Translation Of the last Proclamation
Inhabitants of the Ruife and Olinda, the
enemies of the nation and Of the King, were
yesterday vigorously repulsed from Olinda,
and Affogados.
They know already the valor and disci-
pline of our troops. The Rebels-the incen-
diaries fed like towards. Be tranquil, these
inhabitants of the capitalize confdent-the
utmost security will be afforded to your per-
sons and property.
| Some of you through ignorance and Excess
sve tlmidity, fled from the protection of the*
limits of the city. You already have had rea-
son TO know how imprudent you were.
| The enemy has destroyed the country they
trod they have committed enormous ex-
cesses.
You inhabitants, that have banished your
selves return to your firesides. You shall en-
JOY that security you have n right to expect !;
the force you saw was more than adequate to
your detence-but more, it has been augment
ed-you will be free from danger. Come then
to the arms of your family, to the arms of
your friends-the country is abundantly sup
piled with provisions; we want nothing from
the interior. Come then let me entreat you
LIN the city, business will resume its usual
course the tribunals will be opened the pub
Tic officers will discharge their different duties ;
we shall receive no injury from those tyran-
nical aggressors that pretend to dismayus The
madmen-they possess neither valor, force,
nor reason-the cause of the nation and of
the King, is our cause. Live the Nation, the
Cortes, the King, and the brave defenders of
Pernambuco.

| there may exist some errors of small import
1t may be well here to state, that there are
now In Pernambuco many persons, who at the
suppression of the last Instruction manifested
rather too much zeal in denouncing and in
| forming upon people who took part in that
unfortunate business. Thus dread and appre-
hension may be imagined, if the Patriots get
| the upper hand. An awful fate awaits them
II they fall into their hands. The retributiye
hand of bloody retaliation will fall heavy upon
them for being instrumental in the hanging,
shooting, beheading and banishing TO Angola,
oil SO many of the relatives of these same peO-
pie that are now marching against them To
conclude this political sketch, which is almost
