the Peninsula, freed from di,cord, will again
open TO your soldiers the road to their own
country, and put an end to the sacrifices which
are so burdensome &c your subjects, and 10 the
increase of debt which would press heavily
upon Spanish loyalty. May Spain, country

pendi'ures have exceeded the provisions Of the
Legislature, we shall search into the causes
thereof; and, anxious to second the benefceni
views Of your Majesty, we shall enter with you
into the ways and means of rigid and enlight-
ened economy.
The intervention Of your august son in mat
,ers Of military promotion affords TO the army
proof Of affection, so much The more glorious,
as an exception Of this order only belongs TO a
Prince occupying exalted place in the OPT
nion Of the people.
Ever attentive to the progress of commerce
and industry, your Majesty wishes TO favor
their Development by the appointment of a
new Ministry. You wish to examine more
CLOSELY Into tho wants Of sgric ultu re: their FIRST
want, Sire, is liberty. ssarily

commerce, the reaction of which extends 10 the
remotest interests.

not alter :ae necessary connection Of religion
wi the education Of youth

last will and testament Of king who proved

mony TO prevail in the minds Of men as well
in the laws.
The important questions that were pointed
out to your solci,ude will lie resolved by legal
proof, which alike excludes both oppression
and weakness. Some parts Of the public ad.
ministraton have excited violent resentments.

TO heal SO deepa wound, your majesty has, in
your foresight, anticipated the expression Of
our wishes, the committees which were forms
ed by your commands will hasten 10 prep"r re
the accomplishments Of the same, as we Aatter
ourselves.
