Cam&m <0a;ette* JUNE 9, 1817. MA S'jMC UXIOA. It is with pleasure we are enabled to pre sent the Brethren with the information that the Union of the two Grand Lodges of tliis State has been consummated. The following is an extract of a letter from the IVoxy of Kershaw Lodge, No. 55, to the Master, dated Cfiariei*ton\ od June t *? If is with tin usual delight 1 communi ?rate the pleasing intelligence of the Unidff - of the two Grand lx>d^es. They assem bled on Friday night last, and every thing ? *vas conducted with real Brotherly love and harmony : and the report of the Joint Committee is that we are both one and ?. the same body the same family. This v - report was in eacii Graad Lodge Unam moiiMly ugreed to ? whereupon in each the articles ofUni6n were also unanimously adopted." We have received Wesley , and it affords us pleasure to publish anything that may contribute to the, entertainment of our re ligious patrons, and tend to the promotion ' , of morally and religion. We hope to be gratified frequently by communications of this character. - . * . An- Ambassador 'from the new Repub lic has arrived iri the United States. \ According _io the official account of the ? ? ? commander of the Royal forces, the des truction of the Patriot* at the taking of Barcelona was immense ; amounting to one thousand men . We read of no prison ers have been taken on this occasion. The" Patriot accounts acknowledge the loss of " l>ut lhrertundr*<d, and state that theRoy alists refused to spare eveh tfl? women and < , ? children. TW Patriots of fofnamhuco are pro pressing with firm atfd steady steps to wards the maintenance of the Independence they have so nobly acquired. They have abolished all titlfs of nobility, and the only title known there at present is Patriot and Compatriot. The provincial government has issued an addresslo toie- people* calling 0*1 them by all those skat should ^ * m ' ^ -aV * VJ \ . . yi ,V >. j',. # influence (He Tiearts of Freemen to make a manly struggle inthegjreat causc of Li berty ; to establish 'U 'on an < imperishable basis or nobly to perish in the attempt.? Not a vestige of sovereign authoi^iy re mains in -tHe province. The provisional government hare determined to organize and maintain a regular arirly of 13,00# men? which in the province of Pernambu co alone will be seconded by well ref lated militia of 40*0pfc.

Kuay tn<^ Chili ; and Peru cannot long re sist the example of so glorious a combina .* tion. Thus the new world is destined by all bountiful providence as an asylum for the per sauted of all nations, and the resi . dence of that noblest of all productions, a free and independent race of men. . :JY m The last accounts from Au&oitura state, that the Royal army attacked the Patriots, \ %hd in about fifteen minutes were totally * destroyed ; the general of thfc royal forces V %hh difficulty escaped, with one hundred persons ; his loss is about *000? ttie place in want of proVfribhs, fcnd all shut up in the Caatle. ' ?? In justice #to our correspondent ,lcmt*chu9 and by his request, we republish a ?<frw lines of his production with Ae correc. tion a few typographical error*. We ;have received a second communication containing some observations of the reason given by us for dectltig (he publication of his first. Wt t$e| to fye excused from . iroT* puoitsmnp; his last, t? it is rather personal, and we cannot depart from the rule that has hitherto governed us, not to insert any thin^ in our columns that can possibly t*nd to wound the feeling? of any pe\*on. Mliis is our only reason as the author in this piece has profited by the .ob jections'" we made to hrs first w The human understanding In the insuf ficiency of its verge towards perfection without any aid except the obscure light of nature, was necessarily involved in , est incongruity. Jn this juvenile age it is natural to sup pose that the mental optic in endeavour ing to perforate the almost impervious film which opposed its proximation to the ha ven of correct reason, received so formi dablesa repulsion that the return of its vis-> ual rays on the rracto was so precipitate as almost to discourage its tuture es- . *ays."

By a late arrival .from Vera .Cruz, we havtj obtained more exact information up on the true situation of Mexico, than that forwarded by thr Spanish insurgentsvpub luhed in their papers ynd repeated some of the North American Journals. We learn that jn spit* of the famous ex pedition of lQ*QQQjnenvshipSvIngalesv8tc* the arrival of wffich was emphatically but erroneously announced uncjer date of ) March 24, at New- York, a single schoon- I er brig, under the independant flag, block* aded Vera Crue, and has taken several pri zes, one with 28,0?0 dollarsTtx specie, and intercepted a correspondence, w:*ch pla ces the political situation of the country in its true point of view. . In one of those letters the royalists say "the fire of insurrection increases, and is not likely to subs de as was hoped# The insurgents make use of every amnesty > granted them, only to escape to their comrades again on the first opportunity." It appears the republican chiefs have found the necessity of centra authority : general Rayon, report Rays, has subjugated all the province />f Valladolid. A new gene ral has been sent to the province of Vera cruz. * .
