The ebief one of these is that of Messrs. Baily & Castilioy through whom the prineipal part of the European and American trade is conducted. The hospitality aud kind- vexs of Mr. William Baily, of this firm, to all strangers arriving in or departing from the country, has made him 8 general favorite, and will cause him te be held in grate- fal remembrance by all who have the pleasure of forming bie acquaintance, and spending a fow days with bim Here | was detained several days, awaiting the arrival of mules, several trains of which were detained beyond the Kio Montagua by a flood., The rains, for this season of | the year, bave been unusually late io the interior; the pivers have risen ‘o ® height searcely ever before paral leled, and the destruction to property has been immense.

The txo great parties invo which this republic is divided are called the liberal and the servile parties. The former are by far the strongest in point of numbers, and are sus: tained by the States of Salvador and Hoadaras, but the latter are by fur the best educated and the most wealthy. It unfortunately happens that when the liberals cet into power they disagcee amongst themselves, and conse quently are soon ousted. ‘The servile party, on the other hand, manage things much better, so far as retaining office goes. There can be no doubt, however, but that the object of this party is either the establishment of a monarchy, ora re unioa with Spain. In fact, the present Minister of Foreign Relations, Don Manuel F. Pason, is, and has been, streining every nerve to accomplish one of these objects for years,twith the hope of dying with the title of * Count” affixed to his name.g Dor riguez, also # minister, was, some time since, bought over to the interest of the hing ofjthe Belgians, and now sports the bauble he received in the shape of a ribbon dangling at bis button hole. ‘The Jesuits, who were admitted here about eighteen months or two years since, have taken sides with the monarenicai party, and the influence they are al: cady exercising is almost unbounded, the majority of the leading families here are in their interest, and there is no telling where their projects may end. In fact, this government is a republic in name only. Currera, the so-called President, is a Dietator, aud is sustained in his course by the strength of the servile party. The influence of the Jesuits is, however, beginning to alarm him, and it ix possible that he may be yet compelled to throw himself into the arms of some other party io order te sustain himself against their machinations.

Since the departure of the American schooner, Julia Ridgeway, and the Dani-h biig Lootze, on the Sth inst., for your port, by which vessels we had the pleasure of writiz few lines, nothing of great importance has occurred, nor has any change taken place in the prices of pro- duce since that date. The semi-weekly packet from Laguayra arrived this morning, having left there last evening, but she brings no news from that place nor from Cw nor any notice of the arrival at aayra of an) American vessel. The bark Paez, Philadel phia, and the brig Ellen, from Baltimore, are, how ever, momentarily ected. Should General Pierce make any change in the consulships of this country, we do rely hope that he may examine well into the character and qualifications of the many applicants who will un- doubtedly otfer their kind services for the good of our country. We learn that applicati and appli- cants greedy for these consulates, have gone forward from Laguayra and this place.
