VALICANI' J 14.00, of pa-
triotism has, in siren days, hu-st fart %% it .stich
brilliancy. that it t144-consuinun the hipie.sueo•of
the tintion.

You desire to be free, and in a moment you
found a protecting Government, and au antic, ans.-
ious for battle and for triumph.
Those Legions of Vaudois, who, for a time, stir-
prised some of your cities, which they delivered up
to plunder : thomi insolent men, puled up with
the vietorii:: they had gained over nations that were
not united ; who sold by whllestile the plunder of
Europe; and laid waste the most fertile hi Ids with
hie hod sword, have felt what the love of country
aad religion can do.
Valiant Atidalusians, yours is the glory of Ma-
re go, of Jena, owl of Austerlitz. The Nines
that adorned the brows of those coaquerors are at
your fact.
Immortal glory to the hero who has renewed in
the Sierra Morena the exploits of Fabius Ma:l-
iners! Our children will say--., Castanet has tii-
iiniphed over the French, and his glory did not till
the houses of our father; with mourning."—Un-
fading laurels to the brave who destroyed the inso-
lent oppressors of the human rave ! Blessings
upon the wise Government that defended our rights
and prepared our triumphs !
Yet you aro notliitlabisians alone, you are Spa-
niards—Ely, children of Spain! fly to your brethren
on the Ebro, the Douro, and the Xuear; fly to
break the chains of the captives of the Togo*, of
Mantanares, end of Lot:wept.
Blot out from the Spanish *oil, even to the last
footstep of thelei perfidious wretches— 1 venee in
their blood the iiimlts they have offered to the
shade of a weak mil cowardly Government—Fleur
you not the rte, of the murdered on the ‘2d May ?
bo you hot keen to the lamentations of the op-
pressed? Are }on not moved by the secret sighs
of our Ferdinand, weeping his separation From his
countrymen ?
War and venzeaiice I—Tremble, tyrant of Eu-
rope, upon your throne, where you are covered
with all sorts oft runes.

Valiant Andalusian's ! think no sacrifice too great
that is to recover your King. and restore your ins
&pendency. You possess a country. Be a great
nation—Follow the paths of glory and of virtue,
ohich, imelzr the God of Armies, have-led you'to
this first victory ! MADRID. JULY 30.
In the middle of the night. Joseph Bonaparte set
off, and took the road to France, accordiaig to pre-
parations prvviously made.
Some say, this precipitate flight was occasioned
by the surrender of 'Dupont, with a considerable
number of prisoners ; ethers think. that it is the
result of the discovery of a plot of two French Ge-
nerals. The truth is, that this morning, more than
3000 left this capita! on the road to France. The
fact i* certain, the renew doubtful. We hope that
tu-morrow there will Dot bee Frenchman here.

11AgIZAPIAI., JULY 31.
We hear that Bessieres is retiring hastily upon
Burgos. Tins iii considered as most favourable.—
Some stir it is the effect of the entrance of our army
into Madrid, and of the flight of Joseph Bonaparte;
others, that some revolutionary 111:1VPIlltIlib hare
broken out in France, and that Nupf,kon has been
seized. °doers, with more probatr:!ity, consider it
ass the effeet of the defeat of Dupont and Modal.
