following answer OF his Majesty 10 the Message Of
the Cortes:-
"GeMlemen DcputieS--I have received with salts
faction the Message which the Extraordinary Cortes
addressed to on the lth inst and in witnessing
the conformity of their sentiments with my own, /
derive new pleasure from being placed at the head
OF a nation disting ushed by SO many great quail
ties.
"The sentiments Of national honor and indepen-
dence, SO profoundly engraven on the hearts OF
oPanlards, offer me certain guarantee that existing
political institutions the object Of their choice, will
remain unaerable, Notwithstanding the efforts OF
their most bitter enemies. How can entertain
the least doubt on this score when witness the
display OF patriotic sentiments and generous resou-
tons which Will for ever render memorable the
Sttings of the National Congress of the 9th and
lth OF this mouth.
"They have shewn, Gentlemen, what can be done
10y nation, when general conformity OF senti-
ment gives generous impulse 10 COZ hdence. They
form the most positive and most eloquent answer to
the caumnous imputations which abound in the
Communications from the Foreign Cabinets which
have excited the surprise and indignation oil the Ex
ltraordnary Cor;es.
"The nations win continually witness the free
manifestations OF my sentiments and principles,
which will convince them that the Constitutional
King of the Spaniards enjoys the Tree exercise OF
all the rights granted him by the fundamental code;
they form an exact idea of the true origin OF the
disorders which afAict the country.
"The sacrifices which in these circumstances are
required fur the honor and independence OF the
State will be great, but will cost nothing to a nation
habituated to endure and to listen to no other voice
than that Of liberty and honor.
| GFor myself convinced more and more of the
imperious necessity hat all the children OF this
great family assemble round the Constitutional
Throne, will calmly follow the path which my
duty prescribes to me--and if the spectacle OF a
nation destined TO defend its independence < laws,
Twill not satisfy those who would invade it, will
place myself at its head Of victory in the most
lust of causes which is at the same time that OF all
the free nations upon EARTH
