LATEST FROM COLOMHIA

By an arrival at Philadelphia from Laguavra,
we have reviewed Caracas papers To the i4ta
of May inclusive. From these papers we
make some extracts.-We have also private
letters OF the same date from which we ac-
quire some additional intelligence.
Two large merchantmen with dry goods,
had arrived at Laguayra from England, under
convoy. Their captains stated, that a Al gun
frgate for the Colombian service. had sailed
twelve days before them; that She had pu.
into pert in the Channel. but would sail
forthwith. Ii is therefore 10 he presumed
that the frgate reported in our ship news IA
standing into LaSuayra, when the schooner
Harriet Newell was under weigh, is the one
alluded To as purchased for The service of the
Republic.
Ii is stated by Captain Fenton, of the Har-
riet Newell, that Commodore Daniels had
arrived at Laguayra with his officers ken
IN the late action. They had been liberia
on parole, but not exchanged
From The Iris Of Venezuelu
On the LIST inst. at four in the afternoon, the
Colombian corvettes, Carabobo aud Maria

squadron of Puerto Cavello, together with the
brig OF war Independence, engaged IA very
superior force of the enemy, consisting of !,

To wlndward of the above port In spite OF
the superiority of force, our vessels sustained
the combat during two hours, having made
two attempts Ia board the enemy, and resist

enemy found our force divided ar there can
be- no doubt, but that in spite OF their superb
0rity 0i fnrcc, they could mol have wrested

The government has taken Ill precautions
10 remedy this misfortune, and We feel con
fident, therefore, that no serious consequences
will result from il. The corvette Bolivar
anchored Yesterday in the roads ofIH Guavra,
and brings information that the briggs Of war
V.ncrdor, and Pchinca had sailed for Cur
acna, 10 repair the damages sustained by the
latter vessel at Tucacas.

at war, and that we must employ the immense
resources we possess, 10 annihiIate the obsti

alarm to the existence of our Republic but

the brutal satisfaction of molesting us.

from CadIZ. for "A regular file Of Spanish pa

French to enter Catalonia and Guipu Goa AZ

FROM BUENoS AYREs.

bosToN, June 5.-We have been favored
with Buen- .,yres newspapers of March so.
and April LIST. They contain part of nara
tlVt OF another alarming conspiracy rnr over
tuning the government, which had been re-
Gently suppressed. The first notice nf the
conspiracy was received by the government
on The 18th of March, and on the 9th the in
snrgents appeared, in open arms. After a
iIttie lighting the insurgents were routed, and
most of the conspirat0rs were arrested A
letter which we have seen of April Sd, speaks
"i The late connections as of very serious
nature 1t was expected that the conspira
tors would be brought 10 the scalfold, and a
nope is expressed that the energetic meas
uTes taking by the government would put an
end 10 the attempts at revolution.

Might warm you, or thick clotles but her,
Nothing can warm again
C. If could wake her,
She would smile on me, as she always does
And kiss me. Mother, you have slept too long.
Her face is pale-and it would frighten me,
But that know she loves

C. Once, when sat upon lap, felt

There are certain description OF persons, whose

most ridiculous absurditics, & lar oustrps their

Divine Providence and would really persuade us to
believe that they are familiar with the views and de-
signs ofthe Supreme. All the, victories & triumphs,
rewards and punishments, casualties and crimes OF
