PROCLAMATION OF POPE PIUS VII.
TO THE CATHOLIC SPANIARDS.
Beloved Children! lowirho deplore at the foot of
the altar the wounds given'. an religion r you who are
still mindful that we form one people of brethren, join
we;• the Vicar of Christ; approach ye families, the rem-
nant of vast destruction, to thithrone of my predeces-
sors, to see me, like Daniel, surrounded by lions, pre-
served hitherto by the inscrutable designs of Ptiovt-1
DENCE,I—I see the vessel of St. Peter, entrusted to my
care combated by the fierce Apostate, whom myself
have placed on the Throne, and who, like a dege-
nerate son, pants for the destruction of his mother,
the Church, to whom he had sworn fidelity at her
altar. But let us draw off the veil that covers
so great iniquity. The first victim that was sa-
crificed to his ambition has been your Shepherl
Rome, the centre of Faith, and the Shield of Re-
ligion, has been prostituted. The idol Dagon has
been united to the cruel Antioch of our days to
accomplish the destruction of Religion, which.. is
the great bar to his perfidious designs ; however, do
not despond. The successor of St. Peter is still ex,
tont, though overwhelmed with.afiliction ; groaning
Under his chains, he lifts his eyes and tremulous hands
to HEAVEN, imploring incessantly the protection of
the Gon of Hosts over his flock—Oh ! the happy
effects of religion ! In this fatal situation, my souL
penetrated with Christian feelings, learns with trans-
port and surprise, that Spain, happy Spain, has re-
mained true to her Religion and King. I hasten,
my beloved children, to surmount the shackles by
which I am depressed, to transmit to your kingdoms
the circular that will testify to you of my ,gratztude.
Arouse, and combat like David, the imperious Go:

streight situation to which he is, like myself; doomed,
precludes the means to him of manifesting the senti-
ments of his magnanimous heart. I feel not the
strength of saying more. If I survive the calamity,
and you spill your blood for religion, your Country,
and monarch, to whom I supplicate from Heaven all
happiness, the world shall be witness to my gratitude.

Letters of the 26th from Holland state, that al
the 'passengers who lately arrived there by sea, hot
been sent to Verdun, where they are to be kept as
prisoners. The object of this increased rigour, for

not adopted : nor will even this rigour prevent it eb,

THE BREST FLEET.
From the latter part of the following Journal of
an Officer on board our fleet off Eres:, it appears
that the French fleet have once more ventured out.
We hope Sir Alm Duct/fon= will be successful in
intercepting them before they return to pert. The
frigate lost in their late attempt was one of the finest
in the French Navy, and carried 40 guns.

THE FRENCH PRINCES.

Monday afternoon, the Etatva.tys frigate, cem-
manded by the Hou. Captain DUNDAS, arrived at
Harwich, having on board Madame the Countess de
LILLE, the Duke and Duchess of ANC9CLEME, Count
and Countess d'Debtas, Count E FIENNS
and twenty-five persons of the suite of the Countess
de Luxe. They did not land till yesterday me:tains,
when they immediately set off for Gosfield Park.—
On passing Yarmouth, the frigate made a signal
to the MAJESTIC; Admiral RUSSELL immediately
hoisted the Royal Standard at the main, and the
Union at the mitten, and fired a royal salute, which
was repeated by Admiral DOUGLAS'S fiag•ship, the
ROEXUCK. On eatering Hatwia harbour, they-were
saluted by the %woos sloop of war.
