This morning we have another arrival from Bue-
nos Ayres, which brings us letters from that place to
the clase of last year. A letter, dated Buenos Ayres,
December 31st, states as follows :--
e, Lord COCHRANE has arrived in Chili, and on
the 4th inst. entered St. Jago, where he was received
with every mark of respect. He has been offered the
command of the Chili Squadron, which he is expect-
ed immediately to assume. The merchant vessels in
Valparaiso are likely to he much distressed for sea-
men—every one is running to join Lord COCHRANE."

The Paris Papers of Monday and Tuesday arrived
this forenoon.—The Chamber of Deputies had on
Monday a public sitting, in which the only business
transacted was the disposal of a number of Petitions,
none of them of any particular interest, reported to
the Chamber by the Committee on Petitions. The
Chamber afterwards resolved itself into a Secret
Committee, when the President gave in to be read the
Resolution communicated by the Chamber of Peers
relative to thi Law of Elections. The Chamber re-
mitted the Resolution to the Bureaus for examination.

The order of the day then called for the discussion
of the Resolution of the Chamber of Peers for the
abolition of the Droit d'Auboine, the Committee on
which had reported by a majority for its abolition
M. DUVERGIER de HAURANNE opened the debate by
a speech in the negative. and was followed on the
same side by M. KERN and M.JAQUINOT PAMPE-
LUNE. The Resolution was supported by M. LAINE
de VILLEVEQUE and M. BEUGNOT. The farther dis-
cussion of the question was then adjourned till the
ensuing day.

Srl WI; dicturbances have broken elbt at Nismes. An
article in the Journal ditt ct.t.c, that {or %Ans.,
days a general agitation was observed in the public
niiud, which was attributed to the proposition for
modifying the Law of Elections. On Sunday the
7th of March, a multitude assembled in front of the
Theatre, and menacing vociferations and cries were
heard. The Authorities endeavoured to disperse the
populace, but for a long time their efforts were un-1
availing. The patroles sent to disperse them were
insulted, and assailed with stones. Various rencon-
tres occurred in different quarters of the city, hut,
happily no person ssas seriously wounded : at length,
on the 9th, Lieutenant-General de Biticne, Com-
mandant of the Military Division in which Nismes
is situated, arrived with 500 troops, and tranquillity
is said to have been since entirely re-established.

The produce of the Customs of France, which was
estimated for last year at 80 millions of francs, ap-
pears, by a Return of the Minister of Finance, to
have exceeded 90 millions.

A private letter from Rome states that four indi.
viduals have left there to proceed via Ostend. to St.
Helena, namely, Doctor VITIALI, a young Physician
and Priest, native of Corsica ; Professor ANTOMAR-
CHI, Surgeon of the University of Pisa ; Abbe BONA-
VISTA, Priest, aged 65, native of Corsica, attached
to the Princess BORGIIESE, and appointed Apostolic
Missionary from the Congregation de Propaganda
Fide to the Catholic Colony of St. Ilelena ; and a
Cook destined for the domestic service of BONAPARTE.
—All these individuals have, it is said, been furnished
with passports from the English Minister. They have
come under an obligation not to quit the Island oft
St. Helena while BONAPARTE is i:1 life, unless thel
English Government shall judge it proper to remove
them. The sending of a Priest to St. Helena is said
to be particularly owAlg to Cardinal FEscrr, who ad-
dressed himself on the subject, with the recommen-
dation of the 110 LY FATHER, to Earl Minium?.

A ship arrived at Leghorn, in twenty-eight days.
from Alexandria, in Egypt, has brought intelligence
that IBRAHIM l'acitA, the younger son of the VICE-
ROY of Ecru, had returned to Cairo, and had been
received there with all the honours due to the con-
queror of the Wachabites; so that all that has been
said as to the violent death of this Chieftain,
may be regarded as wholly void of foundation.—
The Viceroy of Egypt appears determined to estab-
lish a rigorous system of quarantine according to the
principles adopted in Europe. He has already made
a Lazaretto to be built It Alexandria. The Viceroy
has also begun to construct a Grand Canal, to con-
duct the waters of the Nile to Alexandria.
