Saturday last, whilst hunting with the Hampshire the Duke of WELLINGTON was thrown from hire, in the act of taking a fence, but, happily, no injury whatever from the fall.

Advices have been received from Barbadoes, to the ult.—We regret to have to state, that though u island escaped the ravages of the hurricane of 21st and 22d of September, it was visited by tier, on the 13th of Octouer, from which day, till afternoon of the Friday following, the elements :nued in dreadful commotion. At Bridgetown train fell in torrents, and, from its immense guan i, the gully became so impetuous, that it forced way into the Green, and thence through Broad +tett, the houses of which were inundated, and much Melly injured. The new bridge, which had been very recently erected, .at an enormous expense, was tallied away. Many stores were totally destroyed, nd the houses of Captain MiaIRT and Mr. W. B1:111INAII, on the sea side, were carried a wa y , with t!'e persons who inhabited them, viz. a Mr. Joni* loess. his wife, and child ; and Mrs. BENSKIN and ter child. The body of Mr. YOUNG was a ft erw ards `and. The injury sustained among the shipping, the plantations was considerable also. It was reported at Barbadoes, on the 12th, that from the ffeas of the hurricane of the 21st of September, at 1!. Bartholomew's, two hundred persons had lost lives. We should hope, however, that th i s r•zfement is greatly EXaggerat ed. A letter from that', -L.d speaks of only twenty-one persons having lost f *? lives. In the same hurricane all the vessels at 11 Rico were driven on shore, several houses were down, and many of the inhabitants perished. s : e huriicane extended as far as Antigua, but is '.l . d to have done little damage to the stripping, or' ti shore,—From Tortola, the accounts are dreadful. !- letter, dated the 18th October, says:—" 1 have rlt six particular friends, killed by the fall of their ':vises; indeed, by the description of the storm, as Bien me by one of the unfortunate inhabitant s, "'t"+o property is entirely destroye d , the violenc e . of 4e hnmcane exceeded every thing ever heard of in !At \‘est Indies.

VENEZUELA AND NEW GRANADA: • '1 OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLE OF BO JACA, THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ROYAL ARMY, AND THE CAPTURE OF THE CAPITAL,. SANTA FE. . FOURTH BULLETIN OF TIIE LIBERATING ARMY 01 NEW GRANADA. Yesterday, at day-light, our advanced corps giVing notice that he enemy was in march by the road of Samaca, the army was . tit under arms; and as soon as it was ascertained that he in ended passing the bridge of Bojaca, In order to open direct :ommunication, and be in contact with the capital, we marched ly the high road to prevent him, or force him to give battle. At two in the afternoon, the enemy's first division reached the bridge, where he saw only out advance of Cavalry. Not then able to ascertain our force, and believing those opposed to hint .vere nothing more than a reconnoitring party, be attacked them vith his Cazadores to clear the way whilst the main body fol owed up. Our divisions quickened their march, and to the rem surprise of the enemy, the whole of our infantry shelved ,hemselves in a column on a height commanding his. position. The enemy's van had ascended part of the road, following our ..dvance, and the remainder of his army was below, about a quar :cr of a league from the bridge, and &hewed a force of 5,000 men. Our Battalion of Cazadures of the van sent out a company •.f skirmishers, and with the remainder in column attacked the enemy's Cazadures, and drove them back precipitately to a wall, from whence they were also dislodged ; they then passed the bridge, and took up a position on the other side, and in the meanwhile Mir Infantry came down, and the Cavalry marched .icing the road. The enemy made a movement by his right, which was op posed by the Rifles, and the British Company. The Battalions, first of Barcelona and Paez's Bravos, with the Squadron of the Cavalry of the Upper Plain, marched by the centre. The Bat. :alien of the Line of New Granada, and the Guides of the rear, joined the Battalion of Cazadores, and formed the left. The columns of Tunja and Sozorro remained in reserve. The action began at the same instant all along she line, Gene ral Anzoategui directed the operations of the centre and right; he ordered a Battalion to be attacked which the enemy had sent out as skirmishers in a glen, and forced it to retire on the main body, which formed in column on a height, with three pieces of artillery iti the centre, and two corps of Cadalry in the flapks, waited the attack. ' Our troops of the centre, disregarding the fire of some corps of the enemy posted on their left flank, attacked the main body, The enemy gave a dreadfpl fire, but our troops, with the most daring movements, executed with the strictest discipline, sur rounded all the enemy's corps. The squadron of cavalry of the Upper Plain charged with its wonted valour, and from that mo meat all the efforts of the Spanish General were fruitless. He last his position. The company of Horse Grenadiers (all Spa niards) was the first that c .wardly lett the field of battle. The inf.unry endeavoured to re-form on another height, and was in 'witty destroyed. • A corps of cavalry in reserve waited ours, with the lances in rest, and was pierced through and through by our lancers ; the whole S,ianish army, in complete route, and closed in on all sides, after suffering dreadful carnage, threw 1 down their arms and surrendered. With an almost siaitlitaneous movement, Gen Santander, who directed the operations of the left, Ind why d met with an inconsiderable resistance front the enemy's stn, nd to which he bad only opposed his Cazadores, charged with some compa nies of the battalion of the line and the Guides of the rear, passed the bridge and con.pleted the victory. All the enemy's army remained in our hands. General Bar-' reyro, Commander-in-Chief of the Army of New Granada, is a prisoner, and was taken in the field of battle by a soldier of the First Rifles, Pedro Martinez : the second in command, Colonel Ximenez, is also a prisouer ; almost all the Commandants and Majors of Corps, a multitude of inferior Officers, and more than 1600 men are likewise taken, and moreover all their arms, am munition, artillery, horses, &c. &c. Hardly 50 men escaped, and amongst them some Chiefs and Officers of Cavalry, who fled before the action was decided. General Santander with the van, and the Guides of the rear, pursued at the same time the dispersed to this place, and Gene ral Anzoategui, with the remainder of the Army, remained all night iu the field. The advantages are incalculable which will ensue to the Re public from the glorious victory of yesterday. • Our troops never triumphed more decidedly, and have seldom engaged troops so well disciplined, and so well commanded. Nothing can be compared to the intrepidity with which Be nerMAnzoategui, at the head of two battalions, and a squadron of Cavalry, attacked and overthrew the enemy's main body, and to him the victory is in great measure doe. General Santander made his movements with vigour and firm ness. 'The battalions (Paez's Bravos) and the first of Barcelona, and the squadron of the Upper-Plain, fought with astonishing valour. The columns of Tunja and Socorro, joined the left on, the battle being decided. In short, his Excellency is highly sa tisfied with the behaviour of every Chief, Officer, and soldier, of the Liberating Army, on this memorable day. Our loss consists in thirteen killed, and fifty-three wounded; amongst the former, Lieutenant of Cavalry, N. Perez, and the Rev. Miguel Dias, Chaplain of the Van ; and amongst the latter, Major Joseph Raphael de las Beres, Captain Johnston, and Lieutenant Rivero. General Head Quarters, in Venta Quemada, Bth of August. C. SOUBLETTE, Chief of the Staff. FLIGHT OF THE VICEROY SAM ANO—JOY OF THE NEW GRANADANS--CAPTURE OF ONY MILLION OF DOLLARS. FIFTH BULLETIN OF TIIE LIBERATING ARMY. Lieutenant-Colonel Mugica, with the corps of Guides and Dragoons, continued the pursuit of the enemy on the Bth, at day-break. At eleven. his Excellency followed with the squa dron of Llanoarriba, and joined him at Choconta. On the 9th, all the infantry set out. On the 10th, on the arrival of his Er celliney at the bridge of Comun, he received advice from the capital, that the Viceroy, the Audience, with the guard of honour, and the regiment of Cazadores of Aragon, and all the civil and military Officers, had abandoned it on the morning of the 9th, leaving it in a state of frightful anarchy. His Excel lency hastened his march ; and on the same day, entered the capital amidst the acclamations of an immense population, which knew nut how to express its joy--a population, which, after three years of the most cruel oppression, beheld itself unex pectedly liberated, and could not help doubting its immense good lot tune. The streets and the public places were filled with people. All sought to see kis Excellency, the Prelldent, in or iler to ccinviace themselves of the reality. The Viceroy Sarnano has fled in the direction of Honda, and Calzada follows him on the southern side. All the Cavalry ass& the Corps of the Rear•guard pursue him on all sides, and there is reason to hope that none will escape. , The Liberating Army has attained -the object which it pro posed on undertaking the campaign. After 73 days march front Pueblo de Mantecal, in the province of Varinas, his Excellency entered the capital of New Granada, having overcome greater• labours and difficulties than were foreseen on vollertakiag.thls great operation, and having destroyed an attny three times' stronger than the invading one. The precipitation with which the Viceroy and his satellites fled, on the first report of the battle of Bujsca, did not permit him to save any of the public prverty. in the Mint we found more than half a million of sonars in cash; and in all the other magazines and depots sufficient completely to arm and equip a numerous army. It may be said, that the liberation of New Granada has ensured infallibly that of all South America, and that the year intn will be the end of a War, which, with so much horror to humanity, Spain has waged sinc,e , lslb. The General in Chief of the Staff, CARLOS SfSUBLEITE: Head Quartets at Santa Ire, I th of August. In an Official Dispatch, dated at Santa Fe, on the 14th of August, and addressed by the President $o• LIVA lt to die Vice-President of the Republic, he.says, that the People of New-Granada, regardless of their own defenceless state, by attacking dispersed parties of the enemy, have actively co-operated in his absolute extermination, taking arms, and making a great number of prisoners.' He also adds, tbat " notwithstanding the general devastation which this Kingdom has suffereel, the Republic may reckon on a million dollars in cask, besides the large sum which the property of the fugitive oppressors and discon ! tented will produce." KILMARNOCK REFORM MEETINC. . . . _ . . . Another Reform Meeting -took plade at 'Omar , nock, on Saturday; and is said to have been attended by upwards of 15,000 Reform: s and spectators. The usual s itinerant orators were present ; and the usual Radical Resolutions were passed. It was carried by . a great majority, that an Appeal shotild be made to the Prince Regent, and not to the Nation: An ora. tor . wasjust about to commence a lecture, when two Cavalry Officers were seen advancing towards the Meeting ; and trepidation prevailed, until it was ascertained that they had not come with any hostile intentions, but merely out of curiosity. The orator then went on with his speech; but in the midst of it, all at once the hustings gave way, and precipitated to the grouttd about 200 people. Fears weie at first entertained of the loss of lives, but the orator soon thrust his .head above the crowd, and announced that nobody was hurt. The Meeting quietly dispersed. There were thirty-seven flags, sogie of which had belligerent mottoes:—A white one, trimmed with black, had this inscription: " He that hash no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one reverse. " Long locked for tomes at last." Light-blue flag, carried by boys, motto, " Tyrants, behold our youth ful pledge in the cause of Liberty ;." reverse-. , Who_ shat resist us in our parents cause?" White flag, on which was represented a Ilighlandman in the act of shaking chains from hls left hand, and putting his right to draw a broad sword, motto: " By Oppression's woes and pains, By our Sors ip servile chains, • We will drain our dearest veins, But we shall be free !" An old flag, supposed to have appeared at Drnm clog, but so torn and defaced, that the ancient motto could not be made out. The modern ones for the occasion were—" The Constitution of 16S8. I was once good, but you see what lam now." A white flag, on which was a representation of the Tree of Corruption, with the National Debt, Corn Bill, Sine cures, &c. suspended from the branches, and a man in the act of calling out—" Strike at the root.' pole, with a besom upon it, and under it the words— "To sweep away the House of .Corruption." Ano ther pole, with a bundle of rods hanging to it, with the motto—" The more you do bind us, the more united you will find us." FROM ANOTHER ACCOUNT. The Hustings were erected in a large Park near the Powder Magazine. A little before eleven, the business of the day was commenced by Mr. GIBE, of this place (Kilmarnock), who concluded his .speech by proposing Mr. ARCIIIBALD CRAIG, Agent in Kil marnock, to conduct the Meeting ; it was seconded, and agreed to by a shew of hands. .The Chairman, who earnestly entreated the People to quietness, was succeeded in his speech by Mr. STEEL, the celebrated Reformer from Newmilns, who confined himself chiefly to the subject of Paper Money. The next speaker was Joust WILSON, of Newmilns, better known for poetry than for politics. He was very flowery ; and for his share of applauses, got three times three, for the laugl.able way in which he introduced the history of Balaam and his Ass, as illustrative of his object. The following Orator, Mr. PALMER,had a peculiar kaack at the pathetic; and with his pitiful descrip tions of want and indigence, set a number of his hearers a-tearing. . Besides the speakers I have mentioned, there were one BLAIR, from Glasgow; WILSON, from Camlachie; WILSON, from Kilmarnock ; and the Radical Usk, froni Stewarton. His harangue consisted chiefly in 'satire, of which his Stewarton foes got an ample dose. —The strictest order and regularity was observed. The Magistrates, and a great many respectable inha bitants of the Town were present. On the 'whole, the speeches were less violent than was expected; -and after carrying Votes of Thanks to the Female Radicals present, &c. the business of the day was concluded. A great part of the people of Kilmar nock went away immediately, but the country ones were ranked up in order, and marched from the grdund in regular procession, with their flags and their music. It was really a grand sight. Tuesday se'nnigl.t, a disgraceful tumult occurred in Bridgetown, Glasgow. Calder, the Sheriff-officer, Went with a warrant to apprehend r ing Radical, and to search f one assistant with him. As his prisoner, he was attack( grown up lads. He took sln but the proprietor inhumanly infuriated mob, who pelted him him down repeatedly, and - when down. A strong party rived, and the mob dispersed. to a Surgeon's, in Barrow& and a party of Riflemen were door. A lad, who was said _ was afterwards taken prisoner, The Prcvost, and some other r very early on the spot ; and exertions will' obviate further , Tuesday, at five o'clock in t' out in that extensive work _ gow, belonging to Mr. OEDDES, iwith great fury ; but by - 'engines and the prompt ex, der the able direction of extinguished.

My dear Lor&—lt is with feelings of great regret that I con sider myself called upon to resign my commission in your Regi ment of Yeomanry Cavalry. In the situation of Commandant of the Clare Local Militia, i and u the subsequent one of Captain in your Lordship's Yeo manry, both which Commissions were granted to me by Earl Fitzwillinen, I considered myself happy in being an humble in strument in aiding the Civil Po mer of dig Country, when called upon to defend our Constitution ; but in the reasons stated as causes for the removal of Earl Fitzwilliam from the situation of Lord Lieutenant of the West Riding of Yorkshire, I can discover nothing but a manifest intention to infringe that Constitution; I must therefore beg leave to tender you my resignation. For the kindness I have uniformly experienced from your Lordship, I beg to offer my most grateful thanks, and to assure you how much I regret leaving a Corps, of which I had always prided myself in being a Member. I remain, nay dear Lord, Your obliged and faithful servant, • To the Lord Grantham, &c. Ste. . B. R. GRAHAM. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
