CLEMENCIA

La algarada de Y auco, existi6 Dios gra-
cias, sin consecuencias, rebeli6ny paclhcaclon
han sido tan rapidas, que ell palsno ha tenldo
tempo de inmutarse.
Hay ouen habla dc fusilamientos, hay
ouien sabe de memoria ell Codigo de justlcla
militar.
Pero 70 todos los que gritan ijustcia! la
amaron en- todo tempo.
Para que la justicla lmponga Ell s1lenclo
respetuoso ha de ser imparcial.
Ell que dice justicia, y no por mi casa, no
sera creido.
Ell 81 cuatro nfelices delinqueron para
ellos Sc pide toda la severidad de la ley; y sin
embargo, el 81 es al 81 como un hijo su pa
Dire.
ST tuviGramos derecho hacer codigos de
iusticia para nuestro uso, acusarfamos de pa
rricidio a muchos que grltan: ituslladles.
Ell pats olvido ell 81; tenemos la esperanza
de que Espa1ia humana generosa olVldara ell
A un olvido otro olvido: esta es la com
pensacion.
Meditad los que debeis meditar antes de
dar conseio. Pensad que la sangre que Sc de-
rrama es sangre vuestra; es sangre de Espana,
V que la sangre de unos pocos no redlme la
culpa de muchos.
ST materialmente la rebellion es obra de
una docena de exaltados, servdo esta vez por
;ay! moralmente de cuantos no es obra!
iQuien sembro Ell disgusto? sQuien pre-
tendfa cerrar la puerta toda esperanza? 81
Espana es generosa, 5como puede serlo sin Gle
mencia? NADIA debe decirse respecto de Espa-
7ia sin que Sc cumpla ST Espaha es fuerte
;por que no magnanima? Los debiles desco-
nocen la magnanimidad, que es cualidad de los
fuertes.
La revoluci6n espanola perdon6 ell 68 a
los de Lares, iporqu6 la restauraci6n no ha de
poder perdonar, ST asf 10 estima prudente los
desgraciados de Yauco?
;Lo que hizo Pavfa, no puede repetirlo
Marin?
Sea de clio 10 que fuere; por justa que sea
la sentencia, por la primera sangre derramada
llevaran luto ell pats ell noble pueblo espanol.
Un acto de clemencia ell SO, mantuvo 6el
este pats, durante ell perfodo mas difcil an
gustioso para la madre patria, ha asegurado
Ia paz por treinta amos.
Un segundo acto de clemencia quizas man
tenga la paz para slempre
La monarqufa actual representada por una
iustre mujer, no sera menos generosa que Ia
revouci6n del IS representada por un ilustre
guerrero.
