which the .Tines furnishes for this common attack
is of no higher character. According to that journal,
the neutrality which we now profess accords but in-
differently with the zeal which we displayed three
years ago, when the remains of the revolutionary le-
gends threatened Spain with a new revolution. By
a little more deliberation, the Times might have dis-
covered the essential difference of these two. sitssi-
Itions. The attack of the refugees had all the cha-
iracter of an invasion. The King of Spain had no
army to repulse it. He himself solicited our interposi-
tion. The movement of the rebels in Catalonia has all
the character of an insurrection. It was a part of our
engagement to support our ally against the army
which we had assisted him in vanquishing. Our
concurrence in 1824, was the natural consequences
of our concurrence in 1823. We must have dis-
avowed the one, had we
,refused the other. It is
impossible, however-, without any abuse of lan-
guages, to compare a foreign with a civil war, a pro-
ject of invasion with domestic- discord. It is as
clear that one of these two cases falls within a con-
sideration of policy, as it is clear that the other be-
longs to internal administration. Besides, the
Spanish Government had more need of our succour
then than now, when it calls not for our assistance.
The organization of its army announces that its
power has been regenerated, and the stippression of
this revolt will still further prove that fact. We
may predict it wits more confidence than ever, for
the presence of the King of Spain will instantly dis-
sipate those bands which she arms of his soldiers
could-not even have touched. This intelligence has
reached us, while we were writing this article, which
receives from it a new sanction ; it redoubles our
confidence in the approaching issue of these events,
land dissipates the exaggerated alarms for whisb they
had furnished a pretext.

which Catalonia is unhappily the theatre. It is to

the Revolution, which has troubled and put into
confusion that country, as well as many others,
which, by exciting the passions and inflaming the
public rsind, has rendered laws soheavy, and orders
so difficult. Spain, after her revolution, must have
found herself in the same condition as Italy, Ger-
many, England, and many others, after those great
commotions which have, at various periods, agitated
them. For a long time after these commotions,
there reigns in men's minds a secret restlessness,
which knells them from dream to dream, and from
excess to excess; for there yet exists no instance in
which the issue of a revolution has satisfied every
one. Not unfrequentry we see a party taking up
arms without even knowing why it took them up.
Hostilities commence, and the word of command
comes afterwards, Have not ourselves submitted to
this inevitable* law ? There is nothing but weari-
ness—the interposition of good men, the firmness
of Government, and its moderation, that can at length
quiet men's minds. Sooner or later things will re-
sume their proper place—sooner or later the people
are undeceived, with respect to a commotion, with,
out fruit or purpose. Happy tire those whom expe-
rience does . not compel to purchase this lesson at
too dear a rate.
