F')REIGN INTELLIGENCE.

BRAZIL.

,A packet has arrived from Rio de Janeiro,
'bringing ativices to the 3d October. The fol.
lowing -extracts of letters contain an accurate
swill-mu of the intelligence from that quarter

" SEe7.ll.—This
,Morning the. French squa-
dron; consisting 'of the Colustus of 80 guns, the
Galatea frigate` of 52, and the Echo corvette of
quitted" tirti's port. The two first will'
::,•coutinue their cruize, and their next destination
Btrenos-Ayies.• The corvette conveys M.
-144iIebaud; • the French Consul, to Bahia, from
'-‘syhence it will repair to Pernambuco, to leave M.
1:*10,-, tire, Vice-Consul, and afterwards, return to
'rance. The final destination of the other two
NEisseis cannot .be 'ascertained : from a declaration
mades however, by some of the officers, that they
-
:shall revisit thisscity within six.months, it is con-
ectnred they will double Cape-Horn, and pro-
ce'rtd to Lima. The lottg stay Of, this squadron, it
is said; has beeti, viewed with some jealousy by
t'he King. ...The equipments are i.ery splendid ;
.so.much 'so, as to.aPpear destined for some affair
'of parade rather than for warlike operatiOns. The
nurnber _ of officers was cOnsiderable ; and the
crews, who were habited in white on festival
1-diays, and in blue on working .days, seemed, for
reach sailors, to be in highrcondition. The-ex-
lense in provisions, incurred during their stay,
was very great." • s'
21.—The Americans, it seems, are to
be beforehand' with us in acknowledging the
independence, of the South-American Govern-
ments. The Constellation frigate, which is
,just
arrived from the-United States, has, it is.under-
siood; a Minister on board for 'Buenos-Ayres,
-which is a virtual- admission of their rank, as a
separate state. The Constellation will after-
Ards proceed to,Valparaiso, or Lima, to.relieve
the frigate stationed there, and to protect their
trade in the Pacific...
43 SEPT. 30.—We have very late news from
Spain by the AchilleS Spanish brig of war, which
arrived here on the 22d instant, in 39 days, from
Cadiz. The object of her voyage is 'to convey
three Royal . Commissioners, with proposals to
the Government of. the River Plata for a recon-
ciliation: These CommisSionerS 'are Don. Manuel
Martin-Ma.these, Officer of the Navy ; Herrera,
Colonel of Artillery'l and Conlin, who formerly
was in the employnient of the Phillipine Con-
party, but in this mission bears the title of Secre-
. tary "de Decretos." The particulars of their
sf:ructions are not known; but from certain,hints,
. Ah.d from the tendency of the Spanish news-
papers, there is no doubt but that they act on
theT old, and With them invariable principle,
-of' the acknowledgment of Spanish Sovereignty.
-' If so, these Commissioners might have remained
at borne, for they may rest well assured' that on
that principle their mission • will be perfectly
fruitless.

" OCT. I.—The Icarus sloop of wat sailed, for
Europe on the 28th ult., with specie On board.
flys Majesty's ship Conway arrived here the same
day, under orders to explore the land newly dis.-
coxered to the south of Cape Horn.
" According to the latest intelligence from
Lima, it Would seem that, a Revolution is on the
eve of-breaking out in Peru. Many families of
.causequeTice have taken the alarm, and have left
it to take refuge in the mother country. An
'English. vessel, which arrived .here in GO days
from Lima, has -many of these individuals ou
boa-rd. It was known there that a visit from
the C4ilian troops was §hortly to be expected, in
consequeiiceof whic'a the Viceroy had demanded
a million of dollars from the merchants, who im-
mediately paid that sum."
