AMERICAN PAPERS.

NEW YORK, SEPT. 2.s.—The Two Marys,
Captain Kennedy, has come up, in the very short
passage of forty-three days from Buenos Ayres,
which place she left on the sth of August. From
Captain Kennedy the Editors of the Chronicle
learn that the country was in a dreadful state of
confusion ; that shortly after the signing of the
articles of peace, fresh disturbances took place, and
Rosas was again menacing the city with an attack.
A new election took place on the 26th of July, when
Lavalle was re-elected, which had caused great dis-
satisfaction. Captain Kennedy being apprehensive
of a detention, abruptly left the port.
In consequence of this state of things, business
was entirely suspended. Flour was selling at 70
dollars per barrel, paper; Domestics, 9f cents,
specie ; hides, 23 to 24 dollars per pesada.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER DATED BURNOS AYRES,

AUG. 3.

" The moment of the departure of the Two
Marys, for Baltimore, leaves us in a state of anxious
suspence. The elections which were held on the
26th ult. by agreement between the belligerent
parties under the command of Lavalle and Rosas,
it is said, have not been acceded to by the latter,
and from appearances, hostile movements are again
expected. It is generally believed, however, that
the outside, or Federal party, will succeed without
much difficulty, in which event tranquillity will be
maintained.

" In consequence of the revolutionary movements
and the almost universal want of confidence, the
currency of the country has experienced a further
detnreciation,.and doubloons are now at 85 to 87
dollar:- xchange on London, Sid. to 9d. per
dollar, an' , produce nearly in proportion.
44 Rs., A !ic.4.—To-day the Governor has issued
a proclamation, in which he says, that the obstacles
to the re-union or the Legislature are not of a seri-
ous cast, and will soon be arranged ; at the same
time, he declares ti;,kit there will be no further civil

war. This has tranquillized the people's minds, and
on the whole things wear a more favourable aspect.
" AUG. 5, 4 P.3l.—it is confidently said that all
differences are settled."

" PROCLAMATION.

" Citizens !—After you have elected your repre-
sentatives, some trifling obstacles have occurred to
prevent the assembling of the Legislature. We can
never expect that the calm of reason will instantly
prevail after the storm we have just experienced.
" If there is cue among you who fears the re-
newal of civil war, he may rest satisfied that this will
not be the case; for where there a Porteno, who,
at the sight of our fields desolate and bathed in
blood, wishes again to raise his arm against his
countrymen, and give the signal for fresh disasters ?
Government is determined to maintain the preserva-
tion of peace, and promote with all its powers the
re-establishment of permanent order.
" Some means of precaution have been found ne-
cessary to prevent the commission of excesses by
lawless men, but the means taken to secure the lives
and fortunes of the citizens ought not to create alarm
and disturb the tranquillity of the inhabitants. The
Gevernment hopes that the measures which have
been taken to secure a lasting peace to the province
will not be in vain.

" JUAN LAVALLE.

" Buenos Ayres, Aug. 3."
MExtco.-1 he army under the command of
Gen. Santa Anna left Tuspan on the 13th and 14th
of August for Tampico—the greater part were
cavalry. The states of Guanajuato, San Luis, and
Zaculecus, have offered the Mexican Government
20,000 men, which they will maintain during the war.
FROM TA3lPlCo.—Letters from Tampico have
been received by the brig Eliza, at Philadelphia,
from Vera Cruz, which state that Santa Anna had
made an attack upon the Spaniards with 2,000 men.
He was repulsed with the loss of 400 killed and
missing. The reserve of Santa Anna's army was in
the immediate vicinity, and it was expected the next
attack would be decisive, and end in the total de-
struction of the Spaniards.
FROM CURACOA.—We are indebted to Captain
Budd, of the brig Napoleon, for Curagoa Papers to
the 29th of August.
GENERAL SANTANDER.—" We mentioned at a
previous period," says the Paper of the latest date,
" that General Santander, Vice-President of Co-
lombia, was taken out of the gaol of Bocachico in
Carthagena, where he was most rigorously treated,
to be transported into another place of confinement
in La Guayra, and that he came to that effect pri-
soner on board the frigate Cundioatnarca. We now
learn that the Dictator ultimately granted him his
passport, but exclusively for Europe, forbidding him
to come into the West Indies or any part of North
America, or to write against Colombia ; in contra-
vention whereof, he shall forfeit all his property
which remains in hostage; and in case he returns to
Colombia he is to be shot, being declared an out-
law, the inhabitants being also authorized to kill
him, whenever they happen to encounter him in
Colombia. It is said he arrived on the 13th inst. at
Puerto Cabello, where he received his passport, and
on the 15th was brought on hoard a Hamburg brig,
which was to sail for Hamburg."
FRO3I IIivANNAH.--By the brig Mary Jane,
Correja, which arrived late on Monday evening, we
have been put in possession of Harannah papers to
the sth instant. They do not contain any political
intelligence of the slightest interest, and are silent
with regard to a second expedition against Mexico.
In fact, we learn by letters from first-rate sources,
that there was not another expedition fitting out.
We learn from Captain Smith, of the brig Sophia
and Eliza, who arrived last night from Rio Grande,
that the inhabitants of Buenos Ayres were very much
dissatisfied with the administration of General Brown,
who had been appointed President; in consequence
of which, he, with his family, decamped in the night.
It was reported at Rio Grande, that Monte Video
was closely besieged by the Buenos-Ayrian army,
and that there had been considerable skirmishing be-
tween the Buenos-Ayriuns and Indians who infested
the suburbs of the city. Business extremely dulL

We are requested to state that the Octavo
Edition of Mr. MAcrauLANE's " Constantinople in
182," with an Appendix, containing Remarks and Ob-
servations on the Autumn of 1829, is now ready, and

may be had of the Publishers, Messrs. SAuNnitri; and
OTLEY, Conduit-street, at the Libraries, or of the Book-
sellers in Town or Country ; also, the Additions, printed
separately in quarto, for the convenience of former pur-
chasers.

The desertion of wives and families by the
labouring classes is a growing evil, which, if not checked,
will prove a serious burthen to the parishes. Guernsey
and Jersey are the chief resorts of these unprincipled vaga-
bonds, the number of whcin has reached an alarming
height.—Devonport Telegraph.

There is now at this port a vessel called the
Perseverance, recently arrived at Sierra Leone, which is
said to be the fastest sailer in the world. She was cap-
tured by the Black Joke, on the coast of Africa, when
loaded with 600 slaves, condemned and sold at Sierra
Leone, was built at Baltimore, registers 284 tons, and
her deck runs the prodigious length of 120 feet.—Devon-
port Telegraph.

MORE SHAVING.—This admirable plan for
the punishment, reformation, and health of drunkards,
continues, of course, to be persevered in at the Police-
office, and that with the most marked success. On Wed-
nesday night another distinguished votary of Bacchus was
carried to the office in a state of beastly intoxication.
After Doctor NEILSON had laboured with the sot for an
hour or two, endeavouring to get the tube of the pump
into his stomach without effect, from the manner in which
he contrived to hold his tongue ; and after he had nearly
bit through the lignurnvitas wedge for placing betwixt his
teeth, as well as the Doctor's finger—the Police official
barber was sent for, who cut the matter short in a twink-
ling, but not before he had lipped five razors in the execu-
tion of the difficult duty. The tonsor avers it was a head
like Sampson's, on which neither razor nor water had ever
before come. Glasgow Herald.

MELANCIIOLY SUICIDE.--On Saturday, Mr.
Coos:, the landlord or the Canterbury Arms, Marsh-
gate, Lambeth, put a period to his existence by suspend-
ing himself from a beam in the skittle-ground, in the rear
of his own premises. He had left his house about ten
o'clock in the morning, giving, at the time, an intimation
that he was going to the hair-dresser's; but on his not
returning for some hours, apprehensions were entertained
for his safety, and persons were despatched in every place
where it was thought peobable to meet with him. No
tidings could, however, be heard of him ; and it was not
till a late hour in the day that he was discovered hanging
as above described. Upon the unfortunate man being cut
down be was quite cold from the length of time he bad
been suspended. The deceased had only been married two
years, and was highly respected.

Another melancholy instance of self-destruc-
tion by poison was committed on Saturday afternoon, by
a lady named JACQUES, sister to Mr. HENRY ADAMS, the
proprietor of the Ship Tavern, in Leadenhall-street, op-
posite the. India-house. It appears that sometime back the
unfortunate lady, who was about 40 years of age, put chased
a quantity of oil of turpentine and arsenic, for the pur-
pose of destroying bugs ; and, to prevent any mischief
arising from its being in the house, she placed a label upon
the bottle, upon which she wrote " Poison." For several
days past Miss ES had evinced great alteration in her
manner, and always appeared in a state of melancholy;
but no suspicion for a moment arose in the minds of her
family that it was at all indicative of insanity, therefore no
particular notice was taken of her, and she continued as
usual to superinted the business of the tavern. On Sa-
turday afternoon, about three o'clock, the unhappy lady
went up stairs, and meeting with one of the chamber-
maids she said "My dear ANN, you will see me no more ;
I shall not be here to-morrow." From the dejected anti
pallid countenance, the girl became much alarmed, and
replied, " For God's sake, Miss, what is the matter with
you ?" The unhappy woman 'exclaimed, " My dear girl,
I cannot live, adding one sin to another. 1 have swal-
lowed the bug poison, and my end is fast approaching."
The servant alarmed the family immediately, and Mr.
Pocii, of Gracechurch-street, was instantly procured, to
whom the unfortunate woman confessed that she had
drank a tumbler full of the bug poison, and expressed her
conviction that all he could do to save her would be of no
avail. The stomach-pump and every remedy was used to
preserve her existence, but all failed, and she very shortly
after expired. She was a maiden lady, and beloved by all
who knew her,
