NEW G00D9.

Liberation of Mr. Meade. NEW-YORK, JUNE 17. We learn from Mr King, a passenger in the ship Belle, from Gibralter, that the king of Spain has issued a royal order, restoring fr. Richard Meade, an American citizen, who had been long confined in a Spanish prison, to liberty ; and that- Mr. Meade had resumed his mercantile concerns at Cadiz This state paper, which our informant has read, is, as he states, a most humiliating document. It not only restores Mr. Meade to his liberty, but it gives him one of the best characters, and thereby acknowledges the unjust and cruel treatment of the Spanish government towards that gentleman. Our informant understood that this was not until our government gave the Spanish monarch to understand, that unless Mr. Meade was instantly set at liberty, letters of marque and reprisal would be granted against the Spanish commerce. This threat had the desired effect. From South America.

From the Democratic Press. The following letter from our attentive correspondent at St. Thomas's gives the lates' advices from the Spanish colonies The accounts from S America, and many manufactured here onthe same subject, are so contradictory, that it is with much difficulty we are able to keep pace with the armies of the patriots or rovalists, or. to ascertain which of their commanders are dead or alive. It seems from the following, that Morillo is not dead, but recovered. If the royalists have got possession of the pass of Calaboso, the patriots have certainly been defeated and retreated. From our corresfiondent." ST. THOMAS, MA Y 16, 1818. i( We have the official news here from Carraccas, that another battle has been fought on the 1 1th inst. about 20 leagues west from San Carlos in which both parties seem to have fought with desperation. The Spaniards say that the Patriots are totally defeated, but acknowledge the loss of many first rate officers. The commander in chief of the royal army engaged 4 della Torra H is severely wounded, and his aiu-de-camp col. Villars, and about 20 officers killed and wounded. It is said that the pass 4:Salabosa" is again in the hands of the royalists. The royal commander in chief, Morillo, has recovered from his wounds. u Br ion and Aury have formed a junction near St. llartholemews at what is called the Five Islands ; they have now 15 sail. Just as Brion got under way, a Spanish escadre squadron hove in sight) and, after both had man ecu vered a little, they went each their way in a different direction. It is said that Rrion will fortify the island of Mona for a kind of rendezvous and take possession Lamana if possible."
