ETHELH ED-.VO. l.


THE efforts Of the Spanish, to repel the
power of France, have excited much spccu-
iation' md awaked the various feelings OF
mankind. While ore po lion OF the world
has trembed with snxiciy for their success,
another has zeaionsiv desired ter failure,
and complete subjugatio In THIS ih,y hive
oeen altogether s% we'd by political motives.
To me, however,, he contest has always
seemed to exhibi, in striking rnanne: the
force OF education, and particular t-bns, o
thinking. Ineir Avowed object has been t.
continue the House CT Bourbon upon .ae
throne, ana the preseiva,,on o. what they
deemed their national rights With their
monarchy they appear to have connected the
idea OF liberty. For Ferdinand and { freedom.
they have thcreforo, dreached their Eelds
with blood, and s,csiiiccd g whole heca-
tombs" Of lives upon tie altar oil prejudice.
This. presume, willappcar obvious 10 every
person whotakes AZ impartial survey of The sit
uaiion of these infatuated sons OF beria. What
will they loose by the change of power
consider nothing. Under the government of
the Bourbon Family, they were IN a state OF
absoir.r Emancipation. They might be anus
ed with the shadow oi some national immuni-
ties liz the occasional meeting of the Depu-
ties. but the substance had imperceptibly van
isned forever. The Kipg swayed the sceptre
of uncontrolled authority, and all must yield
implicit obedience to his arbitrary mandate.
The Courts were the creatures OF the crown
and the ready organs of royal pleasure. The
people were doomed to groan beneath the
toad ot enormous INSTRUMENTATION diverse,
uncertain, and suiting the conven'cncy ot the,
times. l, is here the inquisiion, that horrif
engine OF papal tyranny, is established In all
the pomp OF internal cruelty. Within the,
sphere OF this prototype of pIndamsnium,n
person is secure. fhe innocent and un,us-
pectihg are frequently. dragged from their
peaceful repose, and consigned to the m
chimes of t.rture, or ssnieneed to imprisoi-
meut and death, without even being informed
of the crimes alicdged against them. Sa-
pcrs,iiion and bigo,ry here shake thci- bae
ful torches in gloomy triumph Mental
darkness sits bwsoding over the mind tie
hand of daspolism cnthrals the natura. eneg-
sics of the soul. Yet, ar,idst these direfui
expressions, the people have been taught to
believe that they enjoy the Invaluable bles-
SIM; of freedom, and that their government
' is boun:cous, wise, gracious, benign, and leni-
ent.
Under tncsc impressions, " was. that whcn
hey saw their late monarch wheedled out Of
his crown by The arts and intrisues OF the
Freneh Empcrour, and Jssrah' attempting to
ascend the relinquished throne, they arose,
cn mdsse, with ali the enthusiasm of injured
humanity, butchered, with unrelenting fury,
hiFrcnchmen in their power. and strove,wi,

les. the troops OF the, Imperial nnidn But
wat was ne obicc, Of their enthusiastick ef-
iort Not the restoration of the sacred
