' Int, our wounds, to restore peace and tranquillity to our families,

" Gentlemen, Deputies of Hanover! With pleasure i receive
from you this first homage. I thank you for the zeal with which
you bring it me. I know the evils that oppress you. Happy shall
1 be in endeavouring to cure them, and procuring you better days.
The treaty which unites you with my kingdom, unites you again
wink the Continent, from which you appeared to be parted, and
brings you und-r the protection of the great system which se-
cures to you peace and tranquillity for a long time. I know what
influence all habits have on the spirit and affection of nations, but
I know also your morality and enlightened minds. I believe,
therefore, in the oath you arc just taking to me ; and your senti-
ments of honour are guarranteas to me, that there is not one
perjurer among you. You shall forthwith increase the family of
any old subjects. Be their devotion towards me your imitation,
and your may rely on it, that I will also bear the same love and
are for you in my heart."
GERONA, FEB. 27, 1810.— ORDER OF THE DAY.
His Excellency the Marshal of the Empire, the
Duke of Castiglinte, Governor General of Catalonia,
and General in Chief of the Army, being informed
that great assemblages of troops had entered Olot,
where they were levying contributions, and ill treat-
ing the inhabitants ; his Excellency, grateful for the
good reception which the inhabitants gave our troops
on their entrance into that city at the e.td of Decem-
ber last, ordered a strong column of troops to march
thither, under the command of Colonel Geither, Com-
mandant of the infantry of the Duchy of Berg. The
column defeated and dispersed the enemy, and re-
stored trangailiity in the whole of that district. These
insurgents had the audacity, on the 20th tilt. to ap-
pear before Besalu, and to attack that post. By the
judicious arrangements of Colonel Geither, and the
undaunted valour of his troops, 150 of the banditti
were killed or wounded, and the rest were compelled
to fly. His Excellency cenycys with pleast:re to Co-
lonel Geither, and the troops under his command, his
extreme satisfaction with the good conduct and intre-
pidity which they displayed in this affair.
Signed by order of the Marshal,
I.EI.ONG, Colonel.
