The Baltimore Patriot of September I, gives the
extract of a letter from a Gentleman of
veracity in Curacoa, dated the 18th ultimo,:
" By the Chilanian, who, h is asserted, hai departed
from Margaretta for vur port, from that scarce you
must have been informed circumstantially, of the in•
staflation of the Government in Cariaco. r 1 confi-
dential friend, who Arrived here from St. Thomas's
the list of this month, mentions, that the day before
his sailing the schooner of Manegro had ;Arrived tht•re
with the family of Colonel Vafuo (Caravanian)
and others, who stated to him the hollowing :
That they sailed from Margaretta in company with
the squadron of Brion, composed of nine large vessels
and 15 smaller ones, for Guayana, which is affirnitd
from every quarter to be taken by the Republicans.
That on board of the same were the Nlembers of the.
Government which had been established ill Cari4cn,
and all the Caraquanian families who were.in that
place,
,a great quantity of ammunition, stores/
and that the Margaritanians were resolved to defend
the Island until the last of them should be sacrificed,
as in Barcelona, if attacked.

a The above mentioned schooner not being able to
beat to windward, the rest of the squadron touched
at St. Thomas's. The Bishop of Panama, a Canon,
and a Judge of the Court, who came in the expedi.
tion lately arrived, entered t!.is port on the 6:h inst.
from La Guayra. The Bishop, a Canon, and a Judge
of the Court, stated to some of their friends here,
that the action referred to WAS very bloody, and that
night only was what decided the combat, and both
armies rcireattd being equally destroyed ; and that of
the Battalion of Dragoons lately arrived, 400 of them
were wounded in the action."

PIIVSSIA.—In Lowenberg, a town in Slesia where
several Sloilisayers and Miracle•mongers drive a
great trade, a remarkable piece of deception, pi ac-
tised by an Inn-keeper at Royn, near I.iegnitz, of
the name of Richter, has just been discovered.—
Some time ago, a young person of 17 years of age,
wandering about the country, was received into the
house for the reception of such people, as were per-
fectly deaf and dumb, and kept there for about six
week.; He could write Very well and he wrote down
the following account P.." that he had been educated
in the Institution for the Deaf and Dumb at Dresden ;
that he there dreamed what there was a man of GOD
between Liegnitz and Breslau, who could heal him,
and that he had on that account left the Institutinr_
and come on a pilgrimage to Silesia." As if by acci.
dent the healing Apostle Richter appeared within the
walls of Lowenberg on the 7th August, touched 'the
dumb prison in the house of the Burger-master ; hi:
immediately f.aljibited symptoms of convulsion and
4
distortioo.,eid..e.n the third day he began 41.1 of 'a
soddentiame* stud le the Swabean Dialect w praise
the happiness, apd, power of his SAVIOUR. ;The
credulous shouted joy, and were full of the miracle;
but the Burger-Master of the place and a few sensible
persons took him to task, and he then confessed with
tears that he had never been deal and dumb in his life.
He has been delivered over to judicial investigation,
and there is no doubt of his being iu an understand-
ing with the still greater impostor the wonderful
Doctor, as he is called, who has also been brought
before the tribunal.
