weeks ago 10 the eject that he had dishonorably surren
deed the feet under his command then bockadng Buenos
Ayrcs 10 the enemy We understand that he has not yet
resolved the documents necessary TO show the fasy OF
the reports in so detailed and complete manner As 10
satisfy his desire but number of letters from Capt
Downing and others were placed in our hands some weeks
rutlicinertst. The letter of Capt Downing which VIII
he found below in characteristic ally straight for
ward frank and pungent manner that the real cause OF
the difficulty was revolt end desertion of the crews
under Com Coe in consequence of Crquzas neglect to
fuflhi obligations to them and subsequent revolt
which obliged their Commanderin Chief to seek protc
ton on the American ship jamestown, then in Buenos
Ayres the Commander OF which generously afforded him
the necessary shelter.
ton BY tie enemies of Com. Zoe, Mr. Pendleton thu
American Charge to the Argentine Confederation, wrote
10 Cap; Downing Of the Jamestown informing him of the
Tunos-to the effect that Com. Coe had sold the squad
rcn under his command and delivered the same TO the
enemy in open day that on executing the contract he
transferred by boat OF the Jamestown under cover
Of the American flag 10 the latter vessel and became the
guest OF Capt. Downing. That he Capt d. was about
leave that station carrying Com e. and his effects to
pace of security and that the jamestown had afforded
place Of consultation and negotiation for the agents
oeIned in the transaction, &c. In making these state
menis MI Pendeton explicitly dsavows any responsibility
the truth of any of the charges made implied
but wishes understood that he makes them simply by
way Of information and that the rumors were generally
current. &c.
