At the end of December Bolivar reached Margarita Island with some Venezuelan exiles. Once there, he issued a proc- lamation convoking an assembly, for his paramount desire was to have the military power subordinated to the civil government. On January 1, 1817, Bolivar once more set foot on the continent, this time never to leave it. The lessons learned through failures had been well learned, and new plans were taking shape in his mind. He was thinking of the freedom of all America, not only of ...Venezuela, and started plans for the freedom of New Granada and Peru : all this when he had no soldiers to command, except 400 men under Arismendi, to which 300 were added by conscription. He advanced towards Caracas, but was defeated, and had to re- Digitized by VjOOQ 1C 100 SIM6N BOLfVAR turn to Barcelona, leaving all his war provisions in the hands of the enemy. He then had 600 men, and he knew that an army of over 5,000 royalists was advancing against the city. At first he thought of re- sisting the enemy, counting on the help of Marino, who was at that time in the South, and who, in fact, hastened to the rescue.
