stroyed, and that he, in fit of despe-

been killed in the action. Intrigues

Caracas, June 6, 1922.
By accounts circulated to-day, we are
informed that the Spanish frIgate Lii
gera, and brig of war Hercules, have
anchored off the Castle of Porto Ca
bello, after having had an encounter
with the Patriot squadron in that port,
in which one Of the Patriot vessels sus-
tanned some. damage. The Spanish
men Of war were from Curacao with
provisions. If this intelligence should
prove true, think the Castle will not
surrender SO soon as was conjectured.
The Independents stand in great need
of a frigate, in order to combat the Spa
nish frigate and brig, and which might
easily be done.

of the still suffering condition Of the
wretched peasantry, In the town of Sill

sery, and the report of what they saw is
indeed sad and melancholy one. The
town was divided into four districts, for
for the greater convenience OF visiting,
and the following are few affecting facts.
which are authenticated by the names OF
the narrators.
In district No. !, there are 400 indi-
viduals in absolute want. Many families
had been wholly without food tor "a and
36 hours-one family bad subsisted from
Friday TO Sunday upon BOILED WATER
GRASS, and one wretChed woman died for
want
In district No. Q, where not more than
two thirds Of the houses had been visited,
6l8 persons were found in starving con-
dition, many of them not having tasted
food of any kind for two days, and others
sustaining nature by water crosses
In district No. 3, 600 individuals were
suffering the same deplorable priyations.
In district No. 4, the number of famish-
ing creatures amounted to nearly I,6OO.-
