The accounts from Colombia, as to the character
Of General Paez's movement, are very contradictory
Whilst il is undoubtedly much rebellion as If a
Commander Of one Of our armies, during the late
war. had spurned his orders and even the constilu
lion of the land, and taken upon himself the head
Of particular STATE, TO set at defiance the Fcder al
authority there are not wanting friends to the Re
public who justify his course. We consider il. with
the fights we now have. an unfortunate and menac
ing incident. Private letters intimate that Papz is
the bosom friend OF Bolirar, 20 whom he has appca-
led. His being his personal riend will not, unless
we mistake his character, induce the President to
