THE LONDON JOURNALS.

IATIIACTS FROM Tur. DAILY 'MORNING PAPEIti,

August 21, 1822.

-IMORNING Pon.]
The earth has now closed over the remains of
the Martinis of Londonderry, and the man who
succeeded 'the Pitts and Foxes in the post of
public duty, of difficulty and danger, now shares
with them the grave of honour, which the country
bestows upon those who have served her well.—
Take but a few steps, and you will have trodden
upon the dust of the three mightiest Statesmen
by whom the. affairs of England have been con-
ducted. Look abroad, and you will see that the
tenants of so small a space have moved the world
by the strength of their genius, and bound it in
the chains of their policy. Yot will learn in the
history of their lives the Utmost extent of
human powers—you will read in the short
epitaphs at your feet the extreme nothing-
ness of human grandeur. We give in another
part of our paper the details of that simple
tut solemn ceremony by which " dust is re-
tarned unto dust," and the living render to the
dead those charitable offices which they know
they wiil soon want themselves. On this occa-
sion all publiC pomp was wisely discarded, and
those Ns ho attended came to relieve their hearts
by a last tribute- of respect and attachment to
their friend—not to enjoy a pageant : and never,
certainly, was any scene more truly affecting than
that which took place in the Abbey, when the
body of the departed Minister was lowered into
the grave, amidst the tears of those colleagues
who had for so many years shared his labours and
his cares. Such an unanimity of feeling and
grief would have become contagious even to
the most bitter political enemy, whose heart was
not closed to the sympathies of our nature. Nay,
a generous foe would have possibly been still
more overpowered by his emotions than a faith-
ful friend; for a thousand considerations would
press upon his mind from which the latter would
be free. He would doubt whether his hostility
had been well founded ; he would fear that it
had been expressed with undue warmth ; he
would feel the recoil of every harsh word that he
had used, of every charge which he had lightly
ventured to make, as that of so many acts of in-
justice towards the Dead, and his sorrow would
be deepened by the afflicting reflection that he
might thus have contributed to hasten the appal.
ling catastrophe which he joined in deploring.

[THE TIMES.]
At an early hour yesterday morning, as will
be seee from our report of the ceremony, the re-
mains of the late Minister for Foreign Affairs
were deposited in Westminster Abbey. The
body of the Noble Marquis was interred by the
side of Mr. Pitt, whose patronage he had enjoyed.
:end whose policy he professed to imitate, but
-whose name, whether for good or evil, will
swallow up that of a thousand such disciples.
The policy itself, vigorous as it was, though im-
provident, mischievous, and futile as it has proved
itself, derived its reputation from the manly
character and rhetorical ascendency of that indi-
vidual by whom it was suggested and enforced;
so the() llicehold ers rather than Statesmen who have
succeeded him owe not merely their name but their
political existence to an assumed admiration of his
errors. That system, under the effect of which the
country now groans, will fasten itself in the eyes
of future generations as an indelible appendage
to Mr. Pitt. Lord Londonderry and the rest
will be, happily for themselves, forgotten. Such
is the true relation in which this subaltern and
secondary Administration stands towards its
haughty original. The history of this last funeral
pageant may in one respect be rendered a me-
dium of useful instruction. Lord Londonderry,
was by official authority buried in the great na-
tional receptacle of the ashes of our Kings, our
patriots, and heroes. His body was attended to
its last abode by much of the rank and power of
the empire, and consigned to the earth amidst the
unaffected tears of private friends, relatives,
and servants ; but, painful to relate, amidst the
coarse exultation of the populace ! To say that
we have been grieved and shocked and disgust-
ed by the last recited fact, is merely to put on
record our fellow-feeling with every civilized
and honourable mind in the community. There
is hardly an instance of more barbarous and un-
manly triumph over a fallen enemy by the most
savage people. There never was offered a more'
offensive or more disgraceful outrage to the sot-
rows of the living, or to the defenceless dead.
The private character and noble virtues of Lord
Londonderry were such as would in ordinary
cases have disarmed every vindictive sentiment.

[MORNING HERALD.]
The funeral procession and burial of the late
Marquis of Londonderry took place yester-
day. Several of the Noble .Lord's Colleagues
in office stood over his grave, and beheld
it close upon him for ever with strong emo-
iioD. Indeed, a feeling of sadness and regret,
beyond even what is usually inspired by so me-
lancholy an occasion, pervaded not alone the
friends and connexions of the deceased, but all
those who formed part of the procession ; and the
countenances of all who witnessed the cortege, as
it passed, bore an expression of sorrow or of
morunful respect. The pomp and parade, which
naturally attended remains so illustrious, seemed
to make scarcely any impression. It is painful
and humiliating that there should be any ex-
ception to this manifestation of general good feel-
ing. Such, however, is unhappily the fact.—
When the funeral reached Westminster Abbey,
some disgraceful shouts were uttered by per-
ons, who formed no part of the assemblage
attending the remains, but who had been waiting
there for the arrival of the procession. This
was, indeed, shameful. It was an outrage upon
the national character of Englishmen, for gene-
rous and compassionate humanity. Such brutal
conduct befits only a savage of the woods.. It is
monstrous in a civilized country. But there can
Le little doubt that there are very few, even of
the lowest description in England, capable of
~.uch callous barbarity. The very populace would

disavow them ; and a strong sentiment of indig-
nation and disgust was felt by all those who
heard their scandalous and unmanly shouts.—
Thete are few instances on record of such cold-
blooded barbarity and baseness.

[BRITISH PRESS.]
t had been originally understood that the fu-
neral of the Noble Marquis should be as private
as possible ; but this intention, if it had ever been
seriously entertained by his friends, was totally
abandoned, and the last sad honours which are left
to friendship to bestow upon departed merit,
were in this instance as impressive by their pomp
as it was possible to make them. The Ministers
of the Crown, the Foreign Ambassadors, consider-
able numbers of the Peers, and of the Members
of the House of Commons, attended upon this me-
lancholy occasion to mark their respect to the me-
mory of the deceased, and the occurrences acquir-
ed a deep and painful interest from the unequivocal
tokens of sincere regret which many of his friends
and colleagues shed upon his grave. Deeply and
unaffectedly must Lord Londonderry have been
esteemed and beloved by his colleagues and
friends, when we find them so little capable of
controlling their feelings, as to give vent to their
tears in the midst of a vast multitude of people, and
during the solemnity of a public funeral, where
they were appearing and acting as principal
characters. Lord Liverpool, the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, the Lord Chancellor, and even
the Duke of Wellington, paid to the memory of
their departed Colleague this proud tribute of
their affection ; and there were, we think, very
few persons present at the funeral, of ingenuous
and honourable minds, no matter what might
have been the colour of their political senti-
ments, who did not experience some momen-
tary pain as they viewed the mournful procession
passing over the same scenes where the Noble
Marquis had himself appeared a very short
time previous, in the vigour of mental and bo-
dily health, as the most impressive figure in
the gorgeous pageant of the King's Coronation.
It is a painful part of our duty to be compelled to
notice conduct on the part of some of the multi-
tude who followed the procession, that not only
evinced no share in those kindlier feelings to
which we have alluded, but that was totally
inconsistent with the ordinary decency which is
generally observed upon such mournful occasions.
At the moment of removing the body from the
hearse, some of the rabble who crowded about
the entrance to the Abbey muttered a shout or
exclamation that was not meant to convey honour
to the deceased. It seemed to be a cry of exul-
tation, as if they felt a joy in the untimely death
of this unfortunate Nobleman, and took this
sad occasion to testify their hostility towards the
political views which had distinguished the Mi-
nisterial career of the Marquis of Londonderry.
We feel shame and sorrow in noticing this out-
rage against the common decencies of society.—
Death is commonly regarded as a great conci-
liator, but in the death of the Marquis of Lon-
donderry there was something which ought pecu-
liarly to have disarmed every angry or unkind
feeling towards the deceased.

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]
We received the Paris Papers of Sunday, last
night, by express. The French Chambers were
dissolved on the 17th. In the Chamber of Depu-
ties, the Cots Droit (says the Journal des Debats)
separated with cries of Vive le Roi; the left re-
mained silent. The Constitutionnel says, that
some of the left called out after Vive le Roi, and
also the Charter. A letter from M. de Santa Rosa
to the Minister of the Interior affords a striking
proof of the meannesses to which the present
French Ministers can descend. The Minister of
the Interior is represented as having uttered a
deliberate falsehood in the Chamber of Deputies,
with respect to the Piedmontese Refugees, who
have in vain applied for a passport to Eng-
land.--A letter (said to be from Pera) in
the French Papers, and dated the 15th ult.,
gives an account of great disturbances at
Constantinople. Letters were yesterday re-
ceived from that city, dated the 18th August,
which make no mention of disorders of any kind.
We refer our readers to our City Correspondent
for the intelligence brought by these letters.—
The recal of Count Lutzow from Constantinople
on account of peace being fully restored (stated
in an article from Vienna of the 10th in our ex-
tracts from German Papers) harmonizes with
that intelligence.

[NEW TIMES.]
We yesterday received some interesting com-
munications from Spain with respect to the new
Spanish loan, of which so much has lately been
said. Some particulars are communicated in the
following extract of a letter received by an emi-
nent mercantile house in the City :
" For some time past it has been expected that sr new loan
for the service of Spain would be immediately introduced into
the foreign stock market, although it is already overburdened
with such securities; but the cause of the delay has been care-
fully concealed from the public eye until this moment. It
should seem that the delay does not arise from the Spanish Go-
vernment not wanting money, but from the exoioitant price
which the contractors demand for it. The agent of a French
banking-house has of Bred to take the loan, but upon terms 1r
unfavourable, that, poor as the Spanish Treasury confessedly -is,
the Government was obliged to reject them. For the loan of
13,000,000 dollars, paying 5 per cent. ann. the Parisian banker
offered 38 per cent. only, or in other words, for the 13,000,000
dollars in bonds, they offered only 4,940,000 dollars in cash.—
The taxes which are raised in the more tranquil provinces are
applied to the necessities of the local authorities, but they do
not furnish more than oee•fourth of the amount wanting to pay
the troops, and for other immediate necessaries. Not a rial
reaches the seat of Government at Madrid, where the great
dearth of money is seriously felt. As to the revenue of Spain,
it exists only in theory ; the exorbitant duties levied by the
Cortes having thrown almost the whole of the trade into the
hands of smugglers."

As far as the state of the Capital itself is con-
cerned, the intelligence, which reaches down to
the Bth inst., is of a confused and uncertain cha-
racter. Indeed, from the present state of party
feeling in the provinces, it will be some time be-
fore any regular communication can take place
between Spain and France, or this Country.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, AUG. 20.
THE CONCLUSION OF THE SITTINGS.

At about a quarter past 11 o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR
came into Court, dressed in deep mourning, after having at-
tended the funeral of the late Marquis of Londonderry.
Mr. HART said he had an application to make to the Court,
which was of a pressing nature ; it was for an injunction to re-
strain a party from negociating certain bills of exchange.
Mr. WETHERELL said he had to make an application of a
still more pressing nature, which was, therefore, entitled to
precedence.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that if the; Counsel were
satisfied, he would take the affidavits in both cases home, and
endeavour to decide between the parties without the necessity
of having Counsel; he (the Lord Chancellor) acting as Counsel
on both sides himself.

Mr. HEALD stated that he, too, had an application to make
for an injunction to restrain a party from injuring a coal-mine ;
and requested that his Lordship would take the affidavits in
this as in the other cases.
The LORD CHANCELLOR—I will do as I said—take the
affidavits home with me and read them. I cannot sit here
after to-day. After ten months severe and incessant labour, I
am quite exhausted and unable to go on with business, without
some respite. Had this not been the long vacation, I should
require an interval of a week to recruit myself, and then' I
would return to Court ; but as it is, my faculties are too much
harassed to proceed any further without some intermission ;
and I am not going to sacrifice my life for the suitors of this
Court.

In a few moments afterwards,
The ATTOREY-GENERAL rose and said, that it was the
general wish of the Bar, which they requested him to express,
that his Lordship would now close his sittings. After his Lord-
ship had been so long harassed by business, and particularly
after the distressing duty which he had just performed, the bar
requested that he would not add to his fatigue by deferring any
longer to close his sittings ; especially as a few hours longer
could not materially advance business, although they might
press heavily upon his Lordship, exhausted as he must neces-
sarily be.
The LOUD CHANCELLOR replied with considerable emo-
tion, his Lordship's eyes swimming in tears :—" I have ever
in the course of a long professional life cherished the warmest
affection towards the bar ; and I receive the expression of this
wish as a proof of a return of that feeling on their parts. I
feel it most sensibly, and shall continue to recollect it with
gratitude."
His Lordship, however, continued to sit for a short time
longer.

IX THE SCATTER OF THE EARL OF PORTSMOUTH.
Mr. TRESLOVE stated, that he was with Mr. HEALD in
this case, and it was impossible that the affidavits in support of
the petition could be answered by his client, without their being
first referred to the master for impertinence. It was usual that
a motion of this kind should be made by Counsel outside the
bar, and the duty therefore fell upon him.
Mr. HART said, that his Lordship would read the affidavits;
and he would be the best judge of their pertinence.
Mr. TRESLOVE thought this a motion of course : for, after
the affidavits were referred to the Master, they would, on his
report, come before the Lord Chancellor in the shape of an
appeal.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL offered to hand the affidavits
to his Lordship's officer, Mr. Hand.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, he might do so when the
other side were in full possession of them. In cases like this,
his Lordship thought it his duty to read the affidavits, in the
first instance, on which the application was founded.

PILKINOTON, DART. V. SMITH, BART., AND OTHERS.
In this case an application was made by Messrs. HART and
BARBER, on behalf of the guardians of Anne Pilkington, one
of the infant defendants, under the following circumstances, as
stated in the petition, and the affidavits filed in support of it :
In the month of July, 1811, the late Sir Thomas Pilkington
died, leaving four infant daughters, his co-heiresses, of whom
the defendant Anne is now about 17 years of age, and entitled
to a fortune of 60,0001., subject to a couple of annuities. In
1813, her paternal uncle, Sir Thomas Pilkington, and her ma-
ternal uncle, Mr. Tufnell, were appointed her guardians by
this Court. She had been residing for the last eight months
with her grandmother, Mrs. Tufnell, at Springfield-place, near
Chelmsford, where she became acquainted with Mr. Philip
Bennet, the younger, of Bougham, in Suffolk, who, about
three months ago, applied to her guardians for leave to pay his
addresses to her. They, however, did not consider him an
eligible match for their ward, and therefore declined to en-
courage his overtures. On last Friday the young lady dined
at the house of Sir John Tyrrell, Bart, at Boreham, near
Chelmsford, in company with her grandmother and other re-
latives ; and in the course of the evening she contrived to
' withdraw herself from the rest of the company, and eloped
with Mr. Bennet, with whom she was seen travelling in a gig
with the utmost expedition ; nor has either of the fugitives
been since discovered. The petitioners conceived it their duty
to state these facts to the Lord Chancellor ; and prayed that
his Lordship would be pleased to make such order as he should
think proper.
The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered, that Mr. Bennet should
immediately restore the infant defendant, Anne Pilkington, to
her guardian, Mr. Tufnell, and that he (Mr. Bennet) should
attend his Lordship on the next seal.
The Court will not sit again before November.

INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, AL-G. 20.
'William Yale came up to be heard on his petition, and was
opposed by Mr. Cordell and Mr. Huxley. Mr. Cordell stat-
ed, that the insolvent applied to him to take a stable for five
horses, representing himself as a gentleman of fortune, and say-
ing that two persons who accompanied him were his grooms,
and giving a reference to two persons of his own name, who kept
a cheese shop in Barbican. Mr. Cordell made inquiry of the
cheesemongers, who confirmed the insolvent's account of him.
self, adding, that he kept race-horses, in consequence of which he
let him a stable at 201. a-year, but never after saw him till yes.
terday in Court. The insolvent's associates brought horses to
the stable, and occupied it a year and a quarter without paying
any rent, and then ran away. Mr. Cordell, on inquiry, found
that the persons who used the stable were swindlers, who dealt in
horses; that the cheesemongers were the insolvent's own brothers ;
and that the insolvent, at the time he took the stable, was lodging
in a garret in White-horse court, at Is. 6d. a-week.. Mr. Hux-
ley stated, that he was a wholesale glover, and that the insolvent
in July last year applied to him for a supply of gloves, having,
he said, just taken a shop for the sale of such articles in the
Strand, and referring him to a brother who lived in Sweeting's
alley. Mr. Huxley made the inquiry, and was assured that
the insolvent was commencing business with a good capital, in
consequence of which representation Mr. Huxley gave him
credit for gloves to the amount of 711., for which he then took
a bill at two months. The insolvent was very anxious to get
more gloves before the bill was due, but Mr. Huxley refused
giving any until the bill should be paid ; and just as it was
coming due, the insolvent cleared the shop of every thing, and
absconded in the night. Mr. Huxley arrested him as sooni as
he could. The insolvent, in answer to all this, said, that he
had taken the stable for a couple of Gentlemen of his acquaint.
arice ; and with respect to Mr. Huxley's debt, when he (insol-
vent) found that no further credit would be given, he thought
it useless to continue the shop, and took the stock to Bristol,
where a friend of his sold it for their mutual advantage. The
money was all gone. He admitted that he had pledged 15
dozen of Mr. Iluxley's gloves almost as soon as he bought
them. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS, after sonic animadversions
upon the dishonesty of the insolvent and his associates, ordered
that he should not be discharged for 13 months after the filing
of his petition.
