petralion Of deeds Of The peridious cownrdice
enormous alrocity, and revolving inlamy? Ii such
he the fruits Of that 'c0rdial understanding" which
politicians AT home, both sides Of the chalnsl
have taken such grea delight in CRYING Ups accused,
say we, he the policy uuon which il is based for
it's consequences cannot be but disastrous To the peace
and social interests Of the whole world.
| We mentioned i'll our last that the ministers oil
England and FRI nee, in consequence OF the refusal
of the Argentine government TO yield 10 certain pre-.
pose Gus demands, had asked Tor their passports,
and embarked Tor Monevideo. We then omitted To
state The runor which current, that, during the
ordered The Argentine "a dron of Monevideo to be
placed under restraint o, We could not conceive
such bad faith possible ihthe representatives Of Two
great nations, who had been loud in their profess
lat,ons f'peace and friendship F" The fact, how
ever, was but true and accompanied by cir
cumsiances OF the most arbitrary iniuslIce and out
rage. The captains OF the British ship Cayacod and
and French frigale Africant went board the same
vessels OF the Argentine squadron, and, invoking in
slructions from their respective ministers, minated
10 the French and English volunteers that they must
to under the Argentine flag; The captain
Ct the Aricaine stating To his conItrsmen that H.,
III the event OF war between the combined powers
and the Argentine republic, they should he taken pr-
soncrs, they would be shot. liter this announce
| men, he took French leave, and was followed by the
| captain of the t;uacOa-Ihe batter, however, obser-
wing the rules OF urbanity, Scandal Jus was this
proceedings II is nothing in comparison with those
| which Immediately ensued IL Is understood that
the Argentine government, soon as II learned the
Illuminating position in which It's squadron pla-
ced, sent orders to Admiral Brown 10 withdraw
| His departure, how ever, was oppused by the Eng
lish aud French naval folces but il was minated
that, the Of the steamers, which were cx-
| pected from Buenos Ayres, every impeachment would
be removed. The Frs6rond and Fulton fnallN ar
rived on The End instant; shortly alter which, Adin-
raj Brown sgualized his Nesse Is To heaNe short their
anchors, and, after sufficient time had elapsed 10 al
low the combined fleets to mantle ST Their Intention,
without any ohectien having been intlmaed, he or
d"red the squadron 10 get under way, which was i'm
medalely done by the Gtnrct San Martin, the
Pcate Cinco de Mage and the N1tere dc Jutio; the
| General Echayue and the Maypa being rather taihy
in the operation, from accident restraint. A. soon
as this movement perceived by The combined
fleets, vessels detached in pursuil, aud several
shots fred at those Of The Argentine squadron
under way; one Of which going through The sitrn Of
Admiral Browns flag ship, he struck his co'ors as
| did likewise The Fente Cinco and the Ninth Of Ju-
| ~; aud possession was Immediately taken Of them
| by the allies. Thus the ing lorious deed con-
summaed but Us II did nat appear inl,muns enough
| to its auhuls, commission Of Monieyldto Rivie-
risas sent on hoard, 10 tamper wi.h the captur
| ed crews. To the honor OF the latter, however, be
il saId that with the exception OF The greater part
nl the English and French volunteers, they remained
faithful IL their flag, spurung all the brilliant offers
made them for the purpose Of shaking their ale
| glance. Admiral Brown, his officers, seanen, aud
marines, were then distributed between the Two
Steamers, for The purpose vi being sent 10 Buenos
Ayres; but, belnre they allow ed To DEPART The
admiral, and sush OF his officers were natives of
| the United Kingdom, were obliged 10 sign pledge
that they wond not serve again during The contest
| The steamers arrived here the 9th; and MS soon
as the nature Of their eriand ascerlalned, the
expression OF the deepest Indignation could he read
in The face VI every honorable foreigner, ns well as
Of the natives IN general. Still II depressed, and
| English officers and seamen walked about as uncOn-
cernedly as ii nothing had happened; and the whole
French legation were Ms gay as ever The same eve
ming AT lertulia ut his exce!ency's house. In what
other country in the world would such forbearance
be manifested, such confidence placed in the rul-
| ing powerl Admiral Brown, who came
up in the Fulton, did not dsembark till the 7th.-
| He came shore in French boat. the French COR
veue Coqusne sauting him with fifteen guns, on his
leaving The Fulton. What cruel irony! The gal
| liant veteran received, on his landing, with loud
cheers by considerable crowd, which had collected
III spite OF a pouring rain. His carriage was IN
waiting, TO which he conducted by The captain Of
the port, and in which he Immediately proceeded to
his quina.
| Ii will be curious TO learn in what manner the
glorious intelligence will be received at home. viii
not Admras Lame and lngleheid be advanced TO
The peerage, and their officers promoted, for the
achievement 1t may not be too much to expect To
hear of the firing Of the Park and Tower guns, and
of uminatons taking place in all parts Of the en-
pre, well as of the thanks of both houses Of par
Lament being voted TO the yictors! For il is no tr
| fling matler-a whole squadron has been captured,
and their officers if not their crews, sent 10 shore
| on their parole Of honor, as Nelson did the van
auished French after the battle of the Nile o.,
| heavens, how tunes have changed! Would that we
had no lived 10 this day of degradation!
| But the record Of inlamy is not finished On the
| Sd INST. the Sandman packed Eafrdcia, which sail
ed from this port The LIST for the Buceo, arrived
| fall har Rrti1 uIc
Majestys brig Racer, which had also left this the
same day with The July mail The Racer having
| been signalised by The British admiral, made sail
upon the Eufracia. aud fired two guns TO bring her
to. The packet obeyed at the second shot, and AN
English officer Immediately came on board and or
| dered the captain to go alongside TO the admiral
| Shortly after, The captain of the Racer in person
| came on board, and demanded all The correspond
ence; which being delivered. seventeen letters, the
| greater part addressed To President Oribe, were
subtracted, for which receipt was gveH by Lieut..
Hamilton, stating that they to be inspected by
Admiral lngehed, who doubt Is furnished with
full powers by SIR james Graham for tins purpose,
though were not aware before th"t the right
hon bar0nels authority extended beyond the Unit
ed Kingdom The Euti acia was then ordered TO an
chor under the stern Of the admiral where she re-
manned ill 5 P M, when The captain Of the Racer
returned, and stated that she could not proceed to
the Buceo, hut might return to Buenos Ayres, or go
into MOniesid if she leased. Thus It would
seem, that without any previous declaration OF war,
OF nlnation of blockade, the port Of the Buceo Is
closed to neutral coIpmerce Ii is true, Sardinia is
AN insignificant naval power, and there is no great
risk run in insulting its flag but would the gallant
admiral have done the with vessel bearing
the colors Of The United States. We doubt il very
much. .n.-
| Now, What ls to be the effect of this overbearing
outrage and disregard for The rights Of independent
naiionsl Ii eau he other than to marshal all The
States Of America in hostile array against The two
European powers which would seem to wish TO
constitute an ogarchy Of nations, repugnant 10
reason and Justice AS obligaIchy of indiv duals.
! That such result is not unlikely To be produced,
may we think, be inferred from the following arti-
Gle Of the New York Sun Of the 30th May .Is
''1he interference Of European monarchies in the
paltzan conflicts OF this hemisphere, has aroused
! the people Of the South American republics to The
Importance of union and harmony among the great
| American republican family Of nations. The sub
ecl cha lined Uur attention several months ago when
we received intelligence Of the union Of France,
Eng and the BfazIls, for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of
| the Argentine republic in South America. In JUS
lice to ourselves, we must resist every attempt OF
European monarchies to dictate to the eebler rspub
lies Of the south; and we IRE without hope Of
| friendly alliance among all the American republics,
for mutual protection and encouragement. The Ar
| pentine News (published at Buenos Ayres) of 9th
March, abiding to The union of Brazil with France
and England expresses the belief that The exposure
of the perfdous part played by the Brazilian cabinet
in this new agitation OF the intervention question,
| will create a deep sensation IN Brazil.
"The News british Packet) goes on to say; the
republican party cannot view it but in the light Of
