MIRANDA'S EXPEDITION.

On this fubjea, we have been favored with
the perufal of feveral letters from Trinidad,
which implicitly cottradiet the extract publirh-
ed in our paper Of the 9th inf. One of thefe
letters, dated November Is, gives a more faA
tisfaetory, and, we believe, correct fatement
of the iituatien and profpeets of Miranda and
his a1ociate', than any other we have lately
Teen. From this we are permitted to extract the
following
General Miranda, arrived here on the 9th
infant, in the Melville floop of war from Bar
bados. From the prefent Rate of affairs, it is
probable he will remain :,ere fome time--at
leaft, till he hears the refult of fome dfpatches
were conveyed by the government fchooner
Pickle the return of which may be looked for
fome time in December. 1t i: ponble, howe
yer, the expedition may be again put 10 mott
on iooner than is now generally expected. This
idea is derived from the frong appearance of
leveral fecret expeditions preparing by the Brit
TN goverrment-one OF which, particularly,
appears to be defined agsinft the Wet.Indes.
II is the opinion of the mott refpeefable here,
that thoie troops are intended, either TO con.
quer the Caracas, or to cooperate immediate
ly III the plans of general Miranda. Which of
the two, little time will difcover. Had the
Engliih given him one or two regiments of re-
eular troops, in addition 10 the naval force en-
ployed in the attempt, it would have fa,ed
much trouble and expence, and general Miriam
da would without doubt, have been, at this
moment in full ponsfIion of that oppreGed
country. The Britifh have Through bad look
OUT permitted brig from Gsudaloupc to land
one hundred and eighty French folders at La
guira. A French frigate and two briggs few
days iince, arrived at Martinique with two hun.
dred folders. This is fAiJ 70 be part of fona-
dron from Rochefort, confifting originally of
s frigates & brigs, with two thoufand troops,
bound to Martinique; but intended, no doubt,
tor the Spanifh Main. The other frigates,
with 1900 troops, are reported to have been

tions -

ill5ed in TIE LaR Enquirer g.
The clerk having read the refolutions, Mr..
Elliot moved their. reference to committee Of
the whole on the fate of the union.
It was fuggefted that mott, If not all the
fobjetfs embraced by thefe refolutons. had been
already referred to committees appointed on the
feverai members of the Preident's meIlage,
and that confequently limiar reference to
other committees would, without any good
purpofe being attained, tend to complicate the
proceedings of the Houfe and qucaion of
order was raiied as to the regularity of commit
ting them.
The Speaker faid that as the refolutions,
though in fome refpeas iimilar to the fuhieds
already referred, in other refpeas varied from
them, he confidered the motion of reference in
order.
MIR. Elliot faid few words to the fame ef.
fe6f, and ftated his with to he afforded an op-
portunity on future day, fi,ould the refoluti-
ons be committed, of offering his fen,imrnts at
length OH the intercRing objects embraced BY
them.
On referring the refolutions to the committee
of the whole on the fate of the union, the
Houfe divided--only 80 members riiing in the
affirmative, the reference was difagreed to,
table.
The confederation of the bill prohibiting the
importation Of naves into the US. was refum-
ed in committee Of the whole-Mr. VAkNUm
in the chair
Mr.. Early moved to ftrike out that part of
tie bill which declares the importation of
pcrfons of color into the U. S. felony, and pun
lines it with death.
This motion was fupported by Menrs. Early
and Holland, and oppofed by MIR. Smile, and
agreed to--Ayes so-Noes 4.
Mr.. Bidwell renewed the motion formerly
offered by him, 70 to amend the bill as to pre-
vent the forfeiture of Perfons of color import.

with dispatches for the Britilh government.
which mutt, at all events, produce, in the
courfe of two months from this time, dsfini-
tive anfwer on the fnbieA of land forces. With
out thefe, he cannot fucceed. 1t is very evident,
that, however deirous the people of South-A-
merica may be to make off the yoke Of oppref-
zion under which they have labored for many
years, and join the ftandard of Miranda in the
caufe of liberty, yet they would con6der that
in the event Of his being obliged, for want of
fufficient land force, to leave that country fe-
cond time. they would bc compelled either to
abandon their property, and embark. with him,
or hazard the facriGce Of their lives, and the
confitcatios of their eta,es.- fh.fc are ferrous
considerations, which under imilar Circnm-
ftances, mutt naturally govern men in all coun.
tries. They chute rather to endure the evils of
opprefliop, than to rils their lives, and the
fuppott 80 which their wives and children have
been accutomed, Show them that the.e are
iecure, and they will embrace the proffered
freedom. 1t appears, therefore, That greater
land force is now required to ettabliih conf
dence with the people, than it was fuppofed
necefiary, or even proper, to employ in the early
ftage ofthe enterprise.

We underfand the governor received lalt
night, communication from the fecretary of

now on foot TO difturb the peace and tranquil
ty of the U. S. and more Especially that of the
wettern country, with a number of the pref
dents proclamations, ore of which we have in
ferted in this days paper.
1t mutt give incere pleafnre to the officers of
the general government, and to all the ftatcs
in the Union, to find the prompt and patriotic
efforts Of the government of Ohio, which have
taken place in order to detect and bring to coli
dign punifhment, every perion engaged in hof-
tile and unlawful attempts againH the peace of
the Union, and for arrelting every military pre-
paration that may be difcovered within, or even
paiing by its limits.
AS foon as the law of the general afTembly
pafled both houies, which clothes the governor
with unlimited powers, to enable him to act
with energy, and which was bottoned on his
confidential communication made to them,
Goth of which may be found in this days pa

Marietta, to arreR the Hotilla and the agents
employed in that quarter; and for fear it

there, and call out fuch part of the militia az

Happy for Ohio and the Union, that the le.

that Ohio can boat of as patriotic fet of re.
prefentatives as ever were attended in one
