The following it given as the substance of them: Commodore HARDY had lately left Buenos Ayres, in the CREOLE frigate, for Monte Video, and was to sail from thence in the SUPERB, 74, accompanied by the CREOLE, for the Pacific Ocean, in the latter part of January. The Own, GLEtivowna frigate, Cap tain SPENCER, sailed from Monte Video in Decem ber, also for the Pacific. A French squadron, com posed of a 74 and one or two frigates, Went round the Cape, some time before, which was assigned as a reason for Commodore Haany's going. The British sloop of war SLANEY had arrived at Btienos Ayres, to afford protection to the British commerce. Most of the Deputies elected by the Province of Buenos Ayres for the Congress to be held at Cordova, in January, in virtue of the treaty of peace with Santa Fe, in November, had refused to go, alleging as an excuse the danger to which they were personally ex posed from the caprice of the populace. It was not supposed that anything effectual would bt done in the Congress towards forming a General •Oovernment. Each province managed its own affairs. Paraguay still kept up her system of non-intercourse s ith the rest. A RTIOAS had claimed some months before an asylum with the Governor of that province (Flux- CIA) for himself and a few followers, which was granted him in a generous and liberal manner. He had been completely beaten by the Portuguese, and lastly by RAMIREZ, Governor of Entre Rios, and it was supposed that his political career was at an end. The Govet nor of Buenos Ayres, RODRIGUEZ, was absent in the interior, prosecuting a war against the Indians, who have become of late very troublesome, and caused great alarm ; they had committed some horrid excesses, plundering towns, carrying off the women, &c. It was supposed that they were insti gated by CARRERA and other discontented anarchists. The public tranquillity of Buenos Ayres had not been disturbed since the bloody Revolution of the be ginning of October, but several persons had lately been arrested on suspicion of secretly conspiring against the Government. It was reported that RA MIREZ, with a considerable force, was on his way towards Buenos Ayres, determined to arrange its internal affairs so as to meet the views of the other provinces ; the prospects for the future were far from flattering—the Government paper was at an enormous discornt—the value of property much reduced, and the cultivation of the country greatly neglected. The last news from Chili was to the sth of Decem ber. SAN MARTIN with his army was at Ancon on the 9th November (a little north of Lima)—be was to invest Lima by land while Lora COCHRANE block- aded it by sea. It was reported at Buenos lyres that a Revolution - had broke out ih Chili, headed by the Carrera party, and that they had possession of Conception—these. reports were, however, vague and contradictory. The Spanish Legation sent out by the KING after the establishment of the Constitution, arrived at Buenos Ayres on the 4th of December, and left it in a precipitate manner in the night of the sth, without effecting anything—the Buenos Ayres Government insisting as a base of any negotiation that they should acknowledge their independence. From Hayti there are also accounts to the 22d of March. Affairs there still continued in a very unset tled state. The rebel General GEROME, who headed the revolt at Gonaives, was taken on the 15th, and, as he made resistance, was immediately shot by the soldiers who took him. On the 16th, a rebel Colonel and Captain were shot. On the 18th, twelve others, insurgents, were shot. President BoyEn, with_his Staff, was to leave Port au-Prince on the 23d, for the northern department, and would not return till the end of July. He had issued the following Proclamation : " Important events having called me to the quarters of Ante bonhe and the department of the North, I am therefore unable, in conformity with the 75th Article of the Constitution, to pro ceed to the opening of the House of Representatives of the Conn snons on the lst of April next. I have, therefore prorogued the alerting until the Ist of August following, when the Members Parsing it are invited to assemble. Gi. e n as. Port-au-Prince, 10th Mach. (Signed) " JEAN PIERRE BOYER, President of Hayti." Intelligent Gentlemen, who have recently returned from St.Pomingo, give a deplorable picture of affairs at that place, under the adninistratioa of BOYER, who is represented as a man of no energy or decision cif ch.uacter ; and his reputed mildness is not appre ciated as a very estimable trait by such people 4$ the I •. Haytians. At the Cape, the improvements intro diced by Cmusronta in manufactures, arts, and trade, had much declined, and anarchy, discard, and civil jealousies, with their concomitant train of evils, prevailed. The dispersion of the treasures amassed by the late EMPEROR, had tended to increase the ha bitual idleness of the people. It is stated as a fact, that one of the Generals plun dered from the Imperial Treasury four hundred thou sand dollars, before the Republican President took possession of Sans Souci. The College at the Cape had ceased its operations, and the learned Professors were dispersed. At Port-au-Prince, likewise, insu bordination, intrigue, and disregard of laws, were the order of the day. The army of l3ovaa was under bad discipline ; it was not uncommon to see an Of flier with gold epaulets, and all the ornaments of his rank, and at the same time bare-footed and bare-legged. All things appeared to be paving the way for some ambitious Chief to raise his standard, " cry havock, and let slip the dogs of war," and wade through rivers of blood up to the Throne. There is an inve terate hatred subsisting between the Blacks and Mu lattoes, the consequences of which are often noticed. GALE AT New ORLICANSA severe gale from the North-eau commenced at New Orleans on the sth of March, which lasted three days, and did much da- 1 mage. A brig from Nanta (name unknown), with a valuable cargo, and 30,000 dollars in specie, was lost. The Mate and five of the passengers took to the long-boat, and have not.been heard of since. The Captain and remainder of the crew are safe on shore. Several other vessels have also been wrecked: A Paris journal of Thursday was received last nigh by express, from which the following are extracts.— The other papers, due to-day, have not arrived. PARIS, MAY 3. According to accounts from Teriteswar, ortho 6th of April, the army of Prince Ypsilanti is stated- by the news from Moldavia to amount to 50,000 men, and thence they have marched to the banks of the Danube, whence they are stopped by the inundatioo. This delay, however, enables-many volunteers to join them. The Prince, it seems,bas published a Procla mation, couched in very modest terms, in the Turkish language, promising the Musselmen security fcr their persons and property, if they are quiet. It is said the Turkish farmers are inclined to favour the Greeks, being subject to the satne tyranny as they are. NAPLES, APRIL 17. We learn, by arrivals from Messina, that General Rosarolli has been forced to abandon that city. The Prince of Collereale, who is appointed by the King Governor of this division, has addressed Proclama tion to the inhabitants. The Provisional Government is at present engaged in disarming the inhabitants, and in watching the Carbonari. The execution of the first measure is rather difficult. Most of the in habitants of the kingdom hitherto chew no inclina tion to comply with the order for giving them up. The Austrians caused the adoption of this measure, because many of their soldiers had been assassinated. The regular troops obey and deliver up their arms— they are quite resigned to the order for disposing of their whole army, except the National Guard. The Journal of She 2'ox, Sicilies says, that the Austrians are beloved beyond measure (dire ,nordo) by the Nea politan people. We have received to-day Dutch Papers to the sth inst. and Frankfort to the 30th ult. from which the following are extracts. Accounts from Constantino ple, of a more recent date than those quoted in these extracts, state, that the GRAND Vat ER and the MUFTI have been dismissed from office, and that the Greek Patriarch has pronounced an anathema against YPSI• LANTI, Suzzo, and all their adherents:. CONSTANTINOPLR, MARCH 24. Within these few days, there have been several meetings of the Ministers, partly at ,the Grand Vi zier's, and partly at the Mufti's. All persons capa ble of bearing arms are called upon, and all Rajas (not Mahometan subjects) are disarmed. The streets of Constantinople are full of armed men, and the Ja nissaries are ordered to their barracks. The chiefs of the Greeks were yesterday assembled in the prin cipal Church by the Patriarch, who had received the strictest orders from the Porte, and an Imperial Pirman was read to them, which accused Michael Suzzo, Prince of Moldavia, of high treason, and pronounces sentence of condemnation on all his ad- herents. A Greek B4hop, and several Boyars, have been conveyed to the prisons of the Bostangi Pacha. In the course of last week, the Grand Vizier went to the Arsenal, and gave orders for the fitting out of part of the fleet, which is to be ready in fourteen days, supposed to be destined for the Archipelago. The press for sailors has already commenced. The heads of the Greek and Armenian Nations have been called upon to furnish seamen. The Persian Agent is sent to the frontiers, escorted by two Tartars. The plague has entirely ceased ; the hospitals are empty, STUTGAItD, APRIL. It is feared that our constitutional system may be exposed to new attacks from the Great Powers; but it is hoped that the King will maintain it finally. Count Frankmattstiorff, the Austrian Envoy, has repeatedly urged our Court to sappress the Neckar Gazette, which is almost the only liberal Paper now existing in Germany. However, he has not succeeded is attaining his object ; but it is apprehended that he way soon be supported by Russia, and then it will be difficult •to oppose a long resistance to the joint de mands of the two Imperial Colin& We learn from Munich, that a party, at the head of which are Marshal Prince Wrede and Count Rech , berg, Minister for Foreign Affairs, has decidedly shewn an inclination to favour Austria, but that the whole people of Bavaria continue to shew an evident aversion from more intimate relations with the Court of Austria. BALE, APRIL 13. The Government of Zurich has delivered a note to M. de Schsaut, the Austrian Minister, to which his Excellency has returned an immediate answer, containing the most satisfactory has been for some time past a very active correspon dence between the Government of Zurich and those of Berne and Lucerne, relative to the security of the frontiers, but things have now taken a favourable turn for us ; both the Austrian and Piedmontese troops being now removed from the neighbourhood of our frontiers. VIENNA, APRIL t 3. There is still much uncertainty in the accounts from the frontiers of Turkey respecting the operations of the Greek insurgents: all the accounts, however, agree is saying that they are very active, and that they have already collected considerable force.— Hitherto they acknowledge no Commander-in-Chief; each leader who raises a corps, considers himself as the Commander of it, and will not receive orders from any other. Ypsilanti has taken much pains to induce the others to 'recognise him as Commander in-Chief, but has not yet prevailed. This must neces sarily shackle die further operations of these Greek corps, of which there are now three in Moldavia. It is said that Ypsilanti marches with one corps towards Silestria, and that he intends to proceed towards Warna, to make himself master of the coasts of the Euxine, whence he expects to draw powerful aid.— It is said that the other corps will follow him in this direction. Letters from Moldavia say that Ypsilanti has spread a report of disturbances at Constantinople, and that there had been an affra*, in which the Greeks had the advantage. It seems certain that a large Turkish force is coming to Wallachia and Moldavia. FRANKFORT, APRIL 26. For some days past French Officers, not now em ployed, have been continually arriving in this city, ou their way to Poland, when they mean to go to Mol davia, and offer their services to Prince Ypsilanti. BRUSSELS, MAY i. The Secnnd Chamber of the States met to-day for the first time since the 24th of March, and after the usual preliminary business was gone through, the President stated that he had received a Message from his Majesty, accompanying a Project of Law, which contained the said 18 Articles, divided into several paragraphs, which was not read to the Chamber ; this Project contains the new system of indirect Taxes. The Clerk read the Message in the Dutch language. The Message explains the grounds of the law, and skews the advantages of the new system, which is the result of the Labours of a Special Committee.— The reading of the Message, which was referred to the Sections, took three quarters of an hour; it was then read in French. Spanish Papers to the 23d ult. contain the follow ing intelligence: MADRID, APRIL so. In a letter from Seville, of the 14th, we find the following passage—" A short time after the arrival of the Post, with news of the reverses of Naples, the sound part of this population were in motion, and, proceeding with a band of music to the Court-house, demanded, that as the persons disaffected to the Con stitutional System insulted the good, they should be arrested, and obliged immediately to depart, in the same manner as those at Barcelona. This was in fact carried into execution. The persons included in this measure being the following :—Arcediano de Niebla, the ex-Inquisitor ; Esperanza, the Canon ; Sesta Carovajal, Colonel ; and Serjeant-Major of the Provisional Militia, Elol ; and several Canons." A Mail from Oviedo has arrived, and it is said, that several suspected persons have been pointed out there, with a demand that they should be obliged to leave the city, to which the Authorities consented. We learn, that in the Secret Sitting of the Cortes, on the events at Valencia, the question did not regard the criminality or innocence of the representation of the Municipality, but merely to transmit it to the Government, to take such measures as the nature of the case demanded.—Miscellanea, April 21. APRIL 22.—1 t seems that the Government has re ceived, by an extraordinary courier, who arrived here to-day at noon, a dispatch from the Political Chief of Alava, stating that a band of factious per sons has formed itself an that Province, commanded by one Pinedo, a Notary; and that he had taken the most active measures to exterminate them. This will doubtleis be soon accomplished, these wretches having chosen for the theatre of their Quixotic pro jects, a country which is eminently Constitutional ; end surrounded by others, as Navarre and Rioja, in which the best spirit prevails. The National Mi litia alone are sufficient to put an end to this new farce. It is said, however, the Government, being desirous to re-establish at once the public tranquil lity, which has been so much disturbed in the Pro vinces of Burgos, and those adjacent, by the machi nations of the ill-disposed, has ordered the columns of Grenadiers of Old Castile to be assembled at Valladolid. By accounts from Ceuta, of the 11th of April, it seems that the party of Muley Zied is very strong in the Empire of Morocco, that he has been proclaimed at Fei, Mequinez, &c. that be was to enter Fez on the Ist with 10,000 men, that it as said he would be joined by another brother with 8,0(X) men, and match to Morocco; that lied had done no other harm in Tetuan than taking with' him the former Governor and one of his sons, ezacting 35,000 piastres from the Jews, and beheading 35 Moors of the opposite party, whom he had taken prisoners.— Nothing was known of the proceecEngs of Mulct' So- Email, the old Emperor, at Tangier. THE KING'S COURT. Saturday, MS MAJESTY held a Court it his Pala ce in Pall-mall, which was attended by The Lord President of the Council, the Lord Privy S e d. t First I.ced or the Admiralty, the Master-General of the Ord nance, the Master of the Mint, the Lord Steward, the Judg e .
