VENEZUELA AND NEW GRANADA-THE CAPITAL OF TH E LAT FER TAKEN RY THE PATRIOTS. The St. Thomas's Times of September 28, which was received in town yesterday. brings a. con firmation of the capture of Santa Fe and its Spa. nosh tre•sury, containing half a million of money, by the Venezuelan army, tinder the command of the President 13ut.tvAit. Previous to this im portant event, three desperate battles were fought : —ri le first on the Ist of July, at Guntza, in the province of Tunja ; the second, on the 25th of Ju:y, at Patano de Barg, near the capital of the same province; and the third on the 7th of August, at Venia Guamede, about twenty-five leagues from Santa Fe, in which the President totally annihi fired the Spanish army under General ILittasitio. The Viceroy fled from Santa Finn the 9th, least. ing all the magazines and the treasury behind him; and Bouent entered soon after, and dispatched a division to Pampeluna. A Jamaica Paper of the 15th September, con. tail's news of some importance. His Majesty's ship Beaver, of 10 guns, arrived at Port Royal on the 140 i, from Carthagena, bringing the latest intelli gence from the Spanish Main, and long details re specting the late n•ilitary operations. The intelligence by the Beaver (the Jamaica Paper states) leavcs no doubt as to the capture of Santa Fe by the forces under Bot.iv.ta; indeed it is mentioned that the official accounts were received at Carthagena, pre vious to the sailing of the Beater, and had been shown to Captain HART, of his Majesty's ship Sapphire, lying at that port. There were two battles between the contending parties, before the one which decided the fate of Santa Fe. Parliament will meet this afternoon, and the country awaits with trembling anxiety the expres sion of its opinion. There is a respect—a rever ence attached in the mind of an Englishman to the ides of Pediment, so intimately and so constitu tionally, that not even the avowal of the Ministers that they have convened the Legislative Bodies for the purpose of framing laws to diminish the sum of general liberty—not even the conviction that the majority in either House have proved themselves devoted to the will of the Ministers, can prevent the people from feeling a considerable share of sa. tisfaction at the meeting of the great Councils of the realm. It is, indeed, some security to the country against the enactment of measures severely restrictive of the general rights, that those who ascent to them must at the same moment expose themselvel, their families, and their friends, to their operation, and thus the individuals who might vote r according to the caprice of Ministers upon speculative points, or in support of a. financial project, because against the possibly injurious efficts of these the Ministers could easily indemnify their pockets, would be unwilling to fritter away the liberties of the nation, because in so doing, they must forge chains for their own persons—and what could compensate far the loss of freedom ? But whatever may be the result. it is certain that the Ministers have gratified the wishes of the far greater portion of the nation in calling Parliament together, and have saved themselves front at lei.st one topic of reproach ; they have also prevented many county meetings from being held to delibe rate upon the unhappy events at Manchester; for as those who desire inquiry could pray for nothing beyond the call of Parliament to take those events into its consideration, the public notification of the intentions of the Crown rendered in the opinion of many persons all further proceedings on the part of the people unnecessary. The circumstances of the country at the present moment are nut very dissimilar in appearance from what they seemed to be when Parliament met in January 1817. There are. however, some material points of differeoce. The distresses then endured had been seriously aggravated by an utipropitious harvest in the preceding year. and Ministers took advantsge of the circumstance to arraign Provi deuce for much of the calamities of the people; but now they can urge no such pretence. They are also deprived of another plausible topic of de ception, and can neither attribute the distressed condition of the country to the " sudden transition from a state of war to a state of peace." nor assert their belief that such distresses are merely local and temporary ; for since the termination of hostilities time has rolled on, and we have mot experienced his " healing influence ;" capital and industry have had full [rhyme to find out channels of employment better suited to the pacific habits of Europe ; but industry has either started it home. or emigrated to other countries, mid speculation has becoute bankrupt. It would have been well for the coun try had the suggestions thrown out durisig the de. hate o.i the Address in 1817, by Earl Case and Marquis WELLgokur iu the House of Lords, and by Messrs. Porisunne itid•TIERNST in the House of Commons. respecting the expediency of a so.. tem inquiry into the state of the nation, been adopted and pursued. The Minister., however, _,_:, 4.,•4L0P , !-.7 - ~~~.~: Were too deeply impressed with their own a.„ tions of temporary distress, and or th e 11.! nn• tnge of temporary expedients, to search dew, into the altered circumstances of the count er : It was impossible that a war of such nnevainn'id expenditure and length as that from which w e 14 • year before emerged, should lint have efr, c r e d mighty revolution in the laws of Great firitaio ; it was also impossible that the cesmotion of each a violent actaionseonnsibtlliee shock.entir entire system r ; produced r were right; but unfortunately they nal ' , m i re the mode in which the action or the cessation had operated ; they looked only to th. 2 tiarr. ve o f l h e and thought o f h ea li ng t h e .t . sere bw the i3, re . apparent—while their !Hutto lour opi:ntirlito, more sagaciously and more like statrs:ner, vee r , , r opinion that the wounds should he carefully ',soled. and the effects of the convulsion he traced throve:. out every part of the ayatent.

They in consequence propose laws against seditious meetings, and strengthen their riii:iiary finer. flat will such measures allay the spirit biat excites the people to mischief ? Will they give employment to the idle, food to the hungry, or hope to the desperate ? Meas►►►es of severity have been Mid and found wholly useless, and it is bad policy to exasperate any portion of the people which may be considered already displeased with the e,i,aluct of the Administration. This, ligsrev,r, mast ►re the effect of any laws restrictive of the ri4lit of meetin g in public; such laws must affect the whale itatioa, for it will he impossible to distingtEsh, by any pre. vious regulations, a loyal and con.tittitiensl free% ■ seditious assembly. Much as we contlemo ta. species of Parliamentary Reform which is drafted by the Radicals, we should mull lament that perwi honestly believing that such a' mode of reform could alone maintain public rights, shoot,: be es.. eluded by any general law from meeting to express their opinions. There are many persons iu the country of speculative habits, who sincerely profess the belief that, if the House of Commons were. constituted by universal suffrage, and were elertel annually, the pore spirit of the British Ciinvii Lion, in its present form, would be best pr,eived. And shall such persons be, by a sneepitie ment, declared traitors to their King and cooot , y ? Such a declaration would be extremely i11y.% although they might, with much truh, he 1...- flounced had politicians. Their arguments rim have no influence if the House of Commit•, it i.s present mode of being constituted, spew itself dependent of corrupt influence, for the great n:a•s of the people in every country are hostile to chat g... and nu revolution proceeding from the people .“-r yet happened in the annals of mankind, which could not he distinctly traced to the crimes or f.•;- lies of the Government. Being upon this subject, we cannot resist the temptation we feel to transcribe the words used by Earl GREY at the conclusion of his admiral)!r speech on the Address in 1817. They •epic /lit:p surprising minuteness to the present state of the country : " I should," said the Noble Lord, " be extremclv seas if..-by confounding all those, who sincerely, mud .ith 1.. nest intentions endeavour to procure a reform in the gislature, with persons disafficted to the Government—tot opinion should be excited in this country, er in Catope, that there mar any considerable body of men anion ui cn tertaining designs hostile to the Constitution.
