FROM BUENOS AYRES.

By the brig Arcturus at Boston, dates to the 18th
August have been received. U. S. sloop Decatur,
Capt. Henry w. Ogden, arrived at Buenos Ayres,
July %, from Rio Janeiro and Montevideo.
1t appears that the result of the naval battle which
had taken place between the fleets of Buenos Ayres
and Montevideo, very indecisive, and there is
little chance for an immediate settlement of difficult
ties
The British Government had offered to mediate, bu,
it is thought that Gen Rosas would never listen tc
its overtures. There is no authentic news promul-
gated in regard the of the affairs in the Up
per Provinces, which leads to infer that the Fee
deral party had not been successful.
The following is extract from letter to the Bos-
ton Daily Advertiser
Masters of vessels coming to this port should be
careful to make out their manfess with black or red
ink, otherwise they are liable to be much delayed
and perplexed entering at the Resguardo and Gus
tom House. Should any of the papers required be
written with blue ink the officers in attendance posi-
lively refuse to admit the vessel to entry until fresh
copies witten out in color more congenial to their
political feelings and taste.
Some executions have lately taken place. and among
others, one is said to be Vera who until lately, was
partisan of the present administration. He it was
who, to be revenged for trfng insult addressed
false letters to Bace the French lthographer in 1887
succeeded in getting others from him addressed to
Rvadavia, giving some information that Mr.. Rosas
thought reasonable which led to the arrest of Bace
his death in prson-the consequent claims of France
for heavy damages, and finally, with other small mat
tiers, to The long and tedious blockade"

THE PUBLIC PRESS.

According to official accounts recently published
there are more newspapers circulated in he American
Union than in any other country the face of the
globe Thus---in Great Britain and Ireland the
number of newspapers published is 490; in France
$50; in the German States 3OS; in Holland $50;
in Prussia $685. and in the United States 1855 peri
odcas, 1850 Of which are newspapers. Some of
our weekies circulate many as from 10000 to So.
600 copies Of each number, and we believe that one
of the penny papers of New York issues more than
80 coo copies daily. II will be SEEN thereto re- that
the vast multitude read in this country---that millions
Of human beings pore over the Columns OF oul pub
lie journals, and imbibe from them either sentiments
of vice virtue The draymen at the corners of our
streets, the fsh-women in our markets, the match
boys and apple girls who pass from day to day through
the various sections Of the city-al or nearly all,
seem to have some taste for newspaper literature
The press may indeed be described as the great moral
engine of the country 1t penetrates into every vii
age and hamlet. The merchant in his counting
room the professor in his study, the mechanic in his
workshop--al gather from the newspapers some idea
of the progress of public aarssome notion of men,
morals, manners and the great topics of public dis
oussion. How important then that the press should
be in honest hands--shoud be directed at least with
an eye TO the greatest good of the greatest number
and should avoid everything calculated vitiate and
deprave. Generally speaking, American newspapers,
on all proper occasions incucate sound lessons of mo-
raliy But there are exceptions exceptions in which
vtiated taste Is appealed to and pam pered and in
which deliberate effort is made to undermine all
that should be held sacred in society and religion.
