AFFAIgS OF COT,OA;pTA

n.
New YoRK, April l4.-Want of room prevents
our entering fully into this subject as we should
wish. We shall endeavour, therefore, to give
very brief view OF recent events in that country
When Bolivar returned from Peru and by his
intcrposiiion restored, rather prevented the
breaking OF the public peace, it was done by prons-
ing the anti-constituonal party, that convention
should be called, TO consider The proprety of form
ing new system of Government. This party
owed its power TO the unprincipled rebellion OF
Gen. PacZ; and has always maintained threaten
ing aspect towards the laws, the constitution and
Individual and public rights, whenever they have
appeared to present any obstacle to its designs
Bolivar, under the plea of necessity submitted to
be dictated TO by insurgent populations; the con-
gress acceded TO their wishes and called conven-
lion, but took measures TO secure the election and
The deiiberation OF the members from the influence
oil the troops. The election fell on men of Just and
republican views; and the insurrectonary party,
disappointed, now say there shall be no constitu-
ton, and call on Bolivar TO become Dictator The
same officers, the troops who laid their hands
on their swords for convention, are row ready 10
draw them 10 prevent it.
Bolivar, 20 his eternal disgrace, does act like a
military man, and nothing else. Two or three
months ago two or three batiaiions OF government
troops, stationed the frontiers of Peru declared
that they were at his service, and that they would
never serve any other chief. He received their
address without reproach; and now the troops OF
Puerto Cabello, La Guayra and Caracas have Ia
ken the step we have mentioned. We believe
however, that the people strongest.
