IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS.
PROCLAMATION.
People of SpaM, Loyal (;conitryiner, whither
does your blind enthusitesin, aiaing from your fer-
vent love fur our magma ,isad beloved t'6vereigit
Ferdinand VII. (for whom we are to die) hurry you
along? Are ye not aware that the excuser yea
commit, hurl us to a precipice, and cause the ruin
of the Suite ? Would you be so much misled by
prejudice, as not to know, that disorgauieation
is the principal-came of the downfal and destrue-
tilm of the most polo orful natiou ! And convinced
of that truth, why do you not hasten to submit to
the orders of a Government, which has no more
earnest wish than to die for our Sovereign, who is
turn froin us by the ueurpatiou of a tyrant? The
advantages arising from such a line of ocnielact will
be truly great, because, 'tieing organized as militia
or veteran troops, the seine number of men who
pant for the welf.ire of the nation, will fortis a body
of troops able to mach in any direction, which
circumstances shall require, and how great will be
your satisfaction, when you shall see the tran-
quillity and peace of this town restored.
Hitherto you have acted with inconsiderate pre-
cipitance, and /lone nothitig, and, under the cloak
of your patsintistn, rogues and ruffians rob and de-
stroy ; n thing which cannot but deserve the de-
testation of all men of sense, and, in this mummer,
the merit which you might acquire, by gratifyiug
you rotlves to march against the enemy of our &a-
tire country, is uttilone.
Valiant Spaitiarde—be therefore calm, and pre-
pare for honoortible combat. Let us all endeavour
to perfect the vast plau which has been forested to
attack the frontiers of our Usurpers.
The voice of reason has dictated to me these ob-
servation*, and, as Commander-in-Chief, 1 tell you,
that I give von may word, that the French shell
not shift the else, or at least not hold their," ; .auy
other measure would bring numerous misfortunes
over ourselves. Attempt nothing, be:atre you
would tliscoticert My plans ; I have already taken
my measures, and within twenty-four hours you
shall witness the farouruble consequences, which
we all alrsire.

ing discharged his trust, I now proceed to acquaint

enunt of the oonferences which lie had with the
said General ; the most iisportaiit point or such
that, truielosing no forme! rupture to have isr yet

tussled towards persons belonging td the French

I have already announced to pin. But should you
still entertain the least apprehensions ou account of
the int ell mushier of French ships, which so much
engage your intention, recollect that we have al-
ready. with one voice. proclaimed nor fine deter-
mination not to obey any other Sovereign thou
Ferdinand VII. and that no advantage or oppo-
skins ran ever inittue us to violate that obligetimi.
And should, on the other hand, indignation

23,010 of your countrymen, who are in the North,
and. above all. expose the life of our Sovereign
Ferdinand Vii. who is in a worse situation than
the mid fro Wl*, and whose life is so valtioble to
us, that we sees etermined to fight fur him.
Ito pot, thert fore, harbour any mistaken notion,
