FOREIGN NEWS.
NEW-YORK, SEPT. 9.
The ship Nestor, capt. Scott, has just
arrived from Liverpool in the short pas
sage of 33 days.
By this arrival we have received Lon
don papers to the 2d of August, and Li
verpool to the 4th, both inclusive —15
days later than were before received.—
We have not been able to procure
oor regular files of Lloyds and other lists
through the Post Office in season for our
Postscript. Such accounts of the mar
kets, and such shipping intelligence as
we could gathef from our papers will be
found below.
The Z.ondon Morning Chronicle of the
2d of August states, that every thing
seems to indicate that there are very im
portant, and not very amicable discus
sions on the tapis at present, between
the Cabinets of London, Madrid and St.
Petersburg!). It states that Ferdinand
has demanded the active assistance of
the other powers, by a marine force, to
fut an end to the depredations of the
nsurgent privateers, and also to afford
the means of an armament for bringing
back the revolted provinces of,South-A
merica to subjection—that intermedia
tion is mere trifling, and that it is now
too late for neutrality. The revolution,
it is stated, is so far advanced, that with
out active aid in ships, men and money,
the whole of South America must be lost,
to the mother country; and that Spain
will look elsewhere for assistance, if de
nied it by England. It is also intimated
that the Emperor of Russia has offered'
his services, on condition that Spain,
shall cede to Russia in full sovereignty,
the two Califarnias and Minorca; and
that Ferdinand has declared that he must
comply with the conditions. ‘
The Sun, an tvening paper of thei
same day, notices ihe article in theCbron-.
icle, and declaresit untrue.
Lord Amherst and suit arrived at
Spithead, from his unsuccessful mission
to China, on the? 30th of July.
An article under the head of Berlin,
July 18th, states, chat the Princess Char

with extraordinary pomp, to his Imperial'
Highness the Grind Duke Nicholas, af-|

partaking the sacrament, according to
the Greek Church.

Last night we received the Paris pa
pers of Saturday. They announce the
execution of the Spanish general, Lacy,
whose fate has excited so much interest.
He was shot at four o’clock in the morn
ing of the sth instant, and immediately
on his arrival .in the'-island of Majorca.
Mr. Planta, lord Castlereagh’s secre
tary, has been appointed to succeed Mr.
Cooke, as under secretary of state for the

due to nearly 40 years of public service. ;
An officer of the 03 regiment, at St.
Helena, writes word—
“ Bonaparte allows no person to visit
him but his own retinue, seldom walks
and never rides out a promenading; his
billiard room is the only exercise he en
joys; he is more sallow (his natural com
plexion) than when I first saw him, and
more stopped, owing i suppose, to a want
of his usual exercise. Count Lascasses
and son were sent off the Island for en
deavouring to forward privately some
communication to Europe. The attempt
was extremely ingenious, done on satin,
in hieroglyphics and other characters,
and could not be decyphered without the
aid of a microscope; this was made up
into a waistcoat, and given to a boy, a
native, lately a servant in his establish
ment, with instructions to present it to a
correspoadent at home, for which he was
to receive a handsome reward. The lad
informed his father of the secret.”

AFFAIRS OF^SOUTH-AMERICA.
FROM LATR LONDON PAPERS.
According to letters from Spain, near
ly the whole of the Spanish cavalry, to
the number of 2000, (another paper says
20,000) were about to assemble in Anda
lusia. It is added that they were about
to embark 5 or 4 at a time for South-
America. Another article states that
11 men are to be taken by lot from each
regiment of the line in Spain, and the
whole force thus assembled, amounting
to about 6000, it is said will be sent to
South-America.
Whatever may be our sentiments res
pecting the struggles for independence
in Spanish-America, we shall neither
countenance rebellion on the one hand,
nor despotism on the o/’.er. As, how
ever, Great-Britain was in a state of am
*l . vs r r - ’y# . V'.
ity with the several powers of Europe, it
becomes her to be careful that no meas
ures are adopted in this country incon
sistent with our amicable relations. The
following facts are, therefore, particu
larly entitled to the notice of our rulers.
A snip called the Two Friends, is now
lying at Spithead, on board of which are
upwards of 100 English Officers who are
avowedly going to support the Indepen
dents in South-America. There are,
we are sure agents for these Indepen
dents now in London and at Ports
mouth, who promise to all Englishmen
who are disposed to join their cause,
one rank higher than what they held in
the British service. These Officers are
also promised 200 dollars each on their
arrival on the Spanish Main to defray
their passage. vVe hear besides, that 5
ships are now fitting out in London, sup
posed to be for the same destination.
We have no doubt but Ministers will
act discreetly on this occasion, but we
deem it our duty to submit the subject
to their attention.
From the Seine, June 14.
The Portuguese Ambassadors at seve
ral courts have received precise instruc
tions from their Government to declare
that it has not the smallest intention of
seizing upon any of the tfpanis'h posses
sions in /South-America; and thai v the
country of whi ch it has in fact taken pos
session, will be restored as soon as /Spain
shall have established its authority on ■
the River La Plata.
it is certain that this declaration of
the court of Brazils has made the most
favorable impression on the Ambassadors
of the mediating powers, and that, in the
last great conference which took place
at Paris on this head, not only was this
very satisfactory declaration taken into
consideration, but this led to discussions
which may be of great importance to
wards the maintenance of order and
tranquility. The insurrections both in
Brazil and in other parts of *S’outh-A in er
ica were taken under serious considera
tion. Engagements are spoken of which
the courts enter into, and which they in
vite all the other powers. INCLUDING
THE UNITED STATES OF NORTH
AMERICA, to join, not only not to af
ford any kind of assistance to' the people
who are in,a state ofinsurrection, but en
tirely to break off all intercourse with
them. It is expected that several par
ticulars relative to this will be made pub
lic.”

31EW9 FROM THE SFANISH MAIN.
By the schooner Major Croghan, capt.
Wootten, which arrived here last eve
ning in 25 days from Curracoa, we have
received theCurracoaGazette to the 9th
of August, which furnishes the latest advi
ces of the military operations in Spanish
South America.
From the Curatoa Gazette.
By the arrival of the British brig Mary
Ann, capt. Wood, from Puerto Cabello,
we are enabled to lay before our readers
some authentic particulars relative to the
late expedition which arrived from Spain,
of which we have heard so many' con
tradictory accounts. It appears then,
that it consited of two frigates of 32 guns
each, a sloop of war of 22 guns, and thirty
transports, (several of which were armed
in flute) conveying SSOO troops, the
whole having disembarked at Cumana a
' bout the end of May. Early in June
general Morillo arrived at Cumana in the
sloop of war Baylen, of 24 guns, accom
panied by the brigs Pcrignon and Jacinta,
of 18 guns each. After having taken
the command of the army, ana having
subdued Cariaco, Cumanacoa, and Caru
pano, general Morillo returned to Cuma
na, leaving garrisons of creol troops to
protect the conquered places. Colonel
Ximines has been sent with 600 men to
* attack Guira, where some patriot forces
had retired.
These dispositions having been made,
the troops from Spain were re-embarked
on board the transports,and accompanied
by the vesssls of war, set sail for the isl
and of Coche, where colonel Aldame,
who commanded 2d division from Bar
celona, having joined general Morillo,
the whole preceded against Margarita.
A landing was effected at-Port North,
where the patriots made some resistance.
The Spanish loss is stated at 9 men kil
led and three officers wounded, the patri
ots losing at the same time three hundred
and fifty men. General Morillo sent a
flag of truce into Pampatar, and it is as
serted that the officer who .carried it was
put to death. The places was immedi
ately stormed and taken with very little
resistance, there being only two guns in
the fort. Accordingly to the last ac
counts received in Puerto Cabello, the
Spaniards were in possession of the whole
island, with exception of the mountain
ous parts to which the patriots had fled.
From the Curracoa Gazette of Aug. 9
Letters from .St. Thomas of the 28th
ultimo, coming from very respectable
sources, furnish us with the following in

from Cumana and Margarita, which our
readers will perceive is in direct contra

relative to the successes of general Mo

but whether in the present case the uc’
counts or the one party should be VtSev
ed in preference to those of the other
we shall leave it to the judgment of on?
readers to de&nuiuc.
“The expedition directed by funeral
Morillo against Mjujarita has met with
an unfavourable iSsUev lie had succeed,
ed so far in landing a considerable num
ber of troops mjar the bank of the Are
nas, at the same'time that his squadron
was meiuaicing Pain pa tar. The people
of Margaritta conceiving this to be a
scheme of the enemy, in order to conceal
their real intent, which was safely to ef
fect a landing, left a garrison at Pampatr,
sufficient to annoy their operations in
that quarter, and marched with the grea

ted, until they were caught in the centre
and in the middle of two fires. The sur
prise of the enemy was such, that accor
ding to the accounts of the patriots, they
suffered a most extraordinary and san
guinary defeat, and fled in great disorder.
Their loss isolated at 600 slain,& a .equal
number.off wounded, who were conveyed
in five vessels to Cumaoa, a great num- >
ber diapered in who were
daily made and some drowned
in the confusion to regain their ships.—
Ihree whole days had oeen employed by
the victors to secure the ammunitions a
bandoned by the royalists, and it is as
serted that none of these would have es
caped had there been time for the cavalry
to co-operate to ad vantage.
“General Merino, drawing proper ad
vantage from this victory and from the
unprotected state in which general To
rino had abandoned Cumana, for the
sake off he great axpeditiun against Mar
garita, availed himself of the opportunity
now offered to him to retake Cariaco and
Carupauo, and advanced against Guma
na, which place was reduced to a state
of starvation.
“A /Spanish corvette has run aground
on Point Aragua, and the inhabitants of
Margarita were actively employed to
get her afloat, as an acquisition to their
navy,
“News arrived at St Thomas from
Grenada, Trinidad, Barbadoes, Mar
tinique and St. Bartholomews, confir
med uniformly the progress of the Re
publican army against Guayana, and the
final reduction of that place. Admiral
Briou entered the Oronoco with the
squadron under his command, and made
some valuable prizes. /Seven flecherae
from Margarita fell in with, and com
pletely de«ti*oyed twenty Spanish vessels
in the mouth of that river.
“The /Spanish officer who had taken
Barcelona, and put every one of its in
habitants to the sword, has been lately
beaten by general Zaraza; who besides
surprized a /Spanish garrison ol‘2somen,
in the town of 8m Diego.

St. LOUIS, August 23.
By a gentleman just arrived here
from New Orleans, via. river Ouachitta,
we are informed that a formidable co*
alition of Indians tribes have assembled I
at the Cherokee village on the Arkansas, I
consisting of Cherokees, Chactaws, I
Shawanees, and Delawares from the I
cast side of the Mississippi, and Caddo's I
Coshattes, Tankaewahs, Commanchetv ■
ami the Cherokees of the Arkansas; fofß
the purpose of waging war against the ■
Osages. The Coshattes. Tankawahs, ■
and Caddo’s of Red river and the Cher* I
okees of the\ Aarkansas, complain that I
the Osages are perpetualy sending strong I
war parties into their country, killing I
small hunting bands of their people, l|
and driving off their horses. Our infor- I
mant traveled part of the distance be- I
tween the Ouachitto and Arkansas rivers I
with a large party, going on to join the
confederate troops. They had six field I
pieces with several white and half breed*, l|
who learned the usp of artillery under
Gen. Jackson last war. They saidihey I
were informed that the Osages had built ■
forts, to which they intended to retreat ■
after the general battle, which it is thot’ | j
will be fought near Earhait's salt works ■
on the Arkansas, on the cluster of ■
streams caled the Six-Bulls, and about ■
the boundary line lately run between the I
interior countries of this territory anti ■
the Osage country. I
The Osages are aware of theintendei ■
attack, but cannot believe that they wii ■
be met by such a formidable force. I
As they always fight their pitch? ■
battles on horseback, it is probable the s *
will be defeated in that broken count",'*
they have chosen for tho combat.
