Boston Papers to the 6th of April, and New York
to the 9th, arrived this forenoen•
A vessel, which arrived from Buenos Ayres at
New York on the Ist of April, had brought accounts
to as late a date as the 21st January. The following
it given as the substance of them:
Commodore HARDY had lately left Buenos Ayres,
in the CREOLE frigate, for Monte Video, and was to
sail from thence in the SUPERB, 74, accompanied by
the CREOLE, for the Pacific Ocean, in the latter part
of January. The Own, GLEtivowna frigate, Cap-
tain SPENCER, sailed from Monte Video in Decem-
ber, also for the Pacific. A French squadron, com-
posed of a 74 and one or two frigates, Went round
the Cape, some time before, which was assigned as a
reason for Commodore Haany's going. The British
sloop of war SLANEY had arrived at Btienos Ayres,
to afford protection to the British commerce.
Most of the Deputies elected by the Province of
Buenos Ayres for the Congress to be held at Cordova,
in January, in virtue of the treaty of peace with Santa
Fe, in November, had refused to go, alleging as an
excuse the danger to which they were personally ex-
posed from the caprice of the populace. It was not
supposed that anything effectual would bt done in the
Congress towards forming a General •Oovernment.
Each province managed its own affairs. Paraguay
still kept up her system of non-intercourse s ith the

rest. A RTIOAS had claimed some months before an
asylum with the Governor of that province (Flux-
CIA) for himself and a few followers, which was
granted him in a generous and liberal manner. He
had been completely beaten by the Portuguese, and
lastly by RAMIREZ, Governor of Entre Rios, and it
was supposed that his political career was at an end.
The Govet nor of Buenos Ayres, RODRIGUEZ, was
absent in the interior, prosecuting a war against the
Indians, who have become of late very troublesome,
and caused great alarm ; they had committed some
horrid excesses, plundering towns, carrying off the
women, &c. It was supposed that they were insti-
gated by CARRERA and other discontented anarchists.
The public tranquillity of Buenos Ayres had not
been disturbed since the bloody Revolution of the be-
ginning of October, but several persons had lately
been arrested on suspicion of secretly conspiring
against the Government. It was reported that RA-
MIREZ, with a considerable force, was on his way
towards Buenos Ayres, determined to arrange its
internal affairs so as to meet the views of the other
provinces ; the prospects for the future were far from
flattering—the Government paper was at an enormous
discornt—the value of property much reduced, and
the cultivation of the country greatly neglected.

The last news from Chili was to the sth of Decem-
ber. SAN MARTIN with his army was at Ancon on
the 9th November (a little north of Lima)—be was
to invest Lima by land while Lora COCHRANE block-
aded it by sea.

It was reported at Buenos lyres that a Revolution
-had broke out ih Chili, headed by the Carrera party,
and that they had possession of Conception—these.

reports were, however, vague and contradictory.
The Spanish Legation sent out by the KING after
the establishment of the Constitution, arrived at
Buenos Ayres on the 4th of December, and left it in
a precipitate manner in the night of the sth, without
effecting anything—the Buenos Ayres Government
insisting as a base of any negotiation that they should
acknowledge their independence.
From Hayti there are also accounts to the 22d of
March. Affairs there still continued in a very unset-
tled state. The rebel General GEROME, who headed
the revolt at Gonaives, was taken on the 15th, and,
as he made resistance, was immediately shot by the
soldiers who took him. On the 16th, a rebel Colonel
and Captain were shot. On the 18th, twelve others,
insurgents, were shot.
President BoyEn, with_his Staff, was to leave Port-
au-Prince on the 23d, for the northern department,
and would not return till the end of July. He had
issued the following Proclamation :

" Important events having called me to the quarters of Ante-
bonhe and the department of the North, I am therefore unable,
in conformity with the 75th Article of the Constitution, to pro-
ceed to the opening of the House of Representatives of the Conn-
snons on the lst of April next. I have, therefore prorogued the
alerting until the Ist of August following, when the Members
Parsing it are invited to assemble.

Gi.en as. Port-au-Prince, 10th Mach. (Signed)
" JEAN PIERRE BOYER, President of Hayti."

Intelligent Gentlemen, who have recently returned
from St.Pomingo, give a deplorable picture of affairs
at that place, under the adninistratioa of BOYER,
who is represented as a man of no energy or decision
cif ch.uacter ; and his reputed mildness is not appre-
ciated as a very estimable trait by such people 4$ the

Haytians. At the Cape, the improvements intro-
diced by Cmusronta in manufactures, arts, and
trade, had much declined, and anarchy, discard, and
civil jealousies, with their concomitant train of evils,
prevailed. The dispersion of the treasures amassed
by the late EMPEROR, had tended to increase the ha-
bitual idleness of the people.
It is stated as a fact, that one of the Generals plun-
dered from the Imperial Treasury four hundred thou-
sand dollars, before the Republican President took
possession of Sans Souci. The College at the Cape
had ceased its operations, and the learned Professors
were dispersed. At Port-au-Prince, likewise, insu-
bordination, intrigue, and disregard of laws, were
the order of the day. The army of l3ovaa was under
bad discipline ; it was not uncommon to see an Of-
flier with gold epaulets, and all the ornaments of
his rank, and at the same time bare-footed and
bare-legged.

All things appeared to be paving the way for some
ambitious Chief to raise his standard, " cry havock,
and let slip the dogs of war," and wade through
rivers of blood up to the Throne. There is an inve-
terate hatred subsisting between the Blacks and Mu-
lattoes, the consequences of which are often noticed.
GALE AT New ORLICANSA severe gale from the
North-eau commenced at New Orleans on the sth of
March, which lasted three days, and did much da-1
mage. A brig from Nanta (name unknown), with
a valuable cargo, and 30,000 dollars in specie, was
lost. The Mate and five of the passengers took to the
long-boat, and have not.been heard of since. The
Captain and remainder of the crew are safe on shore.
Several other vessels have also been wrecked:

A Paris journal of Thursday was received last nigh
by express, from which the following are extracts.—
The other papers, due to-day, have not arrived.

PARIS, MAY 3.

According to accounts from Teriteswar, ortho 6th
of April, the army of Prince Ypsilanti is stated- by
the news from Moldavia to amount to 50,000 men,
and thence they have marched to the banks of the
Danube, whence they are stopped by the inundatioo.
This delay, however, enables-many volunteers to join
them. The Prince, it seems,bas published a Procla-
mation, couched in very modest terms, in the Turkish
language, promising the Musselmen security fcr their
persons and property, if they are quiet. It is said
the Turkish farmers are inclined to favour the Greeks,
being subject to the satne tyranny as they are.
