From the Boston Traveller, August rs.
Later from Buenos Ayres.
BY the arrival at this port of the ship Louisa,
Captain Dodge, have advices to the 4th of July,
which is twenty one days later direct. There has
been in the new government of Buenos Ayres
what in European parlance would be called a
| "crisis." :. uge-.
1t appears that in consequence of the virulent
opposition in the Chambers to the convention Mt
San Nicolas, and the bitter and violent debates
that there took place, that the Governor of Buenos
Ayres resigned, followed by a dissolution of the
Chambers by Urquiza. In q circular sent to the
British charge Mr.. Gore, by order Of Urquiza, the
reason of the dissolution IL thus made known:
"The Chamber Of Representatives without liber.
ty in it's deliberations, the ministers of the execu
tive power compelled to resign their offices, and
the governor Of the province himself having to
sign an authority whose voice was disregarded and
drowned in the clamor of the most insufferable
despotsm, constituted effective state of anarchy
which the provisional director could not tolerate.
without a serious responsibility before the nation
and the whole world" "&
He concludes by saying that he shall not extend
the authority with which he is invested beyond the
time and the necessary for the re-estab-
lishment OF internal order of this province. &c.,
After the dissolution of the Chambers there were
some symptoms of rebellion among the citizens of

quiza, but judicious proclamation from Urquiza
quoted matters. He denounced the anti social de-
signs Of a few demagogues, and counselled good
citizens and the friends Of order to rally round the
constituted authorities, with the assurance that
their persons and interests would be scrupu-
lously respected, and their rights unfiinchipgly
maintained and vindicated. For few days after
the dissolution all the printing offices closed
by order Of Urquiza except the Progress0, for the
issue of official documents.
A proclamation was nlso made to the foreign
residents OF Buenos Ayres, counselling them in the
crisis to which certain demagogues had reduced
that city, exposing it to the horrors of civil war, to
the national cockade, hoist their flags at their
residences, and not to give an um to the dema-
gogues who were threatening the peace OF the city.
Five of the leading opposition representatives
were ordered into Punishment, with liberty to
choose their destination, and were arrested and
placed on board a steamer for that purpose.
The provisional government was reinstalled tenn
porariiy, and at last accounts order main
tanned. Letters state that no fear of any actual
collision is felt at Buenos Ayres. Business was
very dull; hides high and rising; freights low;
English and French vessels in port, and but few
American. .. 49,
