DISCOVERY AID HISTORY.

" The coast of this country was originally dis-
covered by Columbus in 1498, during his third
expedition. Several adventurers succeeding in
exploratory voyages on this part of the Continent,
the Spanish Government came to the determina-
tion of endeavouring to place Colonic's on its soil.
These being chiefly ill-conducted, and managed
by priests unacquainted with the manners kind
CLlturns of the natives, did not succeed, and it
was found necessary to , endeavour to subdue the
inhabitants by force. When this was partially
effected, and Spanish settlers were placed in some
security, the management of the new Colonies
was entrusted to the care of the IVelsers, a Ger-
man mercantile company. These people exer-
cised, tot a length of time, an uncontrolled sway
over the unfortunate Indians and the Colonists.
Their excess of punishment and their traad be-
coming at last notorious, the King of Spain de-
prived them of their power, in 1550, and ap-
pointed an officer of the crown to administer jus-
tice to the oppressed.
" This office, under the title of Captain-Gene-
ral of the Caraccas, has subsisted ever since, and
with some few variations in the territorial divi-
sions, and some abridgments of the authority of
the person who fills it,- it existed in the same
form, until the year 1810. At this period, the
Mother Country, subdued in part by the victo-
rious arms of the French nation, had no time to
attend to the situation of her transatlantic Colo-

Engaged in a destructive and terrible
struggle herself, she little knew of the events
which were taking place in the Americas, or if
she did know them, was unable to assist those
subjects devoted to her cause, or to quell the in.
Jul gent and ambitious. Taking advantage of die
shackled state of the resources of Spain, the dis-
atl'ected raised the standard of rebellion, and
formed a Junta Suprema (a Congress, or Stipreme
Council) in Caraccas. At first they published
their acts in the name of Ferdinand the Seventh ;
but soon, however, on the arrival of Miranda
with seine troops, declared themselves indepen-
dent of the Mother Country, and appointed Mi-
randa to the Chief Command. Spain now placed
their ports in a state of nominal blockade.
" They lia,e since been daily engaged in hos-
tile measures, and Junta has succeeded to Junta,
Royal Power to insurgent Government, and vice
versa, with little interval, up to the present mo-
ment. The Caraccas may indeed be styled the
locus of the Spanish Alnerican Revolution. Nu-
merous and bloody actions have taken place he-
t weer the Spanish troops and the Caraccanians,
Miranda has been beheaded, and the Captain-
Gillet al has reinstated himself,
" Doti Simon Bolivar, a native of the coun-
try, possessing much property and considerable
intlience, has been the great leader of this re-
vol', styling himself President and Commander in
Chief of the United Provinces of Venezuela. Ob-
taining from the Congress of a neighbouring State
(New Granada) an army of 600 men, he marched
ag,aitist Monteverde, the Captain-General who
had beheaded Miranda and punished his Col-
leagues, anti meeting with few obstacles to sur-
mount, entered the city of Caraccas as conqueror,
on the 4th August, 1813. The Captain-General
fled, and refusing to treat with the Insurgents,
•-tti derogatory to the honour of the master he re-
esented, remained quiet until he received from
spaiu a !claw-cement of 1200 men ; he then at-
tacked the city, but was repulsed with the loss of
nearly his whole army, and himself severely
wonnmhol. in discussing the historical facts re-
kiting to South America in general, we have en-
tered more at large upon this subject. At present

SOUTH AMERICA.
By the brig Robet t Neilson, arrived from Tri-
nidad, we have received letters to Ist Augn,t,
though not so late by two days as -those we pre-
viously had from the same quarter. They do not
cootain ans./ thing new in a military point of view;
indeed the campaign in Venezuela is for the pre-
sent suspended, owing to the rainy season.
Letters from Gnsyana, of 15th July, state, that
General Paez had gained another victory over
Morales, adding, that the latter is placed in a po-
sition from which he is not likely to escape. The
.Spanish Chief La Torre lay desperately wounded
with two lance wounds teceiveil in the battle of
Cogede.
From the Corroo del Orinoco of 11th July, and
received. by the same opportunity, we give the
following decree :
Simon Bolivar, Supreme Chief of the Republic of Venezuela,
&c. Ste. SLc.
Considering that in our present military attitude, the sepa-
ration of the military and political branches of the Govern-
ment, established by Decree of 6th Oct. 1817, gives rise to
embarrassments and difficulties greatly prejudicial to the
public cause, I have been induced to decree, and hereby do
decree as follows:
Article 1. The political Governors of Provinces shall exer-
cise no other functions than those of presiding in Tribunals
of the first instance, conformably to the Decree of 6th Octo-
ber, 1817.
Art. 2. The High and Municipal Police of the Provinces
shall henceforward belong to the Governors and Command-
ants-General of the same.
Art. 3. As heads of the Police in the Provinces, the Go-
vernors and Commandants-General shall be Presidents of the
Municipalities; they shall convoke and preside over the
assemblies of the inhabitants, and receive in their suffrages as
well as ,those of the electors, conformably to the regulations
of the 6th of October, 1817, respecting the creation of
Municipalities.
Art. 4. The Governors and Military Commanders of for-
tresses, cities or towns, shall therein exercise the functions
of the Police, as Lieutenants of the Governor and Comman-
dant-General of the Province.
Art. 5. All the laws, decrees and regulations which may
attribute to the Political Governors of Provinces the exer-
cise of the Police, any otherwise than as laid down in the
above articles, are abrogated and remain null and without
effect.
Given and signed by my hand, and countersigned by one of
the Secretaries, head-quarters, Angostura July 3, 1818.

THE QUEEN.
_. .

" Kew, Eight o'Clock, Oct. 7.
" Last night, her Majesty was much better than.
she was on the preceding one ; her cough was less
troublesome than it had been for some days, and
she enjoyed a long, and apparently refreshing
sleep.—Sir Henry Halford and the Princesses re-
tired soon after eleven o'clock.
" Throughout the day, her Majesty remained,
if any thing, a little better ; but the improve-
ment was so slight as to be almost imperceptible.
She was removed from her bed-chamber, rather
earlier than usual, and at a late hour, this even-
ing, she had not manifested any particular degree
of weariness, or complained of any of her former
symptoms.
" The Princesses pursue their improvements in
the plantations with ardour. Their Royal High-
nessea
were on the lawn this morning, in the
midst of the workmen, before half-past nine
o'clock. and again at intervals throughout the
whole day. Their Royal Highnesses were chiefly
attended by General Taylor, and occasionally by
one or other of the Physicians.
" The Countess of Cardigan, and several others
of the Nubility, paid their dutiful respects at the
Palace, in the course of the forenoon.
" At four o'clock, his Royal Highness the Duke
of York alighted from his curricle in the court of
time Palace, and about half-past five the Prince
Regent arrived from Carlton-House. The Phy•
sicians immediately waited on his Royal High-
ness with their Report of the state of her Majes-
ty's health up to the moment of his arrival. His
Royal Highness then joined the Duke of York
and time Princesses in the drawing-room, and
shortly afterwards the Royal Duke left the Pa-
lace on his return to London. After his depar-
ture the Prince visited her Majesty, and bad a
long conference with her Physicians, at the close
of which Sir Henry Halford set out for Windsor
Castle, the Health of the Princess Sophia conti-
nuing in a very precarious state.
" At a few minutes before seven o'clock, his
Royal Highness the Prince Regent took leave of
his illustrious sisters, and returned to Carlton-
House.

" Sir Francis Milman is something better than
he was last night.
" Sir Henry Halford bad a narrow escape from
serious injmy, atter his return from Windsor, on
Tuesday attetnoon, whilst riding on horseback in
the neighbourhood of Kew. The animal was
young and spirited, and by a sudden plunge threw
Sir Henry with considerable violence upon the
pummel of the saddle. The pain occasioned by
the concussion was so great, that, for several hours
some serious injury was apprehended."

[Morning Post.]
MANCHESTER WEAVERS.
The Manchester Weavers have sent some depu-
ties to town to apply to the different Benefit So-
cities existing among the lower orders, and obtain
some contributions for their relief. The petition
addressed to these bodies is of very great length,
as it contains a detailed statement of their
grievances and of their wants. We have reason
to believe that their applications have generally
been successful, and that the two delegates who
are more particularly entrusted with this service,
will not leave the metropolis without having rais-
d a pretty considerable sulo.

[The Times.]
We insert an extract of a letter from Columbo,
dated 2tith April, received since our last :
" The disturbances iu the interior are as yet
unquelled ; the Governor remains in Candy, laid
up with the gout ; however, if it does not attack
his right hand, he will still continue as useful as
ever. We are getting three native regiments front
the coast ; two have already arrived, the 71h sad
15th ; the 18th is daily expected at Galle. 1f we
are worsted, it will not be for want of troops.—
The rains areljust commencing; this is the only
thing to be feared by the Europeans. If they
only keep their health, next season will, I hope,
settle the business in our favour Bills on Eng-
land 'list sale sold as low as 14 rix dot. 8 1., 11.

THE QuERN.—The following is the Bulletin
which was issued this day :

" KEW PALACE, OCT. 8.
" The QUEEN has had a good night. Her MA-
JESTY remains in the same state as yesterday.
(Signed) " F. MILMAN."

Last night and this morning we received the
Paris Papers of Sunday and Monday last. We
give some extracts from the former in another
column. The accounts in them from Aix-la-
Chapelle are not so late as the details already
published here. M. Pozzo DI BORGO set out
from Paris for Aix-la-Chapelle o.► Sunday last.—
The Emperor of RUSSIA and the King of SAXONY
had a long interview at Leipsic, on the 22d ult.
The following are extracts from the Journals of
Monday

PARIS, OCT. s.—Yesterday the King re-
ceived the Neapolitan and Spanish Ambassadors,
the Ministers, Marshals, &c.

" Count Pozzo di Borg°, the Russian Ambas-
sador, had an audience of leave of the King on
Saturday. His Excellency set out last night for
Aix-la • Chapelle. .

" The Marquis de Bonnay, French Minister
Plenipotentiary to the Prussian Court, sets out
to morrow for Berlin, but is to stay some days at
Aix-la-Chapelle.
" The Journal de Frankfort states, that the
Empress Consort of Russia was expected in that
city on the 2d inst.
" Letters from Italy continue to announce a
most abundant harvest.

HAMBURGH, SEPT. 26.—Our commerce is at
present in a very languid state, the only articles
in demand are provisions to be exported to

England.
" AUGSBURG, SEPT. 26.—The‘King of Bavaria
has issued an Ordonnance, directing an entire re-
vision of all the Laws relating to Agriculture,
with a view to their amelioration.

" BRUSSELS, OCT. 1.--. The Queen of Sweden,
travelling under the name of the Countess de
Baker, arrived here the day before yesterday with
a very numerous suite from Spa, and set out yes-
terday on her way to Paris.
VIENNA, SEPT. 24.—We learn from Lisbon,
that twelve Austrian vessels laden with grain had
arrived there from Trieste. Portugal is suffering
under a scarcity, and our speculators make the
most of it.

" DRESDEN, SEPT. 25.—The fanatic Cloos,
the founder of the sect which signalized its origin
in the environs of Leipsic, by murder and human
sacrifices, is still in prison, but scarcely any thing
transpires respecting his interrogatory. His parti-
sans continue to act in secret, but are narrowly
watched by. the Authorities. Inquiry is conti-
nued as to every thing that relates to this sect,
but the Government declines giving any publicity
to the result, and it has prohibited the circulation
of a small pamphlet, published at Leipsic, the ob-
ject of which was to expose the sectarists and
their conduct. The Government has also sent an
intimation to all booksellers and printers to pub-
lish nothing on the subject."

This morning we received New York Papers to
the lith ult. The following are extracts :

(From The Commercial Advertiser of the 10114.)

" The following Indorsement was made on the
papers of the American schooner Betsey, lately sent

to Halifax by Admiral MILNE, in consequence of
her being found fibbing on the coast at Nova

Scotia :---

" It is hereby notified, that it is the earnest desire of Rear-
Admiral Sir David Milne, Commander-in-Chief of his Ma-
jesty's Ships and Vessels in North America and on the Lakes
of Canada, in endeavouring to preserve the maritime rights
of his Majesty from infringement, to avoid as much as pos-
sible subjecting the vessels and people of the United States
of America, engaged in the fishery, to any loss or interception,
to which they have made themselves liable by the infringe-
ment of the just rights which belong to the maritime domi-
nions of his Majesty in North America.

" You are therefore allowe,: to pursue your voyage with-
out further detention, taiug notice how%:ver, that if you arc

again found trespassing on his Majesty's rights, 10 caulitittav
expect to receive further indulgence ; and you are rete; sr
to notify to the vessels of your nation, as far a 5 .--,:lce
power, to avoid interfering with those fisheries, wiliciii-h-cre

to corifirar the truth of our intelligence.: Vre, therefore, as-
len h increasing confidence, and the Nation may, we trust,
adopt with improved assurance, the tidings conveyed in our
'1414141 01 ye,lerday
Allied , that the evacuation of France by the
troops has been agreed upon by the Sovereigns' at
dispatched to Paris as the bearer of so agreeable a deterinina-
ti". To a result so important we have at present but little
tO. add- The loan, which is of 515,000,000, is to be paid by
aloe monthly instalments."
The same Paper, adverting to the subject, says,
that the importance of the communication " al-
Most Wakes it tremble for its authenticity." The
intbject is, indeed, of the utmost importance to
all P.inror,e,
I, and perhaps every friend to its peace
aAiednd security may " almost tremble," it the
Potentates have, upon so short a de-
ii6eratinn, come to a sudden determination to
tintsent to the immediate removal of their Armies.
14.thay be urged that there had been full and
%%pie discussions on the subject before the Sove-
Zeigns were assembled, and that nothing might
required but their united consent. But sure)
men
:eti the Meeting, unless for subsequent amuse-
Z—e", Was unnecessary, as the assent might as
ell have been given by delegation, as the subject
dibchtsed in that manner.—But tse shall wait for
41.11,0 I of more certain intelligence, and in the
irs " tittle we trust that our Readers will not be
liiPosed to Place a hasty confidence in any intel-
isgehee.that may be given upon a subject which
'l2oii

particularly for stock-jobbing pia-
not perhaps of the Journals in which

FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, OCT. 4.—Yesterday the King transacte,
business with the Minister of the Interior.

We bare received the following details respect-
ing the late troubles in Norway, from a traveller
arrived directly from Christiania:—

" The nation is in general extremely dissatisfied with the
mode of Government, (but not at all with the King), and par-
ticularly with the, present Sturthing, because its imposts are
exorbitant, and levied with a rigour hitherto unknown. We
have already spoken of the insurrection of the peasants, who
advanced against Christiawia, but who were put down by the
troops. lii another part of the same province the pea-
sants also rose en mass, with the intention of proceed-
ing to Christiania ; but they were diverted from tha
project by a respectable Curate, who, though agreeing
with them in opinion, assured them that the Stoilhing
was already dissolved. As his statement was not how-
ever afterwards confirmed, the Curate had nearly become the
victim of his patriotism. In the most remote parts of the
country the inhabitants had been called upon by messengers
to form a general assemblage on the Ist of this month, under
the threat of being hanged at their own doors if they failed.
But the measures of the magistrates have been of a nature to
avert this meeting, which might have been attended with
fatal consequences. At the same time the seeds of discontent
are every where propagated to such an extent, that the Go-
vernment is compelled to employ the must prudent precau-
tions."

Accounts from Frankfort state, that. the mili-
tary organization of Germany is only delayed' by
the difficulties of classing the contingents of each
member of the Confederation. It appears decided
that only the Powers which furnish the strongest
cant ingeuts will, in time of war, hare the supreme
command of divisions. It is said that it is pro-
posed to make the kingdoms of the Netherlands
and Denmark members of the Confederation for
the whole of their force, instead of being admitted
only for thel. German provinces. This would
simplify the system of defence, and give the COD.*
federation maritime forces.
It is announced that M. Pozz di Borgo will
leave Paris to-morrow for Aix-la-Cuapelle.
We learn from Rome that Count Portalis has
frequent conferences with the Cardival Secretary
of State.

On the 26th of last month, Captain Travot
presented a petition to his Majesty, soliciting the
liberty of his father, Lieutenant-General Travot.
MM. Biot and Arago, Members of the Insti-
tute and the Bureau of Longitude, are gone to
Dunkirk, where they intend, in concert with se-
veral English philosophers, to terminate their as-
tronomical observations for the measure of the

earth;
Eight fine Arabian horses and three mares have
been landed at Marseilles, and forwarded to Arles.
The Government has purchased them for the pur-
pose of improving the breed of French horses.
The Chevalier Waltershoff, son of the Danish
Minister, is to set out on Monday, for Madrid, to
present to his Catholic Majesty the Grand Order
of the Elephant, conferred upon him by the King
of Denmark.
Letters from Italy announce that great improve-
ments have been made at Naples, in the organiza-
tion and internal administration of the Island of
Sicily. Orders have been given for the construc-
tion of roads to cross the Island in every direc-
tion, and sums are appropriated for defraying
the expense.
