He complied with their request to ask Alvarez to go and look at the piano, and the statement given differs very little from the confes sion of Alzaga.

At four in the afternoon of the 150, the Coainian daot of the Guard took from Arriaga some opium; which he said was to make him sleep, and seized a pair of pistols, which Marcet had asked for; the latter of his own accord gave up a small phial of poison.— Every precaution had been taken the week before the execution to prevent the escape of the prisoners, the, soards at night, were doubled, and no person permitted,' after a certain hour, to walk under the arch of the' 'Cabildo.

A curious letter is in town, written at Cartbageept by an intelligent Colombian, and received by the lair: packet ship from New , Yoi k, which affords some. novel . patticulars relating to the line conspitacy against Pte! sident Bolivar'. ft would vent that, when the Om *4s at fist discoverer, for the sake of the Colombian cha. ratter, there was a wish to throw the blame on the. Spaniards, by attributing the foul design to their in-. ttigues. When, however, it became appatent that many native leaders inere implicated in it, and th it the Lair.. iination or the Liberator way intended to pave the way ,in the accession of another personage, whine power and influence would cease the moment the Spaniards gained 'an attendant'', the idea was abandoned on account of its impiobahility. It has since been- asceitained that the Original project was formed at °can., whese the sums of money necessary to carry it into effect and bribe the tro.ips• were allotted out of the ill-gotten pelf of certain personages who, for a considerable-time, bad 'he loaves and fishes at their-disposal during Bolivair absence, and whilst the English loan transactions woe going_on. Although the number of persons implicate 4 was not fully ascettained when the last accounts cams Away, the pelt ot several who bad cut a great Sore in the republic was fully e-tablishad, and ammig them ti at of Santander. The letter alluded to, however, oh. selves, that althona,h this is the case , it is very dubious a !tether any snore execu ions will take place, in entlin eqiience. of the poaertul atritude,iii which the friends it the conspirators nand, as well on 'account of their rank as their influence ; and Bolivar's object is, besides, to heal woeu , and not irritate them. The eleva tion Of Padilla could have no ill tffecr on the country from the moment Ins guilt•was proved. He could net be said even to belong to the party by whom he was ern- Alo . yed. He was, in fact, too illiterate ta have any ideas of ea' er a government or a revolution ot his own, hid his being put out of the way was A react to sill Lpat ties. Padilla WAS a black, and had formerly been a boat swain of a SPanisli gun boat. Diring, and, to a certain ffient.esperienced, he rose gtadualty, from the early die; of t 1 e revolution, to the rank of Admiral and gommander of the naval department of Carthagena..... The paucity of seafaring men in those (ley' Id. bins almost without a competitor, and some acts of wanton oueliy committed on a fallen enemy mast likely added to his recommendations. His ignorance 'and brutality were, nevertheless. applrett.,and being in favour with the colon' ed classes, his p wer arid influence were ion sequet.ty feared by the whites. It was, indeed, said that he entertained the ',inject of raiting.Carthageoa, Ramie the blacks ate principally concentrated, into a sable republic, under the auspices of the Hay-ian Pre sident, foyer; but the delicacy of the latter in not in terfering in the concerns of any other country .is trio well known to imagine, for a lumen?, that be had any pirticipation in the scheme, if, in reality, it had bees formed by Padilla. The latter, however, always stood in opposition to the whiter. and of their feelings towards him a very correct opinion will be formed from the following anecdote: About two years ago a grand entertainment was given by the Municipality of Carthagena, in honour of some public event. All ti e principal inhabitants were invited, and among them Admiral Padilla, being one of the principal Authorities oldie place. Dancing was going on in brilhant style, when his black EacelleacY, dressed in his full unifutm of Admiral, attended by .several of his Officers, and with the mulatto leer ale with whom he cohabited leaning on his arm, entailed the salcion. The South A metican Ladies, who have a strong aristocratic feeling among them. corned up their noses at the sight of the naval party; bt.t want' the Ad. ' mind and his Lady joined the dance, they collected their partners, and immediately quitted the room, leaving the colouted pair in exclu,ive pos"ession of the 600,...m. Padilla was indignant at this insult offered to himself and his tawny helpmate, and the nest morning, in order to avenge himself, in his character of Commander -of Marine, he issued an order of the day. in which he . expressed his resentment, and actually, in plain terms, I inserted the chromigue scant aleuse of most of the Car thagena married Ladies, to the great annoyanceof their Lusbands, and even enumerated some who °tight long hef,re to have been the inmates of an hospital. Of course this circumstance made him a greater number of enemies, and it may thence be sat , ly inferred that his execution has not been universally regretted. at least among the Carthagena Ladies. From the particulars here mentioned it is also' easy to conclude that Padilla was a very proper person to take the lead in a conspi racy intended to rid the county x of Bolivar, more par ticularly as ample funds existe d to defray the expenses and reward those who distinguished themselves on the oceasion. As part of the original design, Padilla was to have held . Carthago's, the key of the river coma*
