Mr. EDITOR—Give me leave, in one of your
columns, to convey to the Printers of the. Italian
Song Books distributed at the Opera, intimation
of my belief that the Public would concur in my
willingness to dispense with the fine superfloii y
of margin which those books always display. in
exchange for a little more clearness in the small
" rivulet of text" that runs through the middle.
The Wonders which occur in almost every sen-
tence of the book put into my hands last
night, at the " New Musical Fund," are really
unpardonable. The following errors (which arc:,
but a small selection) may, to be sure, he cor-
rected by a little conjecture ; but they are soffi-
ciently big to occasion a very unpleasant dead stop
in one's progress—" di pigliarmi una bells sposnza
(,posioa, I suppose)—"_ mi fa Palma guibilar"
(giubilar)—" vermiglio doinesco (donuesco)
101.7—" foseo (losco) ed osclitu"—,‘ di 100bia
(rabbia) d'hiedia," &c. In reading one's native
language a small omission or tiau3position,
a ..number of letters,- to w:tose combination the
eye is familiar, seldom creates any difficulty;
but- the case Of those ►who read a foreign LW..
gunge (at-least of those who, like myself, are not
very .an fuit) is widely -different. They who scud
forth these publications will do themselves some
credit by soliciting some friend to take fire mi-
tittles' trouble in revising the press.
Your obedient Servant,

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.

[Morning Chronicle.]

As far as we have been able to judge of the 'mi-
litary movements -iii-V-enezuela from voluminous
details before appears that General Murillo,
after uniting the corps of Lt Torre, Morales, and
Calzader, amounting ;to '5OOO. passel! the
Appre on the 25th of January.- Geueral -Bolivar
was anxious to draw the enemy into the interior,,
and ordered his infantry to take post behind the
Arauca River, and the cavalry under Paez to ha-
rass ,his On. the sth of February Morillo
passed the Arauca, the inhabitants every where
burning their dwellings to prevent his obt
shelter. Morillo, finding his supplies cut off,
pushed forward six hundred cavalry to collect
cattle. They tell into an ambuscade of Paez's
troops, and were all taken. This, we suppose,
is the action referredd-to in the American Papers,
With some features of exaggeration. Morillo was
by his advance situate in a complete wilderness,
without resources, more than 500 miles from
Caracas, and Paez with superior cavalry in his
rear. Five hundred British volunteers in the
,George Canning, Tartar, and PerseVerance, had
arrived at Angostura, and with them General 80.
ilivar would proceed to the Apisre,. On the At-
junticcoast, which Morillo.bad left bare of troops,
ran
la attack teas expected from Margarita, protected
by a large naval armament, and. with combined
:British and native troops. This would place
,Morillo in -an awkward situation. Commodore
•Joli was cruising off St..Bartlioloinew's and Porto
tßicco. All the dispatches announcing the death
4A the Queen of Spain, aro the views_of the Cadiz
expedition, fell into the hands of the Patriots, by
:the capture of the brig of war from Cadiz to Rio
Janeiro. A 400 p of, war; front Margarita
is daily expected in England. A steam-boat has
bien established from Trinidad -to Angostura.

Letters from Frankfort .of the'2oth April posi-
tively sta'e• that M. Stourdza was. destined to ex-
perience the same fate as Kotzebue, but that he
escaped. Notwithstanding the strictness of the
imesligations to. which Sand has been subjected,
he has refused to reveal his secret, if indeed he
possesses any secret. to reveal. The Grand Duke
of Hesse Darmstadt, in answer to a petition very
strongly worded, has promised to grant a Consti•
tution to his Duchy .on the Ist of May, after seve-
ral evasive and equivocal replies. Nothing has
yet .been settled between Baden and Bavaria. The
Frankfort Fair is very bad. English manufactored
goods vet y cheap, and in small quantity. Wool
declinivg in price, and plenty of bankruptcies.—
