, by every pos sible means, to find the lifeless bodies, 3 of which were discovered during the course of the afternoon. The other was found on Thursday morning. The evening preceding the fatal day, they and their associates had been rejoicing in their boats on the Ribble, accompanied by the Lancashire band of music, playing delightful airs, which had a pretty effect, whilst thousands of spectators were assembled to witness the novel spectacle, given in honour of liis. Majesty's birth day. They ', were full of life and merriment on that day—and on the next were consigned to the cold arms of death. tells Hog Pease' 2os a 21s Boiling Pease —s a --s Flour Hay, per ton 38s a 476 53s a 70s Clovtr Straw 60s a 6,5 s 40s a• —s rE, April 18.
