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 lotte, on the Bth #f July, was betrothed,' with extraordinary pomp, to his Imperial' Highness the Grind Duke Nicholas, af-| ter making her confession of faith, and partaking the sacrament, according to the Greek Church. The consul general of Fi ance, at Ams terdam, has published a notice, infor ming the merchants, that, according to orders which tie had received from ills government, no vessel coming from for-! eign countries will be admited in Sene gal, or in the dependences of that coun try. Paris papers were received in London to the 20th July. A very serious riot took place in one of the Paris Theatres, on the evening of the 27th, in which se veral were wounded. A great number of the riotous were attested and convey ed to the Prefecture. French funds, on the 29th of July, were as follows*—Five per cents, 68f 60f— Bank Stock, 13501’. American Stocks at L ondon, Aug. 2. Six per cents, 10r—Louisianna six per cents, 100. London, August 2. 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 foreign department; who retires, af ter having merited the reward which is 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.” Courier. 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.” Frankfort, July 8. Letters of a notification from the Ger manic Diet to all the powers of Europe, to the Grand /Seignior of Turkey, am TO T lE UNITED STATES, are to he dispatched before the r ecess. B) these the Germanic Confederation proposes to treat with the several states as European powers. 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 telligence received there by late arrivals from Cumana and Margarita, which our readers will perceive is in direct contra diction to what we published in our last relative to the successes of general Mo rillo. Under such circumstances we 'Mg l HIT " 1 ' '*j3L»l. : ~.. i ,ir. , ‘ ~ .’f. h^e experience.! muchjdifljcttlty { n tnig the posture of affairs on the .V-S„ 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 test paitofthelrforccstomeet the inva. d%s, who had introduced themselves by way of Arenas; after fortifying the height*, with some good corps, of reserve, the in dependents pushed forward towards the shore, posted them selves in ambush and suffered the enemy to advance unn.oieg. 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. “A barrel of corn is worth S 20 in Cuinana.” DOMESTIC. ~ 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.
