Yr.OM THE AURORA
Extract of a letter from a S,tt h Ameri.
can at Caraccas. to a friend in P/ula _
delfthta. Aug 18 1-;10.
Anxious as you appeal o he of hearing
news of my ountiy. 1 w il tell you, -nat
since you have heard of oui ind peudence,
theie is no utw, hut what is n< w current,
that Santa Fe has proclaimed i s indepen
dence. though at iheaost of some blood. -
It is in vain that some Spaniards of Europe,
who, for interest alone, are our enemies,
endeavor to spread horrid ideas upon ihe
present silua ion of Caraccas, for the sole
purpose of terriiyjng and discouraging the
remaining parts ot South-A inerica, and to
persuade its inhabitants, that they cannot
i.joy peace, but under their tyrannical au
thorny.
How different, now, is the situation of that
pi O' mce from what it was before ; things
are ail changed fur the better : hardly was
independence established, when »he govern
inent, propitious to commercial relations,
reduced tile importation and exportation du
ties; b i.k. the shackies that paralysed
them, ml permitted to friendly foreigners
to establish themselves in our ports, its
inhabitants, tilt now, looked upon as sloth-j
ltd are no more the same : the husbandmen,
the artificers and tradesmen, secured in the
possession ot their property, are seen, one
class preparing themselves to improve their
industry, ajid tue others to iuetcase their
toils; die literary men, no more shackl'd,
write with freedom what they conceive and
not wlia. fi s despotical oppressors ; and
had it not been for this liberty, already, we
should have been ignorant ot many valuable
woi ks.
A • I was going out of Laguira, the most ^
reverend arch bishop appointed by Ferdi
naud the 7th, was coming in ; neforc he was
a prisoner, a id in -ugh he had sworn tothe
i « g ncy '.hat govern some parts of Spain in
Europe, on his being informed of the new
system we had elected, he swore not only o
bedience to the new government, but enga
ged ms holy power to maintain and keep die
good older and tranquility now existing in
that province : nay, lie did more ; he gave
over in favor ot lie stale, turiy eight thou
sand dollars ot his reins kcepmgonly twtlve
thousand dollars tor his expences; so that,
we can s ty that the guspei made use of by
our tyiauts during these three Hundred
years, tor so many ill purposes, this holy
man has come to serve f r grand designs in
con firm ii g to perfection, the foundation of
our so long wistied for libe rty.
Ot * he various wri mgs and proclamations
mad* by the government of Caraccas. there is
one, the contents ot which, as a citizen of the
LJ. S. must be very flat ering to you ; that
motive ei gages me to give you herewith an
ex met from it.
(icwlcmcn — We are born at an epoch in
which the two first na ions of Europe, and
tha. ofilic U. S. should set no other exam
ple, hut those that are wor hy tube initia
led ; in the mid** ot conflicts, yet they are
the models of all that is majestic and g and
to a state about to be regenerated, w hich
covets he free intercourse of nations ; hey
who look for commerce, have but to ob*
serve the politics of England a century ago;
who aspires to the great art and science to
gain battles, and conquer realms and cm
pi res, must look to modern France; but
whoever wishes to know what it is to form a
government, the end of which is to mak™
happy itsinhabitanls, must behold tnc gu..
vernment o' the U. S. where men are equal,
and therefore truly free, and yet more so,
where they emjiy a tranquility' not to be
seen in any other nation; & nay, that teems
»» i( it were incompatible with that liberty
they possess. Who, therefore, will not a
gree that the laiter is lhat which ought to
be the model for a people just delivered
bom a barbarous and oppressive yoke?
Wiiat can be the aim of man unless Ins own
happiness? An end which justifies the re
volt of every oppressed people, and which
has demonstrated to us how tfTicacinus and
successful a nation may b- who seeks its
own liberty, in a manner suitable to courage
and wisdom Nay more, the analogy of its
past bondage witfi runs, it in them mere be
*ome circumstances of difference, they are
all in our favor, because yrc have been even
more oppressed than thev. The province of
Cantcca«. grows greater, the mote it istx.
a mined ; every thing then persuades us of
the absolute necessity to itnitS'e the exam*
pie of the N-irth Americans. Happy we
shall be, if superior to the paltry pitjudices
ot vanity, we obtain, by imi acton, in tiansfer
ring front this country to ours, its wise form
ot government and maxims o policy, and it
wr Can introduce here the regularity of man
uers we observe there, thus joining to the
ben g itv and beauty of our chmate, in which
w * certainly excel, the wisdom and utility
ot the p licv of that country ; then the twice
happy Venezuela will be envied even by
those we now tike for our models.
AC till)—I, H Giit akui n has the pleasure
to inform Ins patrons, and the parents and
guardians •:* youth in generd, thatthe Teachsa
’ftho LNGLlin BRANCHES, announced in
hi Provisory Notice, will be Mr Francis Power,
‘ gentleman recommended by European charac
ters of high respectability, to the venerable Dr.
John Carroll, Uishop of Baltimore, and whose
conduct and display of abilities, have uniformly
been such as to justify the ettlog cs of his friends.
In a letter to L. H Girardin, the R K Dr. Car
roll expresses himself, respecting Mr Power, in
the following terms :
“Mr Power is very respectably connected —
his manners and address are highly gentlemanly
Besides possessing the talents requisite for teach
ing the branches mentioned in your le’ter, hr has
respectable testimonials of his ability to give h s
snns in the classics, (Greek & Latin) and in the
Mathematics. In short, I do not think that vou
can find in America, a person better fitted for the
employment in respect both to character and abi -
lies One of Mr. Power’s qualifications is to speak
tbe French language, fitc ”
Very satisfactory specimens of Mr Power’s
penm mslep may be seen, upon application to L
H Girardin, by such parents and guardians, as
attach to that branch a peculiar value.
In consequence of the above, L. II Girardin'*,
establishment will from the first of September
next, stand on the following basis :
The Greek, Latin, French, and Italian lan
gu.iges, Geography, Civil and Natural History*
and, event daily, the Literary anil Moral cour«-» —

charge, acquire, at the Academy, the ornamental
arts such as Landscape, Figure & Flower Draw
ing, and Painting, together with Vocal and In
strumental Music The choice ot masters, for
Mins* branches, shall be entirely left to parents
an i guardians
It is contemplated, speedily, to print both tl*e
roles and the terms ; copies of the same, will be

that the rules shall nc rational and mild, yet, such

H. Girardin is convinced that they will be found
satisfactory, ntver hav ing observed a reluctance
on the part of parents and guardians to be just,
and even liberal, where abilities, zeal and sys
