of the Spatich people is, beaotted • 00 WA-ridden;
the insurrection must ultimately fail. If, on the
other hand, the mass of thq, people tiriderstand and
appreciate the benefits of a Constitutional Govern-
ment, despotism and bigotry,, mutt fall, either before
this qr some future .and early insurrectionfor in-
surrection, it will be observed, has been, n annually
returning phenomenon in Spain since the restoration.
A person looking closely to the recent history of
this unhappy people, will see that they are not so,
debased as to be fit for, or capable of enduring the,
foot of despotism or priestcraft upon their necks. It
may be expedient to refer to the return of King
FEiDINAND in 1814. The following is the account
of popular feeling at that time, given by the Con-
ciao, a Spanish Journal, written with talent :-
4, We cannot conceal it—two parties exist in Spain.
The one consists of those who love and support the
political reforms which have taken place—the other,
of those who oppose, or hypocritically pretend to
cherish them." The latter, as soon as FERDINAND
touched his native soil, threw off the mask, and
stigmatised their opponents with the most odious
names. 'But still the Cortes and their partisans main-
tained their ground in so formidable a position, that
FERDINAND, on his return, remained several days
hesitating whether he should or should not accept the
Constitution. He was, in the meantime, assailed by
some of the Nobles and a band of Priests, and his evil
genius prevailed. He annulled the'Constitution, and
declared all who should abet it, by acting, writing,
or speaking, to be rebels and traitors, whose punish-
ment should be death. A slanderous and treacherous
intimation was given at the same time, that the
Counter-Revolution took place under the auspices of
England.

The Ktsc; arrived at Madrid. Some creatures,
hired or imbruted, cried, " Live the King, down with
the Constitution." But this was not thought a suffi-
cient pledge of loyalty, and it u•as deemed prudent
to -arrest in their beds, several hundreds of persons
within a few nights. Thus, then, there was still a
dread of the Cortes party. The servile cry was kept
❑p only by a miserable and scanty populace, some
•unworthy Courtiers, and the Priests--not, however,
all the last•mentioned, of whom some wrote and
fought, and even advised the KING, in. support of the
Cortes. The following passage of as Address pre-
sented, with great solemnity, to the KING, by the.
celebrated University of Salamanca, deserves to be,
recorded :

Reseated on the throne of Spain, a throne preserved at the
expense of such rivers of blood, your Majesty enjoys all your
rights, and the Nation may promise itself a futurity which will
indemnify it for the sacrilices which it has made with so moth
courage and generosity. Yes. Sire, the Nation expects final the
reign of your Majesty the reward of its heroic devotedness ; but
if that Nation, solely given tip to it, enthusiasm in the happy
event of your restoration to its wishes, has neglected to be anxi-
ously careful about its future political interests, the generosity
of your Majesty is not less bound to fix, on solid bases, theexist-
euce acd the happiness of your People. Your Majesty his
spoken. These bases are already fixed in an irrevocable mei-
ner : they rest on the word of a Spaniard and a King. Real and
personal property will be guaranteed by laws which secure good
order and the public tranquillity. ' Every one shall enjoy that
salutary liberty, the exercise of which is the first blessing of Ci-
tizens, urAls.; the temperate reign of a Prince, who must be the
father of his subjects. The Press also will enjoy that just liberty,
which, *while it does not degenerate into licentiousness, suffices
for the cJrnmunication of useful ideas. and the progress of the
art, ani scienc,:s, the propagation of Which enlightens the Go-
vernment itself, and tends to produce that mutual respect so
necesaary among all the members of society. The Public Taxes
shall be fixed in concert with the Representatives of the King-
dom, assembled in tortes; and with Me concurrence f Flint lines,
your Majesty will establish the laws, that are in future to deter-
mine the rights of all the Citizens."

This w as not the only proof of party in support of
the Cortes—an insurrection broke out in Navarre,
under the celebrated MINA ; armed bands sprang up
in Estramadura, Andalusia,. Arragon, Valentia, Ca-
talonia—and. king FERDINAND sent amongst them
some troops, armed with the sword, but without the
scales of justice. It should have been observed, that,
by this time, he had re-established the Tribunal of
the Holy (Vice, in order to restore " the 'Holy Ca-
tholic and Apostolic Religion of Spain to its pristine
purity," which had " suffered from the sojournment
of different sects, almost all infected with sentiinentsj'
&c. and this is the only mention which Ferdinand has
mode of his British Allies, • since he ascended the
Throne ?f Spain. He pursued this disastrous policy,
of placing the reins of Government in the hands of
the Priesthood; and after not only the Holy Office,
but the Pope's Nuncio had been re-established in the
plenitude of power and honours, it was proclaimed
through Spain, " that the concord between the
Priesthood and the Government was secured, and the
bases of the tranquillity and safety of the State, could
no longer be shaken." How that has been verified,
let experience decide. What year has passed with •
out an insurrection? What class of the community
is most zealous for a Constitution ?—The military.
—lf the Cortes party was strong in 1814, how much
stronger must it be now, after the provincial prisbns
have been filled by the Inquisition, the peasantry
harassed and plundered by exactions, military and
clerical, under the sanction of the Crown, and the
merchants violently stripped of their property ? It ,
may be said, then, that the active influential majority
of Spaniards wish for the blessed protection of legal
rights. They wore Catholics, as now, when they
enjoyed the early Constitution—one of the freest
possible—so well described by ROBERTSON. They
were Catholics at a much later period, when they
applauded the wisdom of their SOVEREWN) the

grindfathei of the present, in banishing dm..looks.'
If further paio f were ,wantittg, let us look at the
policy of BONAPARAL The great boon-Offered by
him to die nation, was the Suppression of the Roll
c e (which, indeed,' he did suppress), and the
restoration of the Cones of the Kingdom.--Let, then,
the favoure,rs of despotism and bigotry despair, if
they have no other hope than in the debasement of
the Spanish people.
