LATEST FROM SPAIN,-By the arrival last
evening of the schooner Tamworth, Captain Hamor,
in "a days from CadiZ we received file of papers
to the 18th of March inclusive, which contain Ma
drid dates Of the 6th.
| At the Session OF the Cortes on the 5th, depu-
taton was sent to the King with reply to his
speech. This reply is TOO long to permit our tran
stating the whole this late hour but we have selec
ted the following passages, which contain the most
important OF its sentiments
Z" The unheard of pretension of debating laws TO
independent nations, it not resisted will draw in its
train the ruin and dissolution Of the States of Eu-
rope and an endless war of determination will re-
dUce this cultivated country to the barbarism of Asia
Your Majesty has replied with dignity to the notes
Of the powers and the Cortes have only to sub
scribe to your just reflections on the conduct of his
most Christian Majesty, and to agree that It would
be unreasonable TO reply to errors anti social and
ndrcorous in the Constitutional King of Spain to
make an apology for our just cause, in opposition
to malice and hypocrisy. They assure your maes-
ly that the energy the and the constancy oil
the Cortes will be the best reply to the speech Of the
most christian King.
The Cortes. Sire, will never forget the profound
reflections of your majesty reason and Justice will
not he less valiant hen tn genius of oppression and
servitude. Those primo pies shall be our model,
and being convinced of the firm and magnanimous
character Of our honorabl- nation incapable of bear
ing injustice or nfamy, jealous of its rights, and
ond of the .1lory and the great deeds which have
always distinguished it they doubt not that they
bore up the throne with such cOns'ancy and such
Sacrifices against the terrible eglons, the able cap
aims, and The military genius OF the wonderful man
who terrified for time the rest Of Europe, they
shall know how to defend in the same manner and
with the same courage and patriotism, the honor
and dignity of Your majesty, and The independence,
the rights and the glory OF the nation.
IF this nation performed such prodgies while de-
prived Of the aid ard cooperation Of your Majesty,
what will not be capable of doing when intimate
| y united with its Monarch, favored by the Consti-
tuition Of 1918, and with your Majesty disposed to
contribute with all your power TO realize its hopes.
The liberty Of your Majesty, your security, and
that of the Government, ere above all things in
dspensabie to such cooperation. The Cortes have
taken all the steps for removal to the place you
and your Government shall select.
