New YORK, Nov. 25. l"Ttorler, of
the schooner Pha'be, from C ,
- in South
America, has assured us, that 1 -lief only the de.
claration of indepetntence of Quito was certain,
and that the troops , were marching from every
quarter to suppress it, bet that he himself ha seen
troops in readiness for proceeding there. Suds an
- indifference, however, was apparent on the part of
the troops, that they seemed wore induced to sup.
port the cause of their countrymen, than disposed
to subdue them. This revolution its the province
of Quito appears to be a shark which will extort)
rapidly over the whole Continent of South Ame-
rica, and, in the present circumstances, is the only
means by which that country can be rescned from
the dominion of Bonaparte.

place of his future residence; perhaps the conti-
guity of that city to the sea, and thereby affording
the opportunities of a correspondence with Nova
Scotia, or an elopement by night, may have been
the cause of the selection.. The numbers of per.
sons disaffected to the government being very nu-
merous there, may be an additional motive ; for
certainly no other class of people in this country
will associate with such a character, or give him
countenance. —( Aurora.)

ing auy of the pieces of timber with which his pas-
sage was incommoded. The poor animal, when
he found himself among the locking glasses and
chairs, trembled excessively ; but he was got down
