NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER.
IMPORTANT FROM BuENos AYREs.

From letter in the New York Courier, dated at
Montevideo on the 23d July, we learn that Gen.
URoUIzA has raised the siege Of Buenos Ayres and
retired to his own Province of Entire Rios. He
decamped suddenly in the night of the 18th July,
having on that day addressed the following commu-
nication to the Government of Buenos Ayres
SAN JOSH DE FLORES, jury ls, 1858.
Lave the honor of addressing the Ministers who at
present conduct the Government of Bueno Ayres to
quaint them that the question which divided this Province
from the of the Confederation having decided
by the last sanctions of the Constitutional Congress,
have resolved to retire from its territory with the national
contingents.
Upon this basis it would be convenient to all, and
highly honorable the Argentine name that the Gov
eminent of Buenos Ayres should consent and acknow
ledge be at peace with the rest Of the Confederation,
and it would be highly grateful to to receive
munica,ion TO that effect.
God preserve your Excellency many years
