We this day lay before our Readers farther ac-
ccuelts fmns South America. By the former Spanish
37coants, Moaitto was reported to have so com-
pletely defeated the Independent Army under Bola-
TIR, on the 17th of February, that but little chance
-.7:15 left to them of being ever able to rally: but by
t...r accounts before us, it appears that they must
kept the field; for again we find MORILLO, on
ttelgth and 16th of March, (a month after he had
Vow destroyed the Insurgents) congratulating him-
elf and the inhabitants of Caraccas on having again
dcreatcd and destroyed them. .

Though we are not inclined to give credit to these
:counts to the extent of their statements, we think
tegremely probable that Mostato has gained some
advantages over BOLIVAR ; but to what extent we
=not know till we shall have received the Bulletins
of the Independents : for we have hitherto always
lend the Royalist accounts greatly exaggerated, and
cites entirely unfounded. We should be grieved in-
timd were the cause of the Independents entirely to
LI; and that not merely on account of the injuries
tie- have so long sustained from the rule of Old
Spain, but fat our own sakes, as members of a great,
kee crumercial community, who have nothing to
lope fur from any succeses that can attend the arms
of FERDINAND, but every thing to dread !
There is not a country in the world that promises
rs many commercial benefits to Britain as South
America—were her independence but once effected ;
wad provided we do nothing, in the mean time, to
by a foundation for future prejudices in the minds
r the inhabitants. We consider those who would
counteract the efforts of the South Americans as be-
rtted, and blind to the real interests of England.—
What benefits can we ever receive from Spain? Have
we ever received any? On the contrary, has she not
always been inimical to our commercial prosperity,
and even ungrateful for benefits conferred on her?
Can the part she took in the war which established
dle independence of the United States be ever for-
tntten b.) this country? Ought it to be ever forgotten?

The Paris Papers of Monday arrived this forenoon.l
We learn from them that Colonel FREDERICKS, Aid-
de-tamp of the Grand Duke NICHOLAS, arrived at
Berlin on the Bth instant with the agreeable intelli-
fence of the Grand Duchess 4.l2.2zAtcnnat having
t::71 happily delivered of a Grand Duke on the 29th
month. Her Serene Highness, as well as the
• Prince, are both doing well.—Prince TALLEY.
t, v has left Paris for his state of Valensay.

A Mail from Flanders arrived this morning.
It tangs nothing worthy of notice, if we may
erupt a letter of thanks from the KING of PrwsstAt
to a certain Commune on the Moselle, called Katzen-
post, for refusing to join in the Remonstrance which
'2 City and District of Coblentz lately made to his
ariesty, respecting the breach of his solemn promise
!o give them a free Representative Constitution. The
;topic of Katzenpost aforesaid have been pleased, in
as address to his Majesty to declare, that they feel
"happy in the present order of things." His Majesty
riswers, that "such a declaration is at all times
ray rare"—that he has heard it with pleasure—and
snot help expressing his great satisfaction at the
'good spirit' which they have displayed on the occa-
sion. Miserable people to be the objects of so de-
grading a compliment !

The departure of the Prince and Princess of HESSE
4c)lLLac, which had been positively fixed for Mon-
a7.-.ex:, is now indefinitely postponed.
Mmday the Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE,
