They, however, had courage and strength to beat oil twelve Sovereign States and crowned heads, and establish their freedom, We are con vinced that the same effects would again occur in the instance of the Spanish people, if the same provocation were offered to them as to their proto- , types in the struggle fur their divine rights and franchises!! Sin—The subscription in behalf of the officers who were present at the detection of the Cato-street couspi• racy, siesta to proceed swimmingly. The hest sympa thies of our countrymen have been awaks•nesl, atsd their voluntary subscriptions on this occasion hat e afforded a sufficient testimony of their readiness to reward those who have been instrumental in preventing the occur• rimer of a severe calamity. I cannot, however, but de precate that manifestation of party•feeling which has been excited by many political writers, and I hope the people of England will not allow their generous feelings to be so worked upon as to forget, at this •titutts crisis, their best and dearest interests. That this affair has been ransacked and turned into evert- possible direc tion—that every additional circumstance that has untie to light has been magnified to a tale of horror—that the most extensive, and chimerical, and wildest Pio% have been counearted with this, every man who is capable of judging for himself is sufficiently aware who peruses the Ministerial prints. That the offence is foul. and deserving of punishment, we cordially admit: tint we admit likewise, that the great body of Reformers in England have been maligned ------- • • • • SIO and irssuraged. No animation has been paid to birth, to IPu talent, to patriotism ; but the fairest and best of elm -43t racters have been overwhelmed by one indiscriminate and --t flagrant abuse.
