The I'd ult. completed the 739th day of the
blockade of Buenos Ayres.
! In the Concrete del Plata of the 9TH ult, we
find correspondence between the Minister of
Foreign Affairs of the Republic of New Granada.
and the Minister of the same rank of the De-
partment of Buenos Ayres, touching the proposed
Congress of the South American Republics, to
take place at Lima, in which the New Grana-
dian dilates at some length on the difficulty of
fixing dcterminatey the points to be arranged by
this Congress, and the loose manner in which
the matters to be discussed are settled on, and
| the want of uniform instructions to the various
representatives, and says that New Granada fears
that although the Congress were to assemble at
Lima, but lite would be done, and the only
effect would be to make the who lie affair ridicu.

commends all the various republics first to have
a free and frank interchange of opinions on the
subject, settle on some plan as to what they
cordingly, and then, when they meet, all will 80
smooth, and can be settled on without delay
He then goes on to recommend as primary
step an arrangement ofpeace among them all from
now henceforward, which will be guaranty
to the world, of order, and the indispensable pre-
cursor of more firm alliance, which will insure
their independence, and allow them to mutually
sustsi in one another against the insults aud az
gressions OF powerful nations. AS affairs are
now, what the South American Republics have
most TO fear, IS not the intervention OF European
powers, but the provoking and attracting 1t by
their own quarrels and example; and thus to set
out with the principle OF not admitting any
such intervention is absolutely lay ing themselves
open to all other influences which are brought
l to bear, under any name or any preteXt He then
goes to say that the stand SO repeatedly taken
by the United States as regards. foreign inter-
vention, colonizing on the American continent,
and the fixing the rights, and prerogatives of
consus and ministers, ought to form the basis OF
any alliance OF the Southern Republics. He
then goes into various details as to the attitude
which the various republics ought to bear, one
to another. The whole article is a very well
| written one, and shows the spirit abroad now d.
days, among our Southern Republics. The time
for holding this congress does not yet appear to
be fixed. We regret that our files do not contain
the answer of the Buenos Ayrean government to
| this note.
