SI1AIN.

From The London Times, September II.
The Spanish news, made public in ouI
paper of yesterday and of this morning
contains matter OF interesting reflection
We see for once, and almost for the first
time, since freedom wos formally proclaim
ed throughout the peninsula, an Executive
Government proceeding with sincerity and
energy in the spirit, and towards the pur-
poses for which it was instituted, namely
The protection of It's loyal subjects. II is a
melancholy fact, that whatever remains oil
sovereign power had been left by the Pat
riots in the hands OF Ferdinand since March,
| $40, the secret advisers of that mis- Judging
Prince had hitherto induced him to employ
FOR the overthrow of the national rights
aud dearly earned privileges, by the APP
polntment otlunctlonares throughout eve
~ province ofthe Kingdom, whose treach-
cry and hatred to the constitution, or to use
the mlldcst term, whose extreme lukewarm-
ness IN the support Of it, prepared an open
field for the intrlgues Gifts bitterestsnenies.
At no period did the Spanish Court select,
we will not say an honest, but rcsolute adj
mln'sira'lon, until the present, which was
indeed forced upon it by the Just resentment
of the people, after that attack upon their
liberties in which the Guards were defeated,
and the faction of the Services laid pros
trate. The tolerance and patience of the
constitutional Spamards, carried perhaps to
weakness in f,rmtr instances, was now at
an end. All the schemes Of the Court were
disconnected, except those only of which
the scenes We're laid among the recesses of
the Pyrenees. A patriotic Ministry was
nominated, not by the King, but for him.
The publication Of the public Offices, which
commenced at Madrid, was carried with
speed into the provincial towns and districts
and a general system of decision, activity
aud energy, succeeded To one of Disgrace
ful indifference TO, or criminal connivance
with, treason. Among the most conspicu-
OTIS effects ofthis reform in the Spanish Go
verrnHnt, has been the execution of EIio.
Flo WINS noted for his indispensable OPP
pre- sion, for his remorseless persecution OF
all who bore the name Of patriots among
the alenclans, over whom he was placed
MS Governor, sud forthe alacrity with which
he imbrued his hands in blood. He was
some time ago tried, and by the party whom
he served, Withdrawn from the hands Of
justice. AT length, however, the lsws have
oVertahen him. Being ordered for trisl by
the new Government, all the senior officers
who ought 10 have set upon his court mar
tlal, and who were resident at aud near Va
lencia, with scandllous cowardce or disre-
gard VI their honor, chose to fail sick, and
left the execution of that most urgent duty
to class of military Judges, of whom the
highest in rank was Lieutenant Colonel.
The Court, thus composed, opened its sit
tings ON the eth uIt.-and on the 2gth, al
ter the culprit bad delivered defence which
lasted four hours, he was unanimously con
demned to death.

DIR. ALISON'S SERMONS.

The following beautiful extracts are from the
Sermons Of DR. Archibald Alison, minister of the
Episcopal chapel Cowgate, Edinburgh. We have
seldom met with more thrilling strains of Christian
devotion than may be found in these rich, delicate,
and delightful essays.
.There is tide in human life season
when the eye becomes dm and the strength DECAYS.
and when the winter of age begins TO shed upon the
human head its prophetic snow. 1t is the season
of life to which the present (.qaltumn) is most
analogous; and much it becomes, and much it would
profit, you, my elder BRETHREN to mark the inst,uc-
tons Which the season brings The spring and the
summer of your days are gone, and, with them not
only the joys they knew, hut many of the friends
who gave them You have entered upon the au.
tumn of your being and whatever may have been
the profusion of your spring, or the warm ntempe-
rance of your summer, there is YET a season of
stiffness and OF solitude which the benefcence of
heaven affords you, in which you may mediate
upon the past and the future. and prepare yourselves
for the mighty change which you are soon to
undergo"
SIT is now you may understand the magnificent
language Of Heaven-it mngles its voice with that
of Revelation It summons you in these hours when
the leaves fall and the winter is gathering, to that
evening study which the mercy of Heaven has
provided in the book of salvation. And while the
|shadowy valley opens which leads to the abode of
death, it speaks of that hand which can comfort and
save and which can conduct to those green pastures,
and those still waters, where there is an eternal
spring for the children of God"
"When we look back upon the history of antiquity,
the prospect is like the waves of the ocean and
nations seen rising for the above their
ordinary level, to fall back again into The mass from
which they arose If we search for the causes Of
their fall, shall find them in their views and in
their policy. All of them, in their day. have had
their own deyices--sorne of them to enslaye the
people whom they guverned-some to extend their
power by the atrocities of conquest--others to
monopoze the commerce Of the world, and 10 be-
come rich by the oppression of all around them.
These mighty devices now past. The sleep of
many hundred years has buried their pride and
their guilt in oblivion and when we trace the
principles upon which they acted rejoice, even
now, at their fall and feel the justice ofthat law, by
which the counsel of God alone is destined to stand"
"Ihe world has seen many conquerors and des-
pots. II has wept before the march of temporary
ambitions and bled beneath the sword of transitory
conquest. But nature has re.assumed her rights :
and while conquerors have sunk into an eSecrated
grave, ana tyranls have persisted in the zenith of
their power, the Of have raised again their
detected heads, and peace and order and freedom,
have spread themselves throughout the world"
