 Posture of the qfairs of Colombia.- We have just received ,advices from that distracted country in letters, one bearingsdate the 7th of April, another the ,1th of May, and third the l4th.- t'The. interim little more than q month brought about a revolution transferring the government from the Anti-iiberals to the Liberals.

 The intelligence of the first date says:-'sThe Liberals and Anti-lberals are arrayed against eae!l other, aid both parties say 'szrar to the knife. .n- Whichswlll gett the ascendency is alto gether uncertain. One day the chan ges appear i'll favor ofone side, and the next in favor of the other. We hear very little news, and know not what is going on. However, there has been some fighting not far of, and there will be more no doubt. The Liberals gain ed small advantage, but theaffair was of small consequence. Ten days ago two detachments of the government troops (the y4aai-htcrols) met in open daylight, and fought four hours before the mistake was discovered. think d month will settle the business for the present, but not 6nally.n

 The whole country is divided and split up into factions, following its par tieular leader-our correspondent goes on to say of them

 s'Each has his partizanS and eqeh b ets feet his purposes, scould not hesttate to ruin hls country. 1t io yet called a republic the Republic fCoiomhia-but Colom- Ebia hasnot existed for some time. There fare seven or eightindependeut concerns, each one independent and each headed by chlei, who is as peremptory and despotic as the Ottoman Porte-indeed much more so, for i. Turkey they pay some regard toancient usages and much 10 the naaxinls of the Koran-but here their own good pleasure is tine only law known or obeyed.

 .'l fear that the efeetaal emancipa- ton el Spanish America will turn out to be rather.a dream of patriots and phi ianthropists, than a realized and con summated blessing. The spirit of re- form and regeneration now abroad in the world, may in time reach these countries and redeem them from op- presslon and ignomiay to which they are now subjected. The people here q have said it oftenl are. think. the best in the world-the mildest, the most amable and most pacific, though when reused, capable of the most incredible efforts. They have suffered incalcula- ply it. the revolution; they sacrificed all-liyes, fortune, every thing, and they begin to ask "what has it all avail ed?' We have fought and blcd for % years. and what have wegained but ex- change of masters?

 .Bay 7th, IS3ls--ssThe affairs of this country are bad enough, though better than they were lately. The Liberals are Tn poweragain, having vanquished their enemies at all points. Last week a battle was fought about 100 miles from Bogota, which they gained, almost annihllating their adversaries. There may he more fighting though, and if there is,it will be in.or about the cap- ita..s'

 Our correspondent, in his letter of the i4th, gives an account of the march of the army of the Liberals at Bogota, and the submission of the anti-iiberai government.

 on to-morrow, says our correspon- dent, the troops of General Moreno and Lopez, accompanied by some thousands of delighted citizens, wiIlenter the city. and nearly all it's officers, together with all the English officers here, will receive thelr passports 10 leave the country.- We now hope for the immediate resto- ration of the anion.n
