victory most gloriotv, and singular, which has been effected u ith-
out the effusion of much Spanish blood, in which it appears we
stand alone.

With all this, we repent that we neither affect nor desire
any superiority. Whatever «e have done, we owed to our
country : it wa.s an indispensible obligation upon us. Our only
object [s, that Spain may preserve its integrity and indepen-
dence, for our Lord and King Ferdinand VII. and for that ob-
ject we joyfully sacrifice our lives. May God, who has so
clearly and marvellously shewn Iris protection of Spain, grant a
safe reiorn to its King Ferdinand VII. and then with the Su-
preme Government, he w ill determine what may he his royal
u ill, either comsnandingan union of the Cortes, or by such other
isteans as hit prudence nsay suggest, and will facilitate the re-
form of abuses and the general happiness of the kiugdom,

curiu: it upon such foundations as are firm, and subject to no
change." •

• A poor weaver. who had a wife and several small children,
and resides at Minn-le-Moor, has lately come to an estate of
upwards of 40001. a-sear. lie has obtained it from a sery
wealthy uncle, who had not ceen him for a great number of
?ears. It appears that the uncle did not forget his poor relation
while living; for he w rete a number of k tiers to the nephew itt
question, which did not come to hand, and it is suspected they
were intercepted by a designing servant. The uncle, however,
left a will, bequenOing the estate to his nephew, the poor wea.
ver, provided he claimed it within six months after his death;
and, in case of his failing to claim it within that time, the estate
to go to the servant, 1%110 is suspected of having inter epted the
letters. The will, being of a novel nature, became the subject
of tonrenation ; and so it happened, that two trasellers at an
inn in Bolton, were conversing upon the subject at the time the
poor weaver was in the house, and within hearimr of their con-
versation; and he knowing that he had a rich uncle, although
he knew not where to find him, soon learned that the deceased
person was his uncle, anti inal, left him the estate; he, in con-
sequence, communicated the cirrumstance to some friends, who
undertook to see into the business, and he proved to be just
within the time limited in the will to put in his claim.
