New York Papers arrived this morning to the 11th of
August.
Extract of a Letter from St. Thomas, rial July:—
" The news from Laguira is, that the Itoyalilts ham
evacuated St. Carlos and fell back on Pallineirs, the
head-trailers of Morino. General Bolivar Was at Cala

was expected be would order him Jo be shot. The people
of Caraceas were anxious to see General Bolivar, sot
they write confidently that his arrival there may be
hourly expected.
NEW YORK, Atc. 6.—Papers have been in circulation
in this city fur several days, that a malignant fever
existed at Philadelphia, which has indnced our Board
of Health to dispatch Dr. Dychanan to ascertain the
true state of the case.

We received this morning Paris papers of Wetl-
nesilay. They contain two Oriloonances of the litso
the first of which decrees the dissolution of the Na-
tional Guani of Brest, for " having refused to obey
the orders of the MAYOR, when legally summoned to
quell the tumults which have taken place In dation.
esperially on the evening of the 17th inst. whes the
authority of the Magistrates was set at defiance, awl
several of that corps took part in the riot, which it less
their duty to assist in repressing." The s-coad
ordonnatice supersedes M. LAFOND LADEBAT, SO.
Prefect of the district of itrest ; and appoints SI

A striking symptom of the deelinine contidoare
the Qmsen's accusers in the evidence tliev mhlueri,
has appeared in the increased exertions of their lin,
racy egrets. A mercenary journal that had ased

within these few days entirely renonneed its strecie4
easloar, and entered the lists as a most violeat pe;-
tiun. Another that had from the couneencernent of

p.ssrectlings been' distinguished above its fellows for

chan,,ed the more formidable. tone of it!.

thattcriag the lowest language of scurrility.
Let anv one but read the columns of the ~arm Times
di...Worming Poet, and he svill be convinced they
hoe undergone a 'willow/ ollerh:i,h, theinolt not a re-
4,,,hofitrer. It is impossible for the parties to coo-
eol from themseli es the failure of the ev idenre to
otablish a eve against the Qt.crx ; but they labour to
„offal their convictions from their readers. If any
~.multi &obi their disposition to elisonise opinions,
1.141 m only observe their misre:oescutations of facts.
It has Wu the constant labour of n.. 'sin., Post
„:„.6,111, in conjunction with The Cgs', to repre-
,eut the rause of the QUEEN as sin!sing dry by
dm jail the estimation of her 31area ry proportion-
alit in the minds of the people. Those who have
Lai is opportunity of c paring their descrip-
tions with the occurrences that actually happen,
o• fouling their accounts of her declining popu-
i„iic, and of h.aring the en•h s'artic cheers with
,he bas been continually received, will be
at t:t loss lii assign the eleoree of confidence due to
roertions, bow muck soeser they may be to ac-
ciao t far their assurance. It had been observed by
six Of BONAP.MTE's opponents, and repeated often as
a reppiach by these writers themselves, that the Ex-
Emperor of France Walt not disposed to hesitate about
the circulation of a falsehood, ashen it served his pur-
rose, though it lasted but an hour. The use of these
temporary expedients, however, has not been banished
by the ill fateil Bimetal, but like every French inven-
tion, it has been improved by English imitators.
These falsehoods cannot indeed retain an hour's credit
in London : but they may last a week, by circulation
in tit contory. It appears a matter of surprise, we Cud
fr Im the Editors of Provincial prints, how such contra-
dictory s atemeots as they are led to read, can
appear to issue from the Lindon press. They
bad it as difficult to determine the popularity of the
Q.:Lts, as to decide upon her conduct towards Ber-
trand. By thus distorting truth, the work of preju-
dice is promoted through the country, and prepara-
utaile for the admission of even perjury itself.
Well did her 31 trEsTv observe, in the admirable
lett r noticed yesterday, that her adversaries might
" remott their charge avid' an impre,vol artifice, more
t: directed, and with a malice inflamed, rather
t ian abated, hy their disappointment." These fire-
b tlinos hare unfortnnately been fulfilled to the very
letter. Infinite industry. infinite address, and infinite
eapence have been employ:4l in arranging the attempt
now iu action against her. All that money could effect
akuad, has been obtained ha procuring reisleece and
all that money can effect at lionse in giving that
evidence credence, is instantly produced. Bat after
all how inadequate is the wont compared with the ar
pirates ; how weak the impres-1..0 on the public mind
compared with the efforts made to prepossess it.
The remembrance of the false and malicious statements
made I. Lally lkwitt.t.i, and of the depositions of the
wititesse s who were examined in support of that
former thane can n ,ver be forgotten. Much aunt
infinitely more than has been advanced by the wit-
nesses bronoht forward in the present case, would we
venture t • affirm, have beets necessary to convince the
I.eiiitle that the present charges hail any better foun-
dation or source than the former. But that impression
which they derived from inference, is now about to be
confirmed by the disclosure of facts.

At length the hmte is arrived When we can con-
gratulate the country on the fulfilment of our expec-
tations. The curtain is drawn—the mask" are re-
moved—and the two principal actors in this national
Drama are exhibited to the world in their real colour',
Signor Non ;Ili Ricurde, and Mademoiselle Je ne me

rnpellr• a..
" ! Sore a pair there ne'er was seen, ‘o justly formed
to meet Its• nation•."

It is curious to observe, what various ways pro-
♦idence is pleased to dispense its favours. Hut, perhaps
the greatest of all ►venders is the wo►►derful capacity
with which these high gifted individuals are endowed.
It would altmoq ..eent as if their memorie► were formed
for this ter}• °erasion. Quick and precise, and
accnra•e to a when any thing against the
Q :EEN 14 asked ; but the very moment the slightest
favourable hire. rotatory is put to them, a thick
and cloudy tiiu► itnniedintelv covers their intellectual
vision. But all will not do ; truth may be for a while
concealed, but it must ultimately triumph. The edifice
-must totter, where the foundation is weak. Awl an
odious system founded in bribery and corrnption, cannot
long exist. Such must be the fate of that Green
Bag system, with the very name of which all that
is revolting to the feelings of Englishmen is as-
aoelated. The two great pillars, upon which mainly
depends its support, have already lost their centre, and
we have no hesitation in propitecying, that before mas►yr
days elapse, that stupendous piece of architecture will
crumble into ruins. Time only can tell whether its
.odious contrivers shall be crushed in its fall.
