A difficulty of serious nature was
likely to arise between Buenos Ayres,
and Brazil, in relation to the Banda ORR

LIMA, JUNE 1.-The whole force OF
the Spaniards is concentrated at Xauxa,
and amounts to 1000 infantry and 1000
cavalry, under the command of Baldez
and Canterac. The accounts of yester-
day state the former to have resumed
his march back to the coast, which had
been left wholly unprotected. The
Iiberating expedition to the intermedi-
ate ports, which sailed ten days since, is
composed of $500 men, under the COM
maud of Gen. San Cruz; $500 more
from Chill are to join them, and both d.
visions will arrive about the same time
at their place Of destination.
Bolivar is to assume the command OF
the united army, Immediately upon his
arrival, which is expected hourly, and
will march to Xauxa with 5000 troops
accustomed to service.
The government is very popular and
uncommonly active. Riva Aguera, the
President, is man of abilities, and the
utmost confidence is reposed in him by
all classes of people. An agent has ar
rived on account of the loan effected in
England, with authority to draw for
three millions of dollars. The rest OF
the amount is expected in Spain.

We were the other day told of an in :
cident, partaking both of the marvel
lous and ludicrous, which happened in
iredell county, on the 29th July. A ne
gro man belonging in Lincoln county,
having been absent from his master
some time, was apprehended by white
man in Iredell, The negroes hands we're
tied with rope, anL'he was otherwise
shackled with heavy iron, weighing
more than 36lbs. and was thus driven
on towards home by the gentleman who
apprehended him, the latter being on
horse back. The negro becoming wea-
ried, tagged good deal Oh which the
man goaded him on rather harshly; this
induced the negro to revolt; he seized
the man by the leg, and piled him off
his horse; scufIie then took place, du-
ring which the man got knife out of
his. pocket, and attemptedto stab the
pegro-but the latter managed, by the
dint of muscular power, to wrest the
knife from the former, andtut the rope
by which he had been previously fasten-
ed. The odds was now feafully against
the white man; the negro tied him, with
the rope he had cut loose from himself,
to tree, mounted the horseand rode off.
1t was sometime before the gentleman
could unfasten himself, and apprize some
of the neighbouring inhabitants of what
had happened, and go in pursuit of the
negro. The tellew was, however, re-
taken, that day or the next, and safely
lodged in Statesville Jail. The gentle
man received no great injury, only some
pretty hard flesh bruises. -.

months.
Gen. Ballasteros, who commanded
the Constitutional army in Grenada. has
turned traitor to the cause, and made a
capitulation, to which his army refused
their concurrence. Gen. RIEGo is at
Malaga, having quickly raised 5000
troops. 1t is impossible to foresee the
result. The French are certainly dis
appointed, but there is no spirit in Spain.
The country is distracted by civil con-
tentions. 1t is said that England has re-
newed an offer TO become the mediator.
Ny own opinion is that peace will soon
follow"

LONDON, AUG. "a.
Lisbon papers to the 10th inst. are re-
ceived. The private letters state that
King John was so unwell that no audien-
ces had been obtained from him for
some time. Many, however, thought
that the Queens party prevented his
Majesty from seeing any of his late ad-
visers and friends. " Things here must
very shortly change, for most power
full and distinguished party is now in act
i've operation against the present Minis
tiers, and it is expected that they will be
speedily overthrow"
The disposition of the Portuguese ar
my continued to cause the utmost unea-
siness amongst the friends of the abso-
lutte King, and during two or three days
previous to the sailing of the packet,
repeated instances had been given of
their state of excitement. They were
clamorous for the re-appeintment Of
their old officers, and refused to obey the
cadets whom the Queens party had pla-
ced over them. They also openly de-
clared that they had been duped, and it
was thought that they were ready to fol-
low any Constitutional leader who might
again head them. Whilst this was the
state of the public feeling in Portugal,
the Government was using" all the pow
er of the kingdom to assist the French a.
gainst Spain. On the 9th of August the
brig ef war Providentia, the schr.
Nymph, and aship transport, sailed from
the Tagus, bound TO the Granddaughter,
loaded, by the present Portuguese Gov
eminent, with artillery, warlike stores,
and ammunition, to assist the French ar
my in the attempt TO reduce Cadiz.
Many of the letters from Lisbon ex-
press ardent prayers of a change, for
the continued banishments and imprison-
ments rendered the situation of all the
inhabitants uncomfortable and precari-
Gus in The extreme.

WATER POWER.

The Providence papers some time since,
announced the invention by President Messer'
of an improvement in fumes for mills, by
which a great addition ofpower was obtained.
1t was explained to us, at the time, on prin-
ciples which we deemed illusory but, from
the confidence of the Presidents friends, we
were willing to believe that the plan might be
a good one, and were in hopes that before this
time we should hear that our Pawtucket friends
had generally introduced it, and that they
would, thereby, have such surplus of water,
as to remove their fears of the effects Of the
contemplated canal, and be induced to come
forward in support of the plan. We would
thank the Providence papers for some farther
information on the subject

At the Session of the Supreme Judicial
Court in this town, the last week, Ephram
Lynnfeld and George Cliff were indicted for
passing counterfeit bank bills. Several indict
ments were found against them, on one of
which they were tried and Lynnfeld was found
guilty and sentenced to five days solitary inn
prlsonment, and three years confinement to
hard labour in the States Prison. We under
stand he has before been tenant of this insti-
tuition, which subjects him, by law, to an addi-
tional punishment of twenty days solitary i'm
prisenment, and seven years confinement to
hard labour. Gift was acquitted, the princ-
pal evidence against him being, that he was
in company with Lynn6eld at the Muster in
Leicester, with many Others, who probably
composed a company confederated together
for the purpose of swindling the public.
Samuel Bathrck, for larceny, in dwelling
house, on two indictments, was sentenced to
three days solitary Imprisonment, and confne-
ment to hard labour, for the term Of one year,
on each indictment.
Henry Mace was indicted for passing a
counterfeit bank bill, at Leicester, on the day
of the Muster, but the evidence to prove his
identity not being satisfactory, he was acqit-
ted.
Noble Lynnfeld and Charles Ripley charg-
ed with stealing pocket-Book, were dis
charged, no bill having been found against
them.
The Court after an arduous and busy
session, adjourned about 8 O'clock on Saturday
evening, having heard arguments on all the
law questions, and delivered their opinions in
majority of them.

TURKS AND GREEKS.
TRIESTE, AUG. 4,

TRIESTE, AUG 4.
Several vessels from the Archipelago
bring news, that the Greek Admiralty is
at present engaged in preparing for the
execution of very bold project, which
may be productive of the greatest ad-
vantage to their cause if it succeeds,
but may also be very fatal to the Greeks.
1t is nothing less than to transfer the
theatre of war to Asia Minor, and to
make themselves masters Of Smyrna.
1t is affirmed, that for the execution of
this project, the Greeks have assemble
flotiIla with body of 10000 troops,
collected from the several islands of the
Archipelago, which have shown the
greatest eagerness in the cause of indie
pendence. We expect, with great i'm
patience, the farther details of the plan,
the execution of which, must now have
commenced.
The Divana has received positive in
formation Of this expedition, and it is for
this reason that it sent Ibrahim PacLa
with some thousand chosen troops to Ma
tolia.
The success of the expedition will
principally depend on the part that the
numerous Greeks of Asia take If they
do not come to assist the landed troops,
the latter may be considered as lost for
we must expect that the Turks will do
their utmost to expel the Greeks from
that important province.
| A report is likewise spread, that the
Captain Pacha has received orders from
Constantinople TO return, with the whole
of his feet. to the coast of Asia Minor,
in order to attack the Greek fleet. The
expedition projected by the Admiralty,
will thus far at least have the advantage
of acting as a powerful diversion to in
duce the Captain Pacha to leave the
Ionia Sea and the coast Of Greece. He
had not yet, however, Quilted the neigh
bourhood of Patras. 1t is not known what
he thought to do on that coast; for there
is no opportunity to strike great blow
there, and his land force is, besides, too
small to attempt it.
