Pito LAMATION of his Excellency the President Libehador,

to the Inhabitants of the PrOvince of Caraccas.

Simon Bolivar, President Libertador.Of the. Republic of Co-
lumbia, &c.
The troubles you have just experienced, by the general emi.
gration following the Spanish anus, have filled me with afflic-
tion. Your flying, and the total abandonment of your proper-
ties, could not be a spontaneous work, it could be only that of a
panic terror, either of the Columbian or Spanish arms.
Royalists !—You ought to rely on the regulations for the war,
and on the politics of the present day, which start from those
times, in which the genius of crime had arrived at its highest
pitch, in overwhelming the feelings of the human heart; Roy-
alists, return to your homes.
Caraquenians !—Your emigration is a manifest offence to the.
Spanish Government, which you think to flatter. Your fears,
with respect to the arms of the King in terrible re-action, are
not now well founded ; because the Spanish Chiefs are Generals
La Torre and Correa, not Soaves and Morales.
Caraquenians know you to he Patriots, and you have
abandoned Caraccas ; but could you with good faith fly from the
arms of Columbia ? No, no, no. --

Inhabitants of the Province of Caraccas !—Do not outrage
foreign Governments ; live tranquilly in your own houses
count upon the improvement of tne Spanish
.Government, and
our religiously fuhilling the contract which we celebrated in
BOLIVAR.

General Bead-quarters in San Carlos,
3d June, 1321.

Charles Soublette, .General of the division of the Armies of
Colombia, Vice-President of Venezuela, • &c.
In :virgle of the superior order of his Excellency the President
Libertailor of the Republic, I have decreed, and do decree, the
following
1. The City of Caraccas will be the capital of the Depart-
ment of Venezuela.

2. The High Court of Justice of the Department,
,the Pro-
curator-General of the Republic, the Director-General of the
Treasury, the Chief of the General Staff of the Department,
and the Secretary-General of the Vice-Presidency, will, with
all possible speed, be removed to the City of Caraccas, with all
their archives, papers, and documents, belonging to their re-
spective officers.
3. The Court of Admiralty established in the island' of
Margarita will be removed, with its archives, to. the port of
Guayana.
4. The Commandant-General of the Province of Guayana,
and the Director-General of the Treasury, will give the neces-
sary assistance for the execution of the first article, and that
this Decree be communicated to - them, and to all those whom
it concerns.

Given in the Palace of the Vice-Presidency, in the city of
Caraccas, the 6th of July, 1321. • C. SOUBLETTE.

OFFICIAL. INTELLIGENCE.

After the gloriOus victory of Carabobo, the enemy sent out
two detachments from Puerto Cabello ; one under command
of Lieutenant-Colonel Ramos, and the other under Colonel
Alejos, to raise the spirit of revolution among the inhabitants of
the Plains, but lately liberated.' A division of vessels, with
troops on board, was also destined to La Vela de Coro, in order
to divert the attention of the Liberating Army : still it is not
easily understood in what the hope of the enemy was founded,
whether in so doing its object. was to dhninish the consumption
at Puerto Cabello, by sending out troops,- immaterially where,
in search of either food or an unprofitable death.
his Excellency the Liberator, the better to facilitate his
operations, and to place the inhabitants of the Plains in' sefety
from the grasp of the guerilla parties of the enemy, who can
injure but the husbandman and the citizen, divided the western
section of this country into two military departments—the one,
embracing the provinces of Coro, Maracaybo, Merida, and
Truxillo, was placed under command of his Excellency General
Marino ; and the othca, comprehending those of Caraccas and
Barinas, under his Excellency General Paez. The line of
Puerto Cabello, included in these two divisions, is defended bj,
three battalions of infantry and two battalions of cavalry.
A battalion of infantry and a regiment of cavalry are posted
at Calabozo, a squadron at San Carlos, and a kattalion in the
city of Auraure.
Having learned by the late accounts from Colonel Escalono,
that the expedition arrived at Coro from Puerto Cabello does
not exceed 40. men, Colonel Breceno, with 1000 men, was de-
t.:zhed from Carom to join Colonel Gomez's column, and ano-
ther column of 500 men, which sets off through Calgna, and
with these forces to meet the enemy and liberate this province,
while his Excellency General Marino remains at Carora with
two battalions of reserve, to repair where duty may call him.
II is Excellency was at San Carlos on the lltn, and continued
his mardi the next -day, in order to give fresh impulse to the
martial operations.
- • The remainder of our cavalry is returned. to the other side of
the Apure, there to await the orders of its chiefs, whenever the
defence of the country may render its services necessary, whereby
it gives to the world the greatest example of a warm patriotism.
Covered with laurels in the fields of Carabobo, these Llaneros,
the first prop of the Republic, and its constant defenders, re-
turn to their homes ready, however, at the first call of the na-
tion, to repair a thousand times again with strength and lives
to ie scenes of action.

From Puerto cabello,.the desertion of men to our line is so
considerable that unless better means be adopted, La Torre
--ad Morales, the two chiefs, will remain there all alone.
The districts of Barcelona, Cumana, and :Margarita, are like-
wise. organised. into military departments, under command of
General Bermudez, after his late glorious campaign ; all the
bodies of troops which are on their march to reinforce his divi-
sion, remain under his immediate orders.
The troops of Urane, under Col. Terrealba, having closed the
campaign, returned to their cantons to resume their occupations,
and will come to their military duties whenever required. Gen
Monegas, who,-with the Barcelona cavalry and that of the Up-
per Plains of Ca,raccas, penetrated as far as the Sombrero to
participate in the general achievements, received orders to post
himself at Barcelona, and to disband the individuals of his di-
vision, thanking them for their services. They are equally
ready to return to action as soon as they are called.
The siege of Cumana is set fo:th with vigour; we expect
shortly to hear of the triumphal entry of General Bermudez into
that city. •
