T- k i t i• 7. - —SPAN NH DECR EE. who sill not regret the blood which we have shed to re . Aace Ferdinand VII. on the throne, when reading . the Decren issued on the (2 1 st ult. by which he re-esta b ishes the Inquisition' Fanaticism is as baneful to a nation as tyranny. It was fanaticism which -under l'hirip 111. unpeopled Spain by th,e expulsion of the Moors, a blow from which she has not yet reco v9red it is fanaticism which, after a revolution which exhausted both her popula4ion and her resources, now prevents her wounds from closing, and entails fresh mi series upon her. Of Ferdinand's gratitude for our ser- Tices,_ the dizeree is calculated to give us a just opinion. He grovhds the necessity of re•tiving the " Holy," or tat , er sangulnary office, on the very aid whieh we have afforded 2n:ra. it is the residence cf our troops, " in fected with Fentim , nts of hatred against his religion," NViliCh has " opened the field to the vticked who no lonmer knew any restraint." Nay, it is not only in `lain that we have been pilty of such practices, accord in,* to thi , t? oval Libel, but the following passage as a con-.equeire c,f the first, implies that we Were the ' authors of. ail the wrong notions circulated in other coun tries. " pargerous opinions were introduced and rooted in our Sates, 'by the same means by which they spread over other countries." With such sentiments publicly ex pressed, is it to be reasonably expected that Ferdivand can long remain our Ally ? GRAND Jui:TT.Er. Notwithctantling certain gibes and sarcasms on the Ju- Vice Preparations, the result proved sue& we are bold to sziy, as to surpass the CNpectations of ail who witnessed the scene, by. whom it will long be retraced with feelings of 'patriotic exultation. This day of gratulation NI at once refivshing to the Fpieits.of the people, : ton long subjected to gloom, and creditable to the character of the Prince. Dis,atisfaction was banished from eveiw - brow, and clicor fultin,is shone in every countenance. It is quite impossi ble to do justice to the scene. Similar rejoicings arc, we hear, likely to take place in other lands ; but in 110 coun try'can they, e\ceed those which havt: . so re..cently gratified the population of this immense metropolis! It is now said that the Congress will assmlile at Vienna, an the lOth of September, and tli:Lt the Emperor of litiqsja and Ki i , g o f Prv-.ia will arrive there ou the 27th, to ratify its acts.
