NEWTIMES. ----3 It is with pain that we feet . ourselveS compelled to notice the blood thirsty spiri inced by part of the English Press, on occasion of the late Rebellions' on the Continent. The King of Naples having been, in point Of fact, deposed by a band of traitors, sought the assistance' of his Allies to replace him on hisAhrone. At the special request of this Sovereign, ' and (as is now evident) with the approbation of the great body of his people, an Austrian army, disclaiming every hostile sentiment, advanced toward the Neapolitan frontier, to assist in re-:establishing order in rhe kingdom. At this period, a wretch, whose brntality can surprise no one, wrote as follows : ---‘6 If the recent news be true,- the Austrian battalions will meet with their deserts : that is to say, their blood, and flesh, and bones, will remain to fatten the lands, and to fer• the vineyards, whiCh' they are sent to ravage." "'That not a man -of them may escape,. not 'even a.single mart to tell the /ale, must be the sincere' prayer of every good man in the world-the man that does not wish for their total destruction 'must have a heart composed of stuff that can feel tenderness towards the devil himself,antl towards"nothing but what is wicked and cruel." "If the soldier§ of the Austrian be insensible to the dictates .of human stature, they are in fact brutes, and as brutes they ought to be considered and treated.": 44 Therefore, spare none, ()Sight to be the motto of the Neapolitans, let not'a man escape." In the bloodiest period Of the French Revolution, the infamous Robespierre-we know caused aiaw to-be enacted, that no quarter should be given to the English troops. This horrible Decree the French soldiers refused to ekecute, but it remains on record as a perpetual mark, devoting the monster's name to the execration of ages.. That a single miscreant should be fOund in England, avowing the detestable sentimenti-of Robespierre, is sufficiently disgraceful to our country ; but it is right that -the yet unviflared: part of our population should know, that that miscreant is Cobhett.  [THE TIMES] We never recollect a Committee, upon .which apparently so -much hang, excite so little interest, or afford so little. hope, as that which is now Sitting upon the agricultural distresses of the 'country. Their labours are viewed by-the rest of their fellow-subjects• in the same manner as a consultation of physicians upon an incurable case would-be contemplated by the family of. a dying man—as A.- matter of form, meant 'to satisfy 'or silence, without being useful ;, for, while the Committee has been consulting,.Ministers have been very actively getting their estimates through the-House of Commons atthe old standard, and thus destroying to the country the only source from whence relief could be drawn. It is to be regretted that the Committee did not. recommend a supply for the current wants of the State till its Report could be made, and thus would it have retained in its own hands those. means of • alleviating the public burdens which' are now taken' away.. But the fundholder is charged with being the great consumer of the national wealth. Undoubtedly, whether. in the case of a'natiOn or of an individual, the interest upon a debt contracted is a diminution of:the resources of the debtor ; but he should- have thought -of that when he took up the' loan. To abuse.the 'creditor now; for having trusted the Country heretofore,' somewhat resembles the morals of old Cobbett, the skeleton-dealer, who threatened to-drive Sir Francis Burdett to suicide for lending him mcmey,except that the Honourable Baronet: :probably 'expected no interest- on hisdebt; whereas it was- upon the assurance' of 'a stipulated interest that the fundholder ad= Vaneed.- his capital. •But still, for 'those who athocated: every loan, to begin now -and- abuse the. lender,: is. ingratitude as well: as injustice. Such men say, however,•that thepublic creditor receives more than his due, the'value of money being new'. greatly enhanced from various causes, but chiefly from the projected attempt of the Bank' to renew its cash payments.: A. moment's consideration, will-spew the injustice of this remark.' '. The greater part of the national debt was (as was unanswerably shown by a Correspondent its this'Journal with the. signature of 4' Durhain") Contracted before 1800 that is, before the first year-of the depreciation' of the currency::; for it was only in 1800 that"the value of-the Bank-note began to-sink from: that year, therefore., it was that:GOverninent first began the iniquity' of payin ba -in a thipreciated currency that creditor who had rnadeshiS advances in money of full value': and flroverninerit so Coritinue:d to pay the creditor in a depreciated currency the -interest upon more than half the-national debt advanced at par, for upwards 'Of eighteen years.: Certainly .the rest of :the debt was advanced by several -portions, and at different times, in depreciated-specie; but it is 'only for three years at the most that Governmentlas- paid Me interest.upon this-and the rest of the public debt, in money approaching to its full value." It is'clear; therefore,' that. the Ad'vantages 'resulting from the 'depreciation of the currency are infinitely on theside of Government. ,  ' Indian cure for the Ear-ache.----Take a piece 'of lean' Mutton; about the siie of -a large walnut, Put the fire atattdrfilt for some time, till it becotnetalniost reduced to:a cinder;` then put it into at piece of clean •linen', and'Squeeze it'until iothe thoiitUre 'is expressed; which' must 'be .dricipPed into"' the earn as hOt-aVare -patient can. bear has been tried M a family- atMa'ciraisOn:rnbre than one".instance -' i and ove mediate relief,' after: latidailuin-and other medi-cines had been ineffectnitkrapplied.
