SOUTH AMERICA.
Some accounts have been received of the nee. \ricc_
roy having entered on his functions. From the letter
given in a preceding column, ani the document with
which it is accompanied, it appears that t!.e arnica
system of Spain with regard to her colonies t,,1l be
followed by the Junta. It will therefore certainlyk"
a question fcr Great Britain to consider—How far it
is consistent with sound policy
between to promote ol:eAtilttc
subjecticte
and intimate unicn Spain and her American 1
territories, which shall exclude usfrom any directinter 1
course with these colonies ; and which
every bale of merchandize to the payment of what. 1
ever duties the Supreme Government shall impose,
whatever may be its character, and from whatever
quarter its power may emanate.

Private accounts from France, received through
Guernsey, repeat the report of the indisposition of the •
French Emperor. His malady is said to be a brain
fever. We subjoin an extract from a Guernsey letter :
" GUERNSEY, OCIOBER 1.
" A vessel is arrived here which left Cherbourg on Frily
last. The letters by her inform us, thit accounts had mach.
that place from Paris, which leave RO doubt that the Emperor
NAPOLYON was very ill at his palace of Schocnbrunn. Hi: cis-
order is a brain Wirer, brought on by excessive fatigue in his per-
sonal attentions to every branch of his army. Most certain is.
that two physicians and two surgeons suddenly left Par's last
week to attend him. They proceeded on their journey wita
traordinary speed."

GERMAN PAPERS?
We have received Letters and Papers from the •
Elbe to a late date, brought by the Ann, which left
Heligoland on the 29th ult.
The Journals repeat the statements before received,
of the prolongation of the Armistice on the Danube;
but still there is a want of harmony in the dates and
particulars.
The private letters are of more importance.
opposition to the general tenor of the statements vi
the printed journals, they are pretty unanimous in ex.
pressing an opinion that hostilities are on the eve of
recommencing between France and Austria. The
French army is drawn up on the line marked outin
the Armistice, and its head-quarters are advanced
from Schoenbrunn to Presburgh.
In an article from Vienna, of the 23d ult. disease
is said to prevail in the Austrian ranks, but it will Le
recollected that this report comes from I suspicicus
source, the Vienna press being of course under
French controul.
AUSTRIA, AUGUST CO.
On the name-day of her Majesty the Empress
Louisa of Austria, the Marshal Duke of Friuli tte:s
sent to Comorn, from Sehoenbrun, to compliment her
Majesty in the name of the Emperor Napoleon.
VIENNA, AUGUST CO.
The armistice which was to. have terminated on the
30th instant, has been prolonged for three necks, vir.
from the 31st August to the 20th September. The
reason assigned for this is, the great distance of the
Court of St. Petersburgh, which is materially ir.
terested in the negociations, as otherwise no furtlee
prolongation would have taken place.
As the City of Triest has hitherto not been able to
t pay more than a small part of the war contributicn
imposed on it, the merchants there have now been Ji•
vided into four classes. Those of the Ist class are to
pay 146,000 livres, and those of the lowest 10,000,
yet on conditions of forthwith retiibuting the whe!e
upon the sum total of the inhabitants agreeable to
means every one is possessed of.
AUGUST 30.
The French, since the armistice, have been ex
trernely active. Prodigious entrenchments cover all
the bridges of the Danube, "and reader Vienna
cessible to an hostile army. The triple entrench-
ment which covets the bridge; called Tabordonate i;
especially deserving oladmiration. A corps of? 0,01
men is encamped there. Within these few weeks a
number of officers of artillery, and five new regi-
ments, have arrived here from Paris.
The Austrians continue to carry on their militare
preparations in Hungary with great activity. r An
, imperial order of the day, the French army is distri•
buttd in five arrondisranentr, viz, these of Lisa
Brunn, Presburgh, Gratz, and Triest.
The negociations for peace, at Altenburgh, are
carried on with the utmost activity, at least if we
may judge from the number of Couriers continealle
coming from, and going to that place.—On
the 20th of August, the Duke of Cadore (Lotint .
Champagny ), gave a splendid ball, at tvlikli all the
nobility in the vicinity were pre.seut.
The Emperor Napoleon frequently makes evil-
sions on horseback in the neighbourhood of Vien..a,
I accompanied by the Viceroy of Italy, the Prince Cf
Neufchatel, General Walther, Commandant ut tbe
Guard, and other Gencrals. It is said that the fen-
peror , will go for some day,, to Brunn and to Zna)
