On - the 30th of October, afar having been for a considerable time mild and mciatiji. dry, it began to freeze towards evening. N.,at day the weather being fine, Reaumur's. thermometer-was at 4, of cold, and twenty-four hours afterwards 10. On the 31st drift ice appeared in the Neva, the brides of boats were carried away, and the communication between the different quarters of the city was thus interrupted. On the 2d November the river was quite frozen over, but the ice was not strong enough to bear wall(' rg onit. Neat day a temporary bridge for foot paswngets was laid from Wasiliostrow to the Admiralty side, but on the sth of November it thawed again. Thus the communication was again interrupted. The thaw continued, and since yesterday the river is quite clear of ice, so that boats navigate in all directions. The coarse of "Esc!purge has been rising for some time, which is attributed to the great exportations of torn from Odessa and• Riga, for which drafts are generally drawn from this capital. .T 111: EVI:AING STAR.

For such further particulars respecting the late Riots, as have tranipired since our • Report of yes. terday, rtf:r our Resders to the details in another part of this Paper. Some of the daily papers have given revrts or twb speeches, said to have been ad dressed by a Dr. WATsos and his Son, to the mis creAnts who proceeded in a body from Spafields on Monday. aori produced so much alarm in the Metro polis. We avoid their imrtion for several reasons: the langnage put into their mouths is such as, in OW opinion, should not even be repeated in the ears of the ignorant : the individuals will pro. bably be yet put upon their trial, and the minds of those who may be called to sit upon them as a Jury, should not be • pre-occupied with state ments which may not be well founded. We have great &obis as to the correctness of the speeches at tributed to these individuals—and for this reason : we had our Reporters stationed in different parts of Spit.6:lds, to observe what was passing. One of them chanced to be close to the waggon from which the nob was addressed ; and, as we stated on Monday, then was but •as :fader. This might have been the . 7isess,..er W*Tsow, for the speaker was a youth ; lout the elder WATS H 4 did not speak—or, at any me, not from the" coal waggon. We have A lready given the substance of what the young man aid. His speech was short, violent, and ended with, *I'D() you want a lerider? then follow me!" on which he jumped from the waggon with a tag in his hand, sad set off with the mob at his heels. The nest news we bead of this party was their assault upon Mr. Baccirmes shop in Skinner-street. after which fol lowed all the disgraceful scenes which have been laid before our Readers. • From all the circumstiolces conrioe doubt that, at least, in, the attack made on Mr. BECKWITH'S, the Orator, whoever he was, who bad volunteered himself as a leader, was present and probably very active. The more we consider the event; of Monday, the more we are • ltd to congratulate the public on the vigilance of the Government, the LORD MAYOR, and o: her Magistrates. It is impassible for the imagina tion to picture to itself the honorsi• d evils to which this great Metropolis would inevitably have been es posed, but for the anticipatory prudence of the Se eflItTARY of STATIC for the Rome Department, and the vigilance, zeal, and activity of the Loan MAYOR, and indeed of the w hole Polite of London, West. sninster,-and the Borough. Nor will the active veer fans of Sir JAM= SHAW, and many other spirited in. dividuals, in support of the Magistrates, be easily effacer:l.Front the remembrance of their fellow-citizens. Flow different .the conduct of our Magisirates and citizens on this occasion. from that which took place when,Ltird Gamma GORDON'S rabble spread them selves over this Leviathan of Cities—and how diffe. rent,in consequence has been the result ! Tuesday there was a Meeting of the Householders •of Mary la-Bonne Parish. The business was opened by Mr. Hymn, in an excellent speech, and several' Resolutions, in favour of the Distressed. were carried. Upwards of £4BO was it subscribed, and Messt O. MARSH, SIESALD, and Co. of Bernees-street, were appointed to receive subscriptions. A Meeting of the Parishioners of St. Bride's was also held on Tuesday; and a subscription was entered into for the relief of the Poor of that Parish. Meet logs have also been called for the *bate laudable pt.rpobe in several other Parishes. AFFAIRS OF..sotWg AMERIC4 3 . • : Letters and' Newspaper* ere .the 11th septembo have arrived from the River Plate. At that date, Monte Video had not been, occupied by the Porto. guts., as sated in the accounts received on Tuesday . from Barbadoes. The report stated to hove reached Commodore BROWN, and which induced him to sail for Barbadoes, might have arisen front the circum ,stance of some Portuguese parties having taken pos session of the small forts of Santa Theresa and Sas Miguel, within the Buenos Ayres frontiers, and ad. vanced flying parties to within fifteen l:agues of Maldonado. Having a large sum of money on board, the fruits of his long cruize against the ships of the Mother Country, he would naturally be induced to avoid entering the River.—The last intelligence re. ceived at Buenos Ayres of Bemire was, that he was' off the Gallipagos Islands, in the South Seas, and expected home: The letters state that the greatest activity prevails among the Independents, who were making every preparation to repel the Portuguese, should they ad. vance. Captain Bow Les, Of his Britannic Majesty's ship AIIPIOON, had completely done away with the ill impressions left by the former Commander. Mr. Seariats had begun to exercise the functions of Con- Lel General, as was understood, in c onsequence' of instructions from England. 1)IAz Vet.Ez and Doz ens° have b e en c ompelled to evacuate Santa re. By this arrival we have received a copy of the Act of Independence by. which the United Provinces of La Plata renounce their allegiance to Spain, sod erect themselves into a Sovereign and Independent State. We subjoin a translation of this Document : " ACT OF INDEPENULNCE OF THE UNITED PRO. VINCE 3 OF LA Ptak l'A, RENOUNCING THEIR AL. -LEGIANOZ TO SPAIN. 44 In the worthy City of San Miguel del Tucuman, this 19th day of July, ISIS, the ordinary sitting being ended, the Congress of the United Provinces conti. nued its former deliberations respecting the great and august object of the Independence of the Towns and Disuicts constituting the same. The anxious wish of the whole country fur its solemn emancipation from the despotic power of fie Kings of Spain, was evi dently universal, constant, and decided : the Repre sentatives, nevertheless, consecrated the whole scope of their talents to this arduous affair, as well as the rectitude of their intentions and the interest required by the sanction of their own fate, that of the repre. scatted towns, and of posterity. At the close of the discussions they were asked, whether they wished that the Provinces of the Union should form a nation, free and independent of the Kings of Spain and the mother country Filled with the impulse of justice, they first exclaimed in the affirmative, and then each one severally reiterated his unanimous, spontaneous, and decided vote for the independence of the coun try, by signing the following : L DECLARATION ; " We, the Representatives of the Wnited Provinces in South America, assembled in General Congress, invoking the Surname Baum who presides over the universe, in the name and by virtue of 'the authotity of the DiAricts we represent, protesting also tn Hastirith and lb the nations and men of the whole globe, the justice by which our wishes are regulated, do solemnly declare in the face of the world, that it is the unanimous and indubitable will of these Pro- vinces to break the galling bonds which united them to the Kings of Spain, recover the rights of which they had been dispossessed, and take upon themselves the high character of a na►ion, free and independent of King Ferdinand VII. of his successors and the mother country ; and consequently to remain, in fact and right, vested with full power to adopt the form of Povernment required by justice, and demanded by the urgency of circumstances. " All and each one of the said Provinces do there. fore hereby proclaim, declare, and ratify the same, binding themselves through us to the fulfilment and support of this their will, under the assurance and guarantee of their lived, property, and reputation. Let the same be communicated for publication, and' from a motive of respect due to all nations, let the' weighty and impulsion motives which have led to this solemn Declaration, be explained in a Separate manifest.

FRERCII PAPERS., Last night the Paris Paws . .of Sundiy arrived, and ab - out Otani this day those of Monday reached as. We subjoin the following ',ducts': • PARS% DECEMBER 1. The King is still confined by the gout. but his Majesty continues to do business every day aith his Ministers, and receive persons at Court. There was no Pub ie Sitting yesterday of The Chamber of Deputies. Some of the Bureaux have commenced the examination of the Election Projet. The King of Spain has invited the Courts of Sar dinia and Naples, the'King of the Netherlands, the Courts of Petereburgh, Copenhagen, and Stockholm, to accede to the Defensive Treaty of Alliance against the Barbary Settee. The Court of Assizes of Versailles has be just occupied with two cases of murder. The illness of one of the jury occasioned one of the trials to be re• terred to next Session. The culprit, in the other case, fell down deed while his sentence was reading to him. This m'sereble being had wished to appro• priate to himself the 'succession of a father-in-law , who had overw÷elmed him with berefits. One evening he penetrated into the house of the old Gen. tleman, who was seated near the fire ; he struck him a blow, so violent, that he fell under the grate and expired. Immediately the monster collected various combustibles, and endeavoured to conceal, under the ashes of the pile, the body of his v;ctim : but scarcely had lie left the house when the fire went out, and next morning the dead body of the old man was disco vered. The unnatural son-in-law had the effrontery to present himself : he raised the dead body. placed it in such a way as to make only one half of the face visible, and said that the old man had died of a rup. Lured blood vessel. The officers of justice, however. soon arrived, replaced the body in its first position, and perceived a frightful wound—suspicion arose— the son-indaw was arrested, and soon the spots of blood with which his clothes were stained appeared ; the effects stolen were found upon him ; his perturbed countenance, his despair and remorse, left no longer to justice any dnubt as to the kind of death he had suffered, and the culpability of the son-in law. He had, as we have said above, been condemned to death. The day for the triel of General Decaen, new in the prison of the Abbaye, and that of Savory, now in Egypt, is not yet fixed. Great activity has recommenced in the Cornmer c4l relations between the United States and the King dom of Naples since the mission of Mr. Phikney, who has obtained all the satisfaction which circumstances admitted of the United States nbtaining from the So vereign of the Two Sicilies. Since that period, seve ral American vessels have taken on board in Sicily the produce of the conetry. They speak' of a treble duty being imposed on the merchendize exported from the Kingdom of Naples by English ships. This measure has for its o!sj pct the revival of the maritime commerce of the N:alinlitans. The French Ale snacks for 1817 announce three <_ , xtreordinary WO tides: namely, on the sth of A 4 sril, 11th October, and 9th November, paiticu larly if high winds prevail. The same publications alsq give the following mimes table of the population of Paris for 1815 : Of 20,000 children (as nearly as possible) born every year in Paris, 'lO,OOO only attain the age of 20, and 6800 attain the age of 45. One fourth of the children born die within the first year, and one-third never attain two years of age. We are sorry to learn, that notwithstanding all the boasted efforts of the French Government in support of Vaccination, deaths by Small Pox form a formidable item in thit Bill of Mortality. The Calculator proceeds to draw the inference, that if the whole population of France be 29 millions, the middle term of human beings who attain the age of 20 years is 251,690.

Yesterday, being SOnday, several presentationi to his Majesty took place. It is said that Camille-Jordan has been called by his Majesty to the Council of State, and that M. Benoit has ceased to form part of the same body. • One Spenler, a farrier's journeyman, has been con demned to two years imprisoliment and to five years surveillance, for announcing seditious and lahe in telligence. In the month of August last, being in a public-house, he propagated the orlon alarming news. His manners rendered him suspected by the land-lord who denotinced him to Counts A. and It. It was agreed to decoy him to the Nublic-house again, when Count R. announced himself as an Officer of the Ex-Guards. Count A. concealed himself to hear what passed ; Spenler then praibed the pretended ex-officer for not joining the Royal Guards, announced to him a . ipeeify change,' knd promised him Ai: protection (forsooth l ). 1 in obtaining a better epaulet, i. e. promotion. Bo• naparte, he added, had escaped from St. Helena. tie had placed himself in Poland at the head of a numerous army, had already beaten the English, and was marching upon Paris, supported by 40,000 Hun garians.
