ArDRESS TO 11-IF. SPANISII ARMIES.

MAna to, Dye. 28.—8 y his Excellency the Prince
of Peto4-, and Generaliflinio 4,i his Catholic M
totem tile fillowing Manifetto has been poi:hated :
" The King has ec)ndeteendeil to commit to me,
as G,tieralitlimo of the ftayr.l Armies, the conduct
of the war ctromenced with Cm eat Britain ; and
c:motand.o that all the p: inzipal (Acers of his do-
mitiioos c.: r4!"pand privately Nith p;:e on the. Itt'i:fts
connefted with this event. To es.roply with the terms
of the e...t.4-..l.4tice repald it rn•-, at.d to fulfil the ho-
noorah'e deities e-joined nof lb:. lopteme authority
over h:, gallant trn:'p cri>h v hie!: I am it
is expedient that I cail lour .I;:qivity try In} al in
his canit, and adopt the m ft cffeetual means to di-
charge this high and importtiot office.
" It is onivetfally know-, that when we were in a
Rate of pm of round peace with Engl tnd, hoftilities were
commenced by that coontry, by the capture of three
frigat. s ; one was deroyed in the contelf ; a regi-
ment of infantry deltined for Minorca, was made pri-
loners ; many velfels laden with grain were taken; and
others tinder the burthen of one hunched tonsovere de-
flroyed. When were there robberies, dick acs of t, ea.
chery and arbillittation committed ? When our Sove-
reign a,!rni:ted the Hiles of that nation to a free and un-
ditturbed commerce,and gave the neccilltry fupplies to
their (hips of war. What proflinacy and degradation
in the one ; what honour and elignity in the other.—
On the view of this perfidy. is there a Spaniard v. 11( le
indignatian will not be Excited ; is there a foldier
who will not grafp the weapon ofeb_ll:uCtion ? aVe
feamen, three hunched of yr ur brethren have had
their niarTled member • feattered to the winds ; one
thoufand ate deprived of the light of Heaven in the
dungeons of your enemies. Valiant fiddlers, an equal
number of your companions in arms are deprived of
the fwords they knew how to wield, and are carried
to a remote Maid, where they will either perilh with
hunger, or he conflrained to ur.ite with the ranks of
the detefled foe ; remember, then, your facred obli-
gations. Generous Spaniards, a few innocent and
defencelefs fiffiermen are reduced to the Lowell flep
of human milery, and their aillifted wives and defin-
ed °Mining, implore your pity, and demand your
protedtion. In fine, thoufands of families, expelling
fupport from the wifelorn of the Pate, in a leafon of
famine, are brutally deprived of the lublifience pro-
vided for them, and exclaim, with the voice of thun
der—Vengeance ! Vengeance ! Let Its then, my
countrymen, obey ; the King expects it, and honer''r
and reqidre it at cur !mitts. If the Englifh
have forgotten that the Wood which circulates in the
veins of Spaniards is the same which flowed in the
breath of thole which triumphed over the Carthagi-
nian, the Roman, the Vataial, and the Saracen, it
is time that the recollation (boob! be revived ; it is
time to convince them that we v.iii preferve the fame
of our anccliors unkallied, and (hew to them that we
will perform One ditty to pollerity, if it require that
our ranks fhould be thinned, to add to the glorious
catalogue of Callillian lice.ifrn. If there diltant Wan-
ders have attributed our defire to ;:rell.rve
within our borders to lamentable weakneft, or to dif-
honourable fear, let them at lea a be taught that the
latter can never difgrace the bofum of a Spaniard,
glowing with all the ardent and liberal imprefliors pe-
culiar to his country. Qi/ickly will we teach them,
that a loyal, virtuous, and brave people, attached to
religion, and enamoured of true glory, can never be
inflated with impunity, much leis can it endure an
;finance of fanguinary violence directed againa its
dignity and independence. If the Englifh, unmind-
ful of the principles of humanity refiretted among ci-
vilized nations, abandoning all Ihame and remorfe,
have only fought to obtain poffeffian of cur treaftires,
which we fhould have peaceably delivered to them,
had they been entitled to the property, we will recal
to their memory a fad which we: ended had been
imniverfaily acknowledged—that the abufe of power,
the violation of public tight, and the mad eat:dies of
dcfpotirno have ever been the awful prefage of the
fall of Empires. Let them hide their dithonoured
I :rods; Itt them tremlL ir. the onomplation of this
i` -gotten wealth ; let them (budder before the bloody
sitoms of their aggreffion ; and let an eternal mark
4 t i-famy be impreffed, and univerfal deteltati.:l be
excited for there examples of public atrocity.
" Valiant Spaniards ! the nobleneft. of your charac-
ter no longer adntits you to be int:Clive witneff..s of
there difgraceful fcenes. The love of our 'King for
his people is perfeCtly known, and leaves no doubt
that his numerous vaffals will coincide in his wilhes,
and gratify his expettation. To arms then, my fel-
low-Soldiers and countrymen, and engage in the war
in the way molt likely to hurl a terrible darn/lion
u; on our enemies ; but while we fpread the terrors
of battle, let us not, in imitation of our enemies, de-
fers thole general maxims of humanity which are re-
fpefttd by all regular Governments. In order that
the Chiefs of the State may proceed is this impor-!
tau bands with the energy which the occafion re-;

quires, and the King con:mands, 1 proclaim, in his,
Royal name, that it the ftieeds of any enterprife
fhould not be equal to the «ifdom by which it is plan-
ned. and the gall:oat v with which it executed, they
will not be confidered refpoMibk for the event, bur'
they will be liable to the confequenceb if they du not
put in aaivity the full extent of the refonrces with
which they ate entruited. N.ltions not provided with
the means s% ith which we are fu pplied, and placed in
lituations much more critical, have known fu well
how to ceconomfe their Emile(' powers, as to mak:
that people which dared to trample on their rights.
fl.el the effeets of their rcfentment. Fan the public
ardour into grneral conflagration; avail yourfelves
of the magnanimity of a whole country, and predi-
gks lofe their charaNer and become familiar.
" Under the prefent circumtiances, it becomes the
Governors of the Provinces to (pread the generous,
fp:rit of enthufiam arnongfl the troops under their
caters—it behoves the venerable dignitaries of the
Church, and the Civil Officers in the various political
departments, to animate all orders and tanks of men
to atTert the honour of their King and Country, by
the powerful influence of example, and by the attrac-
tive charms of eloquence.
In cafes out of tit: ordin try current of events, it
will be especlitatz to recur to means equal to the oc.
cation—and each province of the Empire will, ac-
cording to its peculiar lituation, vary in the efforts
it direa., to annoy the cominon enemy. Learn how
to bind wiftlum with pattiorifm, and let every em-
u:at:der, and every that ia in obedience to him, pre-
' font before the Sovereign and Citizens of the State,
and before the eyes of all Europe, deeds worthy of 11
tha country to which they belong. When any op-
portunity is afforded of deflroying the foe, wait not
for orders from a ditlant ofhcer of government, let
net delay diminith the impralions of nafcent valour,
and let not the natural c auage of man be frittered
away in the collition of idle formalities.

"-Contemplate con•raband commerce as the high-
ell clime—it is conducive oly to fatisfy the avarice
rf ore enemies—the manorakflures they offer you, arc
prepared by the reeking hands of th3fe who are ba-
thed in the blond of your faters, and your brethren.
Imprell all arcund yo•r wi it a fettle of horror, at the
praElice of this nefarious inte?courfe, and when it is
univerfilly felt, A.hen nut a Spaniard will difgrace
himfclf by this pernicious conneetion, when Europe
111311 underhand her g,:nuine interefts, and every port
f the Continent (hall be doled upon there intruders,
then will our veng-ance be complete—the infupport-
able arrogance of the Iflanders will be humbled; they
will be loft amid the chaos of their own ruins, and
they will be recognifed only as the violators of public
tight, and as the tyrants of the Ocean.
" May the fpirit here applauded be that of the
whole nation—may we all of us readily facrifice our
private indulgence to the general caufe ; and if there
Ihould be an infulated charader among us not ani-
mated by this noble difpotition. may he catch the
flame of patriutifm from his affociates, and not dif-
grace the Spanifh rime by frigidity and indifference.
The age and infirmities of Come will not permit
them to take a perfonal part in this glorious enter-
prize, but they may by their opulence, or by their
counfel conduce to Cite general defign ; and this his
Majelly expeets, and I implore of them—and thus,
by availing ourfelves of every refource with which
GOD and Nature have furnilhcd us, the effects of our
indignation will be terrible to our anemies. In fine, if
any particular Member of the State fhould with eaclu-
five to undertake fome fcherne which he thinks likely
to annoy the Englilh, and for which he fhall.require
the atliflance of the Governm-nt ; let him communi-
cate his projeds to me, and I will provide him with
the necetfary means, if his purpofe fhould be fo well
formed as to conduce to the injury of Britain, and
the glory of Spain. (Signed)
"Madrid, Dee. to, 1804." PRINCE OF PEACE."

CADIZ,, Dec. 28.—" The dreadful malady which
has fo long ravaged this unhappy city is completely
at en end. The port is thrown cpzii, and our com-
munication with the interir.r is renewed. As we
had not the misfortune to be afiliaed by this conta-
gion fo early in the fcafen as it visited Malaga and
other places, it was by no means fo deftruaive. Ac-
cording to the molt authentic accounts, we have loft
about five tboafand petruns, who,were, for the moll
part foreigners. Indeed foreigners teem to have
been principally fufceptible of the difeafe. I had a
moll fevere attack; filch was the violence of my head
ach and vomiting, that I had little hope of recovery.
However, nn the (id) day a:.zer the commencement
of my illnefs, I was declared out of danger."
SAME DATE.-16 The violence of the weather, from
the 24th intl. having driven your blockading fqua-
dron from their Ration, fax very valuable 'hips have
entaed this port from Vera Cruz and Lima. Their
arrival was, I utfure you, a very agreeable turprife
to our merchant,. They are fume of the richeft (hips
expated this fel:foil."
