The publi . a opinion beinglhus divided with re spect to the mother-country, it is evident that if the first.elasS lost their enthusiasm for Spain, they might easily be led into rebellion' by that More en-: lightened part of the community, who 'despised and hated her government. The news of the invasion of the f"renet,,toge tiler with that of the.captivity of . the the resignation of. Bayonne, produced a kind of stupor, which pervaded the. whole population . of Spanish America; but this was soon followed by a general enthusiasm iii favour of the' mother country, The prevailing sentiments were rence of the French, and desire 16 support Spaniards against their. tyranny•and injustice. If: we. wanted_argunients to confirm the correetnesk7 of Humboldt's .deseription, we shOUld find a very' strong °nein the confidence With which the Aitie ricans lookeA for a speedy , andsue.cessfi&isnte to the Spanish cause,, lf there were any ..vvlio dOubt ed of that success, they 'were to be:ftninti 7 ainong the higher clalses, ,and even among' the.'*utisix authorities. Those who according to Humboldt, er.nisidered Spain just as it „only_a day ha4"Eits . sed since , the battle of Pavia, hourly expected to hear of the patriOtic armies haVing reached Paris; and of Buonapartebeing a prisoner at Madrid. . Few examples can bc-. found of such an'attach ment:between, what might be called, tv o nations-, as that which was evinced by the 2znerican popu lation toward 4 the MOtbef-country. The opinion inla : toue Of. supporting Spain Was so general and decided, that not a Single voice vas heard from the. discontented Creoles, who had been long me dit}ifting a revolution. Had the . :Spanish Govern - meat ,acted wisely,, the French . invasion Would have strengthened - the ties of union bet Ween.

Had this chief mademse of his power, and 'ordered to the capital the troopS which, to the number of, twelve thousand, were stationed bet Ween Mexico -and Vera Cruz, the - country" would probably have been' spared the hor rors which are now laying it waste. .Butthe Vice roy had, no fixed plan, lie was old, and wanted vigour : be :vas besides afraid of exciting suspi cions against his loyalty, and had even proposed to resign his authority. This weakness was soon perceived:. by the Spa niards.

G svernment, and seize the Chief Magistrate' with impunity. The Junta was- weak, andof course suspicious : a denunciation; therefore, in anyshape was welcome to- them. Meanwhile advices of the ferment, Which was ' rapidly spreading through the colonies, arrived by' every packet. The .declarations of their. au ...fe11...-. meat had been sincere ; but some time had now •. elapsed, and as the first imps essions of sympathy grew fainter, the colonist's began to reflect on their situation, and to grow weary of the protracted . ho - Pes of that atnelioration which bad been pro : inked to them in the most positive terms.
