BUENOS AYRES.
[From the Buenos Ayres Argos to Sept. 8.1
S•N JUAN, AITO. 17.
By the last mail which arrived in this city from La Carrera de
Cum we learn, that on the 21;th July, Senor Carrel, the Governor,
was arrested by part of the soldiers nt the „garrison. The following
day he was Net at liheray, and another Govetnor chosen in his room.
There is still so much uncertainty respecting the nature and the
results
.of this unexpected event, that we refrain from all r -
flections, till we shall receive more correct and circumstantial d -
tails.

SEPTEMBER 3.
The hat mail from Mendoza has brought us the disagreeable
news, that in spite of the Treaties of Conciliation which had been
made between the factious who occupy San Juan and the inhabit.
ants who had assembled in the`ails de Angsco, the tinnier
still remained in possession of tile city ; their numbers being in-
creased by all the criminals from the prisons, and vagabonds of
every description, whose seditious spirit was inflamed by a fanatic
and licentious priest, named Astorga, under the favourite pretest
of offended religion. Senor Carrel, the Governor, had taken re-
fuge at Mendoza with some of the respectable inhabitants, as soon
as they found that the revolution had assumed such a shape that it
was impossible for them to suppress it without assistance. Pre-
parations were ntaking at Mendoza to send a squadron of troops,
to put an end at once to the evils which afflicted the city of San
Juan.

!he Government has transmitted the official communiestinna
which it has received ou this event to the Congress, accompanied by
the following note :
" The Government had received accounts of the unhappy events
in the province of San Juan, and waited with anxiety fur further
information respecting the real character of them, when, in the
night of the 29th, it received the communications annexed. The
Government knows what the fundamental law procribes, and the
powerful motives which directed it, after repeated and powerful
experience. Notwithstanding thin, the circumstances ohne:twit in
the convulsions at San Juan, make it the duty of the Government
to submit so serious an affair to the consideration of the National
Congress. . _ _

(Sighed) "JUAN GREGORIO DE LAS HERAS.
"MANUEL JOSE GARCIA."

The Congress had an extraordinary sitting on the Ist, to eon.
eider of the affair, which was referred to a Special Committee, con.
stating of Senores Gorriti, Lafridi, Gomez, Friss, and Vedova.
This Committe.• has had some sittings, and we believe, that a
firm and dignified resolution of the Congress will soon be pub-
lished. We trust that both the General Government, and those of
the neighbouring provinces, will exert themselves to suppress, as
soon as possible, a revolution so illegal as that whic'a has mani-
fested itself at San Juan.

CHILI.
The following is an extract of a privateletter from Santiago de
Chile. dated August 10
•
" The agents that have come out from the different English
Mining Companies have put the whole country in motion. They
are sending parties in all directions, to lay hold of and some
of the most valuable have already bean secured. This introduction
of money, and English skill and enterprise, into the country, will
prove most important in its effects. The Governatent gives them
every encouragement.

`•TThe Coniiany fonfied here, who have undertaken to pay the
interet on the English loan, for ten years, nut of the produce of
the monopoly ut certain duties granted them by the Congress. hare
been buying up bills here lately to remit to England for the
dividends—so that John Bull will begin now to see the colour of
our money.
31. Lgana, the father of our 3linister now in England, has
been elected Deputy to Ctingresv for Santiago and two other pro-
vine2s ; but, of course, he can only sit for one. It shows, however,
the respect in which this gentleman is held in this country. The
Congress is to meet early la September.
" 'fhe Eclipse, which was coming here with English miners,
from Cornwall, hat not been able to get round Cape Horn, and has
put back to Buenos Ayres, where the party have landed, and are
now coming across the Cordilleras."

The Barbadoes Paper of the 23d September mates
that " on Tuesday night last, between the hours of nine
and ten, a smart shock of earthquake was sensibly felt in
this island."

We understand that, in consequence of the great delay
incurred by the Mediterranean traders from the variable
winds and calms prevalent in that sea, a Company is in
contemplation, to establish a set of steam towing vessels, by
which a regular communication will be kept up between
Gibraltar, Alexandria, and the various intermediate ports.
Several vessels, peculiarly fitted for this undertaking, are
said to be in a state of forwardness; and the projectors an-
ticipate that, by the ensuing summer, they will have had
sufficient opportunity of trying the experiment, to justify
their laying a general outline of the plan before the public.

from which the following is an extract :
