We mentioned yesterday that we had received accounts from Spain of the defection of Count liatstsitt, from the Constitutional cause. We are now enabled to lay before _our Readers two most Important documents, which, though they by no means confirm these accounts, show that this General has shew•n himself not unwilling to take the legit in bringing about a change in the existing system of Government favourable to the views • of the in vaders, 3.et in a way strictly honourable to himself,' as a soldier and a patriot. The Count is no traitor, as has been represented; nor does he vrtvli to effect this change by means of foreign intervendou. But we have no time for farther comments; thst,dous. Tricots will speak for themselves. r- • • COUNT MONTIJO TO Ins RXCELLRNCY • TIIR COUNT IYA BISBA L. " In the name of our afflicted country, I have re course to your Excellency, the only person who can save her, and entreat you to consider Spain, divided a id dismembered by her own children, as in the same situation in which she was in 180 S, raising the voice of common distress, and soliciting all leer offspring fora deliverer. • " At that period, as at present, the disorder of her Government debilitated her to such a degree, as to leave her without defence, and make it appear that it was easy to conquer her. At that time, as now, the nation which is our neighbour offered to remedy the evils which were felt by all, took possession of our fortre , ,s,.s, and introduced armies, with a view thereby to ensure the happiness which it tendered, and which is the greatest possible that any people can enjoy, ;lamely, a just and moderate Government. At that time, as now, the Spaniards were driven to despair by the calamities they suffered, opened their houses and their arms to the stranger, receiving and carry ing him, as it were in triumph, through the Northern Provinces up to the Capital. " The latter resounded with shouts of joy at the entry of the French troops and of the General who, led them. Every evil was looked upon as trifling, and preferable to the continuation of disorder and despotism, insomuch that people invoked the des potism of Bonaparte to get rid of that of fiodoy.— tven so now the Public are clamorous for the , abso- lute King, in order to free themselves from anarchy and from the despotism of the many. et In fine;—then, as now, two Powers disputted the ascendant, because neither of them possessed the general good.will. The people, in silence and dis- May, viewed with bitter smiles, and almost with complacency, the fall of their Government and even of their King, forgetting the mischiefs they broogbt on themselves and the dangers which they incurred. , But all at once an undaunted voice called cat at Aranjuez, 4 Long live Spain— .down with the Despot; ar.d as soon - as the latter had disappeared, all Spa niards united. Division was at an end; patriotism and valour were round, and the Conqueror of Europe at last deplored his imprudence. " It was at A t ranjuez that Bonaparte lost his power fOr without the 19th of March, the Spaniards would have made no resistance. But now the French are once more near the capi:ol; the general will cannot be mistaken; the injustice and perverseness of the esi Goyernasent.are wfll known ; still we do . not it . t a shouivilik.kalf iiiiisophig for of Spain for islet! indepeuderwe for ever r The armed force, the *Whirs of !spans, ate' split into parties. outdoing each other in acts of injustice, because none of them is sanctioned by the general will.
