from which we make the following extracts,
contains its own opinions, as well rs those

The cause of the Dukes resignation may
be learned from the following extract from

The Courier holds the following language
respecting the note of de Vnlele;
But hal, III point Of fact, is the letter'pf
Fillele, il it ha not the precursor Of 4 de-
cIaraiion OF war ? We have read il with
all tke attention in our power; we have
applied to it all the consideration which
such document is calculated t0 excite
and we should belle our own judgment if
we were to say we can discern in it any APP
Proclamation To peace, unless, indeed, Spain
does, of herself, what nobody believes she
