Despatches from Puerto Cabello and Cumana Campaigns
Reports from Puerto Cabello and Cumana recount a battle involving General Morillo and a Patriots force of about five hundred, with a larger Royalist thrust of two thousand. The Patriots allegedly retreated while hundreds were cut down or captured, Morillo fleeing to Cumana. Additional dispatches claim decisive Royalist defeats at Cariaco and Ca Tupann, with officers and armaments captured, and Morillo’s forces routing after Calabozo. Other notes touch on Paez’s campaign, and broader Atlantic intelligence including Lord Selkirk and economic data from Liverpool and Glasgow port activity.

Paris Deputies Election Scrutiny Shifts Power Balance
London evening dispatches report the Paris results from the Department of the Seine showing Lafitte as the sole candidate yet to secure an outright majority, with de Giesenstef, Perrier, Manuel, and De Constant also prominent on the tallys. Ministers fear defeat, delay votes, court Royalist support, and argue that public backlash exposes their weakness. Russia seeks a Europe‑wide pirate suppression league while Atlantic news notes declining forces in Amelia Island and Charleston amid disease and trade slowdowns. The era’s turbulent politics and global tidings echo through the week’s papers.
