Caracas papers totbe 25th of 0cto
Der inclusive have been received at the
Merchants Coffee House, at Phladel
phia. On the Sd of October, the island
of Margarita separated itself from the
department of Maturin, and declared its
adhesion to Venezuela, and General
Paez. This, however, was not accom-
panied with bloodshed. Paez addressed
letter on the 18th of that month to
Raphael de Guebara, the leader of this
little revolution, highly approx ing of bis
conduct on the occasion. He states il
to be his wish and intention to maintain
tranquility, but insists upon a grand
convention Of Colombia for the purpose
of remodlng the Government.
Sir Robert ksr Porter, the British
consul at Venezuela, on the cath of Au-
gust addressed note to the Intendant
of the department of Venezuela, stating
that as the Colombian government had
on the sth of July passed an act, decla-
ring that Venezuela, having been placed
out of constitutional obedience to the
executive power of the republic, the
government is no longer responsible for
the individual security, nor for that of
the property of foreigners residing in
Venezuela: he therefore hooked to the
Intendant for security and responsible
tv.
In reply to this, Mendoza, on the 10th
ofAugust, addressed note to Sir Il.
Porter, assuring him that every protec-
ton should be afforded to the persons
and property of foreigners; and Paez,
On the 9th Of October, made similar as
surances.
The merchants labour under serious,
grievances from the total stoppage Of
the posts, both in going from and com
ing to Caracas. From the 10th of Ju-
ly to that date, the consul himself had
not received single letter or paper,
from Bogota, Carthagena, Santa Mar.
tina, or Maracaibo. Complaints were
laid before Paez, who, on the cd of Oc-
tober, made reply, coniessing his ina
bility to remedy the evil.

BY way Of Jamaica, we now have adj
vices that the Department of Magdelena
has also united with the above Proyin-
ces for the same purpose. Carthagena
pspers, of the e9th September, with
which we have been furnished, contain
the details OF this act of the municipal
Authorities, and declaration o! the ne
cessity that exists for an improvement in
the present state Of things. We have
also been favored with the following ex-
tract OF letter from avery respectable
gentleman OF CaFthagena, by which it
will be seen that most important change
in the Government Of COLOMBIA is about
to be made, and that BOLIVAR is TO be
INFESTED wiss supreme euthority.
fNerc. Adv.
"CarIagena, lst Del 1926.
DEAR SIN: An opportunity Offering
for Jamaica permits us to enclose to YOU
an extraordinary Gazette of this city,
containing the proceedings had and re
solutions adopted BY the military chiefs,
municipality. and citizens, on the 2sth
and 29ih ultimo. by whichyou will per-
ceive that our Province Joins Venezue-
la.and the other Departments in their
cal! for reform Of Government. The
affair has been conducted in the spllit OF
good order and unanimity. Our com.
mon occupations were not interrupted
amoment; and all goes on as though
nothing had happened. A messenger
is to be sent Immediately to Bolivar,
who is expected in Bogota the 18th of
this month, and whose presence will, we
hone. restore concord to the Republic. |
We beg leave to convey to you our firm
conviction that no event will, endanger |
foreign property IN this country. What
ever change may take place IN the form
of Government, neither we nor our pro-
perty will be molested; and we shall be |
glad to learn that all who have interests |
here, feel satisfied under this assurance.
The present intention of the People is to |
give to Bolivar extraordinary power, to
act as he may think proper; the end |
will probably be thai he be named Perpet
ual Dictator. Friends as we are 10 the |
cause and march of liberty throughout
the world, we cannot help admitting that
this People are not capable OF enjoying
it, and would be more happy under ri
gorous military despo,ism, which we are
fast approaching to. These frequent
political movements will, we fear, af-
feet our friends in London, but we do
not ourselves doubt that, if Bolivar re-
turns, and acts under the extraordinary
powers given to him, all the creditors of
the country will feel the benefit Of it
One ofhis first measures will be to re-
establish the national credit abroad as
we'll as at home. We see no evil to APP
prehend, and great deal Of good to re-
suit from the change"

At a meeting of the citizens of Ross
County, Ohio, which took place at Chill
licothe, on Saturday, the 4th instant,
General M'Arthur, and Messrs. Grouse,
Creighton, jr. Renick, Watson, James
Ross, were appointed Committee to
memorabilia the President of the United
States, with view to obtain a survey
by United States Engineer, ofthe best
and most practicable route between
GAINESVILLE and rhinestone, for the loca-
ton a branch of the national road; and
to represent the advantages which would
result to the nation generally, and to
the individual States particularly" from
"a continuation Of this road south from
Limestone, through Kentucky, Tennes-
see, and Alabama, until it shall inter-
sect the one to be made from Washing
ton City to New Orleans The object
is deemed 'of great national importance,
because the road carried through the
route proposed will open direct COM
munication between the seat OF the Ma
tionaI Government, and that Sieat Com
mercal City, passing through five entire
states, aud through large portions Of
four others, and viii also afford extern
sive facilities to the Agricultural, Man
ufacturing, and Commercial parts of
that community through which it will
pass, in their means Of intercourse with
each other"

FROM THE JAMAICA CoURANT, OCT. 10.
The recent events of Carthagena for
chilly demonstrate the truth of an opin-
ion entertained long ago, by tie Presi-
dent of Colombia himself, that the
Colombians were unacqualnted with
the science of Government. To that
defect we may attribute the present
state of Reorganization into which the
country has taaeh.
To men accustomed only to obey the
arbitrary mandates OF Spanish Niceroys,
and their Subordinate officers, il could
hardly be expected that they could all
at once be competent to direct the ma
chine of popular Gov eminent. The
experiment has been tried. and, as we
have seen, has failed for want of ade
quate force in the Executive Power.
People of Colombia are not yet in q
fit state for pure Republican system.
A Military Republican, which may e.
ventually lead on to absolute Monarchy
appears to be the best form Of Govern
ment for the country. England, in Ge-
neral Bolyar's opinion, was the only
country in the world where it was posi-
BILE that free Constitution could exist
under the dominion of sceptre and a
crown. If the recent events on the
Main have any effect, which we think
unlikely upon the commercial relations
with this City we shouldnot be surpris.
ed that they were of favorable nature
and, it is not unlikely it may throw some
light upon the disposal ofthe great loan'
the Government at Bogota, negotiated
in England

The notice which has been taken OF
the long and faithful services of some
of the officers of the State Governments,
has brought forth similar notices from
several other States. The case of thir-
ty or forty years tenure of such offices
as Clerks of counties, Treasurers,
Comptrollers, Surveyors, sc. is more
common than we had supposed. The
case among them which most excited
our surprise, is that of Simeon de Witt,
who has filled the place of Surveyor
Genera, ofthe State of Newly ork for
forty three years. The cause of sur
prise IS that this should happen in a
State where rotation ia Office is prin-
ciple more respected than in any other
State in the Union.-I6id.

Slate LiRe.-0n the Sd inst. final
settlement of the boundary between the
States of Connecticut and Massachu-
sets, was interchangebly executed by
the Commissioners of the two States.
Fifty stone monuments are erected and
lettered, to guard against future difficult
ties, and mark the jurisdiction of the ci-
vii officers of each State. Upon this in
cident the National Egis makes the fol,
lowing striking observation.
''In Europe, when petty Principali-
ties adjust and fix their boundaries, the
line of demarcation is marked by per-
manent monuments; but those monu-
ments are constructed after the fashion
of military masonry, crested with heavy
batteries of war guns, and bristled with
bayonets, to maintain the possession
with the arm of might. 10 America, the
territory OF two powerful States are de-
signated by simple pillars of stone, and
the initials carved on their surfaces, to
determine the rights of each, are safe
guards more efiectual than the parapets
and Famparts Of war-Worn fortresses."
