CAMDEN.
THUHSDW. OC I'QBKH 1819.
From the Spanish Maine.
The editor of the Baltimore Pat
riot has been favored with the fol
lowing intelligence communicated in
a letter under date of r
ST. THOMAS, SEPT. 13.
Since your departure there are no
arrivals from Margaritta, and we are
apprehensive that place is still block
aded ? part of the Spanish fleet
having left Porto Cabello for that
purpose.
Yesterday we had an arrival from
Santa Martha, which confirms a
previous account w e had received of
Boliv ar\s success. Having heat Sam
ana in several severe actions, he
took possession of the ^ity of Santa
Fee, and was well received by its
inhabitants Samana escaped with
only two followers; our victorious
general l>olivar, following up the
blow he lias already struck, has
since taken Papigan and Mourpox.
and no doubt but he has ere this
. hoisted the fla% of liberty on the walls
of Santo Martha. _V '
The old English Admiral, Camp
bell, returned from Laguyra on S a
turdny Inst, with the Spanish schoon-a
er Josefe under convoy. A It is saltl
tbey have between them fine hundred
thousand dollars in specif besides
indigo, and ? great jr.anv Catalans
came in the schooner. * "We arc led
to think that General Paez has heed
at work again. *!t is said befell in
with a division of Morilto'a troops,
about four or five hundred and not
one returned with the information. ?
The Taking of Manta "Fee was not
^hnown in Caraccas, when the lialis
bnrv 64 sailed. Morillo no ?? donbt
will feel a little om>W*ant when lie
hears of this. | should not be sur
prised at his quitting the province of
Cararcas altogether, and to embark
for Carthagena.
The flour market in this place still
keeps good. By the cargo, B8 1-3 ;
to-dsy, retail, 9 itr-thef* Irf not
much here, it heins> bought tip for
? Barhadoe*. We have several ar
rivals here since your departure,
'principally assorted cargoes.
, By Captain Denny, of tb? schr.
James H. McCnlloh,for8t. Thomas,
the editor of the Patriot has been
put in possession of the following
memoranda. He received it from
Qaptain Joseph Jf King, commander
$Mhe regular republican brig of war
General Urdaneta,* who boarded
him off St. Thomas, on the 30th
** August.
- ?0n (he Hth of July the squad
ron lef i Margaretta, after having em
barked (he British and Gorman le
gion, amounting (o altout 1800 wen.
On the 10th (he troop* were landed
a few miles to windwarrf of the Moro,
for the purpose of taking the city of
. Barcelona ; on the morning of the
46th they marched for that purpose,
nnd the sam*day about 11, A. M.
the fleet weighed anchor. and sen(
* in boats about 150 seamen to land on
the shore, to attack the heights of the
Moro, who were attacked and fired
upon while landing, by about 60 in
fantry pf the efiemy, who immedi
ately retreated as we fose (he height.
The |riftce was taken by us, consist
ing of about six regular batteries,
with 8 or 4 of temporary defence.,
mounting a number of 18s, 24s, and
small brass picces. Our loss, ?
wounded (not mortal! v) and h num
ber of the enemy killed, 40 prisoners,
and 150 deserters. The city 6f Bar
celona was taken without any loss.
On the JB8th the forts of Moro were
blown up, guns destroyed, and
troops embarked. 80th, sailed for
Cumana; on the 2d of August land
ed the troops a short distance from
Cumana in the evening, and on the
3d, A. M. the fleet got under weigh,
and shortly after commenced a can
nonading on the flecheras and batter
ies, which wan continued H days by
the most part of the squadron, des
troyed three of the enemy's flec-hcray
and silenccd several of their batten
gjjns.-**
The upper fort at f^umana was
at; 4 a. il n4\ part i>f the troops, who,
after a waim action tot* an hour, re
trented, not being able to take pus
cession of the "same. The rest of
the troops tell iu v*ith a party of
bpaniards, who intended to join the
enemy, and. out of about 300, 40
escaped to tell them the news. Our!
loss in killed and wounded, on shore,
was about 10 ? in the fleet, about 3
wounded, not . dangerously, 'the
place was evacuated in consequence
of the difficulties attached to mount
ing battery guns on the heights ; and
the troops are marched to Angostura.
v On the 44th August arrived at
Margaretta a part of General l)*Evc
reux's command, consisting of about
500 men. ; There are several men of
war on their way out from England
to join the squadron. A 7*> named
tlie General D'Everenx, a 44, % fri
gates, 4 corvettes, ami 3 brigs, which,
ere this, in all probability, have ar
rived. Tlie subscriptions have bcetf
made to a great aiuouut in Liverpool
and Dublin, supposed about two
millions sterling."
k'
?, It is calculated that 200 hands by
machines w ill spin as much cotton, a*
twenty millions could have done 40
years ago, with the common spin
ning wheel. The work now done
'in Great tirituin in this v.ay would
'require sixty millions of hands in
[the old way. It Wfuvther calculated
'that tlie manufacturing machinery of
I all1 kinds, in England, does the
w or^of hundred millions of ar
tisans, without machinery.
