LONDON, MONDAY, OCTODEII 16, 1826. Etoile contains intelligence from Constantinople, by w: '.eh it appears that the late fire has excited in the minds of the people continual apprehension of similar occur rences, especially at the entrance of Pets and Galata. lit - mans have been issued that the houses to be erected on tlee places where the fire has happened shall be built with reee. This, it is said, aggravates the sufferings of the prone, and increases their discontent, as they find it diffi cult even to reconstruct their houses with any kind of ma terial. The softas (or students) had sent a deputation to the :tinfti to request habitations, provisions, and money. On the following day the Grand Vizier went to the Mufti, and informed him that the Sultan had no occasion for 39,000 softas at Constantinople; that ten only were requi site for each mosque, and that all the rest should be sent out of' the capital. Thus the Sultan's system of reform is in s measure served by the very calamity that seemed calculated to overthrow it. The soldiers belonging to the Arsenal (son in number), and who distinguished themselves 1., their extraordinary services to the Seraglio, are very ,"-contented. Many of the inhabitants are in constant ex pectation of some fresh disorders breaking out; anti they tie forward to each successive week with great fear. The P. , rte seeks every indirect means to disarm all those who are rent engaged in active service; and, although as yet this ob jea has succeeded, it has served to increase the general /tie coment. The L'a;reesa/ Gazette states that the ravages of the recent fire have nat impeded the organization of new troops, which is carrying on with great activity. According to the Sultan's plans there will be organized upwards of 60,000 infantry and four regiments of cavalry within six months, wtliout reckoning the Topchis, which have been organized and disciplined according to the Luropean system. The Sultan pursues his object with the greatest ardour ; and, if tt'e daily assembling of' the Council should terminate in accepting the Russian ultimatum (a circumstance which trea: - y persons doubt, from the known character of his li.a,liness), it is said that it will only be with a view to I .:tie time for completing the organization of the army. This caujectute seems to be so much the more reasonable in ns:- uch as that the Sultan can lose nothing by the delay, but may gain much. Several months must pass before the resti tution of the seven fortresses offered by Russia (with the exeeption of those of' Phasi, which it will not give up) can I,'lnatle, and during that time the conferences of Akermann will continue, by which the Porte will obtain great ad vantages ; and the finances of Russia, on the other hand, will be constantly becoming more and more drained by keep- Lie up a large army on the frontiers. This consideration, it is thought, will prevail in the Divan, and will have more i!lductiee upon the final determination of the Sultan than that of even his own favourite design. Besides, should he be able ultimately to effect the reform he contemplates, it will afford him the means of increasing his army, and of giv log renewed energy to the ',Ared resources. For these reasons it is m st anxiously hoped at Pere that the ltussian ultimatum will be accepted. Letters from the Archipelago state that Lord COCH RANE" has arrived at Napoli di Itamania, and that he is negotiating with the Greek Government fur the chief corn. Instal of the naval forces, with full power over all the creek Admirals. It is said that he has brought with him seven ships, only one of which is English ; the others are either French, American, or from the Netherlands. The ('spitan Paella appears to have experienced some se vere reverses in his attempt against Sachtouris, near Samos. The Inland des Wats contains two rather important ar ticles: the one is a decree by the Princess Regent of Poi:- Tr:LSI , by which the decrees of the 6th of Der. 1660, nth of J rn. 179:e, and the loth of Oct. 1911, which determine the nature of the pains to be inflicted on persons who leave II e kingdom without the sanction of the proper autliori_ t.ts, are republished. This measure has been judged r•cessary, in consequence of a report made to her Royal !licitness by JOBE ANTONIO GLIENREIIIO, ofJus. Lee, who has discovered tint, since the arrival of .he con stitutional charter from RIO de Janeiro, several persons who had acquired considerable property during the politics! commotions iu 1820, anal who were in con stela dread of being deprived of it by the new order ut things, haul conspired to excite an opposition to the es tablishment of the Constitution, and were gaining adlie riarts by representing the moderation anal forbearance on the put of the Government to be only the result of weak and inability to maintain its power. By the decree of I , ..ear, all persons who shall quit the kingdom without leave t* deprived of their civil rights, honours, anal employ- Drente, and their goods are confiscated. Nu judgment is necessary to be pronounced against them ; their absence being legally proved is alone sufficient. The decree of 1792 reduces the confiscation to sequestration in favour of the Treasury during the period such persons shall be absent, provided that they absent themselves in time of peace; and the decree of 1811 renews the terms of the decree of 1660. The other article to which we allude regards the proceedings of the Emperor of AUSTRIA towards the Ilungarian Diet. If the information of the French Editor be correct, M. METTLRNICII will have rather a more difficult task to accomplish than he had at first anticipated. It is pleasant to see this great Continental Dictator braved and defied so near at home. A few such salutary checks as this to the overbearing spirit of the great promoter of the Holy Al:Malec may tend to relax those semi-civilised laws which at present exist throughout the German States ; and a little Hungarian obstinacy may finally become the nu cleus of a grand constitutional reform throughout all Germany. (From the .Inrrnal des DelAte.] VER3IANV._ PnEmma, SEPT. 29. The answer to the eo:nn•unlcations made on the 22d, by the Chamber of Magnates, rt halve to his Majesty's resolution, dated the 231 August, after having been discussed hi Committee in the course of this week, was yesterday debated, being the 151st sitting. After having undergone several modifications, it was sent to the Chamber of Magnates, in which the Grand Judge, the Count of Brunswick. presided. Having heard it read, the Chamber ordered it back to the Dictatory.• MADRID, OCT. 2. (rItIVATE COMESPONDENCE.) After baying received an extraordinary courier, Mr. Lamb de.patched a note to Al. Salmon, requiring the payment of the sums due from us to England, which are estimated at thirty mil. lions of real* (about 400,000/4. Although it is generally agreed that this note concludes by insinuating that in case of non.pay. ment England will take possession of sonic place as a guarantee for the discharge of the debt, yet it is not mentioned what that place will he ; but the reports which prevailed some months back con. cerning the island of Majorca have been revived. The remitting of this note appears to confirm the report which has been abroad for some days, that France and England have agreed to oblige our Government to change its political system ; for, if it was not so, England, who knows, as well as we do, that we are unable to pay, would not ask the money from us at this time. And, on the other hand, nothing is talked of at the Palace but the instructions said to be received by M. de Aloustier, not to interfere in any manner wilt our internal government.

We hare learnt, through an indirect channel. but which may be depended upon, that the answer of the Diet is but little favourable to the wishes of the Court; It enumerates, with some bitterness, about a hundred Important grievances and pressing affairs, relative to various viola tions of the Conatitution, laws, and customs, in the mode of carry ing on prosecutions and levying taxes. The traveller upon whose information we speak had an opportunity to give the answer a hasty perusal, and, as he understands Hungarian, lie had interesting con versations with several of the Deputies; but, as commerce was his object, lie dared not write a single note, from tear of being arrestei, or at least detained for some time by the Police at Vienna. What lie remembers amounts in substance to the following articles:— I. The Hungarians demand that the King of Hungary should reside at least three months in each year at Buda, the capital of the kingdom. 2. They require that the Royal Commissioners, who, not being Hungarian citizens, have committed several illegal acts in various trenches of the administration, should be visited with some public punishment. [The Emperor merely disavows them.) 3. They require that for the future no individual shall be com petent to fill any employment in Hungary without previously taking the oath to the King and Kingdom. 4. They desire a less ambiguous answer titan that the Emperor has made them to'their demand that the Diet should he assembled in full power at least once every three years. {The Emperor in his 411 SW Er has not pledged himself.' L. Tiny renew their demand that taxes may be imposed without the Toenail and previoss consent of the Diet, and climate sums un duly received by the Court! of Austria may be ♦emoted, or the amount dedufleal from what it has to receive. As we ate obliged, thanks to M. de Metternich s horror for all kinds of publicity, to depend upon the nitre memory of a traveller, we can vouch tut no more than tire substance of these demands.— (No.e cf the French Editor.) The New Fork Evening. P. 31 has lately published the re port of the receivers of the moneys and efK eta of the "New York Hope Loan Company." " A more Flemish account," says the Editor, " cannot be imagined. The Company has been in existence but a short time, and has managed, or rather mismanaged, in such a way as to have sunk the whole, stock and fluke, as the sailors say. It reminds us of the story of the Kilkenny cats, who fought until they ate each other up, tails and all." Thus it appears that the North Americans have actually been playing the same game of private banks, joint-stock companies, and unpro fitable speculations, which has recently brought so much distress upon this country. The epidemic which agitated the commercial world for so long a period here was not a mere accidental burst of speculation, confined in its ope ration to this country. If we trace the history of the periods which have succectiel most long wars, we shall find that a tendeuey to rash and unprofitable specula tion almost invariably displays itself as soon as the countries have breathed for a few years, and recovered a little the strength which they had wasted in their mutual contests. Disc.:tier immediately succeeds a war, from the number of unemployed men bred to an active and enterprising life; as soon as this part of our popula tion has settled down into peaceful occupations, the spirit of enterprise seeks a new outlet, and makes trade itself an instrument for its exertion. The South Sea and Missis sippi schemes are trite, but apt, instances of this fact. We contend that the too eager spirit of commercial enterprise was not confined to this country, but extended equally to ether countries, in exact proportion to the relative extent of their ordinary commerce, and earlier or later in propor tion as they were more commercial, or snore within the reach of our influence. The consequences of this fact arc obvious. It shows clearly that the present or recent com mercial activity in foreign countries cannot with propriety be compared aith that of this country while labouring under distress. Foreign countries have still to go through ' the crisis which we have already escaped ; and we shall have far outstripped them before they return to a sound and healthy state of activity. The accounts from all Parts of the country now state a steady and decided improve ment in trade; and our only anxiety, we trust, will soon be only to warn our traders against running into their old system of speculation under some new disguise. The Literiiry Gazelle continues to publish the further developments of its new plan for the circulation of the country. In noticing the subject this week, we must mention two points, in which our last article has been misunderstood. It was by no means our wish to say that the management of the circulation of the country should be intrusted to a Government office : all we as serted was, that we thought it advisalile that it should be placed more directly under the control of Parliament. Our opinion has not yet been stated, and is not yet fixed, respecting the nature of the details for carrying that prin ciple into execution ; nor do we mean to say that the whole circulation, consisting both of large notes anti sove reigns, should be replaced by national paper. We never contemplated the application of the principle to the lower descriptions of notes ; and, notwithstanding the opinions of the writer in the Literary Gazelle, we must still continue to leave that part of the question ivabeyanc?. THE BRITISH PRESS. C ITY, SATURDAY EVZNING. The Briti s h Morn , Market has been in a very lively state to-day. Consols,which opened at 801 , have advanced to 801, and this in the face of sales to the amount of at least 590,0001. This is partly to be attributed to the large sums coming into circulation by the payment of the Four per Cent. Di vidends, and to the purchases made for the Account, the Bears having delivered all their Stock, or nearly so, at the last settlement. Exchequer Bills and India Bonds show a trifling advance ; the former at 18, 19, and the latter at 32, 33, premium. On the Foreign Exchange the grand feature of the day has been Mexican fonds (to such changes is this market subject !) which have, advanced from 63 to 66, in conse quence of . the arrival of the Ilussar at Portsmouth, with 1,4.50,090 dollars on board, 600,000 of which are on ac count of the Dividend, and the remainder for the mer chants. This is the frigate about which so much was said nearly three months ago, on receipt of a ktter from Ja maica at the North and South American Coffee-house, and as to the accuracy of which so much doubt was expressed. The writer, - however, is mainly confirmed in his statement by her arrival ; and it bat so happened that as she did not reach Vert Cruz until after the 7th of August (the date of the last letters), there has not been any account of her re ceived between the time of her leaving Jamaica and arriv ing in England. Independent of bringing this money, she is also the bearer of very aatisfaCtory accounts as to the general state of the Mexican Republic. These circum stances, combined, have had the effect of , raising the Stock 3 per cent. Colombian Bonds have not been so brisk as yesterday : indeed it is not fitting they should : they, how ever, show an advance to 4el, which may certainly be at tributable as much to the aid they have received from the Mexican remittances having arrived, as any other cause. Chilian and Peruvian have both felt the cheering influence which punctuality always inspires, the former being steady at 40, and the latter having advanced to 31. Greek and Spanish are as last. The Del Monte Shares show further improvement to day, having been done from 10 to 30 pretnium ; iu others there is little or no alteration. If it could be considered either decorous or respectful, it would be easy to put some questions to Mr. HrRTADO, the answers to which would at once place his conduct be yond that suspicion which some persons are disposed to attach to it. Such, however, is not the mode in which the representative of any State, exercising his ministerial func tions in this country, is to be placed on his trial. Mr. Ilearano is responsible in this instance for an account of his actions to the Bondholders alone; and, if called upon by them, no doubt he will be able to give a satisfactory explanation ; at least this is to be supposed of Lim , as well as of any other man, until the contrary is proved to be the case. The written declaration given by Mr. Marano to the Messrs. POWLES and others, of his not being concerned, directly or indirectly, on the present occasion, in any Stock transactions, is of course to be believed ; and it is some thing too much to say that his character is to be attacked because, in a transaction of insurance only, he gave direc tions for the policy without advertising the Bondholders of the circumstance in the first instance. In point of fact, however, the Bondholders are not the parsons who com plain. It has been a fashion of late to decry these Securi ties—a fashion which existed before the failure in the pay ment of the dividend; and it will eventually appear, in all human probability, that there is a deeper cause fur the outcry that has been raised than the tru re circumstance of the oversight, eve t n if it he one, committed by Mr. Iles- TAD° on this occasion. The observations that have been offered on this subject app'y to Mr. I; turnuo alone; the cause of the stock jobbing which has taken place is not to be attributed to him, fur a Morning Paper told the world the policy was opened on Tuesday, whereas such was not the fact until Wednesday ; but as it was then notorious that the policy wo u l d be opened, and as the conditions of it were then ascertainable, it is impossible to bold Mr. He era no responsible for what took place after that period. In conclusion, it certainly would Ix very desirable if a house like that of the Mem,. Baum KG would take nil the money aft:4N of this Republic; and it is not to he tkbphirea of entirely bat that such may eventually be the case. A member of that family has a large stake in the well-being of Colombia, awl his influ ence may be beat:lit:loly exerted in this respect. That the state of Colombia is hourly improving is matter of fact ; and that it will redeem its credit with this country is cer tain. Illten the Mexican Dividend was doubtful, the cir cumstance of dollars to come by the Hussar was considered ridiculous. Site has, however, arrived, and the money also has arrived ; and such, it is to be hop e d, w ill b e th e case as regards Colombia. The Duke of York took his accustomed airing yesterday morning. The Duke of Sussex visited his Royal Brother in the afternoon at the residence of the Duke of Rutland, in Arlington-street. Sir Henry Ha'ford, Dr. Macmichael, Mr. Macgregor, and Mr. Simpson, visited the Royal Duke yesterds y. The Princess Augusta left her residence at Frogmore on Saturday on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Glouces ter, at their seat in Bagshot Park.

The Duchess of Kent, accompanied by the Princess Feudore, and attended by the Baroness I,e Spaeth!' and Captain Conroy. honoured the Haymarket Theatre with her presence on Saturday evening.

Mr. Price, the lessee of Drury-lane Theatre, will save 200/. per annrin, during the term be bolds the property, by the death of poor Kelly, that aum having been charged on the lease, ever since the building of the Theatre, by the Select Committee. The corpse of Michael Kelly has been brought from Margate, by one of the steam-packets, in a case, with "glass" written upon it, and was deposited o n Satur day at the apartments of the deceased, in Tavistock-row, previous to its interment in St. Paul, Covent-garden, which is to take place to-morrow. The funeral of Mr. C. Connor, late of Covent-garden Theatre, whose premature and sudden death we announced a few days ago, took place on Saturday. ft was attended to Chelsea Church by Messrs. Bartley, J. Reeve, Egerton, Duruset, Chapman, and a numerous corps of his theatri cal friends and colleagues. Lady Charlot!e Denys, from whom Mr. Connor rented a house for a to in of years, at Chelsea, on learning the embarrassed circumstances under which Mr. Conner met his untimely death, very generously released the surviving members of his family from the obligation of the lease ; and, further, waved her claim to the rent that was due for the premises for the last quarter. Ilnl L PREVENTED.-•-ill consequence of a violent alterca tion respecting& bet that took place between a young gen tleman named J—, and Captain W. 11. It—, of the Navy, last Wednesday evening, at the " New Hell," IVaterloo-place, a meeting was appointed to take place yesterday morning at Shooter's 11111. In!' ,, rmation, how ever, of the intended sffair coming to 51r. J.'s uncle (an el derly gentleman of property residing in the neighbourhood of St. James's-square) late on Thursday evening, he posted off over night to the Green Man, on Blackheath, where lie slept, and, at about half"-past seven yesterday morning, succeeded in intercepting his nephew, accompanied by a friend, pr ocee di ng i n a post-c h a i se to the place of meeting. Thus this atiltir was prevented, but whether an amicable adjustment has been the result we have not hem able to learn. FLANDERS MAIL. VIENNA, OCT. 2. The letters and accounts from Constantinople of 11th Sept. brought by the last mail (only four days later than those received i on the 23d ult. by express) bring no news of any importance from ! the capital or the theatre of war. They contain sonic additional particulars relative to the great fire. The following description agrees on the whole with the accounts we have already gives, only it seems that people are now convinced that the origin and pen. glees of the conflagration are to be ascribed to accident, and the obstacles whicu the elements opposed to the exertions used to stop the flames. CONSTANTINOPLE. SEPT. 11. The fire which bmke out on the 31st Aug. raged till one ticked( on the afternoon of the Ist Sept. after having spread its ravages from the Bagdgi-Kapouesi, on the harbour, throughout a great port of the city, to the Jcni-Kapu (New Gate) on the sea of Marmot's. The want of water, caused by a long-continued drought, and a high north wind, greatly impeded the exertions of the firemen, &c. so that the flames spread rapidly front the port to the wall of the Seraglio. They then proceeded on the direction of this wall from the Pali Khioek to the Sasbhnna. The gates of the Seraglio ' at which a double guard was posted, remained open to afford an asylum In the inner court to the unfortunate fugitives. Goods re. ceived from the lire were brought front all quarters, and the palace of the (,rand Vizier was clear on account of the proximity of the danger. In fact, the tire extended from the corner of the wall of the Seraglio near the A I3i 1011014 k to the Grand Vizier's Palace, which was directly opposite, and reduced it to ashes. Thence the flames I extended along the street of the Divan to the Mosque of Sultan 'Osman, which was considerably damaged, and of Mohammed ! Pacha, communicated to the flesistan, the great part of which was destroyed, and reached the Own of the Mosque of Salon Bajazet. ' In this quarter the flames destroyed the Palaces of Nerisellib Ef fendi, Agent of the Paella of Egypt, of the Kiaja Hey, Minister of the Interior, and of Hutton' Hey, as well as the two great magazines of Vizier Khan and Elrgi Another turn of the lire extended, on the following day, from the Alai Khiosk in a southerly direction to the vicinity of the Ks. elr*a Lentani (Fen of the Galleys), threatened the Mosque of Sul tan Arhmed, the hotel of the Minister of Finance, which however escaped, and turning the quarter of Condoscale, and the Armenian quarter, destroyed the Palace of the Armenian Patriarch, and ended near ..Icni-Kapu, on the sea of 31arinora. The damage is very great, as the Lire raged in the richer part of the city. The regular troops were under arms the whole of the time, and the Seraskier Hussein Pacha and the Grand Viz;er, accompanied by only a few armed men, traversed the Lily in all directions. Tide circumstance, and the opening of the Seraglio to receive the fugitives, shows the confidence of the Government in the disposi tion of the people, among whom no signs of riot nem observed; so that the suspicion that the tire was the work of incendiaries, either in its origin or progress, vanishes. Since the fatal event the Sultan has ordered provisions to be daily distributed a/mug the victims of the lire, under the superintend ence of the V airode of Galata. The Sultan is continual y engaged with the organization of the new troops. Twenty thousand men are alteady enrolled for the twElve regiments of the line, and most of them already have their new it niforms. The Sultan en:;stantly attends their exercises. The building of the barracks at Seutari Dautl ard Namer Paella is not suspended, as was reported, bet is to be carried on as rapidly as The Porte has received by several Tartars despatches from Red. achid Priam, from the camp before Athens, containing news of the •ictory gained by him over the Greeks under Fabvier and Gerais. kaki, who landed at Leash's to raise the blockade or the Acropolis. The Seraakitr states the loss of the Greeks at 1,500 men killed and v minded, seven cannon, standa►ds, tic. The meetings of the Council, which began immediately after the arrival of the last courier frotn Ackermann, still continue. Tne plague seems to have abated within the last fortnight; but there are still many deaths among the Armenians awl testriuu Observer. C6SELII. OCT. ii.

VIENNA, OCT. 4.—.3lcialliques, 69 11.1 t;; al:d Bank Actions, 109'4 Cen,s.—A late Jamaica Paper contains the following paragraph respecting a new tarilit—" It has been currently reported, that previous to the sailing of tha Spanish felucca San joicf, which arrived on Sunday evening from St. Jager de Cuba, a schooner of war had arrived at that port from Cadiz, with despatches, said to relate to a new tarifir l of duties, to be impasti on foreign vessels entering the ports of Cuba, assimilating them in a Bear ptoportion to those laid in Colombia." FROM BRAZIL.—The barque Elizabeth, Captain Clark, arrived last evening ; sailed from Rio Janeiro, July 19th. The 'Cyane remained in port, expecting a relief vessel from the United States. The Boston stoop of war had sailed. The British line of battle ship, Wellesley, frigates Thetis, Adonis, and Briton, and four F:euch frigates and two cor vettes, were in port. The Buenos Ayres squadron, under Admiral Brown, was blockaded in the inner 'Mize, by two lines, the outer line consisting of six frigates, and it war considered impossible for a vessel to escape or enter. A report had reached Rio, that an action took place between the two squadrons at the time Admiral Brown was driven into the above place. Several vessels bad been sent into Monte Video for attempting to force tl:e blockade; among the number brig Leonidas, Bartlett, of Boston, from China —ship Jane, of London, and other American and British vessels. The prize vessels were exp:eted at Rio from Monte Video ; Capt. Bartlett was at the latter place at the last accounts. The Imperial Cones of Brazil would close their session on the Gth September.

STA r E ot• TRADE.—There has not been so much ani mation in the market this week, either for goods or yarns, as for two or three weeks past ; partly, perhaps, owing to the little softening of the cotton market; partly owing to the circumstance, that the full shipments to Russia are nearly over ; and partly to the advance, in particular spe cies of goods, having induced buyers to suspend opera tions. We do not hear, however, of any actual reduction in the prices having been submitted to; nor is our opinion of the healthful condition of trade shaken.—Manchester Paper If Saturday. It is with great plear,ure that we can state that our ac counts from all parts of the ronnufacturing.districts are in one strain—all showing that there is a great and growing improvement in the state' of trade. The Rochdale Relief Committee have suspended their operations solely on ac count of this fortunate turn of affitirs, having still, after expending nearly nine thousand pounds, a balance of six hundred in hand. The new road from the same place to Burnley will also employ a great portion of the surplus po pulation. Six thousand pounds have been lent by the Ex chequer Loan Office for the purpose of carrying it on, to which two thousand more have been added, us a gift, by the London Relief Committee.

GENEJIIL P. 142-. This extraordinary man is a IJanero, or a native of the elevated plains of Various, in Vennuel I. He was the owner of lartls of half-wild cattle, which he attended himself—in fact, an illuerat herdsman. Naturally of a bold impetuous temper, and fingered of strength and activity of body, al•ogether surpriaing in a from raft], r under the common sire, he early distinguished himse!fia those feats of hardihood and dexterity, rendered more frequent by being almost continually on horseback, which, in a rude society, earlier a tide to supetiaity. Erjoying these personal advantages, united to a quick penetrating mind, and much native sagacity, be 11E3 elevated himself, about the time of the Revolution. to a sort cf ehieftaihship, possessing great influence over the roving beads cf half-aavage herdsmen in his immediate vicinity. His ratios am bition prompted him to collect a band of his most daring kneeler.. and, placing himself at their bead, he commenced apartisin pads. tory warfare on his own account. Bring an American, his naturel prepossessions inclined him to the Patriot cause ; but when In wart of provisions or necessaries for his !inane money for himself, to I enable hint to indulge in that strongest of all the passions in on no. Militated mind•—•mening—the cause of his country was often lett sight of, nd the firm patriot then received the treatment mist usually inflicted upon the Royalist. Bolivar, attentive toms growing influence of the lawless chief, determined at ones to fix his principles, and enlist his good qualities for the beret of their common country, by appointing hint to the regular army. This step had the desired eifect. The cause of the country an strengthened by a chief of the most heroic intrepidity; softening a genius for war, which dispensed with the rules of art ; having an. der his command a body cf dauntless cavalry, whose charge, when led by their favourite chief, was irresisillile. These men, toned to the horse front early infancy, resemble in appearance and equipment the Russian Cossack., and, like them, do not owe the effect of their onset to the shock of a mass, but charge separately, or two or three together, depending uyon individual attire.% and prawest; upon the dexterous management of the horse, the later, and the example of their leader. Paez has been engaged in many battles, and numerous minar conflicts, but lie more especially owes his distinction to his conduct at the battle of Carabobo. The contending armies were each about 6,000 men, the had an extensive plain traversed by a road, and on one sale, et some distance from the road, by a concealed ravine. The contending parties, although numerically equal, were not SO in force; the Spaniards were better disciplined, and had a beautiful battery of artillery in position upon the road, contrn :Ming the whole plain, the Colombians being without this arm. Bolivar, know. ing how touch depended upon the event of the day, disposed his force in two divisions, giving the right to 3lontitla. the senior, and the left to Paez, with orders to attack with his two battalions and about 1,200 cavalry by the ravine. The President knew it was a despe- rate game, and had chosen his ag:nt accordingly. Paez, delighted at the distinction conferred upon him by the mansion, joyfully lal on his men ; at first concealed by the indicated ravine, but issuing soon upon the genera Lvel of the plain, the Spanish commander, La Turre, saw the quarter of attack, and endeavoured by a corm. sponding change in the position of his troops and battery to oppose it. But Paez, branclishirg his lance, fell upon them with such ra pidity and resolution, that althea34 lie lost hall his division, he coinaletel l y rooted the whole Spanish army, and captured their am tillay. The carnage of the flying was terrible, and if it bad tot been for the fatigue of the horses, broken down by long marches, and the intrepidity of Illorales, the second in command, who has. tily tbrmed a small square, and retired in that order, not a man would have escaped. About the close of the action, Pus gave an instance of an in. finality, 'which seizes him when violently ex c ited. It is said to 'alterable an epileptic tit. If force be not used to prevent him, which was obliged to be used at Caraboho, his propensity is to charge singledianded agairat whole battalions of the enemy. The results of thin hatnecs battle were the occupaticn of Valencia the next slay, and of Caraccas three days after. Pan was made a Captain-Geteral in the field, by Bolivar, and intrusted with the chief command. This promotion was shortly after sanctioned by s resolution of Congress, in which the General is characterized as die bizzaropeneral Patty. The lelanero I:1;17o . w, by the assistance of the English officers of I his staff, made some progress in the elements of edUCaliOr. Such is his quickness of apprehension, that he learns whithout nifficeity what in others would require years of application. It is to be re grated that the models before his eyes, and upon which lie has formed hienself, were not more worthy of imitation. Ile has leFra every thing presented to hint ; and if he pleases the easy carriage and polite manners of polished society, he has also acquired tie vices. lie is not habitually intemperate, but is frequently eon:ma ted by the conviviality of his disposition. lie carries his pa, , sien for gaining to such an extent as always to keep himself poor, al though lie possesses some of the richest confiscated mtatea in the country. This propensity prompts him likewise to borrow, with little eerupuloueneis, front whomsoever will lend, without treublirg himself about repayment. Formerly, when the minds of the contending parties were heated by mutual barbarities, the character of the General had been snored with acts of cruelty; not merely against the enemy, who, at one period, were put to death when taken, as a matter of course. hut to his own troops. Like other men of great geuius and violent passions, he is a warm friend and a deadly foe. Many aneedtacs are related of the General's fool-hardy intrepi. dity and feats of address Hi • d activity, some merely undertaker by way of bravado, while others had a more laudable object. Amens the first are his feats in leaping and swimming horse! , ; his attacks of furious bulls ; and partieularly his singular amusement of en countering the caiman, eve alligator, in his own element. An in. $ ance of a more praiseworthy exertion of courage was in the cap ture, bj hint and his officers, of a Spanish armed schooner, lying at anchor in the Orinoco. This was effected by swimming from the shore, each of the party halding his sword in his mouth. 23) The General is now (13 about 35 years old. Besides his rei. Maly rank, he is a senator of the Republic. Although clothed with these high civil and military employments, he does not hest. tate to engtge in the most boyish pranks. On the expiration of the armistice of Santa Anna, to show his joy at the event, he set fire to the soldiers barracks. Daring are 11;:r interval of inactivity, fe amused himself by taking his officers to the houses of theg 'rest wealthy inhabitants of Angostura, about th e ti me o f dinner, as if in compliance with an invitation. Those who knew the General put cm the hest face, and produced every thing the house abided. or that could be procured on so uneeremonious a no:ice. o:hera who were more sparing of their wine and previsions, or attempted to make excuses, were sure to have their !mutes sacked, for the pre tended indignity of inviting gentlemen to dinner, without suitable prettaratione. After this round of dissipation had lasted a fortnight. and broken down the health of those engaged, the Geiteral ordered his officers to meet at a designated house, and detached a guard, as if to attend a military funeral. Tee best drinker was acted and placed upon a bier, with empty bottles, tletnijchna, &c. The guard, wilt reversed arms, followed by the efficers, each ear eying an empty bottle, proceeded to the place of' interment, every citizen they met being obliged to aMst at the ceremony, which was conducted with all the formalities practised oa such occasions. A funeral sermon WAS preached, setting forth the convivial mon - plisinnents of the defunct. On the third day, becoming weary • t the absence of amusement, the General announced that a recur-.• nod was abut to take place. 'l'llis was aciowanied by the ri:•s usually observed is Catholic countries on Easter Sunray. The bottles were all fel,d ; nothing but rejoicing was heard ; and the revived totter, plac.el in honour at the head of the table, was ap pointed master of the revels.
