DESTRUCTION OP

THE INQUISITION IN SPAIN.

had been decreed by the Emperor Napa leon that the Inquisition and Monasteries should be suppressed but the decree, like some of the laws enacted in this country, was not yet executed. Months had passed away, but the prisons of the Inquisition were still unopened. One night about 10 or 11 o'clock, as Col. L. was walking the streets of Madrid, two armed men sprang upon him from an alley, and maTe a furious attack. He instauily drew his sword, put himself in a position of defence, and while struggling with them, saw at a distance the lights of the patrols—French soldiers mounted, who carried lanterns, and rode through the streets of the city at all hours of the night, to preserve order. He called to them in French, and, as they hastened to his assistance, the assailants took to (heir heels and escaped, not, however. before he saw by their dress that they belonged to th& guards of the Inquisition.

The Co!on went Immediately to Marshal Soult. then Governor of Madrid, and told liim what had taken placc, and reminded him of the decree to suppress this institution. Marshal Soult replied that he might go and destroy it. Coh L. told him that his Regiment (the 9th of the Polish Lancers) was not sufficient for such a service, but if he would give him an additional regiment—117th, he would undertake the work. The 117th Regiment was under the command of Col. DeLile, who is now, like Col. L., a minister of the Gospel, and pastor of an Evangelical church, in Marseilles, France. "The troops required were granted, and I proceeded (said Col. L.) to the Inquisition, which was situated about five miles from the city. It was surrounded by a wall of great strength, and defended by a company of soldiers. When we arrived at the walls, I addressed one of the sentinels, and summoned the holy fathers to surrender In the Imperial^ army, and open the gates of the Inquisition. The sentinel, who was standing on the wall, appeared to enter into conversation for a moment with some one within, at the close of which he presented his mus. ket and shot one of my men. This was the signal for attack, and I ordered my troops to fire upon those who nppcnretl upon the walls. "It was soon obvious that it was an unequal warfare. The walls of the Inquisition were covered with the soldiers of the holy office there was also a breast-work upon the wall, behind which they but partially exposed themselves as they discharged their muskets. Our troops were in the open plain, and exposed to a destructive fire. Wo had no ennnon, nor could we scale iho walla, and the gates successfully resisted all nttemps at forcing them. I could not retire and send for cnrujfi^?.1 ,i —*ttuAfwm io '(,1!..^-ialls without giving them time to lay a train to blow us up. 1 taw that it was necessary to change the mode of attack, and directed some trees to be cut down and trimmed, to be used as battering rams. Two of these were taken up by detachments of men, as numerous as could work to advantage, and brought to bear upon the walls with all the power which they could exert, while the troops kept up a fire to protect them from the fire poured upon them from the walls?. Presently the walls began to tremble, a breach was made, and the imperial troops rushed into the Inquisition. Here we met with an incident which nothing hut Jesuistical effrontery is equal to. The inquisitor-gen-eral, followed by the father confessors in their priestly robes, all came out of their rooms, ns we made our way into the interior ofthe Inquisition, and with long faces, and their arms crossed over their breasts, their fingers resting on their shoulders, as tho' they had been deaf to all the noise of the attack and defence, nnd had just learned what was going on, they addressed themselves in the Innguago of rebuke to their own soldiers, saying, Why do you fight ottr friends the French?" •'Their intention, no doubt, was taunnke us think that this defence was wholly unauthorized by them, hoping, they could make us believe that they were friendly they should have a belter opportunity, in tho confusion of tho moment, to escape Their artifice was too shallow, and did not succeed. I caused them to be placed under guard, and all tho soldiers yf the Inquisition to be secured as prisoners.— We then proceeded to. examine all the rooms of the stately edifice. We passed through room after room found all perfectly in order, richly furnUhed. with al^ nnd crucifixes, and wax candles in abundance, but could discover no evidences of iniquity being practiced there— nothing of those peculiar features which we expected.to find in an inquisition. We found splendid paintings, and a rich and extensive library. Here was beauty and

splendor, and the most perfect order

which my eyes lmvc ever rented The arch-1

In 1809, Colonel Lehraanowsky was attached to that pan of Napoleon's army which was stationed in Madrid. "While in this city," said Col. L., "Iused to speak freely »raong llw people about the pric.t. "^'reronsTS ^"i'nT our'de^c"r»and Jesmus. isnd of the Inquisition. It £„g

thus engaged, a soldier, who was striking with the butt of his musket, struck a spring, and the marble slab flew up. Then the faces of the inquisitors grew pale as Belshazzar, when the hand writing appeared on the wall they trembled all over. Beneath the marble slab, now partly up, there was a stair-case. I stepped to the altar, and took from the candlestick one of the candles, four feet in length, which was burning, that I might explore the room below. As I was doing this, I was arrested by one of the inquisitors, who laid his hand gently on my arm, and with a verv demure and sanctimonious look, saiu, •My son, you must not take those lights with your bloody hands, they are holy.' •Well,' I said,

4I

wi'.l take a holy thing to

shed light on Iniquity I will bear the responsibility I took the candle, and proceeded down the staircase. As we reached the foot of the stairs we entered a large square room, which was called the Hall of Judgment. In the centre of it was a huge block, and a chain fastened to it. On this they had been accustomed to place the accused, chained to his seat. On one side of the room was an elevated seat.

This the

called the Throne of Judgment Inquisitor-General occupied, and on either side were seats less elevated, for the priestly fathers, while engaged in the solemn

riylit, and obtained access to small cells, extending the entire length of the edifice and here such sights were presented as we hope never to see again. "These cells were places of solitary confinement, where the wretched objects of inquisitorial hate were confined year after year, till death released them from their sufferings, and there their bodies were suffered to remain until they were entirely decayed, and the rooms had become fit for others to occupy. To prevent this being offensive to those who occupied the inquisition, there were flues or tubes extending to the open air. sufficiently capacious to carry off the odor. In these cells we found the remains of those who had paid the debt of nature some of them had been dead, apparently, but a short time, while of others nothing remained but the bones, still chained to the floor of their dungeon. "In other cells, we found living sufferera of both sexes, and of every age, from three score years nnd ten down to fourteen or fifteen years, all naked as when born into the world, and all in chains flu re were old men and aged women, who had been shut up for many years. Here, too, were tho middle aged, and the yoti

jr^Sfiw«1tjrsimmediately went to work to release these captives from their chains, and took from their knapsacks their overcoats aud other clothing, which they gave them to cover their nakedness. They were exceedingly anxious to bring them out to the light of day: but being aware of the danger, 1 had food given them, and then brought them gradually to the light, as they were able to bear it.

We then proceeded to explore another room on the left. Here we found the instruments of torture, of every kind which the ingenuity of men or devils could invent.'' Col. L. describes four of these horrid instrument: "The first was a machine by which the victim was secured, nnd then, beginning with the lingers,every joint in the hands, arms, and body, was broken, or drawn, one after another, until the sufferer died. The second was a box, in which the head and neck of the accused was so closely screwed that he he could not move in sny way. Over the box was a vessel, from which one drop of water a second fell upou the head of the victim, every successive drop falling precisely upon the same place, which suspended the circulation in a few moments, and put the snflerer to the most excrutiating agony.— the third was an infernal macJwne, laid horizontally, to which the victim was bound this instrument was then placed between two beams, in which there weie scores of knives, so fixed that, by turning the machine with a crank, the flesh cf the sufferer was torn from his limbs in small pieces. The fourth surpassed the others in fiendish ingenuity. Its exterior was a beautiful woman, or lar*e

circle was drawn. lhu ictim who p.isscd

over this, fatal mark touched a sjjrmg which caused the diabolical engine to opon, its arms clasped him and a .thousand knivtws cut him into as many pieces, in their deadly cmbnice."

All withdrew to a distance, and in a few moments the assembled multitude beheld a most joyful sight. The walls and turrets ofthe massive structure rose majestically toward the heavens, impelled by the tremendous explosion, and then fell back to earth a heap of ruins!
