" You will, no doubt, have heard, ere this, of 1 'he ra;:id success c.f MIRANDA, en the Npanish Main. accounts received here yesterday, we team, i that he ha" intercepted letters from the Spanish Commander in Cities. t ) ass Goeernm tnt at Madrid, stating, that he cannot mutter more than ore thon san;l stand of arms, and that his men are daily de- serting to the enemy ( Mistatina).

There has been a very severe hurricane and fall of Pain at Dominica, which has carried one half nf the town of Rousseau into the sea, with up veards of 9(X) inhabitants. It is reported to have extended to the islands of Martinique and Guade loupe." asasanoes, seer. 27. The grand scheme and enterprise of this bold and aspiring man begins now to assume a favourable aspect, and from the promptness and decision with which he eas, promises the happy secnmplishment of his benevolent purposes in invading his native, but oppressed, county Miranda's success at Coro has before been knows. here, as wed as his prepara tions fur proceeding against Marycabo ; from the fortunate Interception of a Spanish mail-boat from La Guayra, the dispatches of the Captain-General of Camas in eke Commandants of Cumana and Margaritta having fallen into the hands of our Coat. menders, many interesting particulars are obtained, which tend is illustrate the former account, and Je velope the deplorable state of the country. Miranda carried Coro on the 3.1 August,..by storm , without any los t onliisside, but at alLinedi 011 . That of the enemy I he immediately after attacked Marycabo; small but rich town in the province of Veneauella, situated on the western banks of the lake of that nam , ab iut eight leagues ilOll4 its mouth ; and al most at the same time a place called Little Gibraltar. about thirty leagues south of Mars cab° ; both which were taken without much opposition. The Captain- Genitral t.f Caracc.is, after detailing in his dispatches these successes of Miranda, proceeds to state the means of defence in his power to oppose his further 'progress, which his represents as totally incompetent 1 9 an y e ffative purpi.se. The whole amount e f his force he estimates at 4400 men, nearly cne-h,ii of which are Negices and Indians; and such is his defi ciency of arms,tha: those have no other weapons than cutlasses. In his dispatches Le urgrnde cads upon the Governor of Cumana and of Margaritta to use every effort to send him succours as soon as pi.s,lble; and says he is even deficient in specie, the public money only amounting to 90,000 dollars ; calls upon thein c ia the name of His Most Catholic Majesty, to procure him money ; and desires, for that purpose, that the duty on tobacco may be mortgaged ; and that they will do every thing EnT.:r power to send him assistance to drive the traitor item the country, before he has too far disseminated his pernicious principles. He larnaws that the fine province of Carthagena should be open to the depredations of the invader, and says that the clangil winch threat ens Terra Firma is infinitely greater than they, or the Spadrsh Government, are aware of. He tells them, that unless Miranda is speedily checked. the whole country wil! be lost to Spain; and that this weir be inevitable, if England assists him. His dispatches conclude with representing the people, with vestibule exception, to be loyal and well affect ed ; but he again laments the want orTrms, which prevents hins.be says. from overwhelming the traitor. A number of private letters were also secured, along with the dispatcher-, and these serve further to depict the consternation and alarm which Mi randa's enterprise has excited. The Spanish mail boat, or rather canoe, which had been dispatched with there letters , and advices, , was captured by His Majesty's sloop of war Osprey. off the coast, soon alter she had left La Guayra, and was carried into Trinidad on the 14th instant. Sir Alexander Cochrane arrived there on the 19th, and Geneve! Bowyer on the Co, and have been put in furl possession of every fait relative to Miranda's progress and appearances of success. There is a coincidence in this circumstance most propitious to the fortune and genius of Miranda ; for, having been in the first instance cenntenaoced and support ed (as far AS we can judge from apparent testimony) by our Admiral, the strongest inducements ire now held out for the co assistance or the General ; and it is even already said, that arrangements were making at Trinidad, conjointly between them, for affording immediate aid towards the furtherance of his undertaking. As it is, Miranda owes his present success to bur Admiral ; and we may fairly assert, that but for the countenance he received here, and the naval support afforded him, his efforts must have been rendered abortive.
