" Upon go.:tig to great square this morn-.
latip howeve!-, I win:es* rathcv a 'tragical
'nation of ;be gi(wiou-i event. The square wits ,
crowded %vitt) Spaniards, shouting Vim les Ingle,
ses ! but in one corner I sa'.v au unusual bustle
among the mob, and desired a young Spaniard to
inquire the caoe: He soon came back and *in-
(mined me that an unhappy Frenchman, who. had
not given in his name and residence to the proper
authorities, upuu the French army leaving
eras discoverer; be concealed in a house,
and that :he mob had become furious to have him
Out, to put him to death ; and he particularly told
me, the imprecations of the women (Many of
whom had knives in their hands) were dreadful,
and he bad little doubt 011ie poor creature being
put to death if he ..yas riot soon released.. Feeling,
as I ever have, the greatest horror
.at the idea of
assassination, evencif a Mortal. foe, I immediately
-endeavoured to make my way through the crowd;
which I did so far as to get within sight of the
door of the house ; when, to mv\inexpressible de-
Oght,i found half a dozen of my breive countrymen
in arms,,draw n up, protect irig.a falien fin: from the
fury of an enraged Spaukh mob, who .most un-
questionably would hAve torn hint to pieces. Row
these brave lads came there I cannot yet learn :
there was no officer with them—there heing none

here hut two Or three sick, not ,even non-com-
inissioned- officer that I could discover.—These
fine fellows were some of the convaleseeno, all cif
different regiments, frnM the hOspital (which has
on a small scale been lately established here), and
who were at the first moment of the mob assem-
bling, considered as the only sale-guard for pour
Mounseer. " Upon seeing the scarlet coat posted
at the doOr', rte.' feelings were nittr..l relieyed, and
as I was in a most uncomfortable situation, I got
back withdifficulty to a more open
.part of the
square; in a few minutes therealier the Spanish
Commandant Of the town, a Colonel, a fine look-
jug young'man, came with Spanish guard,, and
made his AVtlythrough the crowd,' got into the
house, and from a balconynddressed the mob, told
them that the rrenchtnan and his wife were in-
stantly to be sent to prison, and that an attorney
or man of the law had been sent for to take an in-
ventory of eviary article in the house, which was
confiscated to the State, and hoped., in consequence

The moo called out Lieu Commanitatite, and seem-

cession moved from the house, headed by the Com-
maudiitt uno some.of the magistrates : then came
the 'unhappy mail ah,l his wire,' looking pale and
terrified, in the 'middle of his sturdy guard of ho-
nest Englishmen. I followed the crowd, and saw
the poor devil enta his prison with full as much
joy, I believe, as most people leave it."
