SOUTH AMERIC ff.

Extract of a letter dated Buenos Ayres, 2lst of
'November, 1820:—"All the British residents here
feel greatly interested in the affair of the King and
Queen. The opinion of all is (to say the least of it),
that she is an ill-used, persecuted woman. We now
daily look for accounts from Lord Cochrane, and
unless the expedition has gone to the north of Lima,
it is rather astonishing se have not heard before this
.time. An immense mercantile interest is at stake
on his Lordship's success in his attempts upon Peru.
Should he succeed, there will be fortunes made ;
should he not, some fortunes will be lost. We are
all quiet in this place, and we hope to remain so for
a length of time. The last weeks' fighting they had,
seems to have satisfied the most of them. The weather
gets warm; in the course of two weeks more we
shall have it smoking hot. You, I dare say, have no
idea how oppressive the heat in summer is. The
extremes of cold and heat are much greater than
people imagine who have heard so much of the
delightful climate of the River Plate. The spring
and autumn months are certainly delicious."

SHROPSHIRE COLLIERS.—After stating that some of
these refractory persons had returned to work, the
Shrewsbury Ch,onicle of Friday, sa:
Last night we were favoured with the following extract of
a letter A third person Is dead of the wounds received on
Friday ; and report speaks alsd of another from Bresely, whose
death was occasioned by bruises from the furnace cinders which
fell upon him while accidentally passing at tht time of the affray.
A person who witnessed the whole proceedings of that day,
states, that when the soldiers, in the act of taking eight of the
rioters, charged the mob, fired over their heads, and had dle..
period them in some measure, were returning to their for-
mer station near the foot of the cinder hill, the attack from she
colliers commenced; and, such was the first shower of stones,
that it ;rag like an immense number of rooks rising at once front
the ground, and darkening the air for a moment by their flight;.
he suppceed not less than a ton of these ponderous cinders were
thrown at each "
ALARMING FlRE.—Sunday forenoon, between nine
and ten o'clock, an alarming' fire broke out in the
still-house of Sunbury Distillery, Bell's Mills, near
Edinburgh. On the first alarm, a great number of
the Police,
_and the engines from the different In-.
surance Offices, proceeded to-the spot, but the com-
bustible nature of the articles in the still-house ren-
dered every effort to stop the flames unavailing, as
they raged with such fury, that the roof fell in
about an hour after the fire was discovered. By the
exertions of the firemen, the Police, and persons
on the spot, the flames were• prevented from com-
municating with the other extensive premises, other:
wise the loss would have been very great. A very
melancholy accident occurred during the fire to
six persons who had got on a wooden bridge on the
outside, which communicated from the still-house to
another part of the distillery. It having been found
necessary to cut the bridge in two, to prevent the fire
from reaching to the opposite side, these persons had
gone too near the end, when the bridge gave way,
and precipitated them from a height of three stories
among stones and rubbish. Four of thein were se:
verel.y hurt, three of whose names are M,Calle An-
derson, and Muir; the former, thought to be in a
dangerous state, was, along with another, sent to the
Infirmary. One person hung by the leg to a pro-
jecting piece of timber, and another to an upright
beam ; they were both safely relieved from their
perilous situation. Major LINDSAY, and a. detaih=
meat of the 7th Fusileers, attended ; Lieutenant
YOUNG, and a party of the Police, were alsolhere ;
and Mr. Sheriff DurF, always active and on duty,
was on the snot the whole time. The premises be-
long to Messrs. J. limo and Sons, and are fully in- •
sured in the Sun Fire Office.
