WE learn from the Spanish Papers, that cons'. derable interest is attached to the appearance of the Duc d'OaEtsys in the Peninsula. It seems to be expected that the presence of a Prince of the House of Bourbon, to nearly related to FErt. DINA ND VII. will at the same time add to the en. thusiasin of the Spaniards, and detach some or the French from the banners of BONAPARTE. The Duke was invited to Toils by the Regency, and lie landed first at Tarragona, whither, we under. stand, he is to return, after having had a confer. ence with the Regency. and British Commanders at Cadiz. .It ,is said that he is to have the corn tnand of an army on the coast of Catalonia. The Dicirie of Tarragona, of the Bth ultimo, cod. tains a Proclamation, unnonncing Vie arrival of the DAG of ORLEANS ) which has been translated into French and Italian, in order to its circulation in the enemy's armies, Toe • passing events in Ireland point out the, .fate, and manner. of the fate, of these realmi l as diitinctly as any of those warnings which have generally preceded the downfal of othe'r corrupt ration.. There is a possibility, no doubt, of still receding from this fate, but the blind and callous • obstinacy of Ministers, and the slumbering sense and feeling of the English People, render the hope that is now left, feeble, and verging rapidly to despair. We are not going to write with iudig. nation ; for there are passions which absorb roger, and when affliction is dap!) , in the soul, all other feelings arc lust. But it would in less heavy times excite some resentment, to find men that produce all the evils of two islands, framed to be nappy by nature, and by an early fortunate consti!ution, to find these very •men instructing their abettors to say---" We haie not biought then , miserits.upon you: as well might you'hisme us for the defective state of the harvest, arising fro , . weather. Whether this scene of wretched. mess which we lament, be the work of a malignant and implacable foe, or the dispensatinnof deuce visiting you in wrath, c e have done all ire; 601 to ilvert it ; z;:e did long turn, it. aside; aa4 no doubt, if you arc patient, we ahaU f in. the end, bring jou. back to plenty and oetwtity, an enjoyment of the present, and inchmiwity ind reward fur the past." This would in scone MIS. meats prorcke a little of the colour „that rage pasies over the face. te s t free., -al this moment, from that feeling, MIAs see—bow this is r And let it be once torah known—who has brought all this calamity 'upon these two now ill-fated Islands. To begin with Ire. land (which, however, ive do not mean to give as a sample for all the rest, since that would be an unfair proceeding, as it is a pre.eminent part • of the OPPRESSIONS of Ministers), to begiowith the . wretched and drooping Erin, her fate is nit Only the result of the policy of the Ministers of the PITT school, but has been anticipated and fore. told, as often as debate has arisen, and .as often as controversy on paper has happened, upon that , subject. It is a notorious fact, that the events have been foretold. And, how comes it, that events fit the preceding facts, according to the phophecy, if there is no . connexion be. twcen them ?—The speakers in rarliatu f etil who anticipated all this evil (and more,' which is yet to come% and the white=s ral . c . 6 'side of the question, were:o4x :pruphets ; to•say, wrote from no other sourree thaw the eeS.. son of the thing. lint d'icy could never, at that time, come/to the coneloiion, which accords with. the subsequent foals, if. those facts were not the necessary result of the principles, or in oilier Words the necessary result of the deeds then doing by Mi nisters. It is absurd, therefore, fee Ministers now to ,say.—" We have not dune this, although it has ar. ritual"—When they were told, almost as many times as the sea has beat upon the shores of Ireland— " if yeu persist in, the course yam pursue, ire. land Most • come to Id her commerce, stagnatiois in her agriculture, sod a wide waste of WO., of dissolwtiou of GOveroment, and of . universaldesillatits; I" • ant, to'ruison-the Matter' over again, as if it had peict bids argued before,. hoer was Ireland to escape the present scene of dis tress; after the Union?
