About 2000 troops, in detachments of the 6th,
xith, .21st, 48th, and 62d Regiments, and the Staff

The folloWini communication from a -Gentleman
has recently returned from Buenos Ayres, tends
elucidate the motives of General Limns, in the
•. • adopted since the departure of the British
from the Rio tie la Plata
I I belie*, whet the hirittsh. army and trey evacuated Buenos
>aocommercial stipulations were emerald into. The fact
about a week before the final evacuation took place,
to all reputation, the Spaniards bought up every thing
was British. It was notorious, that Limier* and his friend s
the principal buyers, and he was so far identified as the
perckwer, that he paid foe very large parcels indeed, with
now frees stores known to be under his controul. Those
were there, know these facts well. The exclusion of nut-
ter two years is at once accounted for : he, and those about
• • went Mums wealth in the mem time by the sale of their
• of the rods, ad especially, British goods purchased at that
'axe. It is also obvious, that, though he excludes even vessels li-
by the King, :c can admit those of his own election as
is ewes. Thou arch sr:.-: of the South American
: • enderstand all this well.
" The invasion of the Continent by the British gave a new turn
the minds of the people, from one end of it to another. If the

the Portuguese C nvernment in the Brazils will hasten these
