VIL. NICOM'S artillery. In the onset of the -4, the Creoles gave way, but finding th. Europeans stood the fire so well, they returned to the charge again. The Gazettes also contain several Proclamations, and a Manifesto from VIINEGAB to the inhabitants. The particulars of the dreadful massacre, which wok place at Quito on the 2d of August are already before the public ; but we yesterday received a Tti. nidad paper, containing subsequent accounts,. which shew that the scenes of blood-shed were not dosed where the former narrative ceased. " Immediately at ter this bloody St. Bartholomew's," observes the Trinidad paper, " the Nobility of the country were invited to assemble at Government. house, to congratulate them on their not having been comprehended in the conspiracy—but they were shot to a man, by the troops who surrounded the Govern. ment-house; who were then ordered to disperse through the city, and put man, woman, and child, to theaword, which was literally obeyed. It is computed that 700 persons were murdered upon this occasion; among whom is the Marquis de fixa.vaLzons, a man of great science, to whom Hossiourr was indebted for all his information respecting that country. It appears further, that this bloody project had been concerted with the Viceroy of Santa re, to whom the Governor of Quito had immediately dispatched an express, to acquaint him of the success ; but the Junta of Santa Fe having intercepted the dispatch, the Viceroy was apprehended, tried by law, convicted, and executed, " The news of this terrible catastrophe was brought to the Caraccas by the young Marquis de SELVALIGAIL The effect it produced on the Caraquenos was instant and unanimous-4s cry of vengeance against the En. ropeafts pervaded all parts of the city and province.. many of the principal European inhabitants were imprisoned ; and, in the first moment of indignation. the expulsion of every European was resolved on ; but the Junta, always prudent in their determinations, have, we ate informed, confined that order (with few exceptions) to the zuachultitu, who have been ordered to quit the province in six days; and the same deci• smut has also been taken at Barcelona and Cumana. Caraccas Gazettes to the 28th of November hare been received, via the linked States. They do not contain so much general information as might have been expected, and are chiefly composed of Decrees relating to internal government. Among which is an instrument, consisting of seven long articles, pro. viding that all persons capable of bearing arms shall. if necessary, be called out to maintam the independence of the province • and it assigns a sem of 150 thousand dollars to be raised for the purpose of arming this force, calculated at more than 5b,000 men, if the entire strength of the revolted districts were to be railed out. Thirteen natives of Old Spa% convicted of entering into a correspondence with the Viceroy of Merle% had been executed. They were hung, and their bodies remained exposed to pub. lie indignation during a whole week. Accounts of the 9th of November, from Santa Fe, contain the particulars of an attempt made there to restore the old form of Government, which had failed, after OUP lives had been sacrificed. On the day of the date of the dispatches all was perfectly traaquili alia no further apprehensions were felt.
