The Depiltv Jener made site following motion :
—" I demand that the Cortes invite the King to

Majesty direct all the prisons of the Palace to con-
form to this invitation, and that this be an invaria-
ble rule with the army. I propose, besides, that
the Deputies act on the same principles—caoh in-
ilividuallr, *ince it is fur us to set great examples
to our, fellow-citizens."
After some discussion this motion, vehich was
read a second time, was approved of, without any
alteration, and referred to the Committees of Com-
merce and Industry.

should we be surprised Cut a Spanish Depute
should, entertain such notions, and that a Spanish
Cartes should countenance them, witch •we find
them even in the ita i
ieteentli century warmly ad-
arrested in Great Britain ! The good Deputy
JANEII ought to know that the first stiruplaut to
indu.try is want, and that alien nations,
artive at the point of satisfying the mere
cravinga of II dine, they are further stiinulatetl
to the .11:iiono•ot of wealth and the means a'
enjoyment by the unnumbered n'etiticial wants
which grow upon them as their sense of luxury
incrcasts. The cottager, who never fancied a
hijlwr enjoyment than' the scanty produce or
his little field, and the rude produce of his
neighbom's loom, trill never strive to oivaiii the
of afrordo,g. any farther gratification to Ins
palate or his vanity ; but send him to the city, and
let him wish for better food and liner clothes, mid
he will labour with-ten-fold assiduity until he ca:i
command the objects of his desires. The Deputy
JANER must kwon tbit, belt he cannot apply it to
the 'flans of maim's, and by now endeavourino,
reduce all his countrymen to the state of bent.:
contented with their own rude produce, instead or
striving to stimulate their industry for the attain-
ment of something more valuable, he does all in
his power to check the activity of their spirit, slid
to cramp the productive powers of the country.
