The Spanish Omni Eris, according to advice!
*calved in town yesterday, is now on his voyage to
Buenos Ayres, on board a frigate, with 2500 stand cf
arms, and a quantity of ammunition. He sailed from
Carthagena, with full powers to act to the best of his
judgment, in bringing to subjection the revolutionary
government of Buenos Apes. He refused to take
any troops with him, being cor,fdent that on his ar
rival with the arms ar.d ammunition above stated, he.
would find adherents to the cause of the mother coun.
try sufficient to enaidahim to accomplish the object
of his enterprizt..

THE ARMY.
It will be seen by our Portsmouth letter, that the
fleets have sailed with the very consideragle reinforce.
merits on board from Cork and Portsmouth, for Por-
tugal. Yesterday morning Sir JOSEPH YORKE, with
the fleet under him, sailed from St. Helen's, and with
so fair a wind, that the troops will probably be dis.
embarked at Lisbon on Sunday next.

SIR—A paragraph having appeared in your Paper
of the 17th December, stating that the 16th Regiment
of Portuguese had the honour of the skirmish at the
bridge of Calaris on the 22d November, I deem
incumbent on me as Major of the corps engaged on
the above day, to beg you will insert in your paper
instead of the 16th Regiment the 4th Battalion of
Casadores.
The mistake might have originated by Major
Astsurrnono, of the 16th Regiment, having the com.
wand of the piquets on the 22d November.
I have the honour to be, Sir,

Your most obedient humble servant,
E. K. WILLIAMS,
To the Editor of the STA.. Maier, 4th Cacadores.

The Bishop of ROCHESTER preached yesterday before
the House of Lords, at Westminster Abbey. He
chose his text from the Sd chapter of the Epistle Ge-
neral of James, 17th verse : " But the wisdom that is
from above is, first pure, gentle, and easy to be en-
treated, full of mercy and good fruits, w►thout par-
tiality and oithost hypocrisy." The discourse of the
Learned Prelate was well adapted to the occasion,
and to the times in which it was delivered : rational,
liberal, moral, political, an,d religious ; it was such as
the zealots of all parties would censure, but which the
truly virtuous and patriotic character must approve,
as corresponding with the best feelings of genuiue
loyalty, and sincere and temperate love of ourcountry.
Of the Temporal Peers, we only observed the LORD
CHANCELLOR and Lard WALSINGHAM.—The Speaker

as to excite the most rapturous bursts of applause.—
