(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.)

" MADRID, JULY 20.—Our Government has just
received despatches from the Captain-General of the
island of Cuba, as well as from the Intendant of the
Havannah.

" The Intendant proposes various resources or
taxes, in order that there may be no want of funds
to meet the extraordinary expences of the intended
'expedition. But those two officers agree in ex-
pressing their feats. of the bad success of the expedi-
tion, not only on account of the little experience of
the new General to whom the command is intrusted,
but also on account of the direction. which the. Ge-
neral intends to give it. A project of our Govern-
ment is spoken of to proclaim the Infant Don Francis
de Paul, Emperor of Mexico.
" Several Spaniards expelled from Mexico, who
are at present in Europe, and others who quitted
that country voluntarily some years ago, advised
here a war of extermination, but others who have
more sense are of a totally different opinion.
" BELGRADE, JULY 13.—The Paella of Bel-
grade has received news from Constantinople of the
30th of June. The Sultan has given orders for the
corps of reserve encamped near Adrianople to march
immediately to Shumla. Preparations are also
making, from which it is inferred that the Sultan
himself will soon take the 'field. Five thousand
Bosniaks are now on their march to the Danube.
" CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, JULY 31.
" About GO Members were present.

" The Keeper of the Seals, the Ministers of
War, the Marine, the Interior, and Commerce,
were successively introduced. The Minister of the
Interior delivered a paper to the principal usher,
who gave, it to M. Royer Collard.
_ _

" The PuEsIDENT.----The Minister of the Interior
has communicated to me the ordiiance of the King,
which I am going to read'.

" CHARLES, &C.—The Session of the Cham-
ber of Peers and Chamber of Deputies for 1529 is
and remains dosed. The present proclamation
shall be carried to the Chamber of Deputies by our
Secretary of State for the Department of the Inte-
rior, and by our Ministers of Justice and the Marine.
" Given at St. Cloud, July 30, 1829, in the
fifth year of our reign.
(Signed) " CHARLES.

(Signed

" ' DE MARTIGNAC."

" The PRESIDENT.—The Session of 1829 being
terminated, the Chamber will immediatelyiseparate.
" The Deputies break up with unanimous cries
of Vive le Roi !
" The Ordinance was communicated to the
Chamber of Peers by the Ministers of Ecclesiastical
Affairs, Foreign Affairs, and Finance.
(From the Constitutiound of Saturday.)
" SPANISH LOANS.

" The Spanish Government, in order to support
its sinking credit, has found no better means than to
insert in the Madrid Gazette, an article with the fol-
lowing title :--4 Official Article,—A view drawn up
according to an order of his Majesty, by the Direc-
tor of the Royal Caisse d' Antortissement, of the
loans contracted and discharged in foreign countries
since the restoration of the legitimate Government
in 1823.' It is dated Madrid, the 4th of July, and
signed Victoriano de Encimay Piedra*.

(From the 2lfessager des Chambres of Sunday.)

" The ilioniteur of the Ist contains a Royal Or-
dinance, authorizing the publication in France of the
Apostolic letter of the Pope Pius VIII. dated
Rome, June 18, 1829, granting an indulgence ad
ormani jubilei, on his accession to the Pontificate.
This letter is received without approbation of the
clauses or expressions contrary to the Charter, to
the laws of the kingdom, or to the franchises, liber-
ties, and maxims of the Gallican church.
" A letter from Constantiople of 30th June, in
the Augsburgh Gazette, says—
" I embrace an opportunity which offers to in-
form you that the Reis Effendi, after having exa-
mined the preliminary proposals for peace, sent to
Shumla to the Grand Vizier, has just despatched the
Dragoman of the Porte with his answer to the
Russian head-quarters.
" Hence fresh hopes are entertained in this ca-
pital that peace may be restored more speedily than
we had ventured to hope.'
. .

" The Gazette des Tribunaux contains the sen-
tence of the Tribunal of Commerce at Paris, which
declares Count de Montholon in a state of bank-
ruptcy. We find in the discussions which preceded
the sentence, that the Count has just taken flight.
The President Berte was much affected in deliver-
ing his sentence."

GERMAN PAPERS.
ST. PETERSBURG'', JULY 14.—Prince Madatow
has already passed the Balkan, and issued a Procla-
mation, in which he promises that private proverty
shall be respected. The inhabitants bring ample
supplies of provisions and live oxen to our troops,
for which they receive payment in ready money.—
Count Diebitsch is waiting for the arrival of a caravan
with camels to pass the Balkan with the main army.
Gen. Krasiowsky is to invest Shumla.

WARSAW, JULY 20.—We have received news
that Count Diebitsch has completely invested
Slumla, and will soon make an attempt to carry it
by storm.

BUCHAREST, JULY 6.—We learn on good autho-
rity, that the siege of Rudschuk and Giurdzevo will
immediately commence, part of the army before Si-

listria having already marched thither. An army of
observation of 30,000 men is posted near Shumla,
and Count Diebitsch is preparing to advance along
the foot of the Balkan, by the seacoast, towards
Adrianople. The reinforcements now on the march
are ordered to proceed as rapidly as possible to Ba-

- - -
zardjik.
CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 30.—The great victory
of the Russians near Shumla is generally known.
The Porte is making the most vigorous preparations
for resistance, but it is said that the necessity of
yielding is felt. This at least is inferred, from the
circumstance that the Dragoman of the' Porte has
received orders to set out to-day or to-morrow for
the Turkish main army. This officer, it is well
known, always acts a principal part in negociations.
An extraordinary courier has been despatched to-
day to Vienna.
BERLIN, JULY 25.—Their Royal Highnesses the
Duchess and Prince George of Cumberland left this
city yesterday for London.
HAMBURGH, JULY 28.—The St. Petersburgh
Papers of the 10th (22d) instant, received this
morning, contain particulars of the journey of the
Emperor from Tulczin to Bobruisk. His Majesty
arrived at the latter place on the 12th instant, and
is probably by this time in St. Petersburgh. At
Bobruisk his Majesty inspected the camp of Turkish
prisoners. There were in all about 2,000; and to
21 officers, and 300 privates,
,his Majesty wai
pleased to grant their liberty, in consideration Gf
their advanced age.
In the same papers we find further details of the
capture of Silistria. On the 18th (30th) of June,
at half-past two a.m., a mine was sprung, the effect
of which was to open a practicable breach in the
very heart of the fortress ; and two other mines
were ready to be sprung. Hereupon the garrison
seems to have been struck with utter dismay, and at
ten o'clock the same morning it was intimated to
General Krassowsky, that the commandant of the
fortress was desirous to capitulate. A capitulation
was agreed upon the same evening, and on the fol-
lowing morning the Russian troops entered the for-
trtns through the breach. The Russians have taken
D,OOO prisoners, including upwards of 1,000
wounded, and 238 pieces of artillery, independently
of 31 on board the flotilla, and 38 standards.

The following are the principal features of the
capitulation :
" 1. The garrison to be prisoners of war, and to
deliver up the whole of their arms, baggage, artil-
lery, and flotilla; but to retain their private property.
" 2. All Mahometan inhabitants are allowed to
leave the place, and to repair with their families
whither they please, but without taking their arms
with them.

" 3. Those who choose to repair to Russia or
Silistria to receive assistance."

BERLIN, JUNE 26.--A private letter in the
Northern Bee says, " A great part of our victorious
corps has assembled before Kars, and Count Paske-
witsch has been here these three days. Twenty
wersts before us on the road to Erzeroum is the van-
guard tinder General Pankratjeu. The Turks have
again attempted, before the arrival of our main
force, to approach Akhalzyk and Ardajan : they
failed in both attempts, being defeated in the first
by General l3urzow, and ;n the second so alarmed at
the approach of General Pankratjeu, that on seeing
our advanced posts they tied towards Erzeroum.—
However, we hear that the Seraskier himself has
advanced from Erzeroum to meet us with 30,000
men and 52 cannon ; that he has already passed the
mountains of Saganlll, and has besides 60,000 men
behind him. Our troops at this point are at present
not more than 10,000 men, but after the arrival of
the ld•th division there will be 20,000 infantry alone.
Operations have not begun, but it seems that we
shall go forward to-morrow. Our army is com-
pleted by fine recruits, well equipped and well fed,
in high spirits, and in a fine state of discipline. It is
true we have bodies of excellent Asiatic cavalry
against us, but our well-organized infantry and ar-
tillery, our able and prudent Commander, the spirit
that animates the whole army from the highest to
the lowest, entitle us to expect certain success in the
approaching campaign."—Prussian State Gazette,
July 27.
FRONTIERS OF WALLACHIA, JULY B.—The Pre-
sident has signified to the Boyards, that the Rus-
sian Court was endeavouring to restore peace on the
basis of the treaty of Ackerman, and that in the
mean time they should proceed to choose a Hospodar.
Their opinions are divided between Jordaki, Phili-
perku, Diniku, Golesku, and Gregory Gigka, and
the usual election intrigues have commenced, though
the opinion of the Sultan on all the proposed
changes is not known. One party requires not
merely the execution of the treaty of Akerman, but
entire separation from Turkey, so that Ito Nlussul-
man should he allowed to enter the Principalities or
to have any kind of intercourse or commerce with
them. The new Hospodar is to have 1,000,000
of piasters annually; the remainder of the public re-
venue to be employed in the internal administration.
The produce of the salt-works and customs to be
employed in maintaining an army of 12,000 men.
When the clergy lately paid its quota of 250,000
piasters for the establishment of new hospitals, they
were thanked by Golesku, in the name of the Pre-
sident, and told that this was the last sacrifice that
would be required by the church. The Turkish
Governor of Silistria, after the surrender of the
place, gave a splendid ball in his palace to General
Krassowsky and his officers, which civility was re-
turned by a grand disner.

The Memoirs of the Is=ing of SWEDEN, an-
nounced fer publiCation by Mr. MEREDITH, will comprise,
we understand, an Account of the political character of
Sweden at a most remarkable crisis, and of the policy of
the celebrated individual who was appointed to preside over
her destinies. The Correwondenee of the CROWN PRINCE
with the Emperor IVAeor.EoN forms a principal feature im
the volume, which also c.ntains a great number of curious
and important documents, illustrative of the character of
BERNADOTTE and of the internal state of the kingdom, at
various interesting periods.

The Marquis of HERTFORD has hermetically
sealed up the doors and windows of his pleasant cottage at
the foot of Richmond Bridge, where the late Duke of
QZENSBERRY enjoyed "midnight song and revelry, tipsy
dance and jollity," for half a century. The good trades-
people of Richmond sigh for the return of the Marquis.

THE JESUITS.—The high dignity of Gene-
ral of the Society of Jasus has just been conferred upon
JOHN ROOTHAN, a native of Amsterdam. The General,
who is about 44 years of age, entered the Society at an
early period in Russia. He is represented as peculiarly
qualified by h's virtues, talents, and acquirements, to fill
the important station to which he has been called. As a
linguist, he ranks among the first in Europe.—Dublin
Morning Register.

There is on the Southampton-road a well-
known coachman, who possesses the classical name of
XERXES, and who has a son very closely resembling the
sire; to this latter the lads of Sandhurst have given the
appellation of a'ter-Xerxes.

COURT OF COMPENSATION.—The assess-
ment of the value of the interest of Mr. W3r. Poch-NELL,
in the shellfish-shops, of No. 134, St. Martin's-lane and
No. 473, Strand, which was left unfinished when we went
to press, on Saturday, was ultimately decided by a verdict
in favour of the claimant, of 6,0501.
A correspondent informs us that the Duke of
PORTLAND is about to build a small-class frigate, which
he intends to present to the Admiralty ; and that a Naval
Officer, who recently commanded one of the experimental
squadron, is to superintend the construction of the frigate.
The Officer in question has already built a sloop of war.--
Morning Paper,

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 3, 1829.

Mr. O'CONNELL, as will be SCell by our
Paper of to-day, has been again triumphantly
returned Member for Clare. No opposition was
offered to his election, probably from a convic-
tion of its perfect uselessness ; and he walked over
the course coolly and sedately, like the Irish-
man's race-horse, when he had driven all before
him to the goal.

Despatches were received at the Foreign
Office this morning from Lord COWLEY, our
Ambassador at Vienna ; from Lord STUART DE
ROTUSAY at Paris, and from the Netherlands.

Despatches were received at the Colonial
Office this morning from Sir JAMES LYON,
Governor of Barbadoes, dated the 19th of June,
and also from the whole of the Leeward Islands.
Their contents are unimportant, relating entirely
to affairs of a local nature connected with these
Colonies

The French Papers state that the Pacha of
BELGRADE has received news from Constan-
tinople of the 30th of June. The SULTAN
has given orders for the corps of reserve encamped
near Adrianople to march immediately to Shumla.
Preparations are also making, from which it is
inferred that the SULTAN himself will soon take
the field. Five thousand Bosniaks are now on
their march .to the Danube. The same Journals
say (on the authority of a letter from Constan-
tinople) that " the REIS EFFENDI, after having
examined the preliminary proposals for peace,
sent to Shumla to the GRAND VIZIER, has
just despatched the Dragoman of the PORTE
with his answer to the Russian head-quarters."

The Allge;neine Zeitung, of July 27th, gives
in detail the particulars of the commercial treaty
concluded between the Kings of BAVARIA and
WIRTEMBHRG on the one side, and the Grand
Duke of HESSE and the RHINE on the other.
These particulars, which are numerous, but of a
nature not likely to excite much general interest,
seem to meet the wishes of all parties concerned.

By the Dutch Mail which arrived this morn-

ing, we have received the St. Petersburgh Jour-
nal to the 19th, and the Allgoneine Zeitung
to the 29th ult. The following are extracts :

ST. PETEASBURGII, JULY 15.—His Majesty has been
pleased to confer the order of St. Alexander Newsky on
Lieutenant-Generals Rudiger and Prince Madatoff ; that of
St. Vladimir on Major-General Boutourlin ; and that of
St. Anne on Major-Generals Outroutcheff and Arnoldi.
Up to the 14th there had arrived at Cronstadt 689
ships, sailed 280. At Riga, up to 9th July, arrived 770,
sailed 585.

ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY 17.-- Te Deum was cele-
brated this morning for the surrender of Silistria, and the
victory gained by Generals Burzow and Muraview ever the
Kiaja of the Seraskier of Erzeroum.
A Supplement to the St. Petersburgh Journal of the
16th contains the bulletins of the taking of Silistria, and
the late victory in Asia.
TILE HAGUE, JULY 30. According to letters from
St. Eustatius, a vessel had arrived there which was found
to be a prize to a pirate. The Magistrates had in conse-
quence detained and arrested the crew, who were sent on
board one of his Majesty's corvettes to Surinam. The
ship seems to belong to Boston, and to have been taken by
the pirates off the Cape of Good Hope. They had taken
and carried into effect the cruel resolution to embark the
whole crew in a boat and sink it.

His Majesty returned this morning from Amsterdam,
and had a levee at eleven o'clock, which was very numer-
ously attended.
AmszEunam, JULY 29.—His Majesty's levee the day
before yesterday was 80 numerous that it was not over till
seven in the evening ; yet his Majesty was so little fatigued
that he was able to go afterwards to the theatre, where he
was received with the greatest joy. _

Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Helena of
Russia has arrived at Scheveningen with a numerous suite.
WARSAW, JULY 21.—The harvest commenced last
week in the vicinity of this city. The Crepe Are 0 fine

in all parts of the kingdom, that a very abundant harvest
may be expected. Some persons, however, think that the
wheat harvest only will be good.

The Opossum Packet, from the Islands, has
arrived with a mail. She sailed from St.
Thomas's the 4th of July. The Roman Ca-
tholic Bishop of Olympus arrived at Trinidad
on the 20th of June. The accounts from
Guadaloupe state, that a schooner had anchored
off the island, with four men on board, and a
number of dead bodies on the deck. She was
taken possession of by the proper authorities,
and was, no doubt, a piratical vessel, as there
were no papers to be found on board. All the
particulars that could be gathered from the surviv-
ing crew were, that they had been on a long cruise
off Cuba, and bad made no captures for so long
a time that their comrades had perished of star-
vation, and they themselves were only kept alive
by subsisting upon the bodies of those v%ho died
from day to day. Several articles of inerchandize
and a considerable amount in specie were found
secreted in the vessel, which had been landed and
the men imprisoned.

By the German Papers we learn that Count
DIEBITSCH has completely invested Shumla, and
will soon make an attempt to carry it by storm.
An Army of Observation, composed of 30,000
men is posted in the neighbourhood, and the
Count is preparing to advance along the foot of
the Balkan, by the sea coast, towards Adriauople.
The reinforcements now on the march are
ordered to proceed as rapidly as possible
to Bazardjick. The plot evidently begins to
thicken, and every day may now be expected
to teem with interesting and important intel-
ligence from the theatre of war. The PORTE,
it is understood, is making most vigorous pre-
paratiohs for resistance ; but it is added, that the
necessity of yielding is felt. In the same Papers
will be found some interesting particulars re-
specting the capture of Bilistria, to which we
refer our readers

We have just seen a work, entitled 44 an
Historical Skeich of the late Catholic Associa-
tion," which we strongly recommend to the
notice of those among our readers who may still
feel inclined to doubt the policy of Emancipation.
We recommend them to read it attentively, and
in an unprejudiced and reflective spirit, convinced
that whatever scruples they may have previously
entertained on the subject, will vanish on a closer
acquaintance with it. In this work, which we
may here take the opportunity of stating, is the
production of a gentleman of extensive political
knowledge, as regards the whole scope and ten-
dency of what has been somewhat narrowly de-
fined, as the Catholic Question—our readers will
clearly perceive that Emancipation was not so
much a matter of mere common-place expediency,
as of stern, immitigable necessity. Had it been
delayed but one Session longer—a civil war
in Ireland must infallibly have ensued. Every
hamlet, town, and province throughout that exas-
perated country was in a state little short of rebel-
lion ; the spirit of partizanship had proceeded too
far to be quelled by aught but decision ; while
the Brunswick and Catholic Clubs, marshalled
like hostile armies, in long lines throughout the
country against each other, were burning with
impatience for battle. Then, and not till then,
' did Government take up the question with a
view to its prompt adjustment. So long as they
could possibly ward off the evil hour, and satisfy
the Catholics with a meagre promise of Eman-
cipation at some future period, they did nothing
—absolutely nothing ; and it was only when the
enemy with an overwhelming force was at their
gates, that they saved the citadel by a manly
and honourable surrender. Such must be the
impression made on the mind of every unpre-
judiced reader who peruses the " Historical
Sketch of the late Catholic Association," and
such being the case, such being the stern inex-
orable nature of the necessity that wrung Eman-
cipation from the Government, surely it ought
to mollify even the most intemperate of the Ultra
Tories.

The packet Courier du Mexique arrived at
Bourdeaux, after a passage of 35 days, on the
27th July. The following is the substance of the
Speech delivered by the President on closing
the Session of the National Congress, as pub-
lished by the French Papers, under the head of
Mexico, 14th June :

GENTLEMEN, DEPUTIES ♦ND SENATORS OF THE GENERAL

CONGRESS

In conformity with what is prescribed by the Federal
Code, I present myself to the Legislative Power of the
Union, for the purpose of fulfilling the august duty of
closing the ordinary Session of the third Constitutional
Congress.
The shock that the nation sustained in the latter month
of the preceding year seemed destined to prolong its effects,
es the principles which had given rise to it usually produce
serious effects upon the public mind. But a praiseworthy
love of peace, united with the efficacious labours of the
Congresses and Governments of the State, has entirely
re-established tranquillity and confidence, and restored to
activity the general transactions of society which had been
paralyzed by the force of events.
This salutary tendency to good has been so exemplary,
that the Government has had the pleasing satisfaction of
not being obliged to have recourse to rigorous measures,
for the purpose of arresting the progress of disorder. The
Government has always relied upon
i the generous senti-
ments of the great people over which t presides.
The events of the State of Vera Cruz, which arose
from the installation of the preceding Legislature, have
terminated happily, in consequence of the decree of the
12th February last, and of the renewing of the Assembly
by the legitimate representatives of the said State.
The decree of the 11th March, suspending the salaries

enjoyed by Ministers, and the employes a•the A-aerican
Assembly, has been executed at a suitable moment.
With regard to the law of the 10th March, relating to
the expulsion of the Spaniards, the Government has
adopted all suitable measures to facilitate its effects—it has
been partly executed ; yet a great number of the good
defenders of the country have been admitted again to the
privilege of Mexican citizenship.
Our external relations continue to inspire the most 11 ct-
tering hopes. Foreign nations, interested in the progress of
their industry and of their commerce, and desirous of
opening new outlets to their capital, give to their respec-
tive Governments an energetic explanation of these ideas
of universal prosperity ; and without doubt the senti-
ments of Governments will become in unison with the
wishes of their people.

Our relations with the United States of the North
continue to be on the footing of the frankest friendship.
Although the Plenipotentiary of Colombia has left
Mexico, and although there remains no person entrusted
with the management of the political interest of the Co-
lombian Republic, yet the amicble relations which exist
between two nations of brothers have not sustained the
slightest change. _ _

The Government has beheld with sorrow the differences
existing between Colombia and Peru. The Government
has offered the services of its friendship to the belligerent
parties in central America, and has the satisfaction to an-
nounce that this disunion does not any longer exist.
Our diplomatic relations with Emope are highly satis-
factory.—Our good intelligence with France has not in any
degree diminished. Le Government a accorde rexequatur
aux diplomes du Vice-Consul pie S. M. T. C. has ap-
pointed at Vera Cruz. The same course has been pursued
with regard to the Vice-Consul of the same nation at
Mexico, where there is already a French Consul-General.
The Government is earnestly desirous of .rendering its
relations with the See of Rome still more intimate, in
order that a remedy may be applied to the wants which
afflict the Mexican Church. The Government has been
deeply affected by the death of Leo XII. : that respect-
able Head of the Universal Church was always ready to
listen to the representations of the Mexican Republics.
A Spanish expedition is positively announced as pre-
paring against the territory of the Republic.
The Executive Power does not think that the decrephl
Government of Spain will persist in this extravagant con-
duct, which will make manifest the weakness of the Spa-
nish Government, as obstinate in its 'nide as it is deficient
in resources. All the Stites are hastening to organise
their militia, and whatever may take place, the Federation
will have at its disposition a numerous army, which
will annihilate the madmen who shall dare to profane our
shores.

Legal liberty has so powerfal a hold on the hearts of
Mexicans, that the nation would transform itself into a
vast camp, if it beheld its Constitution or its independence
in danger.
Our valour and our patriotism have raised us to the
rank of Sovereign Powers, and have produced the federal
system.

Senators and Deputies,---You have fulfilled your duty as
Legislators; go and receive the blessings of your Consti•
tution ; we shall have probably soon occasion to assemble
you again.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWEI.VB 0' CLOCK

We have a number of arrivals this morning, bolt
in Foreign Mails and Ship letters. Buenos Ayres
Papers of a late date, to the 16th May ; Quebec
Papers to the sth July ; and Mamitius Papers to
the 26th April, have been received at the North and
South American Coffee-house.

(From the Buenos Ayres British Packet of May 16 )

Military preparations are still going on in this
city with increased activity, troops have embarked,
and we believe artillery, to form, it is said, an expe-
dition against Santa Fe. The Monteneros hover
about in the neighbourhood of the city, and daily
skirmishes take place. It is rumoured that another
action between the armies of General Lavalle and
Governor Lopez may be soon expected. The head
quarters of- the latter were at Lujan. In the
midst of all these warlike scenes there are sonic
who hold out the idea that an arrangement may soon
take place, and we extract the following from the
Gaceta Mercantile of yesterday :—The Govern-
ment Minister, Senor Carril, and General Pueynedon
left this city yesterday for head quarters i n a carriage,
accompanied by a numerous escort; their departure has
given rise to a thousand conjectures, but we know
nothing positive. We likewise learn that Senor
Gradas and other persons of the hussar guard,
who were taken by the Monteneros on the
6th instant, returned to Buenos Ayres. Rossas
was encamped near Arroyo de los Palma, with
some Gauchos, but they were badly armed. The
reserve of Lopez consisted of 1,122 men only, and
since the 26th, his army had suffered considerably in
desertion. Rossas has issued a proclamation, ex-
horting his followers to have constancy, patience,
and perseverance. The rumour which had been
circulated that Cordova was occupied by a division
of troops under General Paez, by the arrival of pas-
sengers is confirmed; they entered without opposition
on the Ilth April. Bustos, the Governor, retired
outside the city with a force of 800 to 1,000 men,
when Paez at the head of his army marched to
seek him; an action took place between Paez and
Busto-,, in which the latter was routed with
considerable loss and fled toward the province
of Riaga.
Some proclamations which General Paez issued
at Cordova, have been published. Tw•o of them are
dated 19th April, and state the anxiety to see the
Cordovese in the full possession of their rights and
liberties.

On the Gth inst. Don Domingo Oro, Secretary
to Governor Lopez, had an interview with the Mi.
'lister, and in the evening returned to his post. It
is said he was not invested with any official power.

(From the Tiempo, Map 12.)

. .
We learn from good an:hority that General Ri-
viera has resolved to send a force of 500 men to
Buenos Ayres, who are to embark from some part
of the Uraguay; and we are positively informed that
Government are preparing a respectable force, to be
under the command of Admiral Brown, to proceed
against Santa Fe.
