This morning we received Mexican, Carthagena, and
Dutch mails, from which the following are extracts:

BOGOTA, Amin 10.

The reports of the speedy arrival of General Bolivar,
which were current last week, we tegeet to state are um.
founded. They are said to have originated with an
officer, who some months ago left Peru, and had been
ordered here to be tried by a Court NartiaL for some
breach of duty. He is new under arrest, and an enquiry
will shortly be instituted into his conduct, to ascertain
his reasons for spreading this false intelligence, which
has, besides occasioning considerable expense to the
country, been a source of keen disappointment to the
population of this city and its environs, who had shewn

'every anxiety to testify the pleasure they felt at behold.
ins their Liberator once more amongst them.
SEPT. 7.—The scandalous s&nes which not mfr.-
quentii ensue in consequence of the blihd and perse-
cuting zeal of several Ecclesiastics, who- are tither really
ignorant, or pretend to be so, of the obligation of their
ministry, would reflect no little discredit on Colombia,
in the eyes of Foreign States, were it not easy to per-
ceive that it is not the work of the enlightened and
influential portion of the population of the Republic,
but of a handful of men who, obstinately adhering to
their prejudices, are bent on hindering the progress of
knowledge amongst us. Something similar to what we,
are now speaking of took place at Mompoz on the
evening of the 20th of July last, when a citizen of the
United States of America being commanded to kneel
down by a Clergyman who was conducting the }lost,
and not having obeyed, from ignorance of the language
in which the order was conveyed to him, was compel-
led to do so by blows and personal violence, performed
in pursuance of the directions of the Clergyman, by the
soldiers who were escorting him. No explanation was
1 iven for the insult offered, nor could the unfortunate
eteigner ascertain the reason of this outrage. By this
the personal siecurity of the individual has been violated,
who rested his protection on that safety which is expli-
citly guaranteed by the laws of the Republic. We
therefore trust that it will receive such due inquiry from
the proper authorities as may prevent its repetition, to
the manifest injury of our character, and the interest of
the nation.
