DISTRESSING CALAMITY.

most violent storm passed through the North
err end of this county, prostra1ing every thing
in its course: houses, barns, &c. were in some
instances RACED TO their foundations, and we la

neighborhood of Leesburg, was instantaneous

long ago, by the President Of Colombia HIM,

with the science Of Government. To that de'
feet we may attribute the present state OF dis
organization into which the country has fallen
To men accustomed only to obey the aFOF

subordinate officers, it could hardly be expst'
ed that they could all at once be competent I"

The experiment has been tried, and, as we nav
seen, has failed for wan, of adequate force III A'

"DEAR SIR: An opportunity offering for Js-
maica permits us to enclose to you an extraor.
binary Gazette Of this city, containing the pro.
ceedings had and resolutions adopted by the
military chiefs, municipality, and citizens, on
the 28th and 29th ultimo, by which you will
perceive that our Province joins Venezuela and
the other Departments in their call for reform
of Government. The affair has been conduct.
ed in the spirit of good order and unanimi,y.
Our common occupations were not interrupted
a moment; and all goes on as though nothing
had happened. A messenger is to be sent i'm
meda'eIy 10 Bolivar, who is expected in Bogo-
Ia the 18th of this month, and whose presence
will, we hope, restore concord to the Republic.
We beg leave to convey TO you our firm con.
viction that no even, will endanger foreign pro
perty in this country. Whatever change may
take place in the form Of Government neither
we nor our property will be molested; and we
shall be glad to learn that all who have inter,
ests here, feel satisfied under this assurance
The present intention of the People is to give
to Bolivar extraordinary power, 10 act as he
may think proper; the end will probably be that
he be named Perpetual Dictator. Friends as
we are to the cause and march Of liberty thro'
out the world, we cannot help admitting that
this people are not capable of enjoying it, and
would be more happy under rigorous military
despotism, which we are fast approaching to.
These frequent political movements will, we
fear, affect our friends in London, but we 90
not ourselves doubt that, it Bolivar returns
and acts under The extraordinary powers given
to him, all the creditors Of the country will
feel the benefit of it. One Of his first measures
will be 10 re-establish the national credit abroad
as we'll as at home. We see no evil TO appTe
bend, and great deal of good to result from
the change
