At the same time Merino 'is attacked on all sides in the inte- Irine, so that at s time'when the Royalist's thought to rest and prepare fur the next campaign, they are, notwithstanding the valleys are under water, at - I tacked in their very fortresses. This vigorous and. 'hold conduct on the side of the Patriots is said to he solely owing to their Chiefs having come to a good understanding with one another, and seen, at last, the necessity of a perfect union, to which may be added, the consideighle supplies in arms and ammunition which they have lately received (ruin England. " An officer in the Patriot Army writes from An gostura, on the 10th of last month, r that 111brino, who hitherto had acted independent of Bolivar and others, had acknowledged Bolivar as Chief of the Republic, as all the other Patriot Generals had done before, and that he had joined heartily in the general plan of attack with his 1,500 well-diacip• lined troops.

We hose some reasons to believe, that the infer ence drawn from this dispersion of many member, of the ItiivAl Family is not, at least in every isistatice. correct. the absence of the Duke of CUalliltall.•ND from England might indeed be fairly attributed to the ungenerous and unjust severity with which the Queen repulsed her niece from the precincts of her Court. The delicate texture of a female mind could, under any circumstances, but ill brook the glance of suspicion; but not even a muse of centscious rectitude could support it when in the peculiar situation of the Duchess of Cust- IIIttLAMD. it was natural that she should flee from the scene of her sufferings, and seek this balm of consolation where her character was better known and her merits more highly apprecisted. With respect to the Duke of Camaatocsa, it must be rememliered, that he is now filling • high official situation of extreme responsibility in the kingdom of Hemmer ; and the absence of the Duchess of IIaSSE Hosinotnto can be excused by a reference to her husband's will. The case, however, of the Duke of CLARrsce is most peculiarly and honour ably exempt from the suspicion which his absence from England at such a moment might be supposed to create. Hiss Royal Highness has been nisiformly distinguished by the display of every generous feel ing, awl in a heart where the domestic affections Live peculiarly funned their abode, it could never be supposed that filial love and tenderness were wanting. it is out long since we noticed his lib seuce from this country, with expressimis of *meow. nut from au ignorance of the motives that caused it, bnt with a desire of drawing the atteolion of the Ministers and the coin.- try to its consequences, and thereby pronintisig the uteasis of his return.

A great number of foreign Officers ore daily arriving from all parts of the world.

Colette! Wilson, an Eng lishman, has lately been condemned to imprison ment for life, it having been proved that he at. tempted to persuade General Pais to separate from Bolivar ; Ise has been sent to the fort at Guayana*: " If all these accounts are true, I have very little doebt, that if the Patriot Chiefs remain united, Venezuela will be cleared of the Royalists in the course of the text campaign, unless they should receive strong reinforcements from Old Spain, which, however, is not likely. I under stood there is a proclamation in town made by Bolivar, as Chief of the Republic, dated the 15th of August, in which lie promises victory, &c. and calls on all Patriots for a cordial co-operation, par ticularly of Grenada. which be intends to attack. May it please the Almighty soon to stop the lior rible.bloodshed in these unfortunate Provinces! " A few days ago arrived here Captain Brown, of. the schooner Eliza. of New York ; this schoOner was bound from bete to Rio de la Hatches or St. Martha. Near the coast she was overhauled by a Royal Spanish privateer, commissioned by the Go vernor of Rio de Is Hatch., who wantonly fired into her, after having taken in all sail. While the C a ptain was iu his boat, going from his schooner to the privateer, they were pouring volleys of mus. ketry at him ; and on boarding the Mize, one of the Spaniards deliberately, took situ at, and shot a Mr. Willionis, part owner of the Eliza, through the heart !! ! They then plundered the vessel, and res. rird her into Rio de la liittchs, where Captain Brown made a protest, and gut a part of the thins stolen from him restored ; his schooner was so . torn to pieces, that be had to sell her. I under. stand that Captain Brown has made the proper communications to the President of the United Stairs, and 1 hope such a foul murder will not be suffered to pass, without proper stitisfaction being given, and the injury„ as far as pussitle. redressed to this unfortunate man."

Her MAJESTY'S Council assembled yesterday at the Treasury Chambers, Whitehall, to delibe rate on the immediate consequences of her de mise. as far as it respects the care of her vene rable Consort's person. The Members present were, his Grace the Archbishop Of CANTERBURY, the Marquis of CHOLMOKDBLEY, the Bishop of LONDON, the LOAD CIIIEF BARON, Lord ST. HELENS, and Sir WILLIAM SCOTT. With this Council the care of the KING resides until the meeting of Parliament, which will of course be summoned with all convenient dispatch. Both Houses now stand prorogued to the 29th of De. ember, but their prorogation will in all likelihood, be still further extended until the second week in January. Some time will be occupied in swearing the Members, appointing the SPEAKER, officer% Standing Committees. and Committees of Elec tions ; but the first regular proceeding of Perlis inent will of course have reference to the interest ing situation of his MAJLITY. The care , of bis sacred person will be the primary consideration, but the opportunity will not, we trust, be omitted, of inquiring into the expediency of effecting a very considerable ►etrenchment In the Windsor establish ment. In the unhappy condition to which the KING is reduced, nothing more can be desired for him than en assurance of every convenience and atten tion that can render his unhappy situation as comfortable as possible. To support the pageantry of state, and continue The observance of court etiquette in a place where every circumstance offers a humiliating instance of human infirmity. is but • mockery of grandeur, and seems rather to heap insult upon the Royal sufferer than to afford consolation to his sorrows. The extent of the Windsor establishment was originally regulated by a reference to the possibility of his MAJESTY'S reco very, and the considerate delicacy of Parliament could not endure that un that happy event he should be induced to entertain a belief that he had been neglected in his calamity, or had been rudely de spoiled of the robe of Royalty. This -hope. however, has long since vanished, and every consideration of propriety should induce Parlia ment to terminate an enormous expenditure un suited to his MAJESTY'S situation. and incon sistent with the financial embarrassments of the country. Let his MAJESTY continue to receive every comfort and attention, and every indulgence it is possible for him to enjoy ; but let it not be suffered that the mistaken generosity of the nation should be converted to other purposes than those which were contemplated in the original grant. Who ;does not believe that an annual sum of 30,000, I would be quite su ffi cient to provide the K tea wi th levery circumstance suited to his means of enjoy. men► ?—uud if this be found adequate for the pun. pose, any thing exceeding it must be considered unnecessary and absurd extravagance. The following is from the Court Reporter We omitted to state, that the Duchess of GLOUCESTER Slid the Princess AUDUSTA were pre sent with the PRINCE REGENT and the Duke of YORK at the expiring moments of the venerable QUEEN, their mother, on Tuesday. " The Archbishop of CANTERBURY was sent for by the same messenger who brought the summons to the PRINCE REGENT to attend at Kew, but Iris Grace's tinnily being at their country-house, at Addington, some difficulty arose as to meeting with Ins Grace ; he was, however, met with at the Office fur the Building of New Churches and Chapels, in Great George street, Westminster, whe►e were assembled the Bishop of LONDON, the LORD PRESIDENT of the COUNCIL, the FIRST LORD of the TREASURY, and other Members; his Grace's carriage being then engaged by his Lady, hr hired a hackney chaise and four to con►cy Mut to Kew ith all poa•ible shred. •' The Duke of Ylax, accompanied by Sir HENRY HALFORD, left Kew Palace three Vclock on Tuesday for Winds'', while, alter in forming the Princess SoPuu of the instant-hey event that had taken *cc, the Doke of Youk returned to Londoei. " A Privy Council was to have been holden at Carlton House, on Tuesday, but it was postponed, owing to the presence of the 'NINCE REGEN'T b e i ng requi re d at Ki-w, and the demise of the QUEEN. " The inquiries at Carlton !loose and the Queen's Palace were yesterday very numerous ; among thorn were— Lord mod Lady Ellenhorough, tin French Antbassador, the dlanhioness D'Osnsotill, Sir R. awl Lady Chester, t lin Reverend A. bud Mrs. Starkey, the Vice.Clsaucellur, the llfarchioness of Hastings, &c. " The answer to these distinguished personages Was, the Undies. of GLOUCESTER and the Princess AUGUSTA were as Well as could be expected. " The Countess Dowager of HARCOURT sat up wills the corpse of the Quest( on Tuesday night, as one of her MddEsrit's Ladies of the Bed . - chaniber, at Kew Palace; she also sat up last night. " The Countess Dowager of CARDIGAN, one of the QUEEN'S ladies in Waiting, sat up with the corpse of the Queen last night. " The exact time when the QUEEN expired was twenty minutes after one o'clock on Tuesday. " The Duchess of GLOUCESTER and the Princess AUGUSTA were expected to remove last Hight to the Duke of CAMBRIDGE'S residence on Kt:w Green. " Sir F. MII.MAN continues at Kew Palace. "The Doke of SUSSEX arrived yesterday at Kew Palace, after receiving the distressing intelligence of the demise of his beloved and Royal Mother, to condole with his afflicted Sisters. Lord ARDEN was among those who arrived it Kew yesterday. " The PRINCE REGENT left loam yesterday. shout one o'clock, for Kew, accompanied by the Duke of Yoat, where their Royal Highness ar rived a little before two. About four o'clock the Duke of YORK left Kew for Windsor. Sir HENRY HAT TOED left about the same time, to attend the KING and the Princess SOPHIA. " Sir E. Howe, the King's Serjeant Surgeon, arrived at Kew Palace on Tuesday night, and Sir DAVID DUNDAS, and Mr. BRANDS, the Royal Apothecary. " We understand the corpse of the QUEEN has been embalmed.; the body has not been opened, as has been customary, but it has been enclosed with wrappers for preservation. " Mr. MASH, of the Lord Chemberlain's Office, attended by Mr. Fasaics. the Royal Undertaker, were in attendance yesterday morning at Kew Palace, to take instructions respecting the interment of her MAJESTY, and the dimensions of the first coffin, &c. Mr. RANTING MU sent for express from Ox fordshire, upon the melancholy occasion, and ar rived at Kew Palace last evening. " Yesterday, at twelve o'clock, a meeting of the Ldrds of the Council was held at the Council Cham ber, Whitehall, which was attended by The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishop of London, the ImrdPreesident of the Council, the First Lord of the Trea. Bury, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Secretary of State for the Home Department, the First Lord of, the Ad. rally, the Lord Steward of the Household. the Lord Chief Baron, the Judge of the Admiralty Court, the Judge of the Arches Court, &c. The subject of discussion was supposed to he, whether it should be recommended lo the PRINCE REGENT, representing the Sovereign. that the fu neral of the QUEEN should he similar to that of Queen Cwwouss. as by an Order in Council, or to be under the direction of the bun CHAM BERLAIN." We have received a Buenos Ares Gazette of the 2d September, from which we extract the following article of intelligence:— " On the 26th of August arrived at Ensenada the Spanish ship Trinidad, which ves►el formed pad of an expedition of tea transports, under con voy of the Spanish frigate Muria Isabel, of 50 guns, bound to Lima. The troops on board the Trinidad rose upon 'the officers, of whom they killed six and threw them overboard; alter which, they obtained pos. notion of the ship. It appears that the plot of the insurrection was laid in Cadiz, previous to their departure, ■nd having parted from the convoy in lat. 5.

We could not have anticipated so great a trophy in the cause of liberty, or rather so foul a blot upon the green bag tystem, as this development presents to MIAMI.
