We have the pleasure to announce the safe arrival
of the convoy from the Bihic, which took its dept.
titre ill the `2':d ult. The other is expected every hour,
and no apprehension is entertained for its safety, al-
Ithough it sailed two days before.
A most desperate attack was.made npon the above •
convoy by the Danish gunboats, notwithstanding it ;
was protected by seven ships of the line. They came
out of port to the number of 130, on the discovery of
which, signal was made to collect the ships,which stood
onward with five sail of the line, suffering no s-rious
molestation. In the mean while, the Cease and Mena
men of war, of 74. guns each, attended by a sloop,
rushed into the midst of the armed Danishvessels, :mil
commenced an engagement, during which a heavy ,
firing on both sides was witnessed by the ships in the
wake of the convoy, and the result we understand to
b:., that the Bluish ships of war v. ere damaged in a
veil slight degree, and that 'shout 30 of the enemy'.
gun boats, with their crews, went down.
The transports with lead and gun-powder, destined
to a port of Russia, have returned with the convoy,
and with their cargoes untouched. .
Sit e..lay night, some French prisoners attempted to
make their escape from one of the prison-ships in H.- .
!amaze; but the centinels being on the alert, fired
several shots, and secured the whole of them.
Notwithstanding the Declaration of absolute and
unqualified independence, by the people of Venezuela,
'there is reason to apprehend din there yet remain
many seeds of disunion and weakness, which are likely
to disappoint their expectations, or impede their de- 1,.
signs. Our accounts from thence (vie United States)
reach to the 10th July. The following is an extract
I
from a private letter :—" General Mir soda is now a
Member of Congress, elected by a town almost tin.
heard of before in Barcelona. The eyes of all Ct.
raccas are fixed upon his motives, and it can by no
1 means be said that he possesses the confidence of his
fellow-citizens. You have heard long since of the i
' failure of what seems to me the unprovoked attack
upon Coro. The little Corien army are in their re.
turn the attackers, and have actually arrived to within
ninety leagues of this c mita!, at a place called San
Felipe, whilst the equally wanton aggressions on the i
i people of Guyana has pre yoked them to send foraging
part:es to within a league or two of the route of my
excursion into the interior. Harassed thus oa both •
sides, one is surprised that no impatience nor alarm
seems visible in the Patriots. Nothing but people
with urilotnis are to be seen is our streets; yet tl.ey
hear of the near approach of the enemy with the ut- •
most tranquillity, nor evince the least wish to march
and disturb their operations. In these times, whet
unanimity seems so absolutely necessary fur the pre.
servation of their new Government, the principal cities
and provinces seem desirous of humbling the capital,
i and forming independent States of their own. 'l'h.••
city of Valencia has publicly, in the Gazette and its
!Congress, claimed to be one of four independent dis-
tricts, into which she affirms the province of Caraecas
I (in its most confined eense) should be divided, and
thus are the seeds of present and future dissentione
already sown. This matter is still debating in Con-
gress." .
MAtte-rase.—This day there are several fre h Ar-
rivals of Wheat, but the quantities on hand Lot very,
considerable ; fine supports Monday's prices, ordinaty
heavy sale—Barley in tolerable supply, and nearly at
the last currency—White Peas brisk sal% and fully at
i the bite advance--Grey, and Beans of the two kinds, .
' at little fluctuation —Torre are likewise several tryst'
l arrivals of Oats, bet from the demand this trade is
quoted nearly at last prices—Flour without variation.
