From BUENos AYREs.-The Boston Advert
ser is indebted to q correspondent for the follow
ing extract from mercantile circular from a
house in Buenos Ayres, under date of May 80,
containing information Of some interest:
We are still in the same state Of siege as be-
fore; the negotiation which had commenced, by
the meditation Of the Brazilian and Bolivian,
ministers, has not been successful. On the 3d
of June, all merchant vessels will have to leave
this port, loaded or not, and It is reported that
no extension Of time will be granted. The Con-
gress of Santa Fe has sanctioned Constitution,
also Customhouse law. with facilities of deposit,
similar, we believe to the one now IN force here,
and another acknowledging the free navigation
of the rivers. The town of Buenos Ayres is
named the capital of the confederation. IF the
town does not accept the Constitution, then
another place will be named. A commission has
been appointed by Congress to present the Con-
stitution to this Government, but we have no
hopes of its being accepted

WE ALL HAD I'd DO IA half a score of
young urchins were gathered around CON-
panion whose paIid face indicated that he
was very sick, the result of some juvenile
indiscretion. The little fellows were busy
in offering their sympathy in various home
ly phrases. The truth is, he had taken a
chaw of tobacco for the first time in his life,
and having swallowed a portion of the weed
grew deadly sick One little fellow, who
seemed to understand more fully his CON-
panion's situation than any of the others,
gently placed on the sick boys shoulder his
hand, and said in voice of deep condo
lence: "Never mind, Jimmy, 1re all had to
go through this Gerry severe trial." r5

% Hon. Edward Everett related this
incident in a recent lecture delivered at
Tripler Hall, New York: "When was in
London few years ago received letter
from one of the interior counties of England,
telling me that they had in their House of
Correction an American seaman, or a
person who pretended to be, who was both
pauper and rogne. They were DESTROYS of
being rid of him, and kindly offered to place
him at my disposal. Although he did not
bid fair to be very valuable acquisition,
| wrote back that he might be sent to
London, where he could be shipped by the
American Consul 10 the United States.
ventured to add the suggestion, that if Her
Majesty's Minister at Washington were ap-
piled to in similar way, by the overseers
of the poor and wanlens of the United
States, he would be pretty busily occupied
But really felt pleased at time when my
own little State Of Massachusetts was assist

American pauper quartered upon it.

A second dispatch, dated u o'clock, NJ,
says: s.,z Va
The man is still in the rapids, apparently
dropping. The life-boat was sent on from
Buffalo; bnt sad to say, proved too light,
swamped Immediately it was launched, and
was lost over the rapids. Unfortunately,
but one boat was sent. The situation Of the
unfortunate man grows more and more crit
ical, and it is questionable whether he can
sustain fhiiuIsetf until another boat arrives.
A third dispatch, dated 81, P. NJ, says:
The man went over the Falls at O'Clock.
A raft had been hoated TO him, which he
was on, when they floated another life-boat
to him, and as be was getting ready to
Jump into il the boat struck the raft and
swept him off into the rapids. He attempted
to swim 10 a small island, but failed to reach
it. He raised himself up to his full height,
gave shrek, waived his arms wildly, and
disappeared.
