OTFICIA L ARTICLE. GAZRTTE EXTRAORDINARY, CADIZ, Aucusr 5, 1823, SPEECH OP HIS MAJESTY ON CLOSING THE SESSIONS OF THE LEGISLATURE OF 1823. " GENTLEMEN DEPUTIES—On this solemn day, in which the present Cortes are closed, my heart is neces sarily affected by sensations of different kinds, though still they accord with the circumstances in which the nation is placed. On the one hand, the evils by which she is oppressed, and, on the other, the valour of those sons who defend her, produce in my mind the natural effects of such opposite causes; and if the public cala mities and the horrid abuse of my royal name by the enemies of the State, are to me matter of the deepest affliction, I likewise feel the greatest satisfaction when I contemplate the virtues by which the Spanish people are acquiring fresh claims to glory, and the conduct by which their worthy representatives have distinguished themselves during the present legislature. 11 Invaded as our territory is, by the most unheard of treachery on the part of a perfidious enemy, who awe their existence chiefly to this magnanimous nation, the world beholds violated in her the rights of all countries, and all the principles the most sacred among men. Pre tended defects in our political institutions—supposed errors in our interior administration—a feigned wish to restore tranquillity, the disturbance of which is the work of those alone who exaggerate it—affected concern for the dignity of a Monarch who wishes not to be one but for the happiness of his subjects—such were the pre texts of an aggression which will be the scandal of pos terity, and the blackest spot of the nineteenth century.] But hypocrisy, emboldened by her ephemeral progress, soon threw off the mask, and, discovering all the horror of her views, no longer allows even the most duped to doubt that the only reform she aims at is to deprive the nation of all independence, of all liberty, and of all hope ; and that the dignity which she pretends to re store to my crown, consists only in dishonouring me, in exposing my Royal person and family, and in under mining the foundations of my Throne, to raise herself on its ruins. " With very little reliance on their forces and on their own valour, the invade' s have not been able to advance but as cowards, by scattering corrupting gold, by recur ring to the vilest shifts to seduce the incautious, and by arming in their aid treason, fanaticism, ignorance, and all the passions and crimes. In opposition to such ene-1 mies, and in so disadvantageous a struggle, to those who are acquainted with honourable warfare only, the fate of arms has hitherto been adverse. The defer tion of a General, whom the country had loaded with honours, annihilated an army, upset all plans, and opened to the enemy the gates of the residence of, Government, compelling it to remove • to this spot ; and the combined operations being thus frustrated, and onr means of defence sotonsiderahly diminished, misfortune has since succeeded misfortune, and evils have accumu lated upon a generous people wholeast merited them. " But in the midst of these disasters, Spain preserves her magnanimous resolution, and the Cortes, in the closest union with my Government, have ever main tained themselves such as they were in the memorable days of the 9th and llth of January last. The serenity and wisdom of their deliberations hitherto, amidst such bitterness and danger, the confidence which their pa triotism inspires ) and the hatred itself with which they are honoured by the enemies of the country, are so Many proofs that they have deserved well of it. Indefatigable in promotitig all the branches of public 'prosperity,:they have issued various decrees that contribute to it, as far as Circumstances permit. The public credit of the nation, her finances, her army, the interior government of the provinces, aviculture, commerce, and other branches of industry, the administration of justice, and the esta-;' blithment of beneficence, have all been the object of the teal of the Cortes, and all are indebted so thesis for' considerable improvements which time wilt *Vince to a greaser extent, and which I will exert myself . to further, as far as depends upon the Executive power.. - " Gentlemen-14 feel a real satitfaction expressing my gratitude for these hirpoitlfit service* foe the terve rosity with which yurChave attended to the honour of my Royal Family, and far the liberality with which you, have furnished my Government alt the means in your, power to meet the excessive expen s es of the State, with the least pressure upon the nation : the fiCisiers granted to this effect, by the Cortes, to the proiincral deputations, as auxiliary Juntas of the national defenoei have increased the resources; and the patriotism of these cprporations has hitherto made, and, I trust, will continue to make; of such authority, a use extremely beneficial for . the *ip pon and increase of the defenderx of the country. likgwise 1VA,4 11 thanks to the Corms for t , the un-• limited confidence whiCh they haie reposed in rrit%).4 vernment, authorizing it, of its' oWis and-b 4 means of isiliselyal agents, in adopt. extraordinary ..ittertsetel:wbith.the pstaent.state 46 the nation induced, me to propose as indispensable. It it really is indispen sable, that, in such critical times, the execu , ive cower should be sufficiently strong to prevent any machinations, and secure public tranquillity, my Government never will, therefore, lose sight of the respect due to the li berty of the Spaniards, but endeavour to requite a con fidence so gratifying, by acting, as hitherto, with the greatest Moderation and economy. gi The position in which the events of the war have placed my Government, has produced an interruption in the communications with several of the Agents of - foreign Powers; but there is no reason whatever to think that this momentary interruption can disturb the rela tions of friendship and alliance that subsist between Spain and those Cabinets. " Particular circumstances, which might expose the honour of my Government, have induced me to order, as a provisional measure, that my Charge d'.Affaiies , should withdraw from Lisbon. " Nevertheless, the ties subsist untouched by which two nations are united, whose evident interest it is to. live together in peace and harmony; and the commer cial intercourse has continued uninterrupted. " In the interior, everything suffers from the fatal effects of a desolating war, and the most beneficent laws and measures cannot produce favourable results in the midst of such disasters. DIVINE PROVIDENCE IS pleased to try us in all ways ; but I trust, Gentlemen, that at last it will grant a triumphant issue to the justice of our cause, If the treason of some has done 1 - :r the in vaders what they could not expect from their own et forts, the country has still left many heroes who remind the French army of the Spaniards of 1813. If some Go. verntnents, who are inimical to liberty and lii;ht, have conspired against us—if others have forsaken us from a near-sighted policy, all nations behold their interests connected with ours, and are ardent in their wishes that in this•struggle we may be victorious. " Gentlemen Deputies—Then rest, for the present, from your laudable labours, and reap, from the esteem of yfaur fellow-citizens, the fruits which you so richly deserve. Endeavour to inculcate on their minds the ne cessity of their all uniting around my Constitutional Throne, and of discord and unfounded distrust disap pearing from amongst us. Let the Constitution be our only motto, national independence, freedom, and ho nour, our only wish, and unmoved constancy be ever opposed by us to misfortunes which we have not merited. My Governmifqt shall cease to exist before it takes any step contrary tcithe oaths by which it is connected with the country, or to what is required by the honour of the nation and the dignity of my Crown; and, if circum stances shall require it, it will seek, in the extraordinary Cones, a safe harbour for the vessel of the State. In wilt case, I will assemble them, always depending upon their zeal and patriotism, and jointly we will travel in the path of glory, until a peace be- obtained at once ho nourable and worthy of Spaniards and of myself." ANSWER OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE CORTES, TO THE KING'S SPERCII. "Stns—The Cortes of the Spanish nation, on termi nating their ordinary Ses.,ions, could wish to congratu. late your Majesty, and themselves, on the tranquil en joyment of the beneficent institutions by which we are governed. But, in reality, as your Majesty hasfust ob served, treacherous . aggression has scattered over this nation all the evils of an atrocious war, in which fana ticism, the vices and ignorance of the aggressors are obstinately struggling against the virtues, the honour, and the illumination of the offended. In such a situa tion, the noble resolution of upholding the contest, so as either to vanquish or perish with glory, is worthy of Spanish breasts. " And what pretexts have they chosen for hostio lities that will ever be the scandal of the civilized world? To protect religion, and maintain the prerogatives of your Majesty's throne, through a reform in our Consti tution. But religion is not protected by the violence of the superstition of the barbarous ages : nor are the throne and .person of your Majesty defended by exposing therm to universal disrepute, by the excesses which are comb mitted in the abuse of your Majesty's name. Above all, foreign legions, with arms in their hattds, do not intend to retorm the Constitution of any - country, but rather endeavour the destruction of its liberty; and the viola tion of its most valuable rights: - bet tail these be the active measures, at this moment,' of Princes who, but lately, owed to our firmness, and to the exalted state of those principles which they are persecuting, some the restitution, and others the preservation of their thrones, and all the security of that power which they now' employ to reward such benefits, at oar hands, by injuries and calamities-? Such conduct can be sanc tioned only by the perfidious ingratitude of those Princes who debased and prostrated themselves before a daring soldier; nor can it be supported and adopted but by degraded 'Spaniards, who are absolute strangers tit ho nourable sentiments and national independertee.
