BUENOS AYRES.

Extract of a Letter from a Gentleman at Buenos
Ayres to bit friend in Edinburgh
Buenos AYRES, Jvxx 17, 1820.—Tbla country
possesses every capability fur becoming a rich and
powerful country, had they some one placed at the
helm of affairs possessed of talents, energy, and, above
all, integrity : when such shall 1;e the case, I have no
doubt that the provinces of the Rio Plata will become
the grand outlet for the redundant population of
Great Britain, instead of America and the tape of
(food Hope. As far as nature is concerned. this
country offers every inducement for agriculturists.
Thousands of acres (as yet uuvuuched by the plough,
and capable of yielding abundant returns to the has.
bandman, with very little preparatory labour, except
the formation of fences to keep off cattle) may lee *had
'at little or no expense; LOSSES Emil oxen limy
Is moored In any quantity at a very trifling
expense; the necessaries of life are abundant and
cheap, and within the reach of every one. All that
seems wanting is an industrious and active popula-
tion ; fur, in this country (as with all those where
food is easily procured), the peasantry are extremely in-
dolent. In this respect, however, they have much improv-
ed since the commencement of their intercourse with the
English ; and it is remarked by those who have been sonic
time resident here, that they become every year more in-
dustrious than before, especially in this place. Many of
the defects of the people of this country, and to o hide
they may ascribe many of their ntiafortnewet, is the
profound state of ignorance in which they leave, dur-
ing three centuries, been kept by the policy of Spain zi
for now that they have obtained their independence,
they leave scarcely any one belonging to the country
capable of carrying on the affairs of litivcrument with
sufficient talent anal integrity to benefit their country.
It almost requires all their time and abilities to guard
and provide against the intrigues of their rivals in
power. There is, however, an establishment which
has been formed here within the last year, which pea-
lmist., to he of more service to this country than all that
has hitherto been attempted fo:- the improvement of the
people: I allude to the establishment of schools ou the
l.ancastcrian system, by a countrylsaa of our owe., a
Mr. Thomson, who has been educated for the church
at Edinhurgle—a man no! only of most extensive ac-
quirements, bat of the must amiable pnd conciliatory
manners. He even now speaks highly of the progress
he has already been able to effect in so very laudable
an undertaking, in consequence of leaving obtained the
good-will and co-operation of the principal inhabitants,
the Magistracy, tiovernment, and what is of more con-
sequence than any of the preceding, the Clergy, some
of whom have shown much liberality on the occaairm.,
Ile has the appointment of superintendents of the'
schools, with a pretty good salary ; has had one es-
tablished these last eight months for boys. aLich
already contains Heady 12U scholars, all of whom
show much aptitude and eagerness for education.
All these primary difficulties having been surmount-
ed, it it expected that he sill be able to advance with
accelerated steps in the establishment of others on the
same priwciplyw; In t his and ober pacts of the country.
Ile is now about to establish here a school fur female
children ; and the Magistracy of Monte Video have
engaged to support him in the formation of a school
at that place. In addition to these, there is a society
forming here among the natives and English, for the
promotion of erliteation, from which the best conse-
quences are expected. Such indeed. is the foundation
which has already been made for the improvement of
the rising generation, that the present year may he
hailed as the first in which any real advancement has
been made towards improving the condition of the
people, and will long lee erneenehereol with agreeable
feelings by every one interested in the prosperity of
these countries.

This country is remarkably healthy, and is ne:er

visit almost all countries without slististrtion, such as
measles and small pox, the latter nearly exterminated
