PUERTO CABELLo, VENEZUELA. s. A.
October 8, 1S43.
JAMES GORDON BENNETT, Esq
My DEAR SIR
Some considerable time has elapsed since last
had the pleasure of addressing you from this port,
which circumstance will undoubtedly be satisiac-
torily explained, by stating that direct opportun-
ty tor your city has offered subsequent to the depar-
ture OF the schooner Mary Anna and, IN fact, no.
thing OF particular Importance worth mentioning
has transpired either in commercial political, mill
ary or ecclesiastical affairs, to my knowledge, for
Business is@xtremely dull at present with us, but
many entertain hopes that the coming year will
bring about more salutary state of things, than
the present, which has undoubtedly lett rather
dlsagreeable Impression upon the minds Of numer-
Gus traders and SPECTATORS in the productions OF
this country, whether forwarded to Europe to
the United States The planters of Venezuela have
already opened their eyes to the prospect before
| them and l conjecture, by the experience of the
two last years, will convince themselves that cof-
tee. cocoa, cotton, &c, raised by them cannot
maintain ,he excessively high prices, which In for
mer years these articles have been sold at but it is
| almest impossible to convince them that there no
probability whatever that the productions heretofore
| mentioned can ever regain the prices of the years
1880 TO "a and %, In consequences of the immense
productions (coffse) Of the Brazlls Saint Domingo
East Indies, and other places. ] would, however,
observe, in4 regard TO the cocoa raised along the
coast, tina, no other country produce, Of equal
quality, for it's superiority is Justly celebrated in
Spain and France, and therefor this article, It may
be reasonably presumed will readily find market
and at fair prices, which must remnnerate album
dainty the planters OF this valuable article.
The agriculturlss OF this country, with some ex-
ceptions, in anticipation Of large crops and higher
prices. since the establishment of the National
of its funds, hypohecated their estates or planta-
tons to this institution and agencies, and subec-
ting themselves and their property to the rigorous
effects of the special law of the 10th OF April 1884
which allows the privilege of STIMULATING in con-
tracts, the most severe conditions imaginable (by
mutual agreement of course), to take effect in case
OF non-fulfment, as provided in any document le-
galy extended, to wit-the liberty to sell at public
auction for cash the properly of the delinquent debt
or the date and hour the note or obligation be-
comes due. But, sir, am sorry to say, that al
though il is the law OF the land, rogues can al
ways find some way to evade it, and consequent
ly it very often happens that the poor creditor
is condemned to suffer the fnancIers' 10 escape,
or spend fortune in procuring late and tardy JUS
ice.
A strict observer of passing events in Venezuela,
will undoubtedly find that the Judicial affairs march
most mlseraby indeed, and in many cases disgrace
fully, even under the eye Of the supreme authori-
ties of the Republic. This is to be imputed to the
oversight OF the appointing power. which often
times winks at and allows great irregularities, in
preference to throwing out OF emp oy a Compa-
DIRE" or " Padrno." Reform must come ere long
In the Judicial system, even the natives will be-
come dssused d., With the present irregular ard OBJ
ba in anarchy, and Venezuela constituted all, all
ordinances, DEGREES and laws in.ermnsled; and
| am inclined 10 believe that Philadelphia lawyer
with all his CHARACTERISTIC acuteness would not
be able to dsentaDgle the immense budget OF laws
said TO be actually in force, civil, military, and
cesiastlCal.
lam happy to inform you that the respectable and
knowing" young men OF this city have establish.
ed Society OF Mutual Instruction." and are,
you, seriously progressing prodisiously in the
fine arts and sciences; literature is the order
of the day, judging from the "pen drivers"
effects in weekly paper published at Valencia.
Puerto Cabello, under the auspices Of The afore-
said public institution, must advance infinitely in
civilization. | would most respectfully call their
attention TO the swarm OF " Curacao heatben" re-
sid ng in this place. Gentlemen. lay violent hands
upon them, and bring the poor deluded creatures to
their Senses in virtue of the noble and true system
OF mutual instruction.
Further more, you will be pleased to learn that the
Venezuelan Government has in contemplation the
erection OF a lighthouse at the entrance OF our har-
bor OF course we shall. as usual, await the action
of the foreigners, who are obliged, in accordance
