the 18th Of September, inclusive. We believe, how
ever, nat the latest advices received by the H. are

We make the following extracts from the

On the l7h inst, Mr.. Hood sailed again from this
port in her Britannia majesy's steamer Alecto, for
Montevideo, and arrived there on the 9Th We shall
probably learn in few days the result Of the hon
orable gentleman's exertons to remove every diff
Guilty calculated to retard the important objects of his
mission.
From the Buenos Ayres Packet Sept. 8.
On the 3lst ulf., at 5 a. M. her Britannia majes-
tvs steamer Alecto anchored in the outer roads,
bringing passenger Thomas Samuel Hood, esq.
At half-past 10, the honorable gentleman came on
shore with his son. He had been on the Goth with
President Orbe, and from the Buceo came direct to
this port GAS soon," says the Gaceta, "as the i'm
portant affairs of the mission with which he is in
trusted, in connection with the pacihcation of the
Rio de la Plata, SHALL from their final ISSUE to
have the character of becoming reserve, which up to
the present has been kept as well by the govern.
ment as by Mr. Hood, the fitting opportunity will
have arrived to acquaint the public with them, as
| we shall have the qualification of doing"
The native inhabitants of Montevldeo, after
having been so long pent up within the walls OF that
city, were allowed, for two three days, the pleas
ure Of freely communicating with their friends out

intercourse they might wake some fine morning
and find themselves in the midst of native popua-
ton the intrusive authorities prohibited all commu-
nication after the 3lst ult. At the same time, old
Suarez the puppet president, issued proclamation
averrng that, no matter what Don Manuel Oribe
said his were the best claims TO the supreme COM

for raising loan of five millions A considerable
number OF the members of that motley assembly

The intrusive government of Montevideo, whilst
it affects an anxiety for tho restoration of peace in
these republics has the baseness to avail itself Of
the species of armistice that de faco exists during
the tendency Of negotiations to send gang OF pr
rates to plumber and destroy the coastng craft in the

GAMERS, commanded by Portuguese, has, within
the last few days, taken and robbed four soops one

masters and crews of the captured vessels rose upon
