THE NATIONAL REGISTER. . -Fr one of the most eloquent Members in the Cortes, has urged the necessity of resisting FERDINAND himself, should he re-enter his kingdom at the head of an army formed by France, and composed of Spanish prisoners or - parti7ans of the gallic Em peror. This mode, which appears the most efficient to guard against the snares of the enemy, is also attended with great difficulties and dangers, the extent and nature of which we will endeavour to unfold. When the basest treachery had put France in the strong places in Spain, blind to the perils which tered wide the seeds of discontent. Her numerous agents would have poisoned the minds of the peo ple, and, armed with the eloquence of gold, woulLl have brought FFRDINAND'S Government and abili ties into disrepute. They would have represented his forced connection with France as a proof of the beriefits which a closer union of the two nations would, even in his estimation, have produced, and silently gaining ground, would have at last com pletely alienated every Spanish heart from the Sovereign, in whose cause the whole Peninsula has risen in arms.. Then should he be in duced a second time to resign his crown, and appoint NAPO/A:ON his successor, the experience of his weakness, and the consciousness of his long subserviency to France, would not only check a second burst of loyal enthusiasm, but through the force of habit, would render slavery itself less degrading in the eyes of the nation, and weaken the arm of patriotism. Time, besides, would have but faintly repaired the ravages of war ; and would the husbandman whose fields resume their fertility; the shepherd whose flocks once in,•te crowd the valleys, the artisan whose in dustry' revives, or the father around whom a new family has sprung, expose a second time the re:ruited sources of their wealth, or the dearest pledge,` of their affection to the 'desola ting rage of I,va_? ? Exhausted by the energy and duration of their first effort, as well as by the blood whit ,k they have shed and the losses which they have enuNred, they would shrink from a renewal of the contest for a Monarch weigh ed, but found wanting An the vale of political le consequences l)ex perience. Such woOld be the prob. 't of the restoration of FERDINAND the S eventh to the thrope of Spain, if effected by BUONAI NI : RTE. The skill of the latter might elude the pro ,`'p ions of the decree proposed in the Cortes, whilst the in'be cility of the former would lead him anew into in'4e pendence or captivity. In order to remove the possibility of such evils, threatened him, or too confident in a tyrant's honour, had crossed the Pyrenees and become a captive, a sudden burst of indignation shook the Peninsula. Armies sprung on every side. Every mountain became a fort ; an am bush was laid in every valley, and in the name of FERDINAND VII. the signal for war was given. The liberation of their enslaved Monarch was the universally avowed object for which they fought. To avenge his wrongs,' they raised the dagger on every officer or straggler &Om the lawless invader's army, until they had collected sufficient numbers to cope with them on the field. At the hour of battle, the name of FERDINAND VII. awakened their ancient energy. Defeated, they pronounced it and rushed again on the foe. The various Juntas which arose in every province, proclaimed FER DINAND their Sovereign, and called on the people to rise in his sacred cause. Ambassadors were sent to foreign powers, and whilst Great Britain poured her hosts and conquered on the Lusitanian shores, Austria armed in favour of an oppressed Sovereign. His detention and attempted liberation were, in the opinion of the world, the sole causes of the Spanish war. Now should BUONAPARTE, as it is strongly reported, relinquish the hope of con queuing Spain, and restore to the outraged FER DINAND the Crown which his ancestors wore, how could the nation oppose his return without supply ing our common enemy with grounds for misrepre sentation, which might for ever deprive Spain of the assistance of other Powers. Would he not say, and might it not be believed on the Continem, that, as he has frequently asserted, the war has been pro duced either by the restlessness of the people, or the influence of our gold ; since, when the easy at tainment of the object for which so many lives have been lost is proposed, it is indignantly rejected, and FERDINAND With. the idol for which they bled, as long as he remained a captive, instead of Meeting with their support at his return, is declared their most bitter enemy, and his adherents traitors, to 440 m no quarter ought to be shown.
