LATE FOREIGjX JVEIVS. Mighty Important and Interesting Information from Colombia, translated. Oflice of the Secreary, Head Quarters in Guayaquil, Sept. 18th, 1826. To the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Bogota , Sir: This day His Excellency sets off from this city for Quito, and he will continue, without stopping, his route to Bogota. The Government will be already in
formed of the Arts celebrated in the. Departments of Asuay, Quito Guayaquil. His Excellency has given orders that the Administration should Hllllll Sllllllllli be conducted on the same the same principles, zvithout the slightest alteration, and that every thing should continue as it has been hitherto since the establishment of the Constitutional System His Excellency has published t lie enclosed proclamation, which contains the sentiments of his Excellency on the present state of affairs. In the public papers which I herewith send, aie detailed the principal events which have occurred in these Departments. Hi Excellency is most anxious to arrive in the capital of the Republic, to consecrate anew his services to his country. I am, with great consideration, your most obedient humble servant, J. G. PEREZ. I TRANSLATION. From the Supplement io the Bogota Constitutional of the 28!h Oct. 182G. "By the Courier of the South, which arrived at half past three in the aflernoon '.ve have received the following Procla mation of the Liberator, published onj !))' arrival at Guayaquil, and which we hasten to present to the public, with the congratulations arising from the hopes imparted by its contents. COLOMBIANS! "The souod of your discord reached my ears in the capital of Peru. I have come to present you with a branch of olive; accept it as a bow of safety. What! are enemies already wanting to Colombia? are there no more Spaniards in the world? and now, when the whole earth should he our ally , we should re-j'1 main submissive subjects to the laws, and render them more binding by the strength of our affection for them! 'I offer you anew my services the services of a brother. I have not sought io discover who is in the fault, for I have never forgotton that you are my brethren in blood, and my companions in arms. I bring vou one common salutation, and two arms to clasp you to my breast enter therein to the bottom of my heart, hoth Cranadians and Venezuelians j'iftor unjust; all belong to the army of the Liberator all are ci Z ns ot the Great Republic. 44 In your conduct there is but one who is culpable I am he! I came not in time; iwo friendly Republics, children of our Victories, retained me loaded with boundless gratitude, aud with immortal recompense: 1 present myself, a victim for the sacrifice: inflict on me your blows they will be grateful if they satisfy your anger. Colombians: 'I tread the soil of my country, that the scandal of y our outrages, and the crime of your di-Ufiion, may immediately cease. It is no longer Venezuela, it is no longer Cuudiuimarca: all are Colom Liana, or death will cover the deserts! which anarchy may leave. BOLIVAR." It will be seen by the above that the Liberator had treated the acts of ihe municipality of Quito, Guayaquil, &c. with the contempt they merited, and has ordered that the Constitution be observed in the administration of the laws, without the slightest alteration throughout the departments. This act of itself is sufficient to do awav all the foul aspersions so liberally bestowed by the Editors in this country particularly some in New York, upon the character of Bolivar, in which they have accused him of every thing vile and contemptible without even the shadow of truth to sustain their unhallowed detraction. When they read these ev idences of his unshaken attachment to liberty ,!iis devoted affection to the People, and his unceasing love for his country, the blush of shame must be felt that they could, for a moment, aid in attempting to sully the reputation of one of the most disinterested Patriots of the present age. Baltimore Gazette. The prompt successes of the Russians in the new war with Persia, animated the attention of the British politicians to the potency and designs of the colossal Northern power. Bell's Messenger dwells on the subject thus: Thc foreign intelligence of the week embraces some points of particular interest. It appears that Russia has activelyengaged in warfare against the Persians; and although it is difficult to understand the nature of the quarrel, and the results to which it may lead1, one thing is certain thatthe Russian armies arc now advanc-1
ing info the Provinces of. Persia, anu fighting battles in barbarous places, the names of which we shall not venture to pronounce. The magnitude of the Russian empire is truly astonishing; and though its bulk renders it tinwidely, and its strength is more specious than sound, it becomes a matter of serious consideration, whether it hold together, split up, or absorb the neighboring European powers into its own mass. If we
look to the Baltic, we see the provincesjto secure the means cf lashing with
