SIR ROBERT WILSON.

The,following letter from Sir ROBERT Wir,
SON, has been received b) Mr: WEATRERSirONE,
one of his 'constituents :---

" I have
,been received herewith an affectionate exprelistori of
feeling, which surpasses all my powers of description. 1 could'
give an account of the honours that have been paid me, which
were all, indeed, of royal mounting—but who can impart the look
—the tone—the heart-linking grasp of welcoming friends ?My
arrival was a day of pride tome, as an Englishman, and the more
so, because I was conscious that I really and truly ilia re re-
sent my brave and' generous countrymen in the motives which
determined my proffer of all 1 could devote to the glorious and
sacred cause in defence of which Spain forms the vanguard—
namely, zealous and faithful service to the hour of death or

I and my companions insist, in the first instance, on conform-
ing to,the laws in existence. Those companions are, Lieut.-

grandson of Lord Erskine's, who came out as a volunteer,' to

Share my fortunes, and who, I am certaui, will do honour to
his name.
" 1 have told you of the enthusiasm of this noble people—l
must, in justice to them, add that their exertions and sacri-
fices arc correspondent with their language and exaltation
of sentiment : a more honest love of country, and resolution
to defend it, never existed. All property, useful to the public
service, is given up with cheerfulness ; and there is not a man
who is not enrolled in some corps. One thousand recruits are
already gone to the army from this little town alone, and those
now training are of the best description for military service.
Every one seems not only resigned, but animated with desire to
serve. I never saw any recruits, even volunteers, with such
smiling countenances when the Viva: are giving. There is,
however, a great want of arms and armament here, and irr the
whole province. -Will England permit this event to para-
lyze such good disposition, and compromise the safety of pro.
vinces; the defence of which assures victory ? I will not believe
it. 'What Knglisliman will not give one day's labour of the year
gratis to their brother freemen of Spain, to fight England's as
well as her own battles ? The sum so raised would be most
valuable:—not only on account of the magnitude of the suM,
hut'the proof of' national sympathy. With such aid, Spain will
ilefrandtnrkk to scorn, not only the Bourbon, but the whole
confederate band .of despots. Let Englishmen think of the
glory-:-the joy—rthe inexpressible benefits of such a day of
triumph. Happy those, who may say, I was One who contri.
bitted to the Judy consumation, of an impious leager's shame
and overthrow.
" Itapperudiat may, be assured I shall never 'forget• what I
' owe Co the character of iliiiie I was representing trove mime-
, ellately,when I disembarked on the Spanish soil ; and that no-
thing. cap occur,' of 'ii public nature, to give nie pleasure 'which

a time into Gannets, under any and every circumstance, before
I take my definitive station.
" Rely on it, our triumph is certain ; but it is an object to
preserve the country, and repulse the invader as quickly as
Possible."

A Meeting of several Gentlemen (Civil and
Military) took place at the Freemasons"cavern,
Great Qucen.street, on Wednesday lait, the 21st

The important Correspondence hetweeti the
Counts Movrt.to and Antsuu. which we la i
before our Itvaclers yesterday, has-produced 3
very great sensation in this .capital, and 105
convinced all dispassionate poisons,lhat if the
French Government manifest, unequitocallYr
a disposition to adhere to their professions,
the best and wisest course for Spain will be
the adoption of such a Constitution as will at
once 'assign to the king his proper station otla
prerogatives as a Monarchr—secure for the peePt'
the exercise of all those rights and privileges that
are necessary to their enjoyment of rational libertY
and are conducive to the strength and prosperitY°f
the State,—and extricate the nation from the unit'
ed horrors of a foreign and a civil war. The EIJI:
lisp Constitution presents a model, which (thoug
according to M. de CHATEAUARIAND it iswi It
suitable for Prance), might be adopted
comparative facility for Spain, where there ts ot,;
opulent, powerful, and high-spirited' '
Nobility,
where the property and the influence of the Iv
tional Church are still extensive.
