The official news of the capture of Buenos

17th of Jnne. 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

under his command was 1,631* with 2 live
and a half inch howitzers, and z light 3
pounders. The Spimilh regular force con

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, •

Fat end Sc Brother 1
1 hat great and good man, the President
0 the United States, eftcems you, and your
p e op;e. 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
