BUENos AYREs AND ITS PRospEcTs.-The politi-
cal and social position Of Buenos Ayres is beginning
to attract much more attention in this country than
it was accustomed to have bestowed upon it previ-
ousy to the last revolution, that relieved it from
tyrannca oppressor Since the defeat of Rosas, and
his expulsion from the country, the commercial nte-
rests, here and elsewhere, have been anxiousy
watching for the accounts received from thence in
order to ascertain the principles and character of the
men who have carried out that great revolution,
and to calculate what sort Of a government they
may expect erected the ruins Of that ter
rible despotism which had long existed under the
regime of the sanguinary Rosas. The intelligence,
however, which reaches US from that remote part Of
South America comes in very minute portons--in
mere dribbles-and SO disconnected ms to requiro
great deal of attention, and industry to string
these items together and arrive at understanding
of the course of events which have taken place
in that rich and distant country, and draw from
them anything like an accurate opinion of its
present position and prospects. Hitherto, Buenos
Ayres and the immense adjacent provinces, wa
tered by the numerous rivers of that region, have
only been objects of interest or contemplation to
small PORTION of the mercantile community, and
that principally in this city. The United States
cultivate either commercial or political relations
with those immense territories, leaving thereby
wider field for France and England to carry forward
their intrgues in its affairs. 1t is to be hoped, how
overland we have seen some symptoms thereof in
the new movements-that the government at Wash.
ington intends to pay much more attention in future
to our commercial and political connections with
Buenos Ayres and the countries bordering the La
Plata, than it has heretofore done.
Infurtherance Of these ideas, pervading our 60.
vernment and anmatng the commercial interests
connected with these countries, there has lately
sprung up great spirit of inquiry relative to the
progress Of important events there since the recent
fight of Rosas, and the suspicious revolution that
has taken place in the internal government. Ac-
cording to all accounts the symptoms are favorable.
although our information on the subject is confused
and fragmentary The commercial interests will, Of
course form the FIRST matter Of inquiry and settle
ment by the new government Of Buenos Ayres aud
the neighboring provinces; but we have information
that the social and religious condition of these
countries has already occupied their attention, and
received consideration Of n favorable nature. The
Inst accounts state that the religious intolerance,
or exclusi, encss which has prevailed there for my
years past, through the influence Of the Catholic
church, has been SO far relaxed as to allow all
foreigners and hers to observe and celebrate their
rel yIous rites and ceremonies in their way.
This is a great boon-an advance Ia the PRINCIPLES
OF civil and political rights, and It speaks iavorably
for the disposition and temper OF the new govern
mept, and the men who Dave brought about the
present state Of public affairs
More time and better information necessary,
before correct or full idea be formed Of the
chnrges which the recent events in that country
mpy work now aud hereafter, on its condition in
ey,ry roint Of view--rogOus, social and political
We sbal watch with much interest the progress oi
affairs.
