Ferdinand has created the Duke trAmiouleme Duke of
Use Trocadrro.

It is extremely amusing to hear the New Times con-
tinually recurring to the "pledge" of Ferdinand, on his
resonation, in ittl4 :—a pledge wlikch was as foreign to
ltis inontious and disposition, and as much the result of
coml.*, as Lis removal from Madrid to Cadiz. This
"pledge' was forced upon him by the men who thought
they deserve his gratitude for preserving his throne.
"pledge" was the work of the authors of the con-
siltation, against which the New 7u,ies rail, so much;
and Ferdinand only signed it, because he felt himself for

the moment in their power! That "pledge" was violated
as nom as Ferdinand dared to bring his own temper into
play. As extmagant, insolent, and sangainari

despotism was• “the good, wire, and free consti•
Setlea" which the King promised. Illurder and rapine
'waived ;he royal commission. The furious fanatic
Vint was lit loose, and the country became a prey to the
worst evils. Yet the Noe Times refers to this •• pledge,"

as a means of security for Spain, and says .g it must be
"redeemed, unless it be meant to teach mankind that there

is no security in i, royal word—that thrones do not rest
Nee faith, or justice, or honour." This servile journal, by
the admission that the pledge is not yet redeemed, proves
beyond all doubt that the throne of Ferdinand is not
handed on any such basis : nor is it credible that any

Meg but compulsion can restrain Ferdinand within any
Sweat beside. To all principle, to all honour, he is a
putts stranger. The historian cannot refer to a single
act of bis life, that does him any credit. Insolent and cncel
is"prosperity, and base, servile, and dejected when in
airesity, be would in cos►non life have been the olject of

postal contempt. Hi% elevation milking hir more
callpicoauss renders his actions more mischievous ;

let indignation supersedes the contempt he would
Stiorwies merit. The wickedness of putting Rim)
vim hit trip!, atierws the general execration of inankind.
Thed•atiotig that soldier was sanctioned by the commis

aims of residual himself. Itis a paltry sabtorforre to soy
that the King was compelled to sign such commissions. If
aoisk they were entrenchments upon his Jost authority,
