report circulates in this capital, that a
deputy TO the Cortes means to propose the
division of that body into two chambers or
houses, the upper and lower; after the ia
shion OF England and France. Let US re-
spect the political opinions OF our fellow cl-
tizens; but let US honor and esteem still
more. our constitution. Such division OF
houses as that proposed would not leave us
vestige of it. We are not servile imitators
of strangers; to them the plan may be con-
yenient and useful, while to US it would be
detrimental Moreover, the present depu-
ties have no power to make the least altera-
ton in any of the articles of our wise code.

Suggestions made and advice given 10y a
citizen of Cadiz, to the most illustrlous bi-
shop OF Cadiz.-My first suggestion will be

Ifpublic functionaries study only their Own
convenience in their employments, they

benefit. but for the good of the nation, and
that when they do not consult this end en-
SPECIFICALLY and faithfully, there will not be

of things, quit his station and take to some
other scheme of livelihood.
