FRENCH s. SPANISH SQUADRON!

FRENCH & SPANISH S9UADRONS.
"A curious circumstance is understood 10
have recently occurred between the comman-
ders of the French and Spanish sqaadrons, on
the coast of Colombia.
1t may be recOllectrd that late accounts
from Laguayra stated that a French squadron
had been OF the port, the commander of which
declared that he was going to Maracaibo to
capture the Spanish squadron under Commo-
dore Labordr. However he put into Curacao,
and from thence despatched letter to La
horde, demanding whether he considered him
self as acting under the authority OF the Cor
ties, or under that of the King as proclaimed
by the Regency aud French at Madrid. La
BoRDE in reply avoided giving ii direct an
swer, but stated that he was about to make
SAIL for Curacoa, aud requested the French
Commodore 10 remain there till his arrival,
when they could enter more satisfactorily on
this subject. The Frenchman remained, and
ON the arrival of Laborde, with his ships, the
correspondence was re-opered. Several let
tiers passed between the commanders, the ex-
act terms of which were not of course acctl-
rately known 10 the public, but il was under
stood that Laborde had declared himself a
ConStitutionaliSt, and that the object of his
first reply from Maracabo, was merely to Sc
cure the safe arrival of his squadron at Cura-
Goa, and having thus tricked the Frenchman,
he continues here with his ships free from at
tack.
