REVOLUTION IN SOUTH AMERICA.

The Musette, %.4hich arriyeil esterday at Spit-

head from Curacoa, brought dispatches for Govern-

ment of a into iniport2nt tiature. They state,

that the whole of tad Inhabitants of the Caraccas

had. proclaimed . themselves independent; in con-

sequence of the sudden departure of the Juno,

and of the approach of the French to Seville. In

their proclama'ion of inilepeodence, the 'nimbi-

tants of the Caraccas have expressed in the strongest

language their delermined hatred to the French, and

their attachment to Great Britain, and their desire

to form an alliance with her.

We have received Dutch and French Pipers, the
former to the 17th, and the latter to the 14th inst.
The intelligence from Spain is upon the whole of a
satisfactory nature. It appears from the French ac •
counts, that the gallant inhabitants of Catalonia con-
tinue to makeltir most- astonishing etf►rts against
the French. The ebeckS and def.,ats..whiett
have at different times 'ustatued, so' fir frOm dtspi-

riting them, seems V.) have only inspired them with

new courage. Gent.ral AVGBR EAU, who expeqed
to have triumphed almost without resistance over
the undisciplined Rebels (as he called them) of Ca-
talonia, has, been frustr3le,l in all his efforts, and
has at length been rernoired from the command of
the army. General MACDONALD has been appoint-
ed to succeed him.

These papers state, that the British squadron
which was cruizing before Barcelona, having been
driven off by a storm, the French took the oppor-
tunity of throwing sotn- relief into that place.
Letters from Cons:antinople state, that nearly the
w hole of the subu►b of Perri has been burnt down.—
Ir was occasioned by the Janissatieg, who commit-
ted peat excesseS, but were at length disarmed by
the inhabitants.

The other intelligence contained in these Papers
is not very important. The Monitetir fives a 1-mg
ac, mint of the entertainment given by the City of
Paris to BUONAPARTE. The Ball given on that occa-
sion w+s opened by MAittA LoutsA, who danced a
quadrille with JEROME BUoNAPARTE, EUGENE BEAU-
HARNOTS, and Madame MURAT. One of the List em-
blems of Republicanism which remained at Paris
has.been removed. Under the clock of the Hotel
de Ville, (where the entertainment was given) was
the following inscription :—" Unity—the Indivisi-
bility of the Reptiblic—Lib,.rty, Equality, Crater-.
nity, or Death." And in front of the building was
the Cap of Liberty. The Inscription and .tlie Cap
of Liberty *ere visible on Sunday, when LIUONA=
PARTE went to the Hotel de Ville, and probably at-
trakSted his notice, for the next day they were re-
moired.

Government have received Dispatches from Cadiz
to the 4th inst. No event of any importance had
occurred, except that in a gale of wind two of the
Spanish prison-ships, the Castilla, of O 4 guns, and
a hulk with between 7 and 800 prisoners on board,
a great proportion of whom were Officers, part-
ed their cables and drifted on shore under the
French batteries. Our boats, in attempting to bring
them off, were fired• upon by the. prisoners, and a
Lieutena-tit and six seamen were killed, and about 30
woundcil. Upon this the fire from our vessels was

opened upon them ; great, numbers of the French
were killed and. the remainder escaped on shore,--
Both the ships were: 3e! fire to by shells tbrowa from

Our born-vessels, art htirnt.-=-Ane her t 'wish vO.--
sel with spec e on board to the amount of 250,0001.•
went on shore, but was got off by the exertions of the
British se:Ainen.

We .communicated some days ago to our Readers
an 'account. of the reduction of the Island of St.
• Maurd, and Dispatches arrived yesterday in con-.
firma:ion. of the fa& Brigadier-General OswALD
commanded the Expedition with true British spirit,
and recerv'ed all poseible support from the troops un-
der his command. Oar attacksirom batteries against
the Fortress' had been vigorous. for several days, and
at .length the Commandant sent out a flag of truce,
requiring a few hours to determine on tertns of capi-
tulation. He was informed that he must surrender
unconditionally, and half an, hour Was allowed for
his decision. He. declared that before he would
, •
yield to such terms he;, would bury himself under
the "ruins of the place, but just before the half hour
expired, thought proper to• surrender. There
,were 714 Frenchmen in the garrison, who are of
courSe prisoners of war. Our loss was one Subaltern
Officer, 2e rank and file, and Major C4AitK.E, of the
3 regiwent. Among the wounded Were two
Field Officers, seven-Captains, two Subalterns, and
130 met).

The following is a statement of the Troops which
were yesterday in London and its environs, stationed
in readiness to assist the Civil Power, should their
services have been found necessary.
