Colombia. The New York Daily Advertiser
contains the following extract of a letter from a
highly respectable gentleman in Bosota, which is
more luminous than any of the accounts we have
seen. There Is probably some confusion of dates
in the various advices received. We repeat,
however, that it is possible there was a revolution
on the 22d April, at Bogota; though Arismendi's
Proclamation at Caracas on the 25th could not of
course have been found on a receipt of the intel
~ligence. 1t seems probable that there was a civil
convuIsion on the 22d, from the tenor of all the
adviceS.
"All here is anarchy and confusion. We
knew afrw days ago that the Commisslon sent to
Venezuela by Congress. and composed of Gen.
Sucre, Bishop Estoves, and Doct. Amanda, had
not been admitted to approach the Territory
of Venezuela, and that they remained at Caucut-
Ia. where the deputies from Caracas would meet
them.
Congress had no idea of adopting a Federal
Constitution, but the declaration of Venezuela
had forced that system upon it, as the only means
TO preserve the union and tranquility. The opin-
ion of several of the members. however, was that
a separation was desirable. Popa,a an had sentln
a representation to that effect, and urging that
body to establish a provisional governments and to
convoke constituent Congress for New Grenada
1.-The ministry has been changed. Osorio is
for the Home Department.; Hewan, Secretary of
War; and Harguez. for the finances. That en-
cellent patriot. Don Domingo Caicedo, is Presi-
dent of the Council, and at the head of the Ex-
ecutive. The Iiberator is at Fecha, apparently
for the restoration of his health, but chiefly to "a
void the abuses with which he is overwhelmed
from the Venezuelan press.
- 1t appears that Urdaneta Is at variance with
and the former. deserving his post as MEM
Der of Congress, retires to-day to Tunja. He
does well to leave Bosota, whose inhabitants hold
him and his King in adherence. We are on the
eve of a revolution which will probably overthrow
that dittatorial power which has, during four
years, carried US 10 the brink of misery and ruin.
:. Whatever the change may be, it must be for
the better. as nothing mare can be imagined than
our hitherto lawless condi:ion.
"2lst .4pra e o'ci7ck.--We continue in a
teverish state, and the crisis draws to It's close.
Don Domingo. supported by the two Ministers,
Marquee and OsOrio, has seat Il message TO Con-
gress, recommending its disS ,%lution, as the deli
