CENTRAL AFRICA.

1t may be recollected that the English
newspapers, some time since, asserted
that the recent travellers in the interior
of this continent had met with a nation
or tribe heretofore entirely unknown,
superior in appearance to any other At
rican race yet discovered, and consider
ably advanced in civilization. This I'M
looked for statement was received with
ia degree Of Incredibly; but, if the We
racity of the travellers is unquestioned,
as they have doubtless a right to claim,
il seems to be well established. The
London Literary Gazette, journal OF
great responsibility. and having access
10 the best sources of information, re-
asserts, on the authority of the personal
statements of the travellers, all Of the
main facts heretofore set forth on the
subject. On their journey, (from Bor-
ncu TO Sockatoo, in the latitude of the
Blight of Benin Dir. Ousley and Capt
Clapperton met with various singular oc-
currences, "and became acquainted with
nation whose manners, power, and
civilization were hitherto totally I'M
known TO Europeans. They passed
through immense swamps--through
meadows Of grass eight or ten feet high
crossing tracts Of the lion and hippop-
otamus-and passing by bordes Of rob-
bers-until they arrived among people
who seem 10 unite the Ethiopian with

MORTON OF WATER-wHEELs, tested by

lent amongst practical operators, that
water-wbeels move faster by night than
by day, and various theories have been
suggested to account for the fact. The
following letter from professor CIeave-
land, published in the last number Of
Silliman's Journal, proves that the fac,
does not exist.

OFEICLAL DESPAT,CR.

Victory of Sarandi.---It is no longer
possible for the despot of Brazil TO cal
culate upon the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of his
empire, by the enslavement of this prov
ince--The Orientals have just given 10
the world an indubitable testimony of
the high value at which they estimate
liberty. Two thousand soldiers, select
ed from the Brazilian cavalry, COM
;nanded by Col. Denies Manuel, were
completely routed yesterday, on the
coast Of Sarandi, by an equal force,
which had the honor of commanding.
That division, so proud OF lis chief,
were, doubtless, unaware Of the bravery
of the army which they braved. To
meet and 10 conquer was the act OF a
moment. The charge was the only
manGuvre that took place on both sides /;
and it was one of the most obstinate that
ever took place. The enemy commence
ed theirs by heavy discharge of fire.
arms, which was despised by our brave
troops, who with sabre in hand, and
carblne on the shoulder, according to
my orders, met, encountered and sword
ed the foe, and after completely dis
persing them, pursued them two leagues,
and obtained complete and prompt
victory.
Such was The result Of the action,
that four hundred men lay dead upon
the field of battle, 410 were made pris-
oners together With So officers, without
including the wounded, whom We are
still collecting on the field, and in the
dispersed who are to be met with in all
quarters. Over 1000 stand of arms 10
pieces of artillery, great quantity of
ammGnitious of war, and all their horses
fell into our hands. Our loss consisted
in one officer killed, Thirteen Of the
same rank wounded, thirty soldiers de.
ceased, andseventy with severe wounds.
The commanders, officers and troops are
meritedly entitled TO the fame of brave
men. The valiant and worthy Briga-
der General, after most Iesolute and
determined contest throughout the en-
tire action, attacked flying squadron,
which escaped The blades of our swords.
When the, earliest opportunity presents
itself, shall give you detailed ac-
count of this memorable encounter, for
at present, time will not allow me to en-
ter into circumstantial account thereof.
For all further information ! refer you
TO the Sergeant Major, bearer Of these
dispatches, who will satisfy you as to
all minute matters relating TO this signal
victory.

sincere wish ofyour Excellency's friend

SLIDER Mine ne0r Coquimbo.-A large
quantity of silver ore was lately found
about IA leagues from Coquimbo in
Chill on The surface of the earth, by a
muleieer, who made known his good
fortune at Coquimbo, and was offered
thirty thousand dollars for what he had
discovered. This discovery led others
TO the spot, and four OF five rich mines
have been discovered, Traced from the
silver found on the surface which
promise to be almost inexhaustible.-
One of the mines was discovered by Mr..
Daniel w. Frost, an American mer-
chant, residing at Coquimbo and it was
supposed he would obtain grant TO
work it, as the other discoveries had
done.

From Buenos .Ayres.-By the ship
Seine, from Monte Video, we have re-
ceived the Buenos Ayres papers TO the
9th ultimo, from which we have obtained
the following news.
The Secretary of Foreign Relations of
the Republic OF the United Provinces of
RIO de la Plata has directed a commune
cation to the Secretary of State of Brazil,
under date of 18th November, stating that
The Republic could not, without dishon-
our and imprudence, abandon to them
selves the inhabitants Of the Banda ORR
entail people armed, vail ,Dt, and
willing to submit TO the last extremities
in defence of their rights y but disclain
ing any departure from that spirit Of
moderation and justice which has always
formed The basis of The politics Of the re-
public.
These papers contain the important
intelligence of complete victory gain
ed by the Independents of the Banda
Oriental, over the Brazilian troops, of
which the particulars will be found in
the despatch below. The consequences
of this action have been The entire eyac-
uation of the eastern province, by the
Brazilian forces, and the official reunion
Of that country with the republic of
Buenos Ayres-The Brazilian Consul
and Agent, in consequence Of insults Of
fered 10 his government during the re-
joiciug at Buenos Ayres, on the account
of the success of the Patriots, had de-
manded and received his passports, and

commemorate the proper place. Mr.
Finn appeared as Richard, and was sa'
Iuted with such deafening exclamation'
as " Of, off-No Finn-Kean, Kean-
of with Bob Logic Finish that fel-
low"
10 answer to the numerous calls for
"Kean," the audience had been inform
ed that he was not in the house. The
first act was gone through with and the
second commenced, when Mr.. Finn,
then on the stage, was called aside and
spoken TO from the boxes, aud soon af-
Ter made his exit; the curtain then
dropped and the performances were sus-
pended. At intervals, during the scenes
we have family described, several of our
most influential and respectable citizens
arose in their places, and requested the
audience 10 be silent while they address
ed the house but the shout was, . On
the stage" The speakers declining to
take the stage, were not able 10 be
heard
In the mean time the people, TO the
number of al least 5000, collected in
Frahklin-st. Federal-st. aud Board-alley
surrounding the theatre on all sides,
and making continual efforts to break in
the doors now wrenching shutters and
doors from their hinges--now smash
ing lamps and windows, and anon hnrl-
ing stones and biliets of wood and mis-
siles of every kind-the peace officers
and others inside resisted with despera-
tion-but nothing conld withstand the
impetuosity of the multitude, and, bear
ing down all before them, they gave
three tremendous cheers, and poured in
to the house amidst cries Ct ''-murder,
shame. shame, down with Kean, away
with the managers, demolish the thea
ire, strip the place from top TO bottom,"
sc. sc.
Such scene as now ensued beggars
all description. Some of the audience
sprang from the gallery into the boxes,
from the boxes into the pit, and from
the pit upon the stage-others jumped
from the windows into the street, or
made good their retreat through the
doors behind the scenery-whlie the
mob continued TO press onward, occupy
ing every vacant spot, tearing up the
seats and the benches, and hurting them
in every direction. demoishing the
lamps, chandeliers, &c.--cheering and
shouting at intervals, =" Down with the
Keanites-over with the Newly ork-
ers--Drive off the managers-Out with
that feliow-H uzza--send for Kean--
No, no, sc. Some little opposition was
now made 10 the mob, but without much
effect. The riot act was read, but no
one needed it--and the alarm Of fire
was cried, in order to draw the depre-
dators fron their work of destruction
but in vain---they maintained their
ground without much interruption, and
if they were once or twice driven from
their positions, they returned again TO
the contest with greater fury. Al length
the populace having accomplished their
object, retired peaceably TO their homes,
about l2 O'Clock, and left the building
in the possession OF the friends OF kean
and the managers, who Immediately
boarded up the doors and windows. We
have not heard that any lives we're lost,
and are unable to state the actual dam
age done.
1t is perhaps unnecessary TO add that
not female was present.
