SPIRIT OV 1111 PUBLIC JOURNALS.

Intelligent men of all classes and 'parties are arming
their minds for the suggestion of expedients, by which
they may save the financial system of this country from
ruin. And who can be sue wised at such a direction
being given to the
public feeling ? For who can he
insensible to those prospects which glare upon us to
whatever side we turn ? With nearly nine hundred
millions of debt, and a rapidly falling revenue, it is
plain that no measures within the range of a mere tam-
pering, compromising, and palliating policy, can ever
secure us against a sudden overthrow of the whole
fabric of our national credit, at :the instant in which
any foreign state or confederacy may choose to threaten
us with a breaking, up of the peace of Europe. Not
for a single week after the commencement of hostilities
is it probable that the rotten system of the English
funds would survive. We beg leave to say, therefore,
that it is wise and patriotic for independent men to
anticipate, if possible, the danger, and to prepare the
means of establishing some improved security for our
existence as a state, before the dreaded hour shall ar-
rive, when all precautions will have become already
unavailing. However, it is but fair to add, that no
specific plan which we have yet been apprised of, does
more than attest the difficulty of the case ; while the
number of projects to which the few last weeks have
given birth, demonstrate how strong and general the
nnpression is becoming, that no common effort will be
sufficient to provide a full remedy for the approaching
evil. Undoubtedly, the enormous weight of debt
under which we labour may be said to constitute the
paramount mischief of our condition ; and it is one, of
which we lament to state, that so far as the Govern-
ment of the country is concerned, much more has
been effected in the way of aggravating its pressure,
than of relieving, us from it, in even the most mode-
rate degree. How to meet the taxes imposed on us
by this cruel mortgage on every thing living or valuable
wtthin the British dominions, and at the same time to
maintain in activity the commercial industry, whence
alone any large revenue can be raised, is a problem of
which we have never yet seen a solution in anywise
convincing: The usual practice, with all but Minis-
terial writers, is to cut the knot by the decimation of
national bankruptcy, or by proposals which are equiva-
lent to such a declaration, under less revolting names.
A pamphlet has been sent us, the author of which
seems well versed in the history of stir progressive
debt, as well as clear in the exposition of his facts, and
shrewd in his unflinching commentaries; but, after
hastening on to his prospectus of the financial panacea,
with an interest enhanced by the able manner in which
his develepement of the exigency and its causes had
been throughout conducted, we find that under seine
novelty of detail, and variation of form, as compared
with previous plans of amelioration, in principle it is
nothing more than an undisguised confession of insol-
vency, by acquitting the bovernment, the Bank of
England, and all other debtors in the empire, of their
obligations, on payment of one-fourth of the weight
in gold which constitutes the amount of their debts.
The scheme is referred to as being founded on some
communication which appeared in this journal at the
beginning of the year, from a gentleman of the name
of lteddell ; and Mr. Kitchin, the writer of the pam-
phlet now under consideration, thus builds upon the
text which he recalls to us :
" This is the basis of Mr. Reddell's plan contains
various propositions; the first of which is the ground of
the whole, and is in the words following :
" Let it be enacted that, on and after a certain day,
the sum of I/. in cash shall be considered by every person
throughout the kingdom as equal in value to 41. in British
paper money, of every description ; and that every person,
'esessoad after that dayrehall, pay and receive also in that
proportion; and that all British bills, notes, leases, bonds,
and peculiar obligations whatsoever, given or granted, pre-
vious to that period, shall he considered as founded on the
present nomitrel or fictitious valuation, and be discharged
according to law in like manner.'
" Here I must again express my apprehension that not
only I, but Mr. Redden too, will be thought to be insane;
and I fear the greater part of my readers will here be dis-
posed to throw down my paper and read no further. I
entreat them, however, to proceed :—Let us at least con-
sider the measure, and ascertain what the objections to it.
really are, bearing in mind throughout the principle I have
just stated as the basis of the plan.
" All the relative situations between party and party,
applicable to money obligations, resolve themselves into
that of debtor and creditor—such as buyer and seller, land-
lord and tenant, lender and borrower, &c.
"Any one of these classes may be taken to see how the
parties in each and every of them will, respectively, be af-
fected by the measure proposed, giving to the receiver the
option to be paid in gold or in paper.
" I will take the class buyer end seller,' as being the
most general.
" A. owes B. 1,000/. for goods sold. Now, if payment
be made in gold, the numerical amount will be reduced
three-fourths—the sum will be 250 sovereigns ;—if made
in paper, the numerical amount will stand as it did—the
sum will be 1,0001. B. the receiver, then has, in the one
case, 250/. in gold, and in the other case 1,000/. in paper,
in discharge of his demand on A. But as he (i. e. the re-
ceiver) rvill by this plan be enabled to employ this money
(whether it be 250/. in cash or 1,000!. in notes) at the same
respective rates of value at which he has received them, in
whatever way his occasions may require (whether in pay-
ment of any debt he may owe, or in purchasing any article he
may buy—or in making any investment, by loan or other-
wise he can suffer no loss or inconvenience whatever by
the alteration, nor can the smallest difficulty be experienced
in any money-transactions between persons in any relative
situation in which they may stand with_each other, as
no alteration in 'the price of any thing, or the amount of
any obligation, will take place—the prices of all articles,

That portion of the press which is ever ready to
sound the tocsin, and which seems to revel with un-
alloyed delight in actual Or possible calamity, has
al*ays an excellent opportunity, in the result of the
Quarter's Revenue, for the exercise of its ingenuity in
perverting facts. If the amount of Revenue exceed,
that of the previous return, it is the subject of ani-
madversion, as.evidence that so much the more 112t8
been wrung from a people already suffering too much.
If it exhibit a reduction, it affords to the thorough-
bred grumbler an opportunity for the melancholy
display of .bur fallen condition. If there appear an
increase in the dirty on spirits and tobacco, it is a
sign of the demoralization of the people. If, on the
other hand, there be .a decrease in these articles, it is
un account of the distresses of the working classes,
who, for the most part, are the consumers of them.
In short, the .fraternity of the dolefuls 'are never at
Fault ; When the Revenue exhibits the most flattering
increase, they discover that the'commodities: are not
consumed in the quarter in which the duty is paid,
and, therefore, that it is no evidence of our national
advanceinent; hut when there is a decrease, all this is
forgotten, end we are of course in the, high road to
destrnction. No one can deny them the merit of
making—

" The Nom appear the better rowan."
We hope, therefore, our readers will prepare them-
selves fbr this week's lamentations. Already our
lugubrious contemporaries are running a race to meet
imaginary trouble half way, and proclaiming, with a
loud voice, the approach of national bankruptcy and
ruin.—New Times.

Courrms Guiceim4.—l have seen, twice at
Torlonia's, and once at the house of the Portuguese
ambassador, the Countess Guiccioli, of whom Lord
Byron was so violently enamoured, and who lived with
him at Pisa and in other parts of Italy two or three
years. If a beauty at all, she is a sleepy beauty, but
her features are neither regular nor handsome ; she has
a very oval face, pliiinpclieeks, and a good skin ; her
eyes are soft but heavy, and her hair bangs in loose
ringlets down upon her neck. I cannot conceive 'what
Lord Byron saw to admire in her, unless it was that
her alternately languishing and playful manner might
charm his capricious taste. She has now a _shabby,
mean-looking Italian for her cavalier tervantes.......
Letter in Leeds Mercury.

Oh dear ! oh dear ! how can you say so, Doctor ?" cried
the coachman, interrupting him ; Didn't I tell you at the mo-
ment that it wasn't enough—that rroust have the remainder? and
didn't you reply that you would give no more, and that you lived
where I took you up ? I swear you did, and of course I under
stood that you meant to try the question before the Magistrate,
and I proceeded accordingly." '
Dr. Badham replied that he was ready to swear to the truth of
his own statement.

" Why," said Sir Pzraa LAURIE, " I confess his taking the
additional sixpence looks very much like a compromise.
" God bless my soul, your Worship !" rejoined the coachman;
" what was I to do? I was not to put my hand into the Doctor's
pocket and fish out my rights—that would have been sailed a
robbery; and if I bad been over earnest with my tongue, that
would have been called abuse ; and I should have been pull'd up
and fined 40 shillings, may be!" '
" You should not have taken the sixpence at all unless you
were satisfied with it," observed klr. lieresford, the Chief Clerk.

" How could I help taking it?" said the coachman—" the
Doctor dropped it into my band before I knew whether it wax a
sixpence or a shilling? and what was Ito do with it? Wu Ito
toss it back in his face, or chuck it into the street ?"
No answer was given to theme queer queries ; but a recapitu-
lary recrimination ensued, in the course of which Dr. annum
complained bitterly of having been taken into custody on such a
paltry charge. He affirmed that his non-attendance to the sum-
monses was not occasioned by any wish on his part tq treat the
summons of the Magistrate with contumely, but by his not bar
ing seen any summons until thirteen days had elapsed after the
alleged offence, " I remained at home thirteen entire days," paid
he, " perfectly cognizant of every paper left at my house during
that time, and. no summons wai presented to me.. On the thir-
teenth day, the coachman did call upon me with a gunmen', just
at a moment when I war going out of town, and I perhaps did
use some such intemperate language as that which he has imputed
to met and I think every person, now present must agree with me
that I had cause to be angry. but that a professional gentleman
should be arrested—taken into custody on such a charge, is really
beyond all endurance !",
_TI coachman admitted he had suffered eleven days to elapse
before he. laid his complaint ; but said he could not do it sooner for
want of tune.

Johnson, the notorious informer, made another exhibition at
this office in the line of his calling, on Saturday, having filed no
less than seven informations against licensed victuallers, for late
hours, gaming, and every other imaginary offence that his inge-
nuity could suggest or hia interests excite him to prefer.
Mr. Virgo, the solicitor, who has brought such ruin upon John-
son's trade of late, attended on behalf of the defendants.
The first information called on before Sir G. FARRANT and
Mr. CONANT, the Sitting Magistrates, was against Mrs. Isabella
Yapporko keeps the Blue Poeta, licensed house in Monniouth-
street.

Mrs. Yapp approached the bench, dressed as a widow, in deep
weeds, and by the advice of Mr. Virgo, pleaded " not guilty" to
an information charging her with keeping her house open at late
hours for the reception of others than travellers.
Johnson, on seeing Mrs. Yapp in the garb of widowhood, ad-
dressed the magistraosi, and said, that he begged to withdraw this
information : he did not know that Mrs. Yapp was a widow, and
that her husband was recently dead, or lie would not have laid this
information against her.
Mr. Virgo said, he would; not allow the information to be
withdrawn, because he would have it dismissed in a moment,
which must he the case now, as Mrs. Yapp had pleaded ; besides
they did not want any of 'Mr. Johnson's " tender mercies." It
was all nonsense to say he did not know Mrs. Yapp to be a widow.
What did hi suppose her to bewhen he laid the information against
Isabella Yapp ? Surely if he did not know her husband was dead,
be would not have done that ; but the fact was, this was a mere
show-off from Mr. Johnson, Mr. Virgo then took his objection
to the wording of the information thus Your Worships toe
that this information is laid against Isabella Yapp, and runs on
thus—for having (on a certain night) at late hours entertained
others than travellers in the house of him the said Itsbel4 Yapp."
(A loud laugh.)

FElrgli IN DUBLIN.—Wit lament . to erfind that,
fever is greatly 04 the increase in this city. There
can be no doubt of the fact, because the information
comes from the very best authority—the Board of
Health, and also from the Physicians who preside over
several -of the charitable institutions. It is impossible
to contemplate the alarming announcement of such an
'Hermit, without being impressed with the necessity
that 011ie immediate public measure must be taken to
arrest the calamity. Much has been done by esta-
blishing new but still the disease is found
to increase, and to draw within its vortex a greater
number of sutferera,Freeman'a Journal.

THAMES POLlCE.—Nobert Arkteright and George Law-
rear. e,weEe charged by .Captikin Aaken, pf the brig Three Johns,
from Wakefield, with robbing him of a considerable quantity of
wine.

It appeared by the evidence of the complainant, that on his last
voyage to Wakefield, he took with him twelve hampers of wine,
containing eight hundred bottles, ,addressed to a gentleman in
Yorkshire. On reachiog their destination there was found to be
a deficiency of '370 bottles, and suspecting the prisoners, he had
their (a nn and cheats searched, and found about seven or
eight bottles in them. The wine had previously been landed, and
the same opportunity was permitted the prisoners to land.any
portion they might have secreted. On being taxed with the rob-
bery, they admitted that they had taken eleven bottlem, but stoutly
denied having exceeded the number. They were fully committed.
