LONDON JOURNALS.

(FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.)

[Morning Chronicle
Letters front Jamaica, of the 5i h September,
announce the arrival there of the La Pique- frigate,
with part of the specie detained at the Havannah
from the wreck of hia Majesty's late sloop Tay.
The Spanish Governor had directed the authori-
ties at Havannah to deliver up to the claimants
the sum of 453,272 dollars, as well as the gold
and jewels, at the same time so unlawfully seized;
but, in defiance of that order, the Havannah Go-
vernor has only returned part, retaining 74,542
dollars for duties and other charges. In conse-
quence of this, the proprietors of the cargo ori-
ginally seized, only now receive a dividend of
about 66 per cent. Sir HOME PoenAm was about
making a strong remonstrance respecting this dis-
graceful transaction, and it was expected he would
present an urgent demand for the restoration 01
the balance ; but little hopes were entertained at
Jamaica of his attempt being attended with suc-
cess. The owners will consequently have to apply
to Madrid for a fresh order. The whole value of
the property claimed amounts to more than half
at million of dollars.

THE QUEEN.

_" Eight o'Clnek, Oct. 21 .

" Her MAJESTY had another very restless night,
and both Sir Henry Halford and Sir Francis Mil-
t-Ilan were in constant attendance till long past
midnight ; when they retired for a few hours.—
On re-visiting the Royal Chamber this morning,
they found her Majesty still seriously indisposed,
and they delayed issuing the Bulletin beyond the
usual time. We regret to say, that her Majesty
remained in the same unfavourable state tip to
seven o'clock this evening. Not the slightest
amendment had taken place, and the Royal Pa-
tient was labouring under the most distressing
debility.—The Prince Regent arrived in the even-
ing, and having given audience to the Physicians,
his Royal Highness remained to dinner with the
Princesses. His Royal Highness's horses are or-
dered to be ready for his return to town at nitre
o'clock. The Dukes of York and Sussex also
visited the Palace, in the course of the day ; and
their Royal Highnesses both remained a consider-
Able tittle with their illustrious Sisters. Sir F.
Milman and Sir H. Halford both remain in at-
tendance for the ❑ight."

[Morning Post.]

It has been asset tell that there was a differ-
ence of opinion between the Commander-in-
Chief and his Majesty's Ministers respecting
the reduction to be made in the army. This
is wholly unfounded. On the contrary, Mi-
nisters and the Commander-in-Chief perfect-
ly agree in the policy, expediency, and neces-
sity of the scale of peace establishment fixed upon
for the army, which amounts to 81,000 men.—
'hen the great extent of our colonies is consi-
deted, the establishment is fixed upon at the
lowest possible scale, and every practical regard
has been evinced to the interest of the public in
the consideraimn given to this subject, both by
the Ministers and his Royal Highness —We have
also to contradict the report of the contemplated
resignation of the Dole of York, and the ap-
pointment of the Duke of Wellington in his room.
The terirement of his Itoyal Highness has riever
been conteMplated either by his Majesty's Ciu-
vernment or himself.

NIADRID, SLPTEMIILK c 2 1 .

Leery thing goes on in the way I mentioned
to my Imam". letters. An imprisonment lately
occurred which deserves to be reported. Don
T. Gallardo, one of the inhabitants of Campa-
nario, has just been taken into custody, for the
third time. The great crime of the prisoner is
his being the brother of M. Canard°, the libra-
rian of- the Cortes. That Gentleman had the
good fortune to escape from Madrid, when the
king entered, to the mortification of those
who wished to add him to the numerous vic-
tims of that period. in revenge for their
Oisappointment, the persecutors seized M. Gal-
lant°, junior, and threw him into a duogeoo,
where he was treated with great severity. The
cruelty of this transaction was most wanton, for
M. Galindo had been guilty of no offence what-
ever ; on the contrary, he and his brother had
given numerous proofs of their loyalty and pa-
triotism. Don T. Gallardo was often in great
danger, after the battle of 'Medellin, on account
of the resistance he made to the invaders. His sa-
crifices in the cause of his country, and his perso-
nal qualifications, rendered him so popular, that
he was elected Secretary to the Common Coun-
cil of Campanario, the duties of which office he
was discharging with general approbation when
the King arrived in Spain. On the intelligence
of that event reaching Campanario, he gave it as
his opinion in the Common Council, that it ought
to be celebrated, not merely with the ordinary
maths of joy, but by some really patriotic act.
On his motion a subscription (to which he was a '
principal contritintot) was opened for equipping
the regiment of Truxillo. Being appointed to carry
the amount of the subscription to the regiment,
he executed that commission ; but had scarcely
returned to Campanario, when lie was thrown
into pistil), where he remained for 21 months.
Ilaving obtained his liberty, he went on business
to the neighbourhood of Badajos, where he was
again imprisoned by order of the Marquis del
Palacio, Captain-General of Estremadura. The
pretext of this arrest was, that having approached
the frontiers of the kingdom, it was evidently his
intention to escape and join his brother in Eng-
land ; as if he could wish to abandon his family,
to share the misfortunes of a lotion' exile, who
is supported by the compassion of another ! His
present imprisonment is still more cruel. it is an
act which astonishes every one who knows him
for such has been his circumspection (for the sake
of his family), that he has neither written to, nor
received a single line from his brother, for these
four years. A well-informed person has, however,
fissured me, that this measure has been adopted
ill consequence of his brother having published in I

HER MAJESTY.—The following Bulletin was
issued this morning :

" LATE AND INTERESTING INTELLIGENCE FROM
THE SPANISH MAIN.

NORFOLK, SEPT. 15.—Captain Kerr, of the
British schooner Sector, has politely favoured us
kith a proof sheet slip from the Office of The
Trinidad Courant, dated the 29th August, which
contains the following highly interesting extract.
Captain K. has also handed us a file of the Courant
to the 2Gth of August
" TRINIDAD, AUG. 29.—0 n Friday the 21st
inst. anchored in this port, about ten miles to the
Southward, Admiral Brion, from Guayana, with
the squadron under his command :—Victoria,
Captain Cowie, flag-ship ; Columbia, Captain
Hill ; Spartana, Cipt. Ilavelo ; Favourite, Capt.
Bernard ; and having had a sort of neutral com-
munication with Admiral Harvey, proceeded early
next morning for his destination.

" A squadrilla of what they term their subtle
force, composed of gun-boats and flecheras, with
700 men of debarkment on board, commanded
by Commodore Diaz, and General Bermudez,
which had descended the river with the Admiral,
and debouched by the Cano de Macareo, and ren-
dezvoused at Point Icacos, were ordered to join
to the Westward.

" The result of this expedition was received
here yesterday by a canoe, and has been, that
Guiria was attacked at ten o'clock on Monday
night, the 24th instant, aad carried by assault,
with very little loss to the assailants, but a very
considerable one to the Spaniards, who fought
with bravery until the Favourite, having got close
in to the redoubt, and opened her fire from a
24-pounder on a pivot, loaded with grape,
they immediately fled into the interior with
the greatest precipitation, leaving behind their
arms, ammunition, and every thing, even to their
segars. The force afloat has also been all taken :
it consists of nine gun-boats, and some vessels
with private property, chiefly cocoa, of which, it
seems, there is a large quantity in the town, and
on the coast. The blockade being now raised,
we hope to see very soon the happy effects of a
free navigation, by the arrival of lots of cattle and
mks from Guayana and Civarapiche.

" Of the casualties in this affair, we have not
seen any detail ; but the report states generally
that they were very trifling on the part of the
assailants, but on that of the assailed enormous,
which, however, we may be permitted to doubt.
" P. S. Since the foregoing was prepared for
the Press, we have received a circumstantial ac-
count of the military and naval transactions which
led to the surrender of Guiria, by his Majesty's
ship Scamander, Capt. Elliott, who was sent there
on professional duty to the Admiral, and had an
opportunity of observing all that passed. The
land forces under General Bermudez, which
amounted only to 70 boys, instead of 700 men ;
but these young Republican heroes proved them-
selves fully competent to perform the work.
" We learn verbally from Captain Kerr, that
the intelligence received by the Scamander, rela-
tive to the above affair, was in s,bstance as
follows :—That frigate had been dispatched by
the British Admiral to demand from the Spa-
nish Commandant at Guiria, the release of
two English vessels improperly detained by
him. On her arrival in the Boy, Admiral Brion
was making his dispositions for attacking the
place. The Spanish Commandant refused to give
up the two English vessels, and the Scamander
stood out and lay off the harbour to recon-
noitre the engagement, which soon commenced.
Previously, however, Admiral Brion sent word to
the Captain of the Scatnauder to give himself no
concern about the vessels, as he would engage to
deliver them to him in the course of the day,which
be did. During the action, the Favourite (men-
tioned in the preceding account) got becalmed in a
situation which left her at the complete disposal
of the enemy, who boarded her, and massa-
cred every one of the crew. Soon after this
horrid act of barbarity, a breeze sprung up, and
the Admiral, in the Victoria, (not the Favourite
as stated above) was enabled to take a favourable
position, when he opened a tremendous fire on
the Spanish flotilla and batteries. In a little time
the fire of the Spaniards was completely silenced.
Those at the batteries flew iu all directions, while

those the gun-boats were indisci intioately Putt.

" Captain K. states, that the universal ieirre
sion at Trinidad was, that the Patriots load
soon be in undisturbed possession of everY
of territory in Venezuela. Ile also menti°9ss
fact, by no means unimportant, that in an csl.
change of communications between the Britisi,
Admiral and Admiral Brion, the former addressel;
the latter with his official title of "
Commander-in-Chief of the Naval Forces Of the
Independent Government of Venezuela," thus re•
cognizing the Independence of the power under
which he acted.
