" We have been (avowed with a variety of interest ing documents from Angustura. The Libertador, it appears, has been declared Supreme Chief of Guayana, by a meeting of the civil and ecclesiastical authorities, and which has been approved of by the Cluncil of Go. vernment. The urgent necessity for reanimating public confidence, restoring the stability ot- that country, and ensuring future prosperity, seem to have powerfully operated with the wishes of the people, in selecting the Libertador as the only person capable and willing to undertake a task; by no means free froos . great diL cubits, labour, and devotion, aad requiring all the energy of great patriotism. 66 Tholc upon the spot and best acquainted with the springs which have caused this measure, and who ought thetelore to be also most able to judge of its effects,*are sanguine in their hopes that the late of that distracted country will ameliorate—a hope to which our wishes are moat cordially allied. • ."

"The satisfaction is universal, and permission for' the exportation of animals is momentarily expected. as there are letters from the Liberator announcing his in tention of adopting every measure that will tend to rtt Move the evils we are suffering under. A new era has commenced, and it is hoped that things will change for the better." • GREECE. WRAC! 01 A LAMA IRON Tail KOREA. We disembarked on the Est shore of a delicious AeStistxy. of which I cannot give you a more exact idea than by comparing it to the islands of the Southern Pa. cific Ocean. We are encamped under citron and ponies granate trees and laurel roses ; near us run a number of little brooks; and not far from us a river which is said to be great in winter, but is now only like a nar row thread of water in its almost dry bed, whose unequal extent seems to indicate frequent overflowinp. We are two leagues from Coron, a little place fortified by the Venetians, which we passed close to in entering the gulf which bears the same name. The Turks, to the num ber of seven or eight hundred, saw our fleet of seventy sail pass without any visible emotion—crouched down, according to their custom, they stupidly regarded our• progress, and apparently touched by an inevitable des• tiny, which neither permitted them to submit nor to :es sist in an efficacious manner. Every thing then led us I to believe.that in a few days we should have to batter with our cannon this paltry town. It is said that Modon and Navarin will be immediately delivered up to us by the Egyptians, whose embarks. tion has already commenced at Navarin. At present we pass our time pleasantly enough, in a position which we took three days ago; we have neither tables, nor. chairs, nor beds—but, besides these things, we want nothing else. The disttibutions of provisions are made regularly ; the Gulf abounds in good fish, and the I countly furnishes us with excellent fruits, which the, Greek peasants sell to us. These poor people, armed to the teeth, bring us vegetables. &c. cultivated in their gardens; they sell them tons at a dear rate, but they treat us as friends; for Ibrabim and his Arabs, ever since they have been blockaded by the Allied Powers, have given fair words, and promised large sums for like produce, but without success, as no Greek would take any thing to them. The attempts of Ibrahim, after fuur years' residence, to obtain an appearance of submission on the part of the Greeks, have all been in vain ; the spirit of liberty has been so effectually awakened among them,- that he has not been able to procure the confidence even of those peasants who live, as it were, under the cannon of the three places which he occupied. It, in this re mote corner of Greece—the place of his disembarkation, and where all his forces are concentrated—they thus brave his power, even at the cannon's mouth, what may we not imagine the spirit of the remainder of Greece to be I The Greeks of this district are considered to be less civi4.lei than in any other portion of the Morel, and to be roubets by profession ; on our parts, however, we have much reason to commend them; it is true, that it would be rather surprising if it was otherwise; we must .emensber that true barbarians never reason, and that 'wady the Army of thn Faith, to whose assistance we marebed into Spain, stripped and murdered our scat tered soldiers. We have already made several mar -.ions, and we have only met civil people, well armed, it is try . but extremely mild. Yesterday, accompanied by two blends, we directed our steps to Calansata, a Greek town situated aboyt four le sues from our camp. We Men' • part of tire way by sea in a boat, conducted by some Greek sailors.

We found the town completely in ruins; there seemed not a single habitable koom fit for a man at all habituated to comlort ; however, the, greatest part of the surviving population of the place have returned, and every thing indicates that the town will be soon re-established. The people appear active and isaiustrious; we found the inhabitants extremely polite, and possessed of very good manner.: confidence even appeared to have already revived, f ir in the town a great many people were unarmed. We paid a visit to the municipal authorities, who received us very po litely; we procured a goof dinner at a puMir-house, which has been opened only a few days ; my companions only found one inconvenience, namely, that, according to them, the Greeks use too much seasoning in their cooking.

Tall FOLLOWING IX AN RITRACT FROM A LITIIR. ".The great increase in the number of robberies on the public roads in this department, for some days, has been a just subject of alarm, especially in the environs of Perpignan. The robbers were sought alter, but were not discovered—an impenetrable veil seemed to envelope them. It appears, however, that measures were taken to seize them all at the same time. Tyra' Authorities knew their manoeuvres and their object; they were informed that a number of Spaniards, who were concetned in the last insurrection in Catalonia. and known under the name of agraviados, had em named from the interior of the kingdom, and sought eia organize 'themselves in those places where they wee* sekeived with` hospitality, and to provide the means d i scarrying into their country civil war and all its eries. Vagabonds, liberated convicts, and men who, bad escaped from the pursuits of justice; were associated in this criminal enterprise. It was while they were wait. kg for the moment of its execution, and for the purpose it procuring the means of subsistence; that the greater part of them gave themselves up to marauding about the country, and committing robberies. It was .lustaten that at a riven signal they would all disap pear—in fact, the night 4 the 12th instant was the time appointed for their dep.., tore. They , all had eutembied on the height. above the gardens of St. James; arms and ammunition had been distribtited to them by 'some old o ffi cers (Mimitados), formerly in the Spa n service. They were divided into two bands, and ware, on their march for the frontier of the arrondissement of Ceret ; but they had uot proc'eeded far on their route when they ascertained that their intentions had been discovered, .and that they would •be prevented from carrying them into effect. The gendarmerie arrested two stragglers with muskets and cartridges. All the passages to the frontier was guarded; thete rem sioed no other resource then than to fly into the woods; this they were prevented from doing by the inhabitants of the surrounding parishes, with their Mayors, 'Mining to oppose them. M. Toy Dermas, an old Oacer of the, Infantry-, and Member of the Legion or Honour, directed the match of a great number oflthe inha bitants of the town of Octet. The Custom-house Officers also acted in all points with the greatest zeal. The Gendarmerie, under the orders of M. Laurent, Lieutenant of the Arrondissement, exerted himself greatly in the performance of this service.— informed beforehand by the Baron Ronnie, the Pro- Am of the Department, M. de St. Melo, the Under Plefect of the Arrondissement of Ceret, directed the execution of the orders of that Magistrate himself. From these combinations, which were so formed that they could hardly help being attended aids success, there retched, a few hours afterwards, a total dispersion of these bands, which were known each to contain from 20 to 15 men, composed partly of Frenchmen and partly of Spaniard,. The greater portion of them were men with. oat character, sod unptovided with the means of sub- Paws .isterice, b•tt they had been united together on the pre. mise of high pay and the h.,* of rapine and pillage. About SO l'f these banditti were arrested, and have bees pieced in 11 e prison of Perpignan ; the remainder put to Right. and ai• slippnaci to be hidden in the neigttbouts ing forests. Such has been the tenth of the 13th of September. It has shown that there are anon. thi Frenchmen. who are ready to associate themselves with armed band., whole presence alone is a subject of tenet in these parts of the country which they have visited. This asdacious enterprise has been denounced b.fore the seat of Justice, and it is to hoped that society swill be avenged for such an attempt against the public peace."

October 4, MT Loaos—lt is not under. the vain presumption that leo can add earthing to the great honour which you bare so justly earned by the three admirable letters *high you hAsse recently given to the public , that we now take the liberty of a ddressing you, bet in true sin cerity:uf•heapt to gratify our own feelings, by convey- Iry to you she expressions of oar warmest gratitude for the Valuable exertions thus made to save from insole. diate ruin this miserable and distracted counts.) ; sin& is doing so, rescue the whole empire from the baleful cbssequences of suffering the disaffected to pursue their essonbtilutioaal projects unopposed. These letters are calculated to rouse the public mind in Great Britain to a true sense of the present critical state of Ireland; and to hasten the adoption is the pro per.querter of such interference as may be sufficient to rescue the iohabitants of chit island from i body of men, whose assumption of illegal power has ao para. In in the history of Ibis country, and whose esurpatios is in rapid progress towards the complete subjugation of all other authority. To you, my Lord Kenyon, we have most sincerely to offer our gratitude, as well for the excellent matter so impressively stated in your two letters, as for your Lordship twang been the first to lead the way upon this occasion. With that portion of your Grace's letter we entirely concur which states, that although the King's Govern. anent ought. puler ordinary circumstances generally to guide the opinion of the people, rather than to be lad by st. affairs are now in a situation is which 0 an ap. peal to the nation is our only resource;" and we beg leave to quote the representation given by a Member of the present Government, Mr. Dome, in his late speech to the citizens of Deny, u plainly showing that the Government is itself conscious of the necessity of some extraordinary interference in its support. Mr. Dawson says—" The pease of Ireland depends not upon the Government. but upon the dictation of the Catholic Association; it has defied the Government and trampled upon the law of the land.° He states in te pees' terms that o it depends upon the Catholic Asses. ciation whether the Clergy shall receive their incomes or not"—and that depends upon a size, breath, a single resolution of the Catholic Associate's. whether the landlords are to be robbed of their rents or not"—. and he states furthe r, that do the Associa ti on has sob. dued two-thirds of Ireland by its denunciations more completely than Oliver Cromwell-ow-King William ever subdued Bit country by the sword," adding that Go the Aristocracy, the Clergy, the Gentry, are all pros crate before it." It must be remembered that these are the words of a person who is not only a member of the present Go. vernasent, but who occupies a place in it which leanly inferior in knowledge and is confidence to a Cabins, Councillor—and although we by an means admit that the representation given above is, in all respects, core rect, bat are convinced that the Protestant feebng. and the power of those who are willing to uphold the Can• stitution io Church and State in this part of the empito • are very much underrated—yet it cannot but be evi dent. from this humiliating confession by a member of his Majesty's Government, as well as from what is daily passing before our own eyes, that the danger is imp!. neat, and that the period is now arrived when (as is , truly observed in your Grace's letter), o we must decide whether we will range ourselves with Protestants or with Papists." Under these impressions, my Lords?, and associated as we are for the purpose of expres.ing our fires and unshaken attachment to the Protestant Constitution of these realms in Church and State, sod resisting the open efforts now making for its subversion, we beg leave to express the high value we set on your manly and ex cellent letters, to assure you of our gratitude for yOur public spirited exertions in the cause r f the Constitu• Lion, and our earnest anxiety, by every means in our power, to co-operate with your Lordships in whatever may teed to presetve inviolate that dearest birthright of a Briton.

The object was to form a Brunswick Constitutional Club for the Comity.' and City of Limerick. The muster of Country ties. times' on this occasion was very considerable, and they undoubtedly included some of the first in the country, for character, ranJc, and fortune, besides several Cler' gymea. The Right Hon. Lord Masse, of Hermitage, was called by acclamation to the'chair. This excellent No. bleman immediately rose, and addressed the assembly in concise and elegant language," but which the crowded state of the ,room prevented our catching so fully as it deli/med. He thanked the meeting for the honour con ferred oa him. and be could not but feel highly pleased indeed at seeing one so numerous and respectable. At the same moment he must not avoid expressing his regret at the gloomy aspect of the politicaLcondition of this country,, which had rendered it necessary to c .11 them together.
