There fell into the hands of the English 1,291,3>8 dollars, in fdverand bullion. General Bcrcsiord has ilfued a pro clamation as lieutenant governor. And promises to allow a free trade to all nations in amit/ with England, The trade of Huencs Ayrrs is to be put on the fame footing, by promise, as that of Trinidad. It was edimated that the merchandize in the king’s (lores, principal jcfuii’a hark and quick 111ver ; and what is in the Pl.tllipine compan>'s rlores; with the little that is retained of floating property ; would amount, if it could be disposed of, to between 2 and 3 millions of dollars. Os the bullion deli vered in, fume was claimed as jnivatc pro perty, and was to be icflored-and so of fume of the money,' Nine pieces of ordnance, whole bar rels of powder, z,*o 4 %»mu'keis wi,h bayo nets, 71 without bayonets, 616 carbines, 4,079 pillols, 31 mulkettoons, and 1,247 fwotds-.-were taken at Buenos Ayres,...

The Spimilh regular force con fided of 2000, and oppofttl the advance of the British a (hurt tiuie at the village of Reduction, and at the river Chnclo, at w hich latter place they had destroyed the bridge. Their fire wns always ill diicfled, and did little or no execution. . General Bercsford in one of his letters, fays, that after the passage of the river Chue lo, the city of Buenos remained at his mer ' cy, and that the only conditions on which he entered was as he pleaded to oiler. The coalling vessels relcafcd were valued at a million and a hall of dollars. ’fhc British had made an expedition 50 miles into the interior, had found the dilpoficions of the people favorable to the British, and had re covered confiderablc treafutc which persons were endeavoring to carry to Cordova. DEATH OF Mr. FOX. At a quarter before fix o’clock on Satur day afternoon, this great and illoftrious flatesman yielded his !aft breath in the arms of his nephew, lord Holland, His dilfolu tion was so gradual, and accompanied by so little ftruggfc, as scarcely to permit the mod anxious eye to afeerttin the instant. His friends had at least the fad and melancholy cotifolationof perceiving that he fuffered no pain—-and they had been prepared for the event, by the unerring symptoms of exhaus tion that had increased for the two days preceding. On Friday, at noon, thephyfi cisns announced to him the approaching elefe, and he received it as he had done in the firft instance, with that firm tranquility ol spirit which was charaClcriftic of his nature, and which he maintained to the last. Mr. Fox died at the very maroent when the Patk and Tower-guns were announcing the capture of Buenos Ayres. Mr. Fox was in his 58‘h year. He was tlecled to parliament before he was ol age, a died with the then ministers, and his full fpcech was against Wtikcs. He was often in and out of the ministry. There are vaiious reports as to who is to fuccccd Mr. Fox in the foreign department. Among thofc mentioned are the marquis Welleiley, lord Holland, and Mr. f. Gren ville. The last mentioned gentleman, it is generally thought, will be appointed. It is singular to remark the fatality that has fptcad among the leading men cf this country within the last twelve months, viz. marquis Cornwallis, Off. Lord Nclfon, Oft. 41. Mr. Pitt, )an. 23. Loid Thur low. Sept, 12. Mr. Fox, Sept, 13. The embarkation of troops for foreign lervices, is renewed with increafcd adtiviiy. On the fubjeft of the pending n goc it ons with France, we can fay nothing tun tier, than that eouriers arc continually paffiag between the two governments. KINGSTON, (jam) Oflober 18. Information has lately been received in this city, that there is every probability that the mock Emperor, of Hay ti, has by this time been deprived, not only ot his re gal honors, but his liie, and that his ptin cipal officers are no more. The circumftsn ecs which led to this event appear to be these —lnfatiable of blood, Dcflaiines has taken the refoiuMon of making the remaining peo ple of color fiitifer the fame cruelties which had been, on former occasions, inflifled up on the unhappy white inhabitants, of that unfortunate colony. Having formed this diabolical project, he visited his dominions from North to South, in order tb divide the molt efficatious means of carrying his plan into execution, and, having arrived at Ti buron, h« ordered the Mulata Chief, who commanded there, to be put to death. This unexpected circumftancc was, it feemj, only the lignal for the mafiT.it rc of all the < fficers ot that defeription in the southern depart ment ; but his intentions having been difeo. ycred, were ccmplely fruitrated, and there is every realon to believe that be has in turn Iwcome the vitflim of his own sanguinary projects. During these tranfaftiors in the South, Geo. Chrittophe, it appears, availed hira felt of the difeoments that prevailed among the tro jps on account of their not being re gularly paid, and seized on the treafurcs of Deflalincs, which he dillributed among the troops generally, and it is supposed, that by this artful conduct, Chrittophe will faceted to the Chiefcommand of that unhappy coun try, • Natchez, October si.

Like the rising fun that gives light promote the happtnefs of all mankind ; he is particularly folicitcus to better the condi tion of his Red children ; he withes them to know war no more; to live in peace with all their neighbors; to pursue the deer in fafety ; to cultivate their litelc fields of com without fear, and that no enemy Ihould dis turb their lleep at night. Such, Brothers ate the sentiments of the great American Chief ; you have before heard his word) from the month of his Agent (Doctor Sibley, and 1 hope you have nut forgotten them. Brother I There arc fomc men, whole tongues are like the tongues oflhakcg; they talk much, and often lpc;-k that which is not true.— Diltruft the man who would tell you, that the President of the United States was not your friend ; the man who would fay so, has a forked tongue, and tells lies. Brother! Let your people continue to hold the A mericana by the b ind with fmcerity and in friendfiap, and the chain of peace will be bright and strong ; our children will fmokc together, and the path will never be colored with blood. Brother ! The President of the United Statca is the friend of peace ; but he fear* not war. The time was, many years past, when a mighty King, who lives beyond the big water, made war upon ihc Americans, and lent his war ;iors to conquer our country ; many battles were fought, and much blood was spilled ; the Americans were then few in number, but fought with bravery, and the warriors of that great King were forced to return to their own land, We were then a young people, but have now grown tip to manhood, and could fttike an enemy with a heavier band, and a ftrongcr arm. Brother i The President of the United States is just to all nations; but if a nation is unjull to his people, his own warriors can fight bis battles ; you have leen but a (mall number of these warriors ; they are spread over an imrnenfc traCf of country ; f< me live where the fr.ow leklonn falls, and others, where armies can cross rivers upon the ice. Brother! We have some difputc about the limits of Louisiana : the Americans fappole that the limits extend far towards the tertirg fun; hut our neighbors the Spaniards, tell us, fl at a little diy ba>au, .which you palled yellcr day, is the line. Brotherl You know we got the country from the Ftenth, and that the Americans now claim ail the land which the Frtnch formerly pof felfcd, You aw an older man. Brother, than I anj, and most know something of the matter:—You have seen the places where the French built forts, and planted corn; ycur buhers knew well the French, and
