Letters from Buenos Ayres to the 20th September have heed received by the ship Friendship, arrived' at the Cove of Cork, on her way to Liverpool. Si-. veral Spanish prizes had reached the River Plate:* among which are the Espeianza, formerly the Sin William Pulteney, frcm Cadiz to Manilla. • with the Governor and his suite oo board, captured alter an action of 12 minutes I had , *valuable cargo of quick silver, copper, wine, brandiet and some dry goods. Also ship Teresa, and sChoeiter Cons, captured by the Independent, and Sas Martin privateers, and both bound from litv.utibili to Cadiz, with : car goes of segu e cotton. coffer, &c. Yet to arrive, a small prize kern arvannah to Cadiz. Tile 'lade. pendenee and Corsa,. now fitting out as privateers,' are ready to sail again, and in a good state. Cap tain Bowles sailed on the 23d August for Chili. A large vessel, with arms and gunpowder, had arrived from the United States. The Portuguese still re main in Montevideo. A great number of vesseh were at Buenos Ayres, and among them 10 or 12 Spanish prizes , lying. in the roads. The two Portu guese Indiarnen, which were ordered to be released, had not left the River Plate. Mr. Mifflin and Mr. Worthington had arrived from the United States, with the nomination of Cons . ul.General to the United Provinces of South America. On the 7th Septem ber a heavy gale of wind was experienced in the Plate. Twenty-four square-rigged vessels were lying in the roads. A Spanish polacca ship, prize to the True-blooded Yankee, had-alSo arrived. By the same conveyance we have received a series of aszettes and other pipers, among which is the Exposition, published by the Supreme Director, Don Juan Martin de Pueyrreebn, respecting the state of Aff.tirs since be tame into office. This docament ha! previously reached this country through the United Stites, in contequenee of which - we have deemed it unnecessary to give a fresh translation. From an attentive pervid of the papers received by this op. pertunity, we ate enabled to present to our Readers the &Hewing summary of the political and military state of the Provinces of Buenos Ayres, op to Sep tember last : The Royalist army, under the command of cite Spanish Galena La Serna, still continues to tape. risen: in its retreat, banger, desertion, and ell kinds, of hardships consequent to a complete defeat. Its marches are slow, as well 'owing to the want of the Means of con -review. as on account of the attacks of thel'a!tion. - Accorling to *an official report of the lgth June from 'Colonel Roses, commander of a vision ht pursuit of the enemy, and addressed to the Commander of the. vau-guard,'the pound of fresh hide was then veiling in the enemy's camp at one dollar. 'Thedeserters add, that they bad been liv ing for some time . on mules And asses, and their means of conveyance so mush reduced, that they were compelled to destroy a large part of their stores and heavy baggage, and 'Lwow many ot their field paces into the riven. It was expected that the Roya lists would be, meat harder pressed, as soon as the 4 Commander of the van-guard of the Patriotic army had come up with the aid he had received from the General-in-Chief, owing to the want of which, and the immense distance of their supplies, the Patriots had not been able to reap the full fruits of the recent advantages gained over the enemy. The operations of the army acting in Tipper Peru were greatly facilitated by the success:l of the one labouring in the erphlsion of the Spaniards on the other side of the, Andes. 'The valuable fortress of Araeco, one of - the Southern Wets of Chili. had fallen into the hatids of the Patriots, as appears from the official diipatcb ot General' Frey'', of 7Si May. The Patriots lost lo killed, and tbe,Royalists SO. An official statement at the operations of the Pe rmilla army frail** 16th of May twthe 15th of 'lone, gives various details ofpirtial attacks * made& the enemy. Is a refereice . is made to the common': cation relating to the dating movements of Ciilonel Arai): deli kildrid. This Officer, after performing most difficult marches over deserts and craggy moostains, as many i•ceasions compelled to carry his artillery on tie men's shoulders ; after foiling the' l I Spaniards, who walled foe him in the defiles of Co 'again and Potod, had reached the, neighbourhood , at Citilqnkaras rafiltalad the province of Charcas, why,. by a faintly stratagem, be captured an ad. ‘ .110.11111 party, emonsanded by a Lieuteaant-Colonel. $O l ll,lllll (Kay) K. matte his attack on the 'city lII R Ont., and advanced as far as the main . . 41. :rending the heavy are be ex pe r i li it sa d weeketry, from the entesimilt plete t vide.% and tops of the homes.

We were obliged to _be brief yesterday, being pressed for room. To-day we insert farther particulars. Letters received from Barbadoes (via Demerara . ) of Oct. 27, say little of the injury there sustained, as it was, we believe, confined to a few of the shipping : bat they confirm in many fatal particulars the deplo rable intelligence of the loss of lees and ruin of property at St. Lucie. The Governor, Gen. Si:vs:min, survived but a short time after he had been Aug oat from the ruins of his house. Mrs. Savennut and her children were'saved, but all the rest of the (nuttily perished.— Major BURDETT, with his wife and child, were among the number of the killed. The birracks were level led with the earth. Those of the garrison who es caped destruction owed their safety to an order to evacuate the buildings before they had given way to the tempest. Bin every Negro house on the Island was blown into the air. The town WAS nearly a mass of•ruins ; the cane crops torn . up by the root, and the country laid waste as far as cultivation extended. The Secretary to the Governor had written a pressing supplication to Lord Costzlitsiene for supplies and assistance, on behalf of .the destitute inhabitant:. We mentioned yesterday bow dreadful the effects of the hurricane had been at Martinique, where every thing was reduced to a state of ruin, all the ships de stroyed; and many lives lost. Dominique having been,in the very track of the tempest, it is feared that there the ruin has been equalliextensivc ; but no di rect intelligence has yet been received from that and some other of the islands mentioned in the accounts just received, and which we have but too much rea son to fear have suffered most severely. We also stated yesterday that the Antrum:, Ad miral }UMW, for whose safety gait apprehensions had- been entertained, had arrived at St. Kitt's be fore the 12th ult. We are happy in being also ena bled to state that all the other British men of war on the Leeward Island station, escaped the fury of the storm. The following ofEciAl letter on this lamentable oc casion was atlddressed by the Colonial Secretary of St. Lucia to the Governor el Aarbadoes " Lucia, Orober XS, 11117. * Loan—Tfit Excelleney Majnr-Oeneral Sarmooa being unable so address your Lordship, in consequence of the very et Onus injury he received during the hurricane of the list instant, sun sorry to add, Terpliitle hope, are entertained of his rtcnvery), of which Isis Excellency bra directed me to give your Lordst•ip the particulars, and earnestly to entreat your Lordship's assistance and eopport towards ameliorating the situation of the unfortunate lohabitahts of this IsiLod , not omits( whom but has poffered severely thereby. " Scarcely a dwelling or nogro.linnee is left standing; the mills and outbril4ings either unroofed or razed to the ground; 'nearly the whole crop of "nes torn up by the roots; and the face of the island, which was luxuriant on the MOM, now bears the ap. pearanee of an Kuropean winter. " The tdwn, of Castrees is Dearly-in ruins, and the vessels, about twelve raU, are on shore, not one of which is expected to by saved. The wilt* of the buildings of Marne Fortune* and Pigeon Island were blown down, with the exception of the ma wine and tanks. " His SzceUenef and fluffily were taken from under the ruins of his residence (gbe Commandant's quarters) where he rema'nld, in the hope that it would have resisted the g.tie; but he has, un fortunately, soared fortis imprudence. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's most obedient baulk servant, (Signed) " I. R. BAIN IS, Colonial Secretary. . PA. saw *thing the above. I am sorry to acquaint your Larahip. that great fears are entertained that General Sarmoui Mimeo pass forty-eight hours." We learn Major Bnanarr and family are killed. Accounts have at length reached us from Domi nica, whence every vessel was driven to sea by the late hurricane, and-they had not returned when the gobeat mail boat,, that arrived here on Sunday, left that.island.- The interim of the country had like., wise suffered so materially, that unless supplied from' utber settlements, the dread of famine appears to be I entertained.

EXTRACT OF A LFTTER rßoll ANIIVIOCA, nATED :::T 67H NOVEMBER. " On the 21st ultimo, when we concluded the hor ricant season had passed over, St. Lucia was at tacked by a dreadful hurricane s , in which the Gover nor, his Lady, and child, isith aln:ost alfthe Kati. son, r fficers and men, were killed or wounded, and the island entirely desolated. The virile direfulevcat has extended itself to Martinique, Dominica, Vincent's, Grenada, and Ilarbadoes ; but Nino. it will turn out not quite so calamitous as at St. Lixia. The two fOrmer islands we are most alarmed for, from their proximity. The three latter are tai recut of the way of the hurricane track. aminica is most to be pitied, not having had such a serious misfor tone for the last forty years; and it will be an im mense time before the island is restored to its former state. The sugar crops will, I presume, be entirely rained for the next year, and the coffee-trees will be some years before they can bear properly. Novesrarit S.—Last Tuesday and %Vednesday we were blessed With the finest rains that could fall from the Heavens, Which continued for many hour:, and have done great good to the remaining crops."
