VII • cif ' 110. °1 W • iN 's, COLOMBI A. . PRITATE LETTER. " LA GeATIA, JUNI 2. 4 1 We are here like a foundling who does not *tow his parents; we know just at little who govern us.— This deportment has separated itself front the Govern ment at Bogota, and named General Part Civil and Military Chief. He has written to General Bolivar to come and see matters put to riglets ; but that is all A deception-Ll'aez will do what lie pleases. He is, how ever, greatly disappointed, because the provinces of Coniana, Varinas, and Zelia, will not come trader his orders ; they adhere to 11-gota. In about a month or six weeks we shall know something further, after the decision from Bogota be known. If favourable, Then all well ; but if no:, there will undoubtedly be a civil war. Since yesterday there is a report of another counter-revolution in Valencia; it is not yet ascertained what it is, but General Paez left Caraccas this morning with his Staff, to inquire into it. 4 , We have letters from Bogota to the 30th of April: Times were bad, and no money in tee Treasury. The Ministers and Administrators have lent 2,000,000 dol lars to some merchants, wherewith to buy up the do mestic paper debt from the unfortunate holders, at ten and twelve per cent. while they were pa• sing a law whereby they intended to pay off this debt by a foreign loan, which they were on the eve of contracting. This paper in consequence rose to fifty per cent. but now, with the failure of Messrs. B. A. Goldsmidt and Co., all is at an end ;—no loan, no money ;—and these met. chants remain with the paper, which is not worth a farthing now. It is said they intend to raise a contri bution all over the Republic to meet the dividend ; they must make haste and find good intentioned people, or they will be too late. I don't say any thing on business,., because there is none." ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE. " 1 wish the South American houses and philanthro pisrs with you bad long ago thought as they now do; they have brought ruin on themselves and many others, and while they thought of benefitting this country, they were hastening it to its destruction. These people here were accustomed to despotism, and not prepared for so much liberality; and the sudden change brought on them has made them more vicious and indifferent than they ever were. They have squandered and made .away with the many millions supplied them, and they are now worse cff than ten years ago, becapse theit circumstances have not bettered, and they have ac quired a belief that their situation is of more value to Europe (principally England) than Europe to them.— Agriculture has not improved a step, and bad faith is more experienced now than ever ; this is so far as re gards the Civilians. The Military Chiefs have taken an air of consequence and haughtiness, that every one in his department thinks himself fit to be a King, and capable of enjoying as much confidence as the whole Republic enjoyed, although undeservedly. Their fiat tared pride has created with them a feeling more preju dicial than otherwise_, and the consequence now is that every one will command. Tne means of Government are so reduced that they cannot meet their necessities here—much less can they attend to those abroad. The last accounts from Bogota are to the 30th of April.— The arrival of the Lion cutter, dispatched by Mr. Hur tado on the 10th of February fur the dividend, was then, not yet known. Not any thing whatsoever is doing here; the stagnation is in the extreme, and such, that it has become quite unnecessary to open store." NEXT TUESDAY ALL WILL BE OVER.

Arrived. the Trium ratite brig, hi 60 days, from Rio de Janeiro. The captain, Antonio Jose Ferreire, having died at sea nine days ago, the vessel is under observation, by order of the Board of Health, and the letters are, therefore, not delivered.

(These Gazettes contain no other mention of the affairs of Brazil In the resolution of the Emperor Frankfort Papers to the Bth instant reached us this forenoon; they contain an article from Smyrna, noticing the arrival of M. ROYER, Aid-de-Camp to the French Ambassador at Constantinople, and his sudden dspar ture ; his mission is supposed to be connected with some plan for putting down Greek piracy. The following is an extract: S YRNA, JULY 2. ll•rahim Pacha, after having traversed a great part of the Mores, without opposition, and taken on the way the town of Calavieta, has arrived at Tripolizza, where he will probably remain till the return of the fleet. He will doubtless cause 'Napoli di Roteanla to be blockaded by sea, while he attacks it on the land side. Colonel Fabvier, who has been sent to Athens to assist Gonra; has been imperiously ordered by that Chief to leave the elty,,l " which," says be, " is in no danger so long as my arm can wield a sword." Brussels and Dutch Papers to the 12th inst. reached us this forenoon. The following are the only articles of any interest: BRUSSELS, Jinx 10. We learn frail+ the Hague that the affair relative to the fortifies. done in the Southern provinces, which was under examination before the High Court at Utrecht, will be brought before a Court of Assize in these provinces. It is said that the accusation extends to twenty 'Aliens. The Provincial Estates of Leige• have resolved to petition the Government for further measures to prevent the importation of foreign vain, in the hope of rellesing the distiesr of which the fainters still complain. The French Papers which last arrived furnish vs with some particulars respecting the late insurrection of the Janissaries at Constantinople, which show that the event had bees anticipated, and that .Sultan MAK HOOD, wiser chap his uncle Sulu, whose failure in a similar attempt to establish European discipline gave. him a throne, had taken beforehand every , precaution requisite to overpower all the efforts of the malcontents. His first object seems very properly to have been to re move every ground of jealottly from the minds of the Janissaries. For that purpose be ordered that the 'Officers of the new cohorts &fold be selected out of that body, thus creating a connection between them, calculated to destroy every idea of rivalry: Apprehen sive, however, that ancient pr ejudices might triumph over the sense of public good, be recalled the CATIASK PACHA, and under the pretence of an expedition against Hydra, collected a large force of Asiatic 'troops is the immediate vicinity of the metropolis, who were repre sented as about to embark, at the very time they were kept in readiness to act against the Janissaries, if neces sary.

Loo, music, bashing, proinemding, the fides, and the'nirrounding beauti ful scenery, cause this deli:twist spot to be the centre of attraction. We have much pleasure in learning from almost every part of the country that the silk manufaeturers are now com pletely reconciled to the introduction of French Mks at a duty of 50 per cent. We hear no more of the folly of Ministers, of the ruin of the silk weavers, or of other almhils which' were re garded by some as the certain misvalue. of the measure. In. deed, any man that looked dbpassionately to the question at first, could hardly fail to adept the same opinion 'lthlek now prevails even among those most deeply interested. What with carriage, freight, 30 per tent. duty, nods great variety of other charges - on ' foreign silks, on the one hand, and on the other the low price of 'weaving, and the reduction of duty on the raw material, our silk manufacturers would not deserve the name if they could not com pete with the French. Private letters have been received from La Guayra of the 2d of June. No danger was apprehended by the foreign merchants, by whom the separation of Venezuela from the Government of Bogota was looked upon as inevitable, and favourable to the welfare of the country. Business continued of course very dull. A letter of June 1, reports that General %MUD= has taken the field against PA RS, and has declared him a rebel and a traitor. We suspect, however, this is not true,in its full extent. We have been favoured with a letter, aimed June 3, of which the following is an extract :--u Baa s/RD= has -declared the movement of Pattie to be a revolt, and that it should be- so looked upon ; this has disconcerted PArs more than any event which has yet taken place." BIRMUDSZ, we believe, was at Cosunna. Letters from Naples of the 27th June announce that, by a Royal Ord lance just promulgated, a duty of con siderable amoutit is established, over and above that which is at present levied, on all colonial articles and fish consumed in the town of Naples, the same to take place from the Ist Jan. 1827. From the 24th to the 26th of June, inclusive, no less than 77 sail of square rigged vessels from uropean ports arrivectat Quebec, with great quantities of every sort of British manufacture and merchandise, and 1920 emigrants and settlers; 1698 of whom are from Ireland, 195 from Scotland, and 27 from England. ANCIINT CA Non —Saturday, the 24th of June, as a party of young boys were amusing themselves at a lake within a quarter of a mile of Lanesborough, on the estate of Lutz WHITE, Esq.. they discovered, near a small island in the centre of the lake, a canoe formed out of an oak tree. 22 feet long, two feet six inches wide, and almost 18 inches deep. It is nearly in a com plete state of preservation. The island is believed to have been formed by art, and it is supposed that this canoe was made and used by the persons who con structed the island as a place of refuge, at some very remote period. Tradition is quite silent with respect to any such vessel having ever been known in use there; 'and it seems very probable that the canoe lay in the lake for many centuries. It was buried deep in the mud. The following intelligence is extracted from the Me morial Bordelats, which gives it on the authority of letters from Vera Cruz, dated towards the end of April : • “ It is to be feared that the Mexican Government will shut up all communication with the ports of France, either because his Most Christian Majesty will not recognise our independence, or' because it iugenerally reported here that an expedition of 40,000 men has been fitted out by France and - Spain in common, intended against us. The proper measures hate been taken in consequence to receive them. The French frigate La Nymphe arrived hereon the 15th April. She brings a French Commissioner, empowered to treat concerning commercial affairs with Mexico; but it is pro.' bable that this Commissioner will be obliged to return quickerthan be would wish, for the certain information which we have reteivitd from London, apprises us that his credentials are not in due form —that is to say, his mission is not officially avowed by the ?retie:* G or eminent." • RIOTS ON THE QUAYS, DUBLIN. The circumstances connected with the extraordinary proceedings that took place on Monday evening at Dublin, as briefly mentioned in the STAR of yesterday, underwent a long investigation on Tuesday, at the Col lege•street, Police office, in that City. before the Magis trates Aldermen FLRNIIIiiG and Sir GARRETT and Counsellors G AbBETT and Cols. The following appeared in evidence : Peace Officer Ross sworn—Between six and seven, a number of Gentlemcn called at the police office, College. street, to say that there was a crowd assembled at Car. lisle bridge and the quays, throwing stones at a yeas-1 lying in the centre of the river, and that the persons on board were obliged to fire in their own defence; west there with a party of six peace•of6cers and watchmen; at the end of D'Olier-streek, saw a number of mete throwing stones ; took three of them into custody : saw some shots fired from the boat; could not swear by whom. Mr. J. Ferguson, 5, G ranby-t ow, deposed, that he was one of the. Gentlemen alluded to by peace-officer Ross. In coming down Backville-street, at 20 minutes to eight o'clock, saw a crowd on the bridge, and about the quays, and, on looking over the walls his attention w as directed to a small figure on the top of the mast of a pleasure-boat, lying about 20 yards from the wall, at which some stones were thrown; the party becoming numerous, and the stones flying in showers, it warout of the power of the persons on board to remove the ob noxious figure as the risk of their lives; saw some shots fired from the boat; could not say by whom; saw so stones thrown at a time by the mob, consisting of a great number of mea and boys ; thinks the first shot fired was blank cartridge; remained until the horse police came. Mr. John Walsh examined.— At ten minutes to eight o'clock, going down Burgh quay, saw a crowd of men, boys, and women, leaning over the wall, and on in quiring the cause, was shewn a figure at the mast head of a pleasure boat, which appeared to be a Mercury trampling on the clouds; saw it plainly; but saw no ribbons flying from it ; it was painted a reddish colour ; a boy went up to the mast head, and removed the little figure; this seemed to do away with the angry feeling of the multitude. Mr. Horan, 15, Lower Sackville-strett, examined.— Was sitting in his drawing room, when he saw a crowd of people running towards the pavement under repair, near Carlisle-bridge, at about half-oast seven o'clock; asked a man whom he saw with a stone, what he was about, when hesaid the bloody Orange villains on board a boat, lying in the river, wanted to trample on them, but that they would G* do them ;" a person wearing white trousers came from under an awning, and filed, six times out of a double barrelled fowling piece ; a man near him was wounded by the first shot slightly in the face, but on the discharge of the second barrel, his hand was torn up, and a boy wounded in the eye; each time a shot was fired the mob continued to fling volleys of stones, .crying out, the bloody Orangemen would murder them; the shot fired cut of the fowling piece was that of the smallest slat. Mr. Brown, from whom the image was bought., examined. He stated, that he had it for a sign for up wards of two years, and it was only on Friday lastibat his son sold it to a gentleman, who bad agreed before with himself on the price ; it was purchased for a vane to the boat, and was made of shogt.ison; it represented Mercury with a caduces, and was painted about iciir weeks since, as near a flesh colour as possible ; there was no shamrock under the feet, but a representation of a cloud, and he could not conceive how any person could take it for a shamrock; the vessel was called the Cor sair ; the mob threatened himself for attempting to calm their violence. Here the three Gentlemen taken en board the vessel were brought forward, and they stated their names to be Richard Kean, jun. John Creery, and Robert Boyd. The Magistrates asked several times, were there any persons present to snake a charge against them, or ready to identify them, when no person appearing, the Magistrates went into the interior office for some time. On the return of the Magistrates, some further witnessee were examined. Brady, the boy who had been wounded in the eye, was next examined.—He stated that there were two or three double shots fired before he was hit; he saw the person who fired go back several times, as he could not take aim in consequence of the showers of stones ; it was about the sixth discharge that he was wounded; he saw one volley of the stones thrown at the fig Ore, and all the others were thrown at the men ha the boat ; .beard the people say, •. fire away at them ;" that was, to pelt them with stones. Magennis, a servant, saw the the riot ; the mob were throwing stones incessantly ; some of them said the figure represented " bloody Ha milton, who was turned a devil, and was trampling the shamrock in spite under foot;" the stones were thrown for a full half hour, before the shots were fired, and he saw one of the persons on board struck with a stone on the shoulder ; he attempted to speak to the people front the boat, but he could not-be beard from the noise and clamour which prevailed. Some other evidence of minor importance was afterwards entered Into, but at too late an hour to glee In detail. The Magistrates then adjourned the anal decision on this tramme -1 don until next day, all the parties being kept over in custody, It of Lady Nitzt.t.zatil, the Ambassadress of England at Vienna, and her suite, arrived here yesterday evening. from Lou don.—Br, mis Paper:l4 9. Baosszts, JULY B.—The British Colonial Messenger passed through here this morning, on his way from St. Pctersburgh to Loudon, with dispatches. His Roy Highness tlie Prince of ORANOS arrived at Brussels on Saturday last. The ball given by Mr. FancussoN, of Craigdarrocli i on Tuesday sinnight, in honour of his election, as M.P. for the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, was numerously and fashionably attended. In the contest, we have heard that the hopes and wishesof the Ladies went along with him ; and certainly on this happy occasion he was zealously supported by the fair. The dicers of the Kirkcudbright Yeomanry appeared in their graceful uniforms. Dancing contmenced at ten old( ck, and was kept up with great spirit till one, when supper was announced. About 130 sat down to supper, which was served up in elegant style by Mr. Malcolmson. The wines were choice and in great variety, among which the Champagne and Burgundy were decidedly the fa vourites. The health of the Member of the S:ewartry was drank with three times three; and he, after th ,nking 'his friends warmly for the kind wekome they had given him on his return to his native country, propo s ed "The Ladies," which was received and drank with the met enthusiastic acclamations. Alter supper, dancing re commenced, and continues till broad day-light gave the signal for departure, and a happier and mote truly i joyous meeting never et.livened the ancient bu•gh of kcudbright.
