An incessant attendance in Parliament, from which I had determined no object should divert me, absorbed much of my time, which, together with the early day fixed for Election, will, I fear, prevent me from carrying this purpose complete effect. I shall, however, dedicate every moment my time, between this and the day of Election, to the fulfil ment of this duty ; and I beseech those Gentlemen open whom ' may not have the opportunity to wait, to believe that it arises from disrespect or inattention, but is attributable to the pre ceding circumstances alone. To those Gentlemen which an artive and extensive canvass has enabled me to see, and which in cludes a very large portion of the Livery, I beg to return my heartfelt thanks for their very extraordinary kindness, and pro mises of support, which leaves= no doubt as to the remit of the Election; and I beg leave to assure them, that no exertions on - part shall ever be wanting, to 'hew the deep tense I enter of the confidence reposed ih me. I have only to add, that the day of Election is fixed for Tuesday next, the attendance my friends at Guildhall on that day, and an early Poll in my .our, will add greatly to the obligations already conferred on, Gentlemen, your fgithful humble servant, Falcon-square, June 12.

TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF WESTMINSTER. Gtsiniocor, MY Life having been passed in the service of any Country, I am unused to addresses of this nature, and to professions of any kind lam averse. Of myself and my pre tensions I must speak with diffidence. Whether my oonduct has been such as to nwrit the confidence of my Fellow-Citizens, I am the last: to judge ; but this I may, and will say, that whilst our Country was engaged in War, the whole thought and occupa ion of my mind was to be among the foremost where the battle raged. Now that the blessings of Peace have been restored, I have the ambition of striving to be useful as a Member of the 'louse of Commons. It is with this view, and with the hope of being useful, that I presume to offer myself for the high honour of Representing the City of Westminster. Should 1 be en trusted with this honour, every hour of my life shall be devoted to its service; for whether it be io war, or whether it be in peace, I will yicld to no man in attachment to my Kiag, and in vene ration for our free and happy Constitution. This is the only pro fession I will make, and uow, Gentlemen, placing my cruse in your hands, I can with truth assure you, that I am Your most devoted and faithful servant. URR A Y MAXWELL,. . .

MANIFESTO ADDRESSED BY THE SUPREME DIRECTOR OF CHILI TO OTHER NATIONS, ritinTlNG nit worms JUTTWICA.IIOI4 Or MI ILZVOLL'TION Or THAT COUNTRY, MID TICH DICLMIATION Or ITS raiwazzamics, HWITD CHILI, riIIZUAILY 12, 1118. " At a time when the justice of the American cause is no longer an object exclusively consigned to the pens of certain Philosophers who early proclaimed it, and that inquisitorial spirit which condemned their works no longer exists ; at a time when all the polished nations are busied in this great question, examining it rather on the score of its expected issue, than the principle of right to our emancipation, in which they all agree; at a time when these same principles are exactly conformable with those which Spain. herself lately proclaimed in support of her own sovereignty, and used as a sanction to her heroic resistance against France; in short, at a time when posterity no longer requires the printed records of the history of our occurrences, which, from father to son, will be more solidly propagated and trans mitted by the bold and inextinguishable tradition of the very Liberty we have now attained, it would ap pear unnecessary to exhibit the reasons which have induced Chili to declare her Independence, if con stant practice, and what we owe to the dignity of those Powers, in the rank of whom we are about to enter, did not compel us to this step, on the other hand, conformable to our own honour and the re spect we owe them. 'Flndeed, for the felicity of the human race, that dark period has gone by, in which, whilst the learn ed of Europe deplored the situation of Colonial esta blishments, in us even the relief of complaining was deemed a crime, as well as the remembrance of the Conquest, unless it was to eulogize the bloody power of the Usurpers by whom it was effected. Those chivalrous days have now gone by, in which, autho rised by the absurd fashion of single combat, the right of force alone held sway, a principle as incon sistent in itself as violence and consent are in them selves contradictory, without the latter of which no man can exercise dominion over his fellow-being.— This abuse undermined the foundations of the autho rity raised up upon it, because, either the subjects had the right to recover their liberty as soon as they were stronger, or the means by which they were de prived of it were not legal. " This is the position in which America is at present placed. Spain, invading our coasts, under the simo• niacal pretext of a religion profaned b) those pseudo apostles, who, in order to preach it, sought out the veins of the mineral ridges in the same way as a sur geon does those of the body to bleed, has not since endeavoured to legitimate this horrid title, unless through the medium of that ratification with which some politicians have pretended to give value to the celebrated diploma of the conquest. " Far from this America, without the smallest par ticipation in these Cortes formed by and sold to the caprice of Spanish rulers—bound to the superstition: observance. of an oath taken without powers by a Magistracy, who at public auction had purchased the right of being a performer in this fanatical farce, forbidden to enter into any discussion 'respecting the cause of her obedience, sentenced, in short, with- , out being heard, to endure her slavery in silence, would have lost, with the use of her tongue, the re membrance of her evils, if it had been as easy to for get them as it was to deprive her of speech. But they were continually present aid alive in the feelings of all, owing to the very system of policy kept up by our executioners, who derived courage and delight at the portent of our forbearance, whilst they ought rather to have been deafened by the clanking of the chains we were compelled to drag about with us. " That miserable remnant of Indigenes who have been able to survive so many millions of victims, and who, scattered about in various wandering tribes, as the sand-hills in the midst of the desart, in their plaints and elegies still preserve the monumental re cord of their sad persecution, thus proving their re pugnance to the yoke of their aggressors, as well as by the constant war they wage against them, and which continually keep the frontiers of our settle ments in a state of ferment ? What argument, there fore, can Spain deduce in her own favour, hated as she is by the natives, and rejected by the descendants of the first conquerors, the moment they are enabled to open their lips without the dread of having them again closed by cruel torture? We claim the right with which the servant quits the master by whom he is ill-treated ; the right of him who, emancipated by the growth of time, is able to manage his own affairs, and is master of his own actions ; the right of him who issues from a state of wardship, aria we have moreover the generosity to forbear calling our late guardian to account ; the right of the steward, who, having become richer than his employer, and amply repaid his past favours and protection, now feels himself strong enough to lay aside the trammels of dependence. Having besides received from nature the right of birth, we are enabled to call that land Quit COUNTRY in which we first beheld the light of day, and where we have learned to partake of the civilization of the age. " The long and united efforts of tyranny have never been able to destroy this right, derived, as it is, from nature. By virtue of this we now cousti.• tute an association of men equally as free as those who were first conquered. But Spain, not less cruel with us than with them, always uniform in her plans of death and desolation, through the medium of her legislation, has consummated in us all the horrors ex ercised by the sword during the conquest. We do not now seek to recur to that Code of the Indies, dic tated only for the purpose of training the neophytes of slavery under the ecclesiastical feudalism of cate chisers and the inhuman controul of the Encomien das. That abject portion of the human race, for whom were compiled the cruel decrees of an Isabella, a Ferdinand, a Philip, and a Charles, no longer exists —no longer possesses any share of civil life. More enlightened people have now succeeded to those do vastated regions, and by them the three centuries of infamy which have preceded, are felt with double . - keenness. Our siste r provinces, which before us had formed themselves into Independent States, have also exhibited to the judgment of other nations the exten ded picture of their misfortunes, which those same . . . . nations had always beheld with as much astonishment as they had viewed our long forbearance with amaze. By so doing, they have rendered it unnecessary for us to retrace the general outline, as every en e aware that there has been no variation or respite this system of oppre ss i on , crue l ty, and depredateaccompanied by all the ev il s o f a studied slaver. sustained by all the inve nt i ons o f a f i erce d • " if the institution o f G overnment , knows no oth, origin than that of men seeki ng a support to the curity and prosperity of the associ a t ion to w hi ch tl belong; how is it possible that the peopl e o f A , rica could have conferred th e i r powers, in orde t become more unhappy and humiliated? Who co l believe that the Americans, possessors of land most rich and fertile in the universe, would wish, inhabit it for the only pupose of wate r i ng w i th t i tears the sacrilegious interdict that it shall not p: duce?

Th l . r : . : our coasts were neglected and exposed to the attere• of an invader, Spain should absorb from us t;.-- lions of Cosorti.house dues, under the pr t : ; .

In short, notwithstanding our arc] are boded with resolutions purporting to ma; equal, and wrested from the Sovereign by er.e and reiterated complaints of the injured, has not still to go a distance of three thousind leagt obtain redress, and then find that justice is ben and sold in the tribunals of Spain? Have r ¢ long been silent spectators of our own mid crt • and been entirely dependent on the whim and ca; of our masters? " But how can the latter now any longer st. a character they have abused, when the dawn s has at length beamed upon us; and when o: other hand we have outgrown that tenible sta, infancy in which they sought to keep us? We feel ashamed that we have patiently endured of tuation for so many }tars, and blush for that habitude of respect on which our subservience been founded. Let us ask, is not the time cctn cancelling the bond held as a mortgage on :be i given by Queen Isabella for the expedition of C bus? Are we still to be debtors, after the many lions we have sent over to l'iladrici? No—the 1 lution of Spain, and the indocility of our execution have placed in our hands the lever by which this supportable load is to be raised. " We cannot let the p:opitious momert sli unheeded, without beinz; unanswerable to post Not to know our rights by the very lessons herself has given to us—not to leave them secure resting on a solid Independence, would be a deserving of the execration of our children, and opprobrium of the present age. Our Indepad we have declared, and the sighs still wrested fn by the _hostility of our unjust rivals, shall be ened by the satisfaction of guaranteeing to ti scendants of the ancient conquerors, that Litt which the Spaniards despoiled their ancestor: wise, WC CAN, therefore we OUGHT to be FM. " Such is the consequence naturally anz:p from the above premises, so evidently fcurdei fact and right. Let us no logger ask Spain vi the right she still alleges over us. Let us look t principles sits has herself promulgated in fart her own sovereignty, after the seizure of Ferdi i Let us observe her conduct ; let us compare t our own, and let us not forget her locality ane. tion.
