9, 1911.
There has been great eonvulsion since
the declaration OF independence The friends
of the Spanish government rose in one day
at Valencia and Carrsccas. At the latter
place, they seized upon the quarters of the
veterans, but were overpowercd by the ci,i-
zens rushing TO arms and attacking them
some were executed, amongst whom one Of
fered an immence sum for his life. AT Va
lencia it was more serious. The number Of
Europeans at that place enabled item to op-
pose very respectable force ; and Gen. Mi
randa, With 5000 men, marched to qucll
them. They made gallant resistance, in
which they lost or 500 men, and the Car
raccassians as many but Valencia was taken
by storm, and burnt or destroyed. The boo
ty made was immcnee. They have also la
ken, or rather destroyed, privateer pierced
for 10, but mounting ! 3 guns.

saidas she really had but one partridge, unless
they agreed to eat together, there was no
way to content them but ifyou will take my
advice, added she, do without it tonight, and
tomorrow morning, he who had the finest
dream shall be entitled to it; in the mean
time you may make an excellent repast on
mutton and salad. The plan was agreed to;
the parties supped and went to bed. The

The Spaniard passed the night in fabrisating
