LONDON, Sept. Is


The destination ofthe expedition formed
at Cork, under the command of sir David
Baird, remains a secret; but it is supposed,
in consequence of some recent orders, that
the original plan is altered. As the trans
ports are not copper-bottomed, they are not
probably intended for a distant object. The
horse transports viii amount to 500. This
is the only cause that has delayed the sailing
of the expedition. The heavy baggage was
ordered to be embarked last week.
The enbarkation of troops at Ramsgate
has commenced with great activity. The
1st battalion Of the 1st regiment CT guards,
under the command of col. Arson, march
ed from Deal on Thursday into Ranssate.
and immediately went on board esvesssls
lying at the pier to receive them. They
were followed by the Sd battalion of the Isl
guards, under the command ofcol. Cheney.
amounting in all TO about 5000 of the finest
men that ever left the country. At Rams
gate, however, as at Cork, there appears to
be a deficiency of transports.
An express was dispatched to Cork on the
5th, with orders for the expedition to sail
forthwith. Orders have been issued fer the
troops to leave all their baggage on shore,
and such men as are not fit for the most act
i've and immediate service, are to remain at
Fermoy.

Oh the morning of that day vessel had ar
rived from Buenos Ayres with dispatches,
after a passage of 81 DAYS. The letters had
not been delivered when the Champion sail
ed but it was understood, that the Portu-
guese government at the BraZils had sent a
force against Spanish America, and de-
manded the immediate surrender Of Monte
Video and Buenos Ayres. Compliance with
this demand was peremptoriiy refused, and
1900 troops, under the command OF the
respective governors of these places were III
arms to defend themselves against the adj
.vances of the forces from the Brazils. The
accounts of the late events in Europe will Of
course induce the Portuguese to forego any
farther hostile project against the Spanish
colonies.
Other letters from Cadiz confirm the re-
port that it had been found necessary to
conhne Dupont in the castle of thar place,
on account of his insolent department..
