i'm whose talents Alexander places the greatest

the Buonspcsse family in that island. Being :

of that family, during the minority OF their owl
sons, elected deputy to the Legislative body Il

record an inrrstitude to his benefactors, from
which unfortunately too many precedens have

dwell particularly on the wisdom OF the Allies

'Iic speech, however, W'tSh Nttr"CNeu lH'S
attention, from its apparent reference to South
America is the following:
"The difficulties which your Majesty canno
fail to encounter in the paciiication Of your ras
dominions, will only enhance the merit Of having
coaquered them. You will find the means in til,
wisdom Of your own det- rmina,ions, in the vir

which you are sure 10 inspire your allies; ane

and the clemency which causes them to be for

Most undoubtedly, it is difficult TO reconcile
Ibis allusion 10 future conquest with any othe
meaning than that OF reference 10 Ferdinand
