disposed 10 blockade, TO humbug and try TO create
and foment civil discussions. Ishould really be glad
TO see Rosass party drive them all out of this Pro-
vince and take some OF their vessels Perhaps then
the French government would take more effective
measures, and send out force sufficient to do what
they wish 10. In the beginning of this question,
when Rosas was beset on all sides from without and
there was great deal of disaffection in Buenos
Ayres, a small French force could probably have
put him down altogether but as he has since been
SO fortunate and put down Santa Cruz in Bolivia

that to put him down now will give them some rou-
Bile, and will require force of at least 10 or 10000

the blockade will last Tor some time vet. Should a
force come out Rosas will likely abandon the city
to them, and retire with his forces to the country
and there hold out as long he could; but in that
case, suppose the blockade of the city would be
taken off,
Lavalle is still On Martin Garcia with about 1900
men, mostly emigrants from Buenos Ayres, and
seems yet to be preparing TO make an attempt on
Entire Rios or Buenos Ayres; but don't think he
could do much just now, as Rosas every where APP

We are glad to see that the New York
American, at last, appreciates the importance
of returning N. P. Tallmadge to the U. s.
Senate. There will now probably not be
voice in the ranks Of the opposition against
him. He will return to Congress with the
wreath Of victory upon his brow, and verdict
of condemnation against Martin Van Buren,
in his hand. He has fought noble battle,
and come off gloriously conqueror.
The American says:

that New York will not be shorn this year of half
