turned into port yesterday, not having been able to
fall in with that vessel, although she went as far as

Briton spoke a brig, and learnt that Rear-Admiral
liarvey, in the Antelope, was lying in Kingston har-
bour.— Off the East End, on Wednesday last. the

JCNE 3.—Caracas Gazettes reached us yesterday
afternoon, to the 15th instant, but atlas late an hour
for a translation of the extracts we have made from
them to appear in the Dutch language. Ia these
papers the usual Spanish policy is displayed, not the
slightest notice being taken of Bolivar's expedition, as
if such a circumstance were in no degare interesting
to the people of that country.
On the 18th of April Lieutenant-Colonel Jacot was
4--aleet for Wes treason, io the Plaza de Capuchiaos

from Cadiz, and those of Granada and the Infant

however, at Margarita, as well as any other forc6s
arriving in South America, is case their aervites
might be required.
The Gazette of Ist May contains the official letter
of Colonel Calzada to Gencrak Morino, dated Pie de
Cuesta, 25th February. According to which, three

pletely routed the patriots under Ricaurte, Santander,
idadrid, and the sambo Arevalo, killing upwards of
one thousand men, including 40 officers, wounding

besides two guns, four stand of colours, 750 muskets,
ammunition, cattle, &c. falling into his bands, and
all this with the loss only of 150 veterans killed and
wounded.
The latest Gazette contains nothing of interest, un-
less it be the arrival of Morales with his grenadiers
at Maracaybo, where transports were preparing to
cirry them to Windward, and the Editor adds...." alki

his march towards these provinces, so soon as be
should receive advice of the occupation of the city of
