WELLINGTON.  r ;t the  these settlements, we ..ear that, at the instancy WELLesuiv, a Flemish Noblernan has been app ~,iiited to snersede Governor Emo at the Rio de la Plata, whose intemperance and severity, instead of retardinty., have greatly accelerated the progress of the Revolution. The Ann and Maria has arrived from the Rivers Vale, from whence we have intelligence as late as to the 17th June. From this source we learn, that on the day preceding, the fortress of Monte Video had surrendered to the assailants. A short time before, the partizans of am had made a sortie, when they were defeated and driven back within the walls. It is supposed that ate, and his principal adherents, had effected their escape by water, but this particular is not distinctly ascertained. Ministers have received dispatches from Lord STRANGFORS, dated the 7th ult. from Rio Janeiro, confi, ming the above statement. The operations in the interior of South America are scarcely less interesting than those of the maritime boundaries. Two dispatches, of a Chief of the name of BARTHOLOMEW ZARATA, announce the capture, by the Revolutionists, of the towns of Cualeguay, leguasihie, and Arrajo de la China. It seems that the same skirmishing warfare which has been adopted in the mother country, is now resorted to by the friends of the ne-v order of things in the colonies, but with much more success, from the feeble means of opposition'possessed by their enemies, the extent of whose power is in no proportion to the violence of their rage, and the keenness of their disappointment. We this morning received Dublin papers of Tuesday last. They contain the Resolutions voted at the Catholic Meetings of Kilkenny and Galway, which were held last week. They are similar to those which have been voted at other nieetingsthroughout Ireland. Lord FINGAL is said to have called a meeting of the Catholics of the county of Meath.—Mr. To Jotors has addressed a letter to the Catholics of the coenty of Down, calling upon them to appoint Managers to watch over their interests.  Sotne extracts from the Spanish Papers, brought by the Comus, will be found in another part of our Paper. The intelligence from Cadiz brought by the CoMus, respecting the operation of the Spanish armies, is of en interesting description. General BLAKE has set out on a new expedition. He has under him 5000 men, and a considerable train of artillery. He waited the arrival at Cadiz of a detachment of the army of B.ALLASTEROS, which sailed for Ayamonte, and he himself departed, taking the direction of the Gut of Gibraltar, on the 29th ultimo. No daub c is entertained that he is gone to join the forces under General Yams, on the western frontiers of Murcia, denorhistated the Third Army. The 47th regiment had returned to Cadiz from its abortive attempt to assist in the relief of Tarragona. There is a farther account brought from Valencia, too, tithe fall of this unhappy place, but which adds nothing to the particulars with which we were before acquainted. The enemy are-said to have lost twelve hundred Mien in a sally niade by the garrison of Figneiras t if 30, the fall of that place may, perhaps, be delayed a while: we fear, however, the event must ultimately take place. it will be observed, that Marshal MACDONALD, having murdered a*Spanish Aid-de-Camp, who he bad taken prisoner, the Governor of Figueiras retaliated by putting five Freneh officers to death, and -sending a sisth to MACDONALD to inform him of the balust consequences which had resulted from his barrity.  DUBLIN, Atm= 19.—Yesterday being the last day for receiving the votes, the arrival of the maili from Holyhead was anxiously looked for by both of the Candidates. It did not arrive until a late hour last night, and brought the votes of Lords MuIRA, BARRYNORE) mid
