THE COMMITTEE desire to inform the Public , that purchases of articles most wanted by the Spanish Sol. den have been made to an ettentproportioged to the amount of the Subscription. Meetings have been called in different parts of the Empire, aid sdicriptions have been entered Into, the amount of which is not yr ascertained. The Committee have also been informed, that ohm arc intended, from which considerable additions to the pre - sm.. rund may be expected. Tle Committee are anxious to Impress od all the inhabitants of es.t ::::.511 Empire, that much is still required to enable the nu mnus levies or Spain to take the field. Tae very reverses which have taken place in that country call for WA:lntl aid and increased exertions. It is not the character et the l'dysls'a Public to desert a great nation in the time of its grtrs.st recd. • treachery and excesses may have been committed in a me aner,: of aberse fonune; but it is impossible that such a spirit ear. be seaeral among a people who have been ever remarkable for elevation of sentiment and scrupulous honour. Theirgallantry and devotion to the cause in which they are ep rged c:unaot, however, become availing, without those supplies sstick are necessary to give them effect. With such suppliell Commii:t.e believe they ultimately will prevail; and they tryst that the British Public will evince the deep anxiety it feels ic this most important struggle, by farther liberal and timely suisncee.

Every person who has compared the two Lists, must' have been struck with, the countless Errors and palpable Blunders contained in a Work pretending to an official character; and which certainly possesses no other claim to the notice of the Public, than from its having impudently pirated the exact Title-page aid Plan of an original and indepen dent Work. _ _ _ The genuine and original Monthly Army List may this Month be distinguished from the spurious one by its plan of Corunna ; and at all times by its containing the entire and exact Quarters of the whole Army—a Feature of a Monthly Arniy List, which constitutes its chief value.—London, lan. 26, 1809. - MILITARY BOOKS.
