of tfieir country. Tlu'y are capable of great improvement, and under tlx* influence of a good example, when a change takes pi a e in their habits and manner of living, they bid fur to become useful and industrious citizens. The inhabitants of Cordova are said to be more superstitious, and more industrious, but less patriotic. This is piiucipally attributed to the loss of the trade with l’eru, occasioned by the evolutional v war. Tucuntun. I was informed, possessed an excel lent population. The people of Mando/.a, or Cnyo, are moral, industrious and patriotic. They nave sacrificed largely at the shrine of independence, support ing with zeal ami confidence, the cause ol their country ; whilst the citizens of Santa Fe are represented, as immoral and insubordinate, and manifesting, on most occasions, an extreme jeal ousy ol their neighbors. The population of Entre. Rios and Banda Ori ental is perhaps not inferior in valor to that ot lSuenos Avres. Nor is it deficient in military skill, particularly in carrying on a partizan war- f re. for which its troops arc admirably adapted. Their other good qualities have been probably somewhat impaired bv the system pursued in of tiie vaccina ami gratiacft, with k number of fi ie furs, afford valuable articles of exchange. • hose, with the foreign goods transported in eve ry direction from Buenos Ayres, very readily, by oxen and mules, which also furnish the means of carrying their native productions to their sea ports, form a I »,mch of trade ol immense magnitude, consiiiering the population ol the country. T heir exports arc calculated, with some degree of accuracy, at ten millions of dollars. These consist, principally, of ox hides, jerk heel, and tallow, the present great staples of the country. A variety ol furs ami peltries, some grain, cup per, mostly bro ght from Chili, with gold and silver in bullion and in coin, chiefly from the mines of Potosi. The imports are computed to be about equal to their exports. British manufactures form the principal mass; and they are to he bail in great abundance. They consist of woolen and cotton goods of every description: some of, them wi ought to imitate the manufactures of the country ; i- ronmungerv, cutlery, hardware, saddlery, hats, poi ter, ale, and cheese, are among the remninin FOREIGN. The Congress.—The following is a copy ol a private letter dated Ai x la-Chapelle, October 3, six o’clock, P.

Yesterday at noon, and at Cue end of the Fifth Cniilerrenec, the evacuation of France bv the Allied troops w as agreed upon. Count Cnraman, the ambassador ol trance at Vienna, was the hearer of this important amt pleasing intelligence to his sovereign, lliough I heard the news at an early hour tins morning. I could not obtain any details, or even learn the foundation on which it rested until now ; and was unwilling to agitate the English public by vague rumors, t he shortness of the time may plead my apology for sending you at prscent only a few particulars.

But this, perhaps, in their situation, was necessary. It provides that no citizen shall accept a title of nobility, without forfeiting the character of citizenship. It jn ovides. also, against general warrants, and the arrests of individuals, unless on probable pro if of guilt. It contains a salutary provision that a judge, having original jurisdiction, before taking cogniz ance of the cause, shall use all possible means of iecnnciling the parties. Tuis constitution i- but temporary. The congress are engaged in the ta-k of forming a pernunent one. In the mean ti e, no alteration can be made in tiie present, tn less with the consent of two thirds of the mem bers. In this manner some alterations have been adopted. The subject of a permanent constitution was before a committee of sixteen members of con- jrre.s. There was a difi’ereiice of opinion pre vailing among them, on the point of a confedera ted nr a consolidated government. II they should adopt the former, they will frame the constitu tion, in all probability, nearly after the model of that of the United States. Should they decide on the latter, it is highly probable they yvill in corporate the leading features of our system into their form of government. T ev seem tu concur in the proposition to have a chief magistrate elect ed for a term of years, and a representative le gislature, to consist of two branches. A senate, to constitute the most permanent hotly, and a bouse of representatives, whose term of service sha-l he of shorter duration. Perhaps it would be belter for them to delay the completion of this all important task, after the example of the United Slates, until a period ol peace. Their present provisional statute is an improvement on those which preceded it: amt yve mav expect their propo ed constitution will be still more perfect, as they advance in the Vi lowledge of those principles on which republi can governments are constituted. But, however free ill theory this provisional statute mav be, it is undoubtedly true. that, un less administered agreeably to its letter and spi- ri*. it will not afford security to the citizen.— ‘Whether any infractions have occurred since the date of its existence, I - annot pretend tovletei- mine, not being in lull possession of fuels. When we recollect that they have the benefit of our example, it may reasonably be expected that thev will, in general, adhere to their writ ten constitution. They have also the fatal result of the French revolution, warning them of the dangers ot its excesses, of which they appear to be sensible. The productions and the manufactures of the different provinces, will he found in appendix I); but I was unable to procure anv satisfactory esti mates of the probable value or amount in each province. There is, however, a considerable inter nal trade carried on in the interchange of various nrtii les between the several provinces: cattle, borsr s, and mules, furnish a considerable source ol barter; with the latter, Peru is usually sup- pli"i|; the Paraguay tea is a great article of trade throughout the country. The brandy, wine, rai sins, a d figs of Mendoza ,ir| d Sa.i Juan, are be- rwmiug important; the hides of Oxen, the skins ed, a thing unusual with us ; but thev have oii.i1-1 11 * t:, , e ' 1 mn ". i ' 1,1 nver ’ a ''«‘ «'»« "> 't hur led their public lauds, which, if a "prudent use!!, ed " Ul11 ‘ l " 1, '°" E'tice, in order tu close up be made of them, must, at no distant dav, be- j IU l ja=, ' ia kS e boats to toe ocean.
