serted by their cn_emies~: they merely wished an
end put to all unnecessaryplaces, pensions, and
siuecui-es, and a proper share in the legislature
of their country. He adveited to the ‘ inlium-.m
butcliery’ at Manchester; and he, and all-the oth-
er orators, were partictilaily vehement and de-
clrmiatory upon this iiioui'nful and ominous sub-
ject. ‘ Will it be believedliy posterity,’ said one
of the speakers, ‘ that a prageful assembly of free

nounces the safe returri of l_\‘lessrs. Livingston";
and Sadlcr, from their zcrial excursion, and gives"
the followiiig account of their perilous voyage :
This is the longest aerial voyage ever made" in.-
Great»Britain. , The Balloon ascended from Liv-—
erpool at a quarter past two, and aligbted at five
minutes past five, at the distance of about amile‘
a_nd a half from the town of‘Stocltton. In a space’
traversed a distance of nearly 1 10 miles in a lineal
direction, and if the indulations and abet'i*ations of
le,ast”l7'O miles. _ In the cotirse of this voyage,
they traversed some of the—.fiuest parts of the
counties of York and Durham, the views of which
both gentlemen .de_scribe as sublime and enchant-
ing beyond description. At a height of nearly
two miles from the earth, they took their refresh-
ment, and dra‘iik the li'ealth.ofth'eir sovereign,
and prosperity to the town‘ and trade of Liverpool,
in that awful sym/zosz'um. T hey frequ_ently,on ap-
proacliing a town or tillage, ‘descended so low as
to be able to converse with tliepeople, by whom
they were often imited to make acall, and take’
some refreshment ; but such morningvisits being
r'ather inconvenient, they were obliged to decline
the honor. , The uoblewaving line made by the
balloon in these,descendii_igs and ascendings,must
have been the finest sights which occurred in the
whole eitliihition, and accordingly they eiicited
the highest raptiire in the ruralspectators. They
didnot: suffer _much from cold ; the mercury in

which is now ascertained. '

over the Fever Hospital, Brownlow-hill, Sac. Mr.
Livingston was observed standing on the outer

astonishment and some terror : like many other

SUCCESS OF tints PATRIOTS.‘
The editor of the Baltimore Patriot has been
favored -with the following letter fitom a very in-
telligeut souifce, dated, _
’ ' TRINIDAD, Oct. 1, 1819.
j I have now the happiness to inclosc to you the
llulletins No.;.‘3, 4 and 5,‘ from the army of’ (Jen.
Bolivar, in Netv-Grenada, by-iwhicli you will find
that he l1?.S‘b,G£tlCll and taketi’pi'isoners the whole
of the Spanish forcesopposed to’ him in_ these im-
portant -Prosinces, by which the emancipation of
the newgwoi‘-ld is insured beyond a doubt. The
General says he has fotmd upwardi of one _mil-
lieu of »mon¢;y in the‘ mint, and glint" t-he‘propet-tyt
of government '-and of individuals are‘ enormous.‘
Some accounts state the tre'asure at $3,000,000. .
,fl'h_e stores are filledwith every requisite to e-
.quip a“ large army, and, no doubt, Bo‘livar_will
quicken his march upon Venezuela after putting
things in order in the provinces. The’ plan ‘for
the ensuing campaign is to unite all the troops-
and make a dash upon Moiillo, who, it is said,‘i's
in Venezuela, bewildered. lt is computed, that‘
the Pat: iotfoi'ces will exceed 'i2,000 _men,exclu-
sivc of any troops"th,at Bolivar may bring down
withhim. Eng-lish’s British legion are in our
neighborhood, at _Maturin, and by letters of the
16th inst. from Margaretta, 1 learn that nearly
1000 men of Dove-reaux’s expedition had arrived
there, but in consequence of Brion having allow-
ed his squadron to disperse to crtiiie, the Span-
ish fleet had made their appearance and were ac-
tually blockading the Island, in order to intercept
the troops expected from Irelan‘d.-‘—-Tlie Admiral
sent me a fiechera to" advise me of this circum-
stance, and I immediately sent a fast sailing ves-
sel to cruise between this and 'I‘obago,to suppress
all vessels coming that way and to order them in-
to this Gulph, to join the British troops‘ in Matu-
rin——an'd I trust we shall be in time to save ma-
ny of them from falling intothe hands of the
. Spaniards. , .
A change has lately taken place the admin-
istration, &c. in Angostura. Arismendi has been
elected vice president ;,lV_'Iai-ino, to the command
of the army in Cumana, and Jolly to .th_e active
conducting of the marine op'era'tioiis.--‘-Letters
speak highly of the actitity _of Arismendi, and
the great improvements already made in the state
of,afl'-airs" in Guyana. Zea, though out of ofiice,
lends [him a hand in the _despa:ch'o‘f the office.

Dark Day.——-A Newbtiryport paper states, that
the weather was so extremely thick with dense '
clouds,.and so dark in the middle of the day, on
the 2d inst. that lighted candles’ were necessary
in many rooms; A torrent of rain, colored as
with some dingy substance, -attended with severe
thunder and lightning, "ensued. The lightning
struck in several places; at Seabrook, a cow was
killed, and a stack of hayset on fire and consum . . ,
mcd,’and in this town, one of the poplar trees I
which adorn our streets was demolished. _
A Norfollc paper, of Nov. 8th, _says—‘ In con-
sequence of the fires some v-‘lie-re, (itis said in
the»Dismal Swamp) our atmosphereis so be:
cl_ouded, and has been so for several days, that no.
object at anyconsiderable distance can be discei-n--
ed. It is so intgnsely thick,,that in‘ walkiiig the’ -
streets, it is truly offensive to the eyes.-”
-\Ve understand that the Great Swamp, about '
ten miles west of Springlield,.=New-.lct'sey, which
caught-fire about four weeks since, is still burn-t
ing, and that about 3000 acres of timber have
been destro_ved. The inhabitants who reside near
the swamp, suffer very much from the smoke. - -r
