SOUTH AMERICA.

Buenos Ayres Papers to the 22d of June, which ar-
rived in the course of yesterday, supply us with some
facts not destitute of interest in addition to those which
appeared in our last publication, The Emperor of
Brazil, determined to prove the legitimacy of his claim
upon Monte Video, takes the shortest mode of going .to
work: and assuming that it owes him allegiance, sleclarc s
its resistance rebellion. The Government of Buenos Ayres,
on the other hand, pronounces the Imperial authority
exercised over Monte Video an usurpation ; and declar:
ing the Banda Oriental a part of its own territory,
places hisnour on,the side of resistance and treason on
that of submission to Brazil. Thus the Imperial and
Republican Authorities in the New World join issue
about their right to the possession of a province to
which neither might be entitled if the will of the inha-
bitants were consulted ; and thus the first war may be
kindled in America between Brazil and the Spanish
Republics respecting a disputed claim which ori.zinated
before their emancipation, and which they inherit as a
legacy of discord from their parent *States. If the Em•
peror Don Pedro persists* in his pretension, he will have.
to fight not only Buenos Ayres, but Peru and its other
Allies. Such at least would appear to be the ca-.e, if
the statements ini the following letter can be relied on

• " POTOSI, MAY 25.
ig All is quiet here. The only thing in the shape of
news that I lave to communicate is, that the Brazilians
have invaded Chiquitos, their advanced posts being
within 40 leagues of Santa Cruz de la Sierra. General
Sucre thinks of sending an expedition not only to drive
the Portuguese from the Peruvian territory, but to con.
quer as much of Brazil as possible. Four hundred men
have already marched from Chuquisaca to Sant Cruz,
where they will join 600 more, under the orders ot,
Colonel Vidile. We have 10,000 good troops, per-
fectly equipped and armed, on this side of the Desa-
guedero ; and it is not improbable that two or three.
thousand will penetrate into Brazil, and be enabled,
Perhaps, to cause a favourable diversion, should the
Buenos Ayres Government commence hostilities against
the' Emperor's foicis, occupying the Banda

" ANTONIO JOSE DE SUCRE."

In the 47th number of the Correo de Araueo is in-
serted the following communication from the Spanish
Governor of the Province of Chiloe, to the Secretary of
State for the Republic of Chili:

" ST. Ctititaaa, (Canna), 'Attack§ 7, 1E25.
" The Governor and Commander-in-Chief •of the
Province of Chili has the honour of informing ycur
honour of the reception of Tour agreeable .note of the
31st of January lag inviting him, on the part Of his
Government, to a fiaielaly compromise and rncgrpoia.

consequence of the dam tunate. battle
,of !Ayacucho,
where the Royal army, under the command of the Vice-
roy, Don Jose de la Serna, was' defea.ed.
" Although this povernment had been already in-
formed of the event vahich gave rise to this communi-
cation, it was the dutj of the Goveknor to make it known
to the inhabitants of.the province with all the circum-
spection the case demanded. He has personally visited
the different part of the province, and having assembled
the people, has circumstantially related to them the
events which have happened to them in'Perti, and made ,
known your request, abiding by their opinion, and that
they might mark out the line of conduct which he ought
to observe in consequence of this, following the prin-
ciple, that the Government is for the people, and not
the people for the Government. But a series of events
unfavourable to the arms of the King its both America.:,
Ms rendered the people inexorable; and the firM Con-
viction, that the time has not yet come fur them to
change their dominion, has determined- thenr to site
you official notice of this, and they have agreed, in de-
ferent meetings held for the -purpose, that the unhappy
event at Ayacucho should be ieger'ded 24 a partial mis-
fortune to the metropolis, on which this worthy province
directly and legitimately depends; th*{'to the metro-
polis this province has consecrated its ezistence, and
made sacrifices for it which are notorious, and Would be
illusory, if, by an incident of this nature, it should take
a step of which it might afterwards repent.
It is evident tliat the Vice Royalties of Mexico,
Buenos Apes, Santa Fe, Peru, and Chili, have obtained
the triumph to which they aspired 'over their brethren,'
the Spaniards ; and for this it is. also well known that
the spirit of anarchy already reigns among them, and
internally threatens their destruction.- Their forms cf
Government haye not yet assumed the character of an
effective establishment, A is fully known by the en.-
cumstancersufficiently notorious; that this independence

Letters from Corfu of the 4th ult. which may be re-
lied on, confirm the official news already received'
through various other channels, as to the landing of the
Greek islanders in the Mores. They likewise confirm,
the retreat of Isammir PACIIA from the neighbour-
hood of Napoli di Romani's', towards Tripolizzp, in
consequence of the attack of YPSILANTI. The same
letters state, that the Greek Rat is very active. It con-
sists of sixty-fire vessels, well armed and equipped, and
there is no • doubt that k will soon succeed in raising
the siege of the places now blockaded by the Turk-
sb fleets.

As to Missolonghi, not only is it in the possession of
the Greeks, but it is even far from being in danger of
surrendering, having received a supply of provisions.
Only three days ago we suggested an idea that the
depsossion of the Funds was not entirely unconnected
it*. the aspect of affairs in Europe ; and it certainly
•-. appear to us, taking all circumstances into C011ii•
defatjot, that the note-of preparation was 'beginning
to be beard in France. That we, thouib, perhaps,
standing alone in that opinion among the journalists
of this country, are riot singular in our surmises, will,

appear. from the following. shrewd and well•writte
observations, in the Coatwercial 4firerliset of New
York, of the 6th ult. to which we invite the serious at-
Mid** of nor Braders :
el FRAN= AND TIFIN WEST isms.

.0 Tor a considerable time past, vim rumour have been *goat,
that by i secret arrangement between France and Spain, the islands
of Cuba and Porto Rico were to be surrendered to the firmer by
the latter. as an isidemoky for the restoration of Ferdinand to the
absolute sway of ids kingdom. These reports. however, reached
us through such suspicious channels, and in such a • quesdoaable
shape,' that we paid link or no anemias to thins. Bat we are not
quite sore, front the secret movements of the French in the West
Indies, that Ms 101 l and Anew lareathess have not both been
outwitted by the wily Gael. Bow Mine such a formidable fleet
so suddenly at Portno:Priaml A squadron of four ships of the
line, and frigates, &c. to the number of tea or twelve sail, were
certainly not necessary to Meetly the Treaty of recognition of
Haytien independence. It is true, that some American Editors
have construed this formidable array into a semi-hostile armament,
designed to compel the acceptance of the French Ultimatum at the
mouth of their cannon. But this could not have been the case.
It is well known, that the Haytien Conunissionen had been In

France, and concluded the principles of the Treaty, leaving only
the amount of the item of indemnity to the former colonists, for
subsequent arrangement. Ner is this ail. We do not understand
that there were any troops on based (or homily operations, nor did
the appearance of the squadron create either surprise or alarm
on its arrival in the harbour of the Haytieu Capital. Every
thing seems to have beast perfectly understood, and the peo-
ple prepared for dancing and feasting, instead of fighting.—
There is, therefore, no ground for this suppoeiden. Again : how

came IQ formidable a Frenek.Astadroa in the West India seas?
Nome his sailed from Franey. As armed Beet of this magnitude
mold Mot sail from any Ifmtopean port without the knowledge of
the agents of the British Owserunsent. And none such has sailed
in a body. The fast upon this point seems to be this: France has,
Irma tine to doge been. sending out armed vessels singly, apps.
.rendy for different destinations.—We have heard of some off Porto
Rico, of taken at La Guayra, and other‘ higher up the Gulf of
,idezico, or opine other points of the Smith American coast. And
as so Beet has left France, it is obvious that these several vessels

bust banked secret intractions to rendezvous at a certain place

on a given time. And as this force was not wanted at St. Domingo,
the question arises for what purpose has it been assembled there?
We leave the solution for wiser beads than oar own; but suppose
the neat news we bear of k will be, that it has peaceably passed
the More, and is snugly in command of the Havannah. Some
folks, we think, would look queerly, both at Washington and
in London. There have, moreover, bean other reports in circula-
tion. Don invests to yield the Governorship of Cuba to another.
Can it be to a French Governor ? It has also been asserted,that
Spain bas ceded California and the Balearic islands to Russia; in
return for which, the latter Power is to furnish 12,000 troops for
the reduction of Mexico. Are France and Ramie, then acting in
concert? And is one or both to supply troops for the subjugation of
the South American Republics? We think not. Rot still, France
claims an indemnity der sustaining the tottering throne of
Ferdinand."

Nur is the Commercial Advertiser the only American
Paper that notices the rumour of the occupation of
Cuba by the French, as will be seen by the subjoined
extract from the New York Roe-Ming Post; the report,
too, appears to have prevailed at Jamaica, for the Ply-
mouth Journal received this morninr, says, 44 The Ri-
naldo packet, Lieutenant Moores, which arrived on
Monday morning at Falmouth, from Jamaica, brings a,
report that Cube hid been taken possession of by the
French, wh► have a large naval force in the West
Indies. His Majesty's sloop TIMACIAN had been din-
parched to Cuba to learn the paruiculars; and the Ri-
naldo was detained several hours to bring dispatches.
The rumour was very generally believed at Jamaica,
when the Rinaldo left."

The following is the statement of the New York
Paper to which we have alluded:
" Curta.-We observe, by the New Orleans Papers,
that intelligence has been recently received in thAt city,
confirming the statement we some time ago published,
respecting the Treaty between Spain' and France, by
which Cuba and Porto Rico were to be occupied by
the latter. It woulciseem, according to some accounts,
that the business is to be managed in such a way as
not to give umbrage to Great Britain, the United States,
or the South Anierican Republics; !or although Go-
vernor Vivis is to be superseded, and a successor ap-
pointed, entirely under French influence; the Spanish
flag is still to wave on the Castle. It is supposed that
the concentration of the large French fleet, which was
lately off St. Domingo, has some reference to this
arrangement."

Notwithstanding all these tumours, we do not see
how France can occupy Cuba, without a breach of good
faith towards this country, for it will be recollected how
she di,avowed all designs against the Spanish Colonies,
in the communications which took place on this subject
between the British and French Governments in 1823.
On the 3d of October in that year, in a conference which
Mr. Secretary CANNING had with the French Ambas-
sador, Prince de POLIGNAC, the latter declared, That
France declaimed on her part any intention or desire
to avail herself of the present state of .the Colonies, in
the present situation of France towards Spain, to ap-
propriate to herself any part of the Spanish possessions
in America. or to obtain for herself any exclusive advan-
tages." The Prince also declared, in the name of his
Government, that France ig abjured in any case, any
design of acting against the colonies by force of amis."
Now as no change has taken place in the situation of
the colonies, or the relations between Franoe and Spain,
since this declaration was made, we do not see bow
France can seise on Cuba. without a gross violation of
the pledge thus solemnly given.

This forenoon we received the Paris Papers of Toes.
day, and the Moniker of- Wednesday; and the Etoik
of yesterday, by express. The official part of the Mod-
tear of Tuesday and Wednesday contains three tele.
graphic dispatches; the first is from the Commandant
of Marine at Brest, dated the 29th of August, an-
nouncing the arrival in the-roads of tibe tine, which,
left St. Domingo on the SOth of July, on board
three Envoys from that Island. A seisitid '
dispatch, dated Tuesday,- states, that •tbe biome (of
Hari) had sanctioned unceaditionally -dscOrdonearkee

sentiments manifested at' Hayti by all toTasses' of
the population, as well as. tNe Authoritiels, is of a
character to be the most agreeable to his MAJESTY.
—The third telegraphic dirp itch is from Bayonne, and
contains a dispatch from the French Charge d'Affaires
at St. Ildefons', to the French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, dated 11 o'clock at night, on the '2sth of
August. It states, that the pursuit of BESSIERES con-
tinues, ani th .t he has tetired to the mountains in
the province of Cuenca. It adds, that everything is
perfectly tranquil in Madrid and the provinces: A
letter from Saville, of the 12th ult. states, that numerous
arrests continue to be made.

The following eatracts are from the Etoile, da:ed
yesterday :

AUGSBURG, AUGUST 27.

The Journal of Rome has published letters from Alexandria of
the 11th June, stating that an army of 30,C00 men, which Getteral
Boyer is oritittitikg on the European pth.cfple, is actually assem-
bled in the eniirons of Cairo. It is said that 6000 will be imme-
diately embarked for the Morea. The same Journal states, on the
authority of letters from Corfu of the 26th July, that accounts had
been received from Zante, announcing that the negociations which
were begun near Ttipol:zza, between Colocotroni and Ibrahim
Pasha, still continue. In the Island of Candle, they expect 12,000
Egyptians, to reinforce Ibrahim Pacha. Jussuf Paeha, who com-
mands at Patrat, arrived with 2000 men in the plains of Corinth,
to open a communication with the Egyptians.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE

" PARIS, AUGUST 29.

" Speculation has been afloat as to the object of the Duke
of Wellington's visit to Paris; but we are assured it had no political'
'object whatever. His Grace dined several times with the King of
France, the Royal Family, and chief Ministerial characters; and
while most of •he French Pipers were busily speculating on his
movements, sending him off to Brussels, and various other places.
to meet Lord Liverpool, Ste. his Grace bad never left Paris.

" The weather is again very hot in Paris, though less so than
formerly ; the thermometer has been for several days about 53 deg.
Fahrenheit, and but very little rain has fallen.

" Sir Henry Torrens is shortly expected in Paris, as also Sir
Walter Scott. The object of the latter is said to be, collecting ma-
terials for bis proposed Life of Bonaparte. A •ery neat print of
Bonaparte, after his death at St. Helena, representing the interior,
of his apartment, has just appeared in Paris."

This forenoon we received Frankfort Papers to the
26th ultimo, and Dutch Papers to the 81st. An arti-
cle from Sr. Petersburgh, contains an allusion to the
Greeks, and state!, that in consequence of the dif-
ferences between Rus,ia and the Porte, the departure
of the Ambassador from the former to the latter, is
indefinitely postponed. _The follo:iiing are extracts :

VIENNA, AUGUST 20.

The negociations with Constantinople are at present,
very active ; matters of importance are under discus-
sion, which are, however, covered tvith an impene-
trable veil. As the toads are now in very good condi-.
tion, the Couriers generally travel from Vienna to

'Constantinople %in 12 or 19 hours. An extraordinary
Courier has arriled from Constantinople, with dis,
patches hem th• Austrian Wei nuncio, Baron Orress-
rens ; but the Austrian Chancery has not thought fit
Ito make known the intelligence received. We expect
his Imperial Highness the Archduke Palatine, who will
pass some time heie previously to the opening of the
Diet at Presburg. Several regiments are gone to ihst
city, to do duty there during the Sitting of the Diet.
