SOUTH AMERICA.

We arc in possession of reliable advices from New
Grenada up to the 10th August. The news is most
satisfactory to the friends of order and progress.
The provinces of the South, where some revolu-
tionary movement was attempted, now enjoy the
most complete tranquillity, thanks to the judicious
conduct of Generals Obando and Iferrara, who, by
the orders of the government, have marched through
the provinces of Pasto, Popavan, Cauca, and Buena-
ventura. In the province of Bogota some revolu-
tionary tumults were attempted, but they were
im-
mediately suppressed. General Borrero, who had
declared himself against the actual government of
the province of Antioquia, found no followers
in the people, not even among those of the
opposition party. Among those should be men-
' boned Colonel Bro.nleo Endo, who, collect-
' ine 000 men, prepared to march against the
rebellious General. The rest of the republic was
I perfectly tranquil the people seconding the
government in the great work of reform which it
I was labouring to conduct to a successful termina-
tion. It must be noticed the inexactness of the
assertion that the attempt at revolution in New
Grenada was caused by the taxes levied by the
: government. Congress authorised the executive to
raise a forced loan in case the revolution should
I assume a serious aspect. The executive, however,
Idid not find it necessary to exact this extra tax.
' The movement was the result of a plot of the reac-
tionary party, (friends of the Jesuits who were ex-
pelled from New Grenada some time back) the
deadly enemies of the reforms which the present
liberal government are judiciously introducing, and
in which it is to be hoped that they will encounter
no further obstacles.

By advices from Costa Rica of the date of July 19
we arc informed that General Flores, the absconding
President of Ecuador, has sailed for Peru to place
himself at the head of the insurrection in Ecuador,
which is leagued with that in New Grenada. Flores

BRITISH AMERICA.

The crops in Lower Canada look exceedingly well,
especially the wheat crop. This grain has been thus
fir free from the attacks of the fly, smut, and so
forth, and, from its advanced state, the farmers do
not anticipate any danger. Oats also promise abun-
dantly. he hay has been well secured, and proves
to be far above the average quality. Potatoes look
well, and those that have been dug out appear finer
and larger than is usually the case at this time of
theyear. In detached places, however, there arc
evident signs of the rot. The discovery of gold in
the valley of the River Chandice, in Lower Canada,
hm attracted the attention of numerous adven-
turers. No leas than five hundred American gold-
hunters, together with several men from New Bruns-
wick, have been " prospecting" along that river and
its tributaries, during the summer. They have, how-
ever,
met with but little success. Still, there are
five companies in the field who met with sufficient
encouragement to prosecute their labours. The
mineral region extends over a surface of 3,000
square miles, the gold being found in the beds of the
stream, and the adjoining hills. Pieces of gold with
quartz attached have been found, but no auriferous
vein of quartz. Mr. Mackenzie the representative
from Ileldimand, in the Canadian parliament, is
making the tour of his county.
The Governor-General and his family have been
staying for some time at Niagara Falls.

The number of emigrant; that had arrived at
Quebec, up to the 23d of August, was 35,618, being
an increase of 4,163 over the number that had
arrived at the same date hat year.
