It was past three o'clock in the afternoon before
the above Bulletin arrived at the Queen's Palace.
During his ..MAJESTY'S former indisposition, the
Ilnlletius were generally shorn to the public by I'2
o'clock. The delay is favourable to Stock-jobbing
spectlations, and is painful to the public feeling.
A Cabinet Council sat immediately after the receipt
of the above Bulletin ; and a similar meeting will
tele place every day until his MAJESTY'S Mites,'
takes a decisive tur►:. Should tl►e recovery of his
MAJESTY take place before the 15th, as his loyal
and alfectionate people most sincerely and devoutly
wish, the happy event will be then notified, and
the Commission will receive the SIGN Martuat for
the further prorogation to the 29th, as originally
intended.

Yesterday, at noon, the Lono MAyon received a
communication from Mr. Ryosit, Secretary of State
for the Home Department, informing his Lordship,
that, in consequence of the continuing indisposition
of his MAJESTY, no new Chief Magistrate of the
City Could be submitted for the Royal Approba.

• New York Papers reached town last night to the
28th of September. They contain no news of
portance. It was some time since stated in a French
Paper, diet a vessel had arrived• at L'Oricnt, from
.New York, with an American Envoy on board.
.The N.:zo York Go.zette, in noticing this statement,
says, " We know of -no Minister appointed tole.
place General ARMSTRONG." The Neto York
gvening Post, in a political article, in allirling to
a suspicion that General ARMSTRONG had bpld out
to Navotr.ow, that the United States would join
him in A war against England, says, '' The people
of America are not so far sunk in degredation; let
LiONAPAQTE be just before he is generous...let him
restore the property he has stolen from us...revoke
kis Decrees unconditionally, and acknowledge that

A severe storm took place on the 12th,pSeptem.

durablo damage along the coast.

Letters received yesterday morning from Guern.
soy, dated 30tk ult. mcntiun it as a very prevalent
report, that MABSENA. had been recalled. From a
Gentleman who has just arrived from thence, we
learn that the authority for this rumour was, the
Captain of a Prussian vessel from Havre de Grace,
who added, that the information had been given by
telegraph. We attach no credit to the story.

We learn that the Board of Trade yesterday :e.
commenced granting Licences to export Colonial
Produce, by such ships as bad previously brought
to England cargoes of grain.

The Hope, which conveyed the intelligence re.
spectingthe appearance of the Yellow Fever, in the
neighbourhood of Gibraltar, was herielf provided
with a clean bill of health.

, A Buenos Ayres Extraordinary tituzette con.
tains the following document, which must excite
much curiosity. The very peculiar circumstances
alluded to must have been something very uncom.

ST a A NOTO np•
OFFICIAL NOTE.
His Majesty's ship Bedford Is arrived at this port with
13 Spaniards, who were taken ont of the Neptune,. cutn- •
ing from Lima, under very peculiar, circumstances, for which
the English Captain must he accountable. In the name of my
Soveretga, I instantly remonstrated with Mat, in the strongest
terms, that he should deliver to me the above-mentioned Spa-
niards, which being complied wish, I instantly placed them at
the disposal of the Spanish Minister.
The conduct of the Captain of the Bedford, with respect
to the said vessel and men, 1 entirely disown, and am abso-
lutely ignorant how he will he able to justify himself with
his Government, under* such delicate circumstances.—
Upon this occasion the detained men shall be sent to that
city, and I beg, in the most serious manner, that your Excel,
teary will overlook the conduct of a mere individual, when
the character of his nation is at stake; and that it may not in
the slightest manner disturb the thirmuny and friendship which
Subsists between the two nations.

I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to your Excel-
lency the sentiments of my esteem and respect, and hate the
honour to be, with the utmost respect,
Your Excellency's most obedient humble servant,
Rio Janeiro, Ist July, 1810. STRANGEORD.
To the Provisional Junta governing in the

Capital of the River Viate.

The same Pe per contains a Journal of the Pro.
ceedings in the City of Mendoza, the capital of
w jurisdiction of the same name, til Chili, from the
13th of June, written by the Deputy of that city.
Et begins with stating, that when Mendoza '• ap.
piaci*, with transports of joy, the installation
of the no, Government of Buenos Ayres, and
was cia the point of nominating a Deputy, that
beteg the riot ef .011 Ite inhabitants, it received an
Extriordioary Cando/them the Governor of Cur.
dove, directing than* obedienec should be payed
to that Junta, being -illegally installed, and for
which reason neither that Cabildo, that of Monte
Vicdeo, nor that of Salts, would acknowledge its
Authority, and to await the orders of the Viceroy
'of Lima. These orders, so contrary to the deter..
mination of the Junta and to tlie wishes of the
people, caused considerable consternation, and had
the effect Of creating three violent parties, encou;
raged by the Govcroor, who had it in his power to.
destroy them."
It then goes on to detail the disputes which co.
sued, and which proceeded nearly to a civil war,
but ended in a compromise, by which it was agreed
tbat the old Government and the new popular au-
thorities, should constitute the Government, until
the capital should decide upon the more permanent
form of the future Government. It seems, that, in
effect, the popular party gained their object, and
that Meudona will follow the example of Buenos
Ay res.

We cannot give Otis very curious piece of intel-
ligence without comment. The Property Tax is
grievous enough, 'without Imprisonment of those
Iwho are in arrcar in their payment of the sums it
imposes. Is possible, patiently to contemplate
the fact, that a man way' be torn from his family
and his business, the .tneatis of supporting them
and him, anti thrust into a prison, fur not pay.
ins ;4F3 of a tax that ought' not to exist, and
Mit has done more to alienate the minds of the
people from an affectionate temper towards the
Government than all the Jacobias on earth could
do ? Why ! this unfortunate man may end
his days, in prison, after dragging them along with
a swolen and aching heart ! And fur what ?—for not
paying three pounds of an oppressive tax I The
FRENCH, EMPEROR is determined, it seems, to try
