Pbilade!j)ba, May 31. IMPORTANT. Late from Carraccas. Yeflcrday arrived fchooncr Adventure, capt. Armftrong, 24 days from Laguir3, and informs that on or about the coih April, a fchooner arrived at the port from Spain, bear ing difpatches to the governor of Carraccas, with inform ati on that all S. wa in the hands of the F. except Cadiz. 1 his news flew before the in e (Ten ger- The people of Carraccas the metropolis of that partot S. America, (no doubt prepared fortlic contingency; roliand a bodv of them met the

meffenger feized his difpatch es and carried him to goal. They immediately after leiz ed the governor and commander in duet at Carraccas, brought him down under a guard of one hundred men. and put him on board a A'paniih biig lying in port, on board ot which they put a few other officers and lent her off; at the fame time they

took up the lieutenant governor of Carraccas, and the commandant of La Guira, with the country round. A lib Barcelona, and fome other towns, it was faid had

declared themfelves independent of all the world, with the provifo, that if Ferdinand recovered his country and throne, that they would then acknowledge him' and return to their allegjipce. The people have appointed a junta and new organized the government. The whole of this revoluti on was put in motion fo fuddenly, that they took the governor up in the ftreet while walking at his pleafure, not having the ieaft fufpicion of fuch an event, and v was accomplifhed without the lofs of a life or the fpilling ( of blood ; or any further diflurbance than feizing and flapping off about 8 or ten of the principal civil and military officers. After this they laid an embargo on all veflels in port, which in eight days was taken off and the veflels fuffered to depart, Thpopu lace at firlt feized the fchr. that brought difpatches, but the captain ot her telling a plaufible llory, and that he vvilhed to flay among them, they took off the guard, and in the night the fchooner dipt off. Jt was faid among the

papers of the governor which the populace feized, there were found feveral that gave them realon to believe that the governor of Carraccas in the French intcrelt, and had held trealonable correlpondence with the French. The Spaniards feemed very wrath againft the French and feized every one they found in their country. From the Philadelphia Gazette. TllANSLA HON. From the Gazette of Carraccas of Apiil 27, 1810. Our external defence and fecurity could not be fatisfac

torily efiablifhed, while the provinces compofing the de partments of Venezuela uni ted under the ancient fvf

tern, did not form with the capital a confederation that would infurc refpcaability to the caufe which we have un dertaken ; and with this view the provincial government have chofen from amou the natives thole ciiaraftcrs befl qualified by their knowledge, attachment to the common caufe, anil influence with the people, to difclurge the public duties afligned to them, under

the aufplces of reciprocal be ncficence and utility ; and by this means, we may promife ourfelves that happy refult ot which it is fufceptible. In addition to the ncceflary in flruflions, the government has addrefled the different provinces, through the means of their commilfioners, the following ' PROCLAMATION. Inhabitants of the united

provinces of Venezula! The

panilh nation after two years

of the rnoft bloody war, and

the moft violent druggies to

defend its liberty and inde

pendence is now on the eve

of falling under the tyrannical

yoke ot its conquerers. The

pafles of the Sierra Morena,

which defended the refidence

of the national fovereignty

having been forced by the

enemy they have defcended like an impetuous torrent on Andalufia and the louthern provinces, and are adiually

harraffing the rear of thofe

few honelt and worthvpatri

ots who precipitately flew for

fhelter under the walls of

Cadiz.

The fupreme Central junta which poflefled the national

authority, has been diflblved

and difperfed, in confeqUence

oi fo much turbulence and

precipitation ; and, .finally

by that fad cataflrophe, the

fovereignty of the nation,

legally conftituted tor the general prefervation of the

itate, has been thus deflroyed.

Under thefe embarrafling circumftonces the inhabitants

of Cadiz, have organized a

nrvv lylfem of government

under the denomination of

4 Regency, V which can have

no other objedt than the tern

porary defence of thofe few

Spaniards who had fucceeded in ekaping the yoke of the conquerer, and providing for

their future lafety, and con-

fequently cannot be cloathed

with the general national

j) :)vcr, much lets of that of

thofe citizens who poflefs the

legitimaic and indifpenfibie

power or watching over their

own prefervation & fecurity,

as integral parts of the span

i(h monarchy. And can you

it be prudent for you to ne

this view, after receiving the

deplorable information of the

unfortunate flate of the war

in spain, by the laft arrivals on our coalt it was determined

to form a provifional govern ment in this capital, as well

confidered mbfl confeehial to the intereflscx general wiflies of thfc pedpilei Inhabitant of Vehe2uela ! this is the vote of the city of Carraccas. All its firff and highefl- authorities have fol emnly acknowledged it, by accepting and fwearing to obferve "with due obedience, the decifions of the people by their reprdentatives, and we, in obedience to the facred duties impofed upon us, make it known to- you, and we invite you to join in that union and fraternity which call us to ihefame duty and intereff. If the fovereignty has been provifionally eftablifbed with a few individuals, it is not for the purpofe of eflablifbing, over you, an infulting or opprelfive ufurpation, nor yet a difgracefulor fhamefui flavery but that the urgency and neceffity of the moment as well as the novelty & importance of the objes imperioufly require it for the common fecuiity. This itfelf puts ic out of our power to make manifeft to you on this haffy occafion, the extenfion of our generous ideas : butyou muft refleft, that if we acknowlege and loudly claim ihe facred rights of nature, to protett
