THE ENGLISH CLIMATE.

An American lady writes thus from Lii
verpool, June ls, 18i8.-"The weather
has Leeu very fne-for 26 days, there was
not drop of rain, nor even cloud to be
seen. The Oldest people say they never
knew such weather before.
Con our passage out we had bad wealth.
er all the time the sun rose clear but once
and did not set clear the whole passage"
This exhibits rare and remarkable fact
in the climate of England, and a difference
not lessremarkab'e between the weather at
the same period, as il was while the lady
was making her stormy passage from Ameri-
ca to England, that the unclouded days OF
the latter country continued in uninterrupt-
cd succession.

From The Washington City Gazette.
The following is very good answer to
those hints and insinustions thrown out in
certain letters said to have been received
from Buenos Ayres, and lately published
in this city, no doubt with view to serve
particular purposes. One would hardly
suppose child could be imposed oil to
give credit to such vile trash. Their ig-
norance and contradictory assertions car
ry conviction on the face of such state
ments; and what they labor to conceal is
the strongest proof of their misrePresenta-
tions. The Maryland Censor Of the 10Th
inst. says
1--WE have seen great number and va
riety of letters, papers, and passengers by
the Manhattan, the last arrival from Buenos
Ayres and we can assure them that the
situation Of general Artigas is very differ
ent from the one stated to be represented
| in private letters, received al Washington.
The Portuguese have not taken Purifca-
ton, his seat of government, as mentioned
nor do they threaten Buenos Ayres-on the
contrary, the government Of Buenos Ayres
was said TO be preparing body of cavalry
to go against Ar,igas-a thing not likely TO
happen if threatened by the Portuguese
Two officers of Artigas had been defeated,
but he had afterwards defeated the Portu-
guese in person. The war against Artigas
is one Of the most unprovoked and unblush-
ing measures of royal aggression, upon bu-
man rights, that ever occurred. and we
should be sorry that any friend of liberty
could notice their success, unaccompanied
with an expression of regret. In this in
stance it may not be trrelGvent 10 remem-
Der, that the Portuguese consul general is
interested to the amount Of several hundred
thousand dollars-suits pending in over.
throwing Artigas' government But sup:
posing Purihcation, the seat Of Artigas' GO
yemment, had been taken-ihe seat of 90.
vernment and the government itself, are
two things /; as the editors of The INTEL gen.
Ger had some occasion to know not many
years since. Ifthe voice of the people is
the voice of COZ and deserves to be re-
spected, then does the power Of Artigas."
