LATE AND INTERESTING.
FROM SOUTH AMERICA.
[Communicated for the Fail. Gazette.]
1 he latest intelligence front the River
Plata received at Rio Janeiro was down to
the 11th September, broogh by the British
schooner Misletoe. dispatched with advices
of.iecent events, inform t ion of the exist
iug st iae of iffiirs, an l for fresh instructi
ons to the British cbm Handing naval officer
there, for his government under circumstan
ces equally unpleasant and critical.
The Junta of the piovince t,f Paraguay,
pursued a hold and vigorous policy, un em_
pered by lenity. Liuieis -md two oi his
principal adherents, were condemned and
executed on the 26-.uof August ; they were
accused of designs subversive of peace, apd
treasonable Liniers was extremely popu
lar, and the Junta had roo much reason to
apprehend that the discontented would seize
any opportunity which might offer of t ally
ing und^r his command, and opposing un_
der Im direction, the patriotic views of the
new guverimw nt.
One of dn*. first steps of this Government
had heen die organization of a small army,
said to amount to about 4000 men, and which
they immediately marched into the interior
of the Province : the citv of Cordova, .large
and populous) which had at first declared a
gainst *.e Junta, surrendered without oppo
sition-the inhabitants wailing only for the
..cvim,iii£ >»eir par
riotism «nd love of freedom. Liniers and his
adherents had made this their strong hold,
but were obliged to abandon it with precip
itancy-they were pursued by a party of
cavalry, seized and carried to Buenos Ayres.
From Cordova this army pursued its march
westward, and bv the latest accounts, it had
been as yet completely successful in effect
ing the views of the government, causing its
authority to be acknowledged, seizing and
dispersing its opponents.
The provinces of Peru and Chili, it was
said, had declared themselves independent.
On the other hand, the government of
Monteviedo, and the people on the northern
banks of the River Plate, opposed the iunta
ot Buenos Ayres and its measures, declaring
tlum to be in rebellibn, tothe legal authori
ties of Spain. They had gone so far as to
send their whole naval force to blockade Bu
enos Ayres.
i his armament consisting of one frigate
and 6 or 7 smaller vessels, arrived in the
outer roads of Buenos Ayies, on the 3d Sep
tember ; they had not as vet proceeded to
any hostilities, but declared their design of
blockading the port, for which purpose they
had solicited the aid and concurrence of
capt. Elliot, commanding a small British
frigate (the Porcupine,) who declined giv
cn a positive answer, wishing no doubt
to receive instructions from higher authori
ty
The Misletoe was remanded to Buenos
Ay es, with despatches, and sailed on the
.5d October. Admiral de Courcy, with the
Foudroyant, of 84 guns, was to sail yvi'h the
same destination on the 4;h. The design
of the British admiral (gained from the best
authorities.) was to preserve neutrality, to
avert if possible, the calamities of civil war,
bu* especially to support the British commer
cial fl .g, and to insure for it free egres., and
ingress into those ports, whose government
was willing to admit them. This last view
would prevent the blockade of any port of
either party.
! At ttie commencement of the revolution of
Paraguay in May, the new government had
turned its views towards G B for counte
(i nice and support, and had entered into a
correspondence wi h the British ambassa
dor at Hie court of Brazil From the latter
they had received a reply, cautiously eva„
sivein its terms, at the same time contain
ing wishes for their success in all legitimate
proceedings.
1 tie designs of the Brazilian government
were perfectly secret, some movements of
trmps to the Southern frontier had been
made, but whatever be their views, they
must submit to the guidance of the British
cabinet, and on the measures of the British
government depends whether or not, South
America are to obtain a free government,
without an arduous and sanguinary strug
gle.

October 30, 1810.
*' The situation of Florida most certainly
claims the earliest possible attention of our
government, for, unless they are adopted
into our family of governments, there is much
room to fear that one ot the great bellige
rents of Europe will attempt to lay violent
hands upon these provinces, to the incalcu
lable injury of the LT. S Indeed I verily
believe there is a strong party in that coun

I a n we'l persuaded such a measure could
not be effected without a noble and manly
struggle by every real American Within
the province, aided by hundreds from with
out.
“ It would be in vain for our government
to forbid the interference of its citizens ;
their interests and their feelings are too
strongly enlist d »o kept quiet spectators
of such a struggle. - During »iie late troubled
state in thnt quarter, numbers of tcrritoi i_
ans were daily crossing and recrossing the
line in anxious expectation of some niilita.
ry employment. Tuc Conventionalists will
again meet in Convention, in a few days, at
Baton Rouge, and I think one of their first
measures will be to adopt a constitution,
bottomed upon their declaration of inde
pendence; and in all probability they will
set 6n foot an expedition against (he Spa
nish garrisons on Mobille and Pensacola_
Notwithstanding these overt acts of self go
vernment, I am well convinced that the
conventionalists would promptly and joyfully
acquiesce in any claim of dominancy which
the U S. would set up.
** But upon this subject yon will probably
be much belter informed, in a short time,
by a msssenger who will be sent by '.he Con
vention to our government.”
The following is an extract of a letter from
another gentleman at {Washington, M,a

Gun Boat No. 162 commanded by Lieutenant
Lewis f>. Muse, and from No 3, commanded by
Lieutenant William St. Clair, und took refuge
on board a Spanish armed merchant ship lying m

two boats, boarded the ship, brought away and
confined the deserters. The Spanish cnnim.in

hut nevertheless put Lieutenants Muse and
St. Clair under arrest untill the pleasure of Go

officers transcended the bounds of their author*

youthful ardor. Lieutenant Muse was lately a
resident in Raleigh, and is a young gentleman
of merit.
