and pathetic sentiments of your Majesty, and they hay
perceived the certain pledges of those invaluable prin&ples
upon which are grounded the throne of your august daugh-
ter, and the destinies of the country. These sentiments,
so noble and so exalted, have resounded through the whole
of the monarchy, and the representatives of that ma;nani•
mous andgenerous nation, of whose desires and opinions they
are the interpreters, would not discharge their duty unless
they laid before the throne the frank expressions which cha-
racterise them. Your Majesty, as the mother of Isabella
11., and as Queen Regent of Spain, is pleased to speak of
the loyalty and the prudence of the Spanish people, and re-
lying on those qualities, you entertain a just hope of seeing
a speedy termination of the calamities of civil war ; and
this agreeablii tribute of praise, which is justly due to
the virtues of the people, will powerfully stimulate them
to seek fo'''the preservation of their inestimable advan-
tages in the new era of reconciliation and patriotism.
The enemy of the national cause will fall before the des-
tiny that Chives him from our soil ; your Majesty will
see the throne of Isabella consolidated for ever, and the
%stien ujit have attained the eNalted Oka of its desire;,.

" Always desirous of devising efficacious means of realiz-
ing hopes so solid and so flattering, your Majesty has placed
your confidence in Ministers whom you see honoured with
the confidence of the nation. In announcing how advan-
tageous it would be that the representatives of the Spanish
monarchy should also grant them their confidence, your
Majesty anticipated the judgment of the Chamber, and a
fact, the existence of which is founded on important and
real public grounds. The Chamber cannot, without this
conceiving these, refuse its confidence to the Ministers, for
it represents all the national interests, and wishes to lend
its aid in developing the great resources which the nation
possesses, in order to meet its obligations, and contribute
towards the performance of your Majesty's promises that
the Government shall, without any loan or new taxes, pro-
vide for the extraordinary demands of the moment ; in fine,
the Chamber does not lose sight of the necessity for a
due application of its resources towards the improvement
of public credit, an important object, with which arc
connected many others of such absolute interest that the
political existence of nations frequently depends upon
them. The reiterated proofs which the Sovereigns who
are parties to the quadruple treaty continue to give to
your Majesty of their adherence to the principles of that
treaty, and the promptitude with which they accede to all
which your Majesty deems favourable to the cause which
we defend, afford the Chamber the greatest satisfaction. It
learns with sentiments of the most lively gratitude that your
august ally, the King of Great Britain, has authorised the
transport of arms and ammunition for sustaining the legi-
timate throne, and has permitted British subjects to take
up arms in defence of a cause which he has protected
from the beginning with generous predilection. The Cham-
ber has seen with equal pleasure the essential services
which have been begua to be rendered by the foreign le-
gion, whose translation from Africa into Catalonia has been
authorized by your august ally and uncle, the King of the
French, who is faithful to the same treaty. The 10,000
Portuguese, who, *according to a treaty with Her Most
Faithful Majesty, have begun to enter our territory, will
contribute powerfully to those happy results which your
Majesty expects from their co-operation, and so much the
more so as our cause is identified with that which Portugal
defends with so much glory.

" The same amicable relations exist with the Emperor of
Brazil, the-Kings of Denmark, of Belgium, and of Greece,
and with the United States. If other Powers have not
deviated from the line of policy which they had adopted,
the dignity and independence of the nation remain unim-
paired. "The Chamber has learned with pleasure that ne-*
gotiatious have been opened with the States of Spanish
America. It will deliberate upon this affair with a zeal
commensurate with its importance, and will endeavour to
merit the confidence which induced your Majesty to con-
sult it. The valiant Spanish army is, from its fidelity and
constancy, worthy of the eulogy bestowed upon it by your
Majesty ; and the rewards dispensed to the generous hearr§-
whiCh serve as an impenctrable barrier to the insurrection
are justly due, if they be not proportionate to the merit of
the receivers. Your Majesty, the nation, and the world,
know that Spanish soldiers have jalas:4:4-•
by noble and-1,--I,7rivarinalTe7, and know how to up-
predate the just cause of an innocent Queen, in whom
are centered the liberty and prosperity of her country.
And the country offers to them, by the hand of your
Ma jest}, in the establishment of the Hotel of Invalids,
a testimony of gratitude superior to all other recom-
penses. When it becomes a question to put a speedy
issue to the war which desolates the provinces, there
is bat one voice and one sentiment among Spaniards ;
they enthusiastically make every sacrifice, however extraor-
dinary it may be, on account of the sanctity of its object.
Urgent and imperious necessity, and the general anxiety,
opportunely interpreted, have dictated the arming of
100,000 Spaniards, in order to exterminate at once the
monster who preys on it. When the nation has so eagerly
offered its co-operation, when gifts and ardent wishes abound
on every side, while the occasion and the imperious impulse
which have inspired this thought retain their vivacity, how
shall the Deputies refuse their assistance, to bring to a cer-
tain and legitimate issue an undertaking which promises real
advantages, the greatest of which will be to spare the blood
of the citizens ? Whoever knows the prodigious effect of
enthusiasm, and the influence' of words upon things, espe-
cially in determinate cases, will readily appreciate the rea-
sons which have induced your Majesty to give the name
of National Guard to the internal force composed of the
a
citizens. ,

(The address then congratulates her Majesty on the im-
provements she has already introduced into the administra-
tion, and which she promises to. effect in the different
branches of the public service, and particularly in what
relates to the organization of the municipalities and provin-
cial banks, and the regulation of the clergy. The Cham-
ber adds, that it will examine with particular attention the
bills concerning the liberty of the press, the elections, and
the responsibility of Ministers.)
