HOSTILITIES with NEW GRANADA.

LATEST ACCOUNTS.
(From the Hampshire Telegraph of Saturday.)
• By the Jamaica papers, which have reached us to the 30t11
January, we find that in consequence of the Government of
' New Granada having refused to make restitution to Mr. Rus-
sell, our Consul at Carthagena, for the insult offered to him
by confining him in the common prison, for having wounded a
person in self-defence, Commodore Sir J. S. Peyton, on the
9th January, issued a proclamation, declaring the whole coast
of New Granada in a state of blockade, and sailed for that coast,
from Port Royal, on the 12th, in the Madagascar frigate, ac-
companied by the Wasp sloop of war, to enforce his determi-
nation. Our Minister at Bogota had demanded the immediate
release and reinstatement of Mr. Russell, a sum of 5,000 dol-
lars to be.paid to him as a compensation, and the disfitissal of all
the functionaries who had acted so illegally towards him.
The Granadians, it appears, had dispatched a force of three
small vessels of war and 300 men, and had driven away from a
settlement, called Buccotoro, about 150 Englishmen. This
was considered a very outrageous affair, as Buccotoro was no
part of the Granadian territory. The people of Jamaica arc
urging reprisals by taking possession of all atat part of the
Isthmus of Darien which belongs to the Granadians, and not
relinquishing it until arrangements are made for the immediate
prosecution of a plan long in agitation—that of cutting a ship
communication between the Pacific and the Atlantic. New
Granada having thought proper to provoke a war, the honour
of England demands that she should pay a penalty, and that
penalty ought to be to the advantage of the commerce of
England. Commodore Peyton was followed on the 20th by
the Nimrod, 20, and on the 22d by the Forte, 44, Commodore
Pell, and the Champion, 18. These latter vessels had arrived
at Jamaica the preceding day ' - the Forte, with 350,000 dol-
lars, from Vera Clad, and the Champion from a cruise. The
Echo steamer arrived at Jamaica, in 53 days, from Falmouth,
on the 22d July, having on board, as passengers, Commander
Belcher and Messrs. Owen and Robinson, on their' way to
join the Sulphur surveying vessel, in the Pacific. The Cham-
pion captured, off Cuba, in December, a Portuguese schooner,
with 203 slaves on board, who were all landed at Honduras.
The Racehorse, 18, sailed from Jamaica on the 29th for Car-
thagena, to join Commodore Peyton. The Wanderer, 18,
-Thunder, surveying vessel, and Alban steamer, were left at
Port Royal. The Ilarpy had been sent to Bermuda.
