THE USURY LAWS.
The followitia• are extracts from a pamphlet
bY a " Lawyer," on •the bail policy of the partial
repeal of the Usury-laws:—
The principal arguents brolight forward in support
toifanthoisf naroanseurr,e were, that it - -Id resilitate the eircula-
and be more beneficial to borrowers and
fieonseqesntly to trasle and commerce, than the expensive
nds of granting annuities, or the taking of goods at
orbitant prices in part upon discounting bills—evils no
doubt of great mtsnitude.
Pirst, with respect to the increase of the circulation.
When it is considered how many actual usurers and ex-
tortioners existed before the firs` partial repeal, and how
dogs` more would have existed but for fear of the law ;
`icq's it require much sagacity to prove that these
NI, ."'"ns iramediatel3 after the first partial repeal in
.834, commenced their well-organized operations against
their
fellow-men, and have continued them to the present
moment.

'ie eumnlate their respective hoards in preference to pay-

ney 'in the usual modes of trete or commerce, or of ad-
vancing it in the ordinary way. Some have their hoards
the amount of 1 0,000/., some more some less, but every
one to a considerable extent.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS

FROM TIIT: DAILY PAPERS' O'F 'YE6T4RDAY.
GLOBE.-IVe do not expect that any regular discus-
sion will now take place berore the close of this Parlia-
ment on the Corn-law question. The Opposition fought
shy of such a discussion, when it was offisred them, for
reasons which, we doubt not, will be appreciated by
the public. They " die, and make no sign"—no sign but
the incidental utterances of their more impatieet Mem-
bers in either House, and the sustained and systematic
extravagaucies of their newspaper organs. We lieve
lately given some specimens of these—one of which,
from the Standard, we gave from memory, only in sub-
stance. Our Contemporary somewhat complains of this;
and we take the occasion to correct our citation. Wc
stated that the Standard asserted England would neither
lose any wealth nor any persons of the slightest use to her,
if all the manufacturing towns and districts were swallowed
up. The Standard's exact words were, it appears, as fol-
lows ; and we cannot but take shame to ourselves for
not having remembered such words with more ac-
curacy.- The Standard merits the whole honour of
an exact transcript :—" England would be as great
and as powerful, and all useful Englishmen as rich as-
they are, though one ruin should engulph all the
manufacturing towns and districts of Great Britain."
:Such then are the extravagances which are uttered
on one side of this question. We confess we are sorry
that some exaggerations are uttered on the other. We
are confident nothing can serve our cause so surely as
the plain unvarnished truth. We are sorry, therefore,
to hear a prominent friend of the cause, like Mr. Hume,
state, that " the landed proprietors had, during the last
four years, received every year, in • consequence. of the
rise in the price of corn and other articles •of food, a tax
exceeding fifty millions sterling, being more than the
whole amount paid towards the wants of the State. It
was useless to deny that the landed interest received
fifty millions per annum for the taxes on food." It must
be, indeed, useless to deny such statements-to those who
can seriously make them. Nothing but the haste of
debate can account for Mr. Hume having done so. For
our own part we deprecate all such useless. exaggera-
tions ; let those indulge them whom a conscious wrong
and weakness in . reason make desperate and reckless
in assertion. We have no need of them.
STANDARD.—We hear of monopolies, but this is
the giant monopoly—the monopoly by the capitalist of all
the profits of labour, industry, and enterprise. But one
thing is exempt from that grasping monopoly—the pro-
fits of the land ; and of them the capitalist hopes
to possess himself, by the aid of those whom
his success must reduce to a condition worse
than that of even the Brazilian negro slaves.
'We shall of course be taunted as . levellers and revos
lutionists, as enemies of property and order in main-
taining these opinions ; but, besides that we are careless
of reproach with truth on our side, we can answer that
our part is strictly defensive. We ask to deprive no-
man of .what he possesses—let the moneyed man enjoy
his money, let him use it as he pleases, so he use
it not to the injury of his neighbours and
country ; hut when he becomes the aggressor—
when, not contented with the protection which the
law affords him, he claims the right to rob one class of
his fellow-citizens, and to throw another into the
most abject and the most oppressive slavery, and to reduce
his country to a condition of miserable dependence, he
must not complain if he is told that he is worse than use-
less—that he is at best but a tolerated nuisance—the
only prosperous man whose prosperity adds nothing
to the good of his country. The landowner or farmer
" who makes two blades of grass grow where but one
grew before," is, in his degree, a benefactor ; the
scholar or scientific man, who adds to the knowledge
or to the power of his fellow-citizens, is a benefactor
of a higher order ; but in what . respect does he be-
nefit the public who 'causes two thousand infants
to be ground in the mill this year where hut
half the number were ground last year. He
makes a profit of the inhuman trade no doubt ;
but who shares the profit with him ? It augments his
hoard ; it enables him to make poverty poorer by bidd-
ingvse
• ainst it in 'every market and every pursuit of life ;
or it extends mill-grinding and infanticide. Enough,
however, Of the general question, enough, we .mean, for
a newspaper—for we are far from thinking that
enough has been said for the instruction of the
public. No opportunity, we think, ought to be lost for
exposing the fallacy that a nation cannot become rich by
her independent resources, or for demonstrating that it is
only by independence of other nations, both as regards
food and employment, any country can be securely great;
and, consequently, that the whole commercial policy of
our empire ought to be to insure that independence by
gentle and gradual means.
COURIER—The Anti-Corn-law League is an atro-
cious conspiracy for the reduction of wages,—for grind-
ing the faces of the poor—to which the enactment of the
barbarous New Poor-law, so boisterously bawled
for by the sante conspirators, was the first acces-
sory step. Its avowed object was to induct the
poor and working classes into the use of a coarser
kind of food ; to ascertain, by a persevering course of
horrid experiments, the least possible quantity of this
coarser food by which soul and body could be
kept together, so as to establish one important element
of calculation as to the largest reduction of wages which
could be safely undertaken, so as to extract a given
quantity of labour from the human machine. The next
step is by the abolition of Corn-laws to cheapen bread,
by which another element of calculation for the further
reduction of wages is to be arrived at. The last and grand
consummating element in this iniquitous calculation is,
to cause a constant plethora of supply in the labour
market, which would leave the operatives wholly at
the mercy of the employers. This, too, is to be a
supplementary effect of Corn-law abolition, which
by throwing the land out of tillage must necessarily
throw the agricultural labourers out of work by the
hundred thousand. These unemployed labourers will
naturally resort for work and food to the manufacturing
districts, where, coming into competition with the more
skilled operatives, they can only hope to displace them
by offering their services at half or less than half
wages. Assuming that the quantity of work, or the
production of manufactured articles, remains the sense,
it is clear either that the skilled manufacturing operative
must be compelled to accede to a discount of wages to
the extent, or, on recusancy, he. will be discharged,
and change places with the before starving and unem-
ployed rural labourer. The fact is, however, that the
quantity of work or manufacturing production will not
remain the same ; for by the displacement of agricul-
tural labour, the throwing the land out of tillage, and
the ruin altogether of the landed and farming in-
terest, the home consumption of manufactures must
be diminished to all the frightful extent, never to be re-
placed by a corresponding increase .of foreign consump-
tion. For what can the serfs of Poland or of Mecklen-
burg and Pomerania ever consume with wages at 4d.
per day 9 This is a plain statement of the case, which
•
can hardly fail to come home to the understandings of
the manufacturing operatives. Let them not lay the
flattering unction-to their souls that raw rural labourers
could not attain to the requisite manufacturing skill for
ejecting, by underselling, them.

EXTRAORDINARY CASE.
SPANISH SWINDLERS.

The soi-disent Marquis d'Albora!and Chevalier Joseph
Speroni, of whose condemnation by default, on thz, 26th
ult., by the Correctional Tribunal of Blois, we have given
an account, having moved in arrest of judgment, were
again brought before the same tribunal on the 4th inst.,
to undergo a full trial, and as the summary of the in-
dictment, as given by the public prosecutor at the hear-
ing, furnished us with fuller details of the extraordinary
and eventful career of these adventurers than we were
before in possession of, we return to the subject. D'Albora
is a fine man, tall in stature, with a martial air, and a
remarkably quick and brilliant eye. He was dressed in
black, and conducted himself with confident assurance,
but without insolence. His associate, Speroiii, on the con-
trary, was the very type of our friend Bertrand, the
humble attendant of the notorious Robert Macaire.
Among the articles brought into court to be produced in
evidence, was a splendid uniform, richly embroidered with
silver, and a cross of the order of San Fernando. From
the statement of the substitute of the Procureur du
Roi, we collect the following facts :—D'Albora was
born at Genoa, in 1788. In 1812, he was a lieutenant in
the French Imperial Guard, but • in that year deserted,
and was admitted by the Junta of. Cadiz as a captain in
the Arragon Hussars. Here he remained till 1814, when
he was arrested, and confined in the castle of Badajoz.
Being released by the amnesty of 1814, he was, in June,
1815, admitted into the King of Spain's Dragoons ; but
in 1816, in consequence of his vicious conduct, he was
discharged from the regiment, and sent out of the country.
In the year 1819 he appeared in Paris, and for the first
time assumed the title of Marqnis, and the military rank
of colonel. In December, 1819, he was a prisoner of
state in Ivree, and in 1823-in the fort of Saint Charles,
at Fenestrelle. From 1824 to 1828 he was travelling at
Jerusalem, Napoli de Romania., Alexandria, Beyruth,
Samos, and Smyrna. He pretends that during this pe-
riod he was serving under General Fabvier, but this
officer denies any knowledge of him. In 1828 he
returned to Genoa, and in December of the same year
he received a passport for America. At the
same time the Sardinian Minister of Foreign Affairs
wrote ! to his Consul at Bordeaux, warning him that
D'Albora was no marquis, but a man of bad and immo-
ral character. In 1829 he fell in at the Havannah with
Speroni, who was his fellow countryman, and was sent
by his friends out of Sardinia to save him from the con-
sequences of some political delinquency. From this
time the two have been inseparable. In March, in 1830,
they were at New Orleans, whence they went to Chiapas
in Mexico, under pretence of serving against the Spanish
expedition then m preparation. At Parisapa, being
taken for a spy in the service of Spain, he was assailed
by the populace, and so severely treated that he lost his
right hand, which was carried in triumph- through the
streets. Being rescued at last, he went to Tonald, where
he obtained letters of introduction to Santa Anna, and
went to Mexico to solicit means to go into Greece to
join, as he stated, his old companions in arms, in fighting
for her freedom. In this it appears he failed, as in
June, 1831, D'Albora and Speroni embarked at Vera
CrUz for Bordeaux, where they arrived the following
August. Here they contrived to delude and obtain from
the Sardinian Consul a certificate that they were po-
litical refugees, and thereupon received the Government
allowance of three francs a-day. They • went to reside at
Moulins, where D'Albora was admitted into the first
society, and excited great interest, by affir.mng that he
lost his hand in fighting for the Polish revolu-
tion. In 1832, D'Albora obtained permission to come
to Paris with his Fidus Achates, and for a time made a
grey t display of fortune ; but at length it was ascer-
tained .'hat they lived by swindiing, and in May, 1833,
they
re,,.•,ed orders 1.0 quit the capital. In July they
embarked at Calais

the
so,•_disunt Marquis took .the Gist

steps for becoming a eitiaen of the United States.
At New York he proclaimed a resolution to go to
Texas, and lend his aid in maintaining its indepen-
dence ; and was artful enough to obtain . letten of re-
commendation to that country from several American
Generals of celebrity and in fluenee. D'Albora and Speroni,
however, did not avail themselves Of the:ll ; for they stopped
at New Orleans, thence went to visit Charlestown, and
afterwards traversed the. island of Porto Pico, in every
direction. In November, - 1833, they embarked at Cabo
ltojo ; and haying, in February-, 1837, reached . G ibraltar,
afterwards visited' Cadiz and Seville; ' where they ,v(--re
again stopped and sent back to Gibraltar. They next
made their way over to Algiers, where taro- at first were
Well received, and allowed rations ; but v: ere soon de-
tected, and made off to Toulon, and thence to Marseilles,
where D'Albora, by assuming the character of an Ante-
rican, procured from the Consul of that country a pass-
port for Spain, which enabled hint and his companion to
reach Madrid. Being once more routed out, they
again went to England. At the close oflB3B, being
at Portsmouth. the captain of a French chasse-maree
agreed. to take them on board, and on the 2d Ja-
nuary, 1839, the vessel was driven, by stress of wea-
ther, into a small port on the coast of Finisterre. From
thiSMoment-IY.Albora began to perform a new charac-
tor, and declared himself to be a Spanish refugee colonel
in tire. service of Don Carlos,- and a 'devoted victim to that
Prinee's.cause„ having, he said, made great sacrifices to
it of advantages arising from his birth as the son of a
Viceroy of Peru, a Knight of the Order of San Fer-
nando, and other Mgh distinctions, assuming all the
haughty demeanour -of . a Castilian grandee, and thus
presenting himself •at Archbishops palaces, Noblemen's
chateaux, and other elevated mansions. He received
large contributions, but uniformly through . the medium
of his confederge Speroni, who every where appeared
as his nephew. Thus, he found himself installed for
weeks at. a time in -the first houses at Morlaix, Caen,
Dunkirk, and Lille, at which . last place, however,
he found his star on the wane, as the Prefect gave
him an order to leave France. Not many months
afterwards, he made his re-appearance in Brittany,
where he married the girl Victorine, who, dazzled
by - the title of Marchioness, followed • his fortunes
till his arrest at Blois, where, as we have stated, she
was involved in the prosecution, but, having shown that
she was an innocent dupe, was acquitted. Having, in his
last excursion, run through Belgium, Cologne, Mayence,
Manheim, Cassell, Altona, and Hamburgh, he Once more
re-entered France, and, in August last, was. at Rotten,
where he formed even more brilliant connections than
before. - The Duke de Crillon not only supplied him with
money, but permitted him to bury in his own family vault
a child, of which the unfortunate Vietorine was delivered
at Altona. Many other legitimists lent their aid to the
'support of his establishment, in commisseration of his
sufferino-s, as they believed, from his fidelity to his
rightfulking. At last -he reached the end of . his
present career. Leaving Rotten for Bordeaux, they
passed through Paris, and arrived at Orleans, where a col-
lection to a considerable amount was made for them on
the faith of the letters they brought, but, on reaching
Blois, this stupendous bubble burst, and they were all
arrested as they were , entering the diligence to go to
Tours. D'Albora, with his wonted assuran- maintained
his identity as marquis and. colonel, and denied every
point that made against him, bnt all his allegations were
unsupported by evidence, and most of them contradicted
by unimpeachable documents. His acts of swindling in
Normandy, and the other parts of France, were proved
by personal witnesses, as well as the actual though sub-
ordinate complicity of Speroni. The Tribunal conse-
quently declared them both guilty, and condemned D'Al-
bora to be imprisoned for two years, and Speroni for one.

any change, we fear the wheat will suffer. A gentleman

The accounts from all Farts of the country are
most promising. for the cause of "No monopoly." The
public plunderers are finding no other favour from the
people than thee: gold can buy, and they rely upon in-
timidation and mulue...ialluence for votes. In Somerset
the prospects of the people are, upon the whole, very
gratifying.—,SonterAt County Gazette.
The chances, amounting to absolute ceita:ntv,
of defeat at Westminster, have, it is reported, induced
Sir J. Graham' to abandon the idea of attempting a con-
test for the representation of that city. The Right lion.
Baronet has therefore erased " Westminster" from
the heading of his carefully prepared address to the
" worthy and independent electors ;" and is suppoSed
to be now watching.; with no ordinary anxiety, the state
of things in Marylehone ; where, if the folly of the
Liberals will allow hiM, he thinks there is a prospect
of slipping in, by means of a schism which is as insane
in those who cause it as it is injurious to the common
cause. In this case, the weakesi; of the two Tory candi-
dates at present in the field is to retire ; and, by a des-
petate
eftOrt, the Marylebone Tories hope to' carry the
two seats. We give this as the opinion of persons who
affect to know something of Sir James Ql•alitan's move-
ments. The conjectures are, at least, probable, and
ought to warn the parties whose obstinacy thus. encou-
rages the common enemy to come to an immediate ar-
rangement, by which the undivided strength of the
Liberal party would • be 'brought into the field, and vic-
tory secured. At such time as the present, the man
who refuses to forego personal considerations for the
public interests, is a traitor in disguise.--Globe.
TILE CENSUS.—The enumerators have had
considerable difficulty in Brighton, as in other places, in ob-•
taining correct returns for taking the census, the papers being
lost, improperly filled up, or the parties refusing to answer the
questions. One cue has excited some interest from the high
spertability of the party. The enumerators being unable to
obtain the required information from Captain Fuleher, of No.
8, Regency-square, they applied to the Magistrates for a sum-
mons against him, which was granted, and an officer despatched
to serve it. On taking it to the house, the servant told the
officer that he W 23 ordered not to take it in, and therefore
should not. The (Slicer then laid it down in the hall and the
servant" obeying orders," took it up and threw it into the
square after him. The Magistrates on being informed of this
strange conduct, ordered another summons to be served on the
Captain personally if possible, and intimated their determina-
tion to inflict the full penal!y for the offence.
