Latest from the La Plata q the Pacific
The brig Corporal Trim arrived here
last evening from Buenos syres, whence
she sailed on the 18th February To
the polite attention Of Thomas G. Rey-
burn, Esq. who came passenger IN this
vessel, the American is indebted for a
regular file Of Buenos Ayres papers to
the 18th February inclusive. BY the
report under the marine head, it will be
seen that all theAmerican vessels in the
port had left there previous to the saiF-
ing of the Corporal Trim, from which
we infer that notice of the blockadeof
the port had been transmitted from the
admiral of the Brazilian blockadlng
squadron. The only vessel in port was
the Hamburg ship Urrania.

NAVAL ACTION The hostile fleets
have already had an engagement, the
official account Of which we find in the

ford once stood high--so did your old
and faithful servant, Gov. Edwards. :
They were at issue on points of deep

ford had not probably acted from im-

him in that high Office, for which, by
his splendid talents, he is SO eminently

Colds, Coughs, Consumptons, Splitting of Blood
Asthmas, and all Disorders of the Breast and
Lungs.
There is perhaps no medical observation better
established, none more generally confirmed by the
experience of the best physicians, of all ages and
countries, and none of more importance TO the
human family, than the, fact, that many of the
most difficult and incurable consumptions Orig-
nate in neglected colds. In a climate so variable
as ours, where the changes of the weather are
frequently sudden and unexpected, it requires
more care and attention to guard against this dan.
gerous enemy of life, than most people imagine,
or are able and willing to bestow. The bills of
mortality exhibit the melancholy fact, that the
proportion of deaths by this disease may he con.
sidered as about five to one. Inssnlueh. then, as
this fatal disease bids defiance to the skill of the
most learned physicians, it is qualification to the
Proprietor that he is enabled to offer, to those af
Acted with it, goodly prospect of relief in that
