The following estiraordinetry paragraph appeared
in the Morning Chronick of yesterday :.

We are not a little surprised that Mr. NARY
should indulge his fancy at the espence of decency,
by copying unprincipled articles from a Journal that
has been so publicly and so justly reprobated; but
his eccentricity has become almost proverbial, and,
in the present instance, he appears to have been
ilourishing his weapon eery indl•c►iminately in Men.
tifying Lord Y/1211011116 character with that of a
professed TRAITOR !--The original article alluded
to in the above paragraph, was published In the
STATESMAN, on the WM of August, 1811, but it
• nn means corroborates the assertion of Mr.
PURI', respecting the genuineness of the accounts
copied from his friend, GoLosurro's Register.

Four years have now rolled over our heads, since
we entered seriously into the eventful contest on the
Peninsula, during which time, nearly oar hundred
thousand of our countrymen have fattened the soil
of that portion of the globe with their blood, and
fed the birds of prey with their mangled limbs.—
The advocates of war, and those-who riot on the
miseries of others, find a triumphant consolation
in France having lost double that number on the
same hostile plains. What a picture Is this of human
depravity, on the part of those who cement their In-
terests with blood, and of folly, nay, even madness,
en the part of these who willingly become their
accomplices ! ! The English and Irish are naturally
generous, as well as naturally braes: generosity
and bravery form a prominent pert of their national
character. The sons of Albion and of Erin, for.
get their own sufferings, when contemplating those
of others. This principle they Inherit from the.
earliest Ages of their cirilizattou, and from this
principle, so adorning to their characters and to hoes
man nature, they will never relax, unless, like a bow.

den of the hand that directs it. This may be dons
by too long sacrificing the bleed and treasure of Sri.
taro on the altar of the Spanish cause, while the
Spaniards themselves seem indifferent to the Woe !!
The human mind and body, taken conjunctively, can
bear but a given portion of sufferings, even when
those sufferings are Seaweed by the hope of pro-
mised happiness at the end of a contest, or by the
stifles of gratitude from these en whose account their
sufferings are endowed. But when neither hope of,
personal reward,ner ratite& from others,inspire the

tionately short. New, have the people of the
United Kingdom any hope of being rewarded
by a store of happiness for the sacrifices and
manifold privations they are daily enduring on ac-
count of the Spanish war ? er do they 'met a grate-
ful return from the Spaniards foe those sacrifices and
privations? The answers are plain :—instead of hope
of future happiness, nothing but despair and ruin'
stare them in the face; and as to gratitude from the
Spaniards, how can we 'sped it from tins, while
we see every footstep of the war marked by their in.
