LATE AND INTERESTING FROM BUENos
AYRES.

AfHEsO.
By the ship Brutus, Capt. Adams, we have Bue-
nos Ayres papers to July 26th, and letter of Au-
gust Cd, as follows:
BuENos AYREs, I'd August, ls45.
The negotiations of the English and French
ministers plenipotentiary had very abrupt ter
mination on the 3lst July, by the two legations re-
ceiving their passports Consequentyal intercourse
has ceased
The step that led to this result, was the demand
the part of the ministers that the Argentine army
be Withdrawn from the territory Of the republic Of
Uruguay. As this demand was made without
any guarantee on the part of the ministers of the
withdrawal of the French under arms in Montevi-
deo and virtually sustaining the present govern
ment in Montevideo--which is entirely French and
English, there being only oil native citizens under
arms against the Argentine government--the Ar
genuine government replied that they could not
withdraw their army; that the entire republic was
quiet in possession of the legal PRESIDENT and that
a Congress, according TO the constitution, would
assemble at the Buceo the LIST of August that the
oil men under arms in Mortevideo could not be
balanced with IA, ll3 men under arms under their
legal President.
The great majority of the citizens of the repub-
lie are favor Of, and have taken arms under General
Oribe the legal PRESIDENT and it is most unjust that
to please parcel Of English and French specula-
tors, the two ministers should insist upon csiab-
fishing their government. An immediate blockade
ended.
A daily drill ofthe militia takes place, and the
returns Of the army Of the Argentine confederation
give 1900 men under arms, Of whom $4,000 are
old troops.
The charge daffaires of the U. s., Mr.. Brent has
protested against the interference Of the European
nations in the politics Of American Republics
Yours, in haste, A. c.
Thus far the letter. The British Packet contains
a notice from Capt. Hortham ofthe British steamer
Gorgon, offering to British residents at Buenos
Ayres themeans Of embarcation should they desire
it.
Capt. A. says business at Buenos Ayres was at a
stand the paper currency was deprecating, "a silver
dollar being worth from $l3 to SIG paper, and a
doubloon S206 to $3.50.
Capt. A. mentions report that the dispute was
likely to be adjusted, but says nothing could be
depended The above letter is Of the very latest
date and from an intelligent source but intmates no
expectation Of an engagement.
The Buenos Ayres government were pressing men
in the country. 1t reported that on some farms all
the males were taken, and the cattle suffered to
at large. Produce had risen in value, and but little
was offered for sale.-Phil. Sentinel.

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM THE AR
GENTINE REPUBLIC.

BY the Brutus, Captain Adams, from Buenos
Ayres, we have papers to the LIST of August
The French and English ministers, as we were
advised, left Buenos Ayres for Monte
video, in consequence Of not being able to induce
the Argentine government to terminate the war
with Montevideo for the recovery Of the Oriental
State.
General Rosas refusing to withdraw his troops or
raise the blockade the British admiral issued the
following memorandum:
II. M. FRIGATE GoRGoN,
BuENos AYREs, Oath July, 1645.
Memorandum:
Although the protection afforded by the Argen-
tine government to the British residents in Buenos
Ayrcs has been ever most complete and satisfac-
tory, and the fullest reliance is still placed in their
intention and desire to respect and protect their per-
sons and property; nevertheless, It becomes duty
the part of the senior officer in command of her
Maiesly's ships in these roads, to provide means
of embarcaton for such of his countrymen who
may hereafter think proper to remove from this
city. Under these circumstances, he is induced to
quest that the masters of British merchant vessels
will comply with the instructions contained in the
accompanying memorandum.
CHAS. HOTHAM,
Captain and Senior Officer.
To the respective masters of British merchant YES
sells in the roads Of Buenos Ayres
1t is impossible to say what effect may be pro-
duced by this interference in the affairs of the South
American republic by the squadrons of England and
France, or whether they have the authority ofthose
governments SO to act.
A blockade of any port Of that country by Eng
land or France, would be most unwarraniabe Vi
olation of their neutrality Several numbers of the
Gaceta are filled with dispositions and other official
proceedings relating to the murder of Scotch fami-
ly named Kidd, consisting Of nine persons, at San
Vicente, near Buenos Ayres. A reward Of ten
thousand dollars was offered for the discovery Of the
murderers, this being part off larger sum contribu-
ted by Governor Rosas, the British and French
minister's officers of the British and French squad
rons, and others, to- be expended in measures for
Furnishing the authors Of the deed. The murdered
persons were Andrew Kidd, aged SIS; Jane, his
wife, aged SO; Anna, Diego, and Isabel Kidd, aged
"a, 10, and 3O Jane, Rebecca, and Samuel Preston,
children of Isabel, (who was the widow Of Hiram
Preston,) aged 10, 8, and 81 and an infant Of
months.
Business was entirely at stand.

VENEzuELA.--By the Caracas, at this port, we
have dates from Puerto Cabello to the 18th Of Sep
TENDER. The letter Of our correspondent at La
guayra fails us by this arrival for the first time in
two years. The letter received by the Exchange is
given below. We have, however, files of the
Caracas Liberal and the Vigia of Laguayra, from
which we extract the following particulars:
Exports Of coffee mp to date at Laguayra, 102676
qqs. compared with lis, 20S at the same time last
year; cocoas, q, 126 fanegas; hides, 33,417
The correspondence Of the late charge d'affaires,
the Hon. Vespasian Ellis, with the Minister Of
Foreign Relations of Venezuela, continues to attract
the attention of the public at Caracas; and that
too, with no slight credit to our late charge. We
are pleased TO notice this fact, we have been for
sone time cndeavoring to draw the attention Of
own people to the importance Of the movement as
commenced by Mr. Ellis.
In the Liberal Of the Both of August, we find the
announcement of the death Of Juan Manuel Valdez,
at the city Of Augostura, on the 3lst Of July. As
one Of the old leaders in the first revolution in Vene-
zuela, his actions won for him the most cnviable
reputation.
The official report of the custom-house ut Puerto
Cabclo gives, for the first six months of the year
l645, duties collected, Sl50,9l6 40. The value, az
estimated, Of the exports from the port for the
same time, was s925, 109 15.--Pha. " s. Gazette.
