The Spaniards confess the loss of 1500 men, amongst whom they count IGO of ficers ; out of 100 men landed from the commodore’s ship only eleven returned. The corvette Ceres landed also 100 men, but as she is detained to leeward by the current, it is not known what number she lost. General Morales remained in Maracaibo with about 800 men, and short of provisions : but it is sup posed he has been forced to sur render before this.

Capture of Bahia. —By an arrival at Boston from Pernambuco, we learn that Gen.

Lord Cochrane who was cruising ofl the port, gave chase to the Portuguese fleet, and on the 6th of July succeeded in cap turing thirteen of the transports which he ordered hack to Bahia. He was in pursuit ot the remain der of the fleet, and as it was sup posed they would stop at Maran hamfora supply of provisions, it was believed he would come up with and capture nearly all of them. The Brazilian army took possess ion of Bahia immediately af.er Gen. Mediera evacuated the place. On the receipt of the news at Pernam buco, the city was illuminated for three nights in succession. Late accounts from Buenos Ay res, state that Agents had arrived there from Spain for the purpose of making some commercial ar rangements with that country. — They first proposed a cessation ol hostilities for ten years, i But the government it seems is determined not to enter into any’ negotiations with them, until the King of Spain acknowledges the independence of that country, including Chili, Peru, and Colombia. The anniversary of Independence was celebrated at Buenos Ay res, in the most splendid manner. A gentlemen passenger arrived at Charleston from Havanna, has furnished the editors of the Patriot, with some additional particulars respecting the plot to revolutioniize the island, which was discovered about the 15th ult. The object of the conspirators was to throw off the dependence on Spain, and to gain possession of the island bv arming the most deprived part of the population, and massacreing all opposed to them. A merchant, of immense wealth, who is said to be a brother in law of the celebrated Bolivar, is given as the author of the plot, and who was to have as sumed the military command of the island if the scheme succeeded- The leaders, after the discovery of the plot, had attempted to leave the Havanna, in vessels bound to the United States, but were sent after by the authorities of tne is land brought back to the town and thrown into prison. Arrangements are making by the Colonization Society’ to fit out three more vessels this season, for Af rica. We are happy to learn, this benevolent and patriotic Society has surmounted the most prominent obstacles to the attainment of its ultimate object, and cordially wish itcfa •five encouragement, and final success. The object is equally hu mane and benevolent, and much more patriotic than that ol the fo reign Mission Society, and there fore entitled to a preference in pa tronage. Monday, Se\it. 22, VH2'.V.

Fur The Messenger. THE LAST HOPE OF JOY FLED. TO M..,. I had one faint hope of joy left, One fond hope ! —but that hope is past; By M * * * J have been bereft Os that faint hope, which was the last. Yes ! the last hope of joy is fled, The last dream of pleasure is o’er, Nought have 1 now, to hope or dread, Nought shall ever disturb me more. To that faint hope I long did cling, Though reason told me I was wrong, But age can only wisdom bring, And tame the passions of the young. But who is there in life’s gay morn, An w hose youthful breast love’s fire glow's, Tmtt would not risk the pois’uous thorn, To gather a beautiful rose ? And w ho is there in that gay inorn, That hath not in some thoughtless hour, Been wounded by that pois’nous thorn, In plucking its beautiful flow’r? ’Twas cruel, M„*, thus to treat Him, who once loved you so; And who ne’er should ill usuage^neet, From any one, much less from you. Fortho’ I’ve gay and thoughtless been, Fin ever ready to agree ; But M # , thou hast never seen, One lone attempt to injure thee: For he who’d gaze on thy fair form, And have one thought of harming thee, Would e’er exult amidst life’s storm, Aud mock man in his misery. But I have been one lessen taught, I think ’twill Inst ine nil my days; Which is,to ne’er again be caught, Travelling in love’s thorny ways. For many rest their hopes of joy On earth, upon frail womankind, Who foolishly their time employ, And seldom do true pleasure find. Forme henceforth each future day, Shall through life ever happy be,* Except that one the fifth ot May, W hen 1 shall surely think ol thee.

Gallop,who married a lady in Woodstock, Ver mont, in July, 1822, and another in Bellville, New Jersy in June last, and afterwards deserted both in a most shameful manner, was appre hended and committed to jail in Reading on Friday morning last.— He had sunk the doctor in the shoe maker and being well dressed recei ved immediate employment as a journeyman -but he was soon found to be so indifferent a workman, that his employers were convinced he could not be a shoemaker by pro fession. Suspicions were exciled, and his dress and person were found to correspond so exactly with the description given in Mr. Tomkin’s advertisement that the magistrate before whom he was brought, did not hesitate a moment to make out a mittimus. The plant vulgarly called poke xveed, is recommended as a specific and sovereign remedy for the Can cer.

Finding unexpected relief, lie repeated the operation and was entirely cured. Canada. —Bell’s Weekly Messen ger of the 7th of July says :—“ We have long made up our minds that Canada is not worth the expense it costs us ; and that happy would it have been for this country, if it had been given to the United States in the peace of 1784. We should think any minister deserved well, both of the Canadians and of the English, who by mutual consent of the governors and the governed, should get a couple of millions from the Americans in purchase of our sovereignty of that terito ry The United States schooners Greyhound and Beagle have des troyed a piratical establishment at Cape Cruz, on the south side of Cuba. It was on the 22d July that this hiding place was discovered: Capt Kearny sent boats towards the shore, which were fired upon by the pirates with small cannon. Ihe boats were obliged to retire until the schooners could be warped in shore so as to defend the landing of the men in the boats. Ihe pi rates then fled into the woods where they could not be followed. They left 3 four pounders, 2 swivels, pis tols, cutlasses, and eight large boats, all which were taken off by Capt. Kearney. In a gloomy and fright ful cave, 150 feet from the entrance, near where the pirates forfeited themselves, was found a large quan tity of broadcloths, clry goods, fe male dresses, sadlery, &c. besides many human bones—supposed to be those of unfortunate persons taken and put to death. Iwo old men, who could not run with the rapidity the others did, were taken. T heir houses or huts were burnt. FROM MATANZAS. ‘ Capt. Pearson, arrived at Charles ton, who left Matanzas about the 11th inst. stales, that theU. S. schr. Grampus, Lieut Com’dt Gregory, was at anchor abreast of the Fort, and examined all vessels and boats, whether going in or com ing out. She has three launches among the Keys, and off Point De Cayacas, and one between the point which forms the Bay of Matanzas —so that Piracy in that quarter is down for the present. On the 9th inst. the Governor sent his boat on board of the Grampus, to demand of Capt. Gregory his motive for lying so long in port —that if be wanted provisions or water, he had been there long enough ; that the government did notallow their own vessels of war to remain at anchor longer than 48 hours at one time, &c. —Capt Gregory’s reply was, that he came there for the protec tion of American commerce, and that of Spain if necessary ; and that he would remain there as long as mi ght be required tor these objects or until compelled by force to re tire. Capt. Person also states, that the inhabitants of Matanzas,were much dissatisfied with the length of Capt. Gregory’s visit ; whose exertions for the suppression of Piracy-, were very great.
