ADDITIONAL DOCEWENTS REFERRED To IN TRE STATE/NEKTON'. SENORS num DE LA VEGA AND OLIVRR, (GIVEN IN TUE STAUDT...YESTERDAY.) .•• •N. ^ Ntr 5. • • The undersigned Secretary of State for Foreign Af- I fairs to his Catholic Majesty has received the.: Note which Sir William A'Court, Envoy Extraordinary and :Minister Pleripotentiary to his Britannic Majesty, has dime him the honour to direct to him from Seville, un der date of the 11th inst. arid he thinks it.his duty, in reply, to inform him -that the involuntary delay expe rienced in the delivery of the official communication which the undersigned hastened to make to his Excellency on the 16th of June last, has been so much the more dis agreeable to his Majesty's Government, as it has given oc casion to the continuance of SirW.A'Court's stay in that city during the whole of that time. He also thinks it neces sary to state that his Majesty's Government is no less sen sible to the unexpected deterrninatism adopted by Sir W. A'Court to transfer his residence to Gibraltar, in await ing fresh instructions from - his Court, seeing that under the present circumstances there exists to all appearance no reasonable cause to prevent his Excellency from re suming his important functions at the Court of his Ca tholic Majesty, and thus destroying the misrepresenta tions of calumny, whatever they might be. The under signed also thinks it necessary to state, that under this view of the subject it is not easy to doubt that the com mands which his Excellency may receive from his Go vernment on the subject, will.he altogether conforma ble to the just desires of his Majesty, and agreeable to the sincere friendship subsisting between the two au go st Monarchs; a nd that, in the meanti me, until the under signed is assured of this fact, he vtill have the greatest satisfaction in pursuing his official communications with Sir Wm. A'Court. The undersigned has also the ho nour to assure Sir Wm. A'Court, that his Majesty's Go vernment duly appreciates the friendly intentions and isterest towards Spain which have doubtless dictated the offer with which his Excellency has thought fit to conclude his before-mentioned note: and at the same time the undersigned must be permitted to observe that his Excellency is too enlightened not to be aware that a Government, the victim of the most wilful and immo ral oppression that has ever been known, and the real motive of which, the object at which it aims, has never been manifested, is absolutely incapable of ad dressing to its iniquitous oppressor propositions of any nature, without evidently compromising the national honour, the most sacred interests, and the dearest principles. The only opinion, therefore, whichthe under signed can entertain on the present occasion, on so im pot cant a subject, is'simply this, that if Great Britain truly desire (as his Majesty's Government is persuaded shedoes) that tranquillity should be restored to Europe, and that Spain should be delivered from those evils which so unjustly oppress her, her Government should not besi; tate to employ the necessary measures to induce the Frenc't Cabinet at once clearly to explain its intentions, in order that, with this precise knowledge, his Majesty's Government may take it into consideration, whether or not to establish, through the mediation of his Britannic Majesty, the basis of a solid and useful peace ; and above all, one which m iy be perfectly honourable to Spain. The undersigned takes the present occasion to repeat to SirW. A'Court the assurances of his igitest consideration. JOSE MARIA DE PANDO. Cadiz, 20th July, 1823. To Sir W. A'Court, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to big Britannic Majesty. N 0.4 is the letter of the Duke of Angouleme to the King or Spain, dated fioin Port St. Mary, August 17, stating that Spain vk as delivered from the revolutionary yoke, and iccommending► the convocation of the an cient Col tes. No. 5 is King Ferdinand's answer, vaiich begins by remarking, that the intentions of the King of France, had never before been stated to him. This correspond ence has already appeared in the Slur. No. 6. The undersigned Secretary of State ad Waving of his Catholic Majesty has the honour to transmit to Sir William A'Court, Eire)) , Extraordinary and Minister Plenipocntiary of his Britannic Majesty, a copy of the lute which his IJepartment addressed to his Ex cellency on the 20th of July last, the original of which has probably been mislaid, as its receipt has not yet been acknowledged, not withstanding the urgency of the business of which it treats. The undersigned being also desirous again to express the satisfaction with which his Catholic Majesty's Government has received the friendly offers contained in Sir William A'Coures last letter of the 11th of July, hastens to transmit to his Excellency the annexed co pies of the autograph letter addressed to his Catholic Majesty by his Royal Highness the Duke d'Angouleme, dated Port St. 'Mary the 17th instant, together with the autograph answer which the King was pleased to return to that extraordinary communication. The undersigned if fully persuaded that Sir W. A'Court, in render ing to his Britannic Majesty an account of these important docu ments, will not fail earnestly to call his Majesty's attention to the contrast presented on this occasion between the conduct of his Catholic Majesty and the ill-advised, not to say insulting, intimation which the Duke d'Augouleme presumed to make to hint in the name of his august uncle, the King of France. If any doubt could hitherto have existed as to the real intentions of the French Government with respect to Spain, all such dendni must vanish at sight of the Dake d'Antouleme's letter, which ex presses a wish not for the prudent reform of our political institutions, in order to impart the necessary force to the Royal authority, and to obvi.,te aU danger or cause of jealousy to other Powers ; but to gain possession of the King and his Royal Family, to make them the instruments of the French Government, and, without leav ing the Spaniards in possession of any moderate Constitution, to overwhelm the Spanish nation with disgrace, and to deprive it of all irdepcitdence, liberty, and security. It supposes the King is not free, and proceeds to maintain this evident and absurd falsehood, in spite of the many solemn declarations of his Majesty to the con trary—in spite of his many unequivocal acts which set aside all idea of edeiciou, and in spite of the uninterrupted tranquillity and good order which are well known to prevail in Cadiz, the respect that Is entertained for the august person of the King, and the character and principles of his Ministe rs. The Freech alone drove the King from his palace of 51adrid, they alone drove him from Seville ; and in what way do they :low pretend to restore to hint the liberty of which they alone have deprived hint ?—by requiring that he should sue. renderhimseif absolutely to their disposal and their influence. 'lsis is. the only explicit proposition curtained in the Duke d'Augou leme's letter; it is the preliminary situ qua net; and they who pre tend that the Monarch is nut free in the hands of his faithful sub jade, wish to place hint in the power of the foreign troops who have invaded 1,15 kingdom, of the traitors and rebels who are assisting the enemy in desolating his dominions. Let Ferdinand VII. be free, said the King of France, to give to his subjects institutions which they Lan receive from hint alone, and instantly the war shall cease. The civilized world has bZheld with amazement an aggression founded on such a pretence, and scandalized to bear a maxim which is calculated to subvert the most sacred rights of nations. But in fact, his Most Christian Majesty did nut say that he would only consider his Cathohc Majesty tree when he should bean the midst of the French army; and as fink did he announce the Intention of dictating or suggesting the institutions which he was to give to his subjects. Now the Genet - el-in-Chief of the French arusy assumes the power of deciding when the King of Spain shall consider himself free, and even when he should be declared at liberty. His Majesty is only to use his freedom for the purpose of giving us such institutions as May be agreeable to the Calmuct of the Tuillerles; for that ,Cabi . . . • off.es the Ment ; the least,tonforrnable with the spirit of the age, and the pre sent condition and customs of the nation, and the most likely to perpetuate division and oppositioie offinterests and party conflicts ribose men must he ignorant of the history cif Spain who pro:I/Moe, fii the present state of things, tendatablish the ancient Cortes of the kingdom as the guarantee of order, jttstlce, and good govern ment. Juntas, or particular establishments; in e!ach of the throe Rieman provinces, different Cones h ..Nirrarre—others of three distinct classes i!' Arragon, C.:tato:lM; and Valencia, which for a length of time bier ceased to exist in those quarters, others of very different kinds in the kingdoms of the Castiles, which never possessed a fixed form. and which underwent so many vicissitudes —such is the chain by which it is proposed . to unite the Spanish people together, and to consolidate the Monarchy. Congresses of this heterogeneous nature, in which no real national representation ever existed—in which men calling' themselves representatives of the people were so frequently seen to prostitute and sell them selves to power—in which the Royal dignity was so often outraged and oppressed by the ambition and preponderance of subjects— such are the means by which it is wished. to invigorate the monar chical authority, and to secure just freedom to the nation. It is excusable to pause and reflect on this point; and it is only possible to explain the Duke d'Angoulerne s proposition, by at taching to it the same sense as that in which the ancient Cortes was spoken of by the authors of the royal decree of the 4th of May, 1814—a vain word, the object of which was to leave a little hope to those who do not reflect, and to restore absolute govern ment. Thus it would easily have been directed from Paris, and thus, after the lapse of a century, the plan of Louis XIV. would have been executed, which is doubtless the real object of the war. It was not sufficient to effect this object by a measure se extraordinary as the establishment of the self-styled Madrid Regency, and to render it the means of subverting all that had been done during the space of three years by the legitimate Government, acknowledged by the in vaders themselves, and by all Europe ; it was not sufficient to de prive the Spaniards of the right of establishing such a Constitution for themselves as best suited them ; it was necessary to deprive them of any Constitution whatever, sli d because they wished to en joy liberty without licentiousness, although without prejudice to France ; they now suffer, together with the King, front the yoke attempted to be imposed on *ern, &c. &c. No. 7. CORTES EXTRAORDINARY.- -FIRST SECRET SITTING. SEPTEMBER G. The sitting opened at half-past seven in the evening, when the Secretary of State for the Home Department lead an exposition made by the Government, which de scribed the melancholy-situation of the nation, and the last communications of the Government-with the Envoy of his Britannic Majesty, Sir Wm. A'Court and those of his Catholic Majesty with the Duke of Angouleme. After the exposition was read, one of the Secretaries asked whether it was the wish of the Cortes to continue in a secret sitting on this subject, and it was resolved by an almost unanimous vote in the negative. After wards some Deputies suggested, that in making a pub lic report on what had passed, it would be proper to suppress some passages of the exposition, and the other documents. Don Cayetano Valdes in the meantime read a kind of intimation which he had just received from the besieging General, and the Secretary of State ft,r the Home Department having pointed out the in convenience which in his opinion would be experienced by the Government if all the documents, presented were made public, it•was resolved that the President and Se cretaries of the Cortes should, in concert with the Mi nisters, fix upon the documents or passages which ought not to be read in public. The sitting then terminated. No. 8. SECOND SECRET SITTING.-SEPT. 9. The minutes of the sitting of the 6th being read and approved, the President observed, that the Govern ment having summoned the Cortes to this sitting, it was for the Ministers to state the business on which they were convoked. The Secretary of State for the Home Department then delivered four documents which had lately been interchanged for the suspension of hostilities by the be sieging army, but that the Government not having agreed to what the Duke of Angouleme proposed, hos tilities were about to be renewed. The documents presented were-1. A copy, of his Majesty's letter transmitted to the Duke of Angouleme through General Alava, in which, as a proof of his Majesty's sincere desire of peace, he offered to treat alone with the Duke on the means of re•establishing it, on board the ship ora neutral Power, or in a point at equal distance horn the two armies, with the precau tions and formalities usually adopted in like cases.- 2. The disp a tch of General Alava to the Government, stating the result of his mission. 3. An unauthentic note, in French, without date or signature, accompa nying the other letter, in which were expressed the con ditions on which the Duke of Angouleme would enter upon an adjustment. 4. The opinion of the Council of State on the examination of these documents. These documents having been read; the Minister with. drew, and the sitting terminated. No. 9. THIRD SECRET SITTING, SEPT. 18. _ _ The Dispatch of yesterday's date was read, in which the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs stated, that the Government had to snake a communication to the Cortes in a secret sitting. The same Secretary of State then intimated, that the Government considered it necessary to inform the Cortes of some circumstances which had occurred since the communications made on the 9th.: He accordingly proceeded to read a paper which related to the little hope there remained of deriving any effective advan tage from the intervention of the English Government, solicited through the medium of Sir W. A'Court—The answer returned by the latter—the invitation made on the part of the enemy through an indirect and purely confidential channel, for again opening communications —the ultintatutn recently proposed, which could not fail to be rejected with indignation by the Government— the protest of the Government that it had not Omitted, though without result, the employment of any of the means in its power for terminat►ng the war, and pre venting the dange►s which the defence of this island mi3,lit bring upon its worthy inhabitants--the resolu n of the Government to per►sh rather than to see the throne despoiled of its dignity and the Spanish people of their liberty—and the consequent result, that the or dinary course of war was returned. The Cortes having received this information closed the sitting. No. 10. FOURTH SECRET SITTING, SEPT. 25. Read a Dispatch from the Secretary of State for the Home Department, stating the resolution of his Ma jesty for convoking the Cortes, to inform them of what had occurred in San Fernando. _ The Secretary of War being called upon by the Presi dent, rose and said, that though the first object of the sit ting was to receive an account of the mutiny of the soldiers of the battalion of San Martial, there were other occur rences posterior to that event, of which it was thought proper that the Cones should also be informed. At mid night on the 23d, the battalion mutinied, in consequence of which the General-in• Chief proceeded to the spot with troops of every description ; having arrived yesterday morning with 3,000 men, he found that six companies had already returned to obedience, and the other two companies submitted on his command. The companies were removed from the points which they garrisoned, and distributed among those of the battery of Offal/. In Campo Soto they were septrated and decimated. those selected being executed. He then relied vat ious other events and incidents, which shewed the bad spirit of the army, and the Conversations and means of se- 4 duction which were employed. In conseqUence of these seductions, the General had assembled the principal Ocers on the preceding night, in Campo Soto, where they endeavoured to promote good spirit among the - troops : but though many were decided, the con duct of all could not be relied on. Among other mea sures, the General had disbanded the second provi sional battalion. The Secretary for the Home Department then read a Dispatch 'received last night from the General-in- Chief, in which, after stating in detail the causes Which rendered the defenCe of the Gaditanian Island dirli• cult, the General stated that he, believed it would be necessary. to concentrate the army on the territory be tween Cadiz and the Cortadura.• The reply of the Go vernment directed; that until . the concentration should be definitively determined upon, the general should in the meantime transfer to Cadiz all effects which might not be absolutely necessary in case of attack. The Se. cretary of State further observed, that the Government considered it above all things necessary to consult a Junta of Generals. The Officers, on the view of all the points which they. had to consider, and the notoriety of the absolute impossibility of defending the line now oc cupied, unanimously agreed that the concenttation ought to be instantly effected, as well as the other mea sures proposed by the General-in-Chief. They added, that the army, considering its number and quality, did not afford security fin. the defence of the new line pi posed, nor yet for that of this city, which wanted re-. sources of every kind, and that a determination should be come to without loss of time. The Alinisters, not possessing sufficient experience on the subject, had not ventured of themselves to order the concentration. After some conversation, ►Senor SAAVEDRA suggested that the Ministers should be asked whether the Govern ment intended to submit to the Cortes any propositiOn on the communication which had just now been made? The SEcaErAnx of 'VAR replied, that the Govern ment had nothing to add to the exposition which had been made, as it had formed no opinion on the subject of the concentration, and he only state his individually. Various questions were put by other Deputies re specting the object of the communication, and the rea sons which bad induced the Government to convoke the Cortes ; to which the War Secretar7 again replied, that the Government had formed no opinion, and that what was wished was, that the Cortes should declare them selves fully informed by this communication, and wait for the propositions to be made by the Government. A question to this effect was put to the vote, and decided in the negative. A -motion signed by Senores Conga, Arellano, Me lendez, Reillo, Buruaga, and Moreno, was then read ; it was to the following effect:—" That the Cortes should appoint a Committee to confer with his Majesty on the measures which might be calculated to termi nate the evils that afflict the country, the farther effu sion of blood, and the ravages of' civil war, and-to se cure the liberty and independence of the nation." The Secretaries of, the Cortes intimated a doubt of the competency of the Congress to discuss this proposi tion, which had not been remitted to them by the Go vernment. It was put to the vote, whether the motion should be taken into consideration, and resolved in the negative. The sitting was then concluded. No. IZ. /MTH SECRET SITTING, SEPT. 26. Read the dispatch for the convocation and the pro posal submitted by the Government. It was put to the vote whether the sitting should be continued secret ; and it was resolved in the affirmative by a majority of 43 to 38. SENOR ADAK proposed that the consideration of the subject before the Cortes should be suspended until the following day, because many Generals were absent in consequence of there not having been time to summon them. This proposition was declared not to be included in article 100 of the regulations. It was then ordered that the exposition of the Go vernment should be referred to a special committee, consisting of Senores Calderon, Cuadra, Escobo, Maran, Adan, Gener, Ruiz de la Vega, Surra, and Tomas. Read the particular vote of Senores Meca, Maran, Lillo, Tegeiro, Posed°, Salva, Adan, Rico, Ruiz de la Vega, Gomez, Galiano, Septiem, Villanneva, Buruaga, Bertran de Lis, Roso, Reillo, Lagasca, Llorente, Soria, Escobo, Afonso, and Calderon, against the resolution of the Cortes to consider the exposition of the Government in a secret sitting. The present sitting was then adjourned, and the next, for receiving the report of the committee, was fixed for to-morrow at twelve o'clock. thiaet out uu;y dictates whit ese institutions shalt be, but off:rs the co-operation ul France and her Allies in consolidating them.

'l4, No. 1 ] . TO THE MINISTER OF WAR.—STAFF.--SECOND SECTION. &a muse Soma —The fatal and unexpected loss of the castle of Santi Petri hai placed in the hands of the enemy, who was previ ously master of the waters, the true key of our position, whether we consider solely the military relations, or the state of almost absolute want of communication in which we are placed. The probabilities favourable to the defence have diminished infi nitely. The equilibrium of force has been lest on our side. There is but one means of re-establishing it, and unfortunately that ' means is unattainable. And, in fact, if it had been possible for me to have constructed in the fortress of Santi Petri in proper time, and with suitable rapidity, a complete and well-combined system of works, and if it had been in my power to have held constantly iu that point 2,000 determined and well-conditioned troops, they - might then perhaps have been able to have ilentra. lined the power of the enemy, and to have prolonged inilefiuitely the defence. But the scarcity of artillery and engineering ma teriel, the absolute want of funds to most the expenses which such measures would occasion, and to pay the great nrimber of labourers which it wmaki be necessary to employ, were powerful and invinci ble obstacles which my energy and good wishes endeavoured in vain to sdrmount. There was, too, another cause still spore powerful, as it attacked the bases of all our ideas of resistance. Whether it was that the reverses and defections which rapidly succeeded each other of late, bad influenced the minds of the troops, or that the bribery and gold of our enemies had corrupted them, it is certain that their discipline and subordination began to waver and•lose ground, and a pernicious spirit was seen to spread anwngst the most confidential' corps. Their enthusiasm was succeeded by a deplorable wart of energy, a clear and decided cowardice, to the eternal disgrace of otu military glory, of Which we have just had such Lwientable proofs. These, Excellent Sir, are the elements which I hold at My dispo sal, to sustain the Isle of Cadiz, the depository of the I.;overninent and of the sacred person of the King, the asylum of so many well deserving citizens compromised in thy cause of liberty, and the cen tre of the hopes of the rest of the country. This view of the sub ject, while itendangera the object which -his lilajestrdu4ned to place under my care, extends beyti its natoral limits the defence of this point, and connects it with Ratio*, of high politteal . hapoet„. ince ; and Such is the powerful reason which induces me to impress myself to your Excellency in different terms. from those which I should have adopted, had I been simply charged with the defence of a fortress, or of a fortified hoe. From the statement which I have given above, your Excellency will perceive, that if the enemy should attempt a vigatous attack-upon the beach, the works would afford no means of repulsing him, and that he would inevitably esta blish a footing on the island. Nothing then Would 'remain for us but to draw our troops rapidly together, •and to risk au action in open field, of the ill succeu of wisick,.the desuoralizatiau an 4 de cided cowardice of our troops conk! scarce give reuse-to 'doubt.
