United States; and at the same time MT. Charles Bfesson, Envoy of the Kina of France to this Republic. On the of' casion, MT. Moore addressed the Libe- rator as follows:--

 Permit me, sir, to present to you my congratulations on your happy return to Bogota, and on your having put an end to the cause of your absence-the war with Peru, which you have 50 hap. ply terminated; re-establishing at the same time friendly intercourse be, tween the two republics.

 To one like me, animated with the most fervent wish for the welfare of tbia Republic, the presence of your Excel lency in the present critical circunstan. ces of the country, is a powerful motive of reorganization. The Congress to whom the high and arduous duty cf forming a government adapted to this nation,is is entrusted, is now sitting in thi, Capital, and hope will be able, with the help and support of your ExceAen. cy's experience and exalted patriotisn. to form system of government, found. cd on the basis of liberality and glory. such as will ensure to Colombia all the blessings ofeiyil liberty. Representing a country, which, like this, has secured it's independence after protraeted war. fare; which has passed through all the vicissitudes and difficulties of a revolu. tion; and which, after having under. gone ali the evils inseperable from great political changes, has succeeded in es. tablishing form of government simple and economical, yet safe, and securing to it's citizens all the social and public rights the human race is capable of ef. joying-thenee tis that naturally take soliyely an interest inthe fate of coun- try, which, in its present condition, as. sineilates so nl' te ::sii, at ;st tic tine its struggles were over. This is sen. timent common to the people Of the U. nited States, where all unite in admin. ing the frmness, talents and patriotism displayed by your Exoeiieroy, and your companions, in the recent sanguinay war with Spain; and in no one does this sentiment prevail more thaninthe breast of the venerable patriot who presides over our Union.

 Permit me to manifest to your excel. leney the satisfaction l feel, that during q your absence my communications with tllls government have constantly beenof the most frank and friendly kind; and to assure you that l shall make use of my best efforts to maintain the cordial relations which so happily existbetween the two countries"

 To which his Excellency the Libera- tor answered-That the lively interea which he feels, and which animates tfB Republic to maintain and preserve the friendly relations with the Government of the United States and it's Presiden, will be eyinced and best expressed by the Congress now assembled, by estab. fishing form ofGoyernment which will give universal satisfaction to all the friends of liberty.

 LAGUIRA, Jan. 3l.-s Gen. Arismen- di arrived here yesterday, for the pur- pose of chartering vessels to take about 200 men from Puerto Cabello to Ma racaibo. Troops have been sent to the frontiers. Gen. Bermudez ison hiswag here with about 2,000 men--so that fl Bolivar should arrive here, he will in all probability meet with warm recep. tion; and he is not likely 10 let the brightest gem (Venezuela) fall from his diadem, without a struggle. Yet should he arrive suddenly before the l gates of Caracas, there are numbers who would hail him with joy; it is impossi- ble to tell who are faithful and who not. Paez is strongly suspected--in the at fair of the separation, he has neither by word or deed, committed himself in any way so as to offend BoIivar.-PhH Goz.

 The New-York Mercantile of the 3d March, says:-" When the OIive sailed from Laguayra, Feb. 2d, " great excite. nlent prevailed on account oi GeileIlli 1" Paes collecting forces to oppose the naorcs I"9f BoJivar, who it was said had reach ed Bogota from Peru. A proeIana' tion by Paez to form Consultation, da- ted January lSth, is in our possession, ss but owing to its length, and being in 1" Spanish, we cannot give extracts"
