AMERICA.

NEW YORK, JAN. 8.

Mr. Gilbert Deblois, of Bolton, paffenger in the
fchooner Adela, from Cayenne, informs, that he left
the port of Monte Video in the river Plata, on the
25th of OEtober laf, in a French privateer, called
l'Oifeau, Captain Biduis (the only veifel that had,
or would have liberty to depart the port fur Tome
months), and has handed us. the following intelli•
genet relative to South America :
[After giving an account of the capture of Buenos Ayres by the
Britifh, and the re capture by the Spaniards, the article proceeds
44 Sir Home Popham was in Buenos Ayres when
it was retaken, and with great difficulty effeaed his
efcace in a boat to his (hips ; after which, with the
exception of one gun brig, left cruizing between the
Colonia and Buenos Ayres, he brought his fquadron
(conlitting of his own (hip, the Diadem, of 64 guns,
Captain King ; Raifonable, 64, Captain Rowley ;
Diomede, ss, Captain Phillips ; one frigate, two
floops of war, and feveral armed tranfports), down
the fiver, and anchored in full view of the harbour
of Monte Video.

Sir Home had fent into Monte Video upwards
of thirty flags of truce, demanding General Beresford
aadhis troops, a fupply of provilions, and fume me-
dicines for his lick and wounded. The Governor,
tired of fuch bufinefs, generoufly fent Sir Home Pop-
ham a fupply of frefh provifious, and twenty-three
Englifh feamen, who were brought into Monte Video
a few months previous in an Englifh Guineaman,
and faying that he fhould not refpat any more flags
of truce from that time.

" Sir Home Popham anfwered the Governor's ci-
vility by accepting the fre(h fupply of provifions, and
receiving the twenty-three feamen ; but contrary to
the etiquette obferved in time of war in an exchange
of prifoners, he refuted to deliver up the like number
of Spaniards, which he might very eafily have done,
as he had more than ninety in his poffeffion, who
were taken from a fmall town on the fouth fide of
the river.

41 Several fkirmifhes had taken place between the
Englint Tails and Spanifh gun boats and forts. and
almoft every day they fainted Monte Video with 32
and 381 b. fhot, which, to thofe people who were
peaceably attending to their bufinefs, and efpecially
the young ladies, who by their religion were obliged
to attend mafs every day, was extremely ungentecl
and inconvenient. For a few days previous to Mr.
D.'s departure, an Englifh brig fent a number of
heavy fhot into and over the city, fume of which had
the audacity to tear away the S. E. corner of Saint
Felippe's Church—however, not many lives were loft
or much damage done.
44 JAW. 9.—lt appears that the amount of the tef-
tiroony againft Colonel Burr was as follows :—that
he bad been concerned in the purchafe of four hun-
dred thoufand acres of land in Louifiana, nearly op-
pofite the Natchez—that the young and enterprifing
perfons who were to accompany him, were to fettle
on the land—that each had a mufket. and was to ad
as a foldier, under Burr, againft the Spaniards in cafe
of a war, provided Government approved of it ; and
that Mr. Jefferfon was acquainted with the whole of
this projett many months once. It is added, that one
year's provifions for the fupport of the fettlers had
been purchafed for 40,000 dollars ; and that as much
more had been expended fur inftruments of agricul•
cure. Burr was daily expelled at Wathington.
" On the 6th of January an exprefs arrived at New
York, with the news of Mr. Burr having commenced
an adion again& the Government of the United States,
to recover damages for the illegal obarudions to his
enterprife, in fettling in his land, and likewife ma-
naging his affairs in his own way.
64 It was reported at Philadelphia, that General
Adair, a Senator of the United States, had teQified
that he had a perfonal knowledge of a correfpondence
between Colonel Burr and the Prefident, relative to
a military equipment to ad againft the Spanifh pof-
feflions in Louifiana, and to undertake the conqueft
of the Florida' ; that the Prefident declined the offer
for the prefenr, but that Burr's preparations were
made under the fandion of Government. The cor-
refpondence is faid to have taken place fourteenmonths
ago, and the expedition is fuppofed to be connected
with that of Miranda.

46 J.W. to.—The American General Wilkinfon,
having arrived with his troops on the left bank of
the Sabine, found the Spanifh Commandant potted
on the oppoilte bank. On the 6th November the latter
fell back, and Gen. Wilkinfon marched his troops to
New Orleans; both having agreed to wait the event of
the pending negociations ; but both, at the famE time,
receiving reinforcements. By the New York Gazette
of the sth, it appears that the Cambrian frigate, in
violation of the order which prohibited the entrance
of that chip into any harbour of the States, had com-
pelled an American pilot to conduit her into Hamp-
ton Roads, where fhe vieualled and watered. The
Cullom houfe officer who came on board to enquire
concerning her, was ordered out of the fhip. A
flatement of this affair bad been fent off to the Sem.
tary of SCAM

An extrael of a letter from St. Jago, (one of
the Cape de Verde Winds) dated Nov. 7, fays there
are two Britiflt tranfperts here, which arrived yeller-
day, having parted with a fleet of thirty fail, bound
ro the River Plata. The report here is, that both
Monte Video and Buenos Ayres, are again in poffvf-
fin of the Britills."
