Danish brig, were among those wrecked-no
lives lost. A Brazilian schr. was upset, and
seven OF her crew drowned. The ship Eagle.
Of Boston, lost her bowsprit; brig Numa, OF
Alexandria, also lost her bowsprit; Midas, OF
Baltimore, considerably damaged in the hull
The brig Pioneer, of Salem, was not injured
Her crew had been released from the Brazilian
frigate which captured her, and were on board
the q. S. sloop ofwar Boston. 1t was expect
ed the Pioneer would soon be released.
The United States sloop of war Boston, Cap
tain Hoffman, arrived at Montevideo, from Rio,
all well, two days before the A. sailed.
Under the date Of Buenos Ayres, Sept It,,
We find the following items Of intelligence, such
as they are:
1t appears that plot OF General Frotos Ri
vera, to betray his country to the Emperor OF
BRAZIL has been discovered. This second Ar
mold, we are sorry to say, has effected his es-
cape.
We regret TO announce that the barbarians
have lately committed, with impuniy, several
depredations near Kakel. Nay, il is said that
they have killed 100 men of that garrison,
wounded the commander, and carried off up
wards Of &C, 900 head Of cattle.
tits confidently asserted that Admira! Brown
has been put on board of the frigate Buenos
Ayres, by the private armed boat Son of May,
off Bahia Blanca.
We have seen private letter from Monte
video, which states that the Brazilian frigate
Piranga has been entirely dismasted in gale,
and that one hundred men were killed by the
accident.
Arrived yesterday evening, H. B. NJ. frigate
Ranger, Lord Thyme, from Montevideo,
whence she sailed on Wednesday. Passengers,
Lord Ponsonby, Lady, Secretary Mr.. ScotD
and suite.
The people of 3uenos Ayres appear to have
little hopes of the success Of Lord Ponsonby's
mediation. lntimaton had been received from
Rio OF positive refusal on the part Of the EN-
peror 10 listen to any other terms Of peace than
that OF a total REIMBURSEMENT to him by Buenos
Ayres, OF the Eastern Province; than to part
with which he has declared he would sooner
lose his crown.
BY decree dated oath Augustine govern
ment declared that no private bank can be esta-
blisheG in the Republic without special leave
from Congress: and that should any applica
ton be made for permission, II would, under
present circumstances use It's influence 10 pre-
vent its being granted.
The British Packet Of August goth says
very sharp impressment took place this week,
Tor the purpose Of reinforcing'the army in the
Banda Oriental 1t is said the number requir-
ed to be collected in eight days was 1000. A
| considerable havoc has already been made a
mong the lecheros, gauchos, and we hope, 9th
ers OF a worse character, whose only ostensibe
means are such as crime and dishonesty can af-
ford. We are assured, on respectable su,hori-
ty, that for the space Of so leagues around the
| city, peon is scarcely to be seen: and numerous
Estancias and Chacras are left entirely destitute
Of effective servants.
The constituent Congress Of Chill was in
stalled on the All, of July. On the 9th it was
decreed that the Constitution of the Republic
should be formed agreeably 10 the federal sys-
tenn OF Government. On the 9TH, The Director
transmitted message to Congress, requesting
TO be relieved from the charge Of the Executive,
and in consequence Of which, Admiral Blanco
was elected President, and Don Augustin Eizo-
guirre Vice President pro tempore.
