In my next anticipate shall have the please
ure to inform you of their entire possession
of Laguira, st. Martha, Maraycaibo, Sc. A
great number of Spauiards are here fearful
TO return. Some have gone TO Porto Rico
they are fully sanguiue of the final success
OF the patriots. We have report here 10
day, that General Moriilo has been killed in
an action recently fought-300G additional
atand Of arms have arrived at Augostura this
with what General Bolivar has in his posses

Gen. Devereux's legion ~ hourly expected,
which will bring farther supply of arms, am
mupition Sc. $500 900 have already been re-
ceived at Augostura. The grand army will
exceed $4,000 men. Commodore Daniels of the
patriot brig independents had captured We
ry valuable prize brig, and ordered her for
Margar but she was unfortunately taken
the day the royal squadron appeared off there
IN is reported her cargo was worth Sl00, 000.-
The above is all the news am in possession
ofrelative TO the patriots, since last wrote TO
you. You may calculate TO hear shortly some
very interesting news. here contin-

WHY does our government not aIthorise the

EXECUTION.

n
perpor;ne Hutton and Morris N. b. Hull
were hung Yesterday morning for the deli
b.ra,e murder OF John Heaps. driver OF the
u. S. mail, (they having robbed the mail
previous TO the commission OF the bloody
,leed.) The malefactors were led out from
tbe Jail between the hours Of ten and eleven
o'clock. attended TO the scaffold by the Rev.
MIR. Wyatt, of the Episcopal Church, the
Rev. Mr.. Osborne, of the Baptist Church.
and others. After the usual religious exer.
cises were performed--Hull addressed the
spectator. for a few minutes. He stated that
he had been brought up with every care by
MS father, and with proper regard for reli-
sious duty. Bad company, however. and
those improprieties, which are generally
deemed excusable in young men, connected
with the iatteriDg thoaght that when older
there would be sufficient time for repen'
tance-these had been the causes which LED
him to the commission OF a crime for which
heswas about 10 suffer death. He then con-
cluded by fervently recommending himself
10 the mercy of the Redeemer
This, as far as memory serves, was tue
substance of hrs address. Hutton said no.
yhing--he appeared to be employed in sim
csre and silent prayer during the whole Pc
Rod. The conduct of both to the lasi--bat
Hutton evidently discovered a far greater
degree Of becoming sensibiliiy than his COM
MON. AT halt past eleven the platform sunk
under their feet. exhibiting in their persons
the ignominious and fatal consequences
which must ever attend the peTpetration OF
mail robbery and murder. They were ex-
ecuted on the same scafold erected tor the
pirates, Denny and Ferguson.
