The Ste am Uoat Paul Prv arrived here cn Friday the 11th inst. from Tcrre Haute, remained here a short time, and after taking in a few passengers, proceeded down. The steam boat, Crusader, from Louisville, arrived here on Tuesday niht, the 15th instant. The Ladv Franklin, and the Virginian, both from Louisville, arrived on ' thc 16th. The Crusader, and the Ladv - V J Franklin, after discharging their cargoes, departed same day for Louisville. The Virginian, after discharging a part of her cargo, leu tor lj-itavette The Wabash is yet at a navigable stage ; for steam boats, but is falling. I have been authorized to sav, that Joh.v Black, is a candidate for Associate Judge, at the August election. I have been authorized to say, that Abraham RnoDAioiEL, is a candidate for CoroEer, at the approaching August election. JThe 2nd number of A Citizen,' which is given in this day's paper, was enclosed in the following note. Sun. Ed. Mr. Stout. Sir Vou have ever professed to publish an impartial paper, but it is unnecessary for me to she how often your course has entirely departed from au honest impartiality. When an i noortant election is approaching, an imp irtial press would be open to the friends of all parties. Is it so with your Sun? Have you not determined to suppress a communication made by me, some days past, in relation to the merits of the candidates for Senator? Is this impartial ? Perhaps you will say vou only kni-TV one candidate. True it is, your Sun only presents the name of one of the candidates The public will reqvire a different sort of impartiality. To afford you an opportunity to r.yrm, I send you another communication, and probably shall favor you with some more to enlighten the columns of vour Sun. June 7, 1830. A CITIZEN. That 4 A Citizen," and the public generally; may know why the name of John Ewing, h is not bev-n inserted in the Sun. I beg to refer him and them, to the following extracts from the. Western Sun. From the Western Sun of May 17, 1823. "77?e RL'Cti'jti The rules laid down in the following no. ice to candidates, from the Indiana Firmer, we have resolved to adopt for our eovtiMVMeni also. Sun, J'ditor. From the Lvliami Farmer. We find it becomes necessary for us to establish certain ruls in regard to the manner of publishing candidates' names. Hereafter, when a candidate wishes to be announced, he must give us information of it, in person, or under his own hand. The first week hi.s name will be published under the editorial head, an Or afterwards, will be put in the list, and coatiaued for the season; if a subscriber he must pav, or become responsible for fifty cents, and if not a subscriber, he must pav one dollar." &c. From the Western Sun, of May 8, 1824. To Cj'i.Hdnrcs.The Editor of the W. Sun, b is determined that he will adhere to the rules adopttd last, in regard to announcing their names." Notirt-s similar to the foregoing have been repeated since, the rule adopted at that time bv me, 1 have in no case departed from nor shall I hereatter. Fnr'.her, no candidate's name has been withheld when the rule has been conformed to nor can any now, or at any time hereafter be admitted upon any other terms, while I have the control of this :)ress. The foregoing extracts and remark?, are deemed sufficient to satisfy every candid mind, why the name ot John F.wing, Eqr.h is not appeared in the list of candidates. No reply is deemed necessary to any of the other queries or charges of "A Citizen." Sun, Editor. rou TIIC Wl.STLKX FUN".

He will write fearlessly, for he is unknown, and intends that the motto of Junius, IStat nominis umbra" shall applyto him. It is now intended to canvass the respective merits of John Ewing and Wilson Lagow, and to sift the claims thev present to the suffrages of an honest and independent, intelligent, highmiuded peo pie. I have said that the worth, ability and services of John Ewing are properly understood in other parts of the state. In truth he could not have a seat sj long in the Senate, active, disinterested, intelli gent, able and ellicicnt engaging with the most laborious attention in the discus -

your townsmen, that he has seen a letter from that grovehnu, oihce-seekinjj, and mighty partisan , which states the tact, and boasts that many chants are taking place. I caiui 't I eiieve that the jcJ people of Kuox, Daviess and Martin,

arc 50 lost to worth find ability of so dis-1

tiiiuiiicd character, as to dismiss from 1 their service the Hon. John Ewing. I have long considered him a credit to your district, and an honor to the state. It cant l-o possible that such men as and , can so mislead the people. Thcv mnv manage a few of the ignorant or unprincipled, changelings, ready to be blown by every putF, but I should think cannot effect the worthy part of your vo(crs Lct me now wh0 this Laow is, that these men hive selected for their tool? It has been thought here that as the Wabash people desire to have one of their distinguished men in the United States' Senate, and it being understood that Gen. .obic will not again be a candidate, that Mr. Ewing might be induced to oifer fur that station," &.c. die. The writer of this article judges John Ewing fairly and impartially; he has always been his political supporter, but never his personal friend; he lalors under no sinister personal prejudices or partialities to mislead his more considerate pidgment; he hopes that he judges impartially, and he aims so to write. Who is Wilson Lagow? He is a candidate for a seat in the Senate of Indiana! What services has he performed for the country? He has made hats, sold goods, and shaved the people!! In what public capacity has he been known or distinguished? He has been distinguished as a Steam Mill Company Partner, and as a Bank Director, and he is now known as a professor of religion!!! These are the claims he presents for their confidence and support. Up on these, and upon the aid and assistance of a few ambitious aspirants, partisanleaders, office seekers, composing a club made up of avarice, infidels and pretended saints, pettifoggers, quacks and steamdoctors, old Bank and Steam Mill Managers, and hypocritical, canting intriguers He depends for support in the election. The people should be watchful of such combinations, ever ready with plots against the public good. Put down at one election, they will muster their strength for another. Ever brooding over their dark schemes and sinister projects, continually stimulated by ambitious designs of personal aggrandisement. The same conduct which was pursued twelve years ago, is adopted now. I ney have ever been known by a malignant jealousy of all able, faithful, honest politicians, and public servants. They have for fifteen years plotted against John Ewing; to injure him they gather togedier in their darl caucuses, and exhaust their malignity in plots and schemes, dark as their own im aginations, base and venimous as their own hearts can picture forth. It cannot be that the support of such men can give strength to any one. It is not possible that in an intelligent community, such men supporting Wilson Lagow, can have any influence. Yet it seems that one of them boasts that John Ewing's old friends are dropping off from him. This man is known very well, and should be careful how he writes his letters. Base as he is, he would dread to see himself held up again to the public gaze in all his naked deformity; he had better be still, and trust for protection to Wis meanness. But is it true that any of the friends and supporters of the Hon. John Ewing have deserted him? Certainly none that are known of worth and intelligence. Those honest, honorable, high-minded citizens who have .-o often supported him at the ballot box, are still faithful. His numerous friends continue zealous are still watchful of the artful management and sinister schemes which may be agitated to deceive the people into a forget fulness of their duiy to the country. It is possible that some few weak persons may have been deceiv ed; or that some unworthy aspirants, disappointed in their expectations of the lion. John Ewing's patronage, may have change J, and pined the old party of intriguers. It is natural for such to follow their own visionary projects, forgetful of the para mount interests ot the countrv; and it may be, that some honest, but ignorant men may have been deceived to change their opinions by the vile machinations of the unworthy, yet I am not so uncharitable as to think such men aware of any inconsistancv in such change. I onlv mean to say with tShakspear, "a plague of opinion some men wear it on both sides like a leather Jerkin,1 and "that old arbitrator Time, must one day end it." However, such men should recollect the general w elfare to which the lion. John Ewing has been faithfully and fearlessly devoted that if he ever erred, it was not I intentional that his anxious desire has j always been to represent his constituents ; "in spirit and in truth" that he has ever labored to foster and promote their resour ces and industry; and then they should inquire, in what has V ilson Lagow shown ! his devotedness to the permanent interests cimty, are p.niicularly requested to attend a meeting at the Court House on Mmiday the 'Jlst int. at : wVlock, P.

SAVANNAH, MAT 22l

Late and imfiortant from Colombia. FLIGHT OF BOLIVAR. To a gentleman, a passenger in the brig America, arrived yesterday from St. Thomas, we are indebted for the fob lowing important intelligence from Colombia, received at St. Thomas by the mail boat from Laguira, two days before the departture of the America: A revolution headed by Gen. Urdaneta, the formeT friend and firm supporter of Gen Bolivar, took place at Bogota, on the 22d of April. The whole country declared itself in favor of Venezuela; Bolivar, with Gen. O'Leary, and a few followers, fled with the utmost precipitation towards Carthagena, in order, it was presumed, to get out of the country. His destination was not known; but his power is completely at an end. A proclamation of Juan B. Arismendi, dated at Caracas, on the 25th of April, announces the revolution in Bogota, which is stated to have been the conse quenceof the principles proclaimed by Venezuela in November last, aided by the sentiments of the soldiery in their favor. The victory it is stated has prostrated the machinations of despotism, and established the glorious destiny of Venezuela, and the happiness of South America Georgian. A rumour which may, perhaps, be regarded as somewhat comfirmatory of the above, is very current in our city today On Saturday a number of Spaniards arrived from Norfolk in the steam boat Pocahontas. They had been taken from on board a vessel from Carthagena, in Hampton Roads, by a steam-boat by which they were conveyed to Norfolk, whence they came to Baltimore. Among them, or among those wno were left on board the vessel in Hampton Roads, report states, in the Liberator. We sincerely hope that it may be so We shall be glad to afford to the illustrious Patriot sn asylum from the blind fanaticism of his deluded country men. From the Baltimore Patriot. LATE FROM COLOMBIA. The packet bug Medina. Capt. Sul livan, has arrived at New-York from Carthagena, having sailed from that port on the 6th May. Mr. E S Burrows, passenger, who landed at Point Comfort from a Chesapeake pilot boat, in conse quence of head winds, reached their on Sundav night. Mr. B has obligingly favored the Mercertile Advertiser with late papers, and the following summary of the state of afiuirs in Colombia at the time of his departure. "The Bogota mail, which arrived just before the Medina sailed, brought an address from the acting President, Mr. Caicedo, recommending to Congress the recognitien ot Venezuela as a distinct state from Colombia. Immediately, the British, American, and Brazilian Minis ters drew up a remonstrance, notifying the government, that as soon as such an act should be adopted, they should be compelled to leave the Republic. This had effected great excitement, and it was hoped would be attended with the most happy effects, and prevent the separation, which if persisted in, must destroy Colombia. Those generally of the best informed, still looked to Bolivar to save the country. If he could not guide her, she would soon be reduced to the condition of Guatamala, Buenos Ayres, Chili, 8cc. the arena of civil war and bloodshed. Private letters on which the greatest reliance can be placed, stated, that the Congress would, the day after the mail left Bogota, invest Bolivar with supreme power, and place the fate of the country in his hands although one of the most distinguished individuals at Bogota, wrote, that it was not certain but the Liberator would in disgust leave Colombia forever. Gen. O'Leara had been appointed Minister to the United States. Mr. Burrows received letters three days be fore sailing to prepare the Medina for the accommodation of this Minister, family and suite, who would be at Carthagena on the 10th, to embark tor New York but as every birth in the vessel was en gaged, it was impossible to accommodate the Minister, and he would probably take passage in the next packet, the Athenian. "BOGOTA, April 21. On reaching this city, I find all in confusion some say the Liberator will leave the country in disgust, others that there will be a separation, Sec. 1 am only able to say that the clouds seem to thicken over this devoted country. If the mad project of a separation is sanctioned the country is ruined, and every foreign agent will be obliged to withdraw. Proclamation of General Montilla The Perfect General of the District of Magdalena to the peaceful people under his command. The first duty of man in society is that of submitting himself to the law which estabdsheJ the order with which the state must be conducted; for without law there is no order, and without order their is no society or government. From the moment in which unfortunately appeared the alterations which afflict the republic, every means has been consulted to save her from ruin to which she undoubtedly would be conducted by passions deviated from the principle object which is the supreme health of the country. You know that after having deposited your confidence in the Liberator President of the state, the wisdom of this first chief has not discovered other means to iosurc our happiness than as -

sembling or a continental Congress which would decide our fate. The glory of the nation, its individual guarantees, our fortunes, all we hold most dear, must be expected trom that august assembly, which is exclusively charged with the destinies of our country. You have already known the fundamental principles upon which the republic is to be organized. They insure our liberty and independence, and by them we shall be respected as a civilized nation. Neither the pretentions of Venezuela, will avoid the supreme Congress answering this sacred duty, whose wisdom is occupied in finishing, satisfactorily, the great er.d lor which they were elected. Union is the angular stone of this edifice, destitute of which the foundation will be but sand This Congress will manage these dissen lions by the councils of wisdom. It

knows that peace as well as the union are necessary to restore the name and the Colombian credit. If the central system is fruitfully admitted in Venezuela; or if itis necessary to substitute a federal form of government to save the union and peace between the two departments, you must not doubt, but Congress will with activity decide on the best measures. But in the mean time, it is necessary to preserve .the common tranquility, to respect the government, and to sacrifice for the country the pas sions of the day, the last that will be ask ed of her heroic sons. Whatever other conduct is adopted will be unknown by her laws, and considered ruinous and criminal. You must not hear the dis quiet genius which aspires to precipitate us in event that would be fatal to the sacred causes of the nation, because you will be responsible for the unhappiness before the severe tribunal of the law You must confide and expect every thin; from the supreme Congress, then you will see rise again the republic, the liberty, and the independence of Colom bia with spendor and brightness. MARIANO MONTILLA. Carthagena, May, 4, 1830. IMPORTANT FROM DENMARK The New York Daily Advertiser says: we have f een a letter, from an au'hentic source, which says that a Treaty of Compromise has been made with the Danish Government, for the claims of American citizens for Captures and Sei zures made by that country during the 1'e war. A messenger arrived in the last packet with dispatches from our Minister at Copenhagen, Mr. V heaton. and probably reached Washington on Saturday.
