But the prefer, is the are of Revolutions. The .re-
mendous revolution OF France which has levei.ei the
proud oaks and the humble ihruts has prepared the

followed certain in this country, dnrug which
1t was declared, that any in the Kingdom was

was IN high favour with thoie in France who did ut

ecms be quite as much in favour with thofe who
are represented to be 70 forward to extnsuifh the

We fincerely hope, however, that the event above
alluded to is uufounded, for ANTIQUITY depre-
cate any examples Of King and Prince at once
dePoied and rpt of their hereditary rights and prvi-

OF every thing lacred in government and efIea real

We not only doubt the truth Of the above report
becauie IT rests authority fuicien justify the

strongly inclined think that Bonaparte, 70 far rom

IN SPAN. The iPeculations this iubjea found

character. The Spanards hate the French beyond be-
iief. A revolution that would route any tort of en-
ergy IN the Spannh character, would draw along with
It pirit Of national independence which is altoge-
ther hostile to French connection; If the Spanlards
threw on the Bourhons they would never iubmt TO
the Borapartes. Their virtues and their defects are
wholly unlike thofe of the French. They are too
proud, and found in their moral principles TO b.
