ISLAND OF MARGARITA

8U1.1.E IJN, No. I.

ON THE LIBERATING ARMS OF MARGARITA, DATED
JCLI 13.

Again Spanish carnage has commenced in the
Isl..nd of Margarita. On the 14th instant Morillo
appeared in the Port of Guaniache with 22 sail. As
s.on as our watch towers had signalled his arrival,
ow Commander in Cliuf, Don Francisco li%tevan
Gomez, ordered Major-General Maneyro to march
to.. ads the leeward coast to check the erienty. Thit
intrepid Chief, with 400 inf.-may and 150 1..0rw, sus
rained a rigorous attack ;tic tasted tow hours with
such efft ct dist he forced the enemy to !flirt to the
slu•re wit:omt being able to reconn•iitre the field of
battle, eluting two hours, notwillistaiidir:g he had•
WOO men, whilst in the mean time out party in-
trenched themselves in Cuicas and Banco Largo.
This battle, as well contended As the most distin-
guished of Venezuela, spread the grra•rat terror and
alarm among the Spaniards; and their beadier, who
imagined he was about to repeat some of his former
exploits, sent in a Bag of truce on the 17th pr,,n.iso,g
to the people of Margarita all those benefits which
Ito Spaniard is capieble 4•t realising to an Amer:can,
however he might be attached to him. Au answer
was written on the same day, but it appears no one
dared come in to receive it.

In the Above glorious action we lost Lieutenant
Felix Goiisalez, Ensign Miguel Sorocha, of the in-
fantry, aria Lieutenant Neuiencio Stulaver, of the
cavalty. The Conimander of the latter, Colonel Cc-
lestino Tubores, was also wounded. Ot our troops
we had seven killed and twenty wounded. Our sol.
diers fought in their usual style. The Sp iniards trem-
bled till they again found themselves in safety, and'
their number of killed and w•unded was considera-
ble, according to the informatios, Me received trout
deserters, tt.oogh on the field 4..1 battle we only found
stet:auto soldiers and one °dicer.

Alter the enemy had remained stationary in his po-
sitions for two days, the Major General thought it'
advisable to withdraw two leagues into the centre of
the valley of San Juan, with a view to induce the
enemy to loilow our army, is order that we might
give him battle on the great plains where the cavalry
WO, be able to act, but fear made him range along
the hills, and he did not slieN himself in the open
country. lit consequente of his evasion and our not
having attained our object, the Commander-in-Chief
assembled a Council of War, and it was therein re-
solved that the whole army should withdraw to the
line of the Caraynay and the town of San Juan, in or
der that our cavalry might not suffer, and with a,
view also to remove the enemy from his vessels, in
the mean time that our resources increased, whilst we,
thus forced lam to seek us out in our advantageousi
positions. The army of Margarita, being situated
on the Caraynay, that of the enemy, protected by Sill
vessels, marched along the southern coast. • At the!
cross or Gaud lie inid a rencontre with our cavalry,'
as well as on his entrance into Pot la Mar, with a di-
vision under Colonel Luis Gomez, who commanded'
in that point. The latter sustained itself till its com-
mander was wounded, and then retired to the city in
1400 d order. Alter the enemy had possessed himself
of the ruins of the above town, lie penetrated by the
valley of Espiritu Santo, where some skirmishes took
place, and our people then evacuated that point.
As in the Council of War ;it was resolved to de-
stroy and abandon the fortress of Pawpaw, but',
rime was wanting to carry our determination into el-
feet ; when the garrison saw itself attacked on the;
24th by the whole or Morillo's fence; it did not de-1
fend itself with earnestness and wiled to the capital
the same day.
