Ater it an impu,ieut irripQ‘sit ion, which is a libel
Upon the Emperors of Russia and Austria, Who
are said to have given their consent to its adrnis-
among tht.acts of the Congress. Thee folly of
loth' consent would. he-equal to its injustice; for if,
1!)e principles iqion'W high t he'usurpat ion was found -
ed
should be introduced in the dothinions of either
of those Potentates, and a Revolution should hurl
them frOm their Thrones, they would by this do-
cument have given fheir sanction to the destruction
of themselves and the elevation of• some Military
I..uffians to Imperial PoWer. therefore, till we
hear more of tie matter, we shall consider this

Piotest, though. we insert it, to grtify the curio-

sity of our Readers, as a mere attempt to shake the
Throne.of the Bourbons, and to effect, if possible,
the restoration of the vile Corsican line to
the seat of power from %chid!, for the happiness
of Europe, the bead of it was so justly discarded.
Among the minor causes of doubt as to the au-
thenticity of this curious Document, we. may ob-
serve,that the.Ex-Empress, as she is stiled, does not
call her THE KING OF ROME, but PRINCE
CHARLES NAPOLEON, and it iS not probable that
she would sink time imigher in the inferior title of
tbis offspring of usurpation and tyranny of the
most odious and horribly description.

Our Readers will he gratified in seeing the
tottitinuation of CRANm ER'S admirable Letter in
our last page! this day, and we trust that it will
Make a due impression upon those who are absurd
enough towisli for the Legislative Restoration of
POPERY in this land, which possesses the. purest
Religion that ever contributed to the happiness of
mankind iu this world, and leads it to a better.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM PERPIGNAN, JULY 18

When the Spanish Government sent orders, af-
ter- the sentence passed on General LACY; to send
him to Majorca, it was because fears were enter-
tailed that the numerous friends whom LACY had

in his favour. The most urgent representations
Were made in favour 'of the- General by seve-
ral officers :of the highest distinction, in order
to obtain a -mitigation. of the sentence of death,
but they were ineffectual. On the arrival of Gene-
ral Lacy at Majorca, .his sentence was read to
him, told he was shot on the morning of the sth.

for the service of his country, died with equal
emitpos(lre and -fit moess. ".All. that I regret,"
said he, " is to (lie by the hands of my ancient
brethren in arms it was on the field of honour,
hile combating the enemies of Spain, that
a warsi•n• liks me Ought to finish his career."
