BY the last steamer from tho South We have received
news from the State of Cauca via Guayaqu According
to an Official communication Of Arboeda to Zurama,
dated at Mondomo. May 49, he WAS then preparing to
cross the Cordoras with his army to meet Mosquera.
Arboeda states that he muster twelve thousand
men, which appears to be exaggerated but there
doubt that he has very respectable force and much
superior 70 that Of Aosquera.
II is said that Mosquera has sent to barrcado the
mountain passes Of Moras Guanacas and Quindio, but
that Arboeda having been informed Of his intention,
passing the Cordilleras.
From latest Jews Moequera was at Piedras;
and Bogota, which is tho place Of the greatest i'm
portance in Now Granada and tho seat Of government
was in constant alarm Of the guerillas who had in
creased their numbers to large force threat
ening TO attack the city.
The prevailing opinion Venezuela and Ecuador is op
posed TO the reorganization Of Colombia as desired by
Mosquera, and have seen q letter in print of.Gen
Flores to Gen. Paez, in which he that in case
Mosqucra should attempt force Venezuela into the
Colombian Union, Ecuador will protect and defend
the rights and independence Of Venezuela.
II Arboleda succeeds in passing the CordiIicras and
should meet Mosquera there doubt but what the
first battle viii put end to tho war; as it is generally
believed that the party defeated will not have their
power to organize large force hereafter Of the
PARTIES will most certainly be entirely crushed.
