 X general order, dated Bogota, l4th Oct. strikes from the military roll the names of Co.'s. Jose Maria Gayton and Thomas Marray. The req sons assignedis, that they have gone to Popayan, to net under the iguonnious and bloody flag oi the assassins of Gen. sucre.

 A ARegistro Extraordinary of Nov. 18th states that on the 25th of October fifty men, two oAi- cers, and one hundred and fifty muskets, belong ing to the < iaetionsts'' in the Canton of ye-s Icz (Socorro) were captured by detachment oi government troops. On the 29th treaty was signed, by virtue of which the said Canton ac- knowledged the paramount authority of the lib- orator, and of Gen. Urdaneta as the acting Tx ecutiye, until Bolivar should take the command. Accounts from the Department of Cauca state, that two companies of the Vargas battallion. who were then at Irlsa, under the command of Manuel Vargas, had declared in favor of the Llbcratof, except three officers, who immedi- ately proceeded to Popayan.

 The department Assembly of Cauca, on the 18th November, passed resolutions proclaimlng Simon Bolivar, President of Colombia, with the powers necessary to reorganlze the republic, and 10 free from the evils in which it Is sunk; observing the constitution and laws, so far as is not absolutely inconsistent with that ohIect.- Until the Liberator takes the command, they confer 1t upon Gen. Ufdaneta, who Is already in the exercise of executive power. The De pertinent of Cauca has been considered less fa- vorable to the Liberator than any other Depart- ment of New Grenada. Similar acts of pro- yinces, towns, and districts, were pouring in from every quarter. Almost every number of the 3ogota Gazette mentions several. On re- ceiying the intelligence from Cauca General Urdaneta addressed the following communiea- tion to Gen. Bolivar

 BoaoTA, .No0. 21, 1880.

 Ereelle4 ,sir.-The documents which have the honor to enclose, will make you acquainted with the political state of the valley of Cauea its decision iA favor of your Excelency-fnd its desire that you will hasten to take charge of the government and the destnes of Colombia. .... Permit me to urge your ExceEeney anew to accept the trust which six Departments, con- sututing an apdonbted majority of the repab- llc, (which your Excellency was waiting for.1 have already conferred upon you. They have declaredin your favor, both by acciamations and by written acts, and from you they expect tie reorganization of Colombia, it's welfare, happi- ness, and prosperity. These hopes must not be frustrated. our Exeellency has promised to serve fhe people as citizen and as soldier. II IS the duty of q citizea, as your Excellency well knows, fend your whole life is acontinuai proof that you 50 understand t,) to make whatever sa- crltices he is able for the good of the country; to obey Its voice, and 10 yield to the authority of the Supreme power, which resides in the people. What they desire Is already manifest, and your fXcelleney cannot disappoint them without neg iecting his promises.

 The indeeision of your Excellcncy under such circumstances, is prejudicial to Colombia and its tranquility. ltproiongs the evils of separa- ton and division, which will never cease til your E3ceIlency IS at the head of the govern ment; and indeed it may augment these evils, by producing still farther divisions, which once created 1t will be difficult to heal; for new in- terests will spring up, which cannot be annihila- ted except by force, and thus the ruin of the Re- public will be complete. Surely your i1xcellen- cy would not be willing that the present and fu- tufe generations should charge these evils upon yourself; or that your name, while t appears in history with glory as the founder of Colombia, should also be read with disapprobation, as hay- ing consented to the destruction of its own crea- ton. entreatyou then, for the sake of the country, the fruit of your trumphs and prowsss, for the sake Of the glory you have acquired by this nagnaEimousachieveme for thesa}se of your own honor--that you will decide at once to accept the trust which has been committed to you by your fellow citizens, and save the Re public from the dissolution which threatens it unless ) you aeeede to the wishes of the people.

 Charged as am with the provisional govern ment, find myself feontnualIy surrounded with difficulties which your Excelency would not have to encounter. A constitution has been given iorm my guidance, which being made for Go lombia entire, has been adopted only by part
