sition of twelve months, Mr. ^|dam Lindsay, in
the {>2d year of his age:
We tearo, that general Armstrong has written to
i^tbe secretary of state, that Buonaparte has offered
to restore Ferdinand to the Spanish tbrooe, provid
ed he will accept it as a grant from himself, and
consent that the country between the Pyrenees and
the Ebro Shall remain to France. Both these con
ditions, we presume, will he rejected : the first as
dishonourable, end the second not onlv on account
of its curtailing the kingdom of several brave and
Industrious provinces, but because it will leave the
vfojfujllij withoutasafe frontier on the side of Fiance.

R» fire masters, and indeed every classW our
citizens, deserve the highest prais? for their great
and unremitted exertions, and the labor which they
sustained for nearly 24 hours. *
The fire rnmpany of axe-men, composed of har.
dy and active citizens, were of infinite sendee on
this awful occasion, in pulling down houses, fences,
&IM) which contributed greatly to circumscribe the
extent of the conflagration.
The-wficers of the artillery are entitled to high
conrmeudation for their intrepidity and their success
in blowing up ^ie several houses that wete deemed
necessary.
A strong detachment of cavalry and infantry,
mounted guard, on Monday night to watch over the
security of the city.
Great and well-grounded complaints are made by
the citizens against those idle and useless men and
boys, wbo, during the raging of tire fire, when the
scene should rouse the most indolent disposition, are
in the habit of approaching it, mhornback, to the
great danger of those active citizens who are exert
ing themselves in defence of the lives and property
of their fellow-creatures. We do not know whether
there is an ordinance on this apjiject, if there is it
should he rigidly enforced by tilt military who are
on duty ; and if not, it is essentially necessary that
this practise should he prohibited by law.
1’he bones of a female were yesterday disrovered
among the ruins of Union street. Several persons
received injury in pulling down the booses, fences,
&c. but wa have not heard of any that are severely
wnunura*
The lost of property rannot, as yet, be accurate
ly ascertained, but it U supposed that it will not be
less than Arr/f'a wri/Aon »r dollars. The number of
houses which were burnt and blown op, are about
two hundred and fifty.
None of the newspapers were published yester
day, as all the paper-offices were exposed to danger,
andlheir materials very much deranged and injured.
Wad and meat were yesterday distributed among
the poor sufferers, and subscriptions set on foot for
their relief. -
A large proportion of the houses destroyed were
either owned or occupied by persons in the humbler
walks ot life, many of whom have been deprived,
by this awful calamity, of their little all. We sin
cerely hope, and earnestly entreat, that those who
are blessed by providence, with more than their
common wants require, will^ienernasly come for
ward and relieve those who have been deprived of
both house and home and the means of immediately
supporting their families, by the most dreadful of all
visitations, and thereby enable them to rejoice in
the happiness of being members of a benevolent and
feeling community.
The following are the number of dwelling houses
■fronting on the several streets which were destroy
ed during the conflagration :

LATEST FROM CART HAG ENA.
Captain Dowson, who arrived here on Saturday
fram Carthageua, reports, that disturbances had •-!
risen in the interior of the Spanish South Ameri
ca provinces, the details of iphieh he was unac
quainted with. Capt. D. says that a report prevail,
edpt Carthagena, that a partial battle had taken
place Between the revolutionists of Santa Fe and the
“ Mexicans, wbrt were repulsed by the for
mer. This must-be incorrect, as the distance be
tween Grenada, of which Santa Fe de Bogota is the
capital, and Mexico, is too great to suppose such an
event probable. We are inclined to believe gtbai
the engagement 190k place between the forces un
der the direction of the governor of the Maracaibo
district, who are reported to have been fornished
with powder and money by the viceroy of Mexico,
and the revolutionists, as Maracaibo and New Gre
nada are ronugiout to each other. We have been
promised papers from Santa Fe de Bogota—should
they contain articles of interest they will be given in

Captain Shearman, arrived last evening in the,
$ch r Caroline, 39 days from Lisbon which he left
Sept. 5, informs that there had been no general en
gagement between the armiee—that -Almeida had
surrendered, 25th Aug. without resistance, and that
the Portuguese lost six men by the blowiug op of a
Oiagaziue which they ascribul tb the treachery o{
«heir commander. This iillt must be income* as

It is an ioc
testible froth, in the actual revolt^
tion of this kingdom, however much miserable ego
lists may affect to deny it, that the wishes of the
people preceded Die different changes ifle govern
ments underwent.*;. The Spirit stemed In be iirspir
ed,
si
nnion, unifutaiity of sentiment, and roit||r
in measuies siflanalogoiis as those which have
mil
1^1
baen adopted by the'Jtrovinoes, from which we have
,,r»i^tion ol their having already
receivt d official iuUir
considered the cha
iraCler they ought to sustain in
the present state ol things. At such immense dis-1
lances from one another^ they performed the prodi
gy ol erecting the samAt system of government,
which may preset ve the " representation and confi
dence of the people,, with the same ideas of uniting
in a common center the legal representation, and!
even wilh the same names rad styfe. Not only
Santa Fe, Carthagena, El sbforro, Santa Marta,
andTunja, have installed theffrespective Juntas of
government, but the same thiAbus been done in
ihe illustrious city of Pamplon*' On the 4th of
July last, through the general wish and impulse of
the people of Pamplona which, although surrounded
on all sides by unavoidable embarrassments oppos
ed to jt by the most running and perfidious nolirv.
never would nave been terrified by &e
Je arms of the
cruel oppressor!) of America, its itffilal
elation would
have been celebrated ; but prudence wnich caused
the bravery of the people to be retained on this
occasion, delayed that act till a better opportunity.
In this siluaflhn was the city of Pamplona, «h#h
the events ofthecity of Socorro came to its know
ledge ; that city was one of the first supports which
was prepared to resist all foreign aggression, and if
neressary to attack the enemies of American liber
ty. Animated evny moment by the neighbouring
places, at Hfrgtb on the 31st July at 6 in the even
ing, it was about to erect the only body which could
save it, when a great portion of the people being
collected in tile Hal), destined for that pur
pose, an express whs received, which commpni-^
rated the news of what had taken place at Sauta~
Fe. Then, without opposition, without violence, an
innumerable conrourse of people of every class and
denomination being collected together, that congress
was installed in the presence of the respectable i
mage of our legitimate sovereign. It was acknow
ledged by the corps, chiefs and officers of balallion
of the militia, and thfe most submissive obedience
was sworn to it. Thus the province of Pamplona
has succeeded in giving itself a paternal and juftt
government, which, by wi^hiog over its interests,
may preserve to the cilieeos their liberty against
the abuse of arbitrary power. Our government
has received the most satisfactory offers of frater
nity, union and alliance, which ought to draw more
together, if possible, the indissoluble bands, which
unite us with that province for our happiness and
mntual support. .

As soon as the official advice was received innw
city, by express, of the installation of the Supreme
Junta of this ptovince, and a summons to elect de
puties torepiesent that assembly and its distiietand
to be their delegates, a proclamation was publish
ed, calling a public assembly to ebuse them. Ac
cordingly next day it was done in the presence of
the principal persons of the clergy, nobility and
people of that city, and the depatirs declared they
would immediately proceed hither and join the Su
preme .Innta, associating as delegates in the im
portant labors it has in view for the common bene
ntul the people.
Smits. Aug. 22.
By the Courier extraordinary, dispatched hence
fpr that city, it was learnt' with the greatest p*a
plea*
sure,that the Supreme Junta' of this province had
been installed and that its Cahtldos would partake
in the exercise of its authority. That of Simiti
full of enthusiasm at an event, which et regards as
the origin of its felicity, immediately communica
ted the happy occurrence to the people, by procla
mation, announcing that in token of joy, thestieets
should be illuminated for three successive nights,
that every class might indulge in lawful diversions,
that a solemn Tc Deum should he sung in thunks to
the Almighty, and that the citizens should wear the
following device upon a white band, “ Religion,
Country, and King" The people being assembled
on the 25th for the election of their* representative,
,tbe choice fell liy a majority of votes upon D. Ce
cilio Antonio Perez, the Provincial Alcatda Mayor,
who swore faithfully to execute the charge confer
red upon him for the welfare ol bis country.. * i

Its assembly, in conjunction with the people,
has appointed for representative, of the rights of that
district in the Supreme junto of that province,
D. Jose Antonio Madariago, , As soon as the news
arrived there uf the erection of thia body, through'
the officers who rommnnicated it by express, the
