ly ordered to be occupied on the 23d we
marched for Soto la Marina, which was
abandoned by the inhabitants, in conse-
quence of the alarm spread among the
people by lieutenant colonel Garza, the
commander of the royal troops, who per-
suaded them that we had come only for
plumber. A little time afforded them an
opportunity to undeceive themselves, for
the good discipline established, and in
deed the good disposition of every man
OF our little army, soon proved TO them
that they were deceived, and they accor-
dinghy returned. On establishing our
quarters here, we were waited on by
Monseigneur the bishop Mier, by whom
divine service was celebrated and TIE
Dehtm Lauddmm chaunted, in consideration
OF our happy arrival and success. The
bishop also delivered very interesting

which obtained the greatest attention
from the people.
The inhabitants have been ever since
contending who shall render us the most
service; provisions, horses for the saddle
and for draft, have been brought in album
dainty. Three hundred OF the inhabi-
tants have joined the army, and the whole
force, except small garrison, marched
for ST. Andero, where head quarters was
established on the 18th OF May General
Nina mustered his force OH that morning,
and there were on parade under arms

companies of infantry of the Royal Ar

trements, having abandoned the cause of
Ferdinand VII. From the information
which the general has obtained, operati-
ons of decisive character are about TO
commence, and we expect an action in
few days; for the royal commanders have
now no other chance TO save their honour
than to fight speedily, else they will We

Whilst under foreign Governments, the
people are often times obligated by royal
mandates TO payreluctant honOrs TO their

men OF their choice, they have to ac-
knowledge no other mandate than that of
Freedom.
Impressed by such considerations, the
inhabitants OF Lynn, known as a manu-
featuring people from the early settle
ment of the town, heartily congratulate
you on the present peaceful and prospe-
rous state of our Country, and fondlv in
dulge the hope that tie blessings of liber-
