 HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
 Beauchamp, tho assassin of Col. Sharp, has expiated his crimes.
 " The sentence of the law was executed upon him at the fork of the Lexington and Woodford roads, in the edge of Frankfort, at half past o'clock yesterday.
 An idea had gone abroad, that he would address the people, at tho gallows: but he made no attempt of tho kind he was evi- dently too feeble, probably rendered so by his attempts to commit suicide, by taking laudanum and by stabbing himself.
 Soon after arriving at the place of exe- cution, he observed that he wished to die ; and requested the music which belonged to two independent companies, which had been called out to preserve order, should play " Bonaparte's Retreat from Moscow" " which having heard, he desired the officers to perform the execution, and took his death.
 Deatk of Mrs. Beanek0mp.-During the trial of Beauchamp, his wife was brought to this town charged with being accessary to his crime and committed to prison with him. She was examined, and acquitted ; but, at her own solicitation, and his, was

By the last mail from Peru, which
arrived about three days ago, we have
received intelligence that General
Charles Alvear, and Doct. J. nj. d. We
lez, the two commissioners, who, on
the first dawning of rupture between
this Government and Brazil, were sent
of 10 confer with Bolivar, and solicit
the cooperation of the libera;ing army
of Colombia in the event of war-had
arrived on the 7th Oct. at Potosi. and
had met with the most cordial and fiat
tering reception from the Liberator,
and assurances of his disposition to EN-
GAGE IN THE CAUSE. "The Ar
gentine people may be assured" says
he in his speech TO the Commissioners,
" that our hearts will never be separat-
ed from their future fortunes" And
bis letter in reply TO that of our Execu-
tive by the Commissioners, contains sim
liar friendly professions. In aIlusion to
the Brazilian Emperor, while he adj
dresses the Commissioners, he remarks
&c Indeed. we have reason that an
American Prince recently independent
of Europe, who is found involved in our
noble instruction, and who has reared
his throne, not upon weak foundation,
but on the indestructible sovereignty of
the people and the sovereignty Of the
laws: this Prince, who should appear
destined to be the friend of neighboring
Republics, as he who still occupies a
Province and strong hold which do not
belong TO him, and who domineers over
one of our most worthy nations. On
the other hand, his troops have just in
vaded our Province of Chiquitos to des-
olate it and insult us with barbarous
menaces-and when the terror of our
arms has put them to flight, then they
carry off our property and our citizens !
Yet these celebrated vioIators of the
rights of people have remained unpun-
ished, our citizens Inundated, and our
glory offended; but we are as thankful
for the events which have served TO add
new ties to the chains which draw US
together, in order sometimes TO reclaim
those rights, as at others we have ac-
CURED them.
