THE LONDON JOURNALS.

DAILY
Extracts from the Morning Papers, September 12.

[bIPHNING CHRONICLE.]
The few letters received by the post of yester-

40y. from the northern provinces in Spain, are
altogethersilent on political topics, the writers
'help/ afraid of: alluding to any other subjects
that .those connected with mercantile business,
o gerMul.und systematic is the plan of espionage
antl,Vefigeance pursued wherever the Royalists
have, establiihed their sway, more particularly in
those parts where they are not overawed by the
presence of the French commanders. In Bilboa
they have invented a new process of torturing
their 'political enemies. They unceremoniously
seize the person of any ind►vidual towards whom
they bear enmity, and having no horse-ponds in
the.way, take him at once to the harbour, where,
bolind with cords, they drag him through the
water till he is nearly drowned, then cast him
on the sands, where they leave him. This,
they say, is what the Liberals deserve for
Singing to them the Tragula song, when they
bad the upper hand. The fact is, the French
have generated in the Peninsula a state of poli-
tical anarchy and civil war, the consequences
of which are truly dreadful. They have over-
turned one Government, and it is utterly out of

their power to substitute another, whilst in the
mean time the party holding the ascendancy give
themselves up to all kinds of excesses. They
are answerable to no one, and act constantly
through the instigation of infuriated Priests.—
The exercise of the laws is suspended, and
however great the outrage complained of, no re-
dress is to be had. One letter particularly al-
ludes to the gross deception the French had
practised throughout the country, by putting
forth the most positive and solemn assurances that
the negociations with the Cadiz Government were
so far advanced as to require nothing more than
the preseace of the Duke d'Augouleme in Anda-
lusia, to ratify the arrangement in due form.—
This stratagem had been practised with the ut-
most success, and the inhabitants, who had no
means of ascerta►ning the truth, the French. being
in possession of all the channels of communica-
tion, had been led to believe that, if they con-
ducted themselves peaceably and quietly, they
would soon be freed from the presence of the in•

vaders, whose intention it was speedily to with-
draw to the Ebro, and thence to France. This
deception is said to have given rise to the Armis-
lice of Liallasteros, contrary to the opinion of his
Officers, who are represented as among the most
staunch Constitutionalists in the country.

[MORNING. POST.]
At a late hour last night. French Papers arrived
by express, but without bringing the official, or
indeed any details of the capture of the Trace-
dero. The meagre statement of the telegraphic
dispatch stilt remains, therefore, the sole authen-
tic record of that event. Private accounts how-
ever have reached us from a most respectable
source, which inform us that although the Tro-
codero fell on the Nlst ult., the attack really
commenced, as it had been originally announced,
on the 25th ; so that the enemy had had six
days }lard fighting before he could obtain pos•
session of a point which, even if wholly gained,
could have no decisive influence upon the fate
of the pending operations against Cadiz. The
ilioniteur of Tuesday contains an oficial Bul-
letin from Marshal Lauriston, which gives
the particulars of a successful attack on two
of the suburbs of Pampeluna. Some idea may
be formed of the disposition of the inhabitants
towards the French and the restoration of Ono-
Jute Despotism, front the fact of their having
barricaded their doors so strongly, that the sol-
diers of the enemy were obliged to cut them
flown with hatchets before they could penetrate
into their houses. The only advantage obtained
by the possession of these suburbs, is, according
to the. Marshal himself, the facility which it gives
to his Engineers to 46 make reconnoissances quite
at their ease." lie does not mention the loss of
the Constitutionalists, and is, consistently enough,
entirely silent with respect to his own.

ENEW Times.]
A resolution has been taken by the American
Government, which though it is the just and le-
gitimate consequence of the principles avowed by
almost all the European Governments, no one of
them has ventured to adopt—it is the declaring
by law the Slave Trade to be Piracy. Of course
This 'declaration can affect only subjects of the
United States ; but with regard to them, we ap-
prehend it wholly annihilates the protection of
their national character, so that if an American
Slave trader should be captured by an English or
French cruiser, the American Government would
not in any way interfere to save him from the
late which might await him by the law of France
or England. We cannot conceive any good rea-
son why our own and every other Government
which has renounced the Slave Trade should not
join in adopting the American principle. The
Diplomatic Ministers of the United States, it is
said, have received instructions to communicate
their law to the different European Governments,
anew request them •to pass similar laws, the
consequence of which would be the certain and
entire abolition of the Slave Trade ; for no one
would venture to embark in it if declared piracy
all over the world.
