For several days after the entry of what is" callrd the "federal parly, every tiring teemed to go on well; but, about the Ui of March, .gen.

alearce was invested with the pewersof

the dictatorship. Many of the best officers and n;ot ui-inriidied citizens, with two regiments and several sniallei boshes rf troops, went over to the federalists. On the 12th of March, the troops on Tvhom the dictator chiefly relied, left him,

and then he made his escaoe. At o o'

clock ou the same day, Saratea return

to his command, amidst the shouts of the, people TTp to the' 18th, many of the Tnrlizans of Pueyrredon, were arreted; tiut Balcarce, and eiht or nine others, wti'e iiot then tiken. Strong measures had been adopted -to preserve the public peace. Iut all these rcat changes were effected without bloodshed; and, at our last date, the 20th of MjvcIi, things appeared to be settling down into order. From the documents -publi- lied srtce the flight of Puevrredou, his whole administration appears to have hern a tissue o: corruption and deceit. It sceis th.d he, in conjunction with the late congress, had secretly formed, or w ere negotiating a treaty with France, for the reception d a kino: from the Uourhon famiiv, now-

ill Italy, the prince of Lucca ;n suppoit cf whom France was to advance 12 nril- . lions of livres, and Portugal te guarantee the me.usure, on a cession of the Oriental district. AH the members of congress, who signed the agreement lo have a king, were arrested, with the exception of three persons, who accompanied their .sigmture w ith a protest. It also appeared that Pueyrredon treacherously prevented the conquest of Upper Peru by San Martin, by throwing .impediments in his way. On tiie whole, he seems to have been as profligate a character trs ever was entrusted with the government ef a state. We are not able to gather what will be

the probable result of these commotions -.Vs! iiope for-the be?t, and wait patiently further advices. A time of public com--jlh tion is not that which is best fitted to :us.;:tiain truth. The general design, h.Kvever, appears. to be to cfciaVnsh a federal government on equitable principles to which the province of Buenos Ayres "tvill be a party, not the dictator, as heretofore We do not see why France should ha ye interfered in this matter, except, indeed, as has been observed, with the sole -7iew" of checking the-growth of repubJics.' It is said that the Portuguese had recently gained some considerable advantages over Artigas, and that he had been deserted byliis second in comnnnd-at the head of a considerable body of trocps.

From the Western Reserve Chronicle of

June 1. The following w as communicated by the Uev. Hauvky Cok, pastor of the Church in Vernon. IIORU1 1) 1 KANS ACTION". Sabbath, May 14, Philemon', Wil

liam, and'CvKUS, tte three sons and on

ly children of Mr. Ztiphna and Mrs. Lois

Stone, of -Kinsman, TnimbuK-conty, Ohio, were drowned, by the hand of their mother. The eldest was about 4 years

and G months old; and the youngest a-

bout eleven months, and yet at the breast.

These children were uncommonly-bright

and promising ; and a lond father doat

ed upon thei't with the most pleasing anticipations; but liis hope from a ri-

Uing family, and his prospects of domes

tic enjoyment, were all blasted in one day, in the most unexpected manner, and by an act the most unnatural. Mr. and Mrs, Stone were possessed

of amiable dispositions? had lived together in great harmony, were respected and

beloved by their acquaintance, and sus

tained an unblemished character. At

the commencement of the late revival of

religion in Kinsman, which was about the middle of February lant, Mrs. Stone was deeply impressed with a sense of herruiued condition as a sinner, and al

tera few days, expressed some hope that she' had experienced a change of heart. Soon, however, she relinquished all hope, became much dejected, and said she had committed the unpardonable sin. From that time she has seemed to be in a set

tled melancholy inclined to say but little, and verv timid. Her friends felt anxious respecting tl.o final result of this state of mind, yet did not apprehend that she wooid do violence'to herself or other. Some circumstances, however, now render it probable, that this most unnatural and horrid deed had previously occupied her mind. Not mauy days before, she asked her father if he thought such children would be happy alter death and was answered in the affirmative : & it is believed she thought it would be a kindness to her-children, and being impressed with the idea that she had com mitted the unpardonable sin, no injury to herself, to taka their lives.

Mr. Stone is a mechanic, and necessarily called from home the most of the time. She has been much in the habit of being alone with her children ; was during the day time, the week immediately preceding their death, and attended to her domestic concerns as usual ; Sabbath morning prepared breakfast for the family, was asked if she would not attend public worship, and replied, 'Xo. I cannot prepare myself and children in season and was left with her children without any suspicion. When Mr. Stone

and his hired man returned, in the after

noon, accompanied bv a friend, thev

found the breakfast tade standing as they left it, and Mrs. Sloaeand the chil

dren absent. Know ing her state of mind, he was not much alarmed till he inquired for her at the neighbors, supposing she had gouc where she could have com

pany. He returned accompanied by the ueiglibors, much alarmed, and soon fourd

her secreted in the chamber, greatly

frightened and agitated. He ueveral

time emfurrcd nf her for the children,

and ootained rtn answer, but at every

inquirvv'she would shudder. She became

helpless and was laid vpon abed. Mr.

atone looked fr his razor; it was mis
