ByENos AYREs, August THE new
viceroy is arrived, and LINERS has resigned
his command, and has retired to Mendoz, a
town 800 leagues up the country. Liniers
had orders from the Supreme Junta to repair
to spain. to answer the charge brought against
him by Gen Elio, Governor of Monte Video
so, alledging the unsettled state of that coun-
try as an excuse. All the Creocs are on the
side Of LINERS, as he disbanded the old re-
gmeUts ofSpain, and placed Natives in their
places, which caused much jealousy araong
the old troops, particularly much jealousy
was excited against Lady Of French ex-
traction, who has in consequence taken her
passage on board an English gun brig, the
Steady, ,for Rio Jansro, carrying with her,
her family and property. The new viceroy
has been invested with most extraordinary
powers those OF life and death are even de
posted in lis hands. The British merchants
applied to know how commerce was to be
conducted in future? His answer was, that
he had been commanded to put stop to all
Contraband trade in the River Plate, and to
put all ciIectual stop to it, both sides of the
river are douoly guarded. Trade, of course,
is at a stand here; new Governor has also
arrived at Monte Vidco, and General Elio
is named commandant Of the troops at Ru
enos Ayres but on account of their dislike
TO him, he remains at Monte Video, and the
new Governor of that place comes in his
stead.
