After an interval of several weeks without any
intelligence direr. from that quarter, letters is ere
yesterday received froth Buenos-Ayres to the 17;11
March The Supreme Director, Pueyrredon, as
was before known, meditates refitment front
o±ee In an address made to the Congress on
the 2.5t1t February, he requested them to appoint
Iris suece.tor, only recommending that he should
be a military character, as being best calculated
to guide the State through the storms that were
likely t'o happen : above all, he exhorted them to
the completion of the Constitution. Saavedra,
Belgrano, and San Martin, are talked of for
the office of Supreme Director, but it is believed
that one of the two first will be elected, and that
Puevrredon will he First Senator. A disagreeable
al fait took place early in March at S. Luis de is
Putt ta, the place of depot for the Spanish itor,list
Irrisor.ers of war. A considerable par y of them
attempted a rising, and liad nearly succeeded in
mnrdering the Gweinor ; severity of them were
executed for this offeoce, among hoot Was (;e-
-neral Ordout:ez, taken prisonir at the bat le of
Maim). General Belgrano had been sent from
Tucuman against the Montoneros that have in-
fested the fonds leading to Chili and Peru, and it
was probable that this banditti would be brought
to et deetsive battle, and cut off from a retreat
across the river. Front Valparaiso it is stated,
that-Lord Cochrane sailed from thstice on the
14th of January, with four of his largest ves-
sels : his flag is hoisted on hoard the O'Higgins
frigate, formerly the Reyna Maria Isabel.
His destination is supposed to he the port of
Callao, where he expects to fall in with the two
Spanish frigates, the Venganza and Esmeralda.
Tbe operatioes of the army in the south of Chili
lia'e been completely successful. General Bal-
cat cc, who conimands it, took possession of the
forts of le is Angeles and Nacimiento, on the In-
dian troutiere without resistance. Col. S,,ticliez,
with about. 480 men, the wreck of the Spanish
expeditioo from Cadiz, Was on his retreat to VAk
divia ; but as the Araucan Indians refused to let
hint pass along the coast, his surrender was very
sooit expected. He had lost all his baggage, and
was besides incumbered trait' a large suite of wo-
men, among tvhom were the nuns of Conception,
with a Spanish confessor at their head. Balcarce
had offered hint honourable terms of capitulation.
The Spaniards are nom completely driven out of
Portugtzete Consul, resident at Bue-
nos Ayres, etas arrested in the latter end of Fe-
binary, because seditious publications, printed
by Carrera, .11vear, and others, at Monte-Video,
had been seen in his possession : this circum-
stance gave rise to reports of.an impending war
Kith the Portuguese, but the Contel had since
been set at liberty, and the affair was likely to
end there.

EARLY DFPRAVITY.—We leti it our ditty to
novice a scene of depravity truly dreadful, which
is daily and nightly exhibited near Catherine-
street, Strand, and in the neighbourhood of the

twelve years of age, and none more than four-
teen, almost in a stale of nudity, walk about, tir!..
COSI :fig r. vet y man they meet ; and it is almost
impossible for any modest female to pass without

troy horrifying ; and to such a pitch is this
nuisance arrived, that several respectable inhabi-
tants have at length determined to adopt some
f11:-.'Ht14 of pulling a stop to scenes so tudj, dis-

SOLENT QUIS PICERE fALSUNI AIIDEAT ?

LONDON,
THURSDAY, JULY 1, 1319.

Dispatches iiftve been rece:ved from Captain

HART, of the Sapphire, stating the Re-capture of
of Porto-Bello, on the morning of the Ist May,

by a coup-de-main.—The Buccaneer, I►l'GttEGoB,
had take❑ such little precaution against an
attack, that he actually knew nothing of

the approach of the Spaniards till they were

mounting the staircase of the boas° in ‘vhich

l►e was sleeping. On hearing the noise,

this gallant hero jumped in his shirt out of a win-
dow twenty feet high, and swam off to one of his
ships in the Road, cut her cable, and rau away,

like a true Patriot, with all the speed that wind
and sail would allow him, leaving his unfortunate
little Army, whom he had seduced from this court-
try, to he butchered by an exasperated enemy. Of

nearly 500 men, about 12 only eseved by swim-

ming, 80 Isere Lillyd, 50 ‘vounded, and the rest

marched off as prisoners of war. Such has
brei Cot ntinvable fate of these 'male fcl"

logs, niatly of r.horn are atatett to have worii

t! ,e Waterloo Medal ! WitHt a commentary

does this furnish to the '' Foreign Enlistment"

Bill, which our l'Atriuts at home were :.t) active

;u opposing. There is an end, however, to any

further mischief on tie pin of :this blustering
Butc4l,eer, whose COW 31.111 y conduct titss justly

brought upon him the contempt of all parties.

It is also st,ited, that news had reached the

West Indies, across the isthmus of Panama, of

CocuL ANR'S Spladron ;laving attacked Lima,

and been defeated with considerable loss. ‘Ve

confess, that whatever our feelings may be with

regard to the Spaniards of South America, we
cannot but heartily rejoice at any reverse which

may befall those foreign Adventurers, who, under

the mask of patriotism, have no other feeling, and

engage in the dispute for no other purpose, than

that of plunder.

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Monday last. The following are extracts :

4.‘ PARI9, JUNE 28.—The King yesterday at-
tended :hit Chapel of the Thuilleries, for the first
time since his indisposition. His Majesty, after-
wards received a great number of Dignitaries,
Officers, Peers, Deputies, etc. The Duke of Or-
leans attended the Court, as did also the Prince
(le Talleyrand.

A new l'oem has been published, written by
M. Lucien Buonaparte. It is entitled The Cer-
; the subject is the inhabitants of Corsica
(formerly culled Cernos), succeeding in shaking
off the yoke of the Saracens, by whom they bud
been invaded,

" Private letters from Stuttgard state that
there is no doubt that the mission of the Count
de Benzel Szernau to Paris, on the part of the
King of Wurte.nberg, has reference to a reconci-
liation between the King and Prince Paul. It is
eage►ly hoped in Wurtewherg, that the negocia-
don may meet with the fullest success.
" Those persons who have arc ived from Cadiz
agree in stating that it is utturly impossible the
Russian ships, purchased by the Spanish Govern-
ment, can keep the sea, and therefore they cannot
be employed in the Expedition to South America.
" An infant, aged six months, its consequence
of being gnawed by rats, which got into its
cradle, died recently at Stenay, after three weeks
of great suffering.
" In the night of the Bth inst. a dreadful storm
ravaged the Commune of Biot, Canton of Vence
(\Tar). A water-spout burst, and the vines and
shrubs, together with the largest trees, were torn
up by the roots and carried to a considerable dis-
tance. Vegetation was entirely destroyed for the
space of half a league in length, and 400 feet in
breadth.

" FRANKFORT, JONI: 22.—Madame Joseph
Buonaparte still resides here, two of her daughters
have recently received presents of great value in
pearls and diamonds trom the King of Sweden.

" DRESDEN, JUNE 15.—The new Queen of
Spain will set out front hence in the month of
August.
VIENNA, JUNE 16.—The Emperor is expect.
ed at Milan the 6th July.
" The Archduke John is at present inspecting
the northern frontiers of Hungary (on the side of
Russia) for the purpose of fixing upon the sites
of the fortresses which are to be erected along
the Carpathian mountains."

EXTRACT OP A LETTER FROM WASHINGTON,
DATED MAY 28.
_

My letters from North Carolina inform me,
that the East India Merchants and Brokers are
ruining the Country, nor can the extent of the
mischief be seen. Two Brokers from New York
have, in a few weeks, carried from that Stare a
hundred thousand dollars in specie, and further
runs are apprehended. This is supposed to be
connected to sink the value of our State Bank-
notes abroad. It must be evident that, if this
course be pursued, it will break every Bank in the
United States, and it is impossible to replenish
our vaults so last as these enemies of the Com-
munity can in this way draw out the specie; if
these runs are continued, the Banks in defence
will be driven into a refusal to pay specie. Con-
gress, in my opinion, could have prevented all this
distress by prohibiting the exportation of specie,
arid nothing else will produce the desired effect.

As another seditious Meeting has been an-
nounced to take place on the fifth of this month
at Blackburn, we have procured and subjoin a
copy of the Notice issued for the occasion. As
matters now begin to wear a threatening aspect,
our Rulers will doubtless be fully prepared to
protect the Government, and maintain the secu-
rity of the State :
