ADDRESS

PRESENTED TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF
ANGOULEME BY THE GRANDEZZA OF SPAIN.
".MONSEIGNEUR—The undersigned would believe them-
selves unworthy of the name and the titles which their fathers
have transmitted to them, if they delayed for a single moment
the respectful expression of their gratitude to your Royal High-
ness, and the free Manifestation , of their pure and invariable
sentiments towards their King and their Country.
" The Grandezza of Spain feel themselves especially honoured
by the duty which is imposed on them, of distinguishing them-
selves by the sacrifices which the safety and dignity of their
legitimate Sovereign demands, and the prosperity and glory of
the loyal nation to whom their destinies and their interests
are united.
" By a singular combination of circumstances after our.
class had furnished the attendants (le service) fixed for the fatal
journey of the august family of our Sovereign, the presence
of other Grandees at Seville, or in the towns on the .road must
be considered as useless to the interest of the King and the
State, and perhaps even serve to give arms to the enemies of
the good cause, or to weaken those with which they are attached.
It is here, excellent Prince, in the capital of the Spanish Monar.
chy, where, as in its centre, the unsullied loyalty of the Spa-
niards to•their King, and their profound respect for their laws
slid customs,- have shewn themselves, that we find the post of
utility to objects so sacred, and of honour to ourselves. The
faculty of lightening our oppressive hearts, and of uniting
our wishes and our efforts to obtain a desired restoration, has
been given us on this happy day, when he who by love is the
son, and by blood the heir of his most Christian Majesty, has
appeared in this Capital surrounded by so many thousand
brave men, announcing to us the generous design to restore
liberty to our King, and to bring back among us order, peace,

and justice.
" These are the precious words of your Royal Highness.—
The oath which accompanies them is the t august name of the
, •
BoUrbons, so dear' to France and to Spain. The illustrious
Prince takes Heaven to witness, and we invoke with noble
boldness the remembrance of the fidelity, and the patri-
otism of our ancestors anti our own conduct during the capti-
vity of our KING, as a pledge of the uniformity and the
energy of the wishes which we formed, that such great blessings
may be soon restored, and for ever secured to. this great nation,
so unhappy in this last imlancholy period, and so worthy of
possessing them. Accomplish, Sir, accomplish speedily-, and
happily, your noble mission. Unite the llberty of a King of your
blood to thejust hopes qf a viii inn, the friend V.Pranee.• May the
united efforts of these two generous people produce their Coln-
Man good, and a new and eto-nal.bond of friendship. Let Mean
and fatal passions yield to bene;icent concord. Let there be
henceforth around the Throne only one family animated by
.she same spirit,—let a happy and wise harmony be restored
between the Spaniards and the civilized nations of Europe.
Far from the intrigues of an arbitrary state of Government
(les Nit ;Arne* trim artitraire ), the forerunner of disasters, as
from a destructive anarchy, may we In a happier day, and
may out children say, with Meltable and durable joy, King
FEIWINAND VII., a Bout; nox, a cative in the palace.of
his ancestors, to the great grief of his faithful subjects, and
the magnanimous Spanish nation subjugated by a sinister
fitc-
tion small in number, recover their liberty and their laws. They
behold the return of the beneficent and necessary yoke of a
•• hOly religion, of public morals, and the salutary empire of
the laws, by the succour of France, under the direction of its
" august Prince, the Duke of A NoouLEME. •
` We ourselves, or those who gave us existence, were the
',witnesses and deFired to be the partakers in this generous
enterprise, and offered, front the bottom of our hearts, for its
• Success, our fortunes and our lives.'
" God preserve your Royal Highness for a long series of

years."

A letter from Madrid, of May no, says—" The Regency has
been installed. It has commenced its operations by the nomi-
nation of the Ministry. M. de Vergas Laguna, formerly
Ambassador at Route, has the department of Foreign Affairs;
N. Garcia do la Torre, of Grace and Justice; 111. Salazar, of
'the Marine ; IM. Erro, of Finance ; Marshal San Juan, of
War ; M. .Artiarcs, of the-Interior: The Regency has named
Egiiia, Captain-General of the Army, and N. de
Camposacrado, Captain-General of Castile."—(ibid.)

(Prom the (',;Thet;intiortnel. )
Paws, JtNE 3. Several journals of yesterday gave a repe-
tition of a pretended letter from Seville, of the 10th May.
" The exaggerated party (that is to say, the party of the
Cortes) arc decidedly, it is said, vanquished here (at Seville),"
and by whom, is it believed.? The party of Torreno. Listen—
" There is much talk of the arrival of the Count de Torreno,
and it is believed that Morillo and all the men of the 7th July
are in concert with him, with reference to all that is about to
be done at Seville."
Put what is then the party of Torreno, and who belonps, to it?
Is it, as is said, the new Ministers who have been called to the
direction of Weirs ? It .would be well to explain what are the
intentions and opinions of this party, on which so many hopes
seem to be founded. if to know what it wishes we recur to
antecedent circumstances, the only indices we can refer to that
are not otherwise pointed out, we find that M. de Torreno
formed part of the Cortes of 1820,, and that he never said any
thing that could give rise to a suspicion of any intention on his
part to destroy the Constitution of 1812. It may be also known
that M. de Torreno, under several circumstances, made known
his personal opinion on ,the subject of the establishment in
Spain of an Upper Chamber, and which was not only not in
favour of that measure, lint he even expressed his conviction .of
the impossibility of realizing such a project.
Who besides does not know that N. de Torreno was also a
3lember of the first Cortes cif Cadiz, and that he exercised
the influence of zeal and of talent in the arrangement of that
.same Constitution of 1812, which he is now indirectly charged
with the intention of despising and annulling?
AVe may add, that M. de Torreno has been absent .ftvm the
Peninsula more than a year ; that he is at present in London,
where he intends, it is said, to stay some months, and that it
i very difficult, if not impossible, for him, after so long an ab-
sence from his country and the theatre of events, to be able to
exercise sufficient influence to place himself at the head of a
party which is supposed to be destined to destroy the labours
of his whole political life. It must be acknowledged that such
defections and such projects cannot be suspected; and to
licheve in their existence we must see them realized.
[From the Courier Francais.l-
- Ma 27.—Every thing proves that Switzerland
has not reached the end of- the humiliations inflicted by the
-dominant system. Immense concessions have been made at the
expence of national honour, of the security of the country, and
of public liberty; and we learn that the high powers are not
. yet satisfied, it bing made a matter of complaint to our depu-
ties, that the wishes of the Swiss arc for the rebels. 'We know
not exactly yet what course legislation will take, to repress
these wishes. This complaint., in fact, rendered into intelli-
gible language, amounts to nothing.
In the midst of so many subjects of disquietude, there •re-
main to us some causes for hope. The Bernese, whose ells-
position has been long so little satisfactory, have ceased to
proceed in concert with the partisans of absolute power, it hav-
ing been seen that Republics, even aristocratical ones, find no
more grace in the eyes of -the latter, than Constitutional king-
doms. The Bernese have not digested the abuse heaped
upon them by the Drapeau Blanc, and they burned with
rage at hearing their Hellen, ex-countryman, declare to them,
in set terms, that the Swiss Cantons were nothing—Mu-
nicipalities without any other right than that of exercising the
tower species of justice in the places of their residence, subject
to the pleasure of the legitimate Sovereigns of Europe. They,
were much surprised, and certainly with reason, at seeing them-
selves considered as Jacobins. They have likewise always been
against the Protectorate granted to the Cantons of Yawl and
Argovia, and against the pretensions of the Oligarchs of Bern,
and they would turn out with good-will against every measure
arising out of these_pretensions.
