The prisoners on. each side are massacred .witbott Mercy. Tire and sword have razed whole ProvinCes. Cities, once populous, are totally anni hilated, and more than two hundred thousand per sons have already perished in this dreadful contest. Should the efforts of the Patiiots be. crushed, what can save from destruction this vast Continent ? That Revolution which, in 1810, was confined within she limits of a few Provinces, has now become general. Its true principles are developed, and the justice of its cause universally felt and acknowledged. The ob stinate determination of the Spanish Government not to yield to any pacific terms, strengthened the resolo tioa of the Patriots to resist g and what the first Re. gency of ' . Z.adis might with ease have effected, the Cortes found impossible. It was supposed that the arrival of FaiumwanD VII. would have put an end to bloodshed and misery ; but this young king, in. stead of adopting gentle measures, and allowing Peace to hail his opening reign, coarrearatled submis sion from the Americans, and then sent troops to en force that submission by spreading murder and de struction all around them. How this contest will end cannot yet be foreseen ; the different Powers of Europe are mere neutral spectators; and the Ameri cans have to resist, unaided, against an old establish ed Government, that has at its command all the re sources of despotism. Whether Holland, Switzer- I land, or the United States of America would have succeeded in establishing their independence without foreign aid is uncertain. Yet it is to be hoped that the South American efforts for liberty will avail, since the spirit of the Patriots has not hitherto been damped, either by the arrival of the KING in Spain, the loss of Carthagena, the death of MoRILLo, or the victory of PRZURLA in Peru. The war will pro bably be long, but success may eventually rest with those who are only straggling for that liberty so justly dear to man. Let us take a •iew of the present state of Spanish America. We must begin by considering the Spanish Ame rican Continent as divided into three pans.-Ist. That bounded by the United States of America, and the Isthmus of Panama. 2d. The country between the Gulf of Darien and Quito. Sd. The country ex• tending from Cuenca to Cape Horn. Nearly all the Provinces north of the City of . Mexico are in the power of the Patriots, The seat of the Government is at Su'tepee. There is a Con., pen composed of the Deputies from the Provinces, and an Executive Power, which is vested in three I persons. This Congress has published a Constitu tion,. the basis of which is.lst. The right of the People to have Representatives; 2dly. The Liberty,.ol Co., science and of the Preu ; Sdly. The Equality of in the eye of the Law. This Congress holds inter. course with North America, and Don HAIRIUMAS is its Deputy to the United States' The Port of Bo quilla of Piedra, which the Patriots have fortified, is the channel of communication, with North„Apierice.; and from this Port they receive all kinds of ammuni tion of war. The armed force of the itidependatlis exceeds 30,000 men, which divided into small squa. thous, succeeds at present in harassing, at least, the Royal army. The communication between Vera Cruz and Mexico has been iatermited since last De. eember, when the Convoy passed,. which had been stopped in its passage for nearly eight months, al though guarded by 2,000 men. After the defeat of General Monaco., the Inde. pendants took possession of the small lawn of St. Lazar, in Mexico, but from thence , they were loon repulsed. The plan of the campaign which they adopted was that of Guerillas, who never came. to a unaided battle. The Royalists ace in possession of the Sgt th of Mexico, and principally of AO chief towns in the South. Their exact strength is not known, but they •reoeived last yeas' frosts the Peninsulas reinforcement of dearly 3,000 troops of the line. . . • *.' ..From the Province:of. Choco, in the Gulf of Da til* as far as Quito, the country is in a complete state of iniurrection ; and this Republic is .likewiso composed of a Congress and of 'an E xecutive Power, which resides at Santa Fe de Bogota, and is formed on alsmii.similar to that of the Congress of Mexico. Zir `erased force.is divided into two great bodies, • , i eve ra d smaller ones i the *bole may consist of, !ONO men. , .

Peru is in the power of the Spaniards, except rat provinces of Upprr Peru, which are in a sta te of insurrection. But we have no certain intelligeett of what is passing, because the Royalists co m a whatever may happen unfavourable to chi, cam . and the Pawiots are cot off from all cornmeal:at% • with the provinces of Rio cie la Plata. Paraguay is independent; and not being at pain t opposed by any inimical power, the Government wholly occupied in preparing for defence in can o f an attack. Chili is possessed by the Royalists. The eastern part of the provinces of la Plats is as. der the dominion of Aarums, who has an only shaken off the yoke of the Spanish Government, b ut has likewise separated himself from that of Buenos Ayres. The provinces of la Plata west of the river as fa as Potosi, are subject to the President, or head (Atha Buenas Ayres Government. The army of Buenos Ayres is divided into three bodies; one, commanded by General Sr. Means, is opposed by the Royalists in Chili; another divi. sion, commanded by Rowno, was defeated at Sipe. Sipe, the gist of last December, but expected to re. ceive re-inforcements in January to enable them ts oppose the progress of General PUMA ; and the third is at Buenns Ayres. The Portuguese are encamped at Rio Grande, and it is feared that Mamas will be attacked by them, if this part of the country has been ceded by the Spa. nish Government to the Portuguese, as is at present supposed. v. c. On the Promenade of Moscow, on Palm Sunday, above 800 equipages were counted. We stated in Monday's Paper, that the Magi.. trates of Norwich held a meeting on Friday, for the purpose of devising means to relieve the distress pro duced by the sudden stop put to the circulation of the old silver coin in that city. In the course of Friday afternoon, upwards of £2,000 worth of Bank token, were, by the direction of the Magistrates, exchanged for the old silver, the amount to each poi. family being limited to 9s. This plan gave general satis faction, and the great evil apprehended was removed with as little inconvenience as possible. The disposition to riot which lately displayed it self among the pitmen belonging to the different collieries upon the Wear has entirely subsided, tran quillity is now perfectly restored, and nearly the whole of the misguided men have returned to thee work. Forty.eight of the most riotous have beta committed to the Gaol, the New Prison, and Hass of Correction, at Newcastle.upon•Tyne. A robbery of 'considerable magnitude has . k.itis place in the course of the week, but the principals concerned in it hare nat yet been discovered. It ap. pears that a Nobleman in the country having aces. mon to remit to town 41000, he enclosed the same in two or more franks. In the.usual course of the post, the letters containing the notes were to pass through the Inland Office. After a sufficient time had elapsed for their arrival, it was found they bad not reached their destination, and a strict investigation was set on foot. The whole of the clerks on duty were made to undergo a minute search : the keys found upon them were taken away, and their desks and drawers exami ned, but without any thing appearing to attach to them the smallest suspicion. All the persons connec ted with the Inland Office have stood their ground. and have appeared ready to answer any interrogate. ries put to them ; from whence it is interred that the robbery may not have occurred in the Post Office Department. The Marquis of SALISBUItIf. the new Postmaster General, attended an investigation at the Post Office yesterday on the subject, but without bringing to light any facts which were likely to lead tithe discovery - of the villains. At Beverley Races, on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday last, the Maiden Plate of ,C5O was svoi by Mr. F. Watrs's ch. c. Gold Leonard ; the Mean. Bert Plate by Mr. Bitowa's ch. c.
