of despolism which enslave the liberties of

until he had received cannondle from its
soIdiery. On the 18th, Aury. al the head
OF l40 renegadoes, proceeded to the town
OF St. Philip, distance of thirty miles,
which he reached very early on The sue
ceeding morning. As soon as he was des-
Efied, brisk fire was opened on him from
the battery, OF 8, II, 10. and "a pound
ers, with small arms, which, however, lid
little or no mischief. When Alry's band
had reached within few yards o! the land
ing place, they commenced firing, and
shortly afterwa ards established a footing ON
shore, at which time considerable con-
sternation ensued, and from the state OF
discipline oihe Spaniards in that quarter,
the robbers obtained possession Of the two
forts, as well as of the town, without much
trouble. Ripe tor plumber, they proceed
ed 80 miles up the Gulph of Dulce to the
village of Isabella, which they took bysur-
prise.
1" The plumber made during the above
operations, consistedof cochineal, indigo,
balsams, and boxes OF money. They al
forwards made an attack upon a schooner
and two sIoops. which they captured, the
former had on board 10000 dollars, and
upwards of Zoo boxes OF indigo. 1t is sta
ted that Aury having some qualms of con-
science, respecting robbing of churches,
took away from some of bis banditti, par
Gel of plate, garments. &c. belonging to
places of worship, and delivered them up
to an old Spanish woman, who had been
unfortunately wounded during the fray.
" Aury had returned to Old Providence
TO divide the booty, and it was expected it
would all lie sold, in the course Of next
month, and then that each robber would
have his proportion.
Since the above was written, we learn
that Aury appeared off Old IIarbor, on sa-
turday in the briganline Congress, and COM
municated with this City, in order TO make
known his proceedings, during his maraud-
ing expedition.
"All accounts concur in the necessity Of
depressing these buccanneering expeditions
fitted out by English subjects against the
Royalists of South America. We are hap.
py TO find that the Foreign Enlistment Bill
is likely to pass the British Legislature. 1t
is measure of the wisest policy, and will
we hope, be convincing proof to the
Spaniards that the British Government are
averse TO their subjects being engaged in
such contest. To assist in giving South
America freedom is the ostensibIe reason
held out by the parliians of The cause (; but
plumber is the sole object OF every person
who is engaged in it"
" Aury, we believe, is a kind of indie
pendent Marauder, acting generally for
himself alone, though occasionally assist
ing VI Oregon, the sANscULoTTE hero, who
commenced his career in the notable eX-
petition of General Miranda, agarns, Coro,
in the Caracas. Aury appears TO be We
ry cool, calculating adyenurer; for he ia
vors MGreg"r only when there is a fair
prospect of success.
