-sion of blood and general disorder were mi"-
pectcd to occur ere long,unless Bolt!-‘ill’ slt0UlIl‘
soon arrive in the Republic.

 

G EN. PAEZ.-—Tlie editor ofthe Balt.Ga-
zone has received advices from Uilflllfli-.'~e““
dawn to the 6th inst. His correspondent says:

“ The general opinion is, that Geri. Puez
will be coridenrired to dcatlr,.'iud, as -Presitlertt
Bolivar is expected in two or three weeks, I
make no dotibt tranquility in Vetrcztiela will
be restored. \'r'e are all quiet in this depart-
merit.”

A proclamation issued by General I3Prtml-
iioz, commander in chief of the department
of Orinoco, had just been issued. The Pro-
elarriation conderiiirs, in the strongest terms,
the conduct of Pan. and the iriurriciptrlities of
Valencia and Caraccas. It proceeds thus :

“ These acts reveal that VvriI‘zlN3l'<t I135
:;P.I)ill’I~1l6tl froui the corrstitntion and the law.
by acknowledging the arrtlrority ofa rriilitaiy
chief, and setting at defiance her civil tria-
grsrrate. «

“ A total overthrow of all the establislted
arrthorities, and prrblic furictious, is the result
of this extraoiitinary and irregular coridiict,
8. the disorder seems to have been introdutzcd
and to be maintained by military force. The

whole event wears the appearance of an at
tempt to violate the Laws and destroy the
coustitrrtiori by force ofarnis. In this posture
of aftliirs, and until I am convinced that Vent
.€ZlIt’l2| has returned to right order and sub
jecriou to the laws, it is my dui_v to prepare
to defend, ifueccssary, the sacred code of our
‘rights, and arrest every attempt to disturb the
peace which Oronoco now enjoys.

“ Your duty is to aid me in displaying yotrt‘
tried fidelity, and your firm adherence to
Liberty, and to thatorder trpon which alone
liberty._can be founded. The whole republic
will sustain your efi'orts and protect your
patriotism.

“ Twelve thousand valiant soldiers are
marching upon Veiie:-zuela, by cornuraiitl of
-the Liberator President. They are returrirn;_z
from Peru, and part oftliern have arrived at,
Painarrra. He hasjust completed the glorious
work ofPertivian liberty and order: St. for-
tune, wlrich led him thither uill irow bring
-lriin to the support of_ his virtuous fellow cit-
izens and the lawsofhis own country.”

 

PENSACOT.A.—Extraci ofa letter fruui
rm Officer‘ of the U. States Navy, to his
friend in Norfolk, dated I8tli June.

“It may not be uninteresting to you to
-know what kind ofa corinrry has been select-
ed as ‘it Naval Depot in the IV:-stern waters.
"1‘Iie Navy Yard, as they have coniincn_ced it,
‘its on Tartar Point, aborit two miles frorri the
sea, and one rrniirrerrupted mass offrnr-. white
sand forthirty miles siii-rounding ; tr0tr\illt-
.standing wliich_,souie rriucli better Indian corn
is prndrrced than can be found in yours or the
adjacent country. The indolence ofthe for-
mer proprietors caused them to neglect the
cultivation ofthe soil, and this kind of vege-
tation is found in the gardens which have rroi
been subjected to manure. The Sugar Cane
and Sea Island Cottons have also been culti-
*vated with considerable success. The Bay is
a spacious one, and calculated to contain iht-.'
whole fleet ofthe United States, both Naval
and commercial, being in extent nearly thirty
miles, in a direct line, and perfectly SIIPIIPIG-l
from the sea by the island of Santa Rosa,
which interlocks with the main land about
the Barancas. When Commodore Warriiig-
ton arriv'ed here he did not find any difiici-.lty
in getting the Constellation in, liririszing over
the bar 22 1-2 feet at common high tide.-
IlVhen the Grainpus, Lt. Com. Cassin, caiire
.in, she brought 94 feet by a rough cast ofthe
Toad from the channels. The town is in ap-
pearance very iiitrcli like I’ortsrnouth,eitcepr
not so nirich improved, and contains about
3200 souls.”
Jlfr. Senator Be'nlon.—T.lie Cincinnati Gir-
nette relates a ludicrous adventure which be-
tel Mr. Benton on his journey through Ohio
t‘o Missouri. Having quit his carriage to re-
liere his fatigue by a turn on horseback, he
chanced to rrieet the public stage :-—Colouel
Benton requested the driver to turn aside and
give his own carriage the road; the driver re-
fused, upon which the senator coriimericed an
attack with his riding whip on the stage lror-
ses, to compel by force the obedience which
had been refused to solicitation. The driver
‘not to be outdone in conrtesy,repaid the corri-

' pliineiit upon the Colonel’s owir person. En-

raged at his insoleiice, Col. Benton rode back
‘and borrowed his coacbtnan’s whip, and tr di-
verting skirmish ensued bcrwcen him and the
‘driver, manifestly to thedisadvaritage of the
‘Missourian. Finding the contest irnequal the
Colonel called in the aidofhis squire or coacli-
‘man, (in violation ofthe niaxims ofchivalry,
as will appear by consulting Atnerclis de Gaul,
or Don~Quixote ;) encouraged and supported
by this auxiliary, the battle was renewed with
fresh fury. The fray having raged for some
‘time the coacliman retreated and left the Col.
to frglrt out the battle himself. The superior
dexterity of the driver, when no longer have
ing to contend with odds, jquickly prevailed ;
‘the Colonel was routed a_nd left the field in
quiet. possession of his stubborn Republican
natagonrst.

John .ddam.s’ prophecy at 20 years o_/‘age.
The following is an extract of a letter writ-
ten by JOHN ADAMS, dated at Worcester,
Iilass. Oct. 191, I755. '
“ Soon after the reformation. a few people
came over into this new world, for conscience
sake. Perhaps this apparently trivial incident
may transfertlie great seat of Empire into
America. It looks likely to me ; for it WCCBII’
"remove the turbulent Gallicks,our pt>.ople,:ic-
corditrg to the exactest couiputatioirs, Will in
another century, becoiire tiiore l'1lllt1cIOtlsll):1n
England itself. Should this be the case,sirrce
we have, I may say, all the naval stores ofthe
nation in our hands, it will be easy to obtain
the mastery of the seas; and then the united
force ofall Europe will not be able to subdue
us. The only way to keep us from setting up
for ourselves, is to disuiiite us.” “ Be not
surprised that I'ani turned politician. ‘This
whole town is immersed in politics. The irr-
terests of nations, and all t|ie_ (lira of war,
make the subject ofevery conversation. I sit
and hear, and after having been led through a
maze ofsage observatiorrs,I sometimes retire,
and laying llrings together, form some reflec-
tions pleasing to myself. The produce ofoue

'—".~~uesoAY,. AUGUST i, 1826.

The late defection of Gen. Paez in South
America appears to threaten mriclr rirore seri-
orrs aird extensive evils to the cause of inde-
pendeuce in that ‘qrrarter than was at first ap
prelrcuded. All our late accoriirts from the
scene cfhis operations unite in deeply repro-
hating the course he has adopted, and riot-
witlistandirig all his fair promises of devotion
to his conutry’s uelfare,seein to consider liirii
a traitor at lreart. It is, indeed, a tnost unfor-
tunate circumstance, that just as this brave
people lied, aI'ter _s3 many years of sufferirrg,
succeeded in driving their tippressors fmrii the
laud,tlrat tlrey should be plunged into difficul-
tics and disputes among tbetnselvgs, which
must do even more than an open war to retard
their progress in that career of happiness and
renown,wlrich they were so arrspiciously coin-
nierrciug. The only hope for preserving the
peace of the country is in the decision which
Bolivar rriakes, and with which he acts, in re-
gard to this affair. But with all his decision
he may be urrableto stop lltt.‘ effusion of blood.
The preceding column will give some partic-
ulars with regard to the present situation of
this unpleasant, and still more unfortunate,
business.

./llonied I7islilufi'urrs.~—A second injuiiction
has been istttrtl by Judge F.dwards,agaiiisr the
'1‘radesiiiair’s I}ank,r'rquirurg the surrctrtler of
all the property itito the hands ofStt=plren Al-
len and Peter Stagg, who have been named
as Trustees for that prrrposc. This irrjutictiou
was served on Saturday, Qfitl ult. but we un-
derstand that the gentlemen in possession
lrarie declined complying with it, under the
advice of counsel. What will be the result
we cannot deterrniire. One carrse of the ap-
plication for the original injunction, is said to
have been a discovery that the new board of
directors hadstipulatetl to loan the sum of
$300,000 upon the securities of a certain irr-
stirution which has since failed.

1;’. S. Since writingtlie foregoing, we have
been iirformeu that the directors have yielded
and rather than walk up to the bit‘ of the
court for a contempt, have surrende-ed to the
'I‘rustees,wlio were placed in possession of the
Bank at 10 o’clock this morning, and uiuclr
excireiirerrt prevail.—S})eclator tfflflh.

We learn that it has just been ascertained
that one ofour IirsurairccCompaiiies has sutrk
30 per cent. of its capital, by having loaned
money upon the Life and Fire bonds. The
directors are now in sessioir,2~z. we lrope,oir irr-
vestigating the affairs of the institutiornthirrgs
will not look as bad asit is apprehended.-fl).

A writer in the New York Statesman says,
and doubtless saystruly,that the present ex-
citemcnt which exists in that city relative to
riioiiied concerns, “ was occasioned by riren
wlro have been playing a dcsperzrte game in
Baittlsiiritl fictitious paper; making as the
uviriitling terrii is, “ lrcatry operations” out of
nothing, and slraving eacu other, tiirtil they
were corirpelled to raise the curtain. and show
themselves to the public.” This reminds us
of an old gentleman ' in New England who
hnnsted that l.e had 2-ofthe cutest. boys in the
world at rnaking spectrltrtioirs. “ \Vhy,”said
he, " I’ll [try you a_m'3lm'cen that if they be
locked up in a roorri togetlier, where they can"
see iro other person to trade with, they will
make 5 dollars it piece by S'll)(l}l])27I_.g‘ clothes
with each otlrer.”———./.lll2. Dal. ./Ida.

.N'ewI'{opc Batik —'~'. is stated rnrheDoyles-
town Dcrrrocrat of T esrlay, that on S.rlurday
last the alarm at tht officc of the New Hope
Bank was very great, and the doors were al
rernately shut and opened. Several times
rlrronglr the day,tlre larger (lcrriarrds r‘-"ere re-
fused and the smaller ones were p.iid rrritil two
o’clock, when it being Saturday aftcrnoorr,
tlreir doors was shirt, and those outside were
told that “they might do their worst.” The
whole sum derrraridetl within two days, did
not exceed five or six liirirdred dollars.

Twenty '1'/i.ou.suncl Dollar Pri'z.r2.—--Tliis
splctldltl capital prize was sold by Mr. Curri-
iiring, (successor to the Allens,) in shares.w—
The half was sold to two iiitlustrinus mechan-
ics, narried Morris and Seguine,eaclr of wlroui
bad a three dollar note of the 'I‘radesriian’s
bank, and when the batik was slrrrt iip,agreed
to stock their money and invest it in tickets,
as the lottery vcnders alone would receive the
paper of that bank. One quarter ofthe tick-
et was owned by two young gcnrleiiien, one
of whom drew a quarter of the 100,000 dollar
prize last year. One eighth was owned by a
young gentleman, and the remaining eighth
by two servants, who have received the cash.
