LATEST FROM BOGOIA.

Our regular files of Bogota papers to the
fourteenth Of April came to hand this morning,
forwarded BY our attentive correspondent at
Car,haeena, by way Of New-York. We have
already expressed, in decided terms, our opi-
Mon Of the conduct Of General PAEZ, touching
the recent unpleasant occurrences in Colombia,
and we cannot find any Circumstance which
might be construed as palliative OF the high
handed measure adopted by the licentious sol
diery in the province of Nenezuela--on the
contrary, every thing, so far as it is developed,
tends TO criminate the parties still more, and
renders them obnoxious to the laws which they
have, in most propitious moment, shameful
lv violated. England, shaken to its centre by
the unparalleled embarrassmen,s in the money
market, which emanated, in part, from the
withdrawal Of immense funds TO aid the south
ern governments, will, in all probability, view
this rebellion as the precursor to many others,
and the effect Of this feeling, should it unfor-
,unately gain any ascendency, must paralyze all
future attempts 10 reinstate the credit Of the
,tpublic among the capitalists Of London
GENERAL PACE, whatever his other qualihca-
tions may be, understands very little of the sci
ence Of government based on the broad prinei-
Piles of civil liberty, and the inhabitants of We
nezuela must have a very different idea OF free
dom from that which We supposed, should they
unanimously place him at the head OF their al

the villains concerned in the diaboiical outrage
of shooting the Elephant at Chepachet, X. r.
have been arrested and bound over for trial.
The facts. as stated in the Providence Journal,
are as follows:
"Between 70 and O'Clock at night, the ele-
phant was taken from the stable, and started for
Smi,h6eld, accompanied by leader on foot,
and two attendants or horseback, and followed
by small humber Of citizens OF different ages.

bridge in the centre Of the village, two muskets
or rifles were discharged in quick succession,

mails head. FIue bullets from the hrst hired
gun pierced the frontal bone of the animal 10
the brain. and two from the other took effect in
the neck, near the collar, and within .wo ieet OF
the leader, and very near some spectators. The
noble beast fell, and Instantly expired. Such
was the CONSERVATION produced by the terrlfy-
ing and fatal catastrophe, that immediate pur-
suit of the bloody actors was not thought oil,
and they escaped. AS soon as the nelghbors
collected at the morning dawn, the sensation OF
indignation was electric-regret and eXecration
were depicted in every countenance A sub

arrest and conviction Of the villain or villains,
who committed the high handed and daring
crime That sympathy, which is the native
and loyeliest ornament Of the tender sex, was
ON this painful occasion displayed in its most
glowing colours A meeting of the citizens
was holden in the evening, when vote OF un-
