prepare himfelf to Coffer all the rigouts of war. The
Commander of a Moorifh corfair, having fallen in
with a convoy, carrying vitnals and medicines, at
the expence of the Pope, to the city of Marfeilles, I
then infefted by a deßrudive plague, not only re-,i
frained from capturing thofe (hips, but fpontanennily
convoyed them to the port of their dellination ; and
the Englifh Admiral, on a fimilar occalion, threw
balls and !hells into Cadiz, with an intent of reducing
it to a heap of ruins.
" Spaniards! Thnfe who now publith a law at
Buenos Ayres, enjoining flares to obey their mailers,
are the fame who fomented, and Rill continue to
encourage, in the ifland of St. Domingo, the molt
atrocious rebellion recorded in the annals of nations.
We have all witnelfed that, while the fanguinary
Deffalines, at the head of innumerable bands of
al ins, marched along the coatis, with the mur-
dering Reel in one hand, and the incendiary torch in
the other, with fire and (word, fpreading defolation,
deftrudinn, and death, wherefoevet he went, an
Englifh (quadron vignroufly blockaded the capital,
in order that no one folitary victim might efcape the
African fury.
66 Indians! Yon who are fuch interefting objects of
the tender care of our melt amiable Monarch I That
nation, which has taken poffeffion of Buenos Ayres,
has ever treated the Aborigines of America and Afia
with the moll inhuman cruelty. When, in the courfe
of the lan century, they found it impracticable, by
force of arms, to fubjugate the brave inhabitants of
the Ft:irides, they concluded a fpecinus peace, and,
during that peace, regaled them with poifoned liquors
and clothes, which caufed deaths without number.
Their Eall India Company has already extirpated the
greater number of the mild inhabitants of Malabar,
Bengal, and Coromandel, and would extirpate them
all by one tingle blow, if they required not their la
boor in the manufadories of their richeft and fineß
Ruffs. That terrible fimine is Rill recent in our
memory, when millions of Indians periled, and
which being forefeen by the Englifb fa&ories, they
timely tinted all the rice and other provifions, which
the fcanty harveft of that year had yielded. Indians!
wherefoever the Englifh nation has gained a footing,
your's has been enflaved, reduced, and deßroyed
without mercy.
" All you people, inhabitants of Peru! let us, on
this important occation, difplay all our loyalty and
courage. Let .us fpeedily wafh away the foul Rain
calk upon the arms of Spain by the furrender of Bue-
nos Ayres. Let us inflantly fly to arms, in the de-
fence of our holy faith, and of our beloved Sore
reign; and let us plunge into the deep currents of
the river La Plata, thofe outcafts of fmngglers and
pirates, who having, by furprife, poffeffed themfelves
of oneof the moll interelling partsof America,diffident
of the power of their arms, and in dread of our jug
vengeance, now attempt, by means of the &tellable
artifices of feduCtion, to induce us to forego the
performance of our molt facred and inviolable duties,
and to turn deaf ears to the pathetic and penetrating
voice with which our country now calls upon us for
affiftance." •
