" By the scheme promoted by the Direct \"ortbera Railway Com pany it is proposed to bring York (to the n ,, rth of which city there is a population exceeding five millions) within the distance (as mea sured by tine), of four hours and a half from London; to reduce by 42 miles the distance now traversed by the existing means of railway communication between those termiui ; to lessen the distance as projected by the competing plan least favourable to the public) that of the Eastern Counties Extension by Cambridge and Lincoln) by 21% miles, and as projected by the most favourable rival scheme (that of the London and York) by ten miles ; and yet so to reconcile this result with local wants, as to place, without in any instance sacrificing the principle of directness, every town of importance in the districts to be served by this Company's main line nearer Lon don, either by means of the main line itself, or of well-de , ised lateral lines, than they are by the ..theme of the London and York, which, for the sake of passing through certain towns, pursues a devious route to York, thereby inflicting a serious injury on the country north of the Huraber. Thus the scheme of the Direct Northern Railway offers to the ^:orth of England, and to all Scotland, advantages presented by no other project whatever. These advantages it also immediately con veys to Bedford, St, Neots, Huntingdon, Peterborough, Stamford, Grantham, Newark, Lincoln, East Retford, Sheffield, Gainsborough, Doncaster, Pontefract, Selby, and Hull ; whilst it lessens by twenty eight miles the route to Leeds, the great manufacturing capital of Yorkshire, itself rapidly becoming the centre of an important railway system. With perfectly unexceptionable gradients, that in no case ex ceede.l 1 in 200, with upwards of sixty-nine miles of level on its main line, with no works of any engineering difficulty or of peculiarly ex pensive execution, with only 3,900 yards of tunnelling in eight tun nels, with no opening or swing bridces, with only one viaduct, anci that of 500 yards, and with remarkably easy curves, the Direct North ern It tilway, whilst its primary object is to unite in the directest manner London and York, will at the same time serve a rich, fertile, and populous country, will reciprocate the advantages of easy and inexp. nsive communication between the manufacturing towns of the north and the agricultural and grazing counties of eastern and central England. and will connect by the shortest route the eolith of England ai d the continent of Europe wills York, the north of England, and gcotland. The shareholder will observe the suggestion mede by Mr. Miller, which proposes to int:2dUCC a new element of safety, regularity, and speed into ra lway travelling, 14- Y the gopveyance of passengers and goods upon separate lines. This .."li6Veit" will, no doubt, receive •0 the consideration due to its importance the ""--" gess' . 11 .inee Mportant . " The Committee entirely concur with Mr. tite !+ DitSO , bearing which the Holborn Terminus project has Northern. It is in effect, though under different managemek.; tension of that line into the heart of London. By its means the Londu.. Terminus of tke Direct Northern Railway will be immediately avail able for the Post-office and the City of London generally (between Furl - lives- inn and Gray's-inn-lane), and will itself form a portion of one side of the widest thoroughfares In London, will be in the immediate vicinity of the Courts of Law and Inns of Court, and comes more into the heart of London, 'with less sacrifice of valuable property, than any metropolitan terminus which has been suggested. " In accordance, therefore, filth Mr. Miller's recommendation,. and in pursuance of the powers entrusted to them by their proprie tary, the Committee have taken steps to secure control over this project. satisfied that it affords the most central, and, at the same time, the most accessible and least expensisre London terminus. " The Committee refer the shareholders to the map accompanying this Report; ft fully showS the course and relations of the Direct Northern Railway, and its national character. tip to the 30th of November, all the standing orders of Parlia ment have been complied with ; and the solicitors report their per fect ability to fulfil all that remains to be completed within th 3 time limited by the Legislature. " Thus prepared, an I with deposits paid, and the proper deeds signed by a body of most responsible Shareholders, the Com mittee intend to make their application to Parliament at the earliest possible day, confident that a project of such undoubted public utility as the Direct Northern, in which the public service itself is deeply interested, will there receive what it only needs to ensure its success —a fair and impartial hearing." The following tables, appended to the Report of the Company's Engineer (John Miller, Esq.), will show the relative advantages of the Direct Northern in point of distances, as compared with its com petitors for legislative sanction; - And-wittresslsting lines. It may here be observed, that the distance between the cross of St. Paul's Cathedral, in London, and the centre of the Great Tower of York Minster, as measured along the earth's surface, is, according to the Ordnance Survey, 920,108.7 feet, or very warty 174 1 4 miles ; an that the main line of the Direct Northern, between London and York, is 176 miles.

The cloth is made of Llama Wool, known to be porous, yet naturally repellant of rain. In the neighbourhood of the extensive Wareroems, 114, Regent street, a few small shops are so far unprincipled as to assume a similarity of name, intending to impose up on s t rangers some trashy substitute. Messrs. Nicoll think it due to their own reputation thus to caution the public, and to suggest that a copy of the Address be preserved ; and they further offer a Reward of Fifty Pounds for the detection of a Positive Infringement.

S harmony which you are commissioned to re-establish be tween the two banks. We leave the choice of the means to your own experience. " I have only spoken to you hitherto, Monsieur le Baron, of cases in which the belligerent parties might voluntarily accept your mediation even after some uncer tainty. It is, in fact, not very probable that both will resist the friendly observations that you are instructed to offer. If, however, you shall meet with an unconquer able opposition, you are authorised to have recourse to the employment of force. You will address, at the same time, to the two Governments, an invitation, signed by Mr. Ouseley and yourself ; and if, within a certain given time, one of them has not consented to submit to your invitation, you will inform M. the Admiral Lain 6, Commander of the French naval forces in La Plata, who will take, in concert with the commander of the naval forces of her Britannic Majesty, such measures as shall be deemed necessary against the obstinate bellige rent party. The combined squadrons will, if necessary, occupy the rivers, and establish an effective blockade on either of the two banks of La Plata ; but the two Admi rals are enjoined only to employ the maritime means, which have been deemed sufficient, and not to effect any landing other than the temporary occupation of the isle of Martin Garcia, or every demonstration of the same sort useful to the success of the maritime operations. " Within these limits you might indicate on your own responsibility, and after having come to a preliminary understanding with Mr. Ouseley, such a measure as shall appear to you efficacious at a given moment, Admi ral Leine will receive orders to obey the summons that you shall address to him in writing. Copies of his in structions are anr exed. " It is expressly agreed between the two Govern ments of France and England, that neither shall seek to obtain, in consequence of this mediation, either a concession of territory, or any other separate advan tage. It is also agreed that if it is possible to avail ourselves of the novel situation about to commence, in order to obtain the opening of the streams of Plata to free navigation, the representatives of the two Great Powers shall occupy their attention with the question, but only in cases in which the opportunity may present itself naturally, and when the other difficulties may be overcome. It is, no doubt, advantageous to open to European trade those great fluvial channels which pene trate to the very heart of South America ; but that is, for the moment, a merely secondary interest, compared with those which are contending in La Plata, and it would be imprudent to increase in the outset, by any demand whatever, the uneasiness and distrust of the Argentine Government. " In conclusion, I enclose a copy of the instructions given to Mr. Ouseley by the Government of her Bri tannic Majesty, and which have been communicated to us. The intentions of the two Governments being in exact conformity, you will find in the instruc tions of your colleague what may be wanting in these. I need not renew, in concluding, the essential recommendation to maintain, on all occasions, a goad and cordial understanding with Mr. Ouseley, and to contribute, by every means in your power, to cause the same sentiments to prevail amongst the officers of the two squadrons. That is one of the principal duties of your mission, and the King's Government expects that you will attach yourself to its fulfi!ment with the intelligence and devotion of which you have already given so many proofs. " Receive, &c., " To M. le Baron Deffaudis, &c." " GUIZOT. summary of Captain Hotham's dispatch, given by Mr. Ouseley to the publishers. " The merchant vessels are still anchored at Martin Garcia, where it is ascertained they will have at least to wait six or eight weeks, until the vessels of war re • turn to convey them up, as it is in contemplation on the part of the latter, to proceed to the Bajada, and commu nicate with Paz ere their return. " Since the sailing of the expedition, the demand for goods has almost entirely ceased." FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

WHITEHALL, DEC. 24, 184.5, The Right Honorourable Sir Nicolas Conyngham Tindal, Ent., Lord Chief Justice of her Majesty's Court of Common Pleas, has appointed Thomas Llewellyn, of Tunstall, in the county of Stafford, Gent., to be one of the Perpetual Com missioners for taking the acknowledgments of deeds to be executed by married women, under the Act passed for the abolition of fines and recoveries, and for the substitution of more simple modes of assurance, in and for the county of Stafford. THE RIVER PLATE. The following are extracts of letters from Buenos Ayres, received per her Majesty's steamer Cyclops. " BUENOS AYRES, Nov. 13.—Everything is perfectly quiet here, and whatever may be the opinions against'the administration of General Rosas, there is but one against foreign intervention, particularly as regards the fereing of the river Parana, " The batteries and defences erected between San Ni colas and San Pedro, to resist the passage of the expe dition upwards, are said to be respectable, but, in our opinion, they stand no chance against the Gorgon and Firebrand, whilst further hostilities are to be car ried on on both banks of the river, wherever practicable, on the whole route to Corrientes. Armed whaleboats are stationed in the different creeks to surprise the merchant vessels in the convoy, as well as on the coasts and ports in the pro vinces of Santa F(3 and Lake Rios, and we much fear that without reference to the unfavourable result which the speculators may expect from the heavy quantity of goods of all descriptions going forward, that loss I t nd propqty wiil ! 3 f-'f=l l ftatly of the utetsthant adven turer's, Who; without the least consideration, have cons ;OM theruseir?S from Monte yiqeo in this (in our opinion) most hasardons enterprise, We shall, how ever, see the result before long. The war Blear the passage are said to have sailed. The convoy is assembled, at Martin Garcia, and will nq doubt wait there until the passage is free. No Brazilian vessels axe allowed by their authorities to join in the expe dition, " The ativices from Monte Video to the 10th inst., do not lead us to expect a change. Mr. Ouseley ex pects something important from England by the end of December. It is stated that the French are becoming lukewarm, and that the Baron Deffaudis does not second Mr. Ouseley so promptly as the latter could wish. "The Eagle had sailed for Maldonado, and it was ex pected that place would be occupied and entrenched. "Baron Mareuil, the French Chargé d'Affaires, dis sentient from the Ministers, was about to proceed to Rio. The proposals which he made were considered inadmissible by the Ministers ; at least so it is reported. " Advices are in town to-day, stating that the war vessels to force the passage of the Parana were off San Pedro, three or four leagues below the batteries. It is supposed they are waiting the French steamer Fulton, that was to sail from Monte Video on the 11th or :2th instant. BUENOS Antes, Nov. 14.—From advices received in town last night, it is presumed that the expedition attacked the batteries on the River Parana yesterday. " From good French authority, we are informed that it is not the intention of the Governments of France and England to send any expedition to these countries. They think that Rosas wishes to get rid of foreigners, and they therefore will attempt to show him how insig nificant this province will become wanting foreign trade, whilst by the opening of the River Parana they count on throwing the trade to Monte Video, where for the present a more liberal system exists. Meantime Buenos Ayres will continue under blockade. The realisation of such views as these will be attended with some difficulty; for whilst Oribe remains in the Banda Oriental (and this he will do as long as there are resources in that coun try, unless a formal expedition is sent against him, or his supplies through Brazil entirely cut oil), it is clear that there will be no trade in the State of Monte Video on any side. Then there is Entre Rios and Santa Fe, from which an army must be driven ; and having done so in the last province, it remains to be seen whether the interior states of this confederation will or not join the new league. We fear the Ministers do not well calculate the difficulties they have to contend with, and they have committed a grand mistake in laying hold of a party, who, with good intentions, can never obtain the preponderance necessary to govern these countries. In the event of Buenos Ayres being attacked, we believe it is resolved that if the force is overwhelm ing, to abandon the town, and establish a siege from Quilmes to Las Conchas, which would reduce us to the state that Monte Video now is in, and which you will agree would not be very pleasant. " All these things, however, must only be expected, in the event of no arrangement taking place directly with the Home Government, and in which we place some little reliance, as we think these people would make some arrangements in this way, which with the Ministers they could not accede to. " We have heard nothing lately from the Uruguay. The advices from the interior provinces continue of the most tranquil kind. " The packet is posted to sail positively on the 18th. She takes a great many passengers to Monte Video, and amongst these Mr. Ball, British Secretary of Legation, and Mr. Griffiths, late Consul here. " BUENOS AYRES, Nov. 15.—her Majesty's ship Melampus has arrived here this morning, to reinforce the blockade squadron. " We cannot help thinking that this Government has received some advices respecting the expedition. The alarm which exists here will not subside until the vessels have passed up, and many people are of opinion that some severe measures will be taken with English and French residents ; but we hope that although the people may feel themselves irritated at this aggression, they will be discreet, as such a course is for their interest. " BUENOS AYRES, Nor. 18.—We have heard nothing further of the expedition. There is no gleam here yet of anything like peace ; on the contrary, violent and energetic resistance seems to be the order of the day, and such will be carried on, fulfilling our prophecy that intervention and ruin were synonymous. "BUENOS AYRES, Nov. 26.—Advices are in town of the attack on and destruction cf the batteries on the Parana by the combined fleet, on the 19th instant. No details have as yet been made public here, and we are quite at the mercy of reports. It seems, however, pretty certain, tint , the loss of life has been considerable on both sides. Up to the present everything remains quiet, and we d o not expect that any measures will be taken by the Go.. vernmeut until they obtain direct advices from England and France. " This Government now permit the free importation of goods of all kinds from Monte Video, and on these and all other imports they deduct one-third of the duties. 'several adventures have been entered into, and win doubt be successful wil w l l , ll .vi st ,e t .l l l l lo e fl o e k e e t d —a. no the they o repda l interiorpyte u s e r t v e i r d 3 b a . y t y ll I h e g a w t aft : e : ri tr a wo r m3 ds s o a f t s the d s p at Parana cd convoy had been from this, but we doubt if such is true.

Richardson, formerly assistant to the Astronomer Royal, at the Observatory, Greenwich Park, and Ann Maria, his eldest daughter, were brought up en remand at Greenwich Police-court, charged with secreting the birth, and privately burying at night, in the garden of the male prisoner, a child which his daughter, the female prisoner, had given birth to at a house in Southwark. The female prisoner was brought in first, and placed in the dock, and accommodated with a seat. The first witness called was Elizabeth Reynolds, who deposed that she is a married woman, and resides at No. 3, Weston place, St. Thomas's-street, Borough. Mr. Richard son and the female prisoner came to her house. He said he wanted a lodging for his daughter, and nurse to attend her, as she was near her confinement. This was on the 13th of September last. He wished for a comfortable and quiet place, and a bargain was entered into to pay ss. per week for a single room, and Ss. snore for attendance. He gave his card, and said he would consult Mrs. Richardson, and call again. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson did, two days after wards, engage the apartment on the proposed terms. The female prisoner took possession of the apartment, and was delivered on the 15th September last of a male child. The child died ten days after its birth. The child, when born, was strong and healthy, and after the first week was seized with sudden illness. It was taken with violent screaming, and continued in that state all night. In the morning Mr. Wood, of Union-street, Southwark, a surgeon, was sent for, and came at half-past twelve He was present again at f eleven on Friday night, and on Saturday morning at four o'clock its mother called witness and said the infant was dead. Mr. Richardson and his wife came afterwards, and between three and four o'clock in the afternoon they went away together. The infant was subsequently taken away at night by Mr. Richardson in a blue bag. Witness told Mr. Richardson that it was necessary to get a certificate and have the birth registered, as also its death. He said he had done so, and given the child a name, but would take the body home to save expense. Could not account for the child's illness. Mr. Wood saw the child on the day of its death and the following day. The mouth was much in flamed. Richardson stated his daughter's name was Robin son, and that her husband was gone abroad for three years, and that he had agreed she should remain with his family after her accouchement, and until Mr. Robinson returned to England, as they had not commenced housekeeping. Mr. Wood gave a medical certificate. She applied for it, and gave it to Mr. Richardson or his wife. - Thomas Jones, labourer, deposed that Mr. Richardso s n , employed him to dig a hole in his garden. This wasiiile September, on Thursday or Friday. The prisoner said he was going to London. He said to witness, "Dig _a h o le is this corner of the gravel path." and four deep. He was to get it d the hole, and P water from the house. I dug en .

Witness waited, and Mr. Richardson returned, carrying a coffin under his arm, wrapped in two silk handkerchiefs. Amelia Richardson, aged fifteen, a very well-dressed girl, deposed that she lives with her mother and sisters, in Friendly-pace, New-town, Deptfrod. On the 27th of Sep tember she lived with her father on Royal Hill, Greenwich.. She saw a man dig a hole there in the garden. Witness held a light that night at her father's request, between eight and nine o'clock. Witness knew what was going to be done. Her sister Ann and her father went to the end of the garden together, and her father put the coffin in the hole, and put some gravel over it. She held the light. Nothing was said at the time. Had had no conversation about the child's death before. She asked what the hole was for, ancl her father said for the baby. By Mr. JEREMY—Her sister was much affected, cried„ Inc! said, " Poor little thing," alluding to th e b a b y . Her father has acted with great violence towards her as well as her sister, when not obeying his harsh commands. Mr. Mitchell said he had made a post mortem examination of the body, and had, since that, tried various tests, one of which with the view of finding arsenic, but it had been un satisfactory, and had puzzled hi m . He had since consulted the Coroner, who had determined to send the remains to London, to undergo a strict examination. The prisoner said he wished to OW , seriatim a statement of facts, from first to last, conceritog the charge. Ha never considered the birth or deefl of the infant had been con cealed. He merely waned that the body should not be thrown out of tk churchyard. He had no thoughts that the remainsw;Achl have been disturbed, at least, in his lifetime engaging a nurse and a doctor proved that there was no intention on his part to secrete the birth or death. His wife and daughter both had attended in engaging the apart ments. He then read several letters from his wife, daughter,. and son, showing the affection that subsisted is the :f which proved nothing s's to the alleged charges. Prisoner then said that he went to London on the 27th of September. He He afterwards got the coffin made and brv e gg er ,..; °wil regretted self by railway. He concluded by saying t si o ie de w p i l s o h r e e d th t r o ou sa gh y and repented of all the circumstance,p ar ticularly l °f for his large conduct.

POLICY OF FRANCE IN LA PLATA The following important and interesting document has been laid before the French Chambers : (Official.) • " Paris, Marcia 22, 1845. Monsieur le Baron—The two Governments of England and France, taking into consideration the inde finite durati. , !n of the war which is carried on by the re publics of Buenos Ayres and Monte Video, the interrup don of commerce which thence results, and the injuries of all kinds which the neutral foreigners established in those latitudes are compelled to sustain, have just con certed measures for the purpose of causing tteir media tion to be accepted by the belligerent parties. As every thing connected with the mediation is to constitute a s,parate question—a temporary mission—which will re maim independent of the function, both of the Chargé d'Affaires of France at Buenos Ayres, and of our Consul- General at Monte Video, the King has thought it his duty to appeal to your experience and your tried zeal fit his service, by appointing you, on my proposal, his Extraordinary Commissioner in La Plata. " Mr. Gore Ouselev, recently appointed Minister of her Britannic Majesty at Buenos Ayres, in the room of Mr. De Mandeville, and destined by his Government to fill the same mission as yourself, must have already set out to proceed to his post. You will, therefore, have the goodness to prepare likewise to set out as quickly as possible. Ilii Majesty's frigate Erigone, which is to convey you to La Plata, has r. ceived orders from the Minister of Marine to keep itself in readiness for sailing. You will, in the first instiince proceed to Rio Janeiro, in order to inform the Government of the Emperor of Brazil of your voyage. It is, in fact, in consequence of the communications of the Brazilian Cabinet, repre sented by M. the Viscount d'Abrantes, on the La Plata question, that the Governments of France and England, already occupied with the difficulties of the situation, and resolved to take it into serious consideration, have defini tively adopted the decision to interfere in common. I annex a copy of the dispatch which has been addressed to me by the Viscount d'Abrantes, and one of the reply that I have made to him. You will perceive therefrom, that, according to our first ideas, we had oonsented to the Brazilian Government respecti ng t h e agree ... After a more mature exatnina means of execution. t t i h o e n thetw interesto Governmentsof fßrazil itsel d e, eer i tt to = n yi:a n b y l mea surese, for which might become coercive w3O For*spi;ct to a neighbotning Government, and to leave F. snpe tlp4 England in the utmost independenou, AS well as the responsibility of action. You will explain to tl.e Im perial Cabinet the motives of our conduct, and you will inform it that our sincere good will towards it makes us attach a real value to keeping it accurately informed. 4 " Your stay in the capital of Brazil still taieessarily be short; and immediately after having discharged the im portant duties which call you thither, Sou will set out for La Plata. tin your arrival at Buenos Ayres, your first care will _be_ to put ynurselg. tornmu.niettOn with Mr. Ouscley, who will, without doubt, have reached that city before you. You will learn from him the actual state of the question at the hour of your arrival, in conse quence of the preliminary st, ps which he will have taken whilst awaiting you, and you will take measures with him for all those that will follow. You will habitually re side at Buenos Ayres, where also your colleague is to re side, in order to keep yourself in constant communication with him. It will .be easy for you to communicate from thence, in writing, with the Govercment of Monte Video. The Argentine is, moreover, the more consider able of the two states, which it is our object to reconcile ; it is undoubtedly, from its government that the resist ance to our mediation will arise ; it is the latter, at least, that will have to make the first sacrifice for the re establishment of peace ; and it will be advisable for you to remain at the seat of the principal difficulty, in order to labour more closely for its solution. " The object proposed in the first place by France and England is to cause the cessation of hostilities. " Mr. Ouseley is instructed first, to address to Gene ral itosas, friendly representations to this effect. To these you will add your own, which will derive a new degree of authority from the peculiar situation of France with respect to the Argentine Government. You will render General Roses sensible of the regard which the King's Government has not ceased to enter tain for him since the conclusion of the treaty of the 29th of October, 1840, of the, no doubt, use less, but persevering, efforts that have been made by our Consul General at Monte Video, in order to maintain in a state of neutrality the French sub jects who wished to take arms against Oribe ; of the re• sistance which we have opposed for the last four years to the efforts made in France itself to influence public opinion, for the purpose of driving us to interference. You will inform him that our intention is by no means to recommence what the treaty of 1840 happily termi • nated ; that we are not the allies of the present Go vernment of Monte Video against him ; that we re cognise, in common with all sensible persons, the neces sity that has borne him to, and which maintains him in the Government of his couutry, that we have waited as long as we could, in order that the war might terminate of itself; but that we arc no longer justified in waiting any longer at present, in face of the sufferings and the reiterated requests of those of our nation who have remained neutral, and that we are compelled, .for the interest of our commerce, as well as for that of humanity, to put a period to a state of things which has become intolerable. We are inclined to believe that the Government of Buenos Ayres will acknowledge the evidence of these facts. You might add, that in the conversations that have taken place between the two Governments on the subject of mediation, we have always taken care to make all the provisos necessary for preserving the honour and the interest of the Argentine republic ; pro visos that the English Cabinet, moreover, has admitted with perfect good faith. You will inform him, in fine, that his own dignity, the future prospects of his power, and his very devotion to the American cause, counsel him, in our opinion, to yield with a good grace, and not to prolong a ferocious contest that is con demned by the whole world. The condition s that he will obtain in the final arrangement, after having taken the initiation in the work of pacification, will be neecs ' sarily better than if he persists in exciting every interest against him. You will assure him that, in the negotia tion, we will spare no pains to obtain the concession to him, in fact, of the best terms possible, but at the same time remindin g him that we have recognised, as we ll as England and Brazil, the indepe n d ence of t he Eastern State, and that we can admit nothing that puts that in dependence in question. " Even although Mr . Ousele y should have failed, be fore your arrival, in his attem p t at friendly persuasion, you will yourself make a further endeavour. If General Roses yields to these reasons ; if he consents t o recall General Oribe and to order his army to evacuate the eastern territory, you will undertake, without delay, in concert with your colleagu e, the ne g otiatio n of an arrangement between the t wo re p ublics . Here, the resistance will no dou bt change .its nature you will have to contend aga inst the claim s of the present heads of government of Monte Video, exalted by an unexpected deliverance. Yo u will not h esitate to reduce suo`i demands to their proper value ; you w ill de clare that the two great powers have nOt interfered t o satisfy local animosities and emigr ant rivalri es, but t o establish peace upon solid bases, and to ensure the ma i n _ termeee or order epen the two banks of La Plat a . , you will say, loudly and firmly, that far from taking part in favour of one of the two republics aga inst the other the two cabinets are determined to guara n t ee the security of each of them for the future, as well of that of Buenos Ayres as that of Monte Video. " Consequently if the Government of Buenos .Ayres *ins it neeesSerY to its repose to b4flisil f ront t h e ' eas tern territory the Argentine Tefueißes that are to be found there. you will admit the leptinaaey. of thi s oiatm, and accept it as a condition of petsOe.

On the other hand, if the Eastern Republic claims, on the part of Oat of Buenos A y res, guara n t ees against future aggressions, you will take car e to give to those guarantees such a form as shall appear to you the mast serious and efficacious.
