RESPITE OP .EXCUTIQN.—On Fr:day testi•
night, an express, bringing a respite for Lowe and llensbeii,
who were ordered for execution at our late assizes, WAS received
by the active constable of our county gaol. from Air. Justice
Warren. We understand the application was made ikon) WA.

most praiseworthy motive: they sent a person express with the
petition to London, who, we. ore informed, followed the chief
justice to a watering place on the coast, an front thence again
to town, and after some deliberation, a respite, of 14 days
(that is, till Saturday week the 27th inst.) was obtaineti,.when
the last awful sentence of the law is directed, by an order at
the foot of the respite, to be done on the miserable men. We
are in possession of sonic very curious anecdotes relative to the
exploits of " Romper tame," which it would not
,at.preaent be
proper to publish, but which we may, under other cueurastan..
ces, be induced to lay before our readers. his adventures and
hair-breadth 'scopes" have not been surpassed since the days

THE LONDON. JOURNALS.

DAILY
Extracts from the Morning Papers, September 21.

THE Tom.;
The breach is every hour widening between
the politic of the Duke d'Angouleme and those
of the Madrid. Regency and its adherents. An
address has been presented from O'Donnel and
his troops at Salamanca, re-asserting the doctrine
of " Autocracy " in its moat outrageous form,
and menacing war against all who may be instru-
mental in putting restraint upon the wilt of Fer-
dinand, after he should have been released from
the Cortes. This threat can be levelled against
no power but that of the French army, who are
to receive the King (in the contingency of his
liberation) from the bands of his present keepers:
for it is to be presumed that the servile troops
would be commanded to declare war against
the leaders of servilism, the only second party
which would be allowed access to the King.—
Here, then, is a faction with whose true, cha-
racter it is not conceivable that the French Go-
vernment could have been acquainted before it
commenced the invasion—a faction, in opposition
to which Louis XVII[. will find it. an arduous
and ungrateful office to govern Spain ; and to
rule the Spanish nation by means of such a party,
a task no less difficult than revolting. What a
dilemma is this ! France occupies Spain to her
own incalculable detriment ; or, ceasing to oc-
cupy it, exposes t'o prompt destruction the whole
mass of interests for the sake of which she em-
barked in the war.

Cattyrtsit rat's.]
Friday's French Papers reached our office yes-
terday. The Moniteur contains, in its official
part, a dispatch from Nloncey, announcing the
progress of the column which had taken advan-
tage of Barcelona being again open by sea, and
landed at La Rocca on the 18th, under General
Fernandez. The relief of Figueras or Ilostalrich
was:supposed to be the object of the Constitu-
tional General, and the French Marshal busies
himself in bringing together various weighty rea-
sons why either must fail. The garrison of Bar-
celona, it appears, made another sally on the
10th. The war in this province has been main-
tained from the first with the greatest possible
bravery, skill, and perseverance. Catalonia and
its gallant defenders have been an example to all
Spain. Reports' were circulated on Saturday of
the fall of Pampeluna, and copied formally Itt a
Sunday Paper; but the intelligence appears as
yet utterly destitute of authority. Santona had
fallen, bid though Parnpelona was said to
much distressed for water, there is no foundation
whatever for the gratuitous account of its capita

[moatirso
When we had occasion to notice the passage
in Mr, (..aniting's late speech at Liverpool, havw
big reference to America' and England, that
" where a child; having perhaps displeased a
parent—a daughter, for instance, in contracting
a connection offensive to that parent's feelings,
some estrangement would ensue ; but after a
lapse of time, the irritation is forgotten, the force
of blood again prevails, and the daughter end
the mother stand together against the world "
we hardly imagined that the time was so near at
baud for imposing on the people of this country
the necessity of cultivating the friendship of our
American offspring as almost ess,ential to our!
own safety. It would appear that the Holy Al-
liance no longer deem it necessary to put the!
least restraint on themselves an account of Eng-
land, conceiving, no doubt, that the latter has
allowed the time to.go by when she could hope
to oppose them with any effect.—The evidence
for what we now assert is, we fear, but too satis-
factory. The Ultras boast of an arrangement
between the -French Government and the Re-
gency, on the subject of South America.—The
American Papers furnish the confirmation of
what we long ago stated more than once, that
k7rench Emissaries are at. work in the different
sections of that part of the world. Long before
Mr. Canning • thought of seuding an Agent to
Mexico, with a view., we suppose, to satisfy
himself as to the designs of our neighbours, the
proceedings of these Emissaries were khown to
several individuals of this metropolis. In a
-Bayonne article, 'of 12th of September, it is
affirmed that one of the Members of the Re-
gency (M. (;alderon) in a Privy Council held a
short time ago in the Royal Palace, Madrid,
after a tirade against the English Government,
very explicitly said, " rt is to our efforts, and to
the sacrifices of France, that we shall owe the
approaching triumph Of our cause ; and it will
threfore be for us to reap the fruits, and to induce
the Monarch, WIWe he is at liberty, to indemnify
France.''

[MORN tNO POST.'
We, received last night, by express, French
tlapers to the SOth instant. 'The ~/Koniteur of
Friday contains, we lament to say, a telegraphic
.dispatch from Bayonne, which announces the
.sureenth.r of Pampeluna. ThEi French artillery
is said to have ruined the citadel and silenced
its, tire, when both thetoWn anti' the citadel cd
,pitulated. The garrison, it appears, would not
join the Rebel Standard, but' preferred being
marched into France. The same M oniteur publishes
another Bulletin from Marshal Moncey, who
seems terribly alarmed at the unexpected land-
lug of a Constitutional body of 1400 infantry
'and thirteen hors.emen from Barcelona:in his rear.
Be httaches as much importance to the move-
ments of, this handfut-of men, et if they were
those of an artny,'and descants on the possibility
ocilkeir raising the blotkade of Figueras of Hps.
talrich, as if those plums -were not blockaded
by much larger, nuoibers. It 'appears as though
every Officer formed under the active and'heroic
Mina- had .itubibed with the enterprising spirit
the. Skill :of his- Chief ; for Brigadier Fer.
nandez, who commands this tittle troop, seems
to mancenvre among the 'detached bodies of the
French and the Sotdiers of the Faith-, with as
much ease and successes his great predecessor.—
Either the act ms which Moncey has had. with
the Constitutionalists, have impressed him with

an extraordinary dread of their valour, or else
his army'must have been reduced by incessant
marches and counter-marches, by disorders
and the sword, to a very inefficient condi-
tion, otherwise he never could have felt so
much terror at the appearance of so trifling a
force on his rear. The garrison of Barcelona'made
a general sortie on the 10th inst, and attacked se-
veral points of the French lines. Moncey boasts,
as usual, that they were ultimately repulsed, that
is to say, that having done the French all the
harm in their power, they of coarse retired
within their walls. This, which must be the
case whenever the garrison of a besieged town
makes a sortie, is used, by the French Com-
mander as a proof of victory, but cannot for a
moment blind those who look to causes as well
as to effects.

[NEW Timxs.]
The important intelligence of the surrender of
Pumpeluna is said to have been notified by a Te-
legraphic Dispatch received at Paris on Friday.
Of this event we have us yet no other intelli-
gence : it is, however, extremely probable.—
The garrison are said to -be prisoners of war.
The capture of Santona we have already no-
ticed. Cadiz, we earnestly hope, will fall by
capitulation rather than by assault. The
inevitable waste of human life which must
attend the capture, by assault, of so popu-
lous a place, cannot be contemplated without
horror. It is probable, too, that if matters
should be driven to such an extremity, there
would be much previous bloodshed between the
parties within the walls. Possibly the Royal
Person itself would be attacked. Not that we
conceive the Cortes, by themselves, or by a Com-
mittee, would venture on such an act; but indi-
vidual fury and fanaticism might be beyond con-
trout. We are well aware that all the Radical
part of the English Press would exult in the
murder of King Ferdinand, simply as an
act of regicide ; but on that very ground
we Constitutionally deprecate so fatal an
event. We say the Royal inviolability is a great
constitutional principle in our own Government,
which principle would be practically weakened
by the public murder of any lawful Sovereign.—
In the domestic relations of life, to see a parent
treated with cruelty is a great lesson of i►nmo-
rality to all children : in the political relations,
to behold subjects trampling on their Sovereign,
confounds and shakes the general sentiment of
loyalty in all countries. Accordingly, we always
the enemies of the British Constitution re-
joicing in the deposition and slaughter of
Princes by their rebellious subjects. Every
such example they regard as a precedent
to justify the contempt and hatred which
they labour to stir up against their own
Monarch and his Government. If persons would
reflect fairly on this subject, they would see the
true reason of nine-tenths of the declamation that
we bear against the Crowned Heads of Europe
in general. They are inulted, calumniated, and
vilified, not because'they are tyrants, for in fact
they are not such ; but because they are Kings.
This may be consistent enough hi avowed Demo-
crats ; but in those who have any real attachment
to the British Constitution, it is gross folly and
inconsistency.
