The teal of Spaniards' "for 'the Catholic religio

has been so fully demonstrated, that it is impos-
sible to doubt it for a moment ; their blood has
flowed to preserve It, and they will shed the last
drop of it rather than allow themselves to be de-
rived of so invaluable a blessing--a danger to
which they would be exposed by a Government
with Chambers, in consequence of seductive
speeches. Let us repress, then, and,,if neces-
sary, exterminate men who are so pertinacious;
and, to avoid the contagion, let us re-establish
the institutions which experience has proved to
be the best calculated for the preservation of
" The Ayuntamiento "have thus come to the
religious part of their representation. Nothing
is so'fit to render men contented as the regula-
tion of their conscience, and accordingly the ob-
servance df the law of Jesus Christ Is the best
means of teaching ohedienCe, to all those which
emanate from the supreme civil power, respect to
every authority, and the fulfilment of all social
duties. Preserve, then, in all its purity, the
Holy Catholic religion, by eradicating errors,
end teaching its true principles. Tl,O first of
these great objects will be obtained by re.esta-
'Wishing the holy tribunal of the Jnquisition, and
that, and nothing but that, is capable of producing
such salutary effects. The experience of more than
three ages hui fully demonstrated that Spain, by,
maintaining that impregnable bulwark in her be-,
sow, maintained her adored religion, unstained by
the frightful tints of heresy, and at the same time
kept herself free from the wars that desolated other
countries. The Inquisition by placing a strong wall
bet wean heresy and Spein, prevented the country,
from suffering injury, because hilt the depositary
of its faith was preserved pure. Besides, that holy
tribunal is what the impious most fear ; against it,
their envenomed pens have been employed during
the threeyears of libertinism; but its very shadow
dismays them, and consequently it is impossible
not to perceive that it is of all things the best
calculated for exterminating errors. All the de-'
demations of the malignants 'against so holy an
institution deserve no attention, since the snarl.'
aces which they pretend to have been made of
innocent persons, exist only in their imaginations,
and, were even all they assert granted, on a com-
parison with other tribunals oar Holy Inquisition
would be found to have the advantage. But this

is not the place for n dissertation oti that point.
It is sufficient for the Ayunterniento to point .to

the reasons which induce them to solicit the re-'
establishment of that bulwark of religion.
" The errors which have been introduced, once
exterminated, it then will be necessary to con-
sider how future generations may be imbued with
religious and truly patriotic maxims, since thus
will be raised up meet decidedly lovers of their
religion anti their king. Education entest there-
fore'be Intrusted to the most zealous and spot-
less teachers, since, on the first elements of in-
struction depends the future happiness of Wl-
vitivals and nations. The innovating philoso-
Ores were we'll convinced of this truth ; and
under that conviction, one of the most distin-
guished among them declared that it was intik-
prniable for them to get an nscendaucy over
the minds of youth. On that account they
exerted themselves to overthrow that establish-
ment which throughout nearly all Catholic
Europe Ives intrusted with the important
duty of instruction—namely, the Society -of Je-
sus. It is well known what reproaches and sar-
casms were vomited against that order on Its ex-
tinction, and on the expulsion of its members from
different countries. But it is precisely since that
retype►ctable body was extinguished, that there
has been a rapid diffusion of the ideas hostile to
the altar and the throne, which at length caused

the convulsions which we have witnessed. The
most effectual remedy must then, be that which
opposes the greatest obstacle to innovators in
propagating their not►ons. Accordingly, to re-
store the.desuits, and confide to them the instruc-
tiou of youth, would be to give a final blow to
that ill-oenene►d sect, which has inflicted-eo much
evil upon us.
" Deign, then, to attend to the representation
of the itiltabitants of this city represented by its
Ayuntamiento. Do not permit any kind of limo-
tation of our Government, nor suffer our beloved
Sovereign to he deprived of any of the preroga-
tives sworn to him by the kingdom, on his ascend-
ing the throne. Re-establish the Holy Tribunal
of the .Faith, that the impious may be struck
dumb and put to flight, and return no more to
propagate their pernicious principles.
consign the education of youth to the Society of
Jesus, to perfmm that duty in the same ma►ineer
as before its extinction, in order that our tran-
quillity may thus be lasting. _

" Please to receive the tribute of the most cor-
dial demonstrations of the respect of this Ayun-
tumento, nho never, cease to pray that the Al-
mighty %Oil speedily deliver our beloved Sove-
reign from his captivity, and preserve for many
years the lives of your Highnesses, of which the
