The following official documents relating to the
recapture of Corn, and the operations of the Colom-
bian army against Porto Cabello, are translated from
I:te Venezuelian papers.
CARACCAS, Arett 29.—The main body of the
Republican army, under the command of Colonel
Pinango, took up their march on the Ist inst. and
established their quarters in Jame on the 9th.—
Pinango, with 400 light infantry and 40 cavalry,
occupied Curarnebceon the 11th, without Opposition.
He returned to Jacma on the 13th, to direct the
movements of the rest of his army, who began their
march on that day, and were to have entered Coro
oa thc 15th.
Colonel Vegas, who has been reinforced by 600
volunteers, commanded by Gen. Torellas, has been
directed to move onwards to the Pedregal, to divert
the attention of the enemy in that direction.
Col. Haas with the column of Zulia, will operate
in the rear of the enemy, and three other detach-
ments will spread themselves along the deserts be.
tween Carigua and the ports of Attagracia.
Morales will move against Colonel Pinango; he
will leave a part of his army to cope with Colonel
Beres. Should he come towards Coro with [the
smallest part' tif his force, thinking that we only
intend to divert him from Maracaibo with the 400
men who oocupy Cunistritie, he will most assuredly
be cut to 'ems. Sh he move with the main
body of troops, thiforps of Zulia and Pedregal
will des . any force remaining us a rear guard,
and wil oa
.his vex.
Our operations 4ave been heretofore fortunate,
and promiiezemplete
The enAirlehaving no vessels to transport his
troops into Popo Cabello, will not seek the coast
where we are blockading the division in Maracaibo,
and we shall possibly txterminate the ferocious enemy
• tifttodt 'thinquitltty and happiness.
Subsequent to the foregoing, Captain Burns has
arrived with despatches, giving an account of the
battle fought at Chiparo on the 17th instant, which
states that Col. Pinango, with his division, brought
the enemy, exceeding 500 men, commanded by Cul.
Tello, to close action, and gained a complete victory
over them, taking two officers and eighty men pri-
soners, with 130 muskets, &c. be-hies killing and
wounding a very great number. Colonel Tell° and
Commandant Arbuthnot, with only twenty men es-
caped ; they were closely pursued. Our loss was
comparatively trifling —This places Coro and La
Vela in the possession of the patriots—will • oblige
General Morales to come to a general actitet, with
every probability of its terminating in our favonr ;
it flees Maracaibo from the apprehension of an in-
vader, and enables Colonel Hems to operate en the
vanguard of the enemy the moment it is put in
motion
SIEGE OT PORTO CABELLO BY THE PATRIOTS.
By a bulletin, dated at general quarters in Borbu-
rata, the 12th of April, it appears that the Patriot
Commander.in-Chief was actively engaged in recon-
noitering the enemy, and adopting the must judici-
ous plans fir his annoyance.
The general was cutting off every possible supple,
inve:ting several adjacent towns and positions with
his troops, and keeping a naval force on the coast to
intercept all communication with the royalists.
A second bulletin, dated at the same quarters, on
the 28d of April, states, in continuation, that the
operations of the patriots are very active, and fa-
vourable—occasional skirmishing taking place, and
considerable numbers of the inhabitants of the coun-
try and neighbouring villages flying to their lines
for protection.

FRENCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.

PLTERSBUROII, MAY 31.—The Imperial Guards
have received orders to return to the capital. It
appears, therefore, certain, that the differences be-
tween our Court and the Porte are arranged, the
I):rte has yielded the two principal points of our
Ultimatum; as to the others our Court has made
sow cone, siions. If war had taken place, the cam-
paigircould nut have been opened before the harvest,
and it would have cost immense sums in a devastated
country,
