VENEZUELA. 1t appears from the latest
Caracas papers that the Congress of Ven
eezuela have agreed upon form OF govern
ment for the United Provinces, which is
neither strictly central nor federal. An .4ctd
passed in the town of Rio Chico on the Both
May, by some of the local authorities, the
military Commandant, and others, produced
great excitement in Caracas. This act was
an insurrectionary movement in favor OF
Bolivar, and submission to the Congress
of Bogota. Six hundred men were order
ed to be raised by it, to defend the district.
Bustillos, the Commandment, addressed a let
ter to General Arismendi on the day after
the act was got up, imploring him to stand
by Bolivar, the Chief of the Nation This
information is contained in letter from
Laguira, published in Ell Redactor' of to-
day. The writer supposes that the insur-
rectionists have it in view to seize on the
public stores, and overawe Caracas. The
