Reported Assassination nf Bolivar. —Catpain
Clark, of the brig Gen. Paez, at New York, in 11)
diys from Curacoa, states, that a report was in
circulation there, which was generally credited,
that Bolivar had been assassinated; that his troops
amounting to about 5000 men, had fled; and that,
all communication between Valencia and the other
parts of the country had been cut ofT.
Our readers, says the New York Gazelle, will ’
v.o doubt, remember that an attempt was some
months since, made to destroy tho President *i

From the Chronicle and Mai, lander, April G.
Interesting from Guayaquil. —The Ed
itors of the Commercial Chronicle and Dai
ly Mary Under, have been politely favored,
by an esteemed fiiend, with the following
extract from a letter, from an officer of U.
States schooner Dolphin, dated
Guayaquil, 17th Dec 1828.
“ In my last I did not mention any of the
occurrences which have taken place here,
as regards the blockade of the Colombian
ports by the Peruvians; nor any thing ve
ry particular respecting our own move
ments. 1 enclose to you Guayaquil papers,
from which you will be able to gather more
information than I can well give you—the
account of iht ir victory is a partial one, as
you may suppose. When we were about
entering the river in October last, we were
pursued by the Peruvian frigate President?,
Admiral Guise, and the corvette La Lib
ertad, Capt. Buterm ; and while lying off
the town of Paua, waiting for a pilot, La
Liberlad came to anchor at the mouth of the
channel, and sent a boat aboard of us to
say, that we could not enter the river, and
that if we did enter without communicating
with the Admiral, he would not permit us
to go out. Our Captain, Aulrick, replied !
that he had received orders irom his com
manding officer to proceed to the city of
Guayaquil, and that those’orders were writ
ten with the knowledge of the blockade—
that our government, and in fart the law of,
nations, did o*>i rccognr&o a blockade as cx- \
tending to neutral national vessels of war ;
and under these circumstances he had no
choice, other than proceed up the river to
the city, unless prevented by fotce. Be
fore the boat could return to the corvette,
SAVANNAH, THURSDAY. MORNING, APRIL 23, 1829.
we were within pistol shot nfhor, when the j
Admiral, who was softlt* distance from us, ■
fired a gun, supposed bv us. a signal for the !
corvette; but this he did not think proper!
to obey at that moment. The Admiral ft- j
red another gun towards us, and before the }
corvette fired, we were a considerable dis- !
twice from her; and when erifiirly out of I
her reach, she blazed away five guns which
fell astern. Remaining here about ten
days, tve proceeded to Panama—and off
Panas, the Libertad s;rw us, and made sail ;
she could not overtake us, nor did we wish j
to avoid her ; hut having nothing to coin- i
municato, our Captain did not choose to go {
out of his course. When we got to sea, fell I
in with the Admiral, showed colois, and j
parted.
“ While at Panama, we saw the comman
der ol the Colombian ship Pichisdia, who
was sent here fur troops, hut the ciew mu
tined and he just escaped with his life —the
mutineers look the ship to Pavla and deliv
ered her up to the Peruvians.
—Poring our absence from the city, the
blockadig squadron, consisting <*f a frigate,
corvette, a schooner, and two launches,
proceeded up to the city attacked it, and,
to the shame of the Colombians, though
the squadron had been in their waters for
several weeks, they were taken by suprise,
and tiic first broad side from the frigate,
battered down a fort, a short distance be
low the city, which mounted seven large
brass pieces, but defended by only axteen
men. Site sent her boats on shore and j
spiked all their guns. Below the fort a :
chain was thrown across the river, on which
the frigate hung nearly twenty minutes be
fore she could slacken it, and if the fort had !
been well manned, and tho guns well wor
ked, tho frigate could have been blown to
pieces. The squadron lay in front of the
city, three days, and fired 3000 shot, which
did considerable damage to the houses.—
They endeavored to effect a landing in
their boats, but wrru repulsed with great
loss. During the first night, a small foil
was thrown up, with one gun placed in it,
which was directed with good effect against
the frigate, w hich had grounded nearly op
posite, and it was at this time that the
brave and intrepid Admiral Guise was
blown to pieces by his gut), while standing
in the gangway. It is reported that after
lie grounded he shot his pilot. * Captain
Bold in, taking command of the frigate
considered it best to drop down the river at
Ponta Piedra, fifteen miles below the city.
On our return from Panama, we immedi
ately proceeded up the river, and on the
morning of 22J, we were brought to abreast
the squadron; a boat was sent aboard of us,
with the Admiral’s compliments to our
Captain, and after a short conversation,
the boarding officers said, that the Admiral
presumed we were going down with the
next ebb: “No sir,’’ replied Capt. Aulick
“will) tbe next flood, I shall proceed to the
city of Gu rjaqqill, would wait on the Ad
miral in the morning ’* Caps. Boterin
wished to keep the death of the Admiral, a
secret, supposing it was not known in the
city. On Capt Aulick visiting the frigate,
Capt. Boterin protested in writing, to his
proceeding up to tho city; and after a sharp
conversation of some minutes, our Captain
told Boterin, that if lie fired into him, he
would return his fire and strike his colors;
and in such an event, he (Boterin) would
be considered as an enemy, and would
have the guns, of all the foreign squadrons
in the Pacific, directed against him.—
immediately proceeded, about 10 A. M.,
and got under way without any molesta
tion.
“Yesterday 11. B. M. ship Alert, Capt.
Bayep, arrived, arid was brought to a long
side of the blockading squadron, the capt.
and officers were permitted to come up in
boats. In the course of vonversafion with
the capt. Botern observed that capt Aulick
was the prime mover of the expedition
aginst the squadron—that the Colombians
had not sense enough to have planned such
an expedition, without foregoing assistance;
that from this circumstance, and the brea
king of the blockade, the Dolphin was pros
cribed, and would not be permitted to enter
any Peruvian ports —this, however, will
soon be settled, for we sail in two days
for Payta and Callao. Our officers and
crew are all well. ’
From the New York Courier.
The Huron Territory. — From the Bal
timore American we gather several inter
esting particular respecting the contemplat
ed Territory of Huron. It is that part of
the North Western Territory lying between
the Mississippi and Lake Michigan, and
North of the State of Illinois, and which
.was attached to the Territory of Michigan
when Illinois became a State. At that
period there were few inhabitants in this
district. Upon the establishment of the
military posts at Green Bay, Prairie du
Chieuand St. Peter’s, the white population
began to increase, and in 1823, it amount
ed to 1500. Within the last three or four
years, since the mineral resources of the
country havo been developed, and the mi
neral lands have been leased by govern
ment the emigration thither has been al
most unparalleled and the country has as
sumed a quite different aspect. Various
estimates are made of tbo present popula
tion, varying from ten to twenty thousand
souls, the larger } *rtion of whom are on the
Mississippi, Ouiscunsin. and Fever Rivers,
not far remote from each other, whose prin
cipal occupation is the digging of oie and
the manufacturing of lead. The leturusat
the War Office show that more than twenty
million pounds of lead have been made there
within the last two or three years, of which
the tenth , received by the United States ]
i- Government, amounts to SBO,OOO. Os the
! reftiainißg population, the principal purl is
! { *t Green Bay. That portion of the court*
| try South of the O Wisconsin and Fox Rivers,
! ai td between Lake Michigan and tho Mis
sissippi, is generally composed of good
farming land or valuable minerals.
Such is the increase of numbeis and
business, that on the Ouiscousin and Fever,
300 miles North ol the seat of Government
ot Illinois, and 350 North of St. Louis
regular post coaches are now running.
Coal and I run. —From the Bradford
County Settler we observe ihe valuable
coal and iron mines have lately been dis
covered in the vicinity of each other in
Covington, Tioga County, Pennsylvania,
about three miies from Blossbukgh, where
iron works have been erected. The coal
hed*is situated op a branch of the Tioga
river, and presents a strata on the banks of
the stream, five lectin thickness, and ap
parently extends to a great d.stance. This
coal is bituminous, and said to be perfectly
free from slate and other impurities. Tiie
iron ore on the same tract is of the same
qualiij with that manufactured at Bloss
hurgh, and is very easily obtained from the
mine. From the certificate of Mr James
W httehead, published in the Settler, it ap
pears that tie lias examined the situation of
tiie mines, and pronounces both the coal
and iron of the best quality. Glancing our
eey at hhe map it would seem that a com
munication might be formed with facility,
by canal or rail road to the navigable part
of Tioga river, thereby opening a market
southward down ihatriver and the Susque
hantiah. and northward by means of the
Chemung canal to the western lakes and
Erie canal.—N ew York Courier.

REMARKS.
Cotton.—The past week in Uplands has been
very dull, and the transactions limited. We have
Liverpool accounts to the 21st February, which
are rather unfavorable, and havo, together with
the scarcity of shipping, suspendod, for the pre
sent, any demand which before existed. At tins
time we have but tw r o American ships in port, ex
cepting coasting packets—a change of wind must,
however, bring in a number of vessels, now hourly
looked for; and we hope soon to have more activi
ty in our market. We quote Upland 8a 9 1-2,
as in quality; really prime is scarce, and at pre
sent much enquired for. In Sea Islands wo have
also had a very dull week, and the tfansactions arc.
a mere nothing; We quote 17 a 20, and upward*
for fine brands.
Rice.—There was very little done in this arti
cle during the week; we quote 2 1-4 a 2 7-8.
Groceries.—The transactions in Groceries
since our last have been very limited, and princi
pally to store-keepers, at last week’s quotations.
