A most horrid con Spirecy of the Europeans was discovered, on the very eve of its being pet in `etecittiott. Alzaga, so notorious in the annals of Buenos Ayres, was' at the head of it, and, had success attended it, was to haie been declared Vice Roy. A general and indiscri minate massacre.was to have taken place of all the Creoles, wl v should refuse to take the oath of alle-' giance to him ; the plot was so general, that very tew-Eueopeans escaped being implicated in it, either through inclination, or from threats from Alzaga. They were discovered by a Negro, whom they at tempted to bring over-to their yteivs, on which they attempted to escape, but most pf the principal ring leaders were discovered in thelr hiding places, ahho' some must have got ow to Monte Video. • A Darbon Friar was a principal instrument—h . * , was taken, and in order to save his soul and die ill peace, confessed every thing, and declared the names! of all the persons whom he knew to besoncerned, which, of course, implicated is vast number of peo ple—the prisons were absolutely so crowded, they knew not where to put thera all. " Twenty-nine individual's have teen pnblicly shotp And their bodies afterivards exposed on a gallows, treated for that purpose on the Plaza Grande, amongst. whom were several characters of eminence and wealth: Although it is now a month since.the discovery, pe ts : ple are being brought in daily from the Pampas, having been found in small parties of six or eight; with arms upon them. If. the smallest success had crowned their first efforts, the Creoles would have had a very tough job to have defended themselves, at there were nr: more than 600 men under arms then in town, and the English would, in all prob ability, have shared the fate of the Creoles, as Alzaga was Potoriously no friend of ours ; however, with those that have been banished, and those that have fled. we have - veey'few European Spaniards. now in this city. Great credit is due to the Government and Creole inhabitants, for the moderation shewn on this alarming occasion, and you doubtless will be sur prised to heir, that no outrage has been committed by them on the Europeans. " Lord Straniford's interference, (by orders from home) *ith the' Vince of grazils,7relative to the Withdrawing the Portuguese troops from the North east side of the river, has given very great satisfae r tion to this Government.

By accounts from Comer, a heavy cannonade had been heard from the west side of Langeland, which began in the morning between eight and nine, and continued till about one o'clock at noon.
