The co Waned demands on the Funds of the Refugee Committee
have again neatly exhausted their resources ; and the number of
Spanish Exiles has lately been greatly increased by renewed per-
seem ions of the Spanish Government. Within a short time, many
distinguished public characters 'llle arrived in I.ontlon, seeking an
asyzum from the erne' visitations of their political enemies. Seve-
ral Deputies of the Spanish tortes—many individuals who have oz.
spied posts of considerable trust in their native country—and great
numbers of Guerilla Sokliers, who had taken an active part iu the
defence of Spain, have been banished from the Peninsula by the re-
cent proceedings against them, and arc now wanderers in our
strea.. Some, after long imprisonment, have been shipped off for
England—othtrs, who had sought an asylum in France, have been
forced by the police to abandon that country. Every ay, in fact,
brings some new victim of political hostility to our bores at.d
though the Committee have strenuorsly exerted themselves to find
employment for the Refugees, and have not admitted new appli-
can:s but upon the most urgent necessity, so many irresistible cases
have come before them, that they have felt it impossible to oppose
their admission to the lists ; and at the same time they have deter-
mined to use every draft to obtain the erten ion and re-awaken the
sympathies of the public towards them.
