SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE PAPERS. CADIZ, AUGUST 3. . ' ; :'' I SITTING OF 111 E CORTES, ACM 2. • D. Jose VALLE, a Member of the Itrita.of Catelo- • nia-, presented a plan of a Constitution, which was transmitted to the Committee sitting on the subject. Theadvocate D. Jose CAMINO submitted the ne-j cessity ; of admitting nobles and plebeians, v‘ ithout ' distinction, into the military colleges, and abolishing 'the perni(s9us custom which had hitherto prevailed, , .in consequence of which the higher orders alone 'n. joyed this privilege ; thus rendering useless the talents I and excellent dispo,itiOns of many young men, who, froth the want of this chimerical privilege, were depriv. ed of the means of advancing, and becoming useful to their cot *try. With reference to this subject, there was read a judicious Report front the Committee of ' War, founded on the two principles, that all men in ' the order of nature are equal, and that he is most worthy of respect who renders himself useful to so ciety by his knowledge and his virtues. Hence it , was deduced, that hereditary nobility ought not to - ' , •be preferred before merit and application, die. The 1 'Committee therefore proposed the following points , for the sanction of the Cortes : Ist. That respectable individuals should be admitted in succes sion to the military colleges, and even though they should not " be Not:L.s ; and, . .. idly, That the same should take place in the Marino and other corp,, abrogating all former orders in opposition to this measure. . . The sth iiist. was appointed for the discussion of . • , this proposition. ' • ". • The Committee of Finance and of matters ecclesi astical, plying to Ale military hospitals the sums destined for, religious fraternities, prebendships, and other, pious 1 ' ... uses. - With this view, they submitted a plan of pro • cedu . ie ; and to prevent any religious scruples, they prop iised tliat the Cardinal Cle Bourbon, and such perk . 16r.s as he suigltt appoint, should assist in this matter. • Vather Loera—“lop s pose this measure; the Church 'alone can ifO this--tile Congress has no right m give away such money -neither the people nor the King; od as we ate the Representailves of the people what they cannot do, as little can we ( rwral mermurs.)

It would, in short, make them absolute masters of all that is consumed in those vast regions ; for neither our mercantile marine, nor the productions of our agriculture, our arts, and our ma nufactures, can enter into competition with their's.— The infallible consequence will be, the destruction of the little that the French have left of those elvmentst of national prosperity ; the influx of money, which is the sinew of war, will disappear for ever ; and the French, without enemes or oppoiition, will be lords of Spain, and of the few or many Spaniards, who in Consequence of a decree will not be allowed to emi grate to another country . where they can have the means of existence, off with them the re: grenadiers of the Imperial cavalry guard, 2500 infantry ; $OO belonging to the Paris guards are ex pected to stay here, and the remaining 2000 to march to Valladolid, part of which will proceed from thence" to France.
