ty was not the object which Legislators
ought to encourage, but q social brio, oil

Ferdinand, and the monks and the rah-

it is proper that those of our Ul,ras who
triumph also, should know exactly what

English people generally should know
what the addition of several hundred mil
lions to their debt has achieved in Spain.
II is curious, al the same time, to con.
trast country like Spain, lhinly inhabi'
ted, indulging in illicit intercourse, with
out industry, where robust men amuse
themselves with robbery and murder by
way of giving an occasional variety to an
idle lile,-wilh Ireland swarming with

10 later paper, the writer replied to
the remarks on the first communication, and
ma ini aimed that the reason why the consti
tutioual cause did not succeed in SPAN, as
we'll al in Italy, was that the revolutions
were made by genslsmen, and the COM
mon people, and the majority OF The MD
ding orders did not interfere. He insists
also, that it Is folly to assert that the Spa
nish peasantry are Dst veil of, that 10 An
dalusia they are magni6centIy dressed,
have abundance OF horses and mules, &c.
He says that the French revolution was a
democratic one-the present an aristocra.
tic one. The editor Of the Morning Chro.
nicle in renarkiug upon this communica-
ton cites other authority to show that the
comparative happiness OF the Spanish pea
sanlry is proved by the testimony OF ira
veIers. and admits that in bis opinion the
condition of the peasantry OF Spain is more
happy than that OF the labouring people
in the south and west of England. We
shall make some further extracts from
these papers on this subject We would
not hav. il inferred from these statements,
that the condition of Spain at large IS by
any means enviable, but Our present pur-
pose j, to show only thai the Constitution
never bad the cordial support and good
wishes OF the people.
