[.horning Chronicle.]

By the Esk sloop of war letters have been re-
ceived from Kingston (-at/mica) to the Ist of
October, inclusive. They contain no Colonill
information ; but, referring to advices from Santa
Martha of 24th September, they state, that tins
Spanish Viceroy of Santa Fe had issued a Procla-
mation, commanding that ten foreit4nets, chiefly
Britibh Merchants, should (pit Santa Martha
immediately. Their names are subjoined to the
Proclamation, and a special notice was served on
etch, ‘vith the exception of two, wl.O were en-
abled to obtain further indulgence, to depart the
country within 15 (lays.

[Morning Herald.]
TIIE QUEEN.

" liew; Eight o'Cork, .Vov.
" 'Notwithstanding the apparent relmxation in
the suipton•S Of her al aJESTY'S diSCASe, during
Ole latter part of yesterday, sir! again became
feverish and restless before ten ; and her
cough, wi:h its concomitant pain on the side, was
shortly SS violent as ever. In consequence, the
REGENT again delayed his departure, and
reports wet e mole to his Royal Highotss, every
half hour, on the state of his afflicted parent.
" The warm bath was again resorted to, and by
almost constant application some little amend-
ment took place towards t we've o'clock ; and his
_Royal Highness having conferred some time with
Henry H.tkord, set oil for Carlton house,
nhont half-past t‘velve.
" Ni tleury Halford was the only Physician in
attendance ; for Sir Francis Milman had left the
Palace for his seat at Pinner early in the evening,
as her niieSty tippeared so much more composed.
Sir lienry did not rptit the ante-room of the royal
chamber the whole night.
" Up to seven this night her Majesty continued
in a state of great suffering and debility, and there
was every reason to apprehend a still worse n'ght
than the preceding ones. The Prince Regent had
not arrived at seven, but reports of the state of
her Majesty were sent to his Royal Highness re-
peatedly the course of the day,"

*sale, ave yet farfter from tile scene of. ac-
tion than was necessary, for they are said to have
been at Rome, Patis, and Munich, all inland
places, from which not even a vessel of any burden
can be sent out. But the detection of a corres-
pondence with people at these places, and having
reference to Buonapnrte's liberation, certainly
lays just ground for imposing more rigorous re-
Itrictions, and adopting more strict precautions
on our part, if we think them necessary.

THE ACT OF INSOLVENCY.

FOIL THE SUS.

Ma. ErWrog,--1 really wish your Correspond-
ents, who increase, and write so touch against the
malpractice of the Insolvents' Court, would carry
their complaints before the Gentleman who pre-
sides there ; and not covertly before the public,
in this reputable Paper. since, instead of correct-
ing an alleged grievance, they irritate the minds of
many, about they know nut what, and known or
imagined only by themselves. Remove the cause
of evil, and evil, as an effect, trill cease ; but
par,,c-rc to spread an alarm, without point-
ing out the specific objects of danger, is like a
beaten drum, all noise without, and emptine,s
within ; or it is lucre smoke, without the appear-
ance of file ; non jumurn ex folgore.
To point out corruptions and misfeasances,
whether produced by a loose state of morals, WI -
gralley, or want, is certainly invidious. The
crookedness of practice is most nototions when
compared to tie ride of right; and to see the
clearness of The spring raises the strongest satire
against those who pollute it. This tray be ap-
plied in some sense to all Lotman intercourse.
Alankind in every situation complain, more or
less, of eve!) other's ways, and are alike com-
plained of. So creditors, in proportion to their
disappointment, vociferate vindictively against
debtors, forgetting that they often exchange their
characters. Creditors of to-day become debtors
to-morrow, and each are in arrear at the same

(init. Those, also, who are discharged ur►rler
Bankruptcy or Insolvency become creditors
rind debtors again. This entitles them to their
mutual mercy ; but unhappily, like rogues, the
greatest call names first) and throw brick bats at
the heads of the least.

Is there less iniquity carried into effect among
the parties and their agents in the Insolvents'
Court, base as it is, than in the Courts of «'est•
bluster Hall? Let your Correspondents alisvrer
this if they can. It is true there are not a Priddle,
a Potter, an Aylet, a Crossby, or a Vaughan, of
noted names to disgrace them ; but much is it to
be feared many are in practice equally worthy of
censure and chastisement.

Debtors in confinement are discharged or re-
manded according to their deserts ; and nothing
is lamented but the mode, under this complex
and troublesome Statute. It is this very Statute,
and not tl►e cases, that is objectionable; and no-
thing but its repeal or amendment can work a
cure. The Legislature meant it as a benefit; but
like an over portion of poison in medicine for a
dropsy, it kills and does not relieve; agrescitque
medendo. To be well is to keep out of the Court,
which is as full of evil as Pandora's box, without

its contents at the bottom. Exeat aula qui cut
ease plus,

In short, to alter the ways of men, however
they may be restrained from evil, and the amount
be diminished, is vain. It is to embrace a cloud,
and it is as vain as it would be to expect a reform
of the works of an unerring Con ; to give a se-
cond birth to nature, or a union of the poles. We
must therefore submit, and take the ways of men,
and the things of the world, as we find them ;

pursuing thegond for the sake of goodness, and
avoiding the' evil with abhorrence. IVO7I ignara
