RANGOON. Rangoon is the principal sea-port town in the Birman empire. The streets of the town are narrow. The houses are raised on posts from the ground ; the smaller supported by bamboos, and the larger by stout timbers. All-the Officers of Government, the most opulent suer chants, and persons of consideration, live within the port; shipwrights, and people of inferior rank, inhabit the suburbs; and one entire street, called Tackally, is exchisively assigned to common prostitutes, who are not permitted to•dwell within the precincts of the forti fications. Swine, which do not belong to any parti cular owner, ate suffesed to roam at large, and act as common scavengers, devouring the filth under the homes, and towering the parish contracts. Rangoon may be called the Isle of Man of.lndia, having long been the asylum of insolvent debtors from the different settlements of India. It is crowded with foreigners of desperate fortunes, who meet with a friendly reception from the Birmans, and for the most part support them selves by carrying on a petty traffic. Here are to be met with fugitives from all countries of the East, and of all complexions Malabars, Moguls, Persians, Parsees, Armenians, Portuguese, French, and English. The members of this discordant multitude enjoy the utmost toleration from the Birmaps, who have no desire to make proselytes, and never discuss the reli gious opinions, nor disturb the ceremonies of any other sect, provided they do not break the peace, or meddle with their own divinity—Gandma. The foundation of Rangoon was laid by the vim. rious Alompra, the first of the present Birman dynasty. And it is also named Dzangoon, whie.h.signifies victory achieved. The Birmans being. like other inhabitants of the East, fond of processions, scarcely a week passes in which there is not a religions display at this place; either a funeral of some person who leaves sufficient to pay the expense of a pompoui public burning, or the ceremony of admitting youths into the Convents of the Rhabaans, on which occasions parents and friends spare no expense. In the same street may be heard the solemn 'voice of the Mnezim, calling pious Islamites to early prayers, and the bell of the Portuguese Chapel tinkling a summons to Romish Christians. Processions pass each otber without giving or causing , offence. If any. reli gious insult is offered to a Mussnlman, the offender is put into the stocks; and if that has not the power of calming him, he is bastinadoed into tranquillity.—Seel Symes s Embassy to Ava, and Hamilton's East Indian Gazetteer. • SOUTH AMERICA. The packet from Buenos Ayres has brought private letters of a late date. The account of the defection of -the Royalist General, Olaneta, in Peru, received lately by way of Panama, is disproved by an article fiom Potosi, which represents that General AS still in that city . in the middle of May. This article states that' Olaneta, in the exercise of- his functions as Viceroy of Upper Peru, had appointed native Americans to the Governments of Chuquisaca, Cochabamba, La Paz, and Santa Cruz. It is not easy to divine his object in this measure, which is certainly of an equivocal character, !and may even be the prelude to a deign on his part of erecting that portion of Peru into an independent Go. vernment, with the supreme authority vested in his own person. We find no other notices besides this of the Royalist army, and no advices could cf course be ob tained from Lima through the district which they occu pied. The intelligence from Lima and Lower Peru at Buenos Ayres was all obtained by way of Chile. and dues not come down to a later date than the departure of the United States' ship Pranklin from Callan. We learn therefore few facts not previously known It is stated that the Montoneros, or light native cavalry, attached to the army of Bolivar, were so numerous and active is the neighbourhood of Lima, that the Spaniards were unable to convey provisions for the use of the garrison of Callao, without employing an escort of two or three squadrons of cavalry. The port of Callao continued. as before stated, to be blockaded by the Peruvian fleet, under the command of Admiral Guise. At Valparaiso, great exertions were used to equip La Isabel, formerly the O'Higgins fri gate,.of 4.5 guns, and to dispatch her to reinforce the Peruvian squadron before Callao. With this addition, '1 was hoped that a capture might be effected of the ',vanish sl ys of war the Asia, shottly expected to st rive in those seas, but of which, although an anxious look-out bad been kept, no tidings could be obtained. Due gratitude is expressed to his Catholic and Apos tolic Majesty, for sending so fine and useful a s. ip there, to augment the strength of the Patriot -quadron. The Chilian Government was also raising trooos, and equip ping transports, for au expedition in aid of the Colom bians in Peru. Besides the captute of the Quintanilla privateer, there had been taken by the brigantine Coo- grew,. on board of which was General Miller, the Spanish armed ship Vijia, fitted out at Choice, and in which were found 150,000 dollars in specie. General Freyre had not arrived at Santiago, but was daily ex pected there when the post left for &limos Ayres. A Senor Pinto, who held the Government of •Coquimbo. had been appointed Chief Secretary 1.1 State, bus hod expressed an unwillingness to accept of that office, General Benevente. had left the capital, to persuade him to take the charge upon hies, and. to succeed him in the Government of Coquimbo. The Government at Buenos Ayres was employed in organising and increasing the force to be stationed at Salta for the protection of the frontier, in the event of any successes being obtained by the Royalist forces in Peru. The measure was not. however, considered ne cessary, but rather an excess of precaution on a point that involved the security of the Provinces. Well-in. formed merchants in Buenos Ayres felt persuaded that the Spanish cause was lost in Peru from the period when the dissensions took place among the Commanders of the Royalist army. The only danger, and that ap pears to be far from a formidable one, with which Buenos Ayres • was threatened, was an incursion of the Indians. TwO persons who had been carded off by the natives, but escaped after a captivity of some weeks, and arrived on the frontiers of the province on the 10th of July, made depositions before a Magistrate, or Judge of the First Instance, that during their detention they had overheard the Indian in whose custody they were, discusng a plan for a general invasion ..f the province ,of Buenos Ayres, to be made within " three moons" by the horde to which he belonged. They were able, how ever, to give no information of the numbers of these savages, nor of their state of preparation tor such an en. terprise. The Government thought it eight, neverthe less, on the credit of these depositions, to take all possi ble measures of precaution. The Government Securities and Bank Stock at Buenos Ayres, had undergone very extensive fluctuations, but continued to maintain very nearly the high value to which they had risen on intelligence that the negotia tion for a loan in England had been almost brought to a conclusion. The extreme point to which these secu rities had risen was 95 for the 6 per cent. stock, and 2,700 for the Bank actions of 1,000 dollars each ; the first subsequently fell to 87, and the last t 0,1,950, but at the period of the packet's sailing had recovered about 3 per cent. of that depression. The great question which has been so long pending in this part of South Ame rica, as. to the place where the General Congress was to assemble, and which was to form, therefore, the centre of the Federation, has been decided, according to the private letters, in favour of Buenos Ayres. The repre sentatives of the province of Buenos Ayres, in order to encourage the navigation by steam-vessels of the Rio de la Plata ' had passed a • decree exempting th at c l ass of vessels front port duties for ten yeats, from the Ist of January, 1825. EXTRACT 01 A :ITTER FROM VALPARAISO, MAT 14.. ,4 His Majesty's ship Cambridge, 82 guns, reached the harbour of this port on the 3d of this month. after a very fine passage of only thirty-five days floor Monte Video. This large ship proves to be an excellent sailer, and a good sea-boat. She will, probably, be at Callao by the Ist of June. The late accounts from Lima, by his Majesty's brig Fly, Captain Martin, report' that General linliii was moving to Truzillo southward, to meet General Canterac with an army of 12,000. men, full ~ t cote& dente, and depending on a support of 6,000 m le, all or mostly Colombians. The force with Canterac is not estimated so high, but that officer is considered to be the better tactician. Some rencontre decisive of the in fluence and party to prevail ,tor a time in Peru, is ex pected in the present or ensuing month. • " The names of Bolivar, Miller, Canterac, Valdez, Olaneta, and Rodille, will now be heard of, and make for a time some figure in the story of • Peru. The Royalists told the Independents (or Corstitutii.nalists) have each some differences of opinion, and of personal interests or rivalries. " General Rodille, the Commandant or Governor of Lima under Olaneta,- the Viceroy appointed by the King of Spain, has recently expressed to the British mer chants at'Callao his dispositimi to cultivate an inter course with Great Britain, and to protect her traders, ' and favour their•commerce. He cannot do better for! the comfort, interests, and advAnta4e of the country `' • which will receive from them much more in value an 4 l utility than they can return.
