from Rio Janeiro at London, which confirms the
news previously received Of the close of the by
the success of the combination against President

now to be directed against the President of Buenos
Ayres. The London Chronicle says:
On the morning of the Sth Of October General

that remained with Oribe) had been offered the

In the intended campaign against General Rosas,
the chief Of the Argentine confederation, and that

the capitulation had not been nlado public; but
tho following conditions may be taken as anthem
tic The acts ofOribe, performed during the eight
and a bali years OF his occupation OF the Cerrlto,
and command OF the besieging army, are to be
considered by the Oriental government as valid /;
with the exception of all grants made by him Of
houses, lands &c, which grants TO be annulled

Later accounts, dated at Montevideo, October
18th, have the following:
sour deposits for produce already well
stocked with hides hair, horns, wool, &c, and we
shall soon require ships TO receive them.
General Urquiza remains encamped near our
city with some fourteen thousand men, composed
of Entire Reanos, Copentnos, Argentincs, and ORR
sntals and we learn that many vessels in our har
Dor had been engaged to transport his troops to
Entire Rios, or some other point up the river
fThe embarkation will commence on the 2Oth
instant, when, in short time, Urquiza will marc h
with an overwhelming army against the Governor
OF buenos Ayree whose troops have already COM
menced desertions
" General Urquiza has ex pressed himself
sured that he will overturn the dictator with the
same facility he has that OF the vanqulshed
Oribe and there ia not the slightest doubt but that
lie will accomplish it in three or four months
% The Brazilian army is near our city, but, on
the settlement OF tho contest between Urqulza and
Oribe, il was some leagues distant.
"Letters from Buenos Ayres state the dictator
is pressing for his army from the age OF fifteen to
sixty FIVE rich and poor alike, without considera-
ton, and that he Is extremely alarmed, and that
much anxiety prevailed among the inhabitants In
consequence of the recent events which have tran
spired in the Banda Oriental
