SPA U 4.

Already the attempt of
.Pontain, though it failed
of its direct object, has begun to produce good fruit.
It will be seen by the subjoined letter, that Fauna-
NAND has dismissed from his service many of the
worthless persons supposed to have been principally
instrumental in advising those severities against the
P4triota which have disgraced the return of Fcant-.
NAND to his throne. The as,evnbling of the Cortes,
to which the \ KING stood pledged on his return
(though hitherto lie has not perfumed his Royal pro.
noise), mg now follow; and, if so, vengeance may
'cc t.ll upon the heads of the miscreants who have
been the cause of so many miseries to Spain s

" MADRID, OCTOBER c

‘• Yesterday was inhered in with .a sweeping list of
about SO persons; who had been all about the King's
person,.or in his confidence, who have been disniissed
anti banished with more or less disgrace. At the head
of at is the Duke of San Carlos, the celebrated nego-
tiator of the disgraceful treaty of Valency : but he
crows o f s.i,h some credit, having been named Am.
bassad-r at Vienna. The others consist of his Priiate.
Secretaries. Officers of his Household, Counsellors of
State, Officiales of the Secretaries, Lawyers, solve.
tiers, and all the low trash, who hate been intrigning
behind the curtain, and giving the most pernicious
advice ever since his room to his throne. Some have
ticesi sent to their native villages, and others to Ceuta.
It is not exactly known who has had the merit of
working this miracle upon the King. It has been
managed with secrecy, and the whole- of the dryer,
are said to be in his own hand-writing.; but be it who
it wilt, it may be considered a lavouritble omen, and
hailed as an event likely to produce the best elects in
this unfortuo ate country. I send yon the copy of a
list which has been goien me. which I believe to be
pretty correct. There are besides many Priests of in-
terior note, who had been infesting the Palace with
their baneful intrigues. Should this measure be int
lowed by a general amnesty to the librrales now un.
der prosecution, and die calling of the Cortes, as sonar
go so far as to say, then the King and country might
yet be saved from the precipice, to which they were
fast approaching. It is to be remarked, that among
them all, there is not one name of an individual who,
is, or ever has been, supposed to be friendly to British
connection. They are generally of the •ci devoid
French faction, so that it may be considered as a
triumph to England, and a severe blow to all her
enemies at this Court. Some of the Ministers are
expected to go nut, but at present I cannot name them.
