ACADEMY.

" Finding a genetal approbation of the design of °lake
proposals for establishing a ROYAL ACAI>LNY herr is fps,
which, notwithstanding has met with some difFeti:t:e>, ba
reason of the great number of scholars we proposed to be
taught as also because some persons ac,upled the smolt,
of performance, and others the word Lottery, or the metboa
of being admitted by a fortuitous way of drawing
have, therefore, to obviate all possible objections, thought
Et to alter our former, and advance these new prnpasa47_
" First, That most of the best masters in town 'hail
still be retained by us, to teach the following Arts sal
Sciences:—

, I anguages—French. Latin, and Greek.
Writing and Accompts.
Muthematicks, in all their parts.
Musick—Organ, Harpsichord, Lute, Guittar, the Or'.?..:e
Viol, Violin, and Flute.
Singing.
Dancing.
Fencing, Wrestling., Vaulting.
" The Sc tio LARS in these Arts and Sciences are to be o,
Iwo sorts.

" First, EXTERN!, (out-door scholars) who shall come
to our Academies, and be taught three times a-week, and
three hours at a time, in any one of the abovesaid Arts or
Seiencei ; having power to change as often as they please,
and learn any other, paving .ss. for every such exchange;
the rates payable by Externs are only 61. per annum,
whereof one-half is to be advanced at their admittance, the
other half at the half-year's end. The number to be thus
admitted into both our Academies is, at present, deviped
to be only 500.
. _ _

" &condly, Acansittexs, who shall dyet, have chats.
bets and necessary attendance in the Academies, under the
care and government of the Governour and Masters ,iving in
the house. These shall also learn one science at a time,
and be taught the whole week for 301. per annum, at two
payments as above; or 30/. per annum for 'them and their
servant, paying also 55.. for every time they exchange one sei.
encefir another. If either Academicks or Externs woull
be taught more than one science at a time they shall learn
as many as they please at 30s. per quarter each. The num-
' ber of these is designed to be only 100: in all GOO.
" And if any of our Scholars should be in the least dis.
satisfyed, or have any extraordinary business to divert 'en
from their studies, they shall be at liberty to sell, assign
and transfer, their right to any other person, who thereby
shall be capable of the same priviledg,es • or (if they please)
shall, at any quarter's end, deduct the remaining part of
their monies out of the stock.
" We require not a present advance of any monies, but
only a subscription of the same, and place of abode, of
every one that designs to learn; and, so soon as the sad-
scrintion hooks are JO, publick notice shall be given, for
every intended Schollar, their Parents, or Guardians, to
meet at one of our Academies, and choose among them-
selves five persons as Trustees, and Representatives of all
the rest, into whose hands the subscription money shall be
paid ; they giving us security, that it shall be immediately
put forth into the Royal Bank, or some where else. where
rt may lye ready for the necessary uses and ends designed
and mentioned in our Proposals.
" And for fear the said Subscription-money should fall
short (by misconception, or some unforeseen accident), the
Undertakers will also, at the same. time, give the said
Trustees the farther security of 3,0001. for a just and Ll
performance of the undertaking.
" The office of these Trustees will be to assist the Under-
takers in a Committee (to be called every month), where
they shall have equal power with the Undertakers them.
selves, to hear all complaints, regulate all disorders, and
make such good Laws and Constitutions as may be for the
interest and reputation both of the Schollars and the De-
sign. The care and attendance of these Trustees will be
considered out of the publick stock.

" Every rational pen' on may easily compote Mat Ws nd
any present considerable interest that now engages us is
this qjfilir, the rates of teaching being here reduced to tel:
than one-ha(f what is commonly paid to the meanest matters,
reckoning one science with another; but because his Ma-
jesty has been graciously pleased to promise, that, so soon
I as it shall please God to bless us with a peace, he will very
considerably encourage the design ; and, in the mean
time, has given vs 1,0001. towards the building of a very
large and noble Academy, in some convenient place near
the town; we therefore intend to begin to build, as soon
as these Subscriptions are completed ; and will only, at
present, take two Academies (one near the ROYAL Es-
CHANGE ; the other ill or near COVE N T-OAIIDINI, for the
present ease and convenience of the town; w deli two
Academics shall be converted into that one, which we
design to build.

" In this great ACADEMY we are going to: build, and
upon which will be settled a handsome And to maintain it
for ever, will be taught Hiding, and ALL OTHER ♦ITB
AND SCIENCES NOW KNOWN IN EUROPE, and by the best
Masters which can possibly be procured, allowing 'cm very
adcantagious salaries, that every art may meet with its du
encouragement and improvement.
" But of this New Foundation we shall have occasion to
speak more at large in a very little time ; for the numb( r
of our Subscribers being so few, and the Terms of T.ach-
ing so very advantagious, we doubt not but the Suss..:,
lions will MR he full.

our Office on the West end of the Royal. EXCHANGE.
I just under the Oughtropher's office ; the other, at the
I Musick-room in Charles-street, in Covent-trarden, where
attendance will be given every Munday, Wednesday, and

MESSAGE OF THE GOVERN ENT TO THE FIFTH
LEGISLATURE OF THE PROVINCE.
. . . _

Gentrenten2.-CTreat events have filled the period of your recess.
On meeting together, in conformity to our law and custom, you
find the reality of all that you expected with anxiety the Jut year.
The Liberating Areiy of Pent has dissolved all the materials of
the Spanish power which bad been collected in the heart of the An.
dos and has dissipated its very illusions. The independence of
toe American continent is now self.evident. The set by which
(Treat Britain has lately acknowledged it. is another memorable
watt. because the triumph of the principles which establish the le-
giutoscy or our rights against the pompous alliance of the old Er.
rowan Aristocracy is important. loony, tlw Provinces of River la
Plata have appeared united in a National Body. The Congress
General, well acquainted with the situation of each one of them,
bas opened a worthy march, sanctioning the fundamental law,
which shall be hereafter presented to you. In it you will see, Gen.
Icemen, shine the same spirit with which you dictated the his of
the 13th November. 1E24. Experience is showing that It is the
most proper to guarantee an union which ought nut to be antici-
pawl. but confinnal by the laws.
•• The Government has provided, from the treasury of the pro.
viace, for expenses of the national defence and organization, in
the Tema which shall be presented to you. It hopes that this
erd merit your approbation, because it is conformable to your
decided sentiments: but it would have wished to avoid the necessity
of accepting the provisional trust of the National Executive Power,
so as not to expose itself to the danger of nourishing prejudices
which time and progressive civilization only tan cure. The
National Congress will doubtless hasten to remove this pretext
of c3ealintsa, and this province will then limit itself only to
gise salutary examples of generous devotion to the national
came, mid of constant attention to the improvement of its insti.
unions. These already bring men and capital from all parts. The
growing prosperity of our coninterce, the activity of ow industry,
and the general comfort of the labouring part of the population will
miry day cause the penciples of the Government which rule as to
be more loved t 't being to be hoped that they will introduce even
in the classes the least favoured of the people, that good sense, or,
if you pleme. instinct of liberty sad order, which disconcerts and
disappoints the machinations of the ambitions. The ignorance of
the people has always been the great fund of theft resources. In
order to combat lt, you decreed the establishment of a considerable
bomber of primary schools in the city and country. This has been
completed ; but the state and progress of those that were intrusttd
to the care of the Society of Beiteticence has crowned ail hopes, and
Ira: serve as a model and atimilus.

" The Colleges have this year received some improvements.
Pains have been taken carefully to repress the spirit of itienbor-
clisation. which examples and neglect, in a long puled of revolu-
tion and disorder, always
_propagate. Youth. unaccustomed to
sentiments of respect, would form men incapable of being free,
who mid neither govern nor be governed except by terror and
violence. The University was wanting a constitupon, which, by
giving it an existence worthy of its object, should offer a guarantee
that the sacrifices made for the establishment and preservation of
classical instruction were fruitful. This work is about being cow.
pleted."

During the Session of the 9th instant the Executive addressed
Lys following Note to Congress as a matter of great urgency :
" Buenos Ayres, 9th May. 1025.
" A war hat commenced in the eastern part of the provinces cf
Rio de la Plats; this event, together with the nature of the con-
flict, makes tt r.ecessary that the Executive should be prepared for
the consequences it may produce, and ebi;ll threaten as well the
tranquillity of the State as the security of its frontiers. For this
reason we think it of the greatest importance to make an addition
to the military force of Uruguay of a sufficient number of troops.
To accomplish this object the present situation of the country de.
mends, In this instance, the co-Nrerotion of Con/revs, in order that
the several provinces of the Union may be induced to send the
uoops that can be spared from the service of the fhterior, placing
then: at the disposition of the Executive.
" Th. Executive expects that the resolutions of Congress, on a
matter of such importance to the nation, will have the most decided
effect; with this view, the present communication Is made, sad in
the hope that it will be looked upon as very pressing.
" The Executive salutes the representatives of the nation with
respect.
" JUAN CREGOItIO DE LAS REARS.
" 31 ANUEL JOSE GARCIA."

Hiving seen the foregoing Note, the Congress in its Smith° of
the I Id., sanctioned the following project of a law presented by the
Military Committee.
Art. I. The Clovernment of the Province of Buena% hires is
authorised, as being provisionally charged with the executive
power, to see to the detente and security •of the state, and it is re-
coma ended to it particularly to roams, for the present, the
military tome of Uruguay, to be prepared 'for the events that may
be produced be the war, which has commenced in the eastern parts
of Rio tie la Plata.

2. fo acormplish this object. and in consideration of its urgency
and insportauce to the maim, and until the complete organization
of a esnding army, the Executm, in the mune of Coogreas, will
stir up the seal anu patriotism of the Governments of the several
provinces, that they may be urged to place at its disposition, with.
an any delay, t ll the troops that are hot wanted for die interior
service of the said provinces.
3. With the UM view the Governments of the provinces will
be invited to as.ist the Executive with a part of their militia to
strengthen the line of troops:
4. It is also recommended to the Governments of the said pro-
voices to send as quick as possible, all die recruits that can be pro-
eared, that they may be immediately instructed and sent to the
trontieni.

5. The ?straits that may be had will be considered as making
Part of the 'towing amiy, agreeably to a law posited fur ita for-
tnation.
r. 'rhe Chief or Chiefs under whose charge the Executive will
Vete this military force shall Dot interfere with the internal go-
itcroment of the prow:nee of Entre Rios or any other where the
army msy be lua,kmed : and absold the said Chief or Chiefs wish
thi LtSiSLUIC as to be obtained only through the government of
the ph,vioee.

7•rr'llll;;Preseni. and until Congress can attend to the MFR_
iires to be taken for the maintenance of the troops, the Executive
strhodied to request the Legislature of the province of Buenos
Ayres to advance the fund, that are indispensably neesesary to
ry
cu into edict time pressing tnesserell.

BRAZIL AND BUENOS AYRES. .
(From the New York Doug Advertiser of July 30.)
BANDA ORIENTAL.
The insurrection which hue /..roken out in this province of his
Moister of Brun, has assumed an expect not very favourable
to the cause of royalty. '
he success which the Patriots
Mire greedy met with has exceeded their meet sanguine expecte-
hors, and they entertain hopes of effecting nothing less than the
complete emancipation of the whole of Brazil. From an parts of
&Ma Oriental, the sentiment is uniform and decided ; the war is
enkindled, and the insurgents are gaining ground from day to day.
The sentiments of the people.of the ether Republics of South
Amer= are so decidedly in their favour, that this will operate as
Powerful stimulant ; and the success which has thus far ttecom-
Psn.rd the arms of the Patriots In Colombia and Buenos Ayres, in
smuti--and Mexico, in North Americ.s, will undoubtedly hare a
Powerful efeet in convincing the people that royal arms are not
.nr ncible.

Nor are the durpos. Mons manifested by the government of Buenos
Aries and Colouibin less favourable to the accomplishment of the
ends of the Patriots. It 11 supposed that Bolivar was the secret in.
selvor, and is now the secret suppOrter of the insurgents. Into,
lie will without doubt turn his own attention that way after Com-
pleting his work in Peru. The government of Buenos Ayres, im-
mediately steer the first acts of the insurrectionists. in compliance
%nth a message tom the Executive, took the subject into consi-
deration, and adopted such measures as circumstance demanded
axi prudence required." TM, message was sent to the Legislature
n theilth of May. In it the Executive say that the character of the
ay was such mi threatened the peseta the frontiers, and that It was
Mewed important torsinfwee thalines on the Uruguay. On the 11th
Voss passed a law authorising the Esecutive to stregthen the
',Teo( the in precaution of the cream which the war en.
kindled in Baada Oriental of La Plata may produce. With this
übleet, they recommend the immediate organisation of the national
army. It is also recommended to the Executive to stimulate the
teal and patriotism of the different ()overawe of the Provinces,
t they may the more readily place at the diposat of the General
for t
fievernment " all the force which is not absolutely necessary
he interior security of the said provinces." " And," it
is idled " for the present, and while Congress prevides the ne-
vPary means for the watotetuocc of 1116 force, the Executive will

Iregnost in the name of the C.l4,7ttir treat the Legit:a:we of the
province of Buenos Ayres, that the latter furnish in anticipation
the necesaary means for erecting thin measure, not less urgent than
national." The import of such. measures,and meaning of such,
language, cannot well be misunderstood. It ought to excite no,
aurprtse, if our neit accounts should' relate soiuething more than
preparations fur the defence of the Buenos A yrean frontiers.
More than 2.600 men are already found, vsyk the Argentino. of
the t:Sith of May, with their arms in then heads; whilst the Bra-
titian. scarcely posses the foil that they stand On. The action of
the 15th May was fought with courage by both parties, and has
been, without doubt, an advantageous essay to the Oriental.
Should the insurrection not extend to Brazil itself. Banda Orlin.,
tall would, if successful, undouhtedly join the Confederation of the;
United Provinces of the La Flats. In case of such an event. the
;States would unquestionably prote..-tead defend their sister province,
land any attempt on the part of the Emperor to recover possession.
would be resisted as an attack bn the Republic. The re.ult of
such a war may be learned by the history of the Spanish Colonial
Reeo:etioos.
