LONDON,
TUESDAY, JULY 3, 1821

-- • - -----
o Vr4nlifort Papers to the 24th instant, and
Lerman
-arid ccerman Journals, arrived last evening;
'La's
0-"fls,trlorning we received the French Jour-
riday and Saturday. Nothing of rno-
tleti` c'ccurred the French Chamber of Depu-
e,:s-v!itit Ihursday. In the Sitting of Friday, M.
1:14..txc, Reporter of the Committee ap-
Point
ed to examine the proposed law for pro.
ebgino.
lidthe Censorship on the Journals until the
61. next Session, presented his Report, the
:ding of which lasted nearly an hour, and in
1:1,4jell he discussed the question respecting the
LertY of the Journals in a constitutional
Point of view, and animadverted on the effects
l'nd Consequencesale of the existing Censorship.
le. stated that if the Censorship was abolished,
the J.ournals would then fall under the cognizance
of tke existing laws against abuses of the liberty of
the Press ; and contended that, if the Ministers
bought:those laws insufficient they ought to pro-
Pose a still more repressive enactment, instead of
tternanding the prolongation of the Censorship, a
liaur suspending one of the most valuable privi-
lieges guaranteed by the Charter. He then entered
p
4. to a variety of arguments, to slew the
iiri9-
I cy and injusticp 9f ,this law, 4nd added,, that

from the present to the next Session the Com-
mittee saw no reason to apprehend that the
liberty of the Journals would expose the Go-
vernment to any danger, and that a new law
might then be presented, if circumstances should
render it necessary. With a view of better pro-
viding against the abuses of the press, the Com-
mittee recommended that offences of the press
should be tried before Royal Courts, and not
before the Courts of Assizes. M. de IJAUI3LANC
finished his Report, which alternately excited
marks of approbation and murmurs, by proposing
the rejection of the law of Censorship.
No sooner was the reading of the Report ended
than a great number of Deputies from the right
and left sides of the Chamber entered their names
against and for the law, and it was determined
that the proposed prolongation of it should be
taken into consideration when the discussions on
the Budget were closed.

On the 12th inst. a popular commotion took
place at Toledo during a religious procession, ex-
cited by the anti-Constitutionalists. Several of
the most refractory were arrested, and order was
soon restored. It is reported that in consequence
of the events at Toledo the Archbishop of that
city has been banished.
The following are further extracts from the
Foreign Papers :

" PARIS, JUNE 29.—Yesterday the Chancellor and the
Secretaries of the Chainber of Peers, presented to the King the
Law respecting Ecclesiastical Pensions, adopted in the sitting
of Wednesday.
" Private letters from Russia stlte,- that the Russians appear
deeply interested in the cause of the Insurgent Greeks, and
wish their the most decisive success.

" The Emperor of Austria has conferred the Grand Cross of
the Order of St. Stephen upon the Ditke de 131acas, the Freud;
Ambassador to the Holy See, and upon the Marquess de Cars•
man, the French Ambassador to the Court of Vienna.

" BEnr.ix, JUNE 19,—Some individuals have been arrest-
ed at Magdeburg, charged with demagogical stratagems.
" Letters from Hanover state, that- the Princip;lity of East
Friesland, ceded by Prussia in 1815 to the King of Hanover,
is to he ceded by the latter to the King of the Netherlands.
" NAPLES, JUNE 13.—Several armed bodies of men have
shewn themselves in some of our Provinces. A priest, named
Blais commands a party in the Basilicate, and plunders the
public conveyances, carrying off every thing which belongs to
the Government. Strong columns of Austrians and Nepoli-
tans have been sent against these partizans. Numerous arrests
have again taken place. A second Anstro-Neapolitan ex-
pedition, consisting of four thousand men, has just landed at
Messina ; they will occupy that city, Syracuse, Noto, and Ca-
tana. The troops of the first expedition are distributed in
Palermo, Trapani, and Agrigentum.
" JUNE 14.—The Austrian force in occupation of our terri-
tory, exclusive of those garrisoning the fortresses in Naples and
Sicily, amountasto 25,000 effective men, who are placed in can-
tonments around the capital.
" FRANKFORT, JUNE 23.—The news from Albania be-
comes more contradictory. Ali Pacha is said not to have been
strangled, but to be actually engaged in organizing a powerful
army, for the purpose of expelling the Turks, not only from
Albania, but also from the neighbouring provinces."

German Papers to the 21th ult. contain letters
which state that negociations are oia foot between
the new King of SARDINIA and the Court of
Vienna, with the concurrence of Russia. Also
from Constantinople of the 26th of May, stating.
that most of the Foreign Ambassadors have de-
nied the right of the PORTE to stop vessels pass-
ing the Dardanelles ; that 911 the 17th May,
BEKER PACIIA, from Kulaga, arrived with 500
Asiatic troops, to take from the Yamaks the de--
fence of the fortresses at the entrance of the Black
Sea ; but that the Yamaks refused. to surrender
them, and that the Asiatics marched to Rhume-
lia ; that on the 19th, the TurkiSh squadron des,
tined for the Archipelago had put to sea ; that
three vessels filled with fugitives under the Rus-
sian flag had passed the Bosphorus ; and that the
Turks had been highly offended by this event.

It seems too evident that Spain is rapidly pro-
ceeding to the overthrow of Monarchy, as we
have long thought and often predicted. It appears
that in the Revolutionary Club (a suitable desig-
nation) in debating on the inviolability of the
KING'S Person it was proposed, that " the
inviolability should cease from the moment that
there was atl infracticu of the Laws or of an
Oath." It was also stated, that letters had been
found upon a Courier from the Royal Palace,
which contained the plans for a Counter Revo-
lution, which were to have been executed on the

15th of this month. , Who is so-blind as not to
see how easy it is to fabricate the violation of the
Royal oath, and the letters in question, and pre-
tend that they came from the Royal Palace?—
These artifices of rebellion were too successfully
practised in the French Revolution.

Boston Papers to the 231 May arrived this
morning._

-CAPE DE VERDS' RF.VOLUTION.-The march
of Revolution, though impeded- in some quarters,
is making progress in others. On the 23d
March, the troops in garrison at Bonavessa de-
clared the Portuguese Constitution to be the su-
preme law of the Cape de Vents, and on the 4th
A pril the troops of the Villa de Praya, St. J ago,
proclaimed, amidst the firing of " Viva

a Constitution !" which was -followed by a na-
_

tional salute from all the forts. The Governor,
finding himself unexpectedly deserted by his
troops, complied with the demand of a Committee
of Citizens, And submitted to the basis of the
Constitution. For many nights afterwards the
town was illuminated, and business suspended
for many days, to give place to the rejoicings.

[From the Boston P4er of the 22d May.]

SPANISH AMERICA.---Accounts from St:Ma rtha

have been received in this city to the end of
April. The Vice-President of the Congress of
Columbia, Don Roscio, is dead. Admiral BRION
had gone to Cututa to resign to Congess his com-
mission as Admiral. On the 17th April it was
published by beat of drum, that the Armistice
with the Spaniards was terminated, and hostili-
ties were to commence on the 28th of the month.
All European. Spaniards were ordered to leave
the country by the 26th April. In a few months
it is expected the whole country will be in pos-
session of the Patriots. The Royalist troops de-
sert to the Patriots every opportunity they have.
NEW ORLEANS, APRIL 28.—8 y the schooner
Favourite, from Madeira, we learn, that the
Primate Bishop of that Island had been sent off
a prisoner to Lisbon four days before the Favou-
rite sailed. The Prelate had at first refused to
acknowledge the new Constitution ; not satisfied

with this, he was plotthig to seize" upon the Go
vernment.

[From the Commercial Gazette of the 20th May.]
Captain STACY, who left Valparaiso on the
14th of Jan., states that the Andromache frigate
sailed a few days before for Callao, with Lady
COCHRANE as passenger. Lord COCHRANE was
stated to have gone in pursuit of two Spanish
frigates with part of his fleet.
The revolutionary brig Racoon is said to have
had an engagement off the Ilavannah with a
Spanish sloop of war, and to have had 40 men
killed and wounded.

VALPARAISO, JAN. 1 4.---Cap tain STACY states
that the British brig Rebecca with a caro, cap-
tured at Rico at the same time with the brig
C (171i011, of Salem, was immediately released on
the demand of Captain SEARLE of the British fri-
gate Andromache. No late news-from Peru.

The question of the QUEEN'S right to be
Crowned was again agitated in the House of Com-
mons last night ; when it was stated by Lord
LONDONDERRY that another Memorial from her
MAJESTY, praying to be heard by her Counsel,
had been presented yesterday morning ; and that
his MaJtsTy had been pleased to " consider that
application not as relating to a matter of right,
but as one of grace and favour, and that his MA-
JESTY had consequently given orders, that her
MAJESTY should be heard by her- Counsel."—
A decision as to the legality of the QUEEN'S
demand will therefore be made in the Privy
Council.—The advocates of the QUEEN seem to
rest her claim chiefly, if not entirely, on the
ground, that," from time immemorial all Queens
(of England) have been crowned,exccpt in three
instances, all of which admit of explanation
tending to establish the right." Now, without
meaning to anticipate the probable decision of the
Privy Council, or even wishing that the decision
should be against her MAJESTY, and without
presuming to be competent or qualified to pro-
nounce upon the legality or illegality of her
claim, we will venture to say that her MaJEsTy's
right to be crowned is not satisfactorily made out
on the ground of " immemorial custom" alone; and
that whatever may be the decision of the law, or
of the law authorities, the decision of common
sense, which is generally consistent with that of
the common law of England, must be, and is,
against her MAJESTY'S demand. When her M
J ESTY'S advocates rest her claim upom immemo-
rial usage, they seem to forget, or to exclude
from their consideration, the peculiar situation in
which her MAJESTY now stands—a situation in
all respects different from that in which by " im-
memorial custom," all Kings and Queens, all
husbands and lsives, usually lire. It has been
the " immemorial custom" for all husbands and

wives, with such exceptions only as have by no
means imptigned either the- propriety or . the
legality of the contract, to cohabit together ; and
the wife, during such cohabitation, is endowed with
certain privileges, performs certain duties, and
exercises certain rights, which by positive laws,
and " immemorial usages," aro .conferred upon,
belong to, and arise out ef- her relation to her
husband. Now, by immemorial usage, and-posi-
tive statutes, certain honours, dignities, rights,
privileges, and duties, devolve upon a .Queen
Consort of England cohabiting with her Royal
Husband ; but many of which, and particularly
most of those that arise merely from the ordinary
relation of husband and wife, necessarily cease
and determine from the moment that the parties
agree to separate, and to retire from the customary
cohabitation. And, the claim to participate in
the honours of a Coronation, on the part of a
Queen Consort not cohabiting with her Royal
Spouse, if grounded solely on the right-gained by
immemorial usage, does appear to us to be one of
those rights or privileges, of a purely lionorary,and

even domestic nature, which necessarilN are deter-

mined by the separation of the Royal Parties—by
their having agreed to live in a situation inconsistent
with that which immemorial usage has sanctioned
and established for the relations of husband and
wife, and having become, in most respects, an ex-
ception to the general rule. Let us apply this
reasoning to an analogous case in ordinary life.
A is a Nobleman of large property. B is his only son
and heir. Cis the wife of 8.--C brought no for-
tune to her husband, but A settled an income of
six thousand a year upon his son B at his
marriage. During the cohabitation of 13 and C,
the wife of course exercised all the usual privi-
leges of a wife ; and amongst others took her
proper rank and station at table, in the drawing
room,or otherwise, in the reception of her husband's
friends, whether on occasions of familiar intercourse
or of ceremony. Previous to the death of A the fa-

ther, however, from whom B has large expecta-
tions, B and C agree to separate. B settles
on C, for
,her separate establishmenq during the
life of his father, two thousand out of his six
thousand a year, with an understanding that her
allowance shall be proportionally increased when
B comes into possession of his inheritance. That
event at length arrives.=—B becomes heir to his
deceased father's titles and property ;::-he increases
his wife's income from two thousand to six thou-
sand a year;—and in due time goes clown to
take formal possession of his estates, to renew
such contracts as mere customary on similar oc-
casions, and to give suitable entertainments to
his friends and tenantry. Had C the wife con-
tinued to cohabit with her husband B, no dispute
could have arisen as to her right, founded on
immemorial usage, to participate in the pageantry
and ceremonies of these proceedings. But see
how the case is altered by the fact of the non-
cohabitation ! Suppose C to insist upon appearing
arm in arm with her husband to receive the
addresses of the tenantry,—or in .his drawing-
room to share the congratulations of his
friends or at his table to do " the ha-
flours- of the feast !"—Should she not at once
be told, " Your right to these real or 'imagi-
nary advantages, founded on immemorial usage,
necessarily determined when the cohabitation
with your husband ceased. The question is not
now one of right, but entirely one of 6 grace and
favcur.'—Your husband does not choose toappear
in public with a woman with whom he cannot
live in private ; and therefore you 'must quietly
abandon pretensions which are, both ill-founded
and indiscreet. You have assumed the title

•
which the lii c allows and cotitetg;—yod,havd
ceived the increased income necessary for the
support of your legal rank. Whatever else you
can chew yourself to be legally entitled to, or
whatever matter of favour and grace can consist,
ently with your husband's feelingS and sense of
propriety be granted, shall not be withheld ;
but against a public appearance with you he has
finally determined ; and a public appearance,
therefore, cannot take placel" It is not easy, of
course, in ordinary life, to find a case perfectly
analogous to that involved in the question of the
Coronation ;' but we do think, that if her MA-
JEsTY's claim rests on no better foundation than
that afforded by- immemorial usage, her claim
rests on a very unsatisfactor,y foundation indeed.

It would be a want of justice, as well as of due
respect for his MAJESTY, if we did not particu-
larly notice the gracious condescension and dig-
nified feelings which he has shewn in assenting,
without a moment's pause, to let the QUEEN'S
claim to participate in the Coronation be asserted
with all possible energy and zeal by her Lawyers,
before the Great Council of State. Without
meaning to throw any reflection on THE QUEEN
herself, how few husbands are there to be found
in private life, thijoughout the whole world, who,
after those infamous slanders with which her in-
judicious ad-vocates and admirers, certainly not
her real friends., have assailed his MAJESTY,wouId
yet manifest so total an exempti,on from such
feelings of resentment as are common to our na-
ture, whatever may he their rank or condition in
society ! •

The Earl of LIVERPOOL stated last night that
" all our branches of national industry are now
in a flourishing prosperous condition, and that
none of them is certainly in a bad state." Upon
this topic we shall hereafter advert at some
length. For the present, we shall only remark,
that, in a national sense, there is not enough to
constitute the prosperous condition of any branch
of industry, unless alltheparties interested in and
depcnding upon that branch are in an improving,
comfortable, and prosperous situation. 1 hus, there
may be large orders i❑ the hosiery trade, because
the price of hosiery has become exceedingly de-
pressed. From the reduction of the value of labour,
merchant and even the manufacturer may ob-
tain a profit upon the execution of their orders;
and so far, but no farther, the hosiery trade may
be prosperous. But, if the labourers, by far the
most numerous class of persons interested in this
branch of industry, be receiving an inadequate
remuneration for their toils—a remuneration not
only insufficient for the comfortable subsistence
of their families, but scarcely sufficient for the
mere prolongation of a wretched existence, it ap-
pears to us to be absurd to consider that branch
of industry, with an enlarged view to the real
welfare of the whole people, or even to the per-
manent advantage of any portion of them, as a
branch of industry which is in a prosperous con-
dition.

Mr. SCAR LETT is getting into strange inconsis-
tencies-on the subject of the Poor Laws. One
of his ai'owed objects, if not his principal object,
is to deter such of the poor from marrying
as are not certain of being able to sup.
port themselves and families. And yet, last
night, he intimated his intention to propose
that men having two children should be exempt-
ed from serving in the militia, in order that.
young unincumbered men might be Jot ced" into
the service ! Now, what is this but presenting
to the poor a threat with one hand and a bribe
with the other ? " If you dare to marry and get
children, and cannot find work to support them,
you shall starve; and, if you do not marry, and
get at least two children, you shall go for a sol-
dier!" The hitter proposition is a direct bribe
to do that which Mr. Scarlett is not only anxious
to prevent, but which he threatens to punish!
