Letters have been received from Buenos Ayres of
the 30th of December, and from Chili of the 6th of
December, by the Porcupine, arrived in the Downs.
Nothing worth relating had occurred at Buenos Ayres,
where tranquillity was preserved; but from Chili we
learn that a partizan of the name of BENAVIDES, who
had escaped the pursuit of the conquerors of Valdi-
via, had stirred up the Indians of Angol, and made
an irruption into the province of Conception. After
having committed great excesses, he was completely
routed in two simultaneous attacks made on him by
General FRRYRE, the Governor of the Province, on
one side, and by the reinforcements sent from Santi-
ago on the other. The great loss which the Indians
sustained is ascribed, in part, to the circumstance of
BENAVIDES having led them across a river by a
ford, from which they were cut off by the attack of
the Chilian forces, and were obliged to throw them-
selves into the river, at a place that is not fordable.
The Supreme Director was determined to pursue
BENAVIDES and his followers, without giving them
any respite, and to cut up by the root the system of
depredations on the Indian frontier.—The news from
the coast of Peru are, of course, of an older date than
those received direct by the HYPERION; but they con-
firm the latter as far as they go, and state that Ge-
neral SAN MA trrtri expressed the highest satisfaction
with the spirit prevailing amongst the Peruvians, and
the reception he everywhere met with, and which left
him no doubt of success.
Thursday the Anniversary Dinner of the Marine
Society was held at the Old London Tavern, Bishops-
gate-street, the Earl of llostzzt in the Chair. Many
distinguished characters were present, among whom
were Tunmas REID, Esq. Deputy Chairman_of the
Court of Directors of the East India-Company ; Ad-
mirals HARVEY and BLISSEr; Captains SAUNDERS,
BYRON, MANGIN, PROUSR, &c. &c.—After the usual
loyal toasts had been given, the appropriate air of
Rule Britannia was struck up by the band, and im-
mediately a numerous train of young sailors entered
the room in 'procession ; having made their obeisance
• the company, they stood in tront of the Chair, and
gave three hearty cheers, for which a cordial acknow-
ledgement was made, and retired.—The donations
were very liberal—the East India Company One
Hundred Guineas—the Duke of CLAIRNCR Twenty
Guineas. The evening was spent with the utmost
conviviality, and the company did not separate till a
late hoax.
At the Kent Assizes, on Saturday, William Clayton
was indicted for a highway robbery, committed on
a travellinf fishmonger. The Jury brought in a ver-
dict of guilty : Deathr-An action was brought, on
the Civil Side, by Cowan, against Mr. Baker, a
respectable builder, at Chatham, for pulling down
the prosecutor's house, to stop the rapidity of a fire
which threatened the destruction of the whole town.
The houses were of lath and plaster, and adjoined
to a distillery, and the Magistrates all concurred in.
the necessity of pulling down these premises. They
were insured in the Eagle Fire Office, but they had
stated, that the loss did not come within the terms of
their policy. The Jury gave a verdict for the plain-
tiff—Damages, £220; costs, 40s. At the above
Assizes, forty-one prisoners received sentence of death&
the greater part of whom were for house-breaking.
Hyde Park was very gay yesterday, aotwithottutd-
ins the unfavourable weather. '
