MADRID. AUGUST 14.
The Journals and letters from different parts of
the Peniusuls received yesterday and to-day, con-
tinue to give assurances of the, excellent public
spirit which is every where spreading itself. Scarcely
is any party of marauders heard of, when imme-
diately the Authorities proceed with the greatest
activity, promptitude, steel *rut, to take the neces-
sary measures to flee from this pest of society, the
districts in which these unworthy Spaniards *hew
themselves. The troop; mud the National Militia
dispute with each other the honour of going against
the marauders, smugglers, &c. None of the good
patriots are deterred ley the fatigues incident upon
the traversing of wools and mountains in search of
them, and such is the ta2erness of the troops and
National Militia is the defence of , order, that the
A uthositirs (in their inexpressible satisfaction) are
sometimes obliged to employ more persons than are
required, in order to satisfy the repeated applies-
times which many make to go,even at their own ex-
pense, to externiinate the doistfected.
Andalusia continues to enjoy the best health, and
the greatest vigiltince is employed on account of
the season to avert evils which have been formerly
so fatal. The papers and letters from Barcelona
are not of a later date than whet we have already
published. It was coulidetilly hoped, that the evil
would be stopped at ins conarnencetuent, every
precaution having been taken which the critical
nature of the cue required.
The theatre of Barcelona still continued its per-
formances. doubtless in consequence of this confi-
dence. The profound tranquillity which prevails
in all the populous cities in Spain, where. for a
thousand reasons which every body understands,
some disturbances might arise, prover in the most
convincing manner that public tranquillity is com-
patible with, or rather the sister of political liberty.
and the liberal principles prevail without resistance
among the enlightened majority of the nation.
The tree of liberty is a plant well calculated to
thrive in the fair climute of Spain, and hence we
see it take such deep root and produce such ia'lv
and excellent fruits.—((ueeto de Madrid,olug. 15.)

LONDON,
FRIDAY, Augur'. 31, 1821.

The Five per Cent. Consols for the Account
opened yesterday at 76. They declined almost im-
mediately to 75k, shortly rose again to 761, and
left oil at 761, making w ►ise of above the open-
ing price. It was confidently reported in the
course of the forenoon that the Levant Company
had received an express, announcing that the Turks
had agreed to the ultimatum of Russia, and to this
rumour was ascribed the improvement in the funds.
Whether the report he true or false we are not com-
petent to say, but had it been implicitly relied
upon we should have expected it would have lead
a welder influence on the money market. A
change of a rise or a fall generally accompanies
settling day, and the stability displayed on the pre-
sent occasion would encourage a hope of an improve-
ment. Although the differences were very great in
the quarter, and the account was consequently very
heavy, only one defaulter has been declared.
From the great extent of his dealings it was pre-
aimed at first that his deficiency was very consi-
derable, but on balancing hit accounts it appears
hr was only minus in a sum under 2,0001.—a defi-
ciency cunt p natively so small, it is generally re-
gretted that he did not receive support to protect
him from that extremity.

The Inquest upon the body of RICHARD HONEY
will be resumed this afternoon, in pursuance of the
terms of its adjournment. It is very desirable for
many reasons that this inquiry should be speedily
brought to u conclu►ion. Sufficient has been done
for every purpose of justice, and for elucidating
every circumstance connected with the unhappy
transactions in which the deceased lost his life. We
should therefore lament to see any more time or
temper wasted in pursuing the inquiry (water.
There is no part of our venerable con►titution
more deservedly regarded as a pride and glory to
this country than the mode of inquiring into fuels
by the intervention of Juries, and in proportion as
it merits our admiration and gratitude ought we to
regret if any circumstances should arise to detract
in any degree from the purity of its character. The
dignity and value of the institution must depend
altogether upon the conduct of the individuals who

this nature can, generally speaking, be apprehended
among us, because the Judges, or other officers who
preside in our Courts of Inquiry, are for the greater
part, from learning and experience, too well aware
of their own authority to suffer any persons to inter-
fere with them in the exercise of it, or to dictate
to them forms of practice or rules of evidence.
It has, however, been reported, that in the in-
quiry respecting the circumstances which led to
lloNev's death, some of the Jurors frequently
coutrolled -the Coroner in his opinions upon the
most proper mode of proceeding, and upon the
mode in which evidence ought to be received.,
They have occasionally interrupted witnesses, tell.
ing them that they should not receive such nod

opinions publicly upon the degree of credit to
which partknlar persons were entitled. This, ton,
they have dune in a tPlitille that shelved somewhat
too manifestly the sentiments they had already
formed upon the question in issue, and left but
little hopes that the present Jury can ever be in.

deal of time has been occupied in disputes be-
tween the members of the Jury, which cannot

We hope that the inquiry will, for these reasons,
be speedily brought to a comission.

Lord BATHURST'S answer to the communication
made to his Lordr,hip by Mr. Sheriff 11'AITHMAII,
relative to the riot. it Knightsbridge, on Sunday
evening, will be found in another part of our
paper. To this is added Mr. WAITHMAR'S reply.

ll'e learn from Lord BATHURST'S Niter that
directions had been given by the Noble Lord for
an inquiry into the circumstances cunuected with
that event, even before he received the Sheriff's

communication, in consequence, as the Noble
Lord intimate*, of intelligence which lie had previ-
ously received, and which he informs Mr. W•ITH-
NAN differed essentially from the statement con-
tained in his letter. The nature of this intelligence
we can easily collect from the surprite•espres.ed by
the Noble Earl, that if the Civil Power under the
command of the Sheriff were sufficient, as Mr.
WArrtimatt alleged, for the preservation of the
public peace, 44 • mob should be warted to con-
tinue in • state of riot" for so long a time after the
military had retired to their borrAcks, that Mr. Co-
PIAIIT should be reduced to the necessity of "read
lag the Riot Act," and that in subsequently dis-
persing the rioters with the civil force under his
command, he should have received no assistance
from Mir. W•ITHIMAN. 1

This is the substance of Lord B ATHURST'S
answer, from which we are glad to learn, that an
inquiry is actually to he instituted into the dis-
graceful occurrences of Sunday evening; but from
it the public will imbuing also collect, that the
Noble Secretary of Stale has already made up his
mind upon the matter which is to be made the sub-
ject of investigation. The tone of this answer can-
not be misunderstood. It is intended to convey a
reproach, where, if justice were dime, praise ought
to be given—a reproach for activity in the dis-
charge of a great public duty,. and for fearlessly
hazarding personal safety in preferring the peace Of
the county and preventing the waste of human life!
It is but too obvious that in the eyes of the pre-
sent Ministers of the Crown, the military share
with their Sovereign the royal prerogative of a
moral incapability of sluing wrong, and that no
man in the empire can be regarded as a good sub-
ject, or entitled to credit, if he presume to question
this high ministerial dogma.

Mr. WAITHNAN.e reply to the Noble Secretary's
letter is temperate and judicious. Ile exp
his jot• at the promised inquiry, %hick will deter-
mine the credit due to the conflicting statements;
sod affirms that daring all the time of his being
present at or near the barrack gates on Sunday, no
other magistrate appeared there in his official capa-
city, and that "nn Itiot Act was read." He did
not see .11r. CONANT: but supposing that this magi-
strate was actually there during the time of Mr.
WA trumsrea attendance, the High Sheriff of the
county has good cause to complain that he received
no assistance nor communication from Mr. CONANT.
it is an unwise indulgence in party feelings which
would endanger the public peace and die lives of
his Majesty's subjects.
WAITHMAN further declares, that before he
left the scei.e of the disturbance he had satisfied
himself that the people had dispersed, he conse-
quently concludes that the circumstance to which
Lord BATHURST alludes cannot be the same event
as that of which lie complains, and he therefore re-
peats his demand fur "a rigorous inquiry" into the
occurrences, and " exemplary satisfaction for the
gross outrage" committed by the military.
