By a letter from St. Thomas,-Nov. fith we learn the following particulars of South America:— General Bolivar had dispatched general Anquatugi with 2,500 men to fake Santa- Mara. Bolivar is busily engaged in organ izing the army lately raised An Netv-Grena- da. The nuthber is said to be 8,000. A portion of the moncytlmt was taken at Santa Fee had-reached St. Atr-ustura, and some of it had arrived at St. Thomas. The doub loons of 1819 are unusually heavy. This money has given new life to the Patriot cause. Their army is in a plentiful coun try and well supplied with provisions and forage. It is the opinion of our correspon dent, that if the Patriots do not quarrel, or if strong reinforcements to the Royalists army do not arrive from Spain, Moriilo and eve ry hostile Spaniard will be forced to leave Venezuela ih less than six months. General Moriilo, at the latest dates, was at Ttnaquillo, where he had entr enched him self. Since he left St. Fernand ezde Apure and.Colaboza, those pieces ha.been taken by the Independents. General Marino with nltout 2,000 men, are posted at Maturia, in the pros incc of Cu- mans. Bermudez is at Margaritta, organ- ting the 1,500 Irish troops, of Dcvereux’s corps, who have arrived there. These troops are to unite under general Marino, and march upon Caraccas. General Pa«* is said to be advancing from the army of Bolivar with about 6,000 men, to attack Moriilo, who is supjtosed to be in clined to retreat upon the fortified town mid harbour of Porto Cavello. We arc assured by our correspondent, that he has ascertained those facts from au thentic sources. He further adds, ‘It is certain that Arauzumcndi, who was sent to St. Anguslura, as a state prisoner, is now Vice-President of the Cortez, and has had there were about IS ff'fep Vho’shpwed them- sclv'es, all of Whom I took-to be Americans.

He inquired particularly about a captain Blunt, who was daily expect ed at Neuvitas, from Alexandria, which this captain said he was looking .ter, and if he took him he should not spare his life, as he was his deadly enemy, Sic. The captain is of middling size, dark complexion, and ob served, he had been often at Keutitas, and was well acquainted on that part of the coast; and in one of their navigators I observed, while confined below, written “John LccV book.”—A. I*. Com. Adv. 2Uh in*:. Brion called before the house to give an ; count ofhis conduct.’—Demo. Press. Communicated for the Philadelphia Gazette. "Cadiz, Oct. 5, 1819. This dreadful sickness daily increases, and every day we are doomed to witness or hear of the death of a relative or friend, and we know not how soon \ve may follow them—There are actually 10,000 persons now sick—91 died on the 3d insU 61 of which were men. It has spread to Xcres, Port St. Marys, San Lucar, and even Se ville. Our theatre, and places of amuse ment are closed throughout Spain—and all communication with Andalusia cut off. So great is the fear at Madrid some there call it the plague—Public prayers arc order ed to be offered up in all the churches for an alleviation of these distressing events.— In business nothing is doing in any line. We never were in so sad a situation, and the gloomy toll of the church bells, and the tinklingofthe priests bell in every street brings with them feelings no way agreea ble.” — Philadelphia, Nov. 26. Eleven thousand one hundred Spanish dollars, arrived here on Tuesday last, in the schr. Horatio, front St. Thomas. COMMERCIAL TltE-iTY WITH FR.INCE. One of our London letters received to day, says, “We understand that a commer cial treaty with France is now forming- constructed on principles of the most libe ral policy and equally calculated to advance the real interests of both countries. French wines and silks, it is said, are to be admit ted into this country a* a lower rate of duty —•and France, in return is to admit our cotton goods (which are now wholly prohib- !,) at a rate of duty which will render theil; general use extremely probable.”— Coti Chron. Sept. 27. IMPOR'rAXT. There is a letter in town from Don Lou is de Oiiis, dated 10th of October, which says,-that the treaty which he negociated withthc U. States, is not, but wilt be rati fied. The samelettcr states that the Spanish general Millet, who has a perfect geograph ical knowledge of the Floridits, is to be sent to the U. States, to settle definitively, the differences which have occurred as to cer tain Spanish grants.—Y. Y. Gas. 26th ult. As usual, ('n the anniversary of the evac tuition of this city after the revolutionary contest, we had a brilliant military parade and review; and the corporation of the city- gavc their annual dinner, at which were as sembled as guests, the governorofihe state, the Vice-President of the U. States, and many other persons of distinction.—ih, JfJU Jr, . S.lVtV\\YAII. PONDAY EVENING, T)EC. 6, 1319. In the Republican, of Montlay last; Vz^nnivsb- etl the n-.Hivs* of.Vaviv, etc. to tlie public, which attacked the c hirst ter of general Mitchell. In reply to the piece signed bv Moore, (for we are assured lie never wrote it,) we find the following well written and pithy article’in the Georg a Jour nal. General Mitchell has certainly tivahvl tht subject alluded to, as it deserved. Me has thrown down the gauntlet to IhdW individual* who are behind the curtain; but, who move all the wires in tit’s affair. It is to be hoped general M triicll wT satisfactorily prove to h s friends that he is inno cent—-indeed circumstances arc’developing them selves which strengthens the opinion, that be w’l be able to do so. We arc inclined to believe, that a certain great man has got himself into a yua-iJa- Wcjleamfrom n correct source,thatcapt. Read, of the Hornet, on his way from Gi braltar to Madrid, was stopped by the direc tor of the post horses at Santa Cruz, a small .own about 1000 miles from the Spanish capital, in consequence of orders to permit no travelling from Andalusia, on account of the yellow fever at Cadiz. While the.Ame rican minister was engaged in endeavoring to obtain permission for him to proceed Madrid, captain Read actually ar rived. Having learned that tlie imerdic tion extended only to travelling on post horses, and having hired a private convey ance, he had been enabled to get on without any further interruption. The following being the number ofdeatlis in the city of Cadiz, in the mon.h of Sep tember, the yeiiotv fever must have been extensively tatal: 631 men, 186 women, 145 male and 97 female children; in all 1,112.- P/iila.

The joint committee on the state of the republic, to whom was referred the commu- nication of his excellency the governor, da ted on this day, and documents relating to the molestation offered by the Indians to the surveyors now employed in surveying the territory lately acquired of the Creek Indi ans, recommend the following resotu- turns: Resolved, That his «edleney the gov- «!•»» be authorized and' requested without •C&y rttkedy the evils complained of, by SO VTH AMERICA. Communications from the government of Venezuela, were, yesterday, received in this city stating that, in consequence of the repeated solicitation of Mr. Zca, vicepresi dent of that republic,charged with theexecu tive administration of the state, during the absence of the president, general Bolivar, to resign his commission, his exdellency general Arismendi was cluated, by the sov ereign congress, to succeed him, on the 11th September last, who, having faken the oathpiescribed by the constitution; entered, the Same d .y, on the exercise of the func tion* of this important trust, to tlie gener al satisfaction of the citizens. 1 he first measures of his administration indicate hiS' well known activity: orders were immediately communicated to the dif- Icrcnt corps of the army, concemii.g their future operations, and ’the measures adop ted tor their supplies.

Custom-nouse, 1st of August, 1819. MORE PIRACY. ]Thc schooner Caroline, captain Bcdfish, arrived at Boston on Saturday.—On the 31st of October, in the Narrows of the Old Ba hama Streights, at 10 a. M. was brought to by a piratical schooner, who ordered me to get my boat out, and come on board with my papers. When I got on hoard, my pa pers were taken from me, my boat’s crew anti myself ordered below, where a guard was placed over us. They then, with my boat, went on board the Caroline, and com menced a strict search for money, and un luckily found and plundered us of 500 dol lars, two boat loads of sugars, one case gold watches, two chests tea, one trunk boots and shoes, about one half of out* provisions and small stores, half piece duck, twine and needles, brass compass, crow-bar, trumpet, all our spare rigging, all our tools, two charts, Wcst-Indlu Pilot, paints, half bbls tat, clothing, fruit, vegetables Etc- When he got through, he released me, gave me my papers, and ordered me to return on board, lie pretended to be an insurgent privateer. When I remonstrated with him for taking American property, all the salis&ction I got was, that he had lost much property him self, and that he meant now to make up for it; and that his orders were to take what he wanted, wherever he could find it—that I might think myself lucky I fared no worse— he should have Ibadcd Kis schooner out of mine, if there was not another schooner in sight, which he expected would be a better prize, and when I left him be went immedi ately in chase of her. The schooner was about45 tons, pilot-boat built—hud Sisters, tf Alexandria, on her stern, which did not appear defaced, as if it had been altered; Baltimore, Nov. 16, Thomas Denny, whose case wc mention ed yesterday, as being under trial of piracy was found guilty.

A letter from Lcgington, Ky. dated Nov. 12, received in this city, says—“On the night of the 10th inst. a fire broke out this city, which entirely destroyed the goal, and five dwelling houses, one iivery stable and a number of out buildings, with a great quantity of other property. It was with great difficulty it was got under, the wind being very high, and owing to a very great drought. This was the work of an iucendi- diary, who has been taken, and is nqw before the court.”—ib.

Just as I was about make some remarks on this sub ject, I took up a paper containing’ the message of governor Bibb, to tlie legislature of Alabama, in which I find the following recommendation as res pects liberal salaries.

In times of great na.iomd dan ger and calamity, it may be expected thut every patriot, rcgardletw of personal considerations, wiil levote himself to the publ.c; but while the coun try is in profound peace, and the inhabitants am enjoying its blescngs, we should not presume that competent citizens, whose pecuniary resour ces *rc limited, can relinquish their dotnesf c com forts for public honors without due compensation, t would he unreasonable to expect it.
