tits officially announced in the government ga
zette of Saturday last that LEVI WOODBURY., now
one Of the Senators in Congress from the State OF
New Hampshire, has been appointed by the Presi-
dent of the United States to be one Of the Associate
Judges Judge Of the Supreme Court in the place
Of JOSEPH Story, deceased.
Mr.. WOODBURY. has been for twenty years in the
General Government-frst as Senator, afterwards
for several years Secretary of the Navy afterwards
Tor several years Secretary of the Treasury, and
again Senator from New Hampshire, succeeding in
that Office Mr.. HUBBARD. Before entering into the
General Government he had been Governor of hi.
own State, and, we believe, Judge in the highes
court Of that State. He has had all the advantages
therefore, which would be derived from extensive
experience in public affairs, in the Of which
he must have acquired perfect knowledge of the
laws of the United States.
We do not know that better appointment could
have been expected, under all the circumstances, to
fill the vacancy in question.

FROM BUENos AYREs.


Accounts to the 2lst Of July represent affairs in
the River Plate to remain without change. The
English and French Ministers had demanded the
withdrawal of the Argentine army from the terri
tory of the Uruguay Republic and the removal OF
the Argentine squadron from before MonteWdeo,
which the Argentine Government had refused to do,
and required that they should acknowledge the
rigorous blockade Of Montevideo. Affairs were
thus put at issue, and the next step of the two
Ministers was awaited with much anxiety.
A correspondent of the Journal of Commerce
censures this interference the part of European
nations. He charges the French and English with
aiding General PAz, in Corrientes; part Of whose
forces (under General LoPEz) had recently sur
prised and entered the city of Santa Fe. The in
vaders, after sackng the town, retired, taking with
them about four hundred women and girls, and cut
ting the Threats Of most Of those left behind, inclu-
ding all their prisoners. The same letter adds:
ssAbout thousand in Corentes and four hundred
in the city Of Montevdeo assisted by thousand hun
bred Frenchmen with arms the only enemies that
exist TO the Argentine Government in all America and for
these this splendid country DO again the of civil
war and boodshed. The Argentine Government offer to
arms the complete independence of the Uruguay Republic
and the entire pac6caton Of this part Of South America if
the English and French squadron withdraw their support from
the city Of Montevheo The quiet entry of General ORIBE
would follow and commerce would be again usual
Mr. BREST charge, has noby taken stand support
and rights by protesting against the En-
gsh and French agents again exciting civil by taking
part uphold the few remnants of General RrvERAs party
and against any blockade, any other Of inter-
| ference"
The Buenos Ayrean Packet also protests
against he interference of the European Powers,
and maintains
"Thai the question at issue of paramount mpor-
al the States Of America from republican suscep
biy Only in regard the interference of monarchcal Eu-
rope buom the vital principles of independent existence
involves and respect which there can be no compro-
mise. Ills substantially reduced this Is the Argentine
Republic the Republics Of America members Of the great
family Of nations, they es of the crowned heads
Of Europe The Argentine Government the former
The sq.drons of England and France practically maintain

| The" Packet of the 10th July has the follow
ing paragraph:
We understand that President OnIBE has convoked the
Legislative Chambers of the Oriental State, which
unceremniousy turned Of doors by RIVERA in 1885,
assemble forthwith in the vicinity Of Monevdeo for the des-
patch of important business that the whole territory
the Republic the capital excepted obeys the legal authority
We believe that with very few exceptions the whole of the
members Of those Chambers are still alive and will attend
their post"

MOROCCO.

correspondent suggests that the refusal of the
Emperor of Morocco, through the Bashaw of Tan
giers to recognise our recently appointed Consul,
calls for wisdom and prudence in those who have
the management of our foreign affairs. 1t is not in
itself, he says, just occasion of hostilities but it
may lead to state of things from which amicable
relations will with difficulty be restored. We have
now, as it happens, no naval force in the Medter-
ranean; but, as the Mexican war-cloud has pretty
much departed of our national ships, he doubts
not, will soon be ordered into that sea. !.
