leached, it appears, the Havannall on tlic 91 of Decem-
ber; and sailed again on the `list of the same month,
bringing,back dispatches from Flues, the Governor of

Dutch Papers to the kith have reached us. They
contain intelligence from Odessa to the beginning of the
present month. It is stated that Lord Brnasorono
had received instructions from England to continue
the negocialions for arranging the differences between
Russia and the Porte, and that much anxiety was
felt to know what rt M. MINZIACKY would take in
the affair, as it was reported that his mission was
purely of a mercantile nature. The conferences which
were to take place at St. Petcrsburgh, on the subject of
Greece, with the British Minister, Sir C. BAGOr, had
however been postponed till the result of M. MIN..
ZIACKY'S mission was known. It would appear from
this circumstance, that the object of that mission
em-
braced still greater interests than those of trade, and
that it was connected more or less with concessions to
the Greeks, if not with the recognition of their inde-
pendence. The Rusiian Senator, TATISCIIEPF, was to
return to Vienna at the beginning of March on a mission
which was supposed to be connected with those affairs.

Gibraltar Papers to the 6th instant reached us last
night, confirming the accounts of the captutes of the
Barbary Pirates.
Letters from the Levant announce that it has.been
impossible hitherto to come to an arrangement with the
Tutkish Authorities relative vs the landing of goods
destined for Russian Ports in the Black Sea. So many
formalities are enforced, that the Captains of ships
prefer selling their cargoes in the ports where they
happen to be, rather than wait months before they can
obtain from Constantinople permission to continue their
voyage. It is remarked that the Porte aims particu-
larly to throw obstacles in the way of Europeans trad-
ing with the Russian ports, and to accomplish this
object, avails- itself sometimes of one 'pretext, and
sometimes of another. It still exercises, with the greatest
rigour, the right of visiting neutral vessels in its ports,
alleging the necessity of being convinced that there are
on board such vessels neither Greek slaves, nor prsperty
belonging to. the Greeks.
By an arrival from Oran, the intelligence repecti ng
the Algerine squadron is confirmed, with the addition
that five Spanish vessels have been captured by them.

Mercantile advices from Buenos Ayres, dated the
20th November, have been received, and their contents
have created some uneasiness among those interested in
that quarter. The Indians have for a coatiderable time
past been very unsettled and troublesome, and it was
evident that they were instigated by disaffected persons
who had absented themselves from the capital. They
bad, in fact, made several sudden incursions into. the
Province, driving away cattle, carrying off?the women,
and butchering the men who were so unfortunate as to
fall into their hands. The small detachments of troops
stationed co the frontiers had either been defeated or
compelled to retire, and the success the Indians had met
with rendered them more daring. The terror spread
throughout thd' Province was so great, that the planters
and farmers, with their families and most valuable ef-
fects, were leaving their estates, and coming into the
town for protection. Another almost equally alarming.
calamity' had occurred. No rain had fallen for a consi-
derable time, and the drought was so great, that the
cattle were, dying in 'every direction, or withdrawing to
the more secluded parts of the country, to escape from
the heat. This had rendered meat unusually scarce,
and the military detachment stationed at Entre Rios,
were, at the time the above letters came away, actually
living-on Mares' flesh. The Government were adopting
the most energetic measures against the Indians, and no
doubt they would succeed in putting a stop to their in-
cursions ; but this could not be done for some time, and
not without considerable losses and expense. It is said
that the Indians had-been highly incensed against the
Government, on account of its living attempted to ex-
tend the frontiers, Which they consider as un infringe-
-Ment on their own lands. Affairs were so extremely
critical, that the Government 6 per cent. Stock, which •
a.iittle before was at 45, had fallen to 40, and even that
price was nominal, as there were co purchasers.
