Ever since there was the slightest probability that
the despots of Europe would unite in a crusade
against Spain, we pronounced such an act as one of
the most wanton, and at the same time one of the

most_ iniquitous outrages, that one nation ever com-
mitted upon another. Even the attack on France, in
the early part of the Revolution, the partition of
Poland, the nameless violations of territory and of
national rightsthat have been committed during the
last thirty years, including the late military occupa-
tion of Naples and Piedmont, yield in atrocity to the
meditated outrage on Spain.
The Spanish people, after fighting with bravery
for six years, and contributing by their valour and:
devotion to that consummation the legitimates of
Europe had, so long and so devoutly wished, the ruin
of NAPOLEON, have met with the basest and the
blackest ingratitude. _
The Spanish people were no sooner rescued from
the power of the invader,- than they recalled their
weak and treaeherona Sovereign ; and tendering him
;the Constitution *hick they bad 'formed under the
auspices of their Alliesurid expressly sanctioned by
them by Treaty, pointed out the conditions on which
they would have 4, this. man to rule over them." Fen.
DINAND solemnly swore to maintain that Constitution.
:The Holy Alliance sanctioned his acceptance of the
Throne on these terms; -and had be not violated his.
'oath, and the solemn compact into which he 'had en-
tered, by a trrianyitiOre extensive and more fatal,
than drat of ..railteiti.:iite tranquillity of Spain had
been fully efitirtict? The fron hand of despotism at
length roused a agile resistance.a new Revolution.

restraints. All theriiidteaa.ta reestablish him. in
the same authority, to-make Wm tweet ane* to they
Constitution, and akiiiitik -move elorelf.that he did
not again overturn it.
Had the Holy Alliance possessed but.common sense
or common honesty, they *Ould httel been the first
to have given their legitimate brotber ot Spain better'
'counsel, and to have cautioned him against bringing
himself and the very name of King into disgracei-by
violating all these bonds of honour and sincerity
which can alone bind subjects to allegiance. And
yet, notwithstanding the good faith and-moderation
which the Spanish reformed Government has exhi-
bited, a crusade is to be made against Spain, to
force her back under the galling tyranny of the,
Inquisition : not for the sake of FERDINAND, for he
has been treated with contempt by the whole of the
Holy Alliance—no, it is only in unison with that
systematic plan which is the basis of the Holy Alli-
ance, and which declares war against the principles
'of freedom wherever they may appear. •
The contest into which Spain is now to be forced,'
is one in which all the civilised nations of the world

dreaming nut their-wretched lives in conlinensent—that thote
Spaniards, we say, ' can only hold their Political Institudoni
from the hands of #IIII.DINAND Vll.—that' he alone can give his
subjects fit institutions? All that we can say is, that if one
Revolutioo bat ism been able to eradicate such sentiments from
the hearts of the hoary bigot liouanoss, we, hope another wig."
FROM THE MORNING CHRONICLE.-
" We are glad to find that there is but one feeling in this Me-
tropolis with respect to the King of FRANCeS Speech. It was
never alluded to yesterday, but in the language of contempt and
indignation. The principles avowed in it appeared still more
odious from the prastitotion.of Religion with which they were
associated. Instead of approaching the Dote with the reveren-
tial awe which his creatures ought never for a moment to lay
aside, this conceited old man talks of the Goa of Sr. Louts with
an impudent familiarity, as if he were as much at his command
as the Colonel of one of his Swiss reginients. It is shocking to
tee a family, lately dependent for bread on the bounty of the
tradesmen and mechanics of this country, so elated with an ele-
vation to which their own merits never would have raised them,
as to dare to impute to the Austoutr a participation in their
guilty attempts against an independent and unoffending nation,
and to introduce his name into their theatrical buffoonery. It
was this prostitution of Religion under the old regime, this intim.
dent association Of it with everything wicked and secular, that
eradicated it from the hearts of the people, endiet; them at the'
breaking out of the Revolution as completely stringers to piety
as were the profligate -Court.

FROM THE PUBLIC LEDGER.
" Prepared as we were for a Declaration of War on the part
of the French Government, we are- not yet recovered from the
painful surprise which the event itself has occasioned. Tile
war is so unnecessary, wanton, and unprincipled, that though
aware of the violence of the Cabinet of the Thuilleries, we could
not persuade ourselves that the King, with. one kg hi tbe,grave,
would venture to set human and divine laws at deftauce.
“ We have often expressed our opinion as to the ioiquity of
this war. But the promoters of it are proof agaiust human
censures; and are evidently resolved to govern in defiance of
human opinion. There is no. mystery now in the case ; and
consequently no excuse for the friends of liberty, if they suffer
themselves tube taken by surprise. A Proclamation has just been
published, in the name of four arbitrary Monarchs, in which
they unequivocally say, that they will tolerate no form of Go.
vernment bat such as emanates from the will of Sovereivis—or,
in other words, Despotism. By this revolting declaratiou, more
than a hundred millions of rational beings are threatened with-
the most degrading bondage, when all education, except of tke
privileged orders., would be declared a nuisance ; and all.pre.
perty, as well as power and honours, would become the patrir
mony of a few. This menace is followed up by another; inQ
notice is given that an army of -one hundred thousand awe. are
about to march into Spain, to try the experiment 9are fits% sod
_the order has been already issued to lay that.fute cntmtry wait+,
'with fire and sword, unless her people consent to hold their
lives and fortunes at the discretion of one of the weakest and
most cruel Princes that ever sat upon a Throne.
