COMM NA TIONS IN CANADA —Quebec, Oct: .2e.
—The insubordination which exists among the
sailors in the merchant-servize at this port has
increased to an extent hitherto unknown. A
flagrant instance of riot occurred on Thursday
last, on hoard the ship Chapman, Captain MILL-
BANK, at the moment she was proceeding to sea,
when, after weighing the anchor, a part of the
crew, I`2 in number, who had shipped in this port
at high wages, and received large advances be-
fore signing their articles, refused to assist in
making sail, and would not allow the well-dis-
posed part to obey their officers ; the conse-
quence was that the ship, one of the hugest which
comes to our port, was in imminent danger of
drifting on the rocks under Aubigny Church.--
Mr. Patton, who had loaded the vessel, repaired
on board and endeavoured to restore order, but
without effect; the mutineers, for so we must call
them, 'were furious with liquor, and having each
man a private store of two or three gallons of
rum, it was easy to be seen that so long as this
stimulus remained, any attempt to reduce the re-
frac•ory sailors to obedience would he nugatory.
Nlr. Patton accordingly applied to the Chief
Police Magistrate, Thomas Taschereau, Esq.
on whose representation a military guard
was afforded from the garrison to aid the evil
authority. Titus reinforced, Mr. Patton re!u-n-
-ed on board, and arrived just in time to rtscue
the officers from their perilous situation, as the
refractory party were actually about to throw
the boatswin overboard. The appearance of the-
military, however, altered the case, and tVey were.
secured and conducted to gaol, behavi g them—
selves in the most riotous and outrageous mantter-
in passing through the town. Yesterday they:
were taken to the police-office, and after a
thorough investigation of the case, committed to•
prison for 21 days.

THE LONDON JOURNALS.

DAILY

Extracts from the Morning Papers, N0v.2.5,1825.

NEW TIMES.]
A somewhat curious article appears in the
Courier Francais, complaining that the novel of
Ourika", which has been thought 'fit fOr the chaste
ears of the Parisian Ladies, and which indeed
was written by one of the most distinguished of
them, should have incurred the censure of a
Spanish Bishop. We really see nothing very
Wonderful in that. It will be remembered that
our ingenious and entertaining Parisian Corres-
pondent, a short time since, spoke. of Ourika.
He alluded to the peculiar interest of the tale,
and gave high praise to the titled Authoress for
the art and skill with which she had touched
so very tender a topic. For our own part we
must frankly say, we do not like female
writers handlini7 !.:oc:11 subjects at all. Her
Grace may have contrived to do it with great
delicacy ; but impossible that she can have
raised, on the foundation which she has chosen,
a work calculated to add to the purity of her
virgin readers. We confess our ideas are a little
antiquated on such subjects, but we certainly
should place in oar domestic Index Expurgatorius,
the *Oluptuous songs of Tom Moore, and the
equivocal romance of the DucheSs de Duras. We
are very sorry that the Constitutionnel is under
prosecution. Its pages are in consequence very
dull, for they are loaded with the reports of
its trial, which, like most French trials, is
insufferably tedious. The question stript of
its technicalities is very simple. The
.writers
in the Constitutionnel dislike the Established
Clergy of France, in much the same degree
as, those of the Morning Chronicle do the
Established Clergy of England, and they show
their dislike much in the same way, by continual
sarcasms and misrepresentations. We choose to
tolerate this sort of " denigrement irreligieux" in
this country ; will the people of France be so in-
dulgent to the " egaremens" of the Press ? What
reason would say is one thing : what law says is
another ; but the question would probably be
solved by neither law nor reason in either country,
but by the passions and prejudices of the in-
dividuals who might have to deliver the verdict,
or pronounce the sentence.

[MORNING POST.]
We received, last night, -by Express, French
Papers to. the 23d inst. and the Etoile of Wed-
nesday. The Quotidienne having published ano-
ther silly article,-“ to draw attention to the am-
pitious designs of England, and to the systematic
policy which leads her to aim at universal domi-
nion by favouring insurrections, and to attack the
independence of thrones by promoting that of
subjects," the Etoile has taken up the defence of
our policy with .no less candour than ability.—
It has done more':. it has revealed the views,and
almost the intentions of the French Government,
with respect to South -America; and from what
it has stated, --no doubt can be ..entertained
that within a short period France will follow
our example, and recognize all the Republics of
the neiv Hemisphere. The Quolidienne maintain-
ed that the fate of those Republics was not fixed,
and that a general Declaration on the part of the
Continental Powers that they meant to assi3t
Spain in reconquering her emancipated Colonies
wotild silence us, and render our recognition of
non-effect. The Etoile, on the contrary, contends
that Spain might hatr " waited for time and
events -to facilitate her re-establishment in her
domains, if the United States and England had
not recognized their independence. But that it
would no longer be done without exposing Spain
to very serious danger." It takes a view of the
political changes which led to the Declaration of
independence, and after .stating some historical
facts, and observing that European Powers must,
look at the question according, to their own in-
terests in it, political or commercial, it proceeds
to demonstrate the total inability of Spain to re-
cover her lost dominion.

[TILE PUBLIC tEnG.ca.]
The Etoile. of Wednesday, which, with the
ether Paris Papers of the preceding day, reached
us last night, contains an elaborate article relative
to Spain, and her late Colonies. The pith of it
is, that as Spain has not the Most remote chance
of reconquering those possessions with her own
resources, and not the faintest hope of being aided
by:-other Powers in such an undertaking, her
wisest course would be to recognize their inde-
pendence.: This is the first time that this great
concession has made it appearance in a French'
Ministerial Journal ; and as the Eloile is the
orgau, par excellence, of the Ministryi its insertion
iii that Paper speaks too intelligibly to be misuti-
ders.tood. It. is now perfectly clear that the
French Government has wholly abandoned the
notion of even nominally supporting the Spanish
Court in its arrogant pretensions ; and it. is also
pretty fully ascertained that France is. extremely
anxious to acquire a respectable pretext for esta-
blishing political relations with the New States,
fOr,she is well aware that till she has recognized
their ,independence, her commercial intercouse
with them mUst remain in its present circuit].
scribed and precarious state. For. a considerable
tire- PreviouS to this.promulgaiian of the Views
of-that power, hints had been thrown out, which
successively assumed a, more explicit character,
in order to prepare its allies, as well as its own
subjects. for the important change which it
hiss at last as good as announced, and which it
appears to have long meditated. The French'
natron, -With the- exception of an incorrigible
faction, required, it is true, no preparation ;-
but political • .address, and above' all,some.
fortunate contingency,.were requisite-to obtain,
if not-the positive concurrence, at least the'pas-
sire assent, of the Other 'leading Powers of .the
Continent. The late revolution in the Spanish
-Cabinet, which .set all decency and all sound
political considerations at defiance, afforded the
convenient prete'xt so long desired ; and as .the
Spanish Government has shewn itself impervious
to con-in-on sense, and wholly incapable of ma.
4 tigiug the most ordinary interests, it has neces-

sarily relieved France from all the onerous parts
of the connexion. The latter is thus at liberty
to follow her own views, for it would be an insult
to her to require that she should model her po-
licy according to the senseless standard which the
Spanish Monarchy has set up for his own guidance.
From the alacrity with which the Ministers of
Charles X. have proceeded to act in conformity
to their long meditated designs, when they were
apprized of the dismissal of M. Zea Bermudez,
who enjoyed the confidence of all the Powers in
amity with Spain, it would seem as if they
received the greatest satisfaction from the event.
They can now lift'the veil, with which they tried
so long to cover their designs with respect to
South America ; and the world will be soon ap-
prized, in pll probability, of the real destination
of the squadron that has been fitting out for some
time at Brest, and which, it has been pretended,
is intended for scientific researches i❑ the Pacific
Ocean,and not for political overtures to the States
of the adjoining Continent.

[III,RNING CHRONICLE.]
The Paris Papers of Tuesday contain the com-
mencement of the proceedings against the Courier
Francais, An account of the proceedings of the
Legislature of the Netherlands, in which the
Chamber unanimously testified their gratitude to
their liberal and tolerant Monarch, forms the
best refutation of the charges of the wigged
Monlis of Dublin, who suppose that all the world
is in love with Priestcraft because they are. The
Catholics of the Netherlands find no fault with
their Protestant King.

Yesterday. was a most important day at the
Stock Exchange, th 6 settling day so long and anxiously looked
for, on account of the great depression which took place, Consols
commencing at 83, and settling about 84. The fluctuation in
the morning was from 83i up to 84i, and for the January Ac-
count in the same proportion a half per cent. higher. The
chising price for the opening in January was after being
85. There was much bustle among the jobbers and brokers.
Up to a late hour no defaulters were declared. -The Foreign
Stocks were comparatively neglected yesterday, on account of
the attraction of the settling in the Consol Market. Colombian
'Bonds were, however, at all prices, from 63 to 65, and closed at
64. Mexican 6 per Cent. Bonds, from 67 to 69. Brazil Scrip,
12 and 13 dis. In Shares there were no sales reported.—(loM.)

[THE TI M ES.]
'We hear that the interview of the Governor
and Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England,
with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on Wed-
nesday last, led, as we expected would be the
case, to nothing conclusive. The affair stands
over till the arrival of Lord Liverpool in town,
which, as his Lordship we believe has intimated,
will be on Monday next. Meantime it is admit-
ted that no hope has been held out by the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer of a favourable view of
the application whenever it shall be laid before
Lord Liverpool. On that point the few
remarks which fell from him were the re-
verse of encouraging. By their own conduct
the Bank Directors had brought themselves
into a situation too serious to be treated
with disregard, though the evil, in his opinion,
would work its own cure ; but, in any case, be
was not aware that assistance could be given to
them by the Government. By the terms of the
Bank Charter, it was imperative on that body to
make certain advances to the Government, who
in their claims on them still kept themselves
considerably within the prescribed limits ; and it
could not be permitted that the public service
should suffer detriment, because the Directors had
been guilty of indiscretion in the management of
their affairs. On some degree of merit being
assumed by the Governor and Deputy Go-
vernor of the Bank for the timely assist-
ance afforded by the purchase of the an-
nuities, to make good the Pension List,
when no other public body or associations
of individuals would venture to undertake it, the
Chancellor remarked that it was impossible to
treat it in any other way than as a private con-
tract, which had no connexion whatever with
their corporate privileges. After some further
remarks to the same purport, and an intimation
that no step would be taken of a definite nature
without the concurrence of Lord Liverpool, the
Governor and Deputy Governor took leave, and
returned to the city.

DYLORNING DER4,LD.3
The last accounts from Colombia announce that
Bolivar has been once more elected President,
with unanimity, of that young,. gigantic, and
growing republic. It is scarcely possible to at-
tribute these repeated elections, without compe-
titor, and without rival—and it Would seem, even
Without envy, to any thing but tmhounded public
Confidence, and the ascendancy of superior talent
and superior virtue. Ambition could not , be so
deep and crafty as to conceal itself so success-
fully and so long. Neither is it, by any means,
that the elections are merely ceremonial—for the
Vice-Presidents are changed and an active canvass
takes place through the departments. As little can
it be ascribed to military intimidation, though
at the head of the army—both he and the
troops are distant from, the scene, and could not
in any case act directly over so extensive a
sphere. It is his authority, not his, power,
that governs Colombia. This state of public
confidence, order,. and subordination on the _one
side—of virtue, capacity, and experience on
the other—and the progress which has been
made in organising society on a new basis,
makes the hope of, reconqueriug this State
at least an idle dream—and it seems.to be aban-
doned by Spain herself. She seems, however,
still clinging to Peru, and the Royalist General
Rodil, holds'oct in Callao against all offers.and
attacks of the Colombians.. But the fate of this
strong, if not impregnable. fortress, must neces-
sarily follow that of, the country at last, and Rodil
is Said to sustain the spirits, and, maintain thedis-
cipline of the garrison only by giving false repre-
sentations of the state of the interior, and publish.
iug accounts of victories pretended to
,I?e
,gained'
by the S.p.trOards in Upper
.Peru. Such,,at
are the aOftthnnts by the .United States' and Co-
lombian' 'Papers. An Evening Paper shows, OD
this subject an unaccountable insensibility to the
fidelity Of General to his Royal. Master,
King ferdinand,
.and a portentous sympathy
with the interests of the young Republics. This
Paper decidedly dphres 'that General Rodil

ought to capitulate, and no doubt, when the opi-
nion reaches him, he will do so, having then a
sufficient excuse and authority for his conduct.

[BRITISH PRESS.j
No course of conduct can be more impolitic in
itself, or more fatal in its consequences, if per-
sisted in, than that which is at present pursued
by Mr. O'Connell, Mr. Shell, and the rest of the
hot-headed Catholic leaders, who are daily beat-
ing the drum of rebellion in the ears of their
countrymen. Can they be so infatuated as to
imagine, that by having made common cause with
the Jesuitic party in France they will strike ter-
ror into the Protestant party in England, and
by alarm carry a full admission of their
claims ? Can they be so besotted as to sup-
pose, that by their patronage of the Etoile
they will be able to make head against the
public Press of this country, and bear up the Pa-
pal power in triumph? If it is from the armory of
treason that they might bring out their weapons
of attack—if they expect to achieve their vic-
tory by the aid of the ultramontane priesthood
and " an army of the faith," they will find
themselves woefully disappointed in their ex-
pectations. They may rest assured that, to
whatever conquests they may look forward, the
time is not yet come when the Protestantsof Great
Britain are to be intimidated by French Jesuits,
or overawed by any force with which Messrs.Sheil
and O'Connell can threaten them, even with the
Catholic Continent at their back. But they have
alr6ady done and said enough to shew what they
would do, were they in the plenitude of their
power. They have alienated their former friends
on this side of the water ; they have taught those
who, on the principles of abstract justice, were,
till lately, their advocates, to look beyond those
principles, and to mark well the actual pro-
ceedings of those leaders whose cause they up-
held—and they have thus taught them—by an
instruction which cannot err—to reflect on the in-
creased power they were about to concede, and
the fearful purposes to which—under their secret
alliance with the bigotted missionaries of the Pa-
pal priesthood on the Continent, which alliance
they now openly parade in the face of Protestant
Europe—that increased power might be pervert-
ed. The English Catholics, much to the credit
of their good sense and moderation, take no part
in the fierce contentions of their brethren in Ire-
land. They deprecate it as mischievous—they
disclaim it as hostile. Unfortunately, an Irish-
man has no such word in his vocabulary as discre-
tion—we speak, of course, with exceptions—but
such is the fact. On great occasions he can
never think but in metaphor, nor act but in
extremes. His mind seems impregnated with
a sort of gas, which floats it above the at-
mosphere of common sense. An Irish orator
never cares to reason ; his object is excitement :
his brain is a mould in which nothing solid can
be cast ; its contents, like metals in a state of
fusion, run into every thing, and over every
thing. Such leaders as Shell and O'Connell, in
a great political crisis, would ruin any cause and
any country.
Periculosm plenum opus aim tractas
is no warning to such men. The valup of the
stake never makes them a whit more concerned
about the hazard of the die.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, N0v.24.

This day was taken up with motions of no public importance

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.-COIiSITy. HARRIS.

Mr. HEALD interrupted the arguments of Counsel in a mo-
tion of Jackson v. Bourne, and expressed a wish that a day
might be fixed for hearing a motion of a pressing nature, re-
specting Covent-Garden Theatre. A stop had been put to the
proceedings before the Master, owing to some allowances which
the Receiver claimed, and the affairs of the Theatre had been
much affected by it. It had been recommended that the Re-
ceiver should make an application to his Lordship, and it was
expedient that there should be as little delay as possible. Per-
haps, therefore, his Lordship would appoint to-morrow for hear-
ing the motion.
The LORD CHANCELLOR asked what would become of the
causes of other suitors, if he were to hear this to-morrow ?
Mr. HEALD replied, that he had only obeyed his instructions
in making this application. Is was of course for his Lordship
to take any course he thought most expedient.
The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed his great unwillingness
to hear this motion in preference to those which had priority.—
" The time of this Court," said his Lordship, " has been taken
up a great deal too much in hearing these motions about the
theatres, and I have gained no credit by allowing it."
Mr. HEALD repeated, that he was only discharging a duty
which had been imposed upon him.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—UnIess you constitute me a Ma-
nager of the Theatre, I don't see how 1 can interfere.
Mr. HEALD reminded his Lordship of the reference which
had been made to the Master, and to the appointment of a
Receiver.
Mr. SITODEN, who was Counsel on the other side, saw no
reason why the causes of other suitors should be postponed for
the purpose of hearing this motion.
After some further conversation the question was dropped.
The parties connected with the Theatre were all in Court, and
seemed anxious to bring the matter speedily under the consi-
deration of his Lordship.

ABERNETHY V. HUTCHINSON.
Mr. tioRNE said, that he had to apply to the Court in this
cause, but was prevented by the absence of the Solicitor-
General. _

The LORD CHANCELLOR—What ! have we The Lancet
again ?
Mr. IloHNE—Yes, my Lord ; but I have the satisfaction
to tell you, that you'll have to hear only one Counsel on each
side.
