SOU l'H AMERICA.

The following letter, with which we have been fa-
voured from a Gentleman in Barbadoes, commu-
nicates a variety ut new and interesting particulars,
respecting the recent Expedition of the Republican
Admiral 13nowra to the Coasts of the Pacific, his sub-
sequent arrival in the West-Indi,..s, and the seizure
and condemnation of his principal vessel there, as
lawful prize to the Britidi Ha, :

" BARBAI3OF4, FEB. 1, 1817.
" The well known Bnows, Admiral to !Le Buenos
Ayres Government, was some time ago fitted out
with a small squadron, to cruize along the western
coast of South America, nearly the whole of which
still remains faithful to the mother country. Bttows,
after a variety of adventure%, made his appearance at
Barbadoes with ono ship, the Hercules, under Por-
tuguese colours—he endeavoured to enter at the Cus-
tom-house, in order that he might sell his cargo and
get a clearance, but the Custom-honse would have
nothing to do with him. The BRAZEN sloop of war
being at this time at Barbadoes, and about to proceed
to the Commacder in Chief, at Antigua, Bnows re.
quested Lave of 11,e Captain Ortramo), to proceed
to that poll. under. his convoy.
‘, This the Captain readily ganted ; but learning
afterwards some suspicious c4.;timst inees of BROWN,
he thhuAht proper, in the course of the voyage, to
hold the su.stl as detained, 'and took her in as such
CO Antigua, where she was tried and ultimately con.'
donned as lawful priz. She is supposed to be worth
nearly one hundr‘d thousand pounds. An appeal
has been entered by BROWN.
6, From BIWWN'S account of his voyage, it appears
that after leaving Buenos Ayres he doubled Cape
Horn, and made a great number of captures, to the
amount of about a million and a half of money. He
made descents both at Lima and Guayaquil. At
the former place he was made prisoner with a few of
his men, and would have been immediately put to
death, but for the fortunate circumstance of having
a few days before captured a ship with the Governor
of Lima on board, in consequence of which a treaty
of exchange was entered into, by which Bnows's
second in command agreed to give up the Governor,
with several prizes, and a considerable sum in money,
as ransom for Bitows.

a In the attack oa Guayaquil he lost one of his
squadron, a brig of 16 guns, which grounded, and
could not be got od. After extending his cruise as
far north as Bunaventura, he shaped his course for
Magellan's Straits, in passing through which he lost
another of his ships. He had now r.nly two ships
left, the Hercules and Consequencia ; the latter,
which was by far the most valuable of the two, parted
company after they had got clear of the Straits, and
has not since been heard of. BROWN now procreded
onwards to Buenos Ayres, till he spoke a vessel which
informed him that a military force had gone from
Rio Janeiro against Buenos Ayres, when he deter-
mined to steer for another por►, to avoid being cap-
tor:A by the Portuguese squadron. He aecordin3ly
put into Pernambuco, but not being able to gain any
intelligence there respecting the Portuguese arma-
ment, he left it and came to 13arbadoes, where he
arrived about the 2Zith of last September.
" Besides this account of BROWN'S own, several
'other particulars have come to our knowledge here,
to which I think every credit may be attached.—
After he had received Iris orders to sail from Buenos
Ayres, the ruling party sent dtrwn a reclu!st that he
would delay his departure for a week ; but instead of
complying with it, he sailed much r trlier than he
originally intended, being probably impressed with
the idea that if he stopped, the expedition might be
ultimately countermanded. His wile and family,
who were living at Buenos Ayres, be had previously
taken the precaution to send over into the Portuguese
territories. Yuu will recollect that the Government
of Buenos Ayres afterwards sent out a squadron into
the Pacific Gaut for the express purpose of bringing
Buowtt in, and there seems little doubt that it was in
consequence of his being apprised of this that he
passed through the dangerous navigation of Magel-,
lan's Straits in order to avoid them on his way back.

is a fact also, that alter accomplishing that
arduous task, and when he concluded that there was
nu further occasion for keeping up his warlike cha•
racier, he threw his guns into the hold, and ac-
quainted the crew, that they were no longer to con-
sider themselves iu a man of war, but a merchant-

man, and net to addreu him as Admiral, but at
Captain BnowN.

" From all these eircnmstancen, there arrays
every probability that litmus having amasst d (Tn.
sidirable wealth aind,:r the Republican Gheeri:mtnt,
htit being, from its jrrlotrsy and unalablatt•ss, dis-
trustfail of his ultimate security, had, preva.ta; to his
setti g sail from Buenos Ayres, meditated and ar-
ranged the plan of not rem:tint!: tn it.
" The Ilercul-s, though rot btii:t fora man of
war, mounted -16 p,las, and had a con-1•l.-meat of 1:41)
oleo. Her Master (Mr. CHITTY) WAS a lel itiee of
Bang's, and had, I believe, Men a Mils!ticona:t

to be an intelligent, shrewd, prudent man, of gentle.
manly manners, and likely to make friends %Owes', r I
he goes. He was much respected, and very popular
among his officers and crew.

" I believe the ground on which the Hercules has
been condemned is a breach of the Navigation'Laas.
She had no register or clearance from any port. I
scarcely think she could he condemned in conse.
(pence of being an insurgent vessel, since onr Arrzho.
rides here have constantly refused to interfere in the
least between the contending parties.
From the best. information I can obtain tire
Royalist Party appear to have gained a considerable
ascendancy. Although the Insurgents had some
months since greatly augmented their strength by
recruits from St. Domingo and the Virgin Islands,
they appear to have been totally defeated under Bo-
LIVAR—.IInr do we hear of their having made a stand
any where in the North for a long time.
" The younwr MINA, son to the gallant Spaniard
of that name, is now at Port au Prince with Per•tos,
who seems extremely friendly to the cause of the
Patriots, allowing them to procure whatever supplies
they want in his dominions, and even his own people
nr v.rlonteer in their service. Many English as well
AS French Of have gone over to serve in the
Patriot Army."

grounds to believe the same, or even that the Bill will

Bow.s.rnat.T.—Yesterday Ause Read was charged
on suspicion of attempting to poison her father and
mother, who reside in Matmouthatteet, and carry
on the business of manufacturing ink. It appeared
that Mr. and Mrs. Read were going to have some
tea, which was made in the usual way, and in the
teapot which they constantly used. On the tea being
poured out into tl.e cups, they said it appeared to be
white, and that it had a peculiar and disagreeable
smell. Mr Read did not drink any df it, but Mrs.
Read did, and she complained afterwardi of a paid
and a heat at her stomach. They suspected that
,something imptoper had been-put into the teapot :
what remained of it was put into a bottle and taken
to Mr. Buggy's, an apothecary in the neighbourhood,
who said there was arsenic in the tea ; and learning
slot Mrs. Read had drank some, advised her to take
a dose of salts. The tea was also taken to the sloop
of Mr. Jarvis, ancOotr apothecary is that nrigisionn-
hond, where it was also sAid to c::ntam arse' ic.—
Mrs. Read acknowledged yesterday that she 1:.1,!
taken the dose of salts, as she had been desired, aad
that she loam! no bad effects from the tea since the

sensation which she had at expel ienced on bet
stomach. Mr. Read would nut swear o.:sitively that
be had not put m'lk into tl.e tea to make it look white.
•The ground of suspicion against the prisraer was,
that•slue does not live with them, and had bien in the
room by herself where the tca•l:ot was kept about an
hour before the tea was made. Sir N. CONANT ob-
served, that this was a serious charge of a father and
mother (mother•in•law) against their daughter ; and
it should therefore be seriously investigated. He
therefore dirtcted an ofliva to take the tea to Mr.
Duagy'i and Mr. Jarvis's shops, where Mrs. Read
Lad originally taken it, which he accordingly did;
but neither of them could give a positive answer,
cept it was analyzed, which they were not prepared
to do. The constable, therefore, took it to Mr. Ac-
cusn's, in Old Costpton.street, who undertook to ana.
'pelt. but said the process would not be complete
•
till this evening.
