LONDON:
lIIONDAT ITINI:40, M•T 15, 1920.

New York pipers arrived this morning to doe 41st
of
Sr. THOMAlefs, Mann 29.—From Angostura we
received very flattering mews as late as the td instant.
Two friends of mine have arrived here from thence,
anti from them hare learned as follows, which you may
rely on :—The army of Apure consists of 7,000 men,
not entirely armed, hut ere this will be completely
se, antler the comm .ad of Piet. The army of restive,
at Cucuta, commanded by General Urdaneta, mouses
to 5,04° elective men.
In the province of ettmana the forces amount to
1,500 men, un'lrr lien. Bermudez, who has been ap-
pointed Captain-General of tivasitia and Barcelona ;
head-quarters at blaturin. There are other small di-
visions near St. Diego of 300 men, and at Qnebrada
&Ada. is the province of Car era, hum 6 to 7,000
more aver Oen •ral Zarara. General Bolivar mar. bed
from Apure the 23th January, and his operations
are known to sone but those who are to execute
them; it is certain that his plans a.e grand, and
were to be supuented by the 15tH of this mouth.--
Ben. Unianta's army attacks Maraibo and St. Mather,
of whose surer.% we hourly expect to hear. Three
tholsand muskets were dispatched from Angostura
to Bolivar, previou4 to the departure of my friend
from Margaret's. We learn that the expedition bad
sailed, consisting of 1,000 rata. Dr. Zea is here, a• d
proceeds about the middle of April, on an embassy to
the United States.

Peeled the Bill reported on Friday for auttorising a
loan of two millions of dolls's, is not less interesting
loan any document of the present Congress; it pre-
%ems a view of the state of the l'reasnry of the public
rrrentie made for the service of the year 1820. The
balance of income at the end of the last year, it ap-
pears, after paying all expeaces, was 767,960 dollars.
he ravens for the year 1920, including the last item,
are estimated at 22,626,685 dollars.
Tin Taater.—Votes talsen in considering, at the
puss. &slims, an alteration in the existing Tariff
of duties, which quesllen embraces the expediency of
gratifies further protection to domestic manufactures
—yeas, 71; nays, 96. So it was agreed, by a ma-
jority of 2i., to take up the Bill to regulate the duties
on import; and the manufaftering interest are vi-
tally concerned on the question of a revision of the
arli Tariff. Though only a trifling increase is intended
is be added, generally, to the pretest daties, yet the
duties in cotton and woollen rods are pro! owed to he
inrreased to nearly the rate of 25, and in some instances
33. 1. 3. per gent. The Bill was twice read on the
22ti ult., and committed to the Committee of Menu-
fsettpes.
