ABDICATION CP THE LIBERATOR.
Head-Quarters, Caraccas. Feb. 8, 1827.
To bis Excellency the President of the honorable
- Body of the Senate. '' r
Mod exteltent Sir : In no former circumstances
has the august authority of Congress been of
such neces-sity to the Republic, as at this present
period, in wh,ich every m:nd has been disturbed,
and the whole nation agitated by internal com
motions. - j
Called by your Excellency to take the oath of
office as President of the Republic I arrived at
the capital, whence I was speedily summoned
to the departments of the ancient Venezuela.
From Bogota to this city, I have issued d4f'ees,
so important that, I make bol l to declare it of
the greatest moment, that your Excellency
should calf the attention of Congress to them,
and request that body, from me, to take them
into their wise cons'der tton. lfI huve over
stepped the boundaries of my - authority, the
fault lies solely with me : but I willingly conse
crate even my innocence to the safety of the Re
public. This sacrifice was required of me, and
I gl-ry in not having delayed it.
When in Peru, an official notice brouglUfme
intelligence of my elevat;on, by the iPe;ple, to
the Pres dency of the Republic. I declined toi the
Executive power the acceptance of the Chief
Magistracy of the nation., For fourteen )rears
have I fulfilled the .office of Supreme "Head, and
President of the Republic ; dangers forced I this
duty upon 'me,' which no longer existing,, leaves.
me at liberty to retire to the enjoyment of
vate life.
pn
the I beg of Congress to cast a regard , upon
Situation of Columbia, of America, and of the en
tire world- - Every thing seems to flatter - us.
There is not a Spaniard upon the American Con
tinent. Domestic peace has reigned in Columbia
since the commencement of the present year.
Many powerful 'Nations recognise our pohiical
existence, and some are joined to ur in the bonds
of amity and friendship. A large portion of the
American States are in- Allia.ice with- Columbia,
and Spain is at present menaced 'by Great j Bri
tain. What more can we hope for? The womb
of time can alone cunt in the immensity of happi
ness which has been prepared' for us by. a bounti
ful Providence, in whom is our only reliance.
As or me, suspicions of a, tyrannical usurpation
rest upon, my name, nd distub the hearts of the
Colombians. Republicans jealous of their liber
ties, cannot consider me without a secret dread,
because the,paea of h story "tell them that all
those placed in similar situations- hae been1 am
bitious. In ain do I wish to propose the exam
ple of Washivotos as my defence ; and, in fact,
one or m.ny exceptions can effect nothing against
the experience of the world, which has been: op
pressed by' the powerful. I sigh between the
the distresses of my fellow-citizens, an i the Sen
tence which awaits me in thtr judgment of poste
rity. I myself am aware that I am not free from
ambition t'and therefore I desire to extricate
myself from the grasp of that fury, to free my
feilow-citiz ns frotO all-mequietude, and to; se
cure after my deatli that reputation which t may
be entitled to for my zeal in the cause of liberty.
With such sentiments, I renounce, . again 'and
again, the Presidency of the Republic. " Con
gress and the nation must' receive this abdica
tion as irrevocable. Nothing will be nble to
oblige me tolcontinue in the public service, to
which 1 have abeady detteated my entire life'
And now that the triumph of liberty has, placed
this sublime right within the enjoyment of every
one, sludl I alone be deprived of it ? No : The
Congress and the Columbian People are just i
they .will not compel rne. to an ignominious de
sertion Few are the days which now remain to
me ; more than two thihls of my existence has
already passed ; let me, therefore be 'permitted
to await a peaceful death in the obscure and., si
lent retreat of my paternal residence.'- My sword
and my heart will, nevertheless, be always ; with
Columbia, and my last sighs will ascend to: . Hea
ven in prayers for her continued prosperity.
I pray, therefore. Congress and my fellow-cit
lzens, to confer on me. , the title ot a private citi
zen. ; - -r !;

In a late London paper, is published an
extract from the will of a Mr. Eberlee, a
chlebrated Surgeon, in which; from a warm
spirit of devotion towards the science he
professed, he bequeathed his body to his
anatomical friends for dissection: It con
cludes as follows :
This I do as a last tribute to a scienee which
I have delighted In, and to whicit 1 now regret
having coiitributed so little ; but if this example
which I have set and design for my professional
brethren, be only followed to the extent I wish,
I am satisfied that much good to science will re
sult from it ;Tor if medical men, instead Of taking
care of their own precious carcasses, were to set
the example, by giving their own bodies for dis
section, the prejudice which exists in this coun
try against anatomical dissections, and which is
increasing to such an alarming degree, would
soon be done away with, and science proportion
ably benefitted as the obstacles were removed.
N iy, so far do I think this a duty incumbent upV
on every one entering the pi-otension.thal I .would
h ive it, if possible,, framed into a law, that, on
tafcing an examination at a public college for li
cense to practise, whether pay sic, surgery, or
pharmacy, it should be made a sine qua noil, that
every one taking such license, shount enter into
a specific agreement that his body snould aft.er
his 16ath, become the property of his surviving
brethren, under regulations instituted by, au
thority." c - ' ;. ' - ' -
