South American Provinces.
In answer to statements made by Mr. Canning
at the conference, held in October 1928, (Which are
well known the Prince de Polignsc, il behalf Of
France, declared
That his Government believed it to be utterly
hopeless to reduce Spanish America to the state o.
It's former relation TO Spain.
That France disclaimed on her part, any nten
on or desire to avail herself of the present state oil
the colonies or Of the present situation Of France
towards Spain, to appropriate to herself any part q

Tor herself any exclusive advantages.

SUCCESS OF THE COI,OMRIANS

We learn of Capt. Osborn, Of the sloop David,
days from Havana, that action took place off the
bar OF Matanzas on the Sd or 4th inst, between q
COLOMBIAN squadron oil corveltes and a brig, and
the Spanish sIoop Of War Ceres, of % guns having
a fleet Ct merchant vessels all from Havana under
convoy The action lasted an hour, and resulted in
the capture Of the Ceres three heavy ships, and 8
drogels, and the victors Immediately bore away with
their prizes. TWAS supposed they would stop al
Key West.
The Ceres lost between 80 and 40 in killed and
wounded. The captain was killed at the FIRST broad
side A number Of the crew jumped overheard /;
those who succeeded in reaching the shore, were
sent to the Moro.
An embargo was Immediately laid at Havana,
which lasted till the 9th, when an expedition consis
ting OF trigate, sloop Of war brig and schoon.
er sailed 10 pursuit OF the Colombians which by this
time it was believed had got out OF their reach
The vessels captured part Of feet Of 3 sail
which left Havana the 3dinst. for Spain Several
OF them were large ships and most of them were
armed.
The successful Colombian vessels are supposed
to be the Bolivar, and Boyaca corvettes, and brig
formerly the British gun brig Mosquito.

From the .Nsw York Gazette of aOriI 90.

DreadtM ,Ners.--By the ship President the edi
tors OF the Gazette have received Charleston papers
OF "Wednesday last. The following was received
there by the schr. Planter, and is copied from q
barbadoes paper of the 18th ult.
"Accounts from Para, received at Bridgetown on
the 18th u. by the brig Mary Ellen, state that dis
tuIbance which threatened the lives of all the Euro
peans had lately occurred there. 1t appears that the
militia Of the place who had been for some time with
out pay had proceeded to plumber the public stores
when Captain Grenfel commander OF brig of war
IN the Imperial service, secretly landed large body
Of men, attacked the militia, killed and wounded
many, and secured the remainder about 26U. These
he Carried on board his brig and confined them IN
der the hatch. The dreadful consequence OF this
act was, that bu, four were found alive next morning
The natives of the country became exasperated at
this horrible massacre, and vowed to sacrifice the
European inhabitants to their revenge--in conse
quence OF which the latter, after applying to the
Portuguese government for protection, but withou,
success Immediately embarked in the brig Mary
Ellen, and arrived at Bridgetown.--The whole mum.

stated that H. b. NJ. ships Eden aud Scout, were

! The Prince de Pognac added:
THAT. in the interest of humanity, and espe-
cially in that of the Spanish colonies, It would be
worthy of the European Governments TO concert
together The of calming, in those distant and
scarcely civilized regions, passions blinded ny par
lty spirit, and endeavor to bring back 10 primer
pie Of union in government, whether monarchIa or
1aristocratcal. people among whom absurd and dam
lgerous theories were keeping up agitation and
disunion."
Mr.. Canning, without entering into discussion
upon these abstract principles contented himself
with saying,
g That however desirable the establishment Of a
monarchal form Of government IN any OF those
provinces might be, on the one hand, or whatever
might be the difficulties in the way OF it. on the
other hand, his Government could not take upon
itself TO put ii forward condition OF their recog
niton.'
