help must be Useless ; because, if the Spaniards be re-
solved to be free, they will beat the French ; and, if
they be not, our efforts must be unavailing ! 80, why,

then, because the' people of. Spain, or; rather; t part of

in short, this country, .by the means of one hundred

Spoin, we are to suppose that the Spaniards themselves
'Will do it, without a shilling of money! Such is Mr.
Wortley's argument of experience.-11r. WoRTLET did,

it is that has produced the invasion of Spain; and
will, we most anxiously hope, produce other things in
due time, and even in a short time. The French will

Wpy sow f There is nothing new, Mr. Wilberforce. The
principle, Alpert which the French are acting, is precisely
the principle of that twenty-bee years' war of which you
'were ORO of the great supporters from first to last. It is
precisely the principle of the war of 1515,. which you
supported. Why, " now," then? What do you talk
about slow for? As to the." Free People's and the " Re-

better than the main part of as. They know bow few
those must be who are shut up in their houses from sun-
set to sun-rise. They know how pee FARMER DEL AR
is. They know how free Joust Haves must
have bees; and they know all about the freedom
of JOSEPH Swann. They know all about Sidmouth's
Circular 'and Six Acts. 'ln short, all the world has be.

understands the full meaning of our Slave-Trade huma-
aity,—We may continue to deceive ourselves; hut, the
most artful hypocrite that ever breathed could not, if we
had him at our command, deceive the world, and particu-
larly the French, with regard to our situation.—Wi teen-
voace did not quite approve either of the motion or of the
amendment! He saw too much of good in the con-
duct of Ministers to condemn it, and yet, too much
of justice in the censure of that conduct to condemn
such censure ! He said, therefore, that be should vote
for neither the'address nor the amendment! Difficult as
it is to understand bins, we 'find him saying, that every
use had now given sip the idea, that we ought to have

Why talk about the Ministers " not having held a tone
firm enough ?" -What could their tone bare done% except
expose them to ridicule? WE said, from the outset. that
Mr. Cartsttso negocisted under this charge from
his colleagues; " Mind, we cannot go to war: mind
" that: do what you can without war : but, mind, we
"cannot go, to war." We verily believe, that such was
the injunction, under which he wrote his miserable pa-
pers; for, miserable they really are, even as mere literary
productions. Thus charged, what was he to do? Quit
his pod. ' That was all that be could do other than what
he did. The plain fact is this : we can never go to war
again, and continue to pay interest of the debt in full;
we must have peacefbr ever ; or must have what is called
national bankruptcy." We shall have the latter at last,
or else the country must be given up to whomsoever will
bare it ; but the rrench Ministers (" imbeciles" as they
are) know, that we shall continue to cr.uch for a Jong
while, rather tban make that exertion which is neces-
sary to defend our character. They are quite safe. in
preserving upon our pacific disposition; and having
made a trial of us, we have no doubt, that they, if they
Ket possession of Spain, will soon possess Oibrultar.
stupid, indeed, must those be, who believe, that the
French people do not know, that this war in Spain is in-
jurious and humiliating to us. They know well whom
the war is against. We may talk of our neutrality ;
but that will not deceive them. They, indeed, actually ap-
plaud the Mt?, because it is against England ; and we, for
our parts, applaud it, because we know, that it is against
Gatton, and Old Sarnia, and Brea tier. What ! Do
we think more about these than about the liberties
of Spain? Yes, sod a .great deal more. Do we hate
these more than we hate the Bourbons? Yes, and all
the other Allies, and the Devil himself into the
bagain. What! Would we tri of boroughm Jngers,
if,r to get rid, of them,- it were necd essary foe the Holy
Alliance to be masters of the earth ? Yes, we would.
And here we stop, for the present. .

Bayonne papers to the 23d inst. have been received this
morning. Letters from Pampeions, which still pass, say
that the-Governor is resolved to defend hiMself to the int.
The piece is far from being closely invested, and some time
must elapse before the siege can be commenced. Heavy ar-
tillery must be brought before it, as well as St. Sebastian ;
but nothing yet appears to be in train for that purpose. The
difficulty of providing forage for the number of horses con-
nected with the army, is Inconceivable. Letters had been
received at Bayonne, on the 22d, from Spain end Madrid
to the 10th last. They speak of all that is doing in the in-
terior to make a good defence. The army of Count Abisbal
daily resting reinforcements, especially of cavalry. The
news of the entrance of the French army into Spain had not
caused any -sensation at Madrid.

Paris papers to the 28th instant, have arrived, but
their contents are of little importance. There is no
fresh intelligence of an official character, though there is
another bulletin from the army, dated Vittoria, April 22,
which repeats the information we bad previously re-
ceived; but private letters from the Army calculate that
as General Molitor passed Pampelima on the 16th, he
might have arrived before Saragossa on the 26th, the
distance being only ninety miles. According to the
same letters Marshal Oudinot's corps (as before stated),
bad occupied Burgos. An article from Semlin, dated
April 10, asserts that a new conflagration had taken
place at Constantinople. and that the Janissaries, irri-1
tated by the disgrace of the Grand Vizier, had seized up-
on the only son and, Presumptive heir of Sultan Mah-
mond, and had conveyed bins to their barracks. It hi
added, that intelligence had been received of the total
defeat of the Turkish army in Armenia by the Persians.
The Ottornaus are stated to have lost twenty-live thou-
sand men in the battle. 'lbis is now given as the real
reason for the general levy ordered to he made of all
men between the ages of 15 and 50, throughout the
