From The Richmond ENQUIRER.

DIPLOMACY Buenos Ayres-France.
The state papers recently brough, to ligh,
by the present government of Buenos Ayres,
from the archives o5 lis late Congress, exhi-
bill very curious scene. We shall give all
these papers, as they are published in the
Baltimore Federal Gazette meantime, con.
tent ourselves with very hasty sketch OF
them.
Precisely twelve months ago, the French
minister OF Foreign Affairs proposed 10 Don
Gomez, Envoy of Buenos Ayres at Paris, to
oveEturn the constitution ofthe republic, and
place The Duke of Lucca, ancient neir TO the
kingdom of Etruria, on the throne. On the
part OF France, he promised to "rsqure
from Spain the cessation of the war and the
acknowledgment of the independence OF
those provinces" He stated tfatlhe French
king would either lend assistance Of any
Kind, " or persuade Spain to desist from the
VAR" that the prince might contract a
Observation-Disclosures with one of Inc prin-
cesses OF Brazil on The express condition
that that government shouli evecuate the
Banda Oriental. He recommends this no.
table scheme, by various appropriate argu-
ments such as, the adaptation of a Con
s!ituional Monarchy TO the oircum stances OF
5. America the good qualities ofthe prince
lis exciting no jealousy among the pripci.
pal courts, &c.-Gomez pleads off has no
powers, but promises to lay the matter be-
lore his government. The French minister
promises in the mean time TO pave the way
with those cabinets that would interpose -
Gomez hopes that France would prevail on
bis Catholic Majesty. to give the Cadiz e.
petition new direction. The minister pro-
misses every thing, but las yet seems to have
done nothing.

Est inst. gives distressing account OF the
death of Philemon, William and Cyrus, 8
only children of ME- 2aphna and Mrs. Lois
Stone, of Kinsman, III thai county who were
drowned by the hand Of their mothert The
circumstances are peculiar, and were COM
municsted for publication by Clergyman.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stone possessed amiable dis
positions, sustained unblemished characters,
and had lived together in the utmost harmo-
Dy. During late revival of religion, Mrs.
Stone was awakened, and supposed she had
experienced change of heart. Soon after,
however. she settled down in state Of
gloo;a and melancholy, and declared that
she bad committed the objectionable. sin.--
Under this impression, and believing, thai,
il taken off at their present tender age, the
children would be happy and believing,
also, that, having committed the unpardona-
bic sin, no injury would follow TO her her
self, While her husband was gone connecting,
on Sunday, the i4th OF May, she drowned
the little ianocents, in spring about feet
deep. Verdict of the Coroner's Iaquest,
was, dsowHsd by the mother, in f. Of insa-
