preparations have been made for his reception in
Valencia, and Bsndos have been published here
preparatory TO making arrangements for receiving
him, and workmen have been engaged day and
night preparing house for him.
Is only wish that Bolivar may be as near as
Bogota; hut in truth, 20 not believe that lac is in
Colombia.
{" Ibelieve can say with truth, that Gen. Paez
is very Ill in Maracay, arising, l presume, from
fatigue OF body and mind-he had Just returned
from the Plains when he heard of tie Unexpected
departure OF Col. Msrceno for the Department OF
Cumana; he says il Is impossible for him to say
who his friends. 1t is reported here that Ares
mendi, supported by Colonel Monies, and the De-
partment OF Cumana, and the Island of Margarta,
have declared in favor of Gen. Paez, and that Ber-
mudez had hed his Department and taken refuge in
the lower Apure-this only give you as report,
it may be true"
A letter of the 18th Of September after men
toning the report of Arismendi having declared in
favor OF General Paez says:-'' This may be tue
in part. : respects the operations in Cumana, but
the people will be isore discreet than the leaders
in this province they will submit the subject TO
the consideration of the General Government and
use mild measures to obtain their object. do not
believe the report about Bermudez-t is manosu-
Yre of Marines in my opinion. We have foreign
patrol in LaGuayra, at the request of the chief AL
calde.'
General Marno the person alluded to by our
Correspondent, Is the right hand man of Paez and
is held in general contempt 10y the people of Carac
cas-. On the night of the 18th of September when
report pu, in circulation that the Lbertador
had arrived, the walls of the most conspicuous
houses placarded with, Live Bolivar, Live
the Municipality of Caraccas-de0thto .Ndrito."
An article in the Constitutional OF Bogo,a OF the
9th Aug denies the srrva OF Bolivar and states
that the report originated with an officer named
Captain John MelerdeZ, who arrived from Lima
via. GunyaQuil and Popsyan in February and pu,
the report into circulation A commission has
been ISSUED TO try him for the offence.

Boston Patriot
a letter received in Wilmington, Delaware,
from Bueuos AyJes, dated 22d June, gives the fol-
lowing confirmation OF the report that the Govern-
men; OF Great B.Itain is 10 become the Protector
OF a new STATE 20 be formed out of the Banda ORR
ea:a.:
" Lord Ponsoaby. the newly appointed British
Minister, TO reside this Government, has ar
I!Ved al Rio his way here, and is daily expect
sd IL Is said he is empowered 10 endeavor a me
diation in the present difference between this Gov
eminent and Brazil. The terms on which, we are
told, peace Is 10 be media.ed, and which will Ger
taInly not be altogether satisfactory TO the People
OF La Plata, are that the banda Oriental, the great
bune OF contention, be erected into independent
State; and that lis Independence shall be guaranteed
by Great Britain. 1'nis will be very sly mode of
establishing anew European Colony in America.
II was originally thought, that the interference Of
Eagland at all, or that of any other European
Power, in this que-tion, would, perhaps, move the
jealousy OF the American States. The terms and
whole character Of the proposed mediation (Which,
IT is believed, may materially interfere with present
American pol:cy,) cannot tail TO do so. That the
province OF Banda Oriental should be placed in Il
state, The slightest degree dependent any Euro
pean Power, think will never receive the consent
OF this Gev ernmen however respectable the source
OF the preferred medistion.''
